……

The magistrate of Fang County is a second-class Jinshi in the current department. He was raised by rich clothes and fine food since he was a child. When the imperial decree came down, the family almost didn't have any troubles. Since ancient times, the ministers who have been in the cabinet have been reused, and they all started from the Imperial Academy. , how can anyone be sent to the backcountry!

In the end, it is the men who can see clearly. This is because the Holy Majesty really wants to select talents. It is just to make people understand the people's livelihood and the people's conditions first. They don't have to jump up and down in the capital, and they will be honest...

Officials from all over the country have to give the emperor's greetings. Since it is to test people, I am afraid that the emperor will pick out the papers of the dozen or so Jinshi specially sent to read.

County magistrate Fang was born in that kind of family since he was a child, so smart, he made up his mind to take this first step, and Kaichun really went to inspect the six villages under the jurisdiction of Qingpu Town.

"I remember that there was a family in Liushutun who specially delivered rabbits to restaurants and butcher shops in the town, right?"

"Yes, the cook has inquired specifically, and she said that they have raised a large group of rabbits by some means, and now in the town, except for the occasional wild rabbits are caught, all they eat are theirs." The man in the blue shirt The little servant panted slightly and replied, "Master, it's getting late today, let's go back first, and tomorrow..."

Before the boy could finish speaking, Fifth Young Master Fang had already walked towards the farmers in the nearby field.

"Hey, what are you doing, look carefully at your feet, look at these, the bud seedlings have just emerged!" Li Dahua yelled loudly from a distance.

Fifth Young Master Fang hurriedly stepped aside, probably not used to walking on such a field, he staggered in the soft and uneven field, and almost didn't fall to the ground!

"Master—"

The boy yelled, and Fifth Young Master Fang stopped him with a wave of his hand.

"Brother, sister-in-law, may I ask which family raises rabbits in the village?"

A smile appeared on Liu Datie's face next to him, and he opened his mouth to answer.

"Why do you ask this? You want to learn how to raise rabbits! My old lady told you..." Li Dahua pinned the small shovel to the ground with all his strength, looked suspiciously at Fifth Young Master Fang, and started talking with a clap of thunder.

In the beginning, Fifth Young Master Fang really didn't know how to deal with such loud-voiced women who were completely different from the ladies in the boudoir. After staying in Qingpu Town for almost a year, at least he got used to it a little.

Fifth Young Master Fang directly touched a few copper coins and handed them to Li Dahua, "...I just want to see something rare, smelly, who would like to raise a big nest in the house... Please, sister-in-law, show me the way!"

Just pretending to be the young master who waits for rich people to have nothing to do!

Li Dahua put the copper away, and there was a smile on his face, "If you ask me, you are asking the right person. The one who raises rabbits is my eldest son and he is the head of the family. Who in the village is not jealous, but no one has that ability... ..."

"His mother, take this young master there, go back and rest, I'm in the field!" Liu Datie urged.

Li Dahua took the small shovel, quickly put two baskets of miscellaneous wild vegetables and young grass into one, and lifted it vigorously, preparing to take one basket back first.

"Just leave it alone, Dahua, wait for me, Gousheng doesn't mean you can't do heavy work!" Liu Datie shouted.

Li Dahua rolled his eyes, and casually stuffed a big carrying basket into the boy's arms, "Please help me carry it!"

The young servant stared at Li Dahua who was not polite, and called out for help, "Master!"

"Just work hard!" Young Master Fang Wu said with a smile on his lips.

The boy put the basket on his back with a sad face, hung the burden around his neck, moved it to his chest, and followed Li Dahua all the way panting.

Fortunately, Li Dahua's health has deteriorated in the past two years, and he can no longer walk as fast as before, otherwise he will still suffer.

"Sister-in-law, was that the wasteland you opened up just now?" Fifth Young Master Fang asked.

"That's right, it just came out in the spring of this year. We have a small family and only cultivated a few acres. Those with more labor in the village got more than ten acres for nothing... Raising rabbits is not a real job after all. The whole family is hard-headed. I'd rather build a barren hill than develop a land well..." Li Dahua muttered all the way, regardless of whether the young master of the National People's Congress was willing to listen or not.

Sure enough, the corner of the boy's mouth showed signs of twitching.

Fifth Young Master Fang listened patiently.

