"Xiao Lan, you can't eat beans anymore. You'll feel bloated when you sleep at night."
In the Li Family Zhuangzi's small bean field, Li Yi stopped Xiao Lan, who still wanted to eat roasted beans.
The three of them ate potatoes and beans. There were streaks of black ash around their mouths and faces.
They didn't need to eat dinner. When they were free, they helped to collect the beans in the field.
"I think the field is other people's. The more I eat, the more delicious it is." Xiao Lan found that eating like this felt different.
"Yes, stealing other people's sweet potatoes and breaking other people's corn cobs always feel better than our own."
Li Yi nodded with a smile. Yes, when he was young, he took stolen sweet potatoes to the commune's rice field in winter and roasted them with straw. They were especially delicious.
But there was one thing he had to pay attention to. He had to stay away from the stacked straw.
Children in the countryside learned to behave under the sticks and belts of adults from a young age.
It was okay to steal ripe things, but not to harm them.
It was okay to pick cucumbers planted by other people by the river and eat them. Choose the medium tender ones and don't touch the small ones.
No matter whose field it was, they had to walk through the furrows. Stepping on the seedlings was called cheating.
Once they were off the ground, they couldn't touch the big cucumbers tied with cloth strips. They were planted by other people.
Picking cucumbers and pinching their butts didn't involve pulling the vines. The rope tied to the frame was loose and tied it well.
How to pick vegetables in one's own field was the same as how to do it in other people's fields. Stealing was stealing, but it was two different things.
When neighbors were chatting, the other party would say, "Your child is so good. He helped my cucumber field kidnap again."
Their parents smiled and promised, "I'll beat him when I get back."
The neighbor said, "My child also needs a beating. You can't beat the child blindly. It's not good for the child's health."
So the two parties began to talk about how to beat the child happily.
Now it was stealing other people's beans. They helped to collect them and tied the bean stalks with straw ropes.
Li Yi was in charge. Princess Yongmu and Xiao Lan cooperated. They didn't know how to do it.
Li Yi skillfully did the farm work. He pulled the bean stalks and kicked the soil. If he used too much force, the beans would fall out of the pod.
"Take them back and use the flail to make beans. Let them dry in the sun for two days before returning them to the warehouse." Li Yi wiped the sweat off his face. There were even more underhanded tricks.
Princess Yongmu brought Xiao Lan to help pick up the fallen beans on the ground, and her face was filled with happiness. She felt like she had found someone to live with, just like a farmer.
Of course, that was just her own opinion. Li Yi would not admit it.
If such commoners were happy, why would he need to take out a large number of tools to help?
"Li Lang, after the autumn harvest, there will be people coming over to exchange new grains for old grains. One bushel for one bushel. Zhuangzi will exchange half a bushel of fine bran for half a bushel of rice chaff."
Xiao Lan picked up the beans and placed them on the ground. She gathered them into a small pile and told Li Yi.
Li Yi wasn't usually in charge of such things, and Song De didn't care either. He only looked at the accounts.
There were six stewards in the manor, and there were stewards under the stewards. The relationship between the managers and the department managers was like that between the managers.
"We're all used to living a hard life. How can old rice be more fragrant than new rice? It's just that there's more meat after cooking. Is the bran still fine? "
Li Yi suddenly thought of a skit. Exchanging rice for old rice with new rice was definitely not a one-to-one ratio.
The central idea reflected in the skit was not the food problem in the people's lives. In fact, it reflected from a side angle that everyone loved to eat new rice.
"It's beaten into powder. Our Zhuangzi's equipment is good. Take it back and add some noodles and wild vegetables. It's okay to make steamed dumplings without cutting the throat."
Xiao Lan nodded vigorously, indicating that the commoners didn't suffer a loss. The bran and rice chaff were like noodles. They couldn't be used as pillows.
"Is there anyone who can exchange popcorn sticks?" Princess Yongmu looked at the bean stalks and asked.
The bean stalks were processed into feed pellets for the ruminants. The feed pellets were made by the machine that made the popcorn sticks.
"Yes, there are people who want to make popcorn with new grains. Sorghum, rice, and yellow rice can't be popped. They contain too much moisture."
Xiao Lan continued to answer. She began to secretly collect information about Zhuangzi.
No one taught her. She understood it herself. Just like when Princess Yongmu used to live in the palace, Xiao Lan was in charge of various affairs.
She was a personal maid. There were specialized people in charge of other affairs, but she still interfered.
She could not directly interfere, but she could not not understand. She was afraid that Princess Yongmu would be at a disadvantage.
She lived her life for Princess Yongmu. Others treated her as a human, but she was a human. Others married Princess Yongmu, but they did not treat her as a human. She did not have a sense of existence.
"Xiao Lan, I'll give you a few books to read when we go back. They're about management. If there's anything you don't understand, ask me."
Li Yi tied up another bundle and said to Xiao Lan.
"Are these the books that Bi Zaifu and the others read? I read them too. "Xiao Lan was very happy.
"There are similarities, but there are also differences. The administrative management of officials includes a lot of content. The administrative management of enterprises is only for the sake of stability and the pursuit of profits.
The government office is based on the interests of the people, while the company group is focused on money.
The similarity is that the responsible group needs to assist the ruling forces to fulfill their social responsibilities.
The difference is that the existence of the group is based on survival and development.
The group is more flexible to the outside world, and the government office is more stable to the people.
The relationship between them is very complicated. A large group can control the political power of a small country. "
Li Yi was willing to train Xiao Lan. Xiao Lan was used to these things. She did not see management as a burden.
The three of them talked. After finishing their work, they went to the hot spring sink to wash their hands and faces. They took the remaining two roasted potatoes and a bowl of roasted beans and walked back.
They did not care about the bean stalks and beans. Others were responsible for them.
They walked back to the cafeteria and were about to eat some fruits before going back to rest. The three of them found that there were fewer people.
The people in power and not in power were all gone. Li Longji and the others were there.
"Third Brother, where did they go?" Li Yi was not used to it.
"They're going to Luoyang soon. They went home to pack their luggage. Their families will follow them. They have to account to the officials in Chang 'an."
Li Yi placed a braised pig trotter and a bunch of white wine in front of him. He told Li Yi about the situation.
"Our cruiser left first. It's slow and there are many boats on the river. It's the last period of navigation."
Li Yi remembered that he was going to spend the New Year in Luoyang this year in Henan Province.
He actually wanted to go to Kaifeng to take a look. It used to be Bianliang in Tokyo.
Beijing probably could not be the capital anymore. Every capital was actually shouldering the task of fighting the enemy on the frontline.
Nanjing used to be the capital too. Later, it could not be used as the capital because it needed to deal with the countries in the north.
As long as a country's political power still had fighting spirit, it would never put its capital in the most stable place.
The capital had always been at the forefront, including the capital of India during Li Yi's time.
In fact, they were just in the range of Li Yi's country's rocket launchers.
Yes, rocket launchers, not rockets or missiles.
Li Yi still wanted to put the political center in Chang 'an. He wanted to complete some deployments by land.
In terms of sea routes, was it possible to build a capital in Guangzhou? It was not suitable.
Yizhou was not suitable either. Although it was called Chengdu, it was not Chengdu.
It was too far away from the sea and the road was steep. There was no sense of urgency there.
If he wanted to continue to expand, the more land routes to the north, the better.
