"Plant a grain of millet in the spring, and harvest 10,000 seeds in the autumn. There is no idle land in the four seas, and the farmers are still starving to death. On the afternoon of hoeing day, sweat drops into the soil. Who knows that Chinese food is hard work. ”

Professor Huang Lian, a professor of county studies in Lingshan County, Qinzhou, not only taught in the school, but also brought the students to the county school field, so that they knew that food was not easy to come by, and let Li Sanjian and others know the hardships of the world.

The so-called school field is the field purchased by the imperial court, or the court will be the official to discount, resist, and extinguish the land property, and call people to increase the rent and fight for the tenant, so as to achieve the purpose of education.

Of course, in addition to government grants and donations, there are also private contributions to fund county or state schools.

Most of the people who funded the construction of the county school were local officials, wealthy people, big surnames, scholars, etc., of course, their purposes were different, and there were those who were famous and those who were profitable.

Of course, Li Sanjian understands the hardships of life, isn't that what the Qiongtai family is? Li Sanjian's maternal grandfather, uncle and other households risked their lives to pick up real pearls in order to make a living, but they exchanged their lives for pearls, and only exchanged some grain, wine, salt and other things that barely made ends meet.

But no matter what dynasty, at any time, there are always rich and poor in this world, the rich spend money like dirt, the poor are extremely luxurious, and the poor are surrounded by walls, working hard for their livelihood, and some even take risks.

Chen Keer's father Chen Wei is a rich man, Li Sanjian doesn't know how Chen Wei got rich, but Li Sanjian knows that Chen Wei is a spendthrift, which can be seen just by raising so many courtesans and maikos at home.

Of course, Li Sanjian didn't hate Chen Wei very much, but he was grateful to Chen Wei. Chen Wei ordered his daughter to send a lot of property to Li Sanjian.

However, although Li Sanjian was grateful to Chen Wei, and although Li Sanjian really needed money and materials to get by, the property sent by Chen Keer was still rejected by Li Sanjian.

Although Li Sanjian is not such a pedantic person who does not eat the food that comes to him, Li Sanjian is not willing to owe favors to others, nor is he willing to accept this gift for no reason.

The twenty gold leaves given by the big businessman Chen Yide are a heavy burden for Li Sanjian, at that time, Chen Yide gave a book, and Li Sanjian accepted it, but who would have expected that there were twenty gold leaves in the book, that is, twenty taels of gold, which owed Chen Yide a favor to Li Sanjian.

Li Sanjian was forced by life to use these gold leaves, and it is said that Li Sanjian is not the kind of person who would rather starve to death and put the money in front of him, such as Spring and Autumn Boyi and Shuqi, for the so-called big festival, did not eat Zhou Su, and was starved to death on Shouyang Mountain.

Li Sanjian is by no means this kind of person, it is a big deal that he will have a chance in the future, and after he has property in the future, he will return these gold leaves to Chen Yide, Li Sanjian said secretly in his heart.

"Professor Huang." Li Sanjian suddenly pointed to the tenants who were working in the fields and asked, "They have worked for a year, do they have any surplus food?" ”

Li Sanjian suddenly asked this question, which suddenly made Huang Jian not know how to answer for a while...

This question is too complicated, involving the imperial court, involving the government, involving all aspects, and maybe it can also involve the taboo of the imperial court, Huang Lian simply doesn't know how to answer.

The peasant households of the Song Dynasty are mainly divided into five classes, according to whether they occupy the land, they can be divided into landed peasant households and landless peasant households, and according to the amount of land occupied, they can be divided into rich peasant households, yeoman peasants, semi-yeoman peasants, etc., and the landless peasant households are tenants or customers.

Song Zhi's customers account for about 40% of the total number of households, plus wealthy farmers, self-cultivated farmers, and self-cultivated farmers, accounting for more than 80% of the population.

In other words, more than eighty percent of the Song people were farmers.

Peasant households, which account for more than 80 percent of the population, occupy only 3 to 40 percent of the farmland, and the rest of the land is in the hands of the royal family, eunuchs, temples, or powerful people.

The royal family, eunuchs, temples, or powerful people were privileged, and they did not have to pay taxes at all or pay a small amount of taxes, which meant that the peasant households who owned three to four percent of the land had to bear most of the land in the Song Dynasty.

In addition, in addition to bearing the land endowment, the peasant households also have to bear the burden of exorbitant taxes such as transfer and transformation, the endowment of Dingkou, the miscellaneous endowment, and the payment of concursion and purchase, as well as all kinds of forced labor, which is a heavy burden.

