Datang Live Room

In the county government office, Mr. Liu entered the county magistrate. Instead of being beaten first, he was called into the inner hall by County Magistrate Chen.

"Mr. Liu, do you know how much risk this county took to save you today?"

"Save me?" Master Liu looked confused. You have fined me 80 strings today. Do you know how much 80 strings is?

Even his net worth will be severely peeled off.

"Haha, you still haven't understood? The young man standing with Bei Lao's second nephew is Zheng Zhixun, the young master of the Zheng family in Yangping Town! How many lives do you dare to fight with the Zheng family?"

Mr. Liu was shocked and asked stammeringly: "Really...really the young master of the Zheng family?"

"Do I need to lie to you? Otherwise, given our relationship, how could I embarrass you like this? If I hadn't helped you settle things like this today, what do you think the Zheng family would do to you afterwards?"

Mr. Liu felt chills run down his spine when he heard this, and he could only nod his head: "Thank you, thank you, Mr. Chen, for today."

"Yeah!" Chen Zhixian said lightly: "Where did you get your piece of mutton-fat jade today? It looks pretty good!"

Can Mr. Liu not understand what he means? Although he was unwilling, he still took it out with a smile and put it on the table and said: "It's rare that it can catch Mr. Chen's eyes, so it's just a small thank you to Mr. Chen for helping Liu today!"

Chen Zhixian showed a sensible expression, and then said: "Okay, just go out and get a few slaps, and then have someone take you back."

"Ah? Are you still going to get slapped?" Mr. Liu's eyes widened. I just gave you a piece of mutton-fat jade, which is worth at least ten guan!

"If you don't get slapped, what will you do if I see it? If you get slapped, it's best to ask the person who carried you to let Mr. Zheng see you. Only when he really calms down can you have a good life."

Chen Zhixian secretly thought, if it weren't for this piece of jade, do you think the twenty strokes would be less?

Mr. Liu thought for a while and realized that this was really the case. He could only say with a sad face: "Then... let's fight."

At the door of the inn on the other side, Bei Laoer thanked Mr. Zheng and Yan Kai profusely.

Yan Kai pulled him aside and said: "Uncle, this time I came forward mainly for Sister Axiu. I have made a promise to you. Although you don't have to be afraid of people bullying you here in the future, you'd better not be beaten. The Zheng family’s banner is deceiving others, otherwise if the Zheng family finds out, you should know that you won’t get any good results.”

Although Yan Kai's words didn't sound good, Bei Laoer also listened to them. Why did the county magistrate turn to him? It's not because of the Zheng family. If he did something that dissatisfied the Zheng family, he would definitely not be able to bear the Zheng family's anger.

He is stingy and loves to take advantage of others. As for bullying others, he really doesn't have the courage, so after listening to Yan Kai's words, he nodded repeatedly and said: "Uncle knows, I know, don't worry. In a few days, uncle will take Axiu there. Yangping Town will send you the money."

Yan Kai was stunned for a moment, then shook his head with a smile and said: "I told you that it's for you, so just accept it without worry. Mr. Liu will definitely not dare to provoke you again in the future. If you still don't worry, just take the money with you." If we do some small business in Yangping Town, it would be nice for our two families to take care of them."

Tang Ping knew that although his uncle was stingy, he had still helped his family to some extent in the past few years. Even when his mother asked him for something, he said something unpleasant, but in the end he helped her, so he was still willing. Give them a hand.

As they were talking here, Mr. Liu was passed by two servants carrying him. When they saw Tang Ping and the others, they asked the servants to stop.

"Ouch... You two young masters, Mr. Bei, it's... Ouch... I, Liu Fugui, did something wrong... Ouch, please wait a moment, I'll ask someone to bring you the money right away."

At this time, Zheng Zhixun maintained his identity and naturally ignored him. Yan Kai nodded with a smile and said: "Then the relationship is good, I will trouble Mr. Liu. But I am a bit nosy, sometimes even if it is not my own business , I also want to jump out and take charge, Mr. Liu, do you understand what I mean?"

"I understand, I understand! Ouch!" Mr. Liu asked his servants to carry him back quickly to apply medicine, and sure enough, soon someone brought Yan Kai's thirty guan and Bei Laoer's fifty guan.

Not all of it was money, some of it was worth it with silk. Butler Zheng was there. He took one look at it and nodded, saying that the value was pretty much the same.

Yan Kai asked Zheng Zhixun to send two people to take Bei Laoer home, and they returned to Yangping Town. At this time, they should be able to arrive before dark.

"Zhixun, thank you very much for today!"

Zheng Zhixun said with some embarrassment: "Mr. Yan, I was almost beaten because of my poor thinking today."

"Hahaha!" Yan Kai thought it was funny when he thought about it. He didn't even think that Mr. Liu would deny Zheng Zhixun's name, otherwise he wouldn't have blackmailed him with a broken bowl.

"But I still have to thank you." Yan Kai said, "Do you need anything?"

Zheng Zhixun thought for a moment and said, "I can't think of it yet."

"That's okay!" Yan Kai looked at the few people carrying water outside the window and asked with excitement, "Your Zheng family should also have a lot of land, right?"

Zheng Zhixun didn't know why he asked, but he nodded and said honestly: "The Zheng family does have a lot of land."

Many of them are just modest remarks. Even the land annexation in the Tang Dynasty is not serious now, but among the top families like them, who doesn't have thousands of miles of fertile land?

Even for their house, the number of fields would scare people to death.

"I think the weather is quite dry this year. Is this true?"

Although Zheng Zhixun didn't care about the fields, he heard the housekeeper say: "Indeed, I heard that this year will be another drought year."

"In fact, although the water level in the rivers in many places has dropped, there is still water in the rivers, but it is not easy to get water."

During the few days Yan Kai was at home, he asked his uncle to borrow a donkey to carry water from the river to the fields for watering.

If you just rely on your shoulders and hands to carry it, the water you bring will really be a drop in the bucket.

So Yan Kai said: "How about I give you something that can be used to draw water from the river?"

"You mean the car rolled over?" Zheng Zhixun said: "It's not easy to send water from a low place to a high place when a car rolls over like that."

The overturned cart he mentioned was the predecessor of the waterwheel, which appeared in the Han Dynasty and was indeed not very efficient.

What Yan Kai was talking about was a keel waterwheel that he saw in a village during an outdoor live broadcast. It is said that this kind of waterwheel only appeared in the Song Dynasty and was used in our country until the emergence of electric water pumps.

In particular, the ability to draw water from low rivers is particularly strong.

So he smiled mysteriously and said, "Then I'll ask the Zheng family craftsmen to make one and take a look."

He actually doesn’t know the details of this keel waterwheel, but he has a live broadcast room!

A live broadcast preview was posted directly in the live broadcast room: "Challenge: You come up with the drawings and I will build them. Now the anchor is collecting drawings of the keel waterwheel. As long as everyone can privately message me the drawings of the keel waterwheel, starting tomorrow I will bring the Datang craftsmen to press Your drawings are purely handmade!”
