It was snowing heavily, and the world was covered with silver.

In the small bamboo village, Wang Chong and Wang Erxi sat and drank. There was a earthen stove on the eucalyptus, and there was a charcoal pot filled with most of the pot of water. On the pottery steamed, there were two white porcelain wine pots on the stove.

"Sanlang, come and have another bowl!" Wang Erxi held the wine glass and invited Wang Chong to drink again.

"Come on! Fuck!" Wang Chong raised his glass with both hands, and touched Wang Erxi, then raised his head and drank it all.

"Sanlang has a good amount of alcohol!"

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Wang Erxi laughed very heroically.

The two of them exchanged cups, picked radish and fried soybeans, and drank them to the point where they were excited. Looking through the window at the snowy scene covered with silver, Wang Chong couldn't help but recite a poem: "Green ant marinade and new wine, red mud stove, the sky is about to snow, and I can drink a cup without a drink!"

"What a good poem! I am worthy of being a scholar!" Wang Erxi immediately gave a thumbs up.

Wang Chongdao: "The poems written by Bai Juyi, a lay Buddhist in Xiangshan during the Tang Dynasty, are naturally good poems."

Wang Erxi was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter, picked up the wine glass and invited Wang Chong to touch it.

"I didn't expect that in just a few months, Saburo bought a farm and opened a restaurant, and he actually became a foreigner!"

Wang Chong said: "Listening blood from a knife is not a long-term solution. I always have to prepare some industries for my sister-in-law and Sister Qian!"

"Yes!" Wang Erxi sighed with emotion: "It's a pity that I am not as smart as Sanlang. I'm afraid I can only hang out in the world with this strength in my life."

Wang Chong said: "Listen to my sister-in-law, is Sister Yu happy again?"

Sister Yu is Wang Erxi's wife. Wang Erxi's father and Wang Chong's father were fellow villagers. They were placed together in Baishui Village. The relationship between the two families has always been good.

Wang Erxi nodded and said, "The doctor has seen it, and it has been more than two months!"

Wang Erxi is nearly thirty years old and has two sons and one daughter. Add this one, and there are four.

Wang Chong looked at Wang Erxi and asked, "Second brother has considered the future!"

"Future?" Wang Erxi looked at Wang Chong with some confusion.

"My uncle is over the age of destiny, and Dalang is also ten years old, right?"

"In two months, you will be ten years old!" Wang Erxi said.

Both of them are talking about one year old.

Wang Chong asked, "Second brother has thought about what to do when Dalang and Erlang grow up in the future? Should I follow my second brother to go to the Caogang to join the rivers and lakes, or stay in the village to farm?"

Wang Erxi replied without thinking, "Of course I am staying in the village to farm! Fighting in the martial arts world, licking blood from the knife, that is to tie your life to your belt to make money......"

But as he was talking, he suddenly realized, looked at Wang Chong who was looking at him, and asked, "Why did Sanlang suddenly talk about this?"

Wang Chong said: "Now I have settled my sister-in-law and Sister Qian. I will take the imperial examination this year. If everything goes well, I might have to go to Tokyo. In the past few years, if it weren't for my second brother Fuzhao, I would not be as good as Wang Chong. I am busy studying and preparing for the exam. I can't do many things myself. If my second brother is willing, how about coming to me to help me?"

Wang Chong suddenly bowed his hand and sent an invitation, saying very sincerely.

"This..." Wang Erxi was stunned by Wang Chong's sudden invitation, and did not react for a while, and he didn't know how to make a decision.

"Don't worry, second brother, it's not that he asked second brother to completely break up with Cao Gang. I guess there will be many things at home in the future and I have to trouble the brothers of Cao Gang to help me. But there is really no one around me who can trust and be effective. Second brother is unwilling to do so, so he pretends that my younger brother has not mentioned this and then give up!"

"Sanlang, it's not that I don't want to, it's just that this matter is too sudden. For a moment, I......" Wang Erxi really didn't know how to explain to Wang Chong.

Wang Chongming smiled and said, "Second brother doesn't need to remember to reply. When you go home in the evening, discuss with your uncle and sister-in-law."

"Thank you brother for your understanding!" Wang Erxi picked up the wine glass and fucked Wang Chong again.

After a meal, it was almost dark. Although Wang Erxi was a little drunk, she was obviously not drunk yet. Wang Chong still asked Yu Chuerer to send Wang Erxi home.

