Except for Liu Xiaohui, who was too young, the rest of the Liu family survived all night.

Early the next morning, when the sky was just dawning, Lao Liu stood up and extinguished the red candle that had been burning all night, and then refilled the incense in front of the ancestral tablet, and then told his family to rest.

Therefore, on the first day of the new year, the old Liu family spent it in their sleep.

Liu Yiyi is not a sleepy person, and more than ten years of persistent training in Jeet Kune Do have allowed him to develop a series of good habits and a good body. Under normal circumstances, only five to six hours of sleep is enough for him to refresh for a day. So when the family was still asleep, he got up, moved his body in the courtyard a few times, and practiced the basic movements for a while. He began to take care of the family's eleven ploughing oxen.

Forage, drinking water, and the hygiene of the cow tent.

The redness of the cow's nose has subsided, and now it can be immediately put into farming with just a set. I just don't know when the person promised by Wang Zhihong will arrive, and whether the Quyuan plough can be made.

These are all related to whether he can open up the wasteland and plant spring millet in the ground before spring ploughing. If you can't catch up, then you will miss a season, a season of thirty acres, how much do you have to lose?

Although I don't know what the average yield per mu of spring millet in the Tang Dynasty was, Liu Yiyi was confident, and under his command, the yield per mu of his more than 300 acres of fields could reach at least 300-400 catties. This is not bragging, if there is a fertilizer or compound fertilizer, he will increase the number even more.

One mu is 400, and the 300 mu is 120,000 catties. It's all money.

Liu Yiyi was pondering, and suddenly saw the yellow shirt and Wang Zhihong rushing towards their house from a distance. I don't know why he came at this time, Liu Yiyi patted the grass stuck to his body, got up and greeted him.

The two of them were riding horses, and they were very fast, and as soon as Liu Yichi walked to the door, they also arrived.

"Lord Wang, Huang Zhutou. Why do you have time to come to the humble house today? Liu Yiyi opened the door, arched his hands and smiled: "It's cold outside, please two of you inside!" ”

Wang Zhihong and Huang Shirt turned over and dismounted one after another, Wang Zhihong handed the reins to Huang Shirt, and said politely to Liu: "It's really rude to visit suddenly, please don't blame Brother Liu!" ”

"Lord Wang, where is this, Lord Wang is willing to come to the cold house, and he is already happy in his heart, how can he be strange? Lord Wang, please! Huang Tou please! Liu Yiyi stretched out his hand and asked Wang Zhihong to come in. The Yellow Shirt followed after tying up his horse.

When they arrived at the hall, Wang Zhihong and Huang Yi first put a pillar of incense in front of the ancestral tablet of the old Liu family, and simply worshipped, and then sat down with Liu Yiyi.

Liu Yiyi said: "Lord Wang, Huang Zhutou will sit down for a while, and I will go and call the second brother to meet the teacher." ”

"Hey, Brother Liu," Wang Zhihong opened his mouth to stop Liu Yiyi, and said, "It's hard to keep the New Year, you don't have to call him, and I can't stay here for long, I'll have to hurry back later." ”

After Liu Yiyi sat down, Wang Zhihong said again: "It is really abrupt to come to visit on the first day of the new year. But if you don't come today, it will be a little difficult to see you in the future. ”

"Oh?" Liu Yiyi sat up straight and said, "Why is this?" Isn't it, Lord Wang has been promoted? ”

Wang Zhihong laughed and said: "Little Brother Liu is really wise, you can guess it at once." The day before yesterday, the emperor lowered the reward and transferred Wang to serve in Beijing, and the official worshiped the governor of the governor's history, and tomorrow is the time to start. ”

"Is that really happening?! In this way, the small people congratulate Lord Wang! Liu Yiyi congratulated. From the ninth grade to the sixth grade, it is no wonder that Wang Zhihong is so happy.

"Hehe," Wang Zhihong looked at Liu Yiyi and said with a smile: "Wang can receive this favor this time, Brother Liu and I know it well, Wang is here this time to say goodbye, and the second is to thank you." And then there is the coming to end my promise the day before yesterday. ”

After speaking, Wang Zhihong waved at the yellow shirt, and the yellow shirt took out a notebook from his arms and handed it to Liu.

Wang Zhihong said: "The records here are all about some farmers who are willing to come to you to farm, a total of 91 households, which is enough for you to cultivate and cultivate. As for commissions, you can pay them at the market price. You may also consult with them on your own. ”

In addition, after Wang leaves office, the next county order will be replaced by Lord Li Zhide. Master Li and Wang are old acquaintances, I have taken care of him, and I can ask him for help if I have any problems in the future. ”

"Lord Lao is bothered. The grace of Lord Wang, an inscription within five. Liu Yiyi stood up and gave Wang Zhihong a deep salute. People are leaving, and they can still think so carefully about his future, this favor, Liu Yiyi inherited.

"Also," Wang Zhihong continued: "There have been some changes in Wang Kui's case, and Liu Peng relied on some of his favors to say that he moved His Royal Highness the Prince, which can be regarded as saving Wang Kui's life. Now Wang Kui has been sentenced to have his household registration stripped and sent to the border reins to serve for 50 years. The family's land has also been repossessed by the government. Of the 91 peasant households mentioned in the book just now, eight or nine out of ten were selected from Wang Kui. They are all experienced old farmers, which can save you a lot of worry. ”

"Liu Peng?" Hasn't this old man fallen out of favor? Why are you still bouncing? Liu Yiyi said worriedly: "Lord Wang, since Liu Peng has intervened in this matter now, do you think he will retaliate against me?" If he really comes, I'm afraid that we can't afford to parry it? ”

Wang Zhihong waved his hand and said: "You can rest assured about this, Liu Peng has always been very careful in doing things, and he will not mess around." And this matter has nothing to do with you, you are just a victim of Wang Kui's persecution. If Liu Peng wants to settle the account, he will only settle the account on Wang's head. ”

"That's a relief. Please also be careful in the future. It is important to know that open guns are easy to dodge, but hidden arrows are difficult to prevent. Liu Yiyi was relieved. Although he is not afraid, there will be a lot of trouble if he really fights. Since ancient times, the people did not fight with officials, and no one would be willing to be enemies of officials in the DPRK and China unless necessary, even if that official was a corrupt official.

Wang Zhihong nodded, this is something that Liu Yiyi didn't remind him to know. Stretched out his hand and took out a piece of copper order from his arms, handed it to Liu Yiyi and said: "In the future, if you have something, you can also come to Chang'an to find me, take this small order to my house, and someone will take you into the house." ”

Liu Yiyi took the small order with both hands and said, "Thank you Lord Wang for your care, if you have leisure in the future, you will definitely visit the house." ”

"Well," Wang Zhihong stood up and said, "So Wang will leave first." ”

Liu Yiyi knew that he still had promotion matters to do, so he didn't hold them back, bowed down and sent them to the door, and said, "Lord Wang go slowly, I wish Lord Wang a smooth sailing tomorrow, and one will not be sent far." ”

Wang Zhihong rode onto the horse, arched his hand at Liu one by one, and said: "Chengliu little brother Jiyan, Wang has taken the first step!" Drive! ”

With a wave of the whip, the two of them were gone.
