In the second year of Kaiyuan, in April, willow green branches.

Seven miles outside the Tonghua Gate in the east of Chang'an City, Bashui flows through.

In a manor on the east bank of Bashui.

A group of people looked at a copper pipe in front of a teenager.

Then the boy put a small burning torch on the porous, porous-fired object on it.

There was a soft 'bang', and a flame appeared on the thumb-thick, one-inch-long ceramic thing.

"It's done, you can use it to light up your reading at night, and remember not to walk in the water."

The boy smiled and said to the people dressed up as students.

All the students watched, one of them watched, clasped their fists with both hands, and gave a deep salute to the young man: "Brother Li Yixian funded us to wait for the light of the candle, and we can't repay it, it's really ashamed." ”

The other students saluted one after another, their eyes showing gratitude.

The young man waved his hand: "Brothers, don't thank me. When it comes to the day of wealth, don't forget the bitter cold people. ”

"Virtuous brother, we will definitely keep it in mind." The man said again.

The crowd saluted again.

Then I watched Li Yi close the place where the copper pipe was screwed, and the flame went out.

Then one by one they excitedly ran back to their room in the village.

It was still cold in Chang'an in April, but it was warm in their house.

In addition to the wooden beds erected in the house, which are different from those in other places, there is also a fire tunnel built along the wall.

The houses are connected to each other, and there is a masonry chimney behind every six huts.

The six huts share a stove, and the students take turns to burn charcoal, and the house is warm and pleasant.

Not to mention the students, Li Yi, who lit the biogas flamethrower lamp, also hurried back to the main house.

Get into the house, close the door, and latch.

Li Yi silently thought: "Come out and see how much life I have?" ”

As he meditated, a screen appeared in front of him that no one else could see.

A number is displayed on the screen: 1550

Li Yi patted his chest: "I survived again, it's good, it's 1200." ”

As he spoke, he wiped his sweat and felt palpitations.

Previously the number was 350.

This means that he will live for three hundred and fifty hours, which is seven hundred in hours.

If you change it to a day, it's a little more than twenty-nine days.

When the time comes, he disappears, life disappears.

He came through in October last year and brought such a system with him.

As long as he can contribute to the development of this society, the system rewards longevity.

At the same time, the time of life can also be exchanged for the technical information and physical goods he needs.

For example, this biogas digester and simple biogas lamp manufacturing method were obtained in exchange for his life.

It took 400 hours to exchange.

And better biogas lamps, can't afford to change.

But he is not in a hurry, the use of biogas is a series, and there is income in the follow-up.

This place is the eastern suburb of the capital, and the manor covers an area of 1,000 acres.

When Li Yi crossed over, the formalities were complete, and no one doubted it.

There are forty-two students from Chang'an who come to Chang'an in the manor to live for free, providing Li Yi with a life expectancy.

Students study hard, increase knowledge, he increases life.

In order to let students have a good learning environment and increase their knowledge.

And he called the hired tenants, and the bridal servants, and the servants, and the maidservants, and the men and women, to build a wall of fire.

"It's spring, you should find a way to make money, otherwise you won't be able to support people." Li Yi saw the numbers and said with a little relief.

He owns 1,000 acres of land, leaving 800 acres and recruiting 10 tenants.

As the head of the family, he provided oxen and plows, and collected 20% of the rent, which was less than 30% of the rent of other families.

He also said that he was in charge of the tenants' rent, and the ten families beat the other competitors and came over happy.

Last year's winter wheat was planted and harvested in another month and a half.

It's time to pay the summer grain to the imperial court.

Twenty percent of the rent is simply not enough for rent, mediocrity, and adjustment.

So Li Yi has to think of other ways to make money.

Fortunately, he was not idle all winter and was prepared.

***

In the evening, when it was dark, the housekeeper Song De beckoned everyone to come over for dinner.

When they arrived in the conference hall of the main house, forty-two students also rushed over.

Every ten days on weekdays, the proprietor Li Yi will invite the students to have a meal, with meat and nutrition.

The students live for free, and Li Yi doesn't care about the rest.

However, in the winter, four students who had a cold had a fever.

Li Yi exchanged the price of two hours of his life for a box of cold medicine.

Secretly pour it into the ginger soup and pour it into the students, okay.

Two tablets per person are fine, and there are still a lot left in the medicine box.

He was afraid that if he asked Lang Zhong to pour Chinese medicine slowly, he would infect others.

At this time, there were five of the ten tenant farmers with three people, young couples and children.

Three households of four, young couple and two children.

Two families of five, a young couple and three children.

There is one steward, four male servants, and four female servants.

There are forty-six people in the entire family, counting Li Yi forty-seven.

Today is less than 10 days before the last meeting, and it is only 6 days.

But isn't there a biogas lamp, celebrate?

The main reason is that Li Yi wants to try something new to see if everyone likes it or not.

Today I ate prison pills, i.e. dumplings.

Dumplings with pork and garlic filling, made by themselves in the garlic village.

I ate garlic sprouts today in order to plant garlic to see how well the garlic is doing.

It starts planting in April and is harvested around September, and another crop can be planted.

Li Yi set aside 100 acres of land to plant garlic, and the base fertilizer has been lowered.

Wait for one of the three digesters to be used up first, and then use biogas manure for top dressing.

Now the main event is coming, whether you can make money or not, you can count on liking something.

The steward Song De brought a large bowl with a yellow-black liquid.

It smells like a five-scented scent.

"This is a soy sauce developed by the proprietor of my family, you can dip it in the pills and taste it." Song De solemnly introduced.

The students and tenant farmers looked solemn and waited for the steward to distribute them.

