Like Li Jingxiao and others, there are also many gentlemen who come to buy people.
These people are here to buy maids and coolies.
Only Li Jingxiao came to see the little boy.
When others saw Li Jingxiao and the others, they were not dressed like ordinary people, and there were no bloody dramas on TV.
It’s just that it’s really difficult for Li Jingxiao to choose people.
Li Jingxiao looked at these poor children. He mainly bought children under 10 years old, who were very creative.
Watch smart people.
In his previous life, he was also the captain of a special forces brigade, and he still had a way of judging people.
They quickly selected 10 smart-looking little boys, all of whom were older than Huzi.
They are all seven or eight years old, but they look very thin. Being thin is not a problem. Li Jingxiao will provide them with food and nutritional supplements.
Li Jingxiao also gave generous money to the original families of these children.
This also led to others wanting them to take in their children.
Being able to give such a generous amount of money to the original family also shows that their children will not have a bad life in the past.
Although Li Jingxiao is very caring, he cannot ask for so many people.
Then they picked two more people, and then a group of people returned to Li Mansion.
Back at Li Mansion, Li Jingxiao asked Uncle Chen to arrange a place for them.
That is, Hu Zi's father, Chen Siyi, now mainly listens to Li Jingxiao.
Although Li Jingxiao called him Uncle Chen, he did so in private.
If Li Hongzhang knew about it, he would definitely not be happy. After all, Chen Siyi was just a servant in the Li Mansion.
Chen Siyi kept asking Li Jingxiao not to call him that, but Li Jingxiao did not agree.
Chen Siyi is in his thirties, strong-looking and somewhat educated. He used to help the Li family collect rent and he has always been conscientious.
The fact that he was with wet nurse Li Jingxiao was also a reward from the Li family.
Chen Siyi was dedicated to Li Fu and Li Jingxiao.
Without Li Mansion, he would not be what he is today. He now has a wife and children, a worry-free life, and is already doing very well in this society.
My master is also an important minister of the imperial court, and he is also a steward in the Li Mansion.
A location that many would envy.
After the twelve people washed up, they had another full meal.
The originally sallow faces began to turn slightly rosy.
At this time, Li Jingxiao and Huzi slowly walked to their yard.
They were still talking and laughing while dreaming about a better future.
Suddenly I heard a sound, and then all looked over.
Hu Zi also stood behind Li Jingxiao like a bitch.
His nostrils were bulging to the sky.
Li Jingxiao looks funny, and I don’t know who he learned it from.
When the twelve people saw Li Jingxiao coming, they also knew that they would have to obey this master's orders in the future.
So everyone saluted Li Jingxiao: "Hello, young master"!
"You guys, get up. I didn't buy you here to do hard work, and I didn't buy you here to eat and wait to die."
Next, Li Jingxiao didn't tell them any big truths, and they couldn't understand it even if he did.
It only affects later.
I just told them to listen to themselves and read with them.
During the day, they listen to their husband's class with themselves, and they also have to work hard to catch up on basic knowledge.
Otherwise, they will definitely not understand what Mr. Xi is saying now.
It was Li Jingxiao who transferred knowledge to them at night.
What Li Jingxiao teaches is definitely different from what Mr. Li teaches.
The main purpose is to teach them mathematics, physics, chemistry and other knowledge for future generations, and see if they can cultivate the first batch of talents themselves.
Later, they will be trained specifically according to their preferences.
He also gave each of the twelve people a new name, Li Jin, Li Mu, Li Shui, Li Huo, Li Tu, Li Feng, Li Yu, Li Lei, Li Dian, Li Guang, Li Wen, and Li Wu.
It wasn't Li Jingxiao who asked them to be named Li. It was mainly because he had no choice but to ask them their names.
Their names are all Goudaner, Heiwa, Gouzi and Gou Sheng, which really don’t look like human lives.
So Li Jingxiao directly gave new names to the twelve people.
Not to mention, they are quite satisfied with their new names.
Li Jingxiao also led twelve people for morning exercises every morning, doing horse squats.
Huzi must also practice together.
Huzi was trained by Li Jingxiao before, so he is still half a trainer now.
These twelve people gradually began to look good, and they looked better than before.
Li Jingxiao was also very busy, either asking for money from his father or asking for people.
Li Hongzhang also doted on his son, giving money and people to others when he wanted.
But his knowledge will also be examined. At the end of each inspection, Li Hongzhang is always smiling.
Sometimes I would secretly watch what my son was doing during the day.
If you look in the morning, you will find Li Jingxiao and a group of people standing there, motionless and not knowing what they are doing.
Otherwise, he can understand the squatting horse stance. It is a good thing to strengthen the body.
Sometimes a group of people are lying on the ground doing up and down movements, or sleeping on the ground above the waist and doing up and down movements.
He didn't understand what he was doing.
There were also times when there were fourteen of them in two rows, seven in each row, walking in unison, and he could tell a little bit about this.
It seems that his son will still be a talented commander in the future, and he can formulate troops at such a young age.
He is also becoming increasingly dissatisfied with his son.
Li Hongzhang would also take time to come over and watch when they were in class. When he saw his son sometimes having well-founded arguments with his husband, he would only scold him, "My son is too evil."
The main reason is that even he, a Jinshi, can't answer many questions, let alone Mr.
Sometimes at night, he saw his son giving lessons to twelve people. He didn't look carefully, thinking that it was his son giving them extra lessons.
It seems that it is a good thing to find these dozen companions for his son. When his son grows up, these dozen people can also become his right-hand men.
Li Hongzhang has now made all preparations to recruit troops, and the funds for his other brothers have been in place.
In addition, his eldest brother had found support from the local squires and prepared the money. They would send the money as soon as the emperor's decree arrived.
The imperial edict cannot arrive so quickly from Beijing.
…
In January 1959, it was Li Jingxiao’s fifth birthday, and a large family was still celebrating Li Jingxiao’s birthday.
A big table full of good food, at least good food for this day and age.
Compared with the spicy and delicious flavor of later generations, it is still a lot worse.
In recent years, Li Jingxiao has also been working hard to find some food for future generations.
Draw a picture yourself and ask Uncle Chen to send someone to find it. After finding it, you can confirm it yourself and then have someone plant it.
At present, the ten acres of land allocated by Li Hongzhang to Li Jingxiao include peppers, various vegetables, potatoes, sweet potatoes, corn, and preliminary improved wheat and rice.
These were all planted this year, and some of them were seeds he brought from Anhui.
Improved wheat and rice were created by him and several veteran farmers.
The old farmers were also happy because this young man exempted them from rent and gave them half of the rice and wheat grown.
So today’s dishes also include some later dishes such as fried pork with chili!
