Protect Our Patriarch

　　……

　　 Wang Shouzhe only noticed that there was a 13-year-old girl not far away.

　　 She was at the age when the cardamom was first opened. She wore two small braids and had a face with melon seeds. She was beautiful and clean. She was blinking her **** and white eyes and looked at Wang Shouzhe with interest.

　　 "Are you Sister Ruo Lei?" Wang Shouzhe bowed his hand.

　　 He knows that the Liu family is relatively prosperous, and the contemporary patriarch Liu Gaowang has two sons and two daughters. His fiancee Liu Ruolan is the eldest daughter, and there is also a sister Liu Ruolei below her.

　　 But I didn’t expect that Liu Ruolei would also come over during this trip.

　　 Well, not long ago, I had a little brother-in-law's addiction in front of Chen Fangjie, which made Chen Fangjie feel the taste of walking on thin ice.

　　 Now his own future brother-in-law, and sister-in-law are all here, it's his turn to be trembling.

　　 "Ruo Lei met Brother Shouzhe." Liu Ruolei also hurriedly returned the courtesy, with good manners, but some of the demeanor of everyone in the future.

　　 Brother-in-law or something, now it can only be a joke. Wang Shouzhe and Liu Ruolan were not married in one day, so they could not change their names at will.

　　 When I saw the gift and greetings, the Liu family would drive off the wagon from the ferry, Jianma and so on.

　　 Wang Shouzhe welcomed them out of Dingpu Ferry.

　　 "Brother, let's take the carriage of Shouzhe's brother, just to listen to Shouzhe's introduction to the customs of Ping An Town." Liu Ruolei pulled Liu Yuanrui's sleeves and suggested.

　　 Obviously, Liu Ruolei is very interested in Wang Shouzhe, the future brother-in-law, and wants more contact.

　　Although Liu Yuanrui is less than sixteen years old, his complexion is still a little immature, but he is quite old in dealing with people. He shook his head and smiled bitterly and said to Wang Shouzhe: "Don't blame Shouzhe, our family Ruolei has been spoiled since childhood."

"It's okay, Sister Ruo Lei is lively and cute, Yuan Rui, if you don't dislike it, let's ride in my carriage with Sister Ruo Lei." Wang Shouzhe said with a smile, "It just happens that you and my brother have not seen you for some days. , Let’s talk about it together."

　　 "That would be great, and I can just ask Shouzhe brother for more advice and learning."

　　 After that, the three of them in a carriage, all the way back to the Wang family's main house. The generals of the Liu family and the Wang family are riding horses and guarding the surroundings.

　　 Along the way, the three of them ate melons and fruits and chatted casually in front of the scenery outside the carriage.

　　Yuanrui Liu is also quite talkative. From the insect disaster to disaster relief, and then to the possible long-term effects and other changes in the future. From this, it can also be seen that he is very solid in all aspects of homework.

　　 Although there are a few small ideas in it, Wang Shouzhe disagrees. But it does not prevent Wang Shouzhe from having a very good sense of this future brother-in-law. The Liu family has done a very good job in family education, which is not comparable to that of the Liu family and Zhao family.

　　In Liu Yuanrui's heart, he was even more surprised. He had dealt with Wang Shouzhe before. At that time, he was introverted and not good at talking. Only practice together can convince him.

　　 Because of this, Liu Yuanrui was still slightly dissatisfied with this marriage in his heart. I always feel that with Wang Shouzhe's ability and talents, even he can't match him, how can he be worthy of his sister Liu Ruolan?

　　 It's just this marriage, which was set down by the ancestors. As a junior, Liu Yuanrui has no right to speak even if he is not satisfied anymore.

　　 But I didn't want to. After only a year or two, this future brother-in-law has undergone earth-shaking changes. His speech and behavior are mature and steady, and his eyebrows are calm and composed, as if showing strong self-confidence.

　　 When talking about some topic of current situation, he is more quick-thinking and clear in logic, and he can often figure out the essence in a few words, reaching the point of truth. Even when he listened, he felt a kind of enlightenment, suddenly enlightened.

"Brother Shouzhe's knowledge makes Yuan Rui admire. It's just that Yuan Rui is a bit dissatisfied with the argument that food prices cannot be opened up." Liu Yuanrui talked openly, "From this insect plague, you can already see it. The shortcomings of this national policy. Businessmen are unprofitable, how can they desperately transport food from a distance to sell? In my opinion, half of this disaster looks like a natural disaster, but the Zifu Academy is actually responsible, and half is the mistake of the national policy. I I believe that in the near future, the national food price policy is very likely to change."

"It is possible to change the national policy on food prices, but even if it changes, it will only be fine-tuned." Wang Shouzhe shook his head and said, "Yuan Rui, you only see the advantages of liberalizing food prices. For example, in disaster years, you can quickly mobilize food to calm down. The disaster situation has ignored the greed of human nature. Once the rise and fall of food prices are fully released, predators will inevitably enter the market, monopolize food production, and control the rise and fall of food prices. At that time, you and me, small families, and Countless self-employed farmers, as well as thousands of other civilians, will be manipulated by those predators, and they will have no choice but to live or die."

