The daily life of the bandits in the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 171 The old man is here

It is also very difficult for the soldiers in winter, especially the sentinels on duty at night, but the quality of military supplies is nothing to say.

As their chief, Chu Yang must of course care for the soldiers.

"The fourth batch of Zhaizhu has only started production, and Zheng Jide has already arranged for workers to work in three shifts."

"It is expected to be completed in 5 days, and then the goods outside Jingzhou will be produced. This year, it is estimated that it can only be supplied to a few states around Chang'an. After the beginning of spring next year, goods from the Later Sui Dynasty will be produced."

Due to time constraints, we can only satisfy the surrounding area now. Originally, the production of clothing should be produced one season in advance.After the beginning of spring, the goods produced in the Sui Dynasty are actually useless. When summer comes, who will need it.

Chu Yang knew about this problem, and immediately said, "There is no need to produce the goods of the Later Sui Dynasty. Today is winter 24, right?"

"Dongyue 23, village master."

Cao Wang wondered why Chu Yang would ask such a question.

"You tell Zheng Jide that the fourth batch will be completed before the winter solstice, and then the workers will be divided into two groups, one group will produce the goods that Jingzhou thinks, and the other group will produce spring clothes."

"Good village master, I will notify you right now."

For now, the style of persuasion still follows the current style, and Chu Yang has no plans to do any future styles for the time being, but with the development of society, it will change, mainly from work clothes.

After confirming that the issue of keeping the people warm had been implemented, Chu Yang walked around the village owner and watched the villagers working with joy and laughter. Suddenly he felt tired and had too many things to take care of. When he saw the children in the village running all over the slope to play, he thought it was worth it.

As the saying goes, the higher the position, the greater the responsibility, and now he deeply feels the meaning of this sentence.

It was already evening when we returned to the villa.

At this moment, the table is full of sumptuous dishes.

The eldest grandson Wugou came out with a plate of fish-flavored shredded pork.

"Ma'am, why are you eating so much tonight?"

Chu Yang grabbed a piece of twice-cooked pork on the table with his hands and put it in his mouth.

"Sanggong, why did you eat it? There are guests at home."

Changsun Wugou glared at him.

"Who is it, people?"

"It's your father-in-law and Zheng Jide, in the study."

When Chu Yang heard this, he felt a 'thump' in his heart, it was broken, it was something related.

Without thinking about it, he knew that his father-in-law was here to sit or something, and he must be thinking about clothing.

At noon, Cao Wang was asked to notify Zheng Jide, and now he is here. It seems that Zheng Jide lives in the town below the mountain, and this father-in-law should be waiting for him, otherwise he would not come so soon.

"Ma'am, I'll go up and have a look, and come up and call us after dinner."

"I know, go, sister Zheng is here."

When Chu Yang heard that it was broken, he was afraid that there would be some bleeding.

He walked up to the second floor, but the door of the study was not closed, and the voice of his father-in-law Zheng Jibo just came from inside.

"Guanyin, I think Xiao Chu is really good. You are so old, there are still decades to go, and you have also worshiped. Why do you want to be so obsessed with Jiancheng?"

Hearing this, Chu Yang stopped, intending to eavesdrop for a while longer.

"Father, I don't miss Jiancheng. I think it's good to live alone like this. When I was with Jiancheng, I wanted to live like this."

"Niece Xian, uncle said something that shouldn't be said. This woman still needs a man to rely on. You said that if you are married with a girl in your belly, who will take care of you?"

Having said this, the three of them were silent.

What Zheng Jide meant was not that Chu Yang could take care of him, but that he should have several children with Chu Yang. If he had a son, he would have to take care of him. If there was only one child, it would be a big surprise.

In this era, children have a high mortality rate. Even if they can grow up, it is not easy for a son to work hard to support a family.

What Zheng Jide said was rather cryptic.

Chu Yang felt that it was time to go in. Their topic affected Zheng Guanyin too much.

He hoped that Zheng Guanyin was with him because he really loved him, and not because of someone to rely on, so that everyone would not be happy.

"Father-in-law, uncle, when did you arrive?"

Chu Yang walked into the study with a smile.

"I've only arrived in a while, and seeing that you're not here, I'll chat with Guanyin." Father-in-law said with a smile.

At this time Zheng Guanyin stood up.

"Xiaoyang, you guys talk, I'm going downstairs first."

Chu Yang looked at her and nodded, and said, "Go downstairs slowly."

"Ah."

Zheng Guanyin knew that Chu Yang and the others wanted to talk about serious business, so he was not suitable to be here.

Originally, Chu Yang thought it was his father-in-law who asked Zheng Guanyin to help him talk things over, but it seemed that he was being overwhelmed.

