Elite men's time travel through ancient times

Seeing Liu Yuyan eating with gusto, Brother Guan, who was hugging her leg, became impatient, "Mother, Brother Guan wants it!"

But Liu Yuyan turned a deaf ear and continued to savor, holding the skirt with one hand as usual to prevent her son from dragging it off.Brother Guan saw that his mother didn't care about him, so he felt aggrieved immediately. He still knew how to file a complaint. Pointing at Liu Yuyan with his little finger, he yelled at Lin Mozhu aggrievedly: "Mother is bad~"

Lin Mozhu suppressed a smile, and coaxed: "Guan Ge, be good, godfather will peel it for you." As he said that, he broke one from the basket, peeled it and handed it to Guan Ge who couldn't wait.

Grabbing his favorite banana, Brother Guan didn't even want his mother, he staggered to Lin Mozhu, and leaned his chubby body against his lap.Lin Mozhu hugged him with a smile, and followed Liu Yuyan into the house.

Liu Yuyan has a bright personality, and Lin Mozhu didn't mince words with her, and told her why she came after sitting down.Hearing Lin Mozhu mention Mrs. Lian from the Third Prince's Mansion, Liu Yuyan rolled her eyes in disdain: "It's just a concubine, yet she dares to throw a banquet to entertain guests after her birthday? You heard Boss Yang's right, don't talk to her. "

The concubine of the prince is also a concubine. To put it bluntly in this world, a concubine is a servant who serves the master. She also signs a contract of sale, and the master can buy and sell at will.Among the famous families, if a concubine's room is allowed to entertain guests, it will not only be an insult to the guests, but also make people laugh and have no rules.This Madam Lian's so-called "birthday banquet" is probably to set up a few tables at random in the mansion to entertain concubines from other mansions who have been friends with each other on weekdays.

"That Mrs. Lian, the third concubine took her out to socialize. I've seen her once or twice. She looks pretty nice, and she greets everyone with a smile. It's just that she comes from a merchant, and everyone doesn't think highly of her. "

As Liu Yuyan said, she stuffed the remaining piece of banana into her mouth, chewed and swallowed it, and then continued slowly: "Who in Beijing doesn't know the purpose of the third prince marrying her? I'm probably sending you a post this time." It's not a good thing, you don't need to pay attention to it. Now everyone knows that Boss Yang is backed by the prince and the prince, and she is as small as a wife, so she dare not mess with you."

After hearing what Liu Yuyan said, Lin Mozhu finally breathed a sigh of relief.He came to the capital for the first time and grew up in the countryside since he was a child. He really didn't know how to deal with these powerful people. He was not afraid of anything else, but he was afraid that a mistake would cause trouble for Yang Fan.After confirming that this "Mrs. Lian" was a small person and could not cause trouble to Yang Fan, Lin Mozhu completely threw the invitation aside.

Although Liu Yuyan was careless on weekdays, after all, she grew up in the Hou Mansion, and she was quite sensitive to these things under the influence of her ears and eyes.She was right, Mrs. Lian really had a purpose in posting to Lin Mozhu.The third prince married her, just as the outside world guessed, for the sake of money.Not only the whole Yang family understands this point, but she is even more aware of it.So when she married into the Prince's Mansion, she brought a huge dowry. For this reason, the Third Prince loved her very much.

Mrs. Lian Yang is a smart person. She knows why she is favored by the third prince. If she can't continue to create value for the third prince, then the third prince's love for her will be short-lived.So she used her status as a wife to make friends with the wives and concubines of those rich gentry merchants, and through them to recruit those rich gentry merchants.What she did was similar to Zhao Lei's, but her method was better than Zhao Lei's, and it really brought a lot of benefits to the Third Prince.

Because of her role, the third prince loved her very much, and even the third prince and concubine treated her differently, and took her with him to several banquets.This time for her birthday, the third prince rewarded her with a few tables of banquets, and asked her to entertain the sisters who were friends with her on weekdays and have fun together.Yang took the opportunity to mention to the third prince that he wanted to entertain the family members of several big merchants in Beijing.Yang Fan has been making a big splash in Beijing in the past two months, so Lin Mozhu was naturally on her banquet list.

