"Don't talk nonsense! What can happen to the prince? When Zhang Tingchang heard this, he was anxious on the spot, "You just had an accident." ”

"Yes, yes, something happened to me." The lord of Si'er hurriedly responded, and then asked cautiously, "Junhou, there won't be any trouble, right?" ”

"There will always be some trouble, otherwise how could the government buy food at this time?"

Zhang Tingchang sighed, "This trouble, it's not big, it's not small." ”

"If the imperial court can send grain to Liangzhou one day earlier, there won't be any trouble."

"But even if you don't have your family's food, it doesn't matter if you think about it, anyway, the prince has such a big ability."

Si'er's adult glanced at Zhang Tingchang, his lips moved, and finally he didn't speak.

When Pavilion Chief Zhang saw him like this, he couldn't help but say angrily:

"If there's a fart, let it go! It's in your house, and it's like I'm here to raid it! ”

"Yes...... It is a little bit to be able to help. Si'er's adults finally mustered up their courage, but their voices were still not loud, "It's okay to do your best." ”

Speaking of this, his face, which had been marked by the years of suffering, showed a look of worry, "Otherwise, I will feel uneasy." ”

He doesn't understand any big truths, only that his family can live like this because of the legacy of the prince.

And the hope of the family to turn over is in the school, and as for the Nanxiang School, it was established by Junhou himself.

If the warehouse collects grain at a high price because the prince needs grain, then his family's surplus grain is taken out and sold, which is right.

"Besides, there is still more than a month before the wheat can be harvested, and I am not afraid that my family will go hungry."

When Pavilion Chief Zhang heard this, he gave a thumbs up: "Good man!" ”

"In my own family, I only kept a month's worth of grain, and I plan to sell the rest."

Pavilion Chief Zhang also said his plan, "I originally wanted to stay for two months, but the one at home was more simply than me, so I was only allowed to stay for a month and a half." ”

Speaking of the troubles at home, Pavilion Chang Zhang smiled a little embarrassedly:

"She said that the price of grain is so high now, it is really not good, and when the wheat is harvested, she will go back and buy some more, and she can't say that she can earn a few more buckets."

Si'er's adult smiled innocently: "Yes, earn a few more buckets." ”

It doesn't really matter if you make money or not.

Cangtou Qiantou, which one lacks those copper coins?

What is missing is the ticket, okay?

The people, who had only come out of the hunger of previous years, valued food more than anything else.

At this time, most of them are willing to take out the stored grain, and most of them have the most simple wish: if they can help the prince a little bit, they will have peace of mind.

Feng Sang Feng silkworm is not called in vain.

"Then it's decided, while it's still dark, I'll go to the other houses in the village for a walk."

Zhang Tingchang got up, "Wait a few days, these villages in our pavilion will put together the grain and sell it, and let outsiders see it, although we don't have much ability, but our conscience is worthy of heaven and earth." ”

As he spoke, he walked out of the courtyard.

"You...... Walking. ”

Si'er's adult held his head for a long time before he spoke.

Zhang Tingchang has long been gone.

A few days later, as soon as the sun had risen, covering the earth with a layer of gold, the official road began to be noisy.

In April, the rain gradually increased, or it was gloomy from time to time, and it was rare to see a day without sunrise.

Taking advantage of this rare good weather, the people who were willing to sell grain carried the grain and pushed it with chicken carts, and Zhang Tingchang even found a few ox carts.

Raising his whip, he waved it in mid-air, "Go!" ”

The ox cart began to creak and creak in the direction of the school.

In fact, the few villages in charge of Pavilion Chief Zhang did not have too much surplus grain.

At least it was a lot less than the other kiosks that they had arrived at the warehouse near the academy one step earlier.

"Oh, cripple Zhang, you're also here to sell grain!"

Someone walked over and said hello.

Zhang Tingchang glanced at the other party with slanted eyes and sneered:

"What's wrong? There's a message on it, won't let me come? ”

"How dare you! It's just that your pavilion, who doesn't know that there are more mountains, when it comes to planting mulberry and raising silkworms, no one dares to speak in front of you, but when it comes to this food, ......"

