Jingyang is getting a little bit green and yellow. There were originally many red fruits on the wild fruit trees in the mountains, but because Xiagou Village purchased a large number of wild fruits, they are now bare, with only fallen leaves constantly withering.

Li Jing and his group walked from Chang'an to Jingyang, and then from Jingyang to their hometown in Sanyuan.

Along the way, Li Jing's brows relaxed first and then ran away, because the living conditions of the people actually changed very significantly.

In Chang'an, although the civilians on the road are not rich, they can still eat and wear and wear because they have a skill to live.

When I arrived in Jingyang, I thought that the people would live in poverty, but I didn’t expect that except for the worn-out clothes, the people lived in peace and contentment. At least there was no starving to death. Moreover, Li Jing felt that the villagers there lived more comfortably than him.

However, this situation did not radiate to Sanyuan County. Perhaps the people of Jingyang County can now more or less switch from Xiagou Village to rice and flour. In contrast, Li Jing always felt that the people of Sanyuan County were living in a state of clothing, pale and thin face, and were within reach. The scene of refugees all over the mountains and fields, and even the roots of the trees on both sides of the road were dug out and eaten. How could this be a miserable situation?

Beside Li Jing, Manager Li lamented: "It's not winter yet, and it's time for winter... many people will probably die this year."

Li Jing's eyes twitched when he heard this and frowned, "Why don't you go to Jingyang to change the food? Isn't that boy willing to share the food?"

Manager Li shook his head: "That kid is not a good thing. He said he was changing it, but his rice and flour are also limited. Although he didn't know which aristocratic family he got, he only exchanged it for villagers who are familiar with Weijiazhuang. After all, our Sanyuan is too far away."

"Bastard." Li Jing's temple veins swelled up, and he felt very nervous when he looked at the 'refugees' all over the mountains and digging for tree roots and barks: "Let's go back and ask him to be my Li Jing's in-laws, and let him solve this problem first."

"Uh, you don't really plan..." Manager Li's eyebrows tightened, and he wanted to speak but stopped.

Li Jing nodded without comment: "Dalang has a good character, and he is quite a bit of the heroic martial arts of the past. If he can be brought under his command, it will be a helping hand."

"Huh~~~"

Manager Li breathed a light breath and remembered that the partner he married was Dalang of the Xi family, not the one who was lukewarm in thought. If his son-in-law became Erlang of the Xi family, he would probably have to count the money for him if he sold the entire Lizhuang.

"How old is Xiang Ning this year?" Li Jing rode his horse and suddenly asked.

Manager Li was stunned when he heard this: "The fifth girl just passed her thirteenth birthday, so she is already old."

Li Jing nodded with satisfaction and stopped talking.

Manager Li thought for a while and realized that although Li Jing didn't have many concubines, Li Xiangning, whom he just mentioned, was the daughter of one of the concubines. Marrying a wealthy family, would not be considered as a humiliation of the reputation of Li Zhuang Sanyuan.

Fu Jia, yes, in the eyes of Li Jing and Manager Li, Xi Yunfei is a rich businessman, a rich man holding two unique recipes for kimchi and yeast powder.

······

Speaking of Xiagou Village, seeing Li Jing off, Xi Yunfei welcomed another amazing big shot, but this time the big shot was still very young and immature.

"I met Xiaolangjun in the dismount Zhou. I left in Zuixianju that day, but I didn't have time to ask about Xiaolangjun's name."

Xi Yunfei struggled his mouth and made a lot of money. He thought about countless possibilities, but he didn't expect that the genius of mathematics that the restaurant met on that day was Ma Zhou, the famous Ma Zhou in the court later.

Speaking of Ma Zhou, Xi Yunfei still remembers his life vividly. He was unruly before the age of 30 and achieved nothing. At the age of 30, he was urged and invited by Li Shimin four times because of a letter of advice. From then on, he soared into the sky. His first job was directly served in the school. He looked up with Li Shimin every day and looked down at him. It was difficult to keep a low profile.