The purpose of entertaining Lin Mozhu is also very simple, just like Zhao Lei entertained Yang Fan back then, it was all to attract Yang Fan to be used by the Third Prince.Although Yang Shi had heard that Yang Fan and King Ning had a good relationship, she believed that no one would give up the prosperous third prince and choose King Ning who was suppressed by the emperor and queen mother.Especially Yang Fan is still a businessman, no one knows businessman better than her, he only cares about profit.As long as there is interest, there is no business that cannot be negotiated.

It's just that no matter how good the idea is, if people don't arrive, everything will be in vain.An invitation card, but the reply was that he was ill and could not come to congratulate him, and he politely sent a jade pendant as a congratulatory gift.

Seeing Mrs. Yang frowning at the jade pendant in the brocade box, and the maid who followed her to marry into the prince's mansion, she said unhappily: "Ma'am, this Mrs. Yang is so ignorant. She is just a lowly female man. Madam treats him because she thinks highly of him." , he actually dared to refuse, obviously he didn't..."

"Ruju." Yang interrupted the servant girl disapprovingly, "I have told you many times that you must be cautious in your words and deeds here, if you continue to speak out like this, I will have no choice but to send you home .”

"It's... Ma'am." The maid stopped aggrieved.

The nanny at the side saw it and reprimanded her: "Madam is teaching you for your own good. If you don't correct this problem and cause trouble someday, Madam will not be able to protect you."

After training the servant girl, the nanny turned her head and said to Yang Shi: "Ma'am, although the girl Ruju speaks a little out of proportion, there is a little

She was right.This Mrs. Yang is indeed arrogant, and she doesn't take you seriously. "

"Of course I know that." Yang sighed, "But he has the capital to be arrogant." Yang Fan has only been in Beijing for two or three months, who hasn't heard of Zhiwei Tea House and Zhiwei Restaurant?After people inquired about some of his deeds in Chihu County, Yang could not but lament that this man is a genius.If she could recruit this person for the third prince, not only would the third prince be even more powerful, but it would also be beneficial to her in many ways.Think about the benefits that Yang Fan can bring by surrendering, so what if he is just a little wronged at this time?

After thinking for a while, Mrs. Yang told the nurse: "Nurse, ask Ah Fu to find out where Mrs. Yang usually goes."

"Yes, madam.''

Lin Mozhu, who had already thrown Madam Lian aside, didn't know that she was still thinking about him. The next day after returning from Prince Ning's Mansion, he and Yang Fan went to a mountain villa in the suburbs of Beijing to escape the summer heat.

Yandang Mountain is half a day's journey from Beijing. Although it is a bit far away, it is much cooler in summer than central Beijing, and it is a summer resort.Moreover, the land near Yandang Mountain is fertile, and there is a long river running through it, which is very suitable for growing rice.The Beiyue Kingdom is located in the northern part of the Central Plains. Except for some land in Chihu County and the bordering Mohe County that is suitable for rice cultivation, most of the other places grow staple foods such as sorghum, wheat, and millet.Because of the scarcity of rice, white rice is the most expensive in the north.

Although the Zhuangzi Yang Fan bought was only a hundred acres, most of it was paddy fields.This season is when the rice is earing, and the endless rice fields are quite spectacular as far as the eye can see.

After the villa was transferred to Yang Fan, he didn't make a big move, and asked people to simply repair and tidy up the original house.It was almost lunch time when they arrived at Zhuangzi, and Zhuangtou said politely that his wife had asked the kitchen to cook food.

"Then let someone bring it up, let's eat first."

After Yang Fan gave his orders, after Qingyu and the others put their luggage in the room, a woman in her forties led two peasant women to bring up meals.They are all ingredients that are available in the farm, such as chicken, duck and fish, and they are made into seven or eight dishes and put on a table.Yang Fan and Lin Mozhu sat down to eat, and asked Qingyu and the others to go to the kitchen for lunch.

The cooking skills of the farmers are not very good, Yang Fan and Lin Mozhu are not very hungry, they put down the bowls and chopsticks after a few mouthfuls and some soup.The dishes on the table didn't move much, Yang Fan asked Zhuangtou to distribute these dishes to the tenants in the Zhuangzi.

"By the way, ask them to come over in the afternoon, I will recognize them."

