Chapter 363: A Bumper Harvest

The matter of going to see Li Yujin and Li Yuqian came to an end, the gears of time kept turning, and they would not change because of a certain person, and soon, it was the autumn harvest season, and the heavy fruits hung on the crops, reflecting the big smiling faces of the farmers, and there was laughter.

The Li family's grain is another bumper harvest, and Li Qingshan has to go to the field to watch it personally every year at this time, telling everyone to pay attention when they harvest it, the grain that has grown for so long cannot be wasted in the ground, and it is a pity to fall into the ground.

"Old lady, don't worry, you still can't trust us? We'll make sure you get cleaned up! A young man greeted Li Qingshan with a loud voice and a laugh.

A large number of people in the back echoed and nodded their heads, promising to do a good job.

In fact, at this time of year, it is the time for everyone to harvest, and the Li family's so many fields are really a huge project, and hundreds of people need to work together every year in order to receive the grain at home on time, load it into the warehouse, and then breathe a sigh of relief.

Originally, they should have collected their own food, and the manpower that the Li family needed should not be easy to find, but the Li family gave a good salary, and the food was real, and everyone was happy to come.

As for his family's food, anyway, there are many people in the family, and one person can do more work, and he can collect it in a hurry, and if he takes out one more person to work in the Li family, he can earn more money, how can such a good condition not be accepted? The big guy can't wait to finish his family's work immediately, and then hire the Li family to work and earn more silver.

"Okay, don't worry, as long as the big guy works hard, this year's salary is definitely indispensable!"

As soon as Li Qingshan's words fell, there was a burst of cheers: "Okay! Good! Good! ”

Looking at the fruitful harvest, my heart is happy, this time of year is Li Qingshan's happiest moment, there is nothing more joyful than seeing a cart of grain pulled home.

Some were harvested in the field, some were pulled home, and the women of the Li family were also very busy at this time, busy directing the subordinates in the family to help, and busy counting the grain in the granary.

Not to mention the harvest scene on the Li family's side, Li Yujin is also on the side, after experiencing the most difficult, painful and arduous time, Tanggu County finally ushered in the harvest season, as early as the time when the grain should be harvested, everyone already knows that this year is a bumper harvest year.

As soon as the experienced old farmer saw the heavy bent crops, he knew that today was a good season, and he was especially grateful to Master Li who ate and lived with the big guys.

The old peasants looked at the sky, even if they were not big people who knew astronomy and geography, they could understand the general weather, judge the day when the autumn harvest should begin, and report the news to Li Yujin.

"Master Li, we can start harvesting the crops, this year's grain will definitely be good!" Li Yujin has worked with them for so long, and the people are not only respectful to him, but also have a kind of family affection, and sincerity is exchanged for sincerity.

"Okay, uncle, then let's start, I'll send someone to sue the big guy!" Li Yujin is very happy, after all, he has been working hard for this thing for such a long time, and finally saw the fruitful harvest, and happily wanted to shout a few words, of course, in front of so many people, he could only put this mood in his heart.

Since everything this year is under the command of Li Yujin, and after planting the land for so many years, everyone can't help but doubt their own level, it turns out that they also ignore a lot of things, but it is the young county master, who impresses the big guy.

At the beginning, no one believed that Li Yujin would have this ability, and they didn't believe that he would lead everyone to make a fortune, but everyone's views gradually changed with Li Yujin's actions, it turned out that this was all true, watching the seedlings grow up day by day and begin to blossom and bear fruit, everyone believed! I believe that this young man will really lead everyone to defeat poverty.

As for why the autumn harvest has begun in Zhixi County, everyone here has not started yet, because everyone is waiting for young people to speak, waiting for the harvest together.

Li Yujin's order came down, and it soon spread to every corner of Tanggu County, and everyone took their tools one after another, and the whole family set out to start grabbing it.

Li Yujin brought his subordinates to visit, and everyone who saw them greeted them warmly: "Lord Li, you are here, look at the grain of the big guy, this year is a fat year!" ”

"Thank you, Master Li, your lord has worked hard!" The adults were carrying baskets to deliver food home, and they were talking to Li Yujin with a smile, and the tiredness on their faces couldn't hide the excitement in their hearts.

