People have an instinctive desire to possess beautiful things. When Xiao Yuehua saw the golden beads as big as pigeon eggs, her eyes suddenly lit up.
Daddy said that gifts of filial piety are acceptable, as they are little tokens of appreciation from the younger generations, and it would be bad to refuse them, so Xiao Yuehua happily took the golden beads.
When Xiao Yuehua heard the footsteps outside, she knew that Wang Zheng had returned. After all, the sound of a wooden stick hitting a stone slab was easy to distinguish.
So Xiao Yuehua ran out quickly with the golden beads to present the treasure to Wang Zheng.
Looking at the rare golden bead in Xiao Yuehua's hand, Wang Zheng frowned slightly, but did not mind too much. He squatted down and picked up Xiao Yuehua. Just as he was about to ask the reason, Wang Zhen came out with Fang Zhao and Zhang Gou.
"The town has seen you, sir. I hope you are doing well."
There was a slight tremor in Wang Zhen's tone. This was the man who picked him up from the mud. The more knowledgeable and experienced he was, the more he could understand the favor he had received. If it weren't for the teacher, Wang Zhen would be lucky to live a smooth life in this life.
Wang Zhen was a little surprised when he saw this and said with a sigh, "Little Junior Sister is much more diligent, isn't she?"

Wang Zheng took the stick, let Wu Yi out, and introduced him to the two brothers, "This is your master uncle. Come and meet him. If you have any questions about local governance in the future, you can ask your master uncle for advice."
Wang Zheng smiled and said, “That’s great, let’s sit down and eat together.
"Get up."
“After returning to Lingnan from the northeast earlier this year, I went on a long voyage. I did not sail along the coast, but instead formed a fleet and set out from Qiongzhou. I sailed south for half a month and discovered many small islands after a month of exploration.
Everyone, please be more casual. We don’t toast when we eat here. You can drink sake or red wine at will. Just try not to get drunk.”
"The third brother has become a successful person. You have done very well in Lingnan."
Fang Zhao and Zhang Gou looked at the bamboo stick in Wu Yi's hand, nodded vigorously, and bowed, saying, "Disciple understands."
The pressure of supporting the whole world is not easy to bear. Li Zhi often said that there was nothing to worry about in the court, and it was just the Yuzhou faction that helped to share the burden.
Wu Yi leaned over and helped the two brothers up, smiling and said, "The third brother is very knowledgeable and has high standards. The fact that you two have been accepted as his disciples proves that you two have good aptitudes, but aptitude does not represent achievement. My Yuzhou lineage has been handed down for three generations, with you two as the leaders. You must work hard in the future."
Wang Zheng handed the stick to Wu Yi, put Xiao Yuehua down, leaned over to help the two brothers up, and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, don't knock hard, just show your appreciation. If you break the stone slab, you'll have to spend money, which is not good."
Xiao Yuehua and Wang Ping'an, brother and sister, worked together to carry a long bamboo table into the yard, and then moved out many bamboo chairs. After Wang Zheng sat down, the two little guys, under the leadership of Luo Xiaomei, prepared many dried fruit snacks.
I haven't seen him for several years. He has obviously aged a little. Although his appearance has not changed much, I can still see the vicissitudes of life in his eyes.
They could eat as many snacks as they wanted at times like this, so Xiao Yuehua and Wang Pingan worked very hard. When they were having dinner just now, Xiao Yuehua didn't eat much, and she left some food in her stomach for snacks.
"Master, how are you? I kowtow to you."
Wang Zhen explained to the two disciples: "Your master pays attention to soothing the throat, stimulating the appetite and boosting mood when it comes to wine. Just drink according to your own alcohol tolerance. You can eat and drink casually and don't be too restrained."
These small islands are as big as a county, and as small as a few feet in radius. The fishery resources there are very rich, and there are coconut trees everywhere, especially giant kun, which is a rare treasure. It takes me two months to go back and forth, and I have a good harvest. "
After the meal, Chen Fengning and Wu Yi left to do their own business. Wang Zhen asked Zhang Gou and Fang Zhao to transport the things brought from Lingnan to the Grand Steward's Mansion.
"Thank you for your hard work, sir."
"It's hard work, you'll get used to it. How's your exploration of the South China Sea going?"
The two brothers quickly knelt down in front of Wang Zheng and kowtowed three times, "Greetings to Grandmaster, Grandmaster Changqing."
"Fang Zhao, Zhang Gou, come quickly and kowtow to your master."
"hey-hey."
So now not only does he run very fast to put things away, he also helps to make and pour tea.
Faced with Wang Zheng's teasing, the two brothers could only respond with a silly smile.
Luo Xiaomei was setting the table, and Wang Zhen, with two disciples, came to greet her again.
Feeling that there was not enough food, just as Luo Xiaomei was about to go back to the kitchen, Chen Fengning walked in carrying a large food box.
Looking at the young man in front of him who was half a head taller than him, Wang Zheng smiled. Is there anything better in the world than seeing the hope he had sown take root and sprout? This is his inheritance, the inheritance of his spirit.
Wang Zheng took his daughter in his arms and said with a smile, "Let's do it. Since you are back today, I can also take a break from my busy life. Let's have a good chat."
Wang Zhen also smiled. All his efforts were rewarded with this moment of affirmation.
This young man with a vicissitudes of life is their master, the person who changed the whole world and the source of the change in their destiny.
Wang Zheng patted Wang Ping'an on the back of his head, took Xiao Yuehua's hand, and said to everyone, "Okay, let's not talk about that, let's go in and eat first."
"The third brother came back at the right time. I knew you didn't have enough food, so I brought some over from the cafeteria."
Although Wang Zheng does not have to work physically, he has to work hard with his mind. For the world to prosper and the four border areas to be developed, Wang Zheng needs to be guided in specific directions. He must be cautious in encountering all problems, as a wrong decision will endanger thousands of people.
Wang Zheng nodded and said with a smile: "As long as there are abundant resources, your responsibility is to explore the waterway. As for the specific business operations, leave it to those aristocratic families. As long as there is profit to be made, they will flock to it and spontaneously open up the sea for you.
As long as you monitor the taxes, it doesn't matter how much profit they make. No matter how thick their fur is, it only provides nutrients to the internal organs.
No matter what business it is, there will be a little high profit only in the beginning. As long as the rules are set, they can only earn a little hard-earned money in the end, and the ones who profit are always the ones in power.
Therefore, you must create a fair environment to allow them to compete with each other and promote each other. This is the long-term solution.
Anyone who wants to monopolize an industry must be resolutely cracked down. If you really can't find a reason, you can support some of his competitors, or simply enter the industry yourself, but you can't let monopoly happen. "
