Chapter 1122: Frugality and love to save money

What you see and hear in front of you may be what you see in your life.

Li Shimin whispered: "It has given me such a headache to have such a Jingyang, so don't do this in other counties."

Zhang Gongjin also smiled. It was not Jingyang that Li Shimin was worried about, but Li Zheng.

This may also be the point that Li Shimin fears the most.

The sun is getting higher and higher, and just after morning, the sun begins to burn.

We were about to reach the horse circle, and we could see King Li Tai and Li Zheng of Wei from afar both busy in the horse circle.

Li Shimin stopped and took a look from afar, then turned around and headed in another direction.

While walking, Li Shimin noticed the ditches in Jingyang, and the water flowed clear and fast across the heaven and earth.

Seeing Li Shimin looking at the ditches, Zhang Gongjin explained: "This is a new ditche that has been opened in Jingyang in the past two years. The Jing River is introduced into the ditches and will be irrigated at noon tomorrow. After noon, the valve will be closed upstream."

There are ditches surrounding the fields, and there are even some fish in the fields.

After thinking about it, Li Shimin unexpectedly found that the layout of these ditches was almost without blind spots.

There is no need for manpower to water it, and the water flows through the fields and is already irrigated.

Li Shimin whispered: "I should ask the people from the Ministry of Revenue to see this way of ditches."

Zhang Gongjin said: "This kind of irrigation method is actually not difficult, as long as the water pressure is used."

When it comes to water pressure, it is a little unclear.

Zhang Gongjin took Li Shimin to the upper reaches of the Jingshui River, which is the junction of the fields and the Jingshui River.

Pointing to a wooden pipe at the entrance of the channel, Zhang Gongjin said: "In fact, this is a very interesting design. There is a wooden plug on one end of the large wooden pipe. When the water level rises, the buoyancy of the water will make the plug float up, so the plug will be lifted by the buoyancy, and the water will flow into the pipe and flow into the ditches from the pipe. When the water level rises again, the water pressure will press the plug, so that the river water will not flood into the fields when the rainy season is flooded."

Li Shimin frowned and looked at it for a long time, but he couldn't understand Zhang Gongjin's words for a while.

Just look at somewhere else.

It is obvious that Li Shimin didn't understand.

Zhang Gongjin said: "This is all knowledge in the academy and it is also made by the children of the academy."

Looking along the river, Li Shimin finally saw a group of children busy on the river bank.

Li Shimin soon saw Yan Liben standing among the children.

Zhang Gongjin said: "The big bull is among these children. Will Your Majesty go and see it?"

Li Shimin looked from a distance and said, "No need."

Retracting his eyes, Li Shimin looked around the camp of the Jingyang Guards again.

The guards were the same as before, and the entire camp and barracks were so clean that it was outrageously clean.

There is no difference between the others.

At noon, Li Shimin returned to the villa.

Empress Changsun was smiling and listening to Xiao Yizi talking about interesting things in the academy.

Seeing that Li Shimin was back, Empress Changsun quickly stood up and said, "Your Majesty, the meal is ready."

Li Shimin looked at the dishes on the table next to him and had to say that the dishes were very rich.

Only Xiao Yizi had dinner in the other yard, Li Shimin said: "Where are the other children?"

Empress Changsun poured a glass of wine for Li Shimin and said, "The children are all very busy. Zhinu wants to do the topic. Lizhi is busy with business matters. Gao Yang is helping Lizhi, Qingque and Li are busy in the horse circle, and there is also."

"Okay."

Li Shimin interrupted Empress Changsun's words, "The children are so busy, only I am the most leisurely."

Empress Changsun smiled and said, "It's good that the children have their own affairs, and it's also a relief for His Majesty."

Li Shimin sighed and said, "I'm worry-free. I'm afraid these little guys have forgotten that I'm their father."

Little Shizi, holding the rice bowl, picked up a piece of chicken for Li Shimin with chopsticks and said, "Father, this is called spicy chicken."

Seeing Li Shimin picking up food for him and putting it into his bowl, Li Shimin felt a warm feeling in his heart. Facing such a sensible Li Shimin's dissatisfaction with Li Zheng quickly disappeared.

Xiao Yizi said: "This is delicious, both Mingda and the emperor like it very much."

Li Shimin took a bite of spicy chicken, and I have to say it was a bit spicy.

But this spicy taste is not too irritating, and it has some advantages.

When Xiao Yizi saw his father picking up another piece of spicy chicken, he introduced: "Actually, this is all made of some minced chicken meat and minced chicken bones."

Li Shimin said while eating, "Is that true?"

Xiao Yizi nodded and said, "There is a large chicken farm in the village where a lot of chicken is sold every day, but few people buy chicken in some parts. My brother-in-law made some chicken bones and chicken minced meat that no one wanted into spicy chicken."

After saying that, Xiao Yizi picked up another chicken feet for Li Shimin and said, "This is called pickled pepper chicken feet."

Li Shimin took a bite of chicken feet. The chicken feet were cold but very smooth and tender, and it tasted refreshing and spicy.

Xiao Yizi said: "No one bought this chicken feet at the beginning because there was not much meat on the chicken feet. Later, my brother-in-law collected all the chicken feet and made them into pickled pepper chicken feet, and put them in the jar. It was delicious. People who came to the market bought them one jar at a time."

Queen Changsun also ate chicken feet and said, "It's really delicious, and it's very appetizing. I think an ordinary family can have a bowl of rice with just one chicken feet."

Xiao Yizi said again: "Many times, some inconspicuous things can often be turned into good things after being used. Chicken feet that no one wants can also become delicious food. In the words of my brother-in-law, it cannot be wasted."

Speaking of Li Zheng, Li Shimin sneered: "This kid has been very frugal since he was a child."

Li Shimin deliberately took the word "frugality" very seriously.

Empress Changsun could also listen to the taste. Li Zheng used to be very frugal, but he was so frugal that he loved money too much.

Saving money for frugality is like nature, engraved on Li Zheng.

It’s not that I haven’t heard what Li Lizhi said. Li built a warehouse at home, which is specifically used to save money.

I don’t know what this kid wants to do to save so much money?

Li Zheng almost doesn't spend money on weekdays.

Instead, you will spend money on your business and you will be able to make more money.

Li Zheng, who had just finished busy in the horse circle, sneezed, looked up at Tian Li Zheng and said, "It's not cold this day."

Li Tai was sweating profusely, and the sweat had already soaked his clothes, "It's so hot."

Xu Jingzong was very sensible and brought two buckets of cold water.

The cool water is poured from the beginning, and it is much more comfortable.

Looking at the embarrassing King of Wei and Li Zheng, Xu Jingzong said: "Chang'an Order, the army of the Eastern Expedition will return to Chang'an tomorrow."

Li Zheng poured a cold white in his mouth and told Xu Jingzong to continue.