"Sir-in-law, please sit down."

"Did my father-in-law encounter any difficulties?"

Chu Yang sat in Zheng Guanyin's seat and took a sip from Zheng Guanyin's teacup.

The father-in-law also glanced at the cup, and the two looked at each other.

"Master, it's like this, the clan brother wants to enter our clothes and sell them."

"Father-in-law, at present our clothing has not yet been included in the varieties that need to be sold by agents."

So far, those who have paid more than 6 taels of gold and obtained full agent qualifications are five surnames Qiwang.

However, this full agency is only possible if the products of Mingyue Village are included in the varieties sold by the agency.

Originally, Chu Yang was just trying to cheat them out of money, so how could he take out this piece of cake.

As for the Zheng family, it was impossible for Chu Yang to kill him unless he was disobedient.

Chu Yang's reply made the atmosphere a little awkward. After thinking about it, he felt that it was time to start another project.

Then he smiled slightly and said, "Father-in-law, you can't make much money by making clothes."

"Currently, our Mingyue Village is planning a power generation project. This is where we can make a lot of money."

"Power generation project?"

Seeing that the two of them didn't understand, Chu Yang pointed to the lamp on the ceiling, and they immediately understood.

"My son-in-law, can this make money?"

"Of course you can, father-in-law, think about it. In the future, all the Bai surnames in Tang Dynasty will use electricity. The family will receive one tael a month, and 12 taels a year; this family is 12 taels, how much is a million-dollar family? How much does this clothing earn? The money is just drizzle."

"And after the project is completed, there will be almost no cost, and it will protect the prosperity forever."

Originally Chu Yang wanted to talk, but the eldest grandson Wugou had already called for dinner downstairs, so the three of them had no choice but to let it go.

But Chu Yang promised to tell them when the project is confirmed.

At present, Chu Yang still has a lot of things to do, first throw out the bait, then he will catch big fish.

"Father-in-law, uncle, what kind of wine should I drink?"

The whole family sat down around the round table, and Chu Yang asked while standing by the wine cabinet.

"It's the same bar as last time." Father-in-law said fondly.

He still remembered that the wine worked very well when Chu Yang got married.

During the dinner, Chu Yang filled the wine for Zheng Jibo and Zheng Jide, and drank a glass.

Then he picked up a piece of burnt white and stuffed it into his mouth.

"Well, not bad, today's burnt white is not bad."

Chu Yang praised with satisfaction.

"Sanggong, take a guess, who did the burning." Qiu Yun looked at him with a smile.

"Moon?"

Gao Mingyue, who was eating sweet and sour pork ribs, raised her head and said awkwardly, "My brother-in-law is not me."

Chu Yang mentioned the most unlikely person, Gao Mingyue, who can't even turn on a fire, can she cook?

"It's Siniang." Changsun Wugou glanced at Feng Siniang, his eyes full of admiration.

This afternoon, Feng Siniang followed her eldest grandson Wugou and Qiu Yun to learn how to do it for a day in the kitchen.

Now Feng Siniang also has an understanding of the villa, and has learned to use kitchen utensils, so it can be said that she has integrated into it very quickly.

After dinner, after seeing off Zheng Jibo and Zheng Jide, Chu Yang saw Feng Siniang wiping the table as soon as he entered the room.

He walked up to the kitchen, where Changsun Wugou and Qiu Yun were washing dishes.

Then she leaned in front of Feng Siniang, "Hua'er, your Shaobai is really delicious."

After speaking, he let out a breath on her neck.

The sudden heat made Feng Siniang feel itchy on her neck. She blushed and glanced at Chu Yang, and ran into the kitchen in a hurry.

"This little lady is quite shy."

Chu Yang looked at her back and grinned.

Some women are average at first glance, but they look good after a long time. Feng Siniang is like this.

In the evening, after everyone washed up, Chu Yang and Changsun Wugou lay on the bed, covered with two quilts. Both of them were wearing light clothes, mainly for the convenience of learning foreign languages ​​later.

"Sir, my mother asked me to ask you when this clothing store will open. She said she was going to be moldy."

The eldest grandson Wugou arched in Chu Yang's arms.

Boo!
Chu Yang kissed Changsun Wugou on the mouth, then turned over to hold her down, looked into her eyes and said:
"Now that we have obtained the Chuanguo Yuxi, it's fine. My focus of work is on the people's livelihood and the economy. The clothing store will open in a few days."

"There are also radio and newspaper matters. You will be busy then."

"Sir, my mother is right, eating like this every day is like a pig."

After speaking, he raised his foot and kicked the quilt, so that the quilt spread apart.

"Isn't it good to live like this? I really want to live like this." Chu Yang buried himself in planting strawberries after speaking.