When Yang Fan took over the Zhuangzi, he also took over the tenants in the Zhuangzi. These tenants, including the head of the Zhuangzi, knew the Zhuangzi better than him. As long as they had no major problems, Yang Fan would not easily replace them.

This Zhuangtou is the son of the original Zhuangzi's owner's family, and their family's deed of sale was transferred to Yang Fan along with Zhuangzi.Having just experienced being sold, Zhuangtou's family was terrified, fearing that they would not be pleased by the new owner, so they responded positively to Yang Fan's orders.

should.

After lunch, Yang Fan and Lin Mozhu went out for a walk when they saw that the sun was covered by the clouds and the breeze was blowing gently.Because it was lunch time, there was no one in the field at this time, and the two walked along the country road.Walking to the paddy field, looking at the gurgling canal, Yang Fan had a sudden thought: "Is there any snails in this field?"

Stir-fried escargot is a very good appetizer.When he was in Jinxiu Villa, every year after Qingming, when the snails were plump, he would send people to the fields to pick up some snails.Stir-fry a plate of snails, open a jar of wine, drink some wine with the breeze blowing, and take a sip of spicy and delicious snails, it tastes delicious.

"Should there be?" Lin Mozhu replied. Just as he finished speaking, a clear and clear voice came: "Who are you? What are you doing?"

The two looked over in response to their reputation, and saw a boy in his teens, wearing patched clothes, with a pair of bright eyes on his tanned face, looking at them vigilantly.

Yang Fan put his hands behind his back and replied, "I am the master of Zhuangzi."

The young man probably didn't expect to get this answer, he was stunned, and then remembered that his parents had told him many times today, saying that the new owner of Zhuangzi would come to live for a while.Looking at the smooth material and gorgeous patterns of the clothes on Yang Fan and Lin Mozhu, they are indeed not clothes that ordinary people can afford.

After hesitating for a moment, the young man bowed to the two of them unskillfully, "I've seen my boss." His tone was full of uneasiness.

Yang Fan is not a person who would embarrass children, he smiled and asked, "What's your name?"

"Go back to my master, the younger one is called Tie Zi."

The children in the country are all bastards and dogs, and few of them have serious names.Yang Fan waved to the young man named Tie Zi, and continued to ask: "Tie Zi, are there any snails in this field?"

1—Chapter [-] Zhuangzi

In summer, the cicadas chirp loudly in the countryside, the breeze blows past, and green waves appear in the fields one after another.On a field ridge, conversations could be heard from time to time.

"Tiezi, here's another one."

"Boss, use your thumbs to pinch its head firmly."

"Wow... this one is big!"

In the rice field, Yang Fan and his boy Wang Side had a great time picking up snails and catching loaches.

"Look, Mozhu! I picked up a very big snail!"

As if he had found a treasure, Yang Fan straightened up and waved to Lin Mozhu, who was standing on the ridge of the field offering the treasure.Lin Mozhu smiled brightly at him.Yang Fan didn't want him to go to the field, so he helped look at the shoes on the ridge.

After a while, a roar suddenly came from not far away, interrupting their play time.

"Tiezi, you brat, how many times have you told not to go to the fields to harm the rice seedlings! Let's see if your father doesn't break your dog legs!" A thin woman with dark and rough skin came trotting angrily from the end of the road.

"Mother..." Tie Zi, who was still smiling, immediately changed his face, and stood in the field in fear.

"This sister-in-law." Seeing this, Yang Fan quickly explained: "Don't scold Tie Zi, I asked him to help catch the loach."

The woman seemed to have just realized that there was an outsider, she looked at Yang Fan and then at Lin Mozhu in surprise.

In this world, under normal circumstances, a person's status can be judged from his clothes.Just as Tiezi judged from Yang Fan and Lin Mozhu's clothes that they were indeed the boss, the woman also thought of their identities.In the morning, Zhuangtou told them that the new owner was coming to Zhuangzi, and just now their family was given a bowl of chicken given by the owner.Seeing that her son didn't come home for dinner, she secretly left him a chicken leg.

The woman clutched her clothes cautiously, and it took a while to react and salute Yang Fan and Lin Mozhu: "I've seen my boss..."

Yang Fan grabbed Lin Mozhu's hand, borrowed his strength to get up from the field, and then waved to the woman: "You don't need to be polite."

Seeing Yang Fan go ashore, the child hurried up too.

