The general's wife is sick

"I have never heard of it, I have never seen it!" The shock in Zhang Shilang's eyes lingered for a long time.

Zhou Shilang's face was full of dirt, and he was far more shocked than Zhang Shilang, "I just feel a wave of heat rushing towards my face. This little thing has such great power. It's really...you can't judge by appearance?"

Zhang Shilang: "..."

Ji Liu smiled, "The appearance of gunpowder bombs is also extremely accidental. The two adults have won the trust of the emperor. Please report back to the emperor what you saw with your own eyes. It is the duty of a minister to be loyal to the emperor and love the country. I believe the two adults want to see it too." In a flourishing Chang'an dynasty, although the future is bumpy and the road is difficult and dangerous, every person with lofty ideals will do their best."

Zhang Shilang bowed seriously, "Young Madam has great ambitions, she is a rare talent, I shouldn't question Young Madam because of my personal prejudice, please forgive me, I am deeply ashamed .”

"Master Zhang, you don't need to mention the past." This Master Zhang is also a talent, he can correct his mistakes, he can bend and stretch, and Emperor Xuande is lucky to have such an upright official in the court.

After seeing the gunpowder bombs, the hearts of the two servants were throbbing uncontrollably, but now they see that even a twin has patriotism and loyalty to the emperor, and a patriotic feeling rises from the heart from the inside out.

"General Xiong protects his family and defends the country and guards the frontiers. The young lady assists and benefits the common people. The two of you are truly a blessing to the people of Northwest China!"

Ji Liu hastily interrupted Zhang Shilang, and if he didn't organize him anymore, he was afraid that this lord would lose his mind, and he was full of embarrassment when he heard the praise of Yi Shui'er, "You two lords have worked hard, I let someone stay at the table in Bazhen at noon , and invite the two adults to taste the special dishes of Northwest China."

Xiong Jinghai said lightly at this time, "I want to eat spicy rabbit meat."

"Then let Master Li, the back chef, add another dish. The adult rabbits in the rabbit farm have basically produced almost the same in the past few days. It seems that there may be a period of time in the future. Rabbit meat will not be produced."

Ji Liu also answered the conversation naturally. Fortunately, he was witty and asked people to control the number of spicy dishes made. Otherwise, with the people's love for chili, the supply would be in short supply even if the ingredients were piled up and vomiting blood. Also decreases at a rate visible to the naked eye.

"You raise some more!" Xiong Jinghai said to the two servants on purpose, "I still want to eat chicken and duck."

"If you can raise me, I would have done it earlier. Why wait for you to mention it? It's just that the winter in the northwest is cold and the time is long. Chickens and ducks can't grow thick fur like rabbits, so they can easily die in batches in winter. Can’t they raise them until autumn and kill them collectively for meat?” Ji Liu has already considered raising other livestock, but there are already cattle, sheep and rabbits here, and it would cost manpower and material resources to raise other animals, the cost performance is too low, not worth it, not all The rewards are like chili peppers.

Zhang Shilang really took the bait, "Bazhenju is the property of the young lady?"

Seeing that the topic was brought up to Ji Liu again, Xiong Jinghai retired, hiding his achievements and fame.

Dare to look down on Ji Liu, the person he holds in the palm of his hand is something that others can say at will!

"It's just a small shop, the two adults don't dislike it."

Zhou Shilang, who couldn't speak for a long time, said, "General, Young Madam, Zhou also wants to visit the winery and oil workshop that Young Madam built."

"If you want to go, you have to eat first." Xiong Jinghai put his cloak around Ji Liu's shoulders, "My lords, get on your horse and go back to the city!"

In the evening, Tang Junyi brought Xu Fan to the General's Mansion for dinner. During the dinner, Tang Junyi said, "I still want to vent my anger on you, why did you forgive him?"

Ji Liu asked back, "Zhang Shilang is the Northwest inspector appointed by the emperor, are you really willing to offend him for me?"

Anyway, Zhang Shilang had already bowed his head to admit his mistake, Tang Junyi showed no fear, and said with a straight face, "It is inevitable, what is the relationship between you and me, how can a mere servant be able to compare! Besides, if you ignore me, you can still argue three points, if you reason with me Of course you have to hold on to him, how dare he look down on you, I am very angry!"

I knew that Tang Junyi was not talking about the door, but Ji Liu still gave him a chopstick of spicy stewed chicken drumsticks, "Thank you, I know you are good to me, but there is no need, they come to the northwest to represent the emperor's face , Offending them will do no good."

But Ji Liu's earnest thanks came from Ji Liu's earnest thanks. Tang Junyi suddenly lost his temper. It was rare for him to sit down at a loss. timid.

"Suddenly thank me for what I did, I just said and didn't do it."

Xu Fan looked at Tang Junyi's red ears, and felt really funny in his heart. Only Ji Liu could cure him since childhood.

"You are a businessman, and the entire Tang family stands behind you. Don't conflict with those in power over anything."

"I know, I know."

In the next few days, Zhang Shilang let go of his preconceived ideas, and together with Zhou Shilang went back and forth to visit the workshops in Yingkou.

Many workshop owners said that their workshops were established with the support of the General's Mansion, and almost everyone here is full of hope for life.