The eldest grandson Wugou lay on the bed, embracing Chu Yang's back, closed his eyes and said, "Master, are you speaking human words? Ji Kang said that people who have no ambition are not human."

"If I'm not human, I'm not human. I'm a dog, a licking dog, woof woof woof."

"You bastard." Changsun Wugou pinched his waist with one hand.

"Ah!" Chu Yang screamed.

"I'm talking about business with you!" Changsun Wugou stretched out his hand and rubbed the place where she pinched, "It hurts."

"It doesn't hurt, just how strong you are."

"Madam, I really want to be free, but I can't. The responsibility is too great. I just hope that after the big event is done, I can be free. Then I will take care of the children, and you can go to work."

"Want to take care of the baby? If you want to take care of the baby, you have to work harder." She said sweetly while hugging Chu Yang.

After thinking for a while, he said again: "Sanggong, is there something wrong with you? Why is there no movement in Qiuyun's stomach and mine?"

"Is there any problem with me? Madame actually has to talk about the probability of having a baby. Don't worry, I'm very normal."

Chu Yang said so, but he was very empty in his heart. Although he knew that he was normal, he was a time traveler. He didn't know whether this world would allow him to live or not.

"Sanggong, why don't you try it with Siniang the day after tomorrow."

The reason why it is the day after tomorrow is because it will be Qiu Yun's turn tomorrow, so I don't need to jump in line for this matter.

"Let's talk about it then, Ma'am, let's get down to business."

After speaking, the two kissed together, and they hadn't been together for more than a month. Naturally, their love was boundless.

Feng Siniang on the third floor was lying on the bed, and seemed to hear something, so she got up and went to the window looking for the sound.

After listening for a long time, he frowned slightly, wondering in his heart why Changsun Wugou's reaction was so strong, shouldn't it just be a matter of a while.

Puzzled, he lay back on the bed and fell asleep in a daze.

Early the next morning, after Chu Yang went downstairs, the sound of washing pots came from the kitchen. He was a little puzzled, who got up so early, and Sister Zhao and Sister Liu didn't come at this time usually.

Curious, he came to the kitchen and found that it was Feng Siniang.

Then he quietly walked to her back, stretched his head over her shoulder, looked at her snow-white neck, and said softly:
"Hua'er, you're busy!"

Immediately, Feng Siniang was taken aback.

"what!"

"Master Chuchu, why are you up?"

"Why don't I get up? Waiting for you to help me pee, Hua'er, why do you get up so early."

Chu Yang spoke lewdly. He deliberately teased Feng Siniang. He always thought teasing her was fun.

"I got up to make breakfast. I heard from Sister Wugou that you get up very early to exercise, so I got up early to make breakfast."

She spoke in a low voice, shrugging one shoulder and tilting her neck.

The main reason was that Chu Yang was behind her, talking to her neck.

The weather was cold at first, and it was even colder in the morning. The heat of Chu Yang's words and the breath of his breath made her feel quite obvious, and she was especially afraid that Chu Yang would bite him.

"You don't have to do it. A servant will do it later, so go to sleep."

Basically, when Chu Yang got up, the servants Zhao Dahui and Liu Ermei also got up, and then they went to the villa to make buns and cook porridge. The flour had already been fermented and could be used directly, and breakfast could be eaten in half an hour.

The time was just right, breakfast would be ready when Chu Yang was about to finish his exercise.

"No, I'll do it." Feng Siniang distanced herself from Chu Yang.

"As you like."

After Chu Yang finished speaking, he walked out of the kitchen, just as Liu Ermei and Zhao Dahui also came. .

"Villager, if you don't exercise today, is your new wife making you tired?"

"Who can tire me, you guys make breakfast, I exercised."

As soon as Chu Yang walked to the yard, he heard Liu Ermei's voice.

"Ouch, my wife of the Walled Master, this is what makes you do it so well."

"It's okay, I'm idle anyway."

Feng Siniang said very shyly, it was the first time for her to enjoy this treatment, although she was happy in her heart, she was more uncomfortable.

She is an ordinary person herself, and now she is called like this, she feels that she is not worthy.

Chu Yang still exercised as usual. He looked into the room from time to time, mainly to see what Feng Siniang was doing, but he didn't see her go upstairs.

After a while, I saw her fetching a basin of water to wipe the floor. She didn't regard herself as a wife, but instead regarded herself as a servant.

It feels somewhat like being under the fence.

Chu Yang looked at her, as if he understood something, he had to ask her earlier so that he would have a sense of belonging.

She is completely different from Changsun Wugou and others, she comes from a humble background, and her thoughts are common people's ideas.

"Si Niang, why are you doing this?" At this time, Changsun Wugou also left.