Children are the happiest, because they can eat delicious food in the future, they don't have to be hungry every day, at this time they can't help much, keep laughing and playing on the ridges, at this time they are the children should be happy, not those who are weak, hungry at home and can't go out.

Every day, the adults will tell them in their ears that Master Li is their benefactor and must know how to be grateful, but after all, they are children, and they don't know what the heartfelt respect of the adults looks like, but they know that the young man in front of them is their benefactor.

The innocent and romantic children kept running around Li Yujin and playing, and sometimes accidentally splashed Li Yujin with mud.

"Big brother, I'm sorry!" When the child saw the dirt on Li Yujin's body that they had gotten up, he immediately panicked, and hurriedly ran over, lowered his head, and apologized carefully.

"It's okay, let's play!" Li Yujin looked at the happy expressions of the children, and felt the same way, he was also very happy to be able to help, this is the childhood that children should have, and they should not suffer like this.

"Thank you, big brother, big brother, you are a good person!" The child instantly smiled like a flower, ran away happily, and then ran to his own field and said something to his father.

"Dad, mother, I talked to the adults just now!" The children were very excited, as if they had done something amazing, Li Yujin was unattainable in their hearts.

"En, okay, you guys are here to help, don't run around anymore, when the food is all home, my mother will make you something to eat, okay?" How long did the woman look at her child with a tired face, but lovingly? She couldn't remember, she hadn't seen the smiling faces of the children.

"Oooh oh!! Okay, mother, I'm going to work too! "The children are happy and looking forward to tomorrow's food.

Li Yujin looked at the scene of joy and happiness, and was very satisfied that his efforts would eventually pay off!

Qingyuan County, in the same scene, with the help of Li Yuqian's governance, the people also put on their original sad faces, saw hope, and saw a better tomorrow.

In the harvest season, the imperial court has also received the twists and turns from all over the country one after another, the crops of the people have been harvested, this year the wind and rain are smooth, no place has been affected, and the yield is good.

Dongfang Luo saw the news from below, and couldn't help laughing: "Okay, good!" I, Dongling, will surely become stronger and stronger, so that the enemy will not dare to invade! ”

The saint dragon heart was happy, and the hundreds of officials below knelt down to congratulate: "Congratulations to the emperor, my Dongling will be strong, and the ministers are willing to die for this!" ”

"Everyone Aiqing, let's be even, say something quickly, and retreat if you have nothing to do!"

The ministers below really don't have anything to do, and the biggest thing at present is that the harvest has begun one after another in various places, and this year is a good phenomenon, and the officials are also happy.

As for the tax revenue after the grain is received from the family, naturally someone is responsible, and the household department will send people down in a hurry, and collecting taxes is a good thing for them.

Tanglin's current tax is thirty percent, which is not much, the previous dynasty had collected fifty percent, and when the war would be added, the people were miserable, and the current tax was the least for the big guys, within the acceptable range.

With this batch of taxes, there will be a large amount of silver in the treasury, and in addition to the taxes paid by the merchants, the grain tax is the largest source of income for the treasury, and the annual supply to the army depends on these taxes.

As the saying goes, if you have money in your pocket, you don't panic, and it's the same for the country, but when the year is almost over, the silver in the treasury is almost used, although Tanglin does not restrict merchants now, but that is not good.

There are also businessmen who secretly change their accounts, in fact, they have not paid enough at all that should be handed over to the treasury, and the accounts are done very well, so that you have no trace, and ordinary people, how many levels are how many, so many others look at it, it is impossible to break the rules.

It's been done secretly many times, and it's not much use, Dongfang Luo hasn't thought of a better solution yet, so I'll put it aside for now.

"Since there's nothing to do, let's retreat!" After speaking, Dongfang Luo took the lead in leaving the dragon chair, strode away, and walked towards the harem.

Recently, there has been peace in various places, and he has been an emperor for so many years, this is the only time that Dongfang Luo feels relaxed, and he doesn't have to face the twists and turns of various places all day long, and keep reviewing.