Ma Zhou was only 30 years old at that time, which happened to be the fifth year of Li Shimin's reign as emperor: "The fifth year of Zhenguan is still the ninth year of Wude, which means that this kid is only twenty-five now? As old as my previous life?"

Xi Yunfei looked up at Ma Zhou, who was half a head taller than him, and smiled slightly: "Brother Ma just call me Erlang."

Xi Yunfei is not short, now he is 1.65 meters tall. In addition, his psychological age sets up his feelings, he feels that he is at least a young man of sixteen or seventeen years old, so he calls him Ma Zhou Yi and Ma Zhou has no objection.

Of course, Ma Zhou actually happened to be a whole round bigger than Xi Yunfei, who was twelve years old. According to etiquette, Xi Yunfei should respectfully call him uncle.

Next to him, Cui Ban's head twitched slightly, and did not remind Ma Zhou of his plans. He just smiled and said, "Assistant Ma is an amazing person. I heard that the applicant said that you are the real butler in General Chang He's mansion. All the accounts in General's mansion were made by you alone, which is amazing."

Ma Zhou nodded to Cui Ban's head humbly and said, "I don't dare to take it, I just did my best."

Xi Yunfei was stunned when he heard this, and suddenly remembered his current behavior. Isn’t this someone who is robbing Li Er? But Ma Zhou is indeed an amazing talent, and now he is here to apply for the job by himself. Should I accept it or not?

As if seeing the changes in Xi Yunfei's expression, Ma Zhou hurriedly explained: "Don't worry, little brother, I have done all the things entrusted by my friend. I have also explained my intention to go before leaving and will not cause trouble to Xiagou Village."

"Ah, hehe, yes, uh......"

Xi Yunfei was very confused. He was not afraid of Chang He. He was afraid that he would ruin the future of a big man from now on. Why didn't you understand my good intentions? Labor and capital have read the "Chronicle of the Tang Dynasty".

"That, that, did Brother Ma never think about becoming an official in the court?"

Xi Yunfei couldn't help asking.

Ma Zhou was stunned when he heard this, then smiled and said, "I just want to think about it, but I just have full ambitions but no chance to show it. I will not hide it from my little husband. In today's court, poor families cannot enter, just like......"

"Shh~~~" Cui Ban Tou, who was standing aside, hurriedly reached out to stop Ma Zhou: "You kid don't want to live anymore? You can easily discuss such things?"

Ma Zhou looked at Xi Yunfei awkwardly. He was just feeling something. He wanted to complain about the disgusting actions of the aristocratic family, but he didn't expect that even the mountain valley did not have a place for freedom of speech.

Xi Yunfei waved his hand indifferently, and only then did he understand Ma Zhou's situation, the relationship between aristocratic families, or the monopoly of aristocratic families.

"Let's do this. If Brother Ma doesn't dislike him, he will stay in the village temporarily. I happened to have a novel idea recently. I just need a talent like Brother Ma to help him. If it is done, I think it's not much worse than the one who is an official."

Ma Zhou nodded slightly: "It's impossible."

Xi Yunfei clapped his hands happily and said to Cui Ban's head beside him: "Since that's the case, Uncle Cui, you can recruit people. I want all retired postal postage stations. As long as you can still run horses, you will need as much as you can."

Cui Bantou looked excited: "Is he really going to start a business with those red-haired men?"

Xi Yunfei smiled and took out a Sasanian gold coin from his arms: "Why not? Although this kind of gold coin is not circulated in our Tang Dynasty, it is still considered real gold. In the future, we will only collect gold coins. You can tell the red hairs by the way, I will exchange silver coins here, they will exchange them for one to ten, and I will exchange them for one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to one to

"Gold and silver have always been one to ten, aren't we suffering too much?" Ma Zhou said to stop him.

Xi Yunfei waved his hand: "Brother Ma is right, but I have a way to avoid losing money and make a big profit. I have to come forward to coordinate this matter. I plan to buy a mountain with General Xu."

"What Xu??? Erlang is talking about General Xu Maogong. If so, he has changed his name now and His Majesty gave him the surname Li. In order to avoid suspicion, the general deleted the "Shi" in his name. Now his surname is Li, and his name is just one."