The person who came half turned around, raised his chin, and motioned to Pavilion Chief Zhang to look at the pile of grain bags on the flat ground in front of the school:

"See, sacks! It was specially sent to us by the warehouse, specially used to load grain! ”

Seeing the other party's triumphant appearance, Zhang Tingchang snorted and said disdainfully:

"How much food?"

"Heh......"

The abundance of food must be remarkable!

"Hehe......" Zhang Tingchang said one more word than the other party, and then pushed the four children next to him forward, "Food is valuable, is knowledge valuable?" ”

"Today, we Pavilion will send someone to the warehouse to do it, not to mention anything else, this writing is calculated, and we can still take a hand!"

This year, the school will send a place to Qiongdu, and Si'er must have accounted for one.

saw Si'er's blushing face and a little embarrassed look, and then saw Zhang Tingchang's arrogant demeanor.

The other party was as disgusting as eating a green-headed fly, gritted his teeth and said:

"Old Pifu Zhang! I've never seen such a shameless person as you, count you ruthless! ”

As he spoke, he immediately turned around and left.

Zhang Tingchang pressed the other party's head, and suddenly his thoughts were clear, his mood was comfortable, and he laughed.

At that moment, he arranged for someone to find a place to unload the grain, and he went to negotiate in person.

Upon learning that another batch of grain sellers had arrived, the steward of the warehouse was overjoyed.

Hearing that the most awake baby in the school also came to help, the steward's face suddenly turned into a chrysanthemum.

In these ten pavilions and eight miles, I really want to find a few students who can write and calculate, just those students in the math hall.

Those pavilion chiefs or something, it's easy to say when you're in the army.

When you arrive at the place, there is no one to supervise you, and you can still recognize a few words, and it is great to be able to memorize the ninety-nine decisions.

And they have their own things to do, how can they find time to help?

"Wonderful, wonderful!"

The steward took the notebook and pen and ink, and asked Si'er to sit at the table, "You can remember as much grain as you shout outside, this matter shouldn't be difficult for you, right?" ”

Si'er looked at the account book, and saw that it was just written on He Ting, He Township, and how much grain was sold.

For him, it was still within his ability, and he nodded immediately.

Seeing this, the steward said to Pavilion Chief Zhang, "I'll stay first, baby, and eat with the people in our warehouse tonight, and I'll personally send him back to the village at that time." ”

"Don't lose people, my pavilion is counting on a reading seed!"

Pavilion Chief Zhang still commanded repeatedly.

"What are the rules we have here, others don't know, you don't know?"

The steward said angrily, "Don't worry, when the time comes, give him another piece of meat, and it will be regarded as a reward." ”

"That's good, that's good."

Zhang Tingchang said happily.

"Look at your buckle search sample, do you want me to tell you another piece of gossip?"

"What's the matter? Let's hear it. ”

"I heard that after three days, the village that can come to sell grain will have more silkworm seeds after the summer harvest."

"Is that true?"

Pavilion Chang Zhang's eyes widened suddenly, and he cried out in a lost voice.

The mulberry tree in Yue Shan is different from other places, it is a mulberry that can raise good silkworms.

But apart from the mulberry tree, silkworm seeds are more important.

The first season of silkworms is raised in a year, and everyone has their own silkworm seeds.

Even if something happens, you can borrow some from the government.

But if you want to raise silkworms in the second season, most of them have to be taken from the government.

The source of the government's second-season silkworm seeds basically comes from the Xinghan Society.

It is impossible for all families to meet the needs of the second crop of silkworm seeds, so the government generally distributes them in the school and notifies the nearby villages to come and get them.

And it is also given priority to families with students at home, which is regarded as a kind of subsidy.

At the same time, it is also a means for Xinghan to promote education and train junior technicians.

The illiterate bottom, for capital, is pure consumables, or the kind that can be replaced at any time.

They simply cannot provide the efficiency that society needs for further development.

The great development of Yueshan County in recent years is inseparable from its unique administrative structure.

Because the Xinghan Society can take advantage of the government's power to reach the grassroots level and vigorously promote what it wants to develop.

This is the efficiency of the crossing, which represents a certain image.

Da Han Cheng divided Yueshan County for Feng Junhou to toss for many years, and in the end it did not disappoint.

