Chapter 1269: There is a drought, and the dragon asks for rain

Long Xiao said without hesitation: "Pick out the best 10,000 pieces in each kiln, and destroy the rest?" Wu Dalang: "Huh? What a shame it would be to destroy them all." Vertex" "Long Xiao: "It's not a pity at all, if so many kilns come out every year, is it still worth it?" Only if most of them are destroyed, this 10,000 pieces of each kiln will be worth much, think about it, is it worth selling 5 taels of silver, or is it cost-effective to sell 50,000 taels of silver? ”。 Wu Dalang still knows how to settle accounts, and he thinks it's good when he thinks about it, but he is a little reluctant: "That's the truth, but I'm really a little reluctant." Long Xiao said with a smile: "Besides, the kiln change is supplied to the palace compound, we sell it ourselves for the first time, the emperor will not blame, if every kiln change is like this, then the emperor will definitely be unhappy, we will be in trouble, think about it, how can the things used by the emperor be the same as those used by the common people in the world, isn't it arrogance?" ”。 Wu Dalang was speechless, so he had to carry out Long Xiao's order, and after he went back, he selected 20,000 pieces, and destroyed the rest. Later, a system was formed, as long as the kiln changed, only 10,000 pieces were left, and the rest were all destroyed, and these 10,000 pieces were only supplied to the palace, and none of them flowed to the society.

In this way, the 1o million pieces that Long Xiao began to sell are even more valuable, even the 80,000 pieces left by himself have become priceless treasures, and have become the choice of gifts for Long Xiao to others, and the Wu official kiln has also won the title of the best official kiln in the Sui Dynasty, and even the general porcelain has become a reluctant treasure by some merchants to other countries, so the Wu official kiln also earns a profit of 1.4 billion a year, not to mention.

There are tens of thousands of shops in Shenwu County, which are bustling every day, and those who do business like sunny days, but Shenwu County has had some drought in recent months, although it is not very serious. Shenwu County has water conservancy facilities all over the county, and there is no problem with watering the ground, but the continuous drought is also unbearable for the people of Shenwu County, after all, the use of water conservancy facilities is not as timely as the rain from God, therefore, everywhere is begging for rain, but God just doesn't rain, even the establishment of some old people are setting up altars to ask for rain, and slowly eating it reached Long Xiao's ears.

Long Xiao suddenly remembered that Long Jiao and Long Ball were transformed by Jiaolong, and they could call the wind and rain, so he asked Long Jiao: "Long Jiao, if you can call the wind and rain, how much rain can you have?" Long Jiao was very happy to see the master asking, and finally he could be put to use, so he said a little proudly: "Back to the master, if I am alone, it can rain for an hour, and the area is about the same as a county, if we are husband and wife, this rain can reach two hours, and the area is larger." Long Xiao: "Great, so let's do it, I also want to organize a ceremony to pray for rain, and you husband and wife can cooperate with me." Dragon Jiao and Dragon Ball nodded yes. Long Xiao posted the notice, saying that he also wanted to pray for rain for the atrocities in the county.

The people of the county were boiling, and on the day of asking for rain, more than 100,000 people gathered in front of the county yamen of the county seat, all of whom came to see the county lord with rain gear to ask for rain. Some said: "What are you doing with rain gear, even if the county lord begs for rain, it may not be able to move the heavens, and it will definitely not rain now", and some said: "Our county lord is also a strange person, you haven't seen it, in the past few years in Shenwu County, our people have lived a good life, maybe Lord Long is the stars in the sky and descended to earth, and his old man begged for rain, maybe it will rain."

Others said: "I believe that Lord Long can ask for rain, no, I have brought all the rain gear", and some bet: "If Lord Long can ask for rain this time, I will set up a tablet for Lord Long, and offer it every day, but the people of the whole county are asking for rain, and there is a little cloud meaning?" However, most of them still believe it, and they feel that they may be unofficial and unpositional when they ask for rain, and they can't move God at all, Lord Long is the county magistrate, maybe he can do it. More than 100,000 people, all holding umbrellas, gathered in front of the Yamen of the county magistrate, and looked at Long Xiao and asked for rain. Long Xiao set up the altar, put the three lives, the incense case and wrote a long prayer for rain.

