Chapter 225 Chen Gui is well established and needs to be fooled again
When he learned that Lu Bu asked him to study farm tools and make salt, Chen Gui stayed where he was, looking at the former in confusion.
Lu Bu, are you serious?
I am a great scholar and scholar of my generation, so why would I want to do such vulgar things?
Seeing Chen Gui in this state, Lu Bu smiled disdainfully, knowing what he was thinking.
Farmers and salt people were inferior people in the eyes of the gentry.
Normally, Chen Gui would look at them and feel like his eyes were dirty. How could he possibly study their affairs.
Lu Bu increased his firepower and continued to deceive: "Mr. Chen Gui, just think about it.
If you improve farm tools, you will have a good harvest and the country will be strong and prosperous. This is a major event that benefits the country and the people!
There is also salt production. At this time, ordinary people cannot eat a little salt for a year. It has been scientifically proven that an appropriate amount of salt has great benefits for the human body.
If you can make improvements, it will be a great thing that will benefit the country and the people.
How can you underestimate these things? "
hiss!
After hearing Lu Bu's affectionate words, Chen Deng took a long breath.
General Lu Bu occupies a high position, but he thinks about the smallest things of the people. He is so benevolent and righteous.
Chen Deng was very excited. Thanks to him for joining Lu Bu's army so early, otherwise he would have regretted it for the rest of his life.
Chen Gui was speechless: "I, I..."
He is also a smart man. Of course he knows that Lu Bu is telling the truth, but he can't let go.
After all, to study salt production and agricultural tools, you have to deal with the people at the bottom.
Seeing that his father wanted to refuse, Chen Deng shook the former's arm anxiously and said loudly: "Father, how do you usually teach your children, have you forgotten now?"
Chen Gui scratched his head: "Huh?"
Lu Bu looked respectful and bowed to the ground: "Although these are seemingly trivial matters, they cannot be completed unless a knowledgeable person. I hope that the old gentleman will spare no effort."
"Promise, father." Chen Deng's eyes were red with anxiety.
Chen Gui looked around, his expression hesitant, and he hesitated for a while before hesitating: "Then, let me try it!"
Lu Bu snickered in his heart and was unreasonable. He took a step forward and said affectionately: "This is a difficult matter. You must have confidence to complete it."
Chen Deng raised his arms: "Father, I support you."
Taking a deep breath, Chen Gui nodded firmly: "Okay, I'm confident."
Seeing that Chen Gui finally agreed, Lu Bu suppressed a chuckle and sighed with a serious face: "Mr. Chen Gui came out of the mountain. It is really a great blessing for the world and a blessing for the people."
"thank you.
Thank you General for giving me this opportunity. "Chen Gui grabbed Lu Bu's hand and shook it vigorously.
The three discussed many details again, and Lu Bu mentioned his Xuanwu Hall and the Academy of Literature in Yongzhou, which again made Chen Gui and his son admire them.
"General Lu, you really care about the people. You care about people's livelihood with one hand and education with the other. Good people like you are rare."
"Haha, it's all for the people!
I announce that the Xuzhou branch of Xuanwu Hall will be established here, and Mr. Chen Gui will be in charge of the work. The main direction will be salt production and agricultural tools, and the government will bear all the expenses. "
"Good good."
Chen Gui was very happy. After he quit being an official, he had nothing to do at home, and now he has a career again.
A few days after Lu Bu returned to his house, Er Pang came to report again.
"My lord, Chen Gui still can't let go of his figure. When communicating with the salt people and farmers, he always watches from a distance.
Moreover, he also has reading parties when he has nothing to do, and often comments on some current political issues. "
Hearing this, Lu Bu shook his head. Chen Gui was not in a good state. He couldn't be allowed to have free time chatting with others, as he could easily get into trouble.
Moreover, although Lu Bu does not know how to study things, he knows that if he wants to really produce results, he must devote himself physically and mentally to it.
Only by using current farm tools yourself can you truly discover their shortcomings.
After scratching his chin, a good idea came to Lu Bu's mind, and he quickly called Chen Deng and Chen Gui to work in the fields together.
Standing in front of a farmland, Lu Bu took a long breath of the earth's breath, which made him feel very comfortable.
Chen Deng looked at Lu Bu in surprise: "General, why are you dressed like this?"
It turned out that Lu Bu was specially wearing peasant shorts and a short shirt, with straw sandals on the soles of his feet.
"Haha, I was very moved recently when I heard that Mr. Chen Gui is practicing research on farm tools. I hate talkers the most in my life, so I am here to study today."
"what?"
Chen Gui, who was wearing a gorgeous robe, was a little happy when he heard Lu Bu's praise.
But looking at his outfit, I had a bad feeling.
At this time, many farmers gathered over curiously and looked at Lu Bu and the others in surprise.
After learning that Lu Bu was the governor of Xuzhou, they were shocked and couldn't help talking.
"What would a high-ranking official like the governor do in the farmland?"
"Yes, look at the clothes Lu Bu is wearing, it looks like he wants to work."
"I have to say, General Lu looks so good no matter what he wears."
Ignoring everyone's comments, Lu Bu, under the guidance of farmer Lao Li Tou, took a big step and started to help plow the land.
Seeing this scene, the onlookers were even more surprised and the discussion became even louder.
"Old man, I have lived for eighty years, and this is the first time I have seen the governor plowing the fields."
"What, what does this mean? Why did Lord Lu Bu come to plow the fields?"
Not only the peasants were shocked, but Ye Yun, Chen Deng, Chen Gui and others were also frightened. They didn't care about their gorgeous clothes and hurriedly ran to Lu Bu and grabbed the latter's clothes tightly.
"General, what are you doing?"
"You usually have so many things to do at work, how can you still do something like this?"
"Old Li Tou, you deserve the death penalty, and you actually let me plow your land."
Hearing everyone's words, Lao Li's face was clouded. He glanced at Lu Bu in a panic, and knelt down as his legs went weak.
"Damn the small ones, damn the small ones."
Pushing Chen Deng away hard, Lu Bu said with a solemn expression.
"Don't say anything, it's none of Lao Li's business.
Chen Gui, I asked you to be responsible for researching new farm tools. What progress have you made? "
Chen Gui blinked guiltily, looked at his son, and said weakly: "I, I feel that the farm tools are still usable, there is no need to develop them."
With a cold snort, Lu Bu patted the dirt on his hands and said, "Humph, I knew you would make this mistake.
That’s why I called everyone here today to remind you with personal experience. "
"Remind me of what?"
“Remind you that when doing R&D work, you cannot be a bystander, but you must participate.
If you don't get involved personally, you won't be able to discover the problems at all. "
"Oh?"
Chen Gui slightly nodded thoughtfully.
Lu Bu continued: "After working for a while, I found that this plow is not easy to use. It requires two strong men or two oxen to pull it. The efficiency is too low."
Hearing this, Chen Gui's eyes lit up, he looked at Lu Bu with sudden realization, and said in surprise.
"Yes, yes, the general is right?
The efficiency is indeed very low, but what can we do to change it? "
