Chapter 142 The name of the high-rise building benefits
After a series of events in front of the door, amid the lively sound, Chen Zhi led the county magistrate Xu Hui and several accompanying personnel to enter the door, went straight to the lobby, and after sitting down in separate seats, he began to talk.
"Shouyi, your article "Talks" is really good and thought-provoking. I don't like this in detail. I believe you have heard enough praises recently, but I can tell you here that the court has an imperial edict this year. I will report to the court to add a name to your famous teaching article!"
When Xu Hui sat down, he gave a big gift. Chen Ting was filled with surprise when he heard it.
Requesting the court to ask for names for articles is equivalent to seeking official promotion. The benefits are self-evident, which are similar to textbooks in later articles.
Chen Zhi naturally thanked Lianlian.
Xu Hui laughed, as if this was nothing, and then changed his subject: "I heard that you have been to Guijing Academy recently. I wonder if you have new insights?" This is showing concern for Chen Zhi's life and study.
Chen Zhi said: "Guijing Academy has been passed down for a long time. I only went there twice, and I only felt that the background was profound."
"Haha, Guijing Academy has a lot of books. I'll wait for you to read it and have another famous teaching article!"
Xu Hui and Chen Zhi chatted casually, revealing their importance and appreciation. In the past few days, Xu Hui has given the Chen family a lot of benefits. He did not just talk verbally, but only visited him after giving him a lot of convenience.
In fact, the reason why Xu Hui did this was not just because Chen Zhi's reputation was very famous. There were many people in Xuzhou, and there were many more famous scholars. Xu Hui also visited him, mostly to reflect his attitude. However, Chen Zhi's "Talk of the Master" directly saved Xu Hui a lot of troubles and solved many problems. This was a real help.
Not to mention, with the spread of "Teacher's Talk", the glory of the article's cultural and educational glory gradually emerged, and the aura that was famous throughout the ages became stronger and stronger. Anyone could see the value. As the county magistrate of the place where the article was born, Xu Hui of course had the idea of benefiting the Chen family, so he made great efforts to win over the Chen family and indirectly showed favor to Chen Zhi. He did not fail to directly give Chen Zhi benefits, but that was too explicit and would damage his authority.
The two of them said, Chen Ting and Chen Xi were with him, and his face turned red. He watched his brother and the county magistrate chatting and laughing as usual, and he was extremely impressed. At least when they saw Xu Hui, they would even say nervous words that were not smooth.
In the back hall, Chen Man looked outside through the gap. She also knew that the county magistrate was visiting today, and was curious about the majesty of the high-ranking official, but knew that it was not convenient for him to show up, so she peeped here.
Chen Man's mother, Aunt Liu, advised carefully: "Let's go quickly after a few glances. You can't rely on your brother to spoil you. You're so unruly. Your brother is now extraordinary. The mansion 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 speaks, he will definitely find a good in-laws in the future..."
As she persuaded her, Aunt Liu's face was full of longing and worry, and the complex emotions were reflected on her face and lingered in her heart.
Due to Chen Zhi's status improvement, Aunt Liu seems to be living in the clouds recently.
When Aunt Liu married Chen Zhi's father, she also had a dream, thinking that she could live a comfortable life from now on. Unexpectedly, there was an unexpected situation. When Chen Mai died, the situation changed dramatically. In addition, the legitimate son was ignorant of his skills. He thought that this would be the same in this life, but he did not expect that the whole family would be more respectful to her in the mansion, but Aunt Liu even made her think and dared not do anything that made Chen Zhi unhappy, and also demanded the same for her children.
Fortunately, Chen Zhi valued Chen Xi and was doting on Chen Man, which made Aunt Liu feel relieved. In her opinion, as long as her children can have a promising future, she will be guaranteed for the rest of her life.
When she was persuading her daughter, she couldn't help but peep at the scene in the main hall. Seeing her son Chen Xi sitting next to the county magistrate, she felt like she had eaten honey, and she was particularly happy and admired Chen Zhi even more.
"Dalang is really capable, but the more this happens, the more Xier, the more he cannot be arrogant because of his favor. In the future, Dalang's family has great achievements and great success, and he will definitely rely on his brothers to help him. This good life is still to come! You can't lose your big fortune because of small things!"
Thinking of this, Aunt Liu took Chen Man out of the back hall half-persuasion. While walking, she could see a famous servant walking over.
"Hurry! Tea! Fruit! You guys are so slow!"
In the backyard, Chen Jue was commanding. Because he was too anxious, sweat was flowing down his forehead, but he seemed to have a fire hidden in his heart and was full of energy.
He is now the manager of Chen Zhi's mansion. Apart from Chen Fu, he is the most powerful. However, Chen Jue knew very well that he could get this position by taking the lead. In terms of his closeness to Chen Zhi, not to mention Chen Fu, even the book boy Chen Wu was higher than him.
Because of this, Chen Jue worked harder when doing things. He knew very well that Chen Zhi had a bright future. As long as he could hold this thigh tightly, he didn't know how many benefits he would have. The visit of this county magistrate was an opportunity to show his performance.
