After asking for all the information about Chen Fengning, Wang Zheng hesitated for a moment and said, "I am currently renovating a new area and need help. Since you can write and do math, you can stay here and help.

As for other things, we can put them aside for now, what do you think?"

Chen Fengning bowed to Wang Zhengchang and said, "Thank you very much for saving my life, Steward. I will definitely serve you as a servant."

"Then follow me."

Wang Zheng took Li Si and pulled four carts towards the reclaimed land, and Chen Fengning hurried to catch up.

Sitting in the carriage, Li Si whispered, "Master, that guy is not a good person. Is it really okay to let him follow us like this?"

"He is indeed not a good person. We are now more or less a big tree that attracts wind. It is inevitable that there will be people spying on us. No matter who sent him, he must have some skills.

Now Wang Zheng was in a difficult situation. Those people at the market didn't care whether Luo Xiaomei had spread the rumor privately or not. They asked the little boy to come and help because they wanted him to have something delicious to eat.

The newly dug dirt road was very flat, and it didn't take long for the carriage to reach the reclaimed area. Many children were busy moving pebbles on the ground.

Luo Xiaomei suddenly became anxious, "Why should we pay them? I asked them to help pick tung nuts and cooked meat to treat them."

"You are bullying me." Luo Xiaomei ran away crying.

If this drags on for three or five times, after a few years, the winner in Chang'an will have been decided. No matter who wins or loses, Wang Zheng will either be waiting to be rewarded or to be won over by others. In any case, he will not suffer any loss.

Can't I use it to make a profit? Don't always be clever. Many times, others just don't want to bother with you."

"Let's not talk about this for now. Take some people to collect some firewood and we'll start making food."

It could be someone sent by Wu Zetian, or even a double agent. Who can tell who is true and who is false?

"Yang Dan'er, I've told you so many times not to throw stones, but to move them over there. What if the stone you threw bounces and hits someone? Who will pay for it, you or me?"

You need an adaptation period to be an undercover agent. After you have been working for a while, I will reveal the secret of the yellow paper myself. What's the point of you trying to find out?

Gou Wa was delighted, but he waved his hands repeatedly: "As long as I have food to eat, I don't need clothes. My parents left me two sets of old clothes. I can still wear them after mending them."

"If I hadn't seen you cooking meat to entertain them, I would have passed on the method of making kudzu powder. A person should be content and give back to others.

When I have the second thing ready and it has been running for a while, you will receive an order to find out new secrets, and then it will be almost time for me to announce the secrets.

"I know. You should stay here and work from now on. There are many things to do here. It should be no problem to get some food and clothes."

The whole place was bustling with activity, and Luo Xiaomei was busy chattering away, having a great time.

What Wang Zheng needs now is to constantly demonstrate his own value, such as making yellow paper, reclaiming land that others don’t want, and earning money that others cannot earn.

If you dare to break your promise, people will definitely hold it against you and bear a grudge against you. Although Wang Zheng felt a little unhappy, he didn't lack that little bit of money. Compared with that, having a good reputation in the local area was much more important.

"My sister is here, she can also help pick up some rocks, she won't eat for free."

"Gou Wa, don't move such a big rock. Find someone to help you lift it. Either roll it over or push it over. Don't force it if you can't move it. Do you want to hurt yourself so you can ask for money?"

The little girl named Yangdan shouted, "We don't have to pay the money, let the owner pay the money. My parents said that the owner has a lot of money here."

Wang Zheng looked at her with a half-smile and said, "Those Han children have helped you pick tung nuts for five days. If you don't give them twenty coins each, I will pass on the method of boiling tung oil."

Let him work for us first. He only needs to keep the secret of Jiangxin Island for the time being. There is nothing else that needs to be kept secret. Let him look at it as he pleases."

Gou Wa hurriedly went to find someone to collect firewood. At this time, Luo Xiaomei came over and looked at Wang Zheng with a smile on her face, "Brother, look, I found so many people to come and pick up stones for you, are you happy?"

The key point is that the money Wang Zheng earns is not his own, but he makes money for others. This is very rare. Who wouldn't want to win over such a person?

As long as he can demonstrate his value, the bosses will always spare Wang Zheng's life no matter who wins or loses, and will also find ways to win him over. There are many people who can fight, but not many who can make a lot of money in an honest way.

The little boy named Gou Wa was a little ashamed by what Luo Xiaomei said. He looked up and saw Wang Zheng again. He blushed and stammered, "Master, I don't want to blackmail you. I just want to do more work."

For Wang Zheng, the more people like Chen Fengning, the better. No matter who sent you, I will use you directly. I just need to put the secrets that need to be kept on Jiangxin Island so that they can't get access to them.

Patting Gou Wa's head, Wang Zheng comforted him softly, "The master knows. Did you bring your sister? Dinner will be served soon."

Wang Zheng had originally agreed not to care and to use the method of boiling tung oil to exchange for the Ba children to clean the stones. But that damn girl Luo Xiaomei spread the rumor that if they came here to move stones for fun, they would get delicious food, so she coaxed the Han children over as well.

The child is already in his teens, but he is very thin, almost like a seven or eight-year-old baby. He has a five-year-old sister at home. His parents have been dead for two years, and he relies on him to find food to fill the stomachs of his brother and sister.

If everyone is like you, who takes advantage of everything and wants to take advantage of everything, do you think I would teach you these two methods?

There were some things Wang Zheng didn't want to tell Li Si. Wang Zheng didn't want to inquire too much about Chen Fengning's background, so who cares who sent him?

Wang Zheng smiled bitterly and shook his head.

Chen Fengning was filled with emotion as he watched from the side. Although Wang Zheng had extraordinary means, he seemed a little inhumane. He was afraid that his life would be difficult in the future.

Li Si didn't care about all this. Whatever the master did was right, so he just had to do his job. At this time, Li Si had already unloaded the things and was moving big stones to build the stove. Seeing Chen Fengning next to Wang Zheng, he couldn't help but shout.

"What are you standing there for? Go take the iron pot to the creek and wash it clean. We'll be cooking soon. Don't you want to eat?"

Chen Fengning looked at Wang Zheng first, and happened to see Wang Zheng squinting at him. Chen Fengning was startled and quickly took the iron pot and left.
