In autumn, the fields are dry and muddy, and the chickens are idle on the ridges. People are busy with their backs facing north, and the sun turns to the west. The scythe is like the wind, and the sweat is like rain. Spring is tired of March, just to wait for this season.

People with fields everywhere are busy, taking advantage of the hot weather and no rain to grab the grain, otherwise an autumn rain will fall, and the harvest will be reduced in an instant.

The speed of the Zhuang of Zhang and Wang Zhuangzi is obviously faster than that of other Zhuang, and there is no difference in dress, the only difference is the tool in hand, the sickle, the sickle of the two Zhuangzi of Zhang and Wang is slightly longer than the handle used by others, and the knife is also a little longer, and the curvature is also a little larger.

After Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan saw the sickle here, they found that it was different from what they had seen before, and the two discussed it, and felt that there may be regional differences in the reasons for the differences, and more importantly, in the process of inheritance, the laborers improved little by little.

At this time, it seems that the speed is really a lot faster.

Another reason for speeding up is the physical condition, some small benefits given by Zhang Wang's two main families, so that the farmer's body is healthier than other households, and the diet is much better, and the mechanical labor is endurance and resistance to sunlight.

The sum of a few points makes the speed of the two dealers half as fast as that of other places.

Everyone else was busy, Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan also ran outside, squatting in the shade of the big tree and drawing circles with small wooden sticks, Zhang Xiaobao used a ruler to draw a picture for Li Cheng to ponder, and Wang Juan drew something else there.

"What are you...... Combine? That's a good idea, I'll draw an oil refinery here, and I'll provide you with oil for the machine at that time, and you should be drawing diesel fuel, right? ”

Zhang Xiaobao had just figured out two small games with graphics, and when he turned his head, he saw what Wang Juan had drawn in front of him, two large machines, the front one for harvesting and threshing, and the one in the back responsible for dust loading.

"Don't look down on people, how long did it take from the invention of the steam engine to the launch of satellites into the sky? When the white steam came out of the front of the car, the wheels of history ....... ”

"The wheel of history has been crushed over the crystallization of the sweat of countless people, countless people, not a liar and a policeman can do it, he contains ......."

"I know, doesn't it just include the accumulation of various disciplines, just draw a picture, and don't say how to make it, when will people go to the mountains to plug those big natural ponds? Freshwater crabs, shrimp and fish bought from elsewhere are still kept in ponds, and they can't fit any bigger. ”

Wang Juan made a cross on the picture he drew with a wooden stick, clapped his little hand and asked Zhang Xiaobao.

Zhang Xiaobao looked at the people working in the field, and said hesitantly: "Why do you have to wait for others to finish the work, this time Erniu brought a lot of Maifan stones from there, where are they used?" It's really not possible to go to the capital to buy some real estate and build a bigger bath over there, do you think someone will go? ”

"It's going to get you in trouble, unless you want to join a certain force, don't you think?" Wang Juan poured a basin of cold water on Zhang Xiaobao.

"I don't want to, just put the stone at home, as well as fungus and white fungus, don't sell it first, keep it, wait for another two years, people's living standards will improve, take it out at a good price, don't get damp, prevent insect bites, that thing can be put for a long time, and then release it when our talent reserve is almost up."

Zhang Xiaobao whispered a few words, and Wang Juan also agreed and said: "Yes, there are too few people around who can support one side alone, and it will be a loss to let them out to operate a business, so let's take a small shop to exercise first, and wait for Cheng County Order to rise, and we will continue to cultivate a new county order here."

Over there, let Cheng County order attract more people, existing officials, students who will take the exam in the future, I am in favor of opening an inn in the capital, find a slightly remote place to buy it, it is really not possible to be outside the city, listen to Zhou Xihu and his uncle, there is also prosperity around. ”

"Okay, I understand what you mean, give some benefits to those students who go to the capital to prepare for the exam, among a hundred people, even if only one person is admitted, it will be of great help to us, and it doesn't have to show off talents, there are other disciplines, so it's decided, let's go, see what you eat tonight?"

After Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan finished discussing business, they stood up and walked towards the cooking place over there, where there were several large cauldrons set up, boiling water and cutting vegetables were busy, a large piece of pork belly, and some green vegetables or dried vegetables were thrown into the pot.

Before they got closer, a smell of green onion fried pot floated over, Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan sniffed and nodded with satisfaction, there is a lot of oil smoke here, no oil slick, no pork belly directly fried oil, it should taste good then.

"The little boy and the little lady are here? It's hot, sit here. As soon as the workers saw the two little ancestors on the Zhuangzi wandering closer, a woman in her thirties with weak legs and feet found two small benches, and moved the umbrella specially held up for them to move a position, just blocking Zhang Xiaobao and the others.

Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan don't want to disturb others, but seeing that people have already made things good, they can only enjoy it, the two understand that sometimes there are some things you can't refuse, if you really want to leave at this time, the Zhuang must think that the main family is not satisfied, in case the two ancestors go back to talk about today's things, the lord will also feel that the account is disrespectful to the people of the main family.

As soon as the two of them were seated, a low table was placed in front of them, and the pork belly specially prepared for the people in the inner courtyard was cut into thin slices, and served on a wooden plate on the table, with a small plate of garlic sauce placed next to it.

After the boycott, the cucumbers that have been preserved until now will also be flattened, pickled with salt and garlic, and poured some sesame oil on Zhang Xiaobao and the two of them will eat it.

Zhang Xiaobao took a piece of meat and dipped it in the plate, and before he could taste anything, he said, "Okay, delicious, it's so fragrant." ”

"Well, it smells good." Wang Juan also chimed in.

As soon as the two people's voices fell, just as they thought, the faces of the people around them all showed happy smiles, and a compliment could make them happy for a day.

"It really doesn't taste, does it Xiaobao?" Wang Juan also ate a piece of meat, licked the oil from the corner of his mouth with his tongue, and asked Zhang Xiaobao.

"Well, that is, the garlic sauce has not been soaked in big ingredients, and the bubble sauce is more delicious, and the cooking heat is also good, fat but not greasy, thin but not firewood, and so on tomorrow we will do it, don't boil, cut it into slices and copy it with boiling water, wash off the oil slick and blood water on it, put the chicken soup under the drawer, and steam it in the pot, like making button meat."

Zhang Xiaobao still felt that there could be a better way to eat, and Wang Juan nodded his head in agreement when he heard it.

"Boss, this is it, look at how well this rice grows, boss, you slow down."

Just when Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan were half-full, a group of people came from Xiaoqiao, and when they approached the place where they were cooking, a man wearing a blue silk shirt and a beard on his head spoke to a man with a rich body, light yellow slanted shoulders, wide-legged pants, and narrow heel leather boots.

"What do they do?" Wang Juan put down his chopsticks and muttered.

"I don't know, usually when I see such a subordinate talking to such a person, it is usually a villain, and his acting skills are not as good as Song Jinggong, which obviously says that I am a bad person on my face."

Zhang Xiaobao said with a smile to Wang Juan, he didn't care who came at all, now the two families are not as good as they were at the beginning, they are also officials, not the kind of soft persimmons that make people have nothing to do.

"Well, good, good place, one acre of land can produce more than four stones of grain, I heard that there is a market here, why haven't you seen it?"

The proprietor looked around with a shy stomach and asked the kid just now.

"If you go back to the owner, you're busy, maybe you can come out at night, the owner, you sit and stand weirdly tired." As this man spoke, he fixed his eyes on Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan, to be precise, on the stool under his buttocks.

When the sound of a few copper coins rolling on the table sounded, the man said to Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan: "Little baby, stand up, these copper coins are yours." ”

"Yes, there is a lackey posture." Wang Juan looked at a few copper coins on the table and said to Zhang Xiaobao, but his voice was not small, so that everyone around him heard it.

"Indeed, otherwise how could someone say that dogs look down on people, probably that's how it came about." Zhang Xiaobao also said.

At this time, the people around the cooks had stopped their work, and surrounded the group with various tools, and the vegetable cutter stood in front of Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan with a kitchen knife, and the blood on the knife fell drop by drop, splashing on the ground into a small black pit.

"You, what are you going to do? Know, know, I, who am I? The person who spoke just now has now reacted, and after listening to the words of the two children, he knew that the status of the family was not low, and he said with regret and fear.

"Leper, if you don't give me back, how can you let the nobleman give way? Ladies and gentlemen, I usually don't discipline strictly, so this kid is a little arrogant, I can't compensate here, I don't know which family these two nobles are? ”

Just when this kid was worried that he would be beaten, the owner behind him stood up in time to play a round, and he saw clearly at this time that the clothes worn by the two little babies were made of average materials, but the exposed places on their faces and hands were white and tender, and ordinary children in the village could not be like this.

"What are you asking? Where did you come from? What for? One of the people in charge of the cooking place did not answer the other person's words, but looked at several people with suspicious eyes and asked rhetorically.

"This is our host, specially come to see you here, the autumn harvest is over, so much grain can't be sold, our host wants it all, ten cents a bucket."

The leper knew that it was time for him to speak, and pointed to the unharvested field, and offered a very high purchase price.
