Li Zexuan asked Liu Yue`e to prepare a bowl of rice and ate the steamed egg soup that the villagers of Liujia Village sent over. Little brats loved to eat fatty meat, so Liu Yue`e's meat soup was mostly fatty meat. However, he didn't like to eat fatty meat, so he could only eat steamed egg soup. This made Liu Yue`e vexed, thinking that she should have prepared some vegetarian dishes for Li Zexuan!
"Sure enough, Da Niu, Er Niu, are you guys tired?"
While eating, Li Zexuan asked Hu Zhen, Da Niu, and Er Niu who were not far from him.
Hu Zhen quickly swallowed the rice in his mouth and said, "Young master, I'm not tired! I'm very happy to be able to help others! "
This child and his sister Hu Zhen were both kind-hearted. Even though many people mocked him for being a fool, he never minded it. A kind-hearted person would be rewarded with good fortune. Right now, Old Hu's family was happy, which was the best proof of this sentence!
Da Niu also grinned and said, "Young master, we're not tired! Now, the adults of Lantian County no longer call us naughty little bastards. There are even many uncles and aunts who give us eggs to eat! "
Saying this, Da Niu's face was filled with pride. Li Zexuan understood that this was the joy of being recognized by others!
Old Hu couldn't help but slap the back of Da Niu's head and scolded jokingly, "You little bastard, who calls themselves a little bastard? If your father heard this, he would beat you to death! "
Da Niu rubbed the back of his head and said with a face full of grievance, "Ah? Uncle Hu, didn't you also call me a little bastard? Why can't I call you that? "
Li Zexuan heard this and almost spat out the rice in his mouth.
Hu Hanyun's face darkened and wanted to slap Da Niu again. This time, Da Niu learned his lesson. He turned around and got up from the ground and ran away like a wisp of smoke.
"Uncle Hu, don't hit my head all the time. My mother said that if you hit my head too much, I'll become stupid!"
Da Niu hugged his rice bowl and shouted at Old Hu.
Hu Hanyun couldn't help but laugh and scold, "Young Master, look at this little bastard, he's so tough! It's all thanks to you, Young Master, for letting them do something proper. Otherwise, they would be stealing melons and stealing birds' eggs again! "
Looking at these energetic children, Li Zexuan felt as if he was looking at his own childhood. Speaking of which, he was also very naughty when he was young. "Haha! It's better to be thick-skinned! If you don't misbehave when you're young, you won't have the chance to do so when you grow up! "
Hearing Li Zexuan's deep tone, Hu Hanyun secretly guessed that Li Zexuan was most likely thinking of his childhood at Mount Longhu. Therefore, he didn't know what to say at the moment and could only eat silently.
However, children could not feel the troubles of the adult world. After a while, Er Niu raised his head and asked, "Young Master, I heard from my mother that we are going to take these chickens to another county tomorrow. Is it true?"
Li Zexuan smiled and nodded, "It's true! What? Erniu, you don't want to go? "
"Yes! I want to go even in my dreams! "
Er Niu suddenly became excited. It was likely that this brat had never been to a place outside of Lantian County before. However, his face immediately darkened. He scratched his head and stammered, "But Young Master, the other county is so far away. My brother and I don't know how to ride horses. What should we do?"
"Hey! You little bastard, you're still dreaming! Who said that we have to ride horses to another county? Where will Young Master get so many horses for you? Use your feet to walk over! "
Hearing this, Old Hu slapped the back of Er Niu's head in annoyance.
"Ouch! Uncle Hu, I was wrong! "
Er Niu cried out in pain and begged for mercy.
"Haha! Uncle Hu, don't say that! "
Li Zexuan stopped Hu Hanyun and said, "We don't know how many counties we have to go to this time, nor do we know how many miles we have to walk. It's definitely not possible to walk with our feet. Firstly, it will tire the children out. Secondly, it will affect the speed of eliminating locusts! However, some children are still young and don't know how to ride horses. In addition, the horses need someone to take care of them on the road. It will be very troublesome. Therefore, I plan to let the children ride bicycles and go to another county with me! "
At this point, he looked at Er Niu and said with a smile, "Er Niu, hurry up and eliminate the locusts. After all the fields in Lantian County are cleaned up, I will immediately give each of you a bicycle. Take advantage of the time to learn how to ride a bicycle before the sky turns dark. Tomorrow morning, we will ride and set off!"
"Ah? Young Master, you want to give us bicycles? Wow! That's great! I'll tell my brother and the others now! "
When Er Niu heard this, he immediately jumped up from the ground happily.
"Pa!"
"What's so good about it? You little bastard, scram to the side! "
Er Niu was happy, but Old Hu was unhappy. Therefore, Er Niu received another slap on the back of his head. This brat looked at Hu Hanyun with grievance and then left dejectedly.
"Uncle Hu, what are you doing?"
Li Zexuan spread his hands and said helplessly.