In the past, people who said that the poor mountains and rivers in the Northwest were troublemakers probably didn't know. If the common people had enough to eat and warm clothes, who would sit around doing nothing all day long, making troubles and doing all the heresy?

Because of the incompetence of local officials, Northwest China has long shown itself to be poor, and the people complained even more, and they lived in dire straits. In the final analysis, it was the fault of the ruling officials.Since ancient times, the common people have looked forward to Mingjun, just to make their lives better.

Now, under the governance of Xiong Jinghai and his wife, Yingkou has changed the world and developed rapidly. The daily wages of many small workshops are settled daily, and the people are writing copper coins in their hands. .

Another point that made the two lords even more concerned was that after eating the meal at Bazhenju, the two lords had the audacity to rub it on the dining table of the General's Mansion.

Seeing the two lord servants, Tang Junyi was enthusiastic and slick, and Zhou Shilang who coaxed him praised him repeatedly.

Ji Liu looked disheveled, and Xiong Jinghai disassembled the rabbit legs for Ji Liu indifferently, "Eat more."

Xu Fan was also very embarrassed. After the meal, Tang Junyi, who personally sent off the servant, was very calm, "Liu Er, didn't you say that it is unnecessary to offend them? I thought about it carefully, and I think you are right! That's why I tried my best." Build a good relationship with them, maybe in the future, when this contact will be useful, don't you think so?"

"Now, disappear from under my nose, immediately, immediately!"

The next day, the big and small workshops had already been turned around, and the two adults came to Yingkou Academy.

This is Master Sima's territory, Ji Liu was worried about having a side branch, so he accompanied Dai Mengyun, Xiong Jinghai didn't like going to the academy, so he hid early.

Inside the academy, Zhou Shilang looked in amazement. Ji Liu mixed modern teaching with the education of the Chang'an Dynasty, taking the essence and discarding the dross. The classrooms are spacious and bright, and the learning atmosphere between students and teachers is excellent.

He noticed that there were five signs hanging on a row of shelves next to the classroom, "Young Madam, what is this?"

After a few days, the two adults admired Ji Liu, but Dai Mengyun was put aside.

"This is the ranking." Ji Liu took down the first sign, "Every time a test is taken, the teachers of each subject will make a sign with the names of the top five. If you accumulate more, you will be rewarded."

Zhang Shilang asked, "What kind of reward?"

Ji Liudao, "Books, pens, inks, paper and inkstones, or a piano are of little value, but this is a very good incentive, and it is only awarded to the top five. harm."

After seeing the indoors, everyone turned to the outdoors. When Master Sima was just starting to prepare, this was originally a private school, but now because of the large number of students and the large area, it has been changed to an academy.

"This is a racecourse, where three people can learn how to ride a horse at a time. When there is a real competition or test, the master will directly take the students to the grassland. This is the piano room. In addition to the piano, the students here have to learn the flute and flute at the same time. , chimes and erhu, etc., because there are many kinds of musical instruments, after a rough contact with all the musical instruments, one or more musical instruments must be selected, and then there will be a special teacher to teach, but after the selection, there will be a test. Continue to study, so students are more cautious at present, and there is no situation of few-to-many.”

Along the way, Ji Liu introduced, "This is a library, and there are few talents in the Northwest, so the books here are open to students for free."

"Earlier, I heard from Master Dai that the Young Madam also wrote a few articles on the Art of War?"

"Those are not considered tactics of war, they are just formations that were used to cooperate with the Iron Beast's attack. If the two adults don't dislike it, you can take a closer look."

When several people passed by a classroom, they found that the students inside were piled up in twos, checking each other's pulse. Ji Liu hurriedly stretched out his hand, "This is the medicine class, and the art of war is in the front."

"Liu'er!"

Master Sima looked up and saw Ji Liu was about to run away, so he shouted to stop him.

"Master." Seeing that he couldn't escape, Ji Liu turned his head and saluted, "Did you interrupt Master's teaching?"

After Master Sima built the academy, he seldom saw Ji Liu on weekdays. He was always busy with things, and would stay with the children at home when he wasn't busy with foreign affairs. There were very few opportunities to catch him.

"It's okay, come, come with Master!" Sima Jun's serious old face only smiled when he saw Ji Liu.All the students watching were amazed, and Dean Sima actually laughed!

"Young Madam!" The students saluted and greeted.

"Have you started learning to feel the pulse today?" Ji Liu was amazed, these students are making such rapid progress?

Sima Jun dragged his feet unceremoniously, "They are still far from learning how to feel the pulse. Two of them haven't even finished reading "Complete Herbs". They are really far behind you!"

The two students mentioned lowered their heads, and Ji Liu smiled. It is rare for Master Sima to pass on his own medical skills to others. This pure way of teaching knowledge was greatly resisted by him at first, but he opened up a few sessions of medicine. After the class, Master Sima fell into obsession, and the eager eyes of the students greatly encouraged him.

Therefore, Master Sima brought over the same set of training Ji Liu, but under his high-pressure policy, few students could persevere, and two of them were fainted by his fright in front of the class. , Only then has today's decent teaching atmosphere.