At this time, the sun emerged from the thick clouds, and the sunlight with scalding temperature shone down.Lin Mozhu glanced at the snails in the taro leaves, and said to Yang Fan, "Brother Yang, that's enough, let's go back."

Yang Fan nodded, squatting by the paddy field and using the water from the field to wash off the dirt on his hands and feet, then took the handkerchief from Lin Mozhu to wipe off the water drops, and put on his shoes and socks again.

Seeing that Yang Fan and the others were about to leave, Tie Zi hurriedly handed over a large bunch of clay tenders strung together with grass stalks in his hand: "Boss! This is for you!"

you. "

Yang Fan took it with a smile, "Thank you."

Standing aside, Lin Mozhu took out his purse from his pocket, grabbed a handful of copper coins and gave it to the young man: "This is a thank you gift for you."

The young man didn't dare to accept it, he glanced cautiously at Yang Fan and then at his mother, the woman was more nervous than her son, her head was in a mess at the moment, she didn't notice her son's expression at all.

Yang Fan smiled and said, "Take it."

After hesitating for a moment, the boy reached out to take the copper coin from Lin Mozhu.The ten-year-old boy was still a child, he was thin and small, and his hands were not big. He had to hold the handful of copper coins with both hands to hold them together.Looking at the money in his hand, the boy's eyes became brighter and brighter.

"Thank you, my boss!"

When Yang Fan and Lin Mozhu walked away, the young man handed the copper coin in front of the woman: "Mother, here it is!" The voice was clear and excited.

Seeing her sensible son, the woman's eyes couldn't help but turn red.Taking the money carefully, the woman carefully put it in her purse, then remembered something, and said to her son: "When you go back, don't tell your grandma about this, do you understand?"

"Mother, don't worry, I understand."

Unaware of the conversation between the mother and child behind them, Yang Fan and Lin Mozhu returned to the house and handed the snails and mud to the two maids.Yang Fan also said to Qiuyue: "I made the snail at night, just fry it." The snails I just picked up need to be put in water for two days to spit out sand, and I can't eat them yet.If it is tender, half a day is enough.

"Yes." Qiuyue replied, and sent the snails and ninnen they brought back to the kitchen.

Not long after Yang Fan and the others came back, Zhuangtou brought the tenants from the Zhuangzi over.This Zhuangzi is not big, and there are only twelve tenants in total. The purpose of Yang Fan seeing them is to identify them, and tell these tenants that the Zhuangzi has changed owners now, and they need to re-sign the land lease agreement.

"The lease agreement has to be re-signed, and I want to take back part of the land and not rent it out." The purpose of Yang Fan buying this village is to grow greenhouse vegetables and supply restaurants.He didn't mince words with these tenants, and he said straightforwardly that he wanted to take back the land.

At this moment, the tenants were all overwhelmed, and they all panicked like the sky was falling.These tenants lived by renting the Zhuangzi's land. Although the rent was high and the food left was only enough for their whole family, they would not starve to death.If the land was taken back now, it would be tantamount to cutting off their family's way of life.

Seeing that the tenants wanted to kneel down and beg Yang Fan to let them continue planting, although the head of the village was also pale and flustered by Yang Fan's sudden outburst, he forced himself to calmly raise his voice and shouted: "Quiet! Listen to the boss!"

Seeing this, Yang Fan's eyes flashed with admiration.When the tenants gradually calmed down, Yang Fan couldn't help but feel a little sad when he saw the pair of despairing or expecting eyes.He didn't hold back, and said directly: "I will take back at least half of the land, and the specific amount will be determined later. The rest of the land will be re-measured and allocated to you to continue planting. As for the part of the land I took back, although it is not I will continue to lease it to you, but I still need you to cultivate the land.”

Yang Fan's words rekindled the hope of the tenants, and they all looked at him.

"To put it bluntly, I have the final say on how to plant the returned land. You just pay me for the work. I will pay the wages according to the market price, and I will not deduct you. Whoever does it Well, I still have a reward,"

Hearing what Yang Fan said, even Zhuangtou's pale face turned bloody, and the tenants heaved a sigh of relief.

After notifying this important event, Yang Fan asked all the tenants to go back, leaving only Zhuangtou, and then told him in detail about Zhuangzi's work arrangement plan in the future.

