The return of the Zhang family touched many people's hearts.
The officials and officials in the Yamen of Sanshui County tried to come over and have a look, and so did the common people.
But as the Chinese New Year is approaching, officials simply can’t spare the time. They still have to give things to the poorest families in Sanshui County. The poor people are no longer natives of Sanshui County. They all come from other places. A native of Sanshui County.
When Zhang Zhong came back this time, in addition to bringing back good local products, he also brought three dried fish from ships, dried fish from marine fish, and very large ones. Everyone in Sanshui County would eat one piece per family and eat three to five. There is no problem with heaven.
It's just that it was under the order of the court in name. In fact, everyone knew that the court would not let Zhang Zhong go back and send fish to ordinary people.
A sea fish is not expensive. Even if it’s a bit far from the sea, you can buy a large sea fish for a hundred and ten cents. The local people mainly felt Zhang Zhong’s intentions and came back from Luzhou with Everything is more profitable than hairtail, but Zhang Zhong still pretends to be fish and returns to send it from house to house.
The people knew what was going on and didn't say anything in their hearts, for fear of causing trouble to the Zhang family. They all knew that Sanshui County was the world of the Zhang family. Zhang Zhong wanted to rebel and there was absolutely no problem.
Zhang Zhong also understands that everyone is watching his every move in Sanshui County. After all, Sanshui County is too important. It has a special craftsman college, controls a river, and increases the production of food crops, plus the annual tax revenue. The problem is that Sanshui County simply cannot place its own people. To be an official in Sanshui County, it needs the approval of the local people. The officials and people who have just arrived don’t understand it. They must first Do things that are good for the people.
In addition to this road, the other one is naturally what Zhang Zhong meant. Even if the people have selected the officials, Zhang Zhong can be exempted with a single sentence, otherwise, don't want to receive so much taxation in the past.
Among them were the people sent by Li Longji. He was also afraid. The Zhang family’s skills are too great. If they want to rebel, it is estimated that the people who suppress the chaos will have to fight in Yaozhou first, and only if they win can they enter Sanshui County to continue fighting. , Or take a big boat around.
Fortunately, the Zhang family always knows how to advance and retreat when doing things, and never do anything that shouldn't be done. Many secrets are written and sent up, otherwise they would have been cleaned up long ago.
This is not true. Just when I was given to go to the big fish, several officials of the court used pigeons to spread the news, saying that they wanted to taste the taste of sea fish, and planned to pay for one. Among them, there was the person in charge of the imperial dining room in the palace.
After reading the letter, Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan knew that they weren't asking for marine fish, they were expressing a kind of meaning, that is, Zhang's sending fish, they all knew.
"It’s not easy to give something. Give it. If someone wants to eat it, it’s no good if you don’t give it. Find a few sheep’s hearts and put them in the fish’s belly. Remember to open the fish first, stuff it in from your mouth, Yushanfang said that fish and lamb together taste better and fresh."
Zhang Xiaobao knows this kind of thing very well, and Li Longji has asked people about fish, so let's give an answer.
Zhang Zhong didn't understand what it meant, so he came over to ask.
"Xiaobao, put the sheep's heart directly into the fish's belly? Can it still be eaten?"
"Eat? Dad, people don't know how to eat it. Just look at it. Knowing that the Zhang and Wang family are loyal, it won't be difficult for us."
Zhang Xiaobao explained to his father.
"Then why put the sheep's heart, isn't it better for chicken hearts? Maybe fish can still be eaten." Zhang Zhong thinks this is also a learning.
Zhang Xiaobao shook his head: "Chickens are not good. Sheep and fish are not only fresh, but also nurturing. The first thing to admit is the people of Datang. If Li Longji is willing to play games, then play with him, oh, the emperor. "
Zhang Zhong now understands that he is also knowledgeable about giving something. It seems that he will have to learn a lot in the future, and he will often ask his son. It's not ordinary.
Knowing about the gift giving, Zhang Zhong asked again: "Xiaobao, where do you want to go for the father next time? It's not good to enter Beijing too early."
"Father, you don’t have to worry about this. There are people who are more interested than us. Li Xun will definitely find a way, and the same is true of Prince Si Ning. While you are free now, you can enjoy two more days, dad. It is estimated where you will go next time. It’s going to be busy again, either a particularly poor place or a particularly rich place.
It’s better to say that we are poor. Our family will use our own money to help the people, and then make a fortune. We are afraid to go to a wealthy place, such as Henan. The water is too deep, and going back and forth is probably exhausting people to death. "
In fact, Zhang Xiaobao asked his father to come to Yaozhou. It is very easy to manage here. The people will obey a decree, but this is absolutely impossible. Sanshui County has already caused people to worry, so how can Zhang family be given more opportunities?
Zhang Zhong touched his son's head and left without saying a word. He felt a little uncomfortable. Whenever he encountered something, he could not make a better judgment, so he had to ask his son.
He doesn't think that his son is overpowering him. No matter how clever his son is, he is also a son. He knows to be filial to his parents and he knows to share responsibilities for the family.
What makes him uncomfortable is that he always has to worry about his son. The son is still young, even the gods are tired. The things that shouldn't be bothered by the son and the daughter-in-law should be kept busy with them. If he can understand more, The son and daughter-in-law are relieved.
Learn, you must learn, and let your son and daughter-in-law do less tiring work in the future.
Zhang Zhong walked to his yard, thinking about it all the way. He also saw how good his son and daughter-in-law were. That was a real strategy. In terms of business, calculations, and people's livelihood, he also added four little children. Body.
While dealing with the son and daughter-in-law, they can also take time to train the guards and learn knowledge every day. Oh, yes, there is another aspect of diplomacy. The two children also take care of them, and they have to make new things from time to time to make money and develop. All the burdens are on the baby's body.
Seeing his father left, Zhang Xiaobao took out the pen and paper and began to design things on it.
The things to be done this time are simple, that is, sledges and ice skates. The design must first be done in kind, and then sent to the Ministry of Engineering and the Ministry of War. Regardless of the simple things, the effect is not small. It can transport goods and make people on the ice. Fast forward on the surface.
According to the service objects of science and technology, the first one is naturally military. Therefore, the court must know about this matter first, and only after the court people can study and understand it, can they consider whether to apply it to the people's livelihood.
If the same is true, then ice skates can be made first this year to make money. It is also an entertainment project. The sledge can be equipped with a bow and arrow or a crossbow.
