Zhuang Zhou, unemployed at home, unexpectedly obtained a time-space gate that could travel to the Tang Dynasty's Zhenguan era, and could also carry items with him. Thus, Zhuang Zhou embarked on...
"Look, this is the improved plowshare."
A few minutes later, Zhuang Zhou had already drawn a picture of the curved plow.
Li Er saw this and thought for a moment and said:
"Brother, why is the shaft bent?"
The shopkeeper was also puzzled and looked thoughtful.
Zhuang Zhou clapped his hands and said:
"Because it's called a curved plow. From a mechanical point of view, this type of plowshare saves the most effort."
"Mechanics? What kind of subject is that?"
Li Er was puzzled.
Zhuang Zhou was too lazy to explain.
Said directly:
"Brother Qin, if you want to trust me, just make a plowshare like this and try it out, and you'll know."
Seeing Zhuang Zhou's confidence, Li Er also confirmed:
"Okay, shopkeeper, let's make a curved plow based on this one. How much do you think it will cost?"
"Don't worry, sir. If this curved plow can really save as much labor as you say, I won't charge you a penny."
Why would Li Er care about this little money?
What he cared about, of course, was whether it was really as Zhuang Zhou said.
This is a major matter concerning agricultural production and benefiting people all over the world.
Wait until next spring.
Then plant potatoes and sweet potatoes.
There are also many high-yield seeds.
Plant them all.
Accumulated over time.
Then promote it nationwide.
In a few years, the people of the Tang Dynasty will be able to have enough food to eat.
Li Er got excited when he thought of this.
Agree on a pickup time.
Coming out of the farm tool store.
Li Er raised his hand and glanced at his watch ostentatiously:
"Oh, it's almost noon. How about I treat you to dinner at the Xinghua Restaurant?"
Zhuang Zhou waved his hand and said:
"Don't spend the money. Why not come to my house? I'll cook a couple of dishes myself and we can have a few drinks."
Only then did Li Er remember that Zhuang Zhou already had a mansion.
and.
It was he who personally wrote the inscription for Zhuang Zhou despite the pressure from the court officials.
"Okay! I actually miss the dishes that you cook."
Mention this.
Li Er couldn't help but sigh:
"My dear brother, ever since I had the meal you cooked in your shop, I have to make do with other dishes."
Zhuang Zhou smiled faintly and said nothing more.
Afterwards, the two of them went directly to Taibai Restaurant.
Because Zhuang Zhou's motorcycle is still parked here.
I will ride back home directly from the East Market later.
At the entrance of the restaurant.
When Zhuang Zhou saw Zhao Facai, he walked up to him and greeted him.
Finally said:
"Old Zhao, I'm going back to the house for dinner. Please keep an eye on the restaurant."
Zhao Facai responded and said:
"Boss, do you want me to ask the kitchen to make you something to eat?"
"No need, I have friends here, you go ahead and do your thing."
"Okay! Take care, boss."
Zhuang Zhou said no more, looked at Li Er and said:
"Brother Qin, I see you don't have a horse, how about taking my iron donkey?"
And at this time Li Er.
He was staring intently at the door couplets on both sides of the restaurant.
I didn't hear what Zhuang Zhou said at all.
The whole person has fallen into intoxication.
"I was born with talent that will be useful, even if I lose all my money, I will get it back!"
"Wonderful!"
"Wonderful!"
Li Er praised repeatedly.
These two lines of poetry are really well written.
Everyone has their own unique talents and gifts.
These talents will always come into play at the right time.
Just fourteen words.
It fully reveals the value of life.
How wild this is!
This is what Li Er wholeheartedly advocates.
It is now the Zhenguan period, and everything needs to be rebuilt.
The court needed a large number of talents, and Li Er was also eager to recruit them.
And these fourteen words are exactly what he wants to say in his heart.
"Brother Zhuang, is this the poem you wrote?"
Li Er finally couldn't help but asked.
Zhuang Zhou smiled awkwardly and said:
"No, this is..."
The conversation ended here.
He originally wanted to talk about Li Bai, but if he said that, he would inevitably be questioned further.
So he turned and said:
"This was done by a teacher in my hometown, and I just quoted it."
It is not a loss at all to recognize Li Bai as your teacher!
If Li Bai knew that there was a shameless student like Zhuang Zhou, he would probably be furious.
"Brother, I didn't expect there was such a talented person in your hometown. What's your official position?"
Zhuang Zhou was a little embarrassed:
"My teacher is not an official. He likes to study and teach people on weekdays."
"It's a pity to have such a talented person."
Li Er sighed lightly and said:
"I really want to recommend him to join the government and serve the Tang Dynasty."
Zhuang Zhou smiled and said:
"Brother Qin, my teacher actually has a calm personality and doesn't really like official disputes.
Moreover, our Tang Dynasty is now full of talented people, so there is no need to worry about not having talented people available."
Li Er nodded and said:
"You're right. Take you for example, you're a man of ten talents, but it's a pity you don't want to become an official!"
Why are you mentioning this again?
Zhuang Zhou really doesn't want to be an official!
The key is that he can’t do it!
"Brother Qin, my immortal master often taught me to follow nature and practice the principle of governing by inaction.
So everyone has their own choices, and this is what my immortal master said: "Tao follows nature."
Li Er nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
The fact that he could come up with a way to improve the curved plow made him fully believe in Zhuang Zhou's talent.
Such a talented person, we really need to find a way to keep him here!
"Brother Qin!"
Zhuang Zhou shouted again.
