Chapter 37-I'm Just Letting You Experiment
After an unknown period of time, Li Jing suddenly muttered,""I regret it."
"Regret what?"
Qin Shubao blurted out. The others looked sideways at Li Jing, wondering why this guy suddenly said such a strange thing.
Li Jing chuckled." I regret that I was too late. If I had known Chuwen was so powerful, I would have taken the lead and betrothed my daughter to him."
However, it was too late to say anything now. His Majesty had already betrothed Princess Changle to Chuwen. There was no chance.”
As he spoke, Li Jing shook his head, looking regretful.
Cheng Chuwen smiled." It's not too late now. I'm very tough. Let alone two, I can take down all twenty of them. And I'll do my job well."”
"You don't think too much and aren't afraid, but I'm afraid that I'll have a long life if I snatch a son-in-law from His Majesty.”
After rolling his eyes at Cheng Chuwen, Li Jing ignored him and changed the topic."Do you think that if His Majesty knew Chuwen's thoughts, he would regret letting Chuwen take advantage of him?”
"I don't know if Your Majesty regrets it.”
" But Zhangsun Wuji will definitely regret it," Cheng Yaojin said." I'm sure of this. If he doesn't regret it, I'll take out the wine I've hidden and give it to you."”
"Old Cheng, can't you be more magnanimous? He was about to earn a lot of money, yet he was still reluctant to take out that little bit of wine?”
The generals looked at Cheng Yaojin with disdain, but they still ignored his shamelessness.
Cheng Yaojin didn't care at all and said to Cheng Chuwen,""What do you think about selling the remaining piece of land to Zhangsun Wuji and those guys?”
"This was originally prepared for them.”
"In the entire Great Tang, other than them, how can ordinary people live there?"
That place was close to the imperial palace and was the foot of the true emperor. Merchants were rich and wanted to live there, but would Zhangsun Wuji and the others agree?
As civil officials, they cared the most about their reputation and disliked businessmen the most. If they allowed businessmen to live so close to them, they would feel terrible.”
Hearing Cheng Chuwen's words, Cheng Yaojin and the others laughed out loud. Then, they began to discuss how much they should sell this piece of land for and how they could deal a heavy blow to those civil officials.
There were even some people who suddenly wanted to invest more money, but Cheng Chuwen didn't even need to say anything. Cheng Yaojin directly refused and didn't show mercy.
Cheng Yaojin couldn't be bothered with them anymore. He asked the servants to find Li Tai and Fang Yiai and prepared to hand this task to them.
Disciples were meant to be coolies for their masters.
.........
It was the first time for Cheng Yaojin and the others, including Cheng Yaojin, to enter Cheng Chuwen's small courtyard. After deciding how to ruthlessly slaughter those civil officials, they immediately shifted their attention to Cheng Chuwen's small courtyard.
They were very curious about Cheng Chuwen taking out so many good things from this courtyard. When they looked at the courtyard, they were like explorers.
As long as they saw something new, they would immediately pounce on it.
Suddenly, Li Jing saw a plow with a bent shaft and could not help but say to Cheng Chuwen,"Is this the plow you made? Why is the plow shaft bent?"
Seeing that Li Jing was pointing at Qu Yuanli in the corner, he did not take it to heart and said lightly,"This is a curved shaft plow. It's more energy-efficient than a long straight shaft plow. It can plow deeper and is easier to swing.”
Cheng Chuwen knew that this was the time when the long straight plow was popular in the Great Tang. The curved plow had not even appeared yet, but this curved plow had already been created.
However, because the grain had just been harvested and the farmers had not started farming, they did not take it out.
"It's more energy-saving and can plow deeper?”
Cheng Yaojin looked at his son and suddenly had the illusion that his son was omnipotent. There was nothing he could not do.
First, it was medicine, then it was military, and now it was agriculture. It seemed that he was incompetent in everything.
It wasn't just Cheng Yaojin. The others also had the same feeling.
It was precisely because of this that they were suspicious of Qu Yuanli.
Cheng Yaojin said," Kid, do you really think that you're omnipotent? After being a doctor, you became a general. Now you want to be a farmer?"”
Cheng Chuwen didn't know whether to laugh or cry." I said that the curved shaft plow is more useful than the long straight shaft plow. This is true, but this doesn't mean that I have to become a farmer.
Why can't I make this curved shaft plow and sell it to the farmers?”
"Is anyone buying it? Now, you are the only one who says that the curved shaft plow is better than the long straight shaft plow. Who will believe your words?”
"You'll know after a competition. It just so happens that we'll be plowing the land soon. You can have a competition between the long straight plow and the curved plow.”
"Is the curved shaft plow really better than the long straight shaft plow?”
Cheng Yaojin began to believe it because every time he saw Cheng Chuwen like this, the final result was that Cheng Chuwen won, without exception.
After thinking for a while, Cheng Yaojin said,"Let's compete, but there's no bet."”
"I didn't say I wanted to bet with you. I just wanted you to experiment with these two plows to see which one is better."”
White smoke came out of Cheng Yaojin's nostrils. He felt that he was despised by his son, and it was the kind that was ruthless.