"...Raising rabbits is not an easy job. There are hundreds of cages, and they are cleaned every few days. There is no time to stop. Whenever I have time, I go to the mountains. I don't know how many grass seeds I eat in a year..."

Li Dahua suddenly changed the subject and began to talk about the difficulties of raising rabbits.

Both of them were a little confused, and they really didn't know why the woman complained about this.

"Ahem!" Li Dahua talked for a long time, and when they arrived at the door, the two of them still didn't respond, so they had to clear their throats vigorously, "The rabbit can't be frightened, it doesn't matter if you see it, maybe this rabbit will have a few times." The sky is not long, and all that can be consumed is food, so it's not worth it!"

The boy coughed violently.

Fifth Young Master Fang nodded dumbfoundingly, "Don't worry, sister-in-law!"

The mountain official felt sorry for Gousheng, so he built a house on the mountain, where he helped him, drove Gousheng back, and told him to take care of the rabbit.

Gousheng had to agree, thinking about changing shifts with the mountain officials tomorrow, and now he was feeding and watering one cage after another, and carefully picked out the rabbits that looked listless, and locked them in a small side room far away. , I am afraid that the sick rabbit passed it to other rabbits.

After raising rabbits for the past two years, a few or even dozens of them died of illness every now and then. It’s no surprise that the dog leftovers are no longer strange. Just be more careful and don’t make more rabbits suffer!

If raising rabbits can make money, in fact, it all depends on the low food price here, and rabbit meat is still rare!

"Gousheng, Shanguan, are you at home? Is anyone there?" Li Dahua was satisfied now, and shouted at the top of his voice.

"Hua Ya, go and open the door, I'll do the rest!"

Hua Ya responded, put down the feed mixed with grass seeds and various coarse grains, and ran to the front yard quickly.

There were still four or five cages left, and Gousheng quickly cleaned them up. He fetched water and used soap to clean his face and hands carefully before greeting Li Dahua.

"Where did the stinky problem come from..." Li Dahua wiped his face indiscriminately with the hot water used by Gousheng, but the crevices between his fingers were still dark, and he didn't wash it carefully at all.

Soap is a rarity in the villages. Only people with rich families can buy one as a dowry for a girl before she gets married. Usually, they are not willing to use it, but they are only willing to use it. Washing hands and face have to be used separately. A few bucks!

"Mother, who are they?" Gou Sheng looked at the two of them and asked.

The one standing in front has delicate and fair face on exposed hands, bookish all over, wearing an ordinary long gown, but it is not made of Qingpu Town's material. Not stiff, but with a suitable smile on his face, he has a calm demeanor.

The one in the back with a small bundle just looks like a slave in his attire, and he is bending over slightly, panting heavily.

At the same time, Young Master Fang Wu was also observing the person in front of him, but he didn't expect that the one who almost wrapped up the town's rabbit meat was just a half-grown child...

Li Dahua looked at the two of them out of the corner of his eyes, and murmured.

Fifth Young Master Fang took out a bunch of copper coins from his sleeve pocket and handed them to Gou Sheng.

Gou Sheng didn't pick it up, but just looked at Li Dahua.

Li Dahua moved his legs, "This young master said he wanted to see the rabbit!"

Gousheng paused. He had visited a farm before. Everyone in the large-scale farm had to be strictly disinfected and put on protective clothing. The breeders usually couldn’t leave the factory easily, and all food had to go through strict inspections, just because they were afraid of viruses. Being brought in... Now, even though it is impossible to do this step, Gou Sheng pays special attention on weekdays, and does not easily take people into the backyard.

"I'm just curious, it doesn't matter!" Li Dahua explained.

"...The county magistrate said that we will come back when spring begins..."

Gou Sheng's mind suddenly flashed the words "Duck Egg", and his heart suddenly lit up.

In the past few years in the village, Li Qingyuan's third brother is barely considered a son, but how can those pretending young men compare with this young man in front of him!

"Your name?"

"Your surname is Fang."

Gousheng became more and more sure. Although he didn't have the reverence for the officials and gentlemen like Liu Datie, he didn't dare to be negligent.

"Young Master Fang, please come in, my mother's rude words, please forgive me!" Gou Sheng said cautiously.

Young Master Fang was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect such keen people to exist in Fangye Land.

