Xu Ping first sent a follower to Zhuangzi to inform him. As soon as he approached Zhuangzi, Lu Song had already brought his people to Zhuangkou.

After all these years, Lu Song, who has been in charge of Zhuangzi, has long been the same as before. Although seeing Xu Ping dressing deliberately simple, Fu Tai looks like a member of the staff at first glance, and even those who follow him are all white and fat.

It has expanded many times more than when Xu Ping was there. It is said to be a farm, but in fact it is scattered into many parts. Now there are thousands of people in the farm, and they are farming two or three hectares of land.

After entering the village, Lu Song took people all the way to the garden and settled in the guest room. Although the garden was still the same as before, the flowers and trees planted back then had grown, with green trees and bright flowers. The lotus flowers in the pond were green, and the buds that had not yet bloomed were erect from the green, standing upright, which was very beautiful.

Li Di and Chen Yaozuo went to the room to wash and change clothes, and Xu Ping ordered Lu Song to arrange food and drinks. Both of them were old people, so they tried to make meat and fish as soft as possible, fragrant, delicious and the best.

After changing into casual clothes, Li Di and Chen Yaozuo left the guest room. Xu Ping ordered to set up tables and chairs by the pond and asked them to sit down and bask in the sun while the weather was sunny. The weather was not hot at this time, and it was a good time to bask in the warmth.

After thinking through the matter, the three of them had a tacit understanding and never mentioned the current government affairs, but just talked casually. Li Di was loyal to Zhao Zhen and had a big temper. This time Zhao Zhen's actions made him really angry. Originally, Lu Yijian had been prime minister for so many years and had his own people everywhere. It would be difficult to take over later. If Zhao Zhen put it in again, it would be difficult to sit as the prime minister.

Political affairs are first and foremost personnel. If you cannot arrange skilled personnel in a suitable position, you will be constrained everywhere. How can this official do it? Brothers still have to settle the accounts clearly. The rights that should be fought for must be fought for.

After talking about the weather for a few words, Li Di said to Xu Ping: "The Chunze Supervisory was abandoned and there was no one to shoot a large area of ​​wasteland. Longtu bought this place with unique eyes. It seemed useless at the time, but now it seems to be very far-sighted."

Chen Yaozuo sighed: "Isn't it? Where can I buy such a good land at such a price now? How many wealthy families in the capital want to learn from the village like Xu Longtu, but such a large area of ​​land is hard to find."

Xu Ping smiled and said, "How come your two husbands think that I am cheap to buy this farm?"

Chen Yaozuo looked at Xu Ping and shook his head: "Isn't it cheap? Longtu, we know the price! At that time, the Sansili was in charge of Li Zhongxun. He himself said that the price of the place was not high several times."

"I don't give much money to buy land, but I also gave the sugar shop that I can make money every day to Sansi, and even gave the prescription for how to make sugar white. At that time, there was no sugar business. Do the two husbands know how much money can be made in a year? This abandoned Chunze Superintendent has been in my house for ten years, and the money I earned in these ten years is not as good as a sugar shop for a year!"

After hearing Xu Ping's words, Li Di and Chen Yaozuo laughed together, but they forgot the sugar shop of the Xu family back then. With the sugar shop, the sugar shop had long been abandoned and now has become part of the Sansi shop. The sugar was a luxury item at that time, and the profit was so high that it was not comparable to the money earned by digging food in the farmland. The biggest reason why Xu Ping built a farmland was not how high the profit was, but that it could be passed down to his descendants in the long run, and it was not so conspicuous.

While talking, Tan Hu came to report that Gao Daquan outside asked for a meeting with the two of them.

Xu Ping ordered Tan Hu to bring people in and said to Li Di and Chen Yao: "This Gao Daquan turned out to be a villager in my village. After I passed the Jinshi in the fifth year of Tiansheng, except for the magistrate of Yongzhou, he followed me to Lingnan. He fought with Jiaozhi and made a lot of military achievements. After he returned, he joined the imperial guards and now he is a military marquis in front of the palace."

Chen Yaozuo said: "I have heard of this name. In the Battle of Jiaozhi, the incident slowly spread to the Central Plains. I heard that the ones who led the troops to charge into battle were Gao Daquan and Zhang Rong. Both of them stayed in Lingnan, but Gao Daquan returned to Beijing."

Li Di also said: "After the battle formation, military generals who have made military achievements are different from others, so we have also met before."

After a moment, Tan Hu brought Gao Daquan and the other two in, and went in front of him to sing a promise to Li Di, Chen Yaozuo and Xu Ping.

After giving the ceremony, Gao Daquan pointed to a white-faced man in his thirties beside him and said, "This is Yang Wenguang, who is a colleague of the military with the generals in the army. Today, he went out to drink together. He is a famous general, and his father is Yang Yanzhao, the defender of Baozhou."

Xu Ping said "Oh", but he didn't expect to meet a famous figure in his previous life today. However, the stories of Yang Wenguang that he heard in his previous life were all in Romance. What was the true history of what it was like? Now he thought about it and knew nothing. Based on the difference between Kou Zhun and the Eight Wise Kings in Romance and the real person he met, I am afraid that the real Yang Wenguang has nothing to do with the image in Romance. At least his father is Liulang Yang Yanzhao, Yang Yanzhao is also Yang Ye's eldest son, and there is no Yang Zongbao, and even less Mu Guiying. His life experience is far different. And now Xu Ping knows that the Yang family is not a general. To be serious, the people in their family have always been excluded by the real generals, and suppression by themselves is accompanied by their lives.

The generals in the Romance of the Romance are the only ones related to history, the Zhe family of Taijun She, who has been guarding prefectures and prefectures in all dynasties, similar to vassal states. As for the Yang family, the Hu family, whom they like to talk about the most in the Romance of the Romance, they are not considered to be the generals.

There are indeed generals in the imperial guards, and there are two types.

One is the Cao family of Cao Wei, the Wang family of Wang Deyong, and the Xia family, etc., who have been generals for generations, and their descendants are all over the three yamen. Although there are also Cao family members who have followed Taizu to fight and started their own business, most of them have originated from the residences of Taizong and Zhenzong. If they cannot fight, the only advantage is that they are loyal and easy to control. This kind of general is a real ruling faction, and the key positions in the three yamen are basically occupied by them and their relatives.

Another type of generals is like the Zhe family in the Prefecture and Prefecture. It has a long history and is mostly passed down from the Tang Dynasty and the Five Dynasties. It was originally a small vassal town at that time, and it had a foreign background and was located in the border areas. After entering the Song Dynasty, they still enjoyed privileges in the local area. The family of the governors who governed the land was hereditary, between the vassal prefectures and counties and normal prefectures. People who came out of this generals often entered the imperial guards to participate in the war, but they could never be a general in charge of the army, the three yamen, and the military power could not be truly in charge.

As for those like the Yang family who started their military achievements in the border areas and served as generals for generations, they are not considered generals. For example, Yang Wenguang joined the officialdom with kindness and gained merit and promoted according to qualifications like other imperial guards. If there is no special opportunity, even the general of the military commander would be unlikely to be the general of the military commander, and it is basically impossible for him to be in charge of military commanders. In fact, his father Yang Yanzhao was excluded by the military commander back then and could not enter the third yamen to be the military commander, and he died of old age.