Then, Long Xiao imitated the story of Zhuge Liang begging for the wind, and he also begged for rain in makeup, and then secretly arranged for Long Jiao and Dragon Ball to fly into the sky, and began to call for wind and rain and make waves. Sure enough, after Long Xiao begged for rain for nearly an hour, the sky was covered with dark clouds, lightning and thunder, and it rained heavily in an instant, and it had been raining for two hours. This caused a sensation in the entire Shenwu County, and everyone praised it one after another, saying that Lord Long asked for rain and true spirits. It doesn't rain everywhere in the entire Shenwu County, and the Dragon Lord keeps making a noise as soon as he asks for rain, so Long Zhi County must be a god descending from the heavens, otherwise it won't be so effective.

It's raining in Shenwu County, and there is a little bit at the junction with Shenwu County, but there is still no rain in other places. At the beginning, the people of Shenwu County believed it, but the people in other counties didn't believe it, thinking that Shenwu County was just a coincidence. However, after a few months, Long Xiao begged for rain again, and it was still the same as last time, it rained heavily for two hours, and the people of Shenwu County were very proud. I feel that there is a god around me who can ask for rain, and he must be a god descending to earth.

Slowly, it spread to other counties, because it rained several times, and it was rain in Shenwu County, and there was no rain in other places, so the people in other counties had to believe it. began to complain that the county magistrate in his county was very likely to scrape the ground too hard, and even the heavens came to punish him, and it didn't rain at all. Under the pressure of the common people, several surrounding counties came up with an idea, taking a lot of money, to ask Long Xiao to ask for rain in their county, as long as there is rain, there will be heavier gifts.

Long Xiao is in trouble, Long Xiao came up with this idea for the sake of my people's eyes and ears, and there is another meaning, that is, to force the people to believe in the way of heaven, accumulate virtue and do good, otherwise they will not create the illusion of asking for rain. In fact, it was all the credit of Long Jiao and Long Ball, so Long Xiao asked Long Jiao if he was willing to go to the surrounding counties to rain. And the dragon said, "As long as the owner likes it, don't say ask for a few rains, just do it every day", Long Xiao was very moved, so he took the dragon Jiao and the dragon ball, and asked for a few rains for several counties with special drought conditions around the city. Of course, it was as soon as he asked for it, and Long Xiao's fame suddenly spread farther, and they all knew that there was a county in Shenwu County, which could call the wind and call the rain, and it would rain just by asking for rain.

But this career has a bad side, and it slowly spread into the inner courtyard of the palace, and even the emperor heard about it, and the emperor was shocked: This is worth it, if Long Xiao will call for wind and rain, with such a ability, his position as emperor will be shaky. So, the emperor ordered Long Xiao to rush to the capital and enter the palace. The emperor asked Long Xiao if there was a fact, Long Xiao felt that he had aroused the emperor's suspicion, and felt that his joke was too big, if the emperor was suspicious of himself, then he would be finished. The emperor is most afraid of rebellion, if there is such a strange person, the emperor will find a way to kill him.

Long Xiao categorically did not admit that he would ask for rain, and said that it was just a coincidence, and said that the heavens and the earth are impermanent, where can ordinary people change at will. If he could call for wind and rain and do what he would do to know the county, the emperor had to believe it, so he let Long Xiao return to Shenwu County. Long Xiao didn't dare to ask for rain casually, as long as it needed rain in Shenwu County, just let it rain on Long Jiao and Dragon Ball, and there would be no rain rituals.

Despite this, the number of rains in Shenwu County is still more than that of the surrounding counties, and the people of Shenwu County are still in good weather. There are 3oo acres of farmland in Shenwu County, in addition to frequent rain, there are water conservancy facilities all over the county, and the farmland has obtained a bumper harvest, that is, the general farmland is high-yielding, reaching the output of more than 8oo catties, and there are some fertile places where the yield per mu is not strange. In this way, the fetish county ... [This chapter is not finished, please click on the next page to continue reading!] ]
