The attendant was shocked when he heard this.

He said: "Does the parent mean to agree to Shen Jun? If so, I'm afraid it will be difficult for Mr. Wu to explain..."

As Xu Jie's personal attendant and right-hand man, he knew a lot of inside information and was also aware of the subtle relationship between his parents and Wu Xian, and between the Xu family and the Wu family...

The Wu family, where Wu Xian belongs, has several generations of distinguished ancestors, and has produced many fierce men at the level of three nobles and nine ministers. The changes in the country have not affected the prosperity of the Wu family. Even in Wu Xian's generation, there has been no decline. To a certain extent, it has still

One step further.

And what about Wu Xian?

When he was young, this boy had a reputation as a chivalrous man, a man of justice and wealth, with a wide circle of friends, a generous personality, and a reputation as a courteous and virtuous corporal. He often played the role of a leader among his peers in Tianhai's generation. He once led a group of young friends to suppress bandits with his passion.

Over time, he has accumulated enough prestige, and many of his friends are willing to follow Wu Xian's lead and do something big!

And Xu Jie was born in the Xu family of Tianhai.

What is Xu's most well-known strength?

Rich, rich, still rich!

Heaping up gold and jade makes the princes rich.

But in terms of the achievements, fame, and foundation of the ancestors, they are not at the same level as the Wu family. There are not many descendants of the clan who can take advantage of them. At best, they can only be described as "new rich people with huge wealth." Xu Jie is in Wu Xian's account.

Next time, I always give more money and effort, but say less, and maintain a neutral stance all year round, which is somewhat affected by this shortcoming. I am kind to others and do not take the initiative to make enemies.

The attendant is very clear about this.

He was worried that Wu Xian would be jealous of his parents if he did this.

Seeing the worry written on the attendant's face, Xu Jie laughed dumbly and said: "Where are you thinking? It is still unclear what the relationship between the master and Shen Jun is. Even if the two are really at odds, at the moment

The situation must also be 'peaceful'..."

Again, Zheng Qiao is not dead yet.

It is not a good thing for the protagonist Wu Xian to be too provocative.

Jun Shen was able to deal with He Yin like this in a short period of time, which shows his ability. It is better to have one more ally than one more enemy. From the perspective of outsiders, namely Zheng Qiao, these two people can restrain each other, which is far better than a single family.

It comes as a relief.

There is a high probability that the Lord and Shen Jun will not break up.

Not only not, but they may even have close contact.

Under this general premise, Xu and Shen Jun have normal business dealings. Is there any problem?

and--

Xu Jie smiled faintly: "If we can use this to block Shen Jun's lifeline and make him rely on Tianhai unknowingly, thus slacking off his own development and turning into a subordinate vassal in disguise. He Yin will become a buffer zone between Tianhai and other forces, which will make the Lord even more capable.

rest assured."

The attendants were stunned when they heard this.

"Is it really okay?"

Xu Jie Boliang sneered: "Why not?"

Merchants also have thunderous means of killing without blood.

And this is often ignored by the world.

When the attendant saw that his parents had their own ideas, he immediately said no more. As Xu Jie's personal bodyguard and right-hand man, his duty is to protect Xu Jie's life and carry out the orders issued by his parents. Even if the order is to make him commit suicide!

Xu Jie said: "See you tomorrow, Gu Wangchao."

According to his guess, Shen Jun will not end soon.

Xu Jie's speculation was very reasonable, but what he didn't expect was that Shen Tang was not an ordinary person, and naturally he couldn't use ordinary people's thinking to speculate on it. At half past noon on the second day, Xu Jie saw the cyan color in his eyes and a sleepy look on his face. of Gu Wangchao.

Xu Jie was puzzled: "Wang Chao is in trouble?"

If you get closer, you can smell some strange smell.

Gu Chi's expression was speechless. Seeing the sincere worry on Xu Jie's face, his cold heart finally warmed up. He was silent for a while, and after Xu Jie's questioning, he sighed heavily. As soon as Xu Jie saw it, he knew that Gu Chi was finally going to show off his fox tail, and then he heard Gu Chi sigh: "I'm not the master yet..."

"What's wrong with Mr. Shen?"

Xu Jie asked very cooperatively.

Gu Chi complained to him that his lord was not a human being, and vomited bitterly: "My lord didn't know where he got the inspiration from at night, so he had to make some kind of earthen bed... Didn't Qi Yuanliang find out about this in the morning? Indiscriminate, I am innocent, the master wants to play in the mud, is that what I instigated???"