The first thing to do is to build a greenhouse.Of Zhuangzi's nearly 20 mu of land, [-] to [-] mu of land are paddy fields. Now that the rice has just set ears, the paddy fields must not be moved.For the remaining [-] mu of land, we can arrange to build greenhouses first.The masters who built the greenhouses were also transferred from Chihu County, and they are all experienced masters.Yang Fan gave a wage of [-] Wen a day, and hired Zhuangzi's tenants to help build the greenhouse.The wages are settled daily, and there is also a meal at noon, two dishes, one meat and one vegetarian, and big steamed buns to keep you full.

The tenants who were anxious because Yang Fan wanted to take back the land were immediately relieved to see him so generous.I am also worried that Yang Fan will not hire them to do things, and they will work very hard when they work.

The construction of the greenhouse is in full swing outside, but Yang Fan's life in the house is very leisurely.Every day, he would wander here and there in Zhuangzi, or stay in the yard with Lin Mozhu to read and write.

The weather was bad that day, it started to rain at noon.Rainy weather is cooler, but it also makes it very inconvenient to go out.There are no modern asphalt and cement roads, and the roads here are at best paved with a layer of cobblestones. If you go out on a rainy day, your shoes and trousers will definitely be splashed with mud.

Unable to go out on a rainy day, Yang Fan took out a script, and read together while leaning on the rocking chair under the corridor with Lin Mozhu in his arms.Knowing that Lin Mozhu loves watching operas and listening to books, Yang Fan asked people to collect a lot of story books and story books for him.When he was free, he watched it with Lin Mozhu, and the two of them expressed their opinions while watching.

What they are reading today is a miscellaneous folk tale that they don't know where to find it.It is said that there is a clever woman in a certain place who has excellent craftsmanship and can make many kinds of dim sum.The husband of a clever woman is a lazy man, who eats food, is lazy, and does not work.So the clever woman can only show her face, and go out to sell the dim sum she made every day to support her family.The husband didn't appreciate his wife's hard work. Instead, he took the money earned by the clever woman to find fun with the widow in the village.Because the clever woman married into the family and did not give birth for three years, the husband wanted to divorce the clever woman and marry another after the widow became pregnant.

Yang Fan saw that in order to save her husband, the clever woman actually went back to her mother's house to borrow money for her husband to marry a widow to become an ordinary wife, and everyone praised the clever woman for her virtuousness.I couldn't help but complain: "What kind of broken book is this?"

As he spoke, he wanted to throw the book in his hand, but Lin Mozhu quickly grabbed it: "Don't throw it, I think it's very interesting."

Yang Fan was surprised, "Interesting?" What's so interesting?Women are weak, men are hateful, and the world is stupid.

"Look here, it's said that the widow behaves badly, and she has a head and tail with many men in the village. And here, it's said that the widow is three months pregnant but her belly is as big as a pot, and her clothes can't cover it." Lin Mozhu pointed to the book In several places, he continued to say to Yang Fan: "The master said that it is not all the woman's fault that a couple has had no children for many years."

"And here." Speaking of getting up, Lin Mozhu turned to another page, and continued: "It is said that when Qiaofu first married, there was a mother-in-law at home. The mother-in-law treated her very badly, and beat her or scolded her. Let her go to the fields in the hot summer, and let her do laundry in the cold winter. Qiaofu is very filial, and every time she comes back from selling snacks, she will bring delicious food to her mother-in-law... There is also a place here, which says that Qiaofu's business is very good this day and sells for a hundred dollars , brought some sesame seed cakes to my mother-in-law when I came home. The mother-in-law brought the sesame seed cakes back to the house, but didn’t come out for dinner. The next day, when the clever woman came into the house and asked her to eat, she found that she was dead.' Foaming at the mouth, black and purple lips, bloody eyes and ears, and a horrific death, the book says that she was punished by the heavens because of her unkindness, but this is clearly the state of death that occurs after poisoning."

Yang Fan listened to Lin Mozhu's words clearly and logically, opened the book and looked carefully at the places he pointed out, and found that it was true.Sure enough, he didn't read it seriously enough, so he didn't find anything interesting in the book?Or is it that the black bamboo in their family has a keen sense of touch that is different from ordinary people, and it is a

Detective material?
