Chapter 181 The role of the waterwheel

Chapter 181 The role of waterwheel

Come and go in a hurry.

Not only Xiao Dezi, but also Li Jihe rushed back on the day he sent the gift.

This is probably the rule of doing things for the royal family. Liu Yi shook his head and started to carry the lamp. Together with Lao Liu, Liu He and the others, he counted the gifts sent by Li Jihe and Xiao Dezi during the day.

Silk, jade, gold, ceramics, jewelry, and many things they have never even seen before.

"Yi," Lao Liu looked at a jade Buddha in his hand and said to Liu Yi: "Although my father doesn't have much knowledge, he can see that these things are extraordinary things, and they are definitely not something ordinary people can own, let alone gifts. Who are your friends? Why did you take action, it's such a priceless thing?"

"Yes, one." Liu He touched a piece of red silk and also said to the side: "I have seen this kind of silk before. It is only affordable for those rich men. One piece requires at least thirty cents of silver to buy. They gave so much at once, and this is also..."

It seems that Lao Liu and Liu He were frightened by these gifts.

Liu Yi smiled lightly, gently put down the exquisite porcelain bottle on his hand, and said to Lao Liu and Liu He: "Dad, mother, just don't worry. These two friends are among the few big families in Chang'an City, all serious families. These things may be very expensive in our eyes, but in their eyes, they are ordinary. You don't have to take them to heart, just treat them as ordinary gifts, and just put them away."

Liu Yi did not want his family to know too much about some things, not to keep a mystery, but that Lao Liu and the others knew it would be useless, and they also wanted them to worry, worry, worry, and worry about themselves, and it was not worth it.

"Well, that's right, it's because my father and mother are too concerned." Lao Liu nodded gently. For those really rich big players, this is really nothing.

"Well, it's the young man who is good at it." Liu He put down the silk, walked lightly to the jewelry and jade they had just put, picked up a pair of pure white silver hairpins, put them on his head and competed back and forth in the bronze mirror, nodded and said to Liu Yi: "I'll send this to Chuchu tomorrow, and there's one of these red silks. I didn't have it at home before, and there was a saying. Now that I have it, I can't treat our Liu family's daughter-in-law badly anymore."

"I understand, mom." Liu Yi put a pottery into the ceramic pile and nodded to respond to Liu He.

"Also," Liu He put down the Yinchai, looked at Liu Yiu and said, "As we see our family's life getting better and better, our family has become much more prosperous, and we have far surpassed our in-laws. However, you must not look down on your father-in-law's family because of this. We will not be the kind of person who dislikes the poor and loves the rich."

"Mom," Liu Yiuan stood up, walked to Liu He's side, helped her sit down on the chair beside him, reached out and pinched Liu He's shoulders, and said to her with a smile: "I'll pay attention to all these, so I'll rest assured. Do you think of her eldest son, like a person who dislikes the poor and loves the rich?"

"Hehe, you kid." Liu He squinted his eyes and chuckled. Liu Yi's modern massage technique made her feel relaxed and comfortable.

At this time, Lao Liu also put down the things in his hand, got up and sat on the chair next to Liu He, took a sip of tea on the table, and asked Liu Yi: "Yi, seeing that your wedding date is approaching, should we move all the belongings of this family to the new house? I heard from my in-laws that the new house has been basically completed, but we have moved in."

"Dad said," Liu Yipeng gently pinched Liu He's shoulders that seemed a little stiff due to overwork, and said honestly to Liu: "I'll go to the new house tomorrow. If possible, I'll start moving tomorrow."

"Oh, that, dad." Liu Yi's subordinate did not stop, looked at Lao Liu with a despise and said to him: "When I went to Xiaer Village today, I saw that the water in the ditches had bottomed out. I think it would be completely dried up in two days. I think it would be better to send someone to the ground to dig a well. Otherwise, if the rain did not rain on this day, the crops in the ground would probably be harvested."

"Well, let's follow you." Old Liu nodded helplessly. The situation was better than people. Although it cost more than five hundred cents, it was worth it compared to his harvest of one hundred acres of fertile land in one season.

And he also heard about what happened today. With the water truck built by Liu Yi, the well water irrigates the fields and the well water irrigates the land, it is not worse than the windmills and tube trucks in the canal. Now many households in the village have begun to imitate Liu Yi, and have ruthlessly plucked shovels and dug deep wells in their respective fields.

Once and for all, Lao Liu has figured it out.

