Crowned the New Han Dynasty

Chapter 143 Benefits from being named a high-rise relative

After a battle in front of the door, amidst the bustle, Chen Zhi led the county guard Xu Hui and several accompanying people through the door and went straight to the lobby. After sitting down in separate seats, they started chatting.

"Shou Yi, your "Teacher's Talk" is really good and thought-provoking. I won't praise the specifics. I believe you have heard enough compliments recently, but I can tell you something here. , This year the imperial court has an edict to encourage students, I will act as a representative to the imperial court, and add a title to your famous article!"

As soon as Xu Hui sat down, he gave a big gift, which made Chen Ting and Chen Xi's faces full of surprise.

Petitioning the imperial court and naming the article is tantamount to striving for official promotion. The benefits are self-evident, and it is almost the same as having articles published in textbooks for later generations.

Chen Zhi was naturally thankful.

Xu Hui laughed, as if it was nothing, and changed the topic: "I heard that you have been to Guijing Academy recently. I wonder if you have any new insights?" This showed his concern for Chen Zhi's life and life. The look of learning.

Chen Zhi said: "Guijing Academy has a long heritage. I have only been there twice, and I can only feel the profound heritage."

"Haha, Guijing Academy has a large collection of books. I'm just waiting for you to write another article on famous religions after reading this!"

Xu Hui and Chen Zhi chatted casually, and their words revealed their importance and appreciation.In the past few days, Xu Hui gave the Chen family a lot of benefits. He didn't just talk about it, but after giving a lot of convenience, he came to visit.

In fact, the reason why Xu Hui did this was not just because of Chen Zhi's reputation. There are many famous people in Xuzhou, and there are many celebrities. Xu Hui also visited, mostly to show his attitude, but Chen Zhi's " "Teacher Said" directly saved Xu Hui from a lot of troubles and solved many problems. This is real help.

Not to mention, with the spread of "Shi Shuo", the cultural and educational brilliance of the article gradually emerged, and the atmosphere of being famous through the ages became stronger. Anyone can see the value. As the county governor of the place where the article was born, Xu Hui of course became famous. Motivated by Zhan Guang, he made great efforts to win over the Chen family and indirectly showed his favor to Chen Zhi - it was not that he couldn't benefit Chen Zhi directly, but that would be too explicit and would undermine his official authority.

The two people here were talking. Chen Ting and Chen Xi were standing by and their faces turned red. They saw their brother and the county magistrate chatting and laughing as usual. They were extremely impressed. At least when they saw Xu Hui, they couldn't even say anything nervous. .

In the back hall, Chen Man looked out through the gap. She also knew that the county magistrate was visiting today and was curious about the majesty of the official. However, she knew that it was not convenient for her to show up, so she peeped here.

Chen Man's mother, Aunt Liu, was carefully advising from the side: "Just take a few glances and leave quickly. You can't rely on your brother to pamper you. There are no rules like this. Your brother is extraordinary now, and the house will become more and more prosperous in the future." , you have to be more obedient to make your brother value you. As long as he opens his mouth, he will definitely find a good husband in the future..."

After admonishing and admonishing, Aunt Liu's face was full of longing and worry, and the complex emotions were reflected on her face and lingering in her heart.

Due to the improvement of Chen Zhi's status, Aunt Liu seems to be living in the clouds recently.

When Aunt Liu married Chen Zhi's father, she also had expectations, thinking that she could live a comfortable life from now on. Unexpectedly, something unexpected happened. When Chen Mai died, the situation took a turn for the worse. In addition, her legitimate son was uneducated and incompetent. She thought she would live a comfortable life. That was it. Unexpectedly, things took a turn for the worse. Now everyone in the house was very respectful to her, which made Aunt Liu even more determined. She did not dare to do anything that would displease Chen Zhi, and she also demanded the same from her children.

Fortunately, Chen Zhi valued Chen Xi and doted on Chen Man, which reassured Aunt Liu. In her opinion, as long as her two children could make a difference, the rest of her life would be guaranteed.

When she was persuading her daughter, she couldn't help but peek into the main room. When she saw her son Chen Xi sitting next to the county guard, she felt as if she had eaten honey. She was extremely happy and admired Chen Zhi even more.

"Da Lang is really capable, but the more things go like this, the less Xi'er and Man'er can be arrogant because of their favor. In the future, if Dalang's family will become great and prosperous, they will definitely have to rely on their brothers to help them. The good days are yet to come! Don’t let the small lose the big!”

With this in mind, Aunt Liu dragged Chen Man out of the back hall with half-drag and half-persuasion. As she walked, she could see a servant walking past.

"Quick, quick! Tea! Fruit! You guys are too slow!"

In the backyard, Chen Jue was giving instructions. Sweat was dripping from his forehead because he was so anxious, but he seemed to have a fire hidden in his heart and was full of energy.

He is now the steward of Chen Zhi's house. Apart from Chen Fu, he has the most power. However, Chen Jue knows very well that he can get this position by seizing the opportunity. In terms of his closeness to Chen Zhi, Not to mention Chen Fu, even the book boy Chen Wu is taller than himself.

Because of this, Chen Jue works harder and harder. He knows very well that Chen Zhi has a bright future. As long as he can hold on to this thigh, there will be countless benefits. This visit by the county governor is an opportunity to show off. .