It has been half a year since I came to the copy world. This body is almost eighteen years old. Wang Chong was not idle either. He read the Four Books and Five Classics, all the meanings of the classics, and read the "History of Song" and "Song Law" several times. He also found out the articles of Jinshi circulating on the market. In addition, he has accumulated extensive knowledge for hundreds of years, and it is not very difficult for Wang Chong to take the imperial examination.

That night, Wang Erxi's family was holding his wife Yu, and he told Yu that Wang Chong's suggestion during the day was still in the middle of the month. The weather was cold, and the couple hugged in the quilt, tightly pressing against each other, which was warm.

Yu suddenly stood up and brought the quilt up. The cold air hit him, which made Wang Erxi tremble in cold weather: "What are you doing? I'll freeze to death!"

Wang Erxi hurriedly hugged Yu back, tucked the quilt, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.

"I think what Saburo said makes sense. Saburo is a scholar and smart. If his elder brother hadn't had that happen, he would have gone to the imperial examination long ago. Look at Saburo, but after following you for a few years, he saved up so much money, bought a farm, and opened a restaurant. If you were to change it, would you do it?"

"Uh..." Wang Erxi was a little overwhelmed by what his wife said, but then he thought that he had worked hard in the Cao Gang for so many years, and he was just a minion now. He saved some money, but compared with Wang Chong, it was still much worse.

"Sanlang is a scholar. If you are with Saburo for him, our son may be able to study with Saburo in the future! If Saburo really gains fame and becomes an official, our family can also follow Saburo's blessings!

If you do your job well, will you still worry about not having a future?"

Compared to her husband who was in the Cao Gang and who kept his head on his belt all day long to make money, Yu obviously prefers to let his husband follow Wang Chong. Even being a guard is better than licking blood from the knife.

The couple discussed for a long time.

The next morning, after reporting his father, Wang Erxi made a decision and directly found Wang Chong to express his feelings.

"Since that's the case, my second brother will do a stewardship by my side first! How about the monthly money?"

"Okay! OK!" Wang Erxi's face suddenly showed a smile.

One month is 12 jin per year. Although it is not as good as earning more in the Cao Gang, it is also quite a lot.

Wang Chong said: "There is an errand now, and I need my second brother to do it!"

"Sanlang just tells me!" Wang Erxi patted his chest and said.

Wang Chong said: "Have you been to the oil mill next to the village?"

Wang Erxi shook his head and said, "I haven't been there yet."

Wang Chong said: "It has been more than a month since the oil mill was built, but I have suffered from the lack of soybeans and rapeseed. My second brother has worked in the Cao Gang for many years. I wonder if there are any acquaintances in Runzhou, Jinling and other places?"

Wang Erxi said: "The Cao Gang branch is all in Jinling and Runzhou!"

"If I'm sorry to ask my second brother to make a move and entrust the Caogang to buy soybeans everywhere, I wonder if it can be done?"

"Of course!" Wang Erxi patted his chest and said, "It's not me, Wang Erxi, who boasted. I have been in the Cao Gang for many years. Although I have no great skills, I have also known many brothers who are loyal. It's just a good thing to buy some soybeans."

"Don't worry, my brothers don't ask me to work for nothing. Nowadays, a pound of soybeans in the grain shop is only three cents. No matter what price the brothers of the Caobang collect, I will buy them at a price of four cents per pound. However, it is not easy to store, and the oil mill is also limited. This is the first time we do business, so we can limit it to five hundred stones. How about it?"

"It should be no problem." Wang Erxi said that the New Year has just passed and the weather is cold. Even the brothers of the Cao Gang have to accompany their family members and friends to celebrate the New Year.

Wang Chong took out five ingots of silver from the inner room, put them in front of Wang Erxi, and said, "Ten taels per ingot, a total of fifty taels, and the remaining money will be settled together after the five hundred stones of soybeans arrive!"

Five silver ingots were placed in front of you. Even Wang Erxi, who had been traveling around for many years, could not help but be stunned by Wang Chong's handwriting.

It’s not that Wang Erxi has never seen so much money, but Wang Chong’s trust in himself. Now he hasn’t even seen the shadow of the Cao Gang yet. He took out the fifty taels of deposit without frowning.

The thinking of the ancients was different from the thinking of the big guys in reality. The ancients emphasized that scholars died for their confidants, especially Wang Erxi, who were in the world, who were even more righteous, and at the moment of life and death, they could be entrusted to their wives, children, and young people.