"Water water irrigates the fields? And it's successful?" Gongsun Wenda, who was having a headache about the dry land, stood up from the chair, looked at the tenant farmer below excitedly, and asked him in disbelief: "What you said is true?"

"Reply to the master," the tenant farmer bent down and said respectfully to Gongsun Wenda: "Everything that villain said is true. The water truck of the new owner can indeed absorb the well water from the deep well for irrigation. The speed of water outflow is not inferior to that of the ordinary water trucks used in the canal. Usually, only one person or one cow can continuously obtain water to irrigate the fields, which is convenient."

"At that time, even the county magistrate of Sanyuan went there in person. The villain could see clearly. The county magistrate always praised the water truck." The tenant farmer was afraid that Gongsun Wuda would not believe it, so he moved Li Zhide out.

"Zhide?" Gongsun Wenda nodded, knowing that his brother-in-law must have received some letter before he would be present. He waved his hand to signal the tenant to go down and said to him: "Go to the wealth room to withdraw 500 cents, and you can go back."

"Yes, master, thank you for your kindness." The tenant farmer bowed with grin and bowed and slowly walked out of the door.

"Ah Yi, go and prepare for me. Tomorrow morning, I will go to Gutian Village. Well, say hello to the young master and let him go together tomorrow. Don't let him stay in the martial arts hall all day, thinking about the bone removal technique." Gongsun Wenda ordered Gongsun Yi who had been standing aside.

"Yes, the second master." Gongsun Yi bowed to Gongsun Wenda, then turned around and withdrew.

"A nephew, haha, you are really good at creating surprises for people." Gongsun Wenda sighed with a chuckling, then got up and went to the inner room.

"Jing Guan? Haha, it's a blessing for a nephew to think of it." Yang Bofang sent away the servant who came to report the news and said to his wife Yang Li with a smile: "Our nephew is a genius. He is almost all good at medical skills, fists, calligraphy, and farming. I feel very comforted that Uncle Liu's family has such descendants. Haha, I feel very comforted."

It can be heard that Yang Bofang smiled very comfortably.

"Why, the master wants to go and see it in person?" Yang Li picked up a dress, put it on Yang Bofang's body, and asked softly.

"I really know that my husband is better than my wife," Yang Bofang pulled his outer skirt upwards, looked at Yang Li and said, "I have this intention for my husband."

Yang Bofang pulled Yang Li to sit down and said to her: "Not to say that he would congratulate a virtuous nephew, just for the two hundred hectares of fertile land in our field, so he should go for a trip for his husband."

"Well, what the master said," Yang Li nodded lightly and said to Yang Bofang with a smile: "But in another seven days, it will be a happy day for a nephew to start a family and establish a house. The master said that what gifts should we give us as uncles and aunts?"

"This, madam, just make the decision. As a big man, how can you think about this?" Yang Bofang pushed the matter and left all the questions to Yang Li to deal with.

"You," Yang Li looked at Yang Bofang with a angrily look, knowing that he always looked like this, so he was too lazy to argue with him anymore.

It's night in Chang'an City.

Li Zhide led a few yamen runners to drive the water trucks he had been asking for from Yuan Fang into Chang'an City.

Because tomorrow Li Shimin will open an altar to worship the heavens and pray for the protection of the gods. Therefore, tonight, following the common etiquette, Li Shimin must sleep in the air to show his sincerity and cannot meet foreign guests.

Therefore, Li Zhide was unable to enter the palace and was a saint. He did not want to share the merit with others, so he had to wait outside the palace.

At this time, Li Jihe, who was rushing back from Sanyuan in the East Palace, had reported to Li Chengqian that Liu Yi had well irrigated the farmland.

Li Chengqian walked back and forth two steps in the hall, excited, excited and undepressed. This was a huge good news. If he was the first person to report to his father, then...?

Li Chengqian stopped, looked up and asked Li Jihe, "You said that the county magistrate Li Zhide of Sanyuan has transported a water truck to Chang'an?"

"Yes, Your Highness the Crown Prince." Li Jihe nodded.

"Well, then he must have not had the chance to meet his father at this moment." Because of the sacrifice to heaven, it is difficult for him, the prince, to see Li Shimin, let alone a county magistrate? This is an opportunity. Li Chengqian resolutely raised his hand and ordered Li Jihe: "Jihe, please send someone to find Li Zhide for the orphans. After finding it, be sure to bring him and the water truck he brought to this East Palace."

"Yes, Your Highness!" Li Jihe bowed to Li Chengqian, then turned around and retreated.

If you have this water truck, would you still have to sacrifice to the sky like this?