But Pavilion Chang Zhang was a little disappointed at this time, because he heard the steward say:

"I've also heard that if it's not true, how can I guarantee it?"

"If you don't have real news, you say that you will listen to me and make me happy in vain, what is the reason?"

Pavilion Chief Zhang said dissatisfiedly.

When the steward heard this, he sneered and stopped mentioning this topic.

Because it's gossip, it's often the truth of the matter in the end, you know the ball!

This kind of thing, not to mention the government, even the Xinghan Association, it is impossible to admit it!

Fiction and reality, in the clouds and fog, are the ones that make people have nothing to say and can't get the handle.

Those who are not willing to sell after three days are basically hesitant, or they want to wait for the price of food to rise again.

Even if the government wants to make profits for the people under its rule and make political achievements for itself, but Xinghan will be able to endure it and give such people a batch of silkworm seeds?

I saw the steward waving his hand impatiently, driving away Zhang Tingchang as if he was going to drive Zhang Tingchang out, "Go, go, go!" No time to grind your teeth! ”

"What's the hurry? I'll say a word to my nephew again. ”

Zhang Tingchang pulled the door frame, unwilling to move, he looked at Si'er, and said seriously, "Si'er, this Liu steward often goes to Qiongdu on weekdays!" ”

"You can be regarded as having a relationship with him this time, and when you go to Qiongdu in the future, you usually have to contact your family if you have anything, just look for him."

Si'er looked at the steward, and then at Pavilion Chang Zhang, a little at a loss.

"The old horseman is endless, get out!"

The management directly pushed and shoved the people out.

Zhang Tingchang didn't care either, and left happily.

After coming out, he returned to the place where he unloaded the grain in his pavilion, and saw that the people in the pavilion were squatting around the grain pile to bask in the sun.

The head of the countryside doesn't have much knowledge, and when they get together, they basically talk about trivial things.

Which family planted a few acres of mulberry forest this year, and which one opened two acres of land at the foot of the mountain.

Even if someone comes home with a piece of meat, it's news.

It's rare for everyone to have leisure on weekdays, and the sun is just right, so it's in full swing.

At this time, a middle-aged man and a young man came side by side.

The middle-aged man's eyes were implied, he swept the group of people, and saw the leader at a glance.

I saw him arch his hand at Zhang Tingchang:

"Dare to ask Your Excellency, but you are the head of all people?"

"Don't dare, don't dare, the contemptible surname is Zhang, but he is the pavilion chief of Wuting in District B of Shili Township, and I have seen two nobles."

Zhang Tingchang didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly returned the salute.

The two people in front of them have the momentum of the superior on their bodies, and the entourage behind them are all sabers, and the standard is used in the army at a glance.

Just listening to the name of the place reported by Zhang Tingchang, you know that it is a new place after Feng Yongping settled Yueshan.

When the middle-aged man heard Pavilion Chang Zhang's words, a smile immediately appeared on his face, and he waved his hand:

"What nobles are not nobles, but they are just passing by, and they see that grain is being harvested here, so they come and have a look."

He looked at the grain behind everyone, and his face showed just the right amount of curiosity, "Where did all this food come from?" ”

Although he tried his best to make a pro-people attitude, he couldn't hide the compelling wealth and nobility on his body.

Pavilion Chief Zhang didn't dare to slack off, with a sincere smile on his face, scratched his head, and looked like a full hillbilly:

"That's right, we heard that the price of food was high, and we thought that we had some surplus food at home, so we scraped together some food to see if we could change it, and then added some clothes to the family."

"Right now, it's the time when the green and yellow are not available, and everyone else is thinking about borrowing grain, but everyone still has surplus food at home?"

The middle-aged man asked with some surprise.

"Elsewhere? Where else? ”

Hearing what the other party said, Zhang Tingchang became vigilant, "In the past few years, I haven't heard of a famine nearby......

As he spoke, he deliberately looked at the entourage behind the two.

That's right, it's a man in the ranks.

Zhang Tingchang, who had retired from the army, was very sure of this.

So what exactly are these two people coming from?

The middle-aged man smiled a little embarrassed, but the young man next to him relieved him:

"Don't blame Pavilion Chang, my clan uncle just came from Guanzhong, and I don't know the situation here in Yueshan, so I said that."

