Wang Zheng pondered for a moment and said, "It is human nature to pursue wealth. As long as the laws are strict enough that no one can obtain wealth through plunder, the people can only obtain wealth through creation. I think that should be enough.

After all, human potential is infinite. No matter what the environment is, we can always find a way to survive and try to make our lives better. And doesn’t Your Majesty have a gym? There are even more infinite possibilities there.”

"The dojo." Li Zhi smiled and smacked his lips twice, then asked, "Your second son went to the dojo and picked up a lot of good things. I wonder how he's doing with the Western Region now?"

Wang Zheng looked at Li Zhi and asked, "Your Majesty, do you want to visit the Western Regions?"

"Hehe, I did think about it, but I thought the steward would not agree, so I gave up the idea. After all, it would take half a year to go back and forth, and the distance is really too far."

Land transportation is different from water transportation. Even if you take a horse-drawn carriage, you can't travel long distances too fast. After all, the carriages of this era were not equipped with spring shock absorbers. You can imagine how bumpy it would be. Traveling two hundred miles a day would make people exhausted.

Boats are much more stable and people can withstand the journey of thousands of miles in a day.

Li Zhi looked at the fish in his hand which was also dripping with oil, smiled, exchanged it with Wang Zheng, and said, "The fish I roasted can be eaten by the steward. I am not stingy."

Wang Zheng pulled the corner of his mouth, "You just learned how to grill, can't you get a smaller one? How can you turn such a big fish?"

Wang Zheng looked at the fish in his hand and found that it was almost done. He brushed a little honey on it to make it more fresh, and quickly handed it to Xiao Yuehua, saying, "Let Daddy roast the one in your hand for a while, and take Li Dan to eat this fish before you come over to roast it."

Wang Zheng stuck all three dripping fish next to the fire, letting the heat from the fire slowly roast them, then took out two more fish and roasted them. After they were roasted, he exchanged two more dripping fish from Li Xian and Li Xian.

After Wang Zheng nodded in confirmation, Xiao Yuehua happily took Li Dan to eat fish.

Just apply the oil. Why is it that the oil you apply is like rain?

Xiao Yuehua was a cautious person. She picked out the biggest fat head and put it on the chopping board with a grin.

Li Zhi curled his lips, took the grilled fish and started eating. While eating, he asked Wang Zhen, "Old Three, you will see Old Four tomorrow. Are you sure about the task assigned by your master?"

Wang Zheng pointed to the five fish stuck next to the fire and said, "The two with the least oil are yours. They are ready. Eat them directly."

"Father."

"I knew the steward would say that."

As long as you can grill the fish without burning it, you will have learned it. Don't set too high a bar for the first time. As for the taste, you can try adding some seasonings that suit you after the fish is grilled."

Xiao Yuehua hesitated for a moment and said, "But Daddy, you can't steal my fish."

Li Zhi took the fish handed to him by Wang Zheng, laughed and ran away immediately.

"Haha, you're welcome."

"Daddy."

Wang Zheng looked at the two little guys' expectant expressions, nodded, and said to Li Zhi, "Then let's have grilled fish for dinner."

Wang Zheng curled his lips and said, "Then I would like to thank Your Majesty for the reward."

After a while, Xiao Yuehua finished eating the fish and ran back with Li Dan, "Daddy, where is our fish?"

Li Dan also nodded vigorously and said, "Well, the fish I grilled is also delicious. I am also a genius."

Li Dan nodded and said, "Little boy, grill the fish."

Xiao Yuehua sighed and said, "Okay, let's grill a small fish."

The two little guys each took a fish and immediately took a bite. After swallowing the fish in their mouths, Xiao Yuehua said to Li Dan proudly, "See, I said grilling fish is very simple. I didn't expect that Wang Yuehua could grill fish so deliciously for the first time. I am really a genius."

“There aren’t many techniques for grilling fish. The most important thing is patience. We can use oil to control the heat. Just apply a little more oil and grill a little further away from the fire, and at least it won’t get burnt.

People are driven by desires. Xiao Yuehua became well-behaved immediately when she wanted Wang Zheng to grill fish. When Wang Zheng put on sleeves and apron, the little guy helped him tie the ropes. When Wang Zheng was marinating fish, the little guy helped sprinkle seasoning on the side. When Wang Zheng was grilling fish, the little guy helped pass the bottles and jars.

Li Xian and Li Xian were not as indestructible as their father. They blushed and pondered for a while before exchanging the fish in their hands with Wang Zheng. The fish grilled by Wang Pingan and Wang Zhen were quite good.

Li Zhi's words made Wang Zheng's face darken. Just come out for a walk, what if you want to walk around more? "Your Majesty, you can think about going to the Western Regions when you have free time. It is really not appropriate to leave Chang'an for too long at one time."

The others smiled and each took a branch to thread a fish through it, waiting to learn how to grill fish from Wang Zheng.

"Daddy, can I grill a fish myself?"

Wang Zheng took the greasy fish from the two little guys, sighed, and handed the remaining fish he had grilled to Li Zhi, "Your Majesty, please try it and see if it suits your taste."

It must be because you are thick-skinned enough! Wang Zheng was too lazy to pay attention to him.

Wang Zhen smiled bitterly, looked at his master who looked calm and composed, and said, "I will do my best. There is no way to be sure about such things."

"sure."

"It is of course possible for the chief steward to do it himself."

Li Zhi came over and took his own fish. After tasting it, he smiled and said, "Well, my cooking skills are pretty good. It should be because grilling fish is relatively simple."

Li Zhi smacked his lips and said, "I feel that you, the Yuzhou clan, have gone a bit too far in this regard. When it comes to marriage, it is better to respect the wishes of parents and matchmakers.

For example, if it were the case with those Confucian guys, all problems would be solved as soon as I opened my mouth. As for happiness, life would slowly pass by, and we would know it in the end. Do you agree with me, Grand Steward?"

Wang Zheng sighed and said, "This matter has nothing to do with happiness. I just hope to give them as much freedom as possible so that they can recognize their true feelings and make the right choice."

"hehe."

Li Zhi scoffed at this, "I think the chief steward is shirking his responsibility. You said you would give them freedom, but at the same time you ordered the third son to pursue the fourth son. What does this mean?"
