"It feels like your mood is up and down today." When leaving the Political Yuan, Liu Bei said to Chen Xi with some curiosity.
"There are so many weird things today. By the way, let me ask your highness where the peanuts were found." Chen Xi sighed and said, "But let's ask tomorrow."
"What's for lunch?" Liu Bei said casually, leading Chen Xi outside the palace.
"Well, it's a relatively reliable oil crop." Chen Xi nodded and said. Currently, Han Dynasty mainly has two types of meat oil and soybean oil. The rapeseed required for rapeseed oil currently does not produce reliable oil, and the cost of sesame oil It was too high, so soybean oil was mainly popular in the end.
By the way, the oil-pressed bean dregs were used by Chen Xi to make bean dregs cakes. However, due to the continuous improvement of oil extraction technology, the bean dregs cakes originally used for human consumption have become eaten by livestock, because the oil-dried bean dregs , the taste of the bean dregs cake is really too much.
But it’s still okay to use it to feed cows, horses, etc. In short, there won’t be any residue left.
"Oil crops." Liu Bei nodded. He didn't know whether he understood it or not, but it wasn't a big deal. Even if he didn't understand it, it didn't seem to have any impact.
"Actually, this is more about industrialization issues. After all, soybeans are not suitable for all parts of the Central Plains." Chen Xi gave a simple example, "Peanuts can be regarded as filling gaps and relatively unsuitable areas."
Liu Bei nodded, and Chen Xi didn't say anything else. He could guarantee that Liu Bei didn't understand.
"Speaking of which, Duke Xuande suddenly acted as a matchmaker for Boning's son..." Chen Xi touched his chin and changed the subject. He didn't think Liu Bei was such a boring person, and he wasn't Zhang. Zhang really liked being a matchmaker. Liu Bei Don't like it.
"Just look ahead." Liu Bei and Chen Xi had not left the palace yet, so they did not board the car. However, at this time Liu Bei coughed twice and asked Chen Xi to look ahead.
"What's ahead..." Chen Xi asked habitually, but he had already turned his head and saw the person Liu Bei wanted Chen Xi to see.
"That's about it." Liu Bei sighed and said, "Bo Ning is upright and selfless, but I saw his son climbing over the wall to seduce Gongyou's daughter."
"A perfect match." Chen Xi sighed, "Get on the bus, get on the bus, just pretend you didn't see anything. I believe Gong Heng can deal with his father. After all, he was hung up and beaten for so long, but he didn't succumb in the end." , I still have ambition.”
"Bo Ning treats Gong Heng too harshly." Liu Bei said as he got into the car.
In the entire Chang'an circle, Man Wei should be the poorest among the second generation. As his father is the most powerful Ninth Minister, if Man Wei didn't speak, no one would be able to tell.
That's it, Man Wei didn't cheat or get on other people's pirate ships. He relied entirely on his own ability to make money to support himself. To be honest, this is already great. By the way, this is also why Liu Bei didn't pursue Man Wei at all after he knew the cause and effect, and he didn't beat him. The reason for being so favored.
Even Liu Bei himself felt that Man Chong was too harsh on his eldest son. Even Liu Bei was not like this to Liu Chan. If nothing else, there was no need to be like this in terms of access. Not to mention luxury, at least one should stay in this circle. The level of the central government is not good.
"Each family has its own faults. At least the sons raised by Boning can maintain their integrity. Even if they are not enterprising people, with their abilities, Boning will be able to rank among the two thousand stones a hundred years later." Chen Xi He smiled and said, Man Chong is indeed too strict in this aspect, but I have to admit that even after reaching that point, he still did not follow the evil path of the universal concept. This is his malleable talent.
In fact, a large part of the reason why Man Wei and Sun Min got together was because they were considered different types in Chang'an's circle.
Sun Min took an evil path at the beginning, and at that time, Sun Min's circle was full of relatively reliable ladies. Even Ji Xiang, who was unreliable, had no problem pretending to be a human being.
Therefore, after discovering Sun Min's situation, Mi Zhen and others hinted that Sun Min should leave as soon as possible. Unfortunately, Sun Min was in need of society and respect at that time. Mi Zhen and others used their own situation to persuade her, but it was useless. This stimulated Sun Min.
This was the reason that caused Sun Min to withdraw from the industry. Although Sun Min later discovered his own problems as he got older and grew up, it was actually too late by that time.
As for Man Wei, it's easy here. He couldn't afford to play with others before, so he walked a righteous path on his own, and then he was hung up and beaten.
Both of them were taken care of by their parents, and as the saying goes, good things don't go out and bad things happen thousands of miles away. They are on the fringes of the circle themselves, and they don't want to communicate in depth with others. Now they have completely withdrawn from the circle. Although everyone knows that these two people are very powerful, but There are very few people with whom we interact.
"Let's have mercy on each other." When Liu Bei's carriage passed Man Wei and Sun Min, Chen Xi slightly opened the curtain, glanced at Sun Min who was covering her mouth and smiling brightly, then lowered the curtain and said to Liu Bei, "They are not recognized by their parents or peers, but it is undeniable that they are indeed very powerful, especially in the eyes of people who understand."
