Zhang San has been having a headache recently, mainly because the conditions at home are too simple. Ever since Xiaoyu moved in, Zhang San has been sleeping in a newly built shed in the yard at night.
The habit of bathing every day that I developed in my previous life has basically been abandoned now.
After smelling the smell on his body, Zhang San thought helplessly: "If I had known better, I wouldn't have refused the house offered by Cheng Chumo."
Cheng Chumo had earlier planned to give Zhang San a house in Chang'an because Zhang San saved his life. However, Zhang San did not know Cheng Chumo very well at the time, so he rejected Cheng Chumo's kindness.
Now I just hope that my mansion will be built soon so that I don't have to suffer this fate.
Fortunately, Zhang San went to see the progress of the house again yesterday. It is basically almost completed. I think I can move into a new home by the end of this month.
What is this old boy Li Shimin doing now? Since he was appointed an official, he has stopped asking. Don't think of yourself as a pawn. I don't want to get involved in any conspiracy.
Zhang San was lying on the bed, thinking about his life after arriving in the Tang Dynasty, and slowly planning his future path in his mind. Although he went to the dynasty of Li Shimin, it was still a feudal society after all.
The social environment was not so safe in the first few years when Li Shimin came to power.
Outside there are Turks, Tubo, and Goguryeo who are eyeing us, and inside there are several aristocratic families that are constraining us.
"Let's make peace with it now." Zhang San sighed and suddenly remembered the conflict he had with Zheng Shide some time ago. He didn't know what bad things were waiting for him in the future. He had to find a way to stand firm in this society.
foot.
Thinking of this, Zhang San got up and walked back and forth in the shed, thinking about the future.
"Based on my understanding of this period of history, if I want to stand firm, I must hug Li Shimin's thigh tightly. But since the last time, I have never seen Li Shimin again. If I want to hug his thigh, I must be able to see him."
ah."
"Li Shimin, you're not really going to hide me in the snow, are you? I don't believe that you, who are so wise and powerful, will be awarded the title of baron just because I presented a horseshoe and my father and brother died in battle. There must be something waiting for me." Zhang San.
murmured to himself.
In his head, Zhang San was planning the future while thinking about how he could meet Li Shimin and how he could be reused by Li Shimin after meeting him. He fell into a deep sleep before he knew it.
The next day I woke up to the shouts of diligent Xiaoyu and my little sister.
"Third brother, get up and eat." The younger sister shouted.
After Zhang San got up, he washed his face to wake himself up, and then went into the house to prepare for dinner.
"Sir, Sister-in-law Li and Xiaolan are going to help in the fields today. I saw you were still sleeping in the morning, so I asked for leave."
Xiaoyu said while serving Zhang San rice. It is worth mentioning that at this time, Xiaoyu has been trained as a housekeeper by Zhang San. Recently, all the affairs at home have been taken care of by Xiaoyu in an orderly manner.
Although there are not many things to do now, after all, Zhang San now has hundreds of acres of fields and toffee workshops. These days, Xiaoyu follows Muramasa to the fields and toffee workshops to get familiar with them, so as to facilitate later management.
Of course, the affairs in the fields are mainly taken care of by the village leader. The entire village is now regarded as Zhang San's property. Originally, Zhangjia Village had to pay grain taxes to the county, but now it has become Zhang San's.
During this period, Wannian County Magistrate Song Dexin also came to visit Zhang San's home. After all, there is an extra prince in his jurisdiction, so he still needs to take care of the relationship to see if it will bring constraints to his governance. For now, it is still
Well, Zhang San doesn’t care about this at all.
He just walked around the village every day and rarely went to the county. Only then did Song Dexin feel relieved.
Zhang San walked around his land when he had nothing to do, and sometimes chatted with the elderly people in the village about interesting things in the village and things in the fields. At this time, what the farmer cared about most was his own three-acre land.
The villagers also had a good impression that Zhang San did not look down upon these villagers because of his change of status.
After Zhang San inspected and learned about it, he made a preliminary plan for his area. He wanted to find a time for the village leader to gather the villagers for a meeting to discuss the future development of the village. After all, this would be his future development.
base area.
In the early stage, Zhang San's plan was divided into three parts. The first was to build water conservancy. He wanted to build a few windmills near the Weishui River to irrigate farmland.
The second is to organize the village craftsmen to develop small handicraft industries. Although Zhang San has a lot of things in his head that seemed very low-level in his previous life, but now they seem to be high-tech items. He suffers from the fact that he has the theory, but lacks the practical ability.
It has never been enabled.
The last step is to establish your own guard organization to protect the manor and your family.
No matter what, in this era, you still need to give yourself more protection. Many people in the village have been on the battlefield. Although some are injured at home, they should be a considerable force through their own training.
After looking at the wheat that was about to be harvested in the field, Zhang San was full of expectations for the future.
"Third brother, there was news from the palace just now, asking you to go to the morning court tomorrow morning." The younger sister said to Zhang San out of breath.
"Okay, I understand, has the visitor left?" Zhang San finally expected news from the emperor. He was very excited, but he acted very calmly.
"When I saw you weren't there, I told me and left." The younger sister replied.
"Okay, let's go home." Zhang San touched the little sister's head.
Back home, Xiaoyu had already prepared the scarlet robe that Zhang San needed to wear to the court. This was the first time she had taken out this outfit since she was rewarded that day.
"Young Master is back." Xiaoyu smiled sweetly.
"Well, thank you for your hard work."
"Sir, do you need anything else to prepare?" Xiaoyu asked.
"No, you should rest first. I will think about the problem carefully when I go to court tomorrow. You can go play first and don't talk to me." Zhang San replied.
Going to court for the first time in his life, with an uncertain future, Zhang San actually felt a little uneasy.
Not knowing what was waiting for him, Zhang San was speechless all night. He thought about it several times in his mind and deduced all the difficulties he might encounter one by one to be prepared.
"It's a blessing, not a curse. It's a curse that can't be avoided. Let me take a good look at the Tang Dynasty meeting tomorrow." Zhang San encouraged himself in his heart.
At the fourth watch (two or three o'clock in the night), since it was a long way from Chang'an, Zhang San got up and asked Fugui to drive a carriage to Chang'an City.
