Due to Zhao Yan's strong request, Brother Zheng could only show him the jar of sweet potatoes.
As expected, it was not cooked.
Zhao Yan was greatly disappointed.
"Forget it, forget it. I'll come back in a few days!”
A few days later.
The World Bookstore, which had already printed the books, was officially open for business!
As he was worried about Zhao Yan's safety, Brother Zheng decided not to let Zhao Yan personally go to the first day of the opening after listening to the report of the scene.
There were too many people!
"Your Majesty, I'm useless. The bookstore is packed with people…"
Dun Ruo wiped the sweat off his forehead.
"If Little Young Master goes over, I'm afraid it'll be difficult to take care of him. It's hard to guarantee that there will be any accidents.”
Zhao Yan had been arguing with Brother Zheng for the whole day because he wanted to go to the scene.
Dun Ruo couldn't run either.
This was the reason why he had come to Brother Zheng for help!
Brother Zheng was speechless for a moment before he said,
"I can't do anything about that kid…He messed with you, but he messed with me even more!”
"Forget it. Tell me first, how was the situation of the bookstore on the first day of opening yesterday?”
Dunruo took out a stack of papers from his pocket and presented it to him before saying,
"This is the profit and borrowing situation of the bookstore yesterday. Please take a look, Your Majesty.”
"I don't know why, but the news of the opening of the bookstore spread like wildfire in Xianyang City.”
"Originally, this subordinate thought that it would take at least a few days before this situation would occur. However, since the bookstore opened yesterday morning, there were so many people in the bookstore from afternoon to evening that it could not be squeezed!”
Brother Zheng didn't say anything. With just a glance, he knew that the opening of the bookstore could be said to be a great success!
At the same time, he also realized that he had stopped Zhao Yan from leaving the palace yesterday.
With such a small body, wouldn't he be trampled on in the bookstore?
The two of them were talking.
A small figure appeared at the palace gate.
It was Zhao Yan!
Brother Zheng and Dun Ruo were alarmed at the same time.
He really couldn't say anything behind his back!
Zhao Yan bounced into the room with a trembling figure behind him.
"Why is the old general here?"
Brother Zheng said in surprise.
The person behind Zhao Yan was Wang Jian, Old Man Wang!
Wang Jian walked in slowly and bowed to Brother Zheng before saying,
"Old minister, I came today to ask for your resignation.”
Brother Zheng glared at the innocent Zhao Yan.
The meaning of his gaze was obvious.
Did you do something to the old master again?
Zhao Yan quickly shook his head.
"Don't let your imagination run wild. I didn't bully the old master at all this time!”
Didn't mess around?
Then why did Wang Jian suddenly go on strike when he was teaching well?
Brother Zheng was puzzled.
Wang Jian let out a long sigh and said,
"Your Majesty, you've misunderstood!"
"He has been very obedient and studious recently.”
"This old minister resigned only because there was nothing else I could teach him…"
These words were even more shocking than Zhao Yan's evil deeds!
With Wang Jian's ability, he actually only taught for these few days and there was nothing else he could teach him?!
Brother Zheng was stunned.
He knew that Zhao Yan's military talent was very strong, but he did not expect him to be this strong. He was almost inhuman!!!
Until Wang Jian left, Brother Zheng still had not recovered from his shock.
"Hey, hey, hey!"
Zhao Yan was still as disrespectful as ever. He waved his hand vigorously in front of him.
"I'm back to my senses!"
Only then did Brother Zheng regain his rationality.
In the end, after the devilish brat called him back to his senses, he looked at him expectantly.
"My peppers are already ripe. If I count the days, the sweet potatoes should be about ready.”
"I'll treat you to a small hotpot today. Let's look at the sweet potatoes.”
Brother Zheng:
“……”
Can you stop thinking about eating!!!
Although that was the case, Brother Zheng was also a big foodie.
Hotpot…
Hiss, just thinking about it made her drool unconsciously.
Hence, Brother Zheng pretended to be reserved and nodded.
"En, zhen has not tasted hotpot for a long time. Since you sincerely invited me, I will eat with you again today.”
Zhao Yan was speechless.
You want to save face so badly. You clearly wanted to eat it a long time ago, but now you're still pretending!
However, he didn't expose Brother Zheng. He only instructed the two of them to eat hotpot together and specially requested for the chef he brought to cook hotpot.
An hour later.
The two gluttons, one big and one small, surrounded the table. Their heads were covered in sweat, and their faces were red from the spicy peppers. However, they still shouted "Shasha" while fighting for food from the pot.
Brother Zheng took some time out of his business of eating to tease,
"You don't have to say. Once you fight to eat something, it will be even more fragrant!”
Zhao Yan could not be bothered with him.
This old man was very evil. He must be trying to lure him into saying a few more words so that he could snatch more food!
After a storm.
The two of them lay on the armchair that Zhao Yan had taken out.
"Now that you're full, it's time to look at the sweet potatoes, right?”
Zhao Yan burped.
He hadn't forgotten what Brother Zheng had promised him before eating hotpot!
Brother Zheng also remembered. He imitated him and touched his stomach without any regard for his image.
"Alright, zhen will order someone to bring that jar over now!”
He had always kept the sweet potato jar in his study like a treasure. Not only did he take good care of it every day, but he also found a special farmer to check the growth of the sweet potatoes every day.
After giving the order, the jar was carefully carried over by two palace servants.
"How do I collect this thing?”
Brother Zheng looked at the jar and was at a loss.
He only knew how to plant according to Zhao Yan's method, but he had never heard of how to harvest the crops when they were ripe.
Zhao Yan chuckled.
"If you don't know how to collect it, why don't you just smash the jar?”
It was a simple, crude, and effective method.
Hence, he decided to do it.
Zhao Yan passed the stone to Brother Zheng, who took it and held it in his hand.
He was really a little nervous!
"Don't worry, nothing will happen. I promise you!”
Zhao Yan comforted him when he saw his nervous expression.
After all, Brother Zheng was Brother Zheng. In just a moment, his expression had already calmed down.
The stone in his hand was raised high and then suddenly fell down.
Bang!
A crisp sound rang out.
The earthen jar was smashed into pieces!
Brother Zheng quickly put down the stone in his hand. He didn't care about his dirty and his image. He squatted on the ground and began to dig up the dirt.
He remembered that when he was planting it, he only put a few small sweet potatoes in it…
He wondered if the sweet potato harvest was really as shocking as Zhao Yan had said!
"Pull pull, there's more inside!”
Although Zhao Yan didn't join him in the investigation, he was still giving instructions.
A moment later.
Brother Zheng looked at the pile of sweet potatoes in front of him and fell into shock and contemplation.
A few small sweet potatoes…
After harvesting, eight or nine huge fruits actually grew.
It weighed more than ten catties!
"Auspicious…This is definitely auspicious!!!”