The steward took a spoon, one for each person, and scooped it into a clay dish.

A spoonful of soy sauce for each person, hold the balls with chopsticks, everyone take a small bite, and then ......

"It's delicious, it's delicious, Brother Li Xian is talented." 1. Appreciation from students.

The rest of the people echoed it, good, delicious, it must be delicious, even if it is not delicious, it must be said to be delicious.

No way, live in someone's house for nothing.

What's more, there is a lamp that doesn't cost money tonight.

The other tenants, except for the two little ones who couldn't eat prison pills and could only eat thin food, the other seventeen children were also not lacking in courtesy.

The children are learning with the students, and Li Yi provides them with pen, ink, paper and inkstone.

Therefore, the ten tenant farmers, in addition to farming, also took the initiative to ask the proprietor to do other work.

Li Yi tastes the soy sauce, huh! The taste is good, and the pure brewing is better than the blending.

After eating a meal, Li Yi rested and prepared to sell soy sauce.

The students went back to their small room and lit the pottery lamp on the small copper pipe that extended into the room according to Li Yi's operation method.

The room was brighter than a candle.

One by one, they held the book and read hard, occasionally writing down what was in their hearts.

The next morning, because garlic was going to be planted today, the people in Zhuangzi began to eat three meals a day.

Children of all ages drank millet porridge, ate a boiled egg, and went to the school to learn by themselves.

"Heaven and earth are yellow, the universe is desolate, the sun and the moon are shining, the sun and the moon are shining, the cold comes and the summer comes, the autumn harvest and the winter hide the ......"

The sound of recitation came from the school.

Listening to the voice, the tenants who were working were full of strength for a while.

In a nearby manor, there are about 30 people a year listening intently.

After a moment, he pointed to Li Yi's Zhuangzi and asked, "Who is that?" ”

A person who had always bent over on his left side replied sharply: "It was originally a clan, and then it was killed one after another, and when only a few people lived, he recruited Li Yi, a lonely child of the same clan, to join the clan. ”

"Why do children read a thousand-character text?" The man asked again.

Hui Taiwei asked, Li Yi has just entered the year of dancing elephants this year, and he is not as weak as the crown. Correct! Understand academics and educate them. ”

"Last winter, there were ten tenants and nine slaves."

"After building a kiln to burn bricks, the house was built in winter, and Xu Jingcheng had no roots to borrow it."

"The students read their grace and teach the tenants to learn literature."

The person who was called a captain smiled and said, "There are still such teenagers? Why don't you and I change our clothes and go to see. ”

"Taiwei ......" the person next to him hesitated.

"Is it dangerous?" The lieutenant asked.

"Not really."

"So go."

The two of them changed into ordinary clothes, did not lead the horse, turned around, and made a detour.

At this time, the forty-two students also got up, washed up, and went to the cowshed, pig house, and chicken pen to clean.

The two of them happened to arrive and were surprised to see a group of students doing such farm work.

The lieutenant was interested, and slipped to the cowshed.

Before seeing the cow, he saw a pair first.

Shanglian: Heng Mei coldly pointed at Qianfu

Downlink: Attached to the head of the cow for the son of the cow

"Good link, good words." The lieutenant tasted it carefully and praised it.

Turn your head and go to the pig barn, the same couplet.

Shanglian: No pig can't make a home

Downlink: It is difficult to defend the country and defend the clan

The lieutenant gasped when he saw this.

Now the clan comes first in the country, but this pair says that without a country is a lost clan.

He clenched his fists and went to the chicken pen again.

The chickens have been released, and the students are cleaning the chicken coops on the upper and lower floors.

The upper floor is left alone, and the chicken manure under the cross fence in the chicken coop is pulled out.

Then the lieutenant saw another couplet.

Shanglian: Every morning Xiaofeng goes to the song

Downlink: I often miss the return of the twilight birds

He closed his eyes and sighed softly: "Alas~~~"

He thought that his official position of Tai Lieutenant was given by the emperor's younger brother.

The emperor's younger brother really didn't want to kill each other anymore, so he put the brothers together.

In the court, the emperor's younger brother is naturally a dragon, such as a phoenix Ling Tian.

In the next dynasty, the emperor's younger brother put aside other identities with his brothers.

The chicken has the ambition of the phoenix, but it is coming back at dusk. Is it because you have family?

"A couplet writes about the mind, a couplet writes about the relationship between the family and the country, and a couplet writes about family affection, so talented."

The lieutenant was shocked.

It's obviously an ordinary farm, but what I feel is a majestic bearing.

That young man, who is it?

The sound of children reading books that continued to ring in my ears lingered like fairy music.

This is the people of the Tang Dynasty?

"The first word, but the garment. Push the position to give way to the country, and there is Yu Tao Tang. The children's voices continued.

Taiwei suddenly laughed, yes, push the throne and give up the country, is this talking about himself and his father?

Just as he was thinking, a student who had finished cleaning the chicken pen came over and arched his hand: "This benevolent brother is invited, you are also from Mutianju?" ”

The lieutenant was stunned for a moment, and then understood.

The other party asked implicitly, do you have no money to live, so you ran here.

But when he thought about it, he felt that it was right.

Now the winter wheat is not ripe, and last year's grain stock is almost gone.

As a result, the high price of food is not easy for students who come to live in Chang'an.

In another month, it will be a real green and yellow failure.

"Let's take a look, I wonder if the proprietor is there?" He mumbled.

"What about planting garlic, if Brother Ren is not in a hurry, and wait for him to come back at noon." Students point in one direction.

"Thank you, I'd better go." The lieutenant clenched his fists and walked in that direction with the people around him.