"Yes, without the urban construction design and planning, Gongyou's daughter still maintains the business of the top ten wealthy merchants in the Central Plains, and has not seen the slightest decline. I have not seen the slightest dissatisfaction on the face of the charity money distributed at the beginning of the year. Give up and hesitate." Liu Bei said with emotion.
"Mr. Xuande, what do you think is the difference between spending your own money and spending your parents' money?" Chen Xi asked with a smile.
"Maybe I feel more at ease spending the money I earn." Liu Bei replied casually.
"Not only that, the biggest difference is that when faced with something that you think is right but your parents think is wrong, you can bet every coin in your pocket without hesitation, as long as you think it is worth it." Chen Xi Said very seriously.
"What do you mean, those two little guys have the confidence to practice their own beliefs?" Liu Bei said with a smile.
"At least I know that although Gongyou said he didn't know about it, if he knew it, he would definitely be happy to see it happen. As long as Boning can't stop it openly, Gongheng can solve the matter himself." Chen Xi said with a smile, "No. If you underestimate a young man who has analyzed the code one by one, he may not be as good as Bonin in terms of accumulation, but Bonin may not be stronger than him in finding faults."
Wei was well-known for his integrity, and he rose to the rank of Weiwei. This was not an official position that could be obtained by relying on the influence of his elders. Without real talent and learning, forget about the position of Jiuqing. As for the reason why Man Wei capsized, Man Chong was too strict with Man Wei, so much so that Man Wei wanted to give his son a relaxed living environment, but then he was too lax, and in the end he was dragged down by his son.
"As far as I am concerned, I am happy to see the outcome." Liu Bei said with a smile. He and Sun Qian had a very good relationship, and Sun Qian was just a daughter who caused such a big trouble. Although the matter was stressful, After going down, Sun Qian also divided some of his rights, but Sun Min's reputation was damaged. After all, this era was not the era where poverty was laughed at but prostitution was not laughed at.
Although Sun Min is indeed very rich and brings a huge dowry with her when she marries, those families who are currently on par with Jiu Qing may not be willing to marry him.
There is a saying that marries a virtuous wife, and marries a concubine with a lustful wife. The first wife can be ugly, she can have no dowry, she can remarry, but virtuousness is the first rule, and I can't pass this one. I'm sorry, my family doesn't want to wipe out the family!
This is also the reason why Sun Min has never left a family. Relatively speaking, what he did before was indeed a bit unethical. Now that these two unlucky children are getting together, Liu Bei is actually happy to see it happen. Of course, Chen Xi is also very fond of it. Good news.
As for Man Chong, what, Man Chong doesn’t know?
"Is this the way to Taixue?" Chen Xi originally thought that Liu Bei would take him to his place to have a meal, but he didn't expect that Liu Bei would actually take him here.
"Well, there is a new teacher in Taixue." Liu Bei nodded, "I will take you there to see him. He is a very powerful teacher. I personally invited him here."
"What?" Chen Xi looked at Liu Bei in confusion, "Aren't those the teachers at Taixue? Is there anyone in the military academy who is more powerful than the fake Marquis of Huaiyin?"
"It may not be as powerful as the Marquis of Huaiyin, but I feel it is comparable to him." Liu Bei said with a smile, "I just want to bring you to get to know him."
"An immortal crawling out of a grave?" Chen Xi asked with a bit of helplessness.
"Although there are some problems with this statement, most of those who can compete with those gods and men are in the soil." Liu Bei sighed and said. He didn't know how to refute Chen Xi's statement. After all, Chen Xi said it very well. The truth is, these are the guys in the grave.
"Whose grave is this being dug up again?" Chen Xi said speechlessly, "But think about it, there are only a few people who can rival Huaiyin Marquis, grandson? Wu Zi?"
"Ahem, you'll know when you get there." Liu Bei coughed twice, a little helpless at Chen Xi's statement, calmed down his expression, and then said quite gently.
"That's not right. I asked the fake Marquis of Huaiyin. Lord Shang's obsession was to plant grass on every family's grave. With Lord Shang's ability, he nailed the coffin board with a sliding lid. Then Even if a group of fierce men can pry open nails, they can't do it so quickly." Chen Xi said with some confusion.
It goes without saying how powerful Shang Yang is, let alone using the raft made by Bai Qi. Even if there are many giants who are on the same level as these two, Shang Yang has the upper hand after all. Although he will definitely not be able to kill these people, he will lag behind the opponent. No problems for decades.
Bai Qi told Chen Xi personally, and based on Bai Qi's words, Chen Xi conservatively estimated that Shang Yang should have crucified this generation. At least no one in this generation would raise the coffin. But how long has passed now, Liu Bei Tell that there is another giant who is revisiting the past.
Are you kidding me? Do you look down on either Bai Qi or Shang Yang?