Since the people in this house are all newly transferred and lack cooperation, when encountering such major events, some problems will inevitably arise. Central dispatch and handling problems are the time to reflect the value of a manager.
"I am not as close to Chen Fu and Chen Wu in terms of degree, but as long as it is useful and showing loyalty, it is just around the corner to become the young master's true confidant!"
With this idea, he was busy. Chen Zhi talked with the county magistrate in the front hall, and behind him were a group of servants walking. After finally having a little gap, Chen Jue's clothes were soaked in sweat.
At this time, Chen Fu walked from the side, looked at Chen Jue and nodded slightly, and smiled and said, "Chen Jue, thank you so much. I, the old man, can't be busy with such a thing. I have never seen such a big world before, so I'd better leave it to you to rest assured."
"Uncle Fu, what are you talking about?" Chen Jue was happy when he heard this, but he was still very respectful and looked even more respectful. "Who is missing in our mansion? You can't be missing Uncle Fu. Who doesn'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 knew Chen Fu's weight. Even Chen Chi, Chen Bian and others would praise Chen Fu's loyal servants. In addition to Chen Fu's persistence in Chen Zhi's family after the servants dispersed, it was more because of Chen Zhi's influence.
Now, Chen Fu doesn't have to work in the house, but no one dares to question him, and even tries to curry favor with him, even Chen Jue is no exception.
So Chen Fu's praise made Chen Jue feel happy and humble.
Chen Fu laughed: "Don't be modest, you boy. I'm so old and I haven't seen anything before. How can I not understand your thoughts? But as long as you are loyal, I will help you with good words..."
While talking, someone hurried over and came to Chen Jue's ear and said a few words. The new manager's expression changed slightly.
Chen Fu was also concerned and asked, "What's wrong? But what happened?" Although he looked like he was old and godly, he was actually very nervous. After all, he was visiting a county magistrate, which was equivalent to the mayor in later generations. He was an old servant, the highest figure he received in the past, but the head of other aristocratic families. He was also very nervous when he suddenly encountered a county magistrate visiting. Therefore, he would praise him when he saw Chen Jue's proper command.
"As the county magistrate talked to the young master, the two of them walked in the mansion, but when they arrived at the South Courtyard, they saw those objects." Chen Jue said as he was about to leave. "Uncle Fu, there are some rumors in the city recently. You have heard of it. This tree is in the forest and the wind will destroy it. The young master is now famous. I don't know how many people are jealous and hateful. There are inevitably gossip behind him. We naturally know that the young master is noble in character, but this is not afraid of ten thousand, but if it is afraid of if, if the county magistrate misunderstood, it will be bad."
Chen Fu understood as soon as he heard this. He knew what was being collected by the South Courtyard, so he urged him: "I have heard of it, it is really not authentic. You have a lot of knowledge, so hurry up and help."
"I'll go first..." Chen Jue didn't dare to delay, so he hurriedly left and headed straight for the South Courtyard.
When he arrived at the place, he happened to see the county magistrate pointing at something and asking Chen Zhi.
"It's just that the county magistrate learned that this object is a component of the 'curved plow'. Only after these dozens of parts were combined were complete."
After hearing the introduction, Xu Hui asked curiously: "Is this thing similar to Chen Houli?"
Chen Zhi shook his head and said, "The difference between the two is quite large. With the curved plow, the plow body can be swung, which is light and convenient, easier to till deep, easy to till, and can also adjust the depth of the plow."
The Chen Houli mentioned by Xu Hui was done by Chen Zhi in his previous life. He relied on signing the box to obtain some farm knowledge and the Mohist institutions, and tried to combine it to improve production efficiency. However, the military affairs were heavy and there was really not much time to improve it, so he only made a foundation and wanted to wait for it to be improved slowly in the future. Unfortunately, this day did not come.
Xu Hui was just asking casually, and he heard that Chen Zhi had been willing to do farming and cooperated with him recently in order to maintain his hopes.
This is not surprising. In feudal society, most famous scholars were landlords. It was common for them to gain fame by compassion with tenants and pay attention to farming. It was Xu Hui, who also mentioned farming this time, wanted to take advantage of Chen Zhi's reputation to add points to the work of persuading the farming edict.
However, Xu Hui did not think that Chen Zhi could really make any achievements in this regard. When asked, he was just a routine matter. Unexpectedly, Chen Zhi's introduction to Quyuan Pier was so special. Several of the key points were so good that Xu Hui could hear them even if he was not good at farming.
"You said this plow can swing and swing? Can it also adjust the depth of farming?" There was suspicion in his expression.
Chen Zhi nodded and smiled and said, "The county magistrate can try it. The components of this plow have been perfected and can be used assembled." The curved plow was made by him combining mechanism techniques and farming, and combined with later memory. According to the original history, it will not appear until the Tang Dynasty.
In other words, although this object is a farm tool, it contains high technology that is hundreds of years ahead of it!