Since the people in this mansion were recently transferred and lacked cooperation, some problems would inevitably arise when encountering such a major event. It was the time to show the value of a steward by being in the middle of scheduling and handling problems.

"I am not as close as Chen Fu and Chen Wu, but as long as I am useful and show loyalty, it will be just around the corner to become the young master's true confidant!" With this idea in mind, he was busy with everything, and the front hall was Chen Zhi was talking to the county guard, and a group of servants were walking behind him. Finally, there was a little gap, and Chen Jue's clothes were soaked with sweat.

At this time, Chen Fu came from the side, looked at Chen Jue, nodded slightly, and said with a smile: "Chen Jue, thank you for your hard work. An old man like me is not busy with this kind of thing. I have never seen such a big world. It’s better to leave it to you, don’t worry.”

"Uncle Fu, what are you talking about?" Chen Jue was delighted when he heard the words, but he was still very respectful and respectful, "Uncle Fu, who is missing in our house, we can't miss you, Uncle Fu. I don’t know, only you can make the young master feel at ease.”

Chen Jue's words are not flattery. Not to mention this mansion, the entire Chen family knows the importance of Chen Fu. Even Chen Chi, Chen Bian and others have to praise Chen Fu as a loyal servant, except for Chen Fu in After the servants dispersed, they still stayed with Chen Zhi's family, mostly because of Chen Zhi's influence.

Now, Chen Fu doesn't have to work at all in the house, but no one dares to question it, and even tries to curry favor with him, including Chen Jue.

So Chen Fu's praise made Chen Jue elated and humbled again and again.

Chen Fu laughed: "You kid, don't be modest. I'm so old and have never seen anything. How can I understand your thoughts? But as long as you are loyal to the Lord, I will give you a good word..."

He was still talking here, but a person rushed over and said a few words in Chen Jue's ear, and the new manager's expression changed slightly.

Chen Fu also became concerned and asked: "What's wrong? But what happened?" Although he looked like an old god was there just now, he was actually very worried. After all, it was the county governor's visit, which is equivalent to the visit of later generations. The mayor came to visit. He was an old servant. The highest person he had received in the past was just the head of another aristocratic family. He was also very uneasy when the county guard suddenly came to visit. That's why he praised Chen Jue when he saw Chen Jue's commanding manner.

"The Sheriff and the Young Master were talking as they walked around the mansion. Finally, they arrived at the south courtyard and saw those objects." Chen Jue said as he was about to leave, "Uncle Fu, there are some rumors in the city recently. How many of you are there?" Some people have also heard that this tree is as beautiful as the forest, and the wind will destroy it. The young master has become famous now. I don’t know how many people are jealous, and it is inevitable that there will be gossips behind his back. We naturally know that the young master is of noble character, but we are not afraid of ten thousand, just in case. , if the Sheriff misunderstands, it will be bad."

Chen Fu understood it as soon as he heard it. He also knew what objects were collected in the south courtyard, so he urged: "I have heard the rumors too, and they are indeed untrue. You are knowledgeable, so hurry up and help."

"I'll go there first..." Chen Jue didn't dare to delay any longer and left in a hurry, heading straight to the south courtyard.

When he arrived at the place, he happened to see the county guard pointing at something and asking Chen Zhi.

"So that the county guard can know that this object is a part of the 'Qu Yuan Plow'. Only by combining these dozen parts can it be complete."

After hearing the introduction, Xu Hui asked pretending to be curious: "Is this thing similar to Chen Houli?"

Chen Zhi shook his head and said: "The difference between the two is not small. When working with a curved shaft plow, the plow body can swing. It is light and convenient. It is easier to plow deeply and can be easily rotated. It can also adjust the depth of plowing."

The Chen Houli mentioned by Xu Hui was what Chen Zhi did in his previous life. At that time, he relied on the lottery tube to acquire some farm knowledge and Mohist organizational skills. He tried to combine them to improve production efficiency. However, he was busy with military affairs and did not have much time. Perfect, so I only made a foundation and wanted to slowly improve it in the future, but unfortunately this day did not come.

Xu Hui originally just asked casually. He heard that Chen Zhi had recently been determined to do something in farming and cooperated in order to support his hope.

This is not surprising. In feudal society, most celebrities were landlords. It was common for them to gain fame by caring for tenants and paying attention to farming. Even Xu Hui wanted to mention farming this time, and wanted to use Chen Zhi to Dongfeng, who has become famous, has gained points in the work of persuading farmers.

However, Xu Hui didn't think that Chen Zhizhen could make any achievements in this area. When he asked, it was just a routine matter. He didn't expect that Chen Zhi's introduction to Qu Yuuli was so special. Several of the key points, even if Xu Hui didn't He is good at farming, and everyone can hear that he is awesome.

"You said this plow can rotate and swing? Can it also adjust the depth of plowing?" There was doubt in his expression.

Chen Zhi nodded and said with a smile: "The county guard can give it a try. The parts of this plow are all complete and can be used after being assembled." He completed the Quyuan Plow by combining mechanical skills and farm knowledge, as well as the memories of later generations. According to the original history, it would not appear until the Tang Dynasty.

In other words, although this thing is a farm tool, it contains high technology that is hundreds of years ahead!

"I don't know if such farm machinery and equipment can be regarded as a unique skill?"