Old Hu said earnestly, "Young Master, you can't spoil this group of little bastards. A bicycle is not cheap. It costs a few hundred. If you give one to each person, you will have to give more than a hundred bicycles. It's too wasteful ~!"
Li Zexuan smiled and said, "Uncle Hu, they are all things produced by the workshop. The cost is not much. Moreover, you also know that many children in the Han Family Village and Plum Village don't know how to ride horses. In comparison, learning to ride a bicycle is easier than learning to ride a horse. Therefore, if we want to eliminate the locusts in other counties as soon as possible, using bicycles as a means of transportation is the best choice!"
Although Old Hu understood that Li Zexuan's words made sense, he still found it hard to accept. "Young Master, this is too wasteful …"
Li Zexuan waved his hand and interrupted, "Uncle Hu, you don't have to say anymore. I have made up my mind. This matter is settled! As for the workshop, I have already asked people to prepare the bicycles. Also … other than the bicycles, I have also prepared something good for the children! "
At the end, Li Zexuan could not help but smile mysteriously.
Hu Hanyun was speechless and could only stop trying to persuade him.
"Oh! That's right! Uncle Hu, you should also learn how to ride a bicycle later. This time, you will come with me. As for the Han Family Village, I will temporarily let Second Master Liu handle it! "
Suddenly, Li Zexuan added.
"What? Young Master, I, will go too? No, no, no! Young Master! Even if I, Old Hu, want to go, I will just ride an old horse. You don't have to waste it! "
Old Hu was stunned for a moment before he waved his hand and said.
A bicycle cost a few hundred strings of coins. Even if Li Zexuan did not feel the pinch, he felt the pinch for Li Zexuan!
"Hehe! Uncle Hu, you don't have to decline! It's just a bicycle. Moreover, you have done so much for me. It is only right for me to give you a bicycle ~! Don't worry, the bicycle in the workshop is very easy to ride. It is not tiring at all! When the time comes, you can ride the bicycle and bring the children to exterminate the locusts. I will ask the local government to cooperate with us! "
Li Zexuan smiled.
In the end, he just wanted to give a wave of benefits to the children in the two villages. After all, the Sky Pheasant Brigade had been exterminating locusts all over the world. In the end, the one who gained the reputation was himself, Li Zexuan. He could not let the others work for nothing, right?
"Bicycle with variable speed? Young Master, you can't do that! Absolutely not! A normal bicycle is enough! "
Hu Hanyun was shocked. He had heard that a bicycle with variable speed was not only sold for more than a thousand strings of coins, but it was also a priceless item. In the dark, some rich people were even willing to pay two thousand strings of coins for one but could not get it. At first, he thought that Li Zexuan would give him and the children the first generation of bicycles. Therefore, Hu Hanyun was completely shocked.
"Haha! Uncle Hu, don't refuse. This is what you deserve! I still have something to do at the workshop, so I will leave first! When the locusts are exterminated in the afternoon, let the children gather back in the village! "
Li Zexuan waved his hand and said something. Then, he turned around and left.
"Uh … Yes! Young Master! "
Hu Hanyun did not know what to say. He was stunned for a moment, then responded subconsciously. However, Li Zexuan was already far away!
…
"Mr. Wenji, Mr. Konggui, after I leave this time, the academy will be in your hands!"
Although he said that he was going to the workshop, Li Zexuan made a turn halfway and went to Yanhuang College. He was there to bid farewell to Li Gang, Yan Silu, and the others.
Li Gang nodded solemnly and said, "Yamachō, don't worry. As long as I, Li Gang, am in charge of Yunshan, I will not let outsiders offend the academy! The academy's teaching work will also be carried out according to the original plan. Yamachō, don't worry about helping the world and saving the people! "
Yan Silu also nodded and said, "Brother Wenji is right! Yamachō, don't worry about the academy. Even if someone causes trouble, there is still Mr. Mo and a group of guards! This time, Yamachō will bring the Sky Rooster Brigade to other provinces to exterminate the locusts. This will more or less increase the influence of Yanhuang College! "
"Yes! After I leave, all the affairs of the academy will be temporarily handled by Mr. Wenji. The academy's safety will be handled by Mr. Mo. I will leave Liu Feng, Liu Yun, and 30 guards here to help protect the academy. Please protect the academy's confidential information and secret tools!
In the past, Mr. Mo, Mr. Zhang San, and I were in charge of Yunshan. Naturally, the Jianghu people would not dare to cause trouble. However, this time, I will be going to another province, and Mr. Zhang San will also be going out to sea. Therefore, Mr. Mo, please be vigilant when the time comes! "
Li Zexuan grunted, then looked at Mo Huai with a serious expression and said, "Yes.
He was most worried about the academy's safety. With the advancement of several trump card projects, the academy now had some cutting-edge technical information. Even if these information fell into the hands of outsiders, they might not be able to understand it. However, it was still a hidden danger!