"Oh, I see."

Zhang Tingchang suddenly slapped his thigh, "How else can you say that it is a thief of Wei?" Thieves and thieves, how can they have the ability to let our people eat enough like a big man? ”

"I heard that over there, fifty percent of the land will be collected by the government, how can this make people live? Once you join the army, the whole family will be a soldier for generations. ”

"The men in the family died in the battle for the court in the front, but the wives and daughters in the rear were assigned by the government to others, can this be a human thing?"

Zhang Tingchang was under the command of Feng Junhou back then, but he had heard a lot about the Wei thief.

Some people still took refuge in the Wei thief army and told everyone about their own affairs.

Over the years, Zhang Tingchang may have forgotten a lot of the words he has learned, but this kind of thing can really be remembered for a lifetime.

"So the big man must destroy the thieves, so that everyone can have a good life......"

Over the years, everyone has lived a good life, and the more they dare not imagine the days of those people under the rule of Wei thieves.

How many things have you seen?

In their eyes, Zhang Tingchang followed Feng Junhou to the north and south, and he was a very knowledgeable person.

The people in the village can chew their tongues for a long time when they see others carrying meat home every year.

So even if these things have been told by Pavilion Chang Zhang a long time ago, but at this time, they still sound with relish.

No way, the sense of superiority is always compared.

What's more, he has only been out of a hard life for a few years.

It's just that the more everyone agrees with Zhang Tingchang's words, the more strange the middle-aged man's face becomes, and even a little embarrassed.

Young Langjun glanced at him, as if holding back a smile.

He seemed to be much more down-to-earth than the middle-aged man, and he actually squatted down without caring and talked to everyone:

"This fellow, at this time, you take out the food at home and sell it, there will be no shortage of food at home, right?"

"No...... There is no shortage, and there are a lot of them at home. ”

Si'er's adults subconsciously wanted to stand up, but when they saw that the other party was also squatting, they had to continue to squat in place with the other party, and their rough hands were swinging again and again.

"Everyone says that the government has done well in the past few years, so do you think something is wrong?"

Young Langjun asked with a smile.

As soon as these words came out, everyone suddenly showed panic and quietly did not dare to speak.

"Don't be nervous, in fact, we were sent by the county government, and this matter is a big deal for the county."

As he spoke, Young Lang Jun pointed to the grain:

"So the officials actually know everyone's intentions, so they sent us out this time to ask everyone, do you have any requirements?"

Hearing that the young Lang Jun admitted his identity, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

That's right, otherwise it would be uncomfortable to hide it.

The government sends people to the countryside to inspect farming, at least twice a year.

At least everyone has seen it from afar, and even the old farmers who have menstruation will be called to interrogate, everyone sees that this Lang Jun is young, and it will not be too big to come to the official position.

So I'm not too nervous.

There were old peasants in the crowd, and even the last time he had spoken to the people sent by the officials, he was bolder, and he immediately said tentatively:

"This Langjun, we have a lot of mountains and little land, but the officials have never let us grow more mulberry land, and we must grow food."

"Aren't all mulberry rice the same, I wonder if we can go back and talk to the officials of the government office, let us grow more mulberry fields in the coming year?"

The young man laughed and pointed at the old farmer:

"This fellow, are you deceiving me when I'm young and trying to harm me? How much grain should be planted in each pavilion and each village was determined at the beginning. ”

"As long as you don't encroach on farmland, and you plant mulberry trees everywhere else, it's fine, but you can't use the farmland that is regulated."

"Otherwise, where would we have so much food now?"

The old farmer showed a simple expression and smiled embarrassedly:

"Yes, yes, I was confused, which made Lang Jun smile."

Young Langjun chatted with everyone for a while before getting up to leave.

It was Pavilion Chief Zhang, looking at the backs of them leaving, with a sly smile on his face.

Can the people sent down by the county be accompanied by elite soldiers in the army?

Who are you coaxing?

After thinking about it carefully, I made sure that I didn't say anything out of bounds, and then I smiled proudly.

After the two officials led their entourage out of the crowd, they walked for a long time, and the middle-aged man suddenly asked:

"I've traveled all the way, and when I see that the people will call Feng, isn't he afraid of being jealous?"
