Chapter 85: Negotiation
After listening to Ma Shang's words, the four brothers of the Tian family and Lao Luotou hurriedly got off the kang, bent their legs, and bowed: "Xiaomin doesn't know that the Daoist is coming, please forgive me!" Please forgive me! Please forgive me! Lao Luotou was obviously frightened, and in the face of Ma Shang, who was on the seat, he was so nervous that he couldn't even say words begging for mercy, only saying the words 'please forgive me'.
I don't know a single big character for Lao Luo Toudou, and the biggest official I have ever seen is the village chief in the village, but now when I see a parent official, I am not nervous and afraid. It's no wonder that there are a few people in the Tian family, who usually has nothing to do with who runs to the county government, the four brothers of the Tian family have seen Lizheng at most, and that is because of the reason why they need to do a land deed last time they bought a hundred acres of land.
However, they are not as nervous and scared as Lao Luotou, they are excited. The four brothers of the Tian family didn't expect that their parents would come to their house and talk to their father for an afternoon, and now they have dinner with them.
Xia Zhi stood beside Xu Ming, and couldn't help but pout, saying that if you don't want to talk about your identity, you won't say it. This sudden arrival can also scare and scare an honest person like the Tian family.
Although Xia Zhi didn't guess that Ma Shang was the county order, he also saw that Ma Shang was not an ordinary person, and it was simple to want Xu Ming to bring a few people she knew. Xia Zhi glanced at Doctor Xu, this person is really good at leading people, and he actually gave one of her parents and officials to her family.
At the same time, Xia Zhi was thinking about who Dr. Xu was, needless to say before, Xia Zhi also saw that they must all be in official positions, and they are both civil and martial, but maybe the official position is high and bottom. Coupled with this Ma County Order, Xia Zhi even thought that Dr. Xu was once an imperial doctor, otherwise he would be penniless. The appearance of helping the villagers from time to time. How did you know these dignitaries?
But here the summer solstice still needs to be figured out. was grabbed by Tian Laosi and pressed to the ground: "Adult, children are not sensible, please forgive me!" ”
Tian Laosi moved too fast, and he didn't give Xia Zhi time to react, just a blink of an eye Xia Zhi felt that he was kneeling on the ground, so that Xia Solstice was completely shocked, saying that he was so big except for Grandma Tian and giving New Year's greetings to Tian's family. She hasn't knelt down yet. But then she was also relieved, just when she saw her elders, she bowed and saluted, anyway, she had to kneel at every turn in this ancient world.
"Brother, please get up, I didn't tell you at the beginning because I was afraid that you would kneel at every turn, is this not in the court, don't kneel! Hurry up, please get up" The Tian family quickly knelt down to the ground, but Ma Shang was startled. Hurriedly put on his shoes and helped a few people up.
"Kneel! Kneel! Although Lao Luotou was helped up by Ma Shang. But it seemed more restrained, and the two arms that had been supported by Marchand kept rubbing. Lao Luotou was originally restrained when he saw Ma Shang. Later, because the two discussed about double cropping rice, Lao Luo Tou gradually let go, taking Ma Shang as a doctor Xu, and now that he learned Ma Shang's true identity, he couldn't let go.
"Big brother, aren't you tormenting my brother, all of your own people, what do you need! Just like before, everyone eats, drinks, and talks, how happy they are! Seeing that the Tian family was uncomfortable, Dr. Xu also got off the kang and stepped forward to persuade him.
"Yes, yes, big brother, Kai with a few nephews, go to the kang, I still have something to tell you!" Ma Shang took over the conversation and asked the Tian family to still go to the kang, and he still had to ask about the double cropping rice. If you want to popularize double-cropping rice, you have to ask for the help of the Tian family.
"Nope! This is not appropriate, my lord, you sit, we stand, you say, we listen" Lao Luotou waved his hand, he didn't dare to sit at the same table with the county order, didn't he want his life.
"A few eldest nephews, hurry up and persuade your father to let him sit on the kang, how can there be a reason that the host's family is standing below and the guests are sitting on it. That's not going to work! ”
Doctor Xu saw that Lao Luotou refused to go to the kang, so he wanted the four brothers of the Tian family to persuade him. However, his brother knows Lao Luotou, and he will definitely not serve at the table again at this time. Tian Laosi arched his hand and said to Ma Shang:
"My lord, my dad will definitely not go to the kang again, she is still uncomfortable sitting there, it is better to let him stand below, daddy is still more comfortable, what the county order has to say, we just listen, it doesn't have to be on the table to say!" The words were said to Ma Shang, but Tian Laosi looked at Doctor Xu and said it.
"Well, I think I'll let them stand, I don't know how awkward they will be when they sit on it!" Dr. Xu couldn't persuade him, so he simply stopped persuading. Ma Shang listened to Tian Laosi's words, and knew that he couldn't persuade him, so he gave up, and he was used to this situation.
"Big brother, how about the double cropping rice I told you?" Not dwelling on this matter, Ma Shang immediately returned to the topic, but he did not change his words because of Lao Luotou's restraint and respect, and still called "big brother".