Gou Sheng led the two to the back, and Hua Ya led Xiao Jiu to help Li Dahua pick out the wild vegetables.

"...Actually, the main thing is to be careful and take care of it, and then..." Gousheng said the things to pay attention to when raising rabbits.

That said, it was dark.

Young master Fang Wu, the county magistrate of Qingpu Town who has been in office for less than a year is amazed. Ordinary people just support themselves and their dolls and don’t pay attention to it. No wonder no one can raise rabbits except this child’s family. Yes, it seems that this road will not work!

The young magistrate Fang could not help but sigh.

"Is there anything bothering you, Master?" Gou Sheng asked...

When the mountain official came back, Gou Sheng had already agreed to let the two of them stay at night, and enthusiastically cooked and cooked some good menus for the table, and called Dayong to come over for dinner.

After Liu Datie and Li Dahua knew that Fifth Young Master Fang was the county magistrate, they wished they could hide outside and never come back. How could they entertain guests!

Gousheng, Shanguan, Darong, and County Magistrate Fang sat at a table in the main room, while Liu Datie and Li Dahua ate together with Li Qingyuan in the kitchen, and Li Dahua scolded him from time to time.

In addition to the rabbits raised at home, scrambled eggs with garlic sprouts, and some bacon left over from last winter, and a few kinds of vegetables, dried vegetables, pickles, sauerkraut, etc., there are more than a dozen dishes, which can be taken out at home now. The best thing ever.

Fortunately, Dayong brought a jug of wine brewed by himself, so he could deal with it at least.

"There is nothing good at home, please forgive me, just eat something to fill your stomach." Gousheng said politely.

"You're welcome, everyone sit down!" County Magistrate Fang said with a smile.

After taking their seats one by one, the mountain official was still taciturn.

Gou Sheng also felt quite uncomfortable. It is impossible for an ordinary person to suddenly become a talent even if he lives half his life longer. How many people would say bad things to an elementary school teacher...

Fang County Magistrate obviously received a strict upbringing since he was a child, he was particular about eating without talking, he tasted every dish twice, and only had a drink of wine.

After dinner.

Gou Sheng made a can of chrysanthemum tea and served it.

Several people were drinking tea and talking in the yard.

County magistrate Fang really didn't have any pretensions, and the words that Gou Sheng had to say went through his mind several times, and finally he couldn't help but say them.

"Master Fang, in fact, although the climate in our place is not very good, the most important thing is that there are not many suitable crops for planting. If we can find a few suitable for this place..."

Magistrate Fang nodded thoughtfully.

……

In the evening, Gousheng and Shanguan vacated the kang in the inner room for County Magistrate Fang's master and servant to sleep, and they crowded outside with Hua Ya and Xiao Jiu for the night.

"Morning!"

"You're up!" Gou Sheng brought out the hot water and said with a smile.

"Gousheng, you don't have to be so polite..."

After the mountain official had been busy in the backyard, when he returned to the front yard, he saw Gou Sheng with a smile on his face, and the person standing next to him was really a beautiful tree, looking at it, he couldn't tell...

After a simple breakfast, Fang County Magistrate's master and servant left in Uncle Ma's donkey cart.

Li Dahua exaggeratedly stood in the yard and beat his heart, "These officials love to toss people when they have nothing to do..."

Knowing that she had robbed the magistrate of the county, Li Dahua's heart was hanging all the time. It was useless to persuade her, and she didn't sleep well all night.

After hearing this, Gou Sheng helped Li Dahua into the main room, dumbfounded, "Mother, you should rest assured now, lie down for a while while it's still early, and don't sleep in the afternoon, so that you won't fall asleep at night."

"Understood." Li Dahua responded, unable to hold herself back and lay down on the kang.

The mountain was still under construction, and the mountain officials fed the rabbits and prepared to go up the mountain with a big basket on their backs.

"I'll go today, you can rest at home for a while!" Gou Sheng saw the mountain official going out from afar, and hurriedly stopped him.

Shan Guan shook his head, pushed Gou Sheng away and continued to move forward.

Gou Sheng grabbed the basket, "It's my turn, or I won't let you feed the rabbit in the morning!"

"It doesn't have to be so clear."

The mountain official swayed left and right, shaking the leftover dog's hand away, and strode forward.

Gou Sheng ran a few steps before catching up, and asked suspiciously, "Are you angry?"