Just as he was about to walk to the imperial study, he saw Dongfang Ye follow.

"What's the matter?" It's rare, I didn't leave immediately after the morning and the night in the east!

"Brother Huang, I'm here to report something to you!"

Dongfang Ye then followed behind Dongfang Luo, and carefully recounted what the two Li brothers did in the local area, and he also saw the efforts of Li Yujin and Li Yuqian.

Since Li Yujin and Li Yuqian took office, he knows all the big and small around them, he is very concerned, and he originally thought that if the two of them could not handle it well, he would send someone over to help, who knows, the two of them actually did a good job.

As for this year's grain output in Tanggu County and Qingyuan County, he looked at it as soon as he received it, and it was a full 50 percent increase over last year's output.

Since no one brought it up in the early dynasty, and no one spoke for the two brothers, he could not bury their abilities, and their abilities were obvious to all.

Dongfang Ye is not a person who forms a gang in the court, he has always only stood on Dongfang Luo's side, knowing that Li Yujin and Li Yuqian have achievements, but they did not speak.

"Brother Huang, the two brothers of the Li family who were sent to Tanggu County and Qingyuan County this year are very prominent, under his leadership, the average grain output of the people in the two counties this year has increased by fifty percent, at least most of the people can take care of food and clothing this year, and there is no need for the imperial court to send many people over to see!

"Really? The two brothers of the Li family are really good! Dongfang Luo was stunned, he really didn't know this, he didn't have to read every one, and if it wasn't very important, it would be handed over to the minister in charge of it.

He glanced at Dongfang Ye, he really liked the little girl of the Li family, this is not much, he came to him to ask for benefits for the Li family, and he was so serious, hehe, Dongfang Luo laughed angrily, this younger brother is too anxious to ask for credit for them!

But even if Dongfang Ye doesn't say it, as long as he learns about it, he will find a way to promote the two brothers: "Well, young people are malleable, let's write them down first, after all, they are still young, and they haven't been officials for a long time, so it's impossible to get promoted directly to Galu, wait until they make some more achievements!" ”

Dongfang Ye nodded clearly, he also knew that he was a little anxious, that is, Li Hui saw that he would be fifteen years old after the New Year, it was time to wait, after waiting for so many years, he really couldn't wait, before that, he must solve the problem of the Li family.

"Don't worry, I have my own arrangements, and I will definitely let you return with a beautiful hug!" Dongfang Luo looked at Dongfang Ye with a smile, in addition to state affairs, this cold-faced brother only cares about people and things related to Li Hui.

"Brother Huang, don't forget, the red bricks made by the Li family, as well as those heating, are all the credit of the Li family, this can be said to be the merit of the two brothers before they became officials!" Dongfang Ye is also racking his brains, if these are counted on Li Yujin and Li Yuqian, it is okay to directly add them to the rank of knight.

"En, I know, when the time comes, it's okay to be rewarded together!" Dongfang Luo thought about the comfortable winter in the past few years, and felt that the Li family had a lot of credit: "Don't worry, next year we will give their brothers two rewards, and now is not the time!" ”

Looking at Dongfang Ye's appearance that he was afraid that he would forget, Dongfang Luo was speechless, he was still the king of a country, so he was not so unreliable!

Tanglin has a habit, that is, in the summer of each year, officials in various places will be evaluated, and there will naturally be a series of rewards for outstanding officials, and those who are poor or inactive, exploiting the people, will be dismissed directly.

Tanglin does not object to officials doing business, after all, a large family has to be raised, and Tanglin's laws are still very humane, but most people will feel that businessmen have a low status and are unwilling.

But you can't rely on your official position, for the sake of disaster in the township, this plot is strict, so what these officials are most afraid of is the annual assessment, of course, the breeze on their sleeves is naturally not afraid of anything.

After getting a satisfactory answer from Dongfang Luo, Dongfang Ye left satisfied, and his face was shocked with unprecedented satisfaction, which made the eyes of many palace people widen (to be continued. )