"This ......, to be honest, the matter of this double-season rice is mainly my granddaughter Zhang Luo, and my four sons and I are just running errands for our granddaughter, if this is really going to be promoted, this seedling is a big problem!" Lao Luo didn't dare to say anything to deceive people at this time, but there was a parent official sitting in front of him, and if he didn't do it, he would be thrown into prison.
"The dissatisfied adults said that my family is just trying to plant this year, and the technique of this double season rice is not intended to be hidden from everyone, and we want the people in the village to plant it together next year! As for what adults say about promoting double cropping rice, I don't think it's appropriate! ”
"What's wrong, who is unhappy to collect more food!" Xia Zhi saw that the topic had changed, so he took over the conversation and clarified the position of the Tian family, but double cropping rice should be promoted, not blindly promoted. It's just that before she finished speaking, she was interrupted excitedly by Marchand. Ma Shang wanted to increase the income of ordinary people and border soldiers, but he didn't expect to be said to be inappropriate by a hairy child, so it was strange that he was not excited.
"Don't get excited, old horse, listen to Xia Zhi!" Dr. Xu looked at Xia Zhi with bright eyes, and when he saw her serious look, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart why Xia Zhi was not her granddaughter. Marchand's interruption of the summer solstice made him very unhappy.
"Grandpa Ma, there is naturally no displeasure in how much grain there is, but our family has overharvested this double-season rice, but it doesn't mean that other people's families can also harvest more, if this delays the harvest for a year, won't it hurt others! I can't guarantee a 100% increase in the harvest! Let's talk about pregnant seedlings, I am pregnant with traditional water seedlings, but dry seedlings, but I can't get pregnant a lot at once! ”
Ma Shang didn't think so, but he didn't expect that Xia Zhi said that the head was Tao, and Rao was that he didn't care, but he had to say that Xia Zhi said that it was very rice, and this kind of crop was adapted to local conditions, maybe it was okay here in Tianjia Village, but it was not possible in other places.
"Then what can I do, I can't use such a good method!" Marchand scratched his head, whenever he was irritable, some movements in the barracks would be brought out, which was very different from the polite image he had always portrayed in front of people.
"Grandpa Ma, don't worry, in fact, I also want to promote double-cropping rice, remembering that when our family was hungry in the past, I wanted to make everyone in the world not starving!" The summer solstice is completely a sycophant, but this time he slapped the horse's leg, Ma Shang is most worried about the food and grass of the border soldiers, not that he doesn't care about the people, but he knows that this year is smooth, and the people can't be blessed but they also have food and drink, and the soldiers in the border are completely incomparable.
"If I do this alone, it may be difficult, if it is you, it is a simple thing, you have found the letter of the people, come to me to learn the technique of double season rice, and then plant two seasons in each place, one to see how the specific harvest is, and second, if the promotion of double crop rice they are not physical evidence, people want to believe it is difficult, then you don't look for them, they have to compete for planting!"
In fact, the method of the summer solstice is very simple, that is, to find a few pieces to test the field, and then you will know the results of the road. And the summer solstice also roughly estimated the climate in the north, there should be little difference, and it is not a problem to plant double-cropping rice, but she doesn't dare to say it too completely, or it is better to experiment.
"Hey, yes, why didn't I think of this way, it's still Xiao Xia Zhi smart! That's it! I'll go find someone right away - tomorrow" Listening to Xia Zhi's words, Ma Shang slapped the table and wanted to call someone immediately, but he didn't expect that he was still in Tian's house, so he immediately changed his words and said it was tomorrow. It's just that his shot startled everyone.
Ma Shang looked down at Xia Zhi, who was standing below, and said secretly in his heart, no wonder Lao Xu likes little girls, this little baby is really smart. Look at Lao Luotou and the four brothers of the Tian family, he had heard Lao Xu talk about the Tian family and the Xia Solstice before, but what he didn't expect was that the matter of this double season of rice was handled by the Xia Solstice. Now he has come up with a good idea, which is not something that ordinary children can do.
After agreeing on it, it was not early, Tian Laoda led Dr. Xu and Ma Shang to the newly built house of the Tian family, and Tian Laosi had already instructed the Zheng family to let the Zheng family clean up the two side rooms in Lao Luotou's courtyard for the two of them to rest. The master bedroom is not easy for them to live in, because of the consideration that Tian Chrysanthemum and Tian Meihua are going to come to live, Li said that the house will be built larger, so there are two partial rooms, which just come in handy. The little guy Tian also arranged it properly, and lived directly in the second bedroom of Tian Laoda's yard.
Of course, sending Dr. Xu and Ma Shang to their new home is naturally indispensable for our summer solstice children's shoes, don't forget that she still has an egg-sized bezoar in her hand, she plans to sell the bezoar to Dr. Xu. Waiting for the Tian family to go to Niangniang Town, they still don't know when the road will be. It's better to choose a day than to hit the day, Xia Zhi feels that today is very good, and he wants to find Dr. Xu to talk about the bezoar.
So after Ma Shang and Dr. Xu were all arranged, they were ready to go to bed, but they found that there was still a small summer solstice by their side. (To be continued......)