Wang Erxi was not an ignorant person. He immediately put five silver ingots into his arms one by one and solemnly bowed to Wang Chong: "Don't worry, I'll go to the city to find Brother Shi. Brother Shi is the deputy helm leader of the branch rudder. As long as Brother Shi agrees, this matter will be halfway."

"I'll bother my second brother like this!"

"What's the point, okay, I'll go!" Wang Erxi has never been the kind of dragging person who is so arrogant that he did it at will. He immediately said goodbye to Wang Chong and went straight to the deputy lord of the Cao Gang.

The task given by the system is to survive. Although Wang Chong had never lived in such a feudal and autocratic society, Wang Chong also understood that the Song Dynasty could barely be said to be peaceful and peaceful, and the people lived and worked in peace. Under such circumstances, it would be difficult to overthrow the rule of the Song Dynasty. It would be very difficult for Wang Chong to complete this life.

Since it is too difficult, you can only take shortcuts. Anyway, there is no punishment that will be erased if you fail a task. Since this is the case, it is better to take the imperial examination road and personally experience the life of ancient scholars from studying for imperial examinations to becoming officials.

Wang Chong was also very clear that it was hard to move without money. Whether in modern times or in ancient times, these words were all famous sayings. Since you need to be admitted to the imperial examination, don’t say anything about the top and bottom. The expenses on studying alone are not a small amount.

Pen, ink, paper, ink, classics, history, and literature, classics and meanings annotated by wise and great scholars, articles of Jinshi from all generations, expenses on the way to the exam, food, clothing, housing and transportation, etc., all costs.

Fortunately, Wang Chong has prepared a lot of yellow croaker, jewelry, white rice, and beef and mutton in his space.

The only regret is that I can’t bring fruits, vegetables, etc.

However, if you think about it carefully, Wang Chong can understand that the fruits and vegetables in later generations are excellent varieties selected after years of cultivation, and many of them are things that are not in the timeline of this copy world.

Wang Chong bought a farm, built an oil shop, a pigpen, and prepared to carry out large-scale breeding. These are all practiced by Wang Chong in many copy worlds, especially in the world of "Old Farmer", Wang Chong led the villagers of Maixiang Village as a farmer to unite many industries and form an agricultural product group with funds to complete the ecological chain.

These are all tested by practice.

After Wang Erxi left, Wang Chong came to the pigpen about a hundred steps outside the village. A man with dark skin and low-sized body but quite strong body saw Wang Chong coming, and hurriedly greeted him and greeted him.

"I've seen the young master!"

This man was Yu Chuyi, the eldest son of Lao Yu. He is now the manager of the pigpen. He has followed Wang Chong since the construction of the pigpen. Although he is not as smart as Yu Chuer, he is better because he is honest and diligent. Wang Chong taught him the skills of slaying pigs, and recorded all the things that need to be paid attention to in raising pigs one by one and handed over to Yu Chuyi.

"Is there an exception?"

"Nothing abnormal!"

"Well! Take a look first!" After the pigpen was built before the New Year, Lao Yu and his two sons collected them from all over the countryside. There were a total of 120 and more than a dozen sows. Wang Chong checked them one by one to confirm their health.

Except for the reserved breeding pigs, the other pigs need to be scattered!

The so-called slap pig is a pig that castrates piglets. The pork has less fishy smell than those that have not been slapdated.

The method of slaying pigs has been circulated, but it is not widely available. After all, people are not thinking at this moment, as they do in later generations. They are worried that they will teach their apprentices to starve their masters to death. Any skills they have are hidden and not fully taught. They have to wait until they are about to die before they can pass on them. Some of them are too hasty to die and they cannot even explain their funerals, so their skills are lost.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content later! After a walk around the pigpen, it is indeed as Yu Chuyi said. The growth of 120 piglets is quite good, and there are no cases of illness yet.

"Not bad! You must remember to keep it clean and clean. The pigpen must be cleaned every day. The water must be supplied in time. It must be ensured to be clean water... Before leaving, Wang Chong gave Yu Chuyi another reminder.

Whether it is raising pigs or chickens and ducks, the most feared thing is epidemics. Once it forms a scale, it will lose all your money. However, as long as you take good protection and maintain hygiene, it can still play a preventive role to a certain extent.

"Don't worry, young master, you do it according to your requirements." Yu Chuyi said.

"If these piglets grow up successfully, your reward will be indispensable!"
