A small peasant girl who traveled through time and space picked up a war god prince
Chapter 293 Spring Planting Begins 1
Siyu slowly closed her eyes as she walked, drifting off to sleep. She was truly exhausted from the day. As Long Linxiao walked, he listened to the even breathing of the person behind him, who soon began to snore. He couldn't help but laugh, shaking his head. "This girl isn't lazy at all. She insists on doing everything herself. I'm not going to let her down if I'm not around to watch over her."
When the cockcrowed, the sky was already bright. Siyu stretched lazily, "Oh, comfortable." She put on her clothes and walked out of the room. As soon as she walked out, she met a pair of smiling eyes.
Long Linxiao, "Sister Yu'er, get up. Good morning! Did you have a good rest?"
Siyu also replied with a smile, "Brother Xiao, good morning!"
The two of them walked into the restaurant, talking and laughing.
Lan Niang: "Yu'er, get up, come and make some food! Xiao'er, come and make some too. Are you all hungry? Come, come and have dinner."
Long Linxiao: "Okay, good morning, aunt."
Lan Niang: "Good morning! Have breakfast! You'll be busy later."
Halfway through the meal, Dazhuzi came running in to report, breathlessly, "Miss, Miss, the village head has brought the people selected to go to other counties to wait at the door. Also, Prefect Fang has also brought the county magistrates from various counties to pick up the people."
Siyu: "They're up pretty early and quite enthusiastic. They're about to put down their bowls and chopsticks and get ready to get up. Okay, I'll be right there."
Long Linxiao grabbed Siyu who was about to leave and said, "Sit down and eat. Let them wait for a while."
Seeing this, Dazhuzi looked at Siyu and then at Lanniang. Long Linxiao waved his hand and said, "Go tell them that the princess is having dinner. Take them to the side room for tea and wait a moment."
Dazhuzi: "It's my cousin."
Dazhuzi turned and left in a hurry.
The village head was trembling with fear at this moment. He stood timidly beside the prefect Fang and saluted respectfully, "I am the village head of Baijia Village. Bai Zhou greets the prefect."
Prefect Fang: "Reach out and support the village head, old man, please stand up quickly." Prefect Fang is the princess's great uncle, and the princess is always respectful to him, so how could he dare to put on airs, especially since this is right in front of the princess's home.
Prefect Fang: "Father, how much land are you planting this year?"
The village head said: "Not much, not much, just about twenty mu of irrigated land and twenty mu of dry land."
When Prefect Fang heard this, he was also surprised and kept saying, "That's quite a lot, quite a lot." He thought to himself, "This top-quality water land costs over ten taels of silver per mu. Average land costs over ten taels. Low-quality land costs seven or eight taels, and dry land costs between 1 and 2 taels. With these dozens of mu of land, the family must be quite wealthy."
The village head smiled and said proudly: "Every household in our village has about the same amount of land."
Dazhuzi came over and said, "Master Fang, the county magistrates, the village chiefs, and the neighbors. The eldest lady and the young master are having dinner. Let me take you to the side hall to wait.
No one dared to object; they followed Zhuzi to the side hall to wait.
After sitting down, they continued chatting. Dazhuzi left and called Baizhi, Taohua, and the others to serve them tea. After the maids left, Prefect Fang continued to think about what Bai Lizheng had just said: "How come every household in this small mountain village has so much land?" He asked with confusion. He wondered how the people in Laozhang's village could have so much land. Because every village has 3, 6, 9, etc. Naturally, financial resources vary, and acquiring land is not an easy task...
The village head naturally heard the magistrate's suspicion and confusion, so he did not hide it from him: "Haha, ever since Yu Yatou opened those workshops in the village, every household has one to three people working there. With more money to earn and higher incomes, people started buying land. So, the land has gradually increased.
Prefect Fang: "Nodding, indeed, if every village or county had a few more capable people like the princess, there would be no need to worry about the prosperity of the country." Then I wonder what my father-in-law plans to plant this year.
Seeing how concerned Fang was about people's livelihoods, the village head opened up and chatted with Fang about the fields they were going to plant this year and what they were going to plant. As long as he wasn't a Zhihu person, he would talk about farming with great knowledge and eloquence.
The other county magistrates listened attentively, some with disdain, some with sneers, some eager to try, and some who had no choice but to come because the prefect had arrived. In short, there were all kinds of expressions.
Prefect Fang was also stunned by what he heard. Although he was now a prefect, he was also a top scholar from a farming family, and rose to the prefecture step by step. Of course, he knew how difficult farming was and how little he could earn after a year of hard work. Now, listening to Zheng's words, thinking about the income from farming an acre of land a year, he was full of hope for the future. As long as the people no longer suffered from hunger, what was there to fear from natural disasters and man-made disasters? What was there to fear about the country not being prosperous and strong? What was there to fear? Foreign invasion.
The two were chatting enthusiastically when Siyu and Long Linxiao walked in.
Prefect Fang stood up and said to Long Linxiao, "This humble official greets His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Princess Changning."
Long Linxiao waved his hand: "Do it!"
Prefect Fang: "Your Highness, please assign them all!"
His Royal Highness: "Well, bring one person back from each county. The villagers will just follow the technical consultant's instructions and learn how to do it. If that county magistrate dares to pretend to be uncooperative, don't blame me for not giving him face. The county magistrates below him will be so scared that they won't dare to do it."
Okay, all of you, step back!
The county magistrates and prefects came and went quickly, each leading their men out of Baijia Village. They all boarded their own carriages and headed for their respective county offices. Soon, every county began to study with great fanfare.
In the blink of an eye, half a month has passed, and the seedlings on the mountain have turned green. Tomorrow we will start to let them out little by little.
Today was the day when the technical consultants were out again, sharing their experiences with the various counties. When they returned in the evening, several of them looked dejected and frustrated.
When Li Zheng saw them, he asked what happened. Several uncles told him what happened. Li Zheng was also very angry after hearing it: "This is really outrageous, outrageous. Wait for me to ask Yu Yatou what to do."
The village head said, "Knock, knock."
Dazhuzi: "Who is it?"
Village head: "I, open the door."
Dazhuzi looked righteous and asked with concern as he walked. "Uncle, what's wrong with you?"
Village head: "Let's talk about it later."
Siyu was still in the room discussing with Long Linxiao where to go for a walk and some fun after planting the rice seedlings. At this time, Baizhi came in and said, "The head of the county is here."
The two stopped talking and said, "He came out to greet us. How come the village head grandfather has time to come to visit us today?"
Village head: "Just now, Uncle Youde came back and told me that he was driven out of Qingquan County by the locals and was almost beaten. He didn't even get to see the cultivated seedlings or their emergence. The seedlings are going to be planted in the fields for the next two weeks, but they didn't even send technicians to provide guidance. The temperature has been fluctuating so much. If they can't control it well, all the seeds will be wasted."