In the past, there were three Martial Dao Masters guarding Yunshan. Li Zexuan was naturally not worried that someone would sneak into the academy to steal information. However, now that two of the three Martial Dao Masters were leaving in the blink of an eye, Li Zexuan felt a little uneasy!
Mo Huai understood what Li Zexuan was worried about. His expression could not help but become serious. "Yamachō, don't worry. As long as I am in Yunshan, I will definitely not let the Academy be tainted by thieves!"
Li Zexuan nodded and said, "With Mr. Mo's words, I am much more at ease! After the locusts in the county are eliminated today, summon the students back to continue their classes! However, this time, I will be taking a few students with me, such as Iron Egg, Hu Zhen, and a few others. This time, I will be bringing an improved version of the telegraph. If anything happens in the academy, immediately get Qing Que to send me a telegram! "
Li Gang, Yan Silu, Mo Huai, and the others all cupped their hands and said, "Yes! Yamachō! "
…
"Marquis, the sixty-four villages in Lantian County are all willing to lend their chickens to Marquis to incorporate into the Sky Chicken Brigade! I have already asked someone to calculate. Excluding the one hundred and fifty thousand chickens from the Han Village and Plum Village, the remaining sixty-two villages can pool together a total of ninety-three thousand chickens. Currently, these chickens have all been marked and will be transferred to the Han Village in a while! "
In the evening, around five o 'clock, County Magistrate He came to the workshop and reported to Li Zexuan.
"Ninety-three thousand chickens? Yes, it's a little more than what I expected! This way, the Sky Chicken Brigade will have close to three hundred and ten thousand chickens! "
When Li Zexuan heard this, he could not help but be overjoyed. Naturally, he had arranged for County Magistrate He to communicate with the villagers about borrowing chickens. The villagers all agreed, which was within his expectations. However, a total of ninety-thousand chickens was somewhat out of his expectations!
"With more chickens, Marquis will naturally be able to return victorious sooner! I only regret that I did not let the people of Lantian County raise hundreds of chickens in every household! "
County Magistrate He smiled and cupped his hands.
Li Zexuan waved his hand and could not help but laugh and scold, "Haha! Alright, alright! Don't be a hindsight Zhuge Liang! I will be leaving tomorrow. I have already told you what I should tell you. Quickly go back to the county office to handle your official business! I should go and get the children's carriages ready! "
After that, he turned around and left with a smile, leaving behind a stunned County Magistrate He standing in the same spot!
"Get the children's carriages ready? What carriages? "
County Magistrate He muttered to himself.
.....
At the threshing field at the Han Village entrance, there were already more than a hundred children gathered. The youngest of these children were seven or eight years old, and the oldest was already fourteen or fifteen years old. If placed in ancient times, they would be considered adults!
Although the children had just returned from the fields not long ago, there was not a hint of fatigue on their faces. Instead, they were in groups of three to five, chatting and laughing wildly.
"Er Niu, did Young Master really say that? Don't lie to me! "
"Big brother, why would I lie to you? Young Master really said that, but Uncle Hu seemed to be quite unwilling. I don't know if Young Master was persuaded by him in the end! "
"Oh! That's true! I heard that the worst bicycle costs more than two hundred strings of coins. The new second-generation bicycle released by the Strange Interest Pavilion Workshop costs five hundred and ninety-nine strings of coins! Young Master took out so much at once, so he must have spent a lot of money. Uncle Hu definitely doesn't want to see Young Master spend money recklessly! "
"Sigh! If I can really get a bicycle, I'm willing to do anything! "
Er Niu told his playmates what Li Zexuan had said to him in the afternoon. It immediately caused quite a stir in the crowd. The brats naturally yearned for the legendary bicycle. Some of the brats even felt that if someone gave them a bicycle, it would be worth it even if they had to give their lives!
Just as the discussion was lively, Er Niu suddenly pointed to the east of the village entrance and exclaimed,
"Wow! Look! Young Master is here! There are a lot of people following behind him! Wow! There are a lot of bicycles on that ox cart! "
"What? Young Master really gave us a bicycle? Wow! There really are a lot of bicycles! "
"What Er Niu said is actually true!"
"Quiet! Quiet! Let Young Master speak! "
When Li Zexuan walked to the threshing field, he saw such a scene. A group of brats were looking at the bicycles with sparkling eyes. They clearly wanted them, but they didn't dare to make a sound. They were afraid that because they were too noisy, the bicycles that were delivered to them would fly away. The parents of the brats surrounding the threshing field all looked at the "pile" of bicycles behind Li Zexuan with faces full of shock!
Seeing this scene, Li Zexuan took a long wooden stick from Pang Feiji's hands and said loudly, "Alright! You guessed right! I'm here today to give you bicycles! Now, all the children will line up in two teams. The boys will be in one team and the girls will be in the other team. Those who are taller than this stick will get a bicycle. Those who are not as tall as this stick will sit behind other people's bicycles and follow me to other counties to kill locusts! "