Shan Guan shook his head.

"Then what's wrong with you? Are you unhappy?" Gou Sheng frowned and asked.

The mountain official didn't speak, and walked around Gou Sheng.

"I don't like you like this, you are a big man, just talk if you have something to say." Gou Sheng pulled him back and said.

Shan Guan glanced at Gou Sheng, "Go into the room and talk!"

The two went back to the house one after the other.

Hua Ya took Xiao Jiu in the yard, ready to wash clothes, and looked at the two in surprise.

"Brother, Brother Gousheng, why are you back again?"

"Brothers have something to say, Hua Ya will take the little brother out to play for a while." Shan Guan said with a straight face.

Xiao Jiu posted it on Hua Ya, this child has always been timid, so Gou Sheng hurriedly smiled at the two of them, "Okay, let's go out and play for a while, and wash the clothes later!"

Hua Ya responded and led Xiao Jiu out.

"Xiao Jiu is scared by you..." Gou Sheng chased into the room and said.

Shanguan closed the door with a bang.

Gou Sheng looked at the man with a bad face in surprise, "What's wrong with you?"

Shanguan swallowed, "You and I are already married..."

"Get married? Oh, that's the one from last time!" Gou Sheng nodded.

"Well, um—" Shanguan suddenly faltered again.

"what happened?"

"We are a family, and we don't have to divide the work so clearly. I should do the heavy work, and, and, I'm not happy that you are so intimate with other men!" Shan Guan finished in one breath, carrying a basket on his back. He turned around abruptly, opened the door and rushed out.

Gou Sheng was almost knocked into the air by the huge pannier on the back of the mountain official, and it took him a long time to recover, rubbing his numb face, he raised his eyes and saw that the man had disappeared.

After a long meeting at the top of the kang, Gou Sheng recalled what the mountain official said, and laughed secretly in his heart, but children at the age of twelve or thirteen began to take it seriously, no wonder people say that teenagers have weird and difficult minds—after all Gou Sheng still didn't take it to heart, and he didn't understand that a young man who had been in charge of the world for three years would not have those spoiled psychological problems, he was really serious!

Therefore, if you have been relying on the "advanced" experience that Gousheng thinks to be acting, this person should suffer a big fall!

Now that the mountain official had already gone to the mountain, Gou Sheng searched around at home again, how many things could there be in such a small yard, just a small vegetable garden in front, and when it was noon, he also went up the mountain with a backpack on his back. Walking - please come out on the mountain, there are many wild vegetables and weeds, all of which are useful things.

The mountain official was still a little uncomfortable seeing Gou Sheng, so he hid in the nearby field to weed.

Gou Sheng looked at the courtyard which he could already see, and nodded in satisfaction.

There is a spacious main room in the middle, with rooms on both sides, the kitchen on the far left, and three rooms of different sizes next to the kitchen. There are several kennels in the front near the entrance of the yard, and there are chicken coops and huts in the backyard. The old ones are left in both the front yard and the backyard, and the fences are planted only after the houses are repaired.

"Shanguan, let's go, let's go to the mountain over there and find some good things to grow!" Gou Sheng shouted loudly.

The mountain official responded, dumped the grass in the basket under the shade of the tree, walked over quickly, peeked at Gousheng several times, and seeing Gousheng's expression was the same, he suddenly felt relieved.

It seems that the cultural difference is really an insurmountable gap!

They found two prickly ash trees, a fruit tree, and a lot of herbs. The two carried them each, and the other dragged two small saplings. It was getting late.

"The saplings were planted on the hillside to the west, and some of the baskets were planted near our yard." Gou Sheng said with a heavy breath.

"Yes." The mountain official responded, "I'll get the tree!"

"No, I know you have great strength, so you won't be tired!"

The entire courtyard wall was built with only one door left in front, Gou Sheng was too lazy to carry a few saplings around a large circle, the wall more than one meter high, stepped on the cracks in the rocks and turned over.

"Phew, no, I have to find a way in the future. Anyone can climb over this wall, and the few rabbits should be caught!" After planting the tree, Gou Sheng took a long breath, regardless of whether it was dirty or not. , Lying in the thatch said.

After the spring grass grows, Gousheng has caught more than [-] half-sized rabbits and put them on the mountain. Unfortunately, those rabbits that are living in the pen can no longer be released on the mountain.
