Chapter 81 The sweet potato moves in all directions
Prosperous Chang'an, busy traffic!
Suzaku Street is full of people, and it is the most prosperous place in Chang'an City. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Looking at the long street, but seeing the pedestrians in a hurry, the scholars who wander leisurely, the hawkers who sell along the street, and the Wuhou who patrols the street with knives, the south and the north are bustling and noisy, a lively scene.
Wang's mansion is located on Zhuque Street, the mansion covers an area of 100 acres, the building is majestic and extraordinary, there are hundreds of Chinese houses inside and outside.
Pavilions, small bridges and flowing water, really envy countless others.
Although the Tang Dynasty was founded not long ago, the imperial capital was expensive, especially Suzaku Street was crowded with wealthy families, and the value of land could not be measured by money.
However, the Taiyuan Wang family has been inherited for thousands of years, ranking first among the five major valves in the world, and has the reputation of the Wang family out of Taiyuan in the world. Such a majestic and powerful family is really nothing to have a mansion in Chang'an.
Everyone in Chang'an knows that the Wang family is the first in the family, and the power is arrogant.
Although Suzaku Street is expensive, the Wang family can afford to buy it. Not only can I buy it, but I also buy a lot.
Not for anything else, just to show the strength of the family!
In fact, not only the Wang family, but other families also have properties here.
Chinese people are like this, the more expensive the land, the more willing to get together, although the house on Suzaku Street is expensive, but it can't stop the crazy wealthy family, both the family and the nobles are proud to have a house on Suzaku Street.
There is an industry here, and the wider the area, the more strength it can show, and the fierceness of land competition can be seen.
When the Wang family was preparing to build the house, they didn't know how much money they spent, and they also used various means of conspiracy, deception and suppression, and finally won the 100 acres of land.
From the end of the Sui Dynasty to the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, the Wang family continued to build this mansion, and it took three generations to complete it. This mansion represents the face of the Wang family and shows the majesty of the gate valve, which has been the envy of countless Chang'an people.
However, today, this mansion, once known as the first mansion in Chang'an, looks a little dilapidated.
There is no other reason, it was blown up.
The front yard of the entire mansion turned into scorched earth, bricks and stones were scattered all over the ground, and the wind blew the sand and dust, faintly revealing a depression.
In front of the door is the bustling Suzaku Street, but the home is a dilapidated scene, and this strong contrast is literally slapping all the Wang family in the face.
There's no way, let's spend money and food to rebuild! If you don't repair the house for a day, you will be ridiculed for a day, and the dignity of the Taiyuan Wang family as a family must not be swept away.
Almost all the craftsmen in Chang'an City were hired.
The Wang family was also ruthless, not only paying three times the money to hire people, but also mobilizing materials from all over the country, and the restoration work of the entire house was non-stop day and night, almost the same day a day.
In the early morning of this day, the sun had just risen in the east, and there was still a mist everywhere, and the restoration craftsmen of the Wang mansion began to work again.
The front yard was noisy and busy, but the backyard was a little silent.
It's still the back garden, it's still the little pavilion. Wang Lingyun sat in the pavilion, his face still had that leisurely and dusty, but there was a faint chill in the corners of his eyes.
Under the steps outside the pavilion, there was a black-clothed spy standing in his hand, and he slowly told Wang Lingyun about the recent events.
"Childe! The patriarch went to the second room last night, and his behavior was a little intriguing, and I hope that the son will pay attention in advance. ”
"Really?" Wang Lingyun responded lightly, he picked up a tea bowl, first blew lightly, and then slowly took a sip, the fragrance of tea continued to impact on the tips of his lips, teeth and tongue, and finally went down his throat to the lower abdomen, he exhaled a long breath of hot air, and then chuckled leisurely: "Tea has a fragrance, quiet and drinkable, grandfather and his old man haven't come here to taste tea for a long time." Alas, what a pity. ”
These words sounded leisurely, but there was a hint of resentment in the fine taste, and the spy closed his eyes and lowered his hands like a stone statue, and he didn't dare to comment at all.
"You're a man who knows the rules!" Wang Lingyun snorted and smiled: "Let's talk about it, what did my grandfather do when he went to the second room?" ”
"Back to the prince, the patriarch went to the second room to summon a lot of people, and then left Wang Xun Gongzi alone. The two talked about a tea time, during which the patriarch comforted Wang Xun several times, and there was a faint hint in his tone... Some..."
The spy glanced at Wang Lingyun carefully, and Ai Ai was reluctant to continue.
"Something hints, right?" Wang Lingyun interjected directly.
"Yes!" The spy carefully agreed, and lowered his head vigorously.
Wang Lingyun snorted lightly, he took another sip of tea, and sighed leisurely: "I just failed once, so you can't help but change people." Grandfather, grandfather, isn't there really any family affection in the heart of the patriarch after being in office for a long time? Hehe, you also want to support the wall with such mud as Wang Xun, is he worthy? ”
He said lightly, his eyes suddenly flashed fiercely, and he said coldly: "Order the shadow son on the other side of the second room to make a move, since Wang Xun wants to compete with this son, then he can't stay any longer." ”
"Yes!" The spy agreed, and said respectfully: "The villain will arrange manpower tonight to ensure that the second son will not live until tomorrow." ”
"Hmmm! I'm still relieved that you're doing things. Wang Lingyun glanced at him, thought for a while, and then said: "In addition to the things in the house, there are strange feelings outside?" ”
"Returning to the son, my subordinates are about to report!" The spy arched his hand, his tone became a little excited, and he said loudly: "Recently, there is news that Han Yue, a man from Jingyang County, has something new coming out, this time it is not comparable to waterwheels and Huoxiang Zhengqi water, etc., but a kind of treasure related to the people's livelihood, if the son can snatch it, he will definitely be able to soar into the sky."
"Oh? Han has come up with something that makes you so excited. ”
"Childe, that thing is called sweet potato, and it's a new crop variety. The subordinates sent people to investigate and heard that this thing was very simple to cultivate, not only did not pick the field, but also the yield per mu was extremely high. ”
"Really? How tall! Wang Lingyun blew lightly on the tea bowl, and his tone was a little light.
Secretly took a deep breath and said solemnly: "There are twenty or thirty loads." ”
Bang!
The tea bowl fell to the ground, shattering and flying. Wang Lingyun stood up suddenly, with a hint of shock and doubt on his face, and said urgently: "Is this true? Don't fool me with rumors? ”
"The news originally came from the Yamen of Wannian County, and the subordinates were also afraid that the matter would be exaggerated, so they sent some people to Tianjiazhuang to quietly verify, and finally determined that it was really true." The spy glanced at Wang Lingyun and said in an affirmative tone: "The farmers over there have been cultivating sweet potatoes recently......
"Good!" Wang Lingyun slapped the table, a trace of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes, and he said coldly: "That Han Yue has embarrassed me several times, and my son is worried that he doesn't know how to retaliate, and this time he just settles the account with him." ”
His face was gloomy, and he suddenly ordered: "You go and prepare manpower now, and transfer all the dead soldiers in this son's captivity, and I will personally lead the team to Natianjiazhuang." ”
The spy was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but say, "Son, do you want to go to Tianjiazhuang in person?" Nobles don't take risks! ”
"Risky? You also think too highly of that Han Yue, but he is just a small county man from a farmer's family. Wang Lingyun snorted, his killing intent was clear, he smiled leisurely, and said: "Luo Jing'er has already gone to Qin Qiong's army, there is only one Li Fenghua by Han Yue's side, and this son has raised hundreds of dead soldiers in captivity, even if he uses human lives, he can be killed."