He was simply more unjust than Dou E.

Xu·Yunbi·Explanation: "..."

To be honest, he is ready to weigh his interests.

Is this the result?

That's it?

These few words from Gu Chi sounded strange together, and even the attendant beside him showed confusion for a moment.

Shen Jun......

Playing in mud???

Xu Jie then asked: "What is the Tukang?"

Gu Chi said: "It's just a bedding, with a fire under the bed to keep warm... My lord received the news yesterday that twenty-three common people died of the cold, so my lord came up with this idea."

The attendant couldn't help but express his shock on behalf of his parents: "If you light a fire under the bed, are you going to cremate someone?"

Gu Chi: "..."

Xu Jie pretended to scold: "I'm sorry!"

The attendant woke up in surprise and bowed to apologize.

Gu Chi hurriedly tried to smooth things over and said, "Don't blame him, don't blame him. It's Chi who didn't make it clear. What the Lord said about the earthen Kang is to build a high platform in the house, spread mats on the high platform, connect the chimney, and build the east kitchen stove. Lying on it can keep you warm and keep away the cold..."

This is a good idea.

Xu Jie followed Gu Chi's description and constructed a rough outline of the earthen kang in his mind, which seemed good. But he had a problem. Heating in the earthen kang required a fire, and making a fire required dry wood and charcoal fire. Since the common people had these things, they could just use the brazier to keep warm. Isn't it more convenient? Besides, wood and charcoal fire are also an expense.

Common people may not have the financial strength.

Xu Jie also asked Shen Tang these questions.

The answer is that charcoal is not safe for making fire.

Failure to maintain indoor air circulation can easily cause carbon monoxide poisoning, and carbon powder may also cause dust explosions.

Gu Chi doesn't know what kind of poison carbon monoxide is now, but according to his master, that thing should be hidden in the charcoal fire. Once it burns and volatilizes in a relatively sealed environment, if it accumulates to a certain concentration, it will cause poisoning and death?

Secondly, it is not necessary to use firewood for heating.

Hay, straw, fallen leaves or even livestock manure can be used.

Compared with some rich and powerful playboys, who arrange for young and beautiful "warm beauties" to warm their hands and warm their breasts when winter comes, or arrange for dozens or hundreds of women to take off their clothes and sit around to "warm up", this cost is already low. To the point where it’s almost gone.

There was a smile on Gu Chi's face: "If the earthen kang can be built, it will be a good thing for the people in the north."

Xu Jie listened carefully and nodded from time to time.

He added: "Not to mention that this method is quite innovative, even if it fails, at least Mr. Shen's consideration for the common people is worthy of praise. Why would Mr. Qi denounce it as 'playing in the mud'?"

Can playing in the mud and playing in the mud be the same thing?

Gu Chi: "..."

I didn't know how to answer for a while.

Answering truthfully will damage your lord's wise image to the outside world.

After all, a lord who loves to ride pigs and prays for good deeds to the point where one Buddha is born and two Buddhas ascend to heaven does not sound very smart. After thinking for a long time, he decided to leave a fig leaf for his lord's image and be vague.

Xu Jie also knew enough to ask no more questions.

He also had a better understanding of Shen Tang's "hard work". According to Gu Chi, Shen Tang came up with the idea of ​​the earthen kang late at night, and even dragged him to the construction site in the cold wind to make gestures and give passionate speeches. This is why the blue and black eyes come from.

Listening to Xu Jie's praise, Gu Chi felt bitter in his mouth.

There is still a way to survive if a colleague is involved in an internal conspiracy, but there is no way for the lord to take the lead in an internal conspiracy. Not to mention him, even if the Lord of Hell passes by the door, he will be caught by her, and she will work overtime all night to rebuild the book of life and death! ε=(′ ο｀*))) Alas, life is unfortunate!

Xu Jie probed further.

"I have some ideas about this earthen kang, but there is something missing. Isn't it convenient for me to go take a look?"

Gu Chi said: "My lord and Mr. Wu are very close friends. If there is anything inconvenient about looking at a mere earthen kang, please!"

Xu Jie: "..."

Good guy, it's only been one night.

The relationship between the two protagonists is going through the roof and heating up rapidly.

It has actually evolved to the level of "Tangdi's deep love"!

If Xu Jie didn't know that Gu Chi had another purpose, he might have been bewitched by Gu Chi's enthusiasm and lost his eyes.