"Natural disasters do not happen every year, but man-made disasters can happen every moment." Wang Shouzhe's expression was extremely solemn, "When you look at current politics and national policies, you can't just look at certain shortcomings. Moreover, even if it is a disaster year, let go of food. Price is also a great disaster. Greedy businessmen will be unscrupulous and scrape the last corner of the pockets of civilians, and even think of ways to force them to sell their fields, sell their children and sell their daughters."

"This..." Liu Yuanrui seemed to be unbelieving, but he didn't want to get entangled in this topic anymore, so he changed the subject, "Brother Shouzhe, that piece of water in front is Zhuwei Lake, right? It's the first time I came to Ping An Town, Shou Brother Zhe must take me to visit the lake."

　　 Liu Ruolei has not said much, but watching the conversation between her brother and Wang Shouzhe, she can feel that Shouzhe’s brother is more confident, calm, and calm. Most of what he said is right.

　　 It seems that Brother Morozhe is better than the rumored one.

　　 But for Zhuwei Lake, she is also quite interested: "I also want to go to Zhuwei Lake to play."

　　 I heard that their brothers and sisters all wanted to go to Zhuwei Lake, Wang Shouzhe remembered that the Liu family’s sentiment towards Zhuwei Lake is different from that of others.

　　 Wang Zhuwei, the second-generation first-in-law of the Wang family, was married to the Liu family and has two sons and one daughter. Nowadays, the lineages of her ancestors are all passed down from her old family.

　　The reason why she has a lofty status in the Liu family is more because the three living ancestors of the Liu family are all related to her. One is her son and the other is grandson.

　　 There is a daughter, which is even more powerful.

　　 That is Liu Xuanfu, one of Changning Shuangjiao who is as famous as the ancestor of Longyan.

　　 According to everyone's guess, Liu Xuanfu, who has developed very smoothly in the Zifu Academy, must already be in the late stage of Lingtai Realm by this time. The reason why the Liu family has developed so rapidly in recent years is also inseparable from Liu Xuanfu's care and support in the dark.

　　 Therefore, Grandma Zhuwei's grandmother is in the Liu family. It is a lifetime of prosperity and wealth. It is a pity that in the year Zhou Xuan ancestor died in battle, in the year of Changlong 3095, Wang Zhuwei's grandmother was in grief after hearing the news, and finally passed away with Zhou Xuan ancestor. She died at the age of 87.

　　 Leave the gossip alone.

　　 The carriage went forward again and saw the hot construction site beside Zhuwei Lake.

　　Yuanrui Liu is interested again: "Brother Shouzhe, with so many sheds, are you planning to build a courtyard on the lakeside?"

　　Wang Shouzhe smiled. Of course it is impossible to build a courtyard. Wang's economy has eased recently, but if he throws money into the courtyard for no reason, his forehead is pinched.

　　 "Our Wang family is going to dredge and fill the soil." Wang Shouzhe probably talked about the plan. Such a huge project cannot be concealed, and there is no need to conceal it.

After listening to it, Liu Yuanrui was stunned on the spot. He quickly calculated mentally, his expression was full of shock: "Brother Shouzhe, are you kidding? The total cost of such a huge project is probably no less than 30,000 yuan. , The manpower and material resources used are extremely huge, you, you, you..."

　　 It's no wonder that such a huge project is comparable to the feats of the ancestors when they opened up territories. Although some Xuanwu families would organize tenant farmers or farmers to do some work to expand the scope of the farm, such as dredging and filling the river, and leveling the land during the slack period of the farm.

　　 But after all, it was just a little trouble~www.readwn.com~ The scale is limited, and a farm can expand dozens of hundreds of acres a year, which is pretty good.

　　 "How can you laugh at such a big event?" Wang Shouzhe's expression was a little serious.

　　 Liu Yuanrui's body was shocked, and his expression became a little complicated. Although he was humble and decent, courteous and courteous. However, there is a great sense of superiority in his bones. Before he came, he came to Wang Shouzhe with the mentality of being picky about his brother-in-law with his brother-in-law.

　　The Liu family is very powerful, and Liu Yuanrui is also outstanding in his own talents, and has been praised by his ancestors many times. He always believed that his sister Liu Ruolan would marry Wang Shouzhe in the future.

　　 But not wanting, Wang Shouzhe accidentally crushed his pride. He is faintly ashamed of his vision of personal talent, behavior, and state of thinking.

　　 However, the strength of the Liu family's head is also his pride.

　　 But he didn't want to. Now that the Wang family has launched such a huge development plan, this kind of large project involving thousands of people and costing tens of thousands of dollars is even the Liu family dare not start easily.

　　 "Brother Shouzhe, he is only two or three years older than himself." Liu Yuanrui's heart was admired again, and a bit bitter. At this age, the "future brother-in-law" began to inherit the family business, holding real power, and starting a vast development project with a wave of hands, laying a century-old foundation for the family.

　　 Compared with Liu Yuanrui, he is not on the same level at all.

　　 Don't mention him Liu Yuanrui, it is his brother, Liu Yuanhui, the young patriarch of the current Liu family, I am afraid it is difficult to compare.

　　 "Brother Shouzhe is amazing." Liu Ruolei also beamed her eyes and said happily, "Sure enough, it's much better than my little brother who can only talk on paper."

　　 Liu Yuanrui's face turned black, although Brother Shouzhe is indeed extraordinary, but Ruolei, you don't have to bury your brother like this, right?