Huang Lian understands this, but how can Huang Lian tell Li Sanjian in detail? I can't finish talking about this for a few days and nights.

"The good year is better, there should be some surplus food, and in the bad harvest year, they can only make ends meet. . . After a long time, Huang replied vaguely.

"Even... What the? Is it difficult for farmers to make ends meet? Li Sanjian then asked.

"You..." Huang Jian really wanted to press Li Sanjian to the ground and beat him up, such a thing, why do you ask so much? Huang Lian said secretly in his heart.

Huang Jian never expected that he would take them out to let them experience the hard-won food, but he didn't expect Li Sanjian to break the casserole like this and ask in the end...

"In a good year, a year-old plough is only enough for the public, and the people can only eat for a few months, and in the year of famine, the people may pick the fruit of the oak tree or eat the roots of vegetables to live, are you satisfied?" In the end, Huang Lian said to Li Sanjian hatefully.

Li Sanjian was silent when he heard this, and didn't ask any more, Li Sanjian knew the hardships of the people, but what could Li Sanjian do?

Li Sanjian himself doesn't know what his fate will be in the future, if the imperial examination is hopeless, maybe he will be like this...

。。。。。。。。

"Oh, you're stupid." Chen Keer really wanted to kick Li Sanjian, a "lewd thief" and a stupid pig, to the ground, and then step on one foot and ravage him fiercely.

Li Sanjian held a pair of bows and arrows, and asked Chen Ke'er stupidly: "Isn't that so?" Can't you out? ”

Although Li Sanjian did not accept the gifts from Chen Yu and Chen Keer, it can be seen that Qin Bo, a man in Tsing Yi, is a "martial arts master", so he begged Qin Bo for guidance on Shankui's martial arts.

Chen Keer hated Li Sanjian as an "adulterer" at first, but under Li Sanjian's explanation, he also knew that Xiaodou Sprouts was a poor person, and Li Sanjian lived in the same room with Xiao Dou Sprouts in order to take care of Xiao Dou Sprouts, and he was not a thief.

The most important thing is that Chen Keer can't stand Li Sanjian's rhetoric, plus Chen Keer is playful, so he agreed to let Qin Bo instruct Shankui martial arts, while Qin Bo instructed Shankui martial arts, Chen Keer was idle and bored, and he also proudly "taught" Li Sanjian some martial arts skills.

Chen Keer taught martial arts skills, first starting with bows and arrows, and the literati of the Song Dynasty basically had books in one hand and bows and arrows in the other, so that they seemed to be both civil and military.

Although the imperial court was very strict with the organs of mass killing such as bows and crossbows, spears, and strong armor, it was not so strict with simple and powerful bows and arrows, and basically turned a blind eye, as evidenced by various "bow and arrow societies" among the people. And with Chen Wei's ability, there is no problem with some rudimentary bows and arrows.

The bow and arrow brought by Chen Keer was not so much a bow and arrow as a thing to play with, and the shooting distance was only four or five steps, and it was estimated that even a rabbit could not be killed, let alone a person.

But even so, Li Sanjian still couldn't play, and his head was dizzy from being tossed by bows and arrows.

"You shoot, you shoot, this girl wants to see how you shoot today?" Chen Ke'er couldn't cry or laugh when she saw Li Sanjian lifting his bow and preparing to shoot arrows, so he crossed his waist and said.

"Shoot and shoot." Li Sanjian said angrily.

If you haven't eaten pork, haven't you ever seen a pig run? Li Sanjian thought unconvinced.

So Li Sanjian moved forward with his left foot and behind his right foot, turned sideways slightly, held the bow arm with his left hand, put the feather arrow on the bowstring, clasped the bowstring with his right hand, and pulled the inferior bow for a full moon, and raised his left hand slightly, ready to launch into the distance.

The posture is still decent, but...

There was a bang, and the bowstring made a soft sound, and the bowstring quickly bounced to the bowarm, but no feathered arrows flew out in front...

"Ouch... I grass! Li Sanjian let out a miserable scream, Li Sanjian did not tighten the feather arrow, the tail groove of the arrow was detached from the bowstring, and the tail of the arrow poked directly into Li Sanjian's face, scraping a faint blood mark on Li Sanjian's "pretty face".

"Hahahaha." Seeing this, Chen Ke'er immediately smiled and bent over, bent down and laughed breathlessly.

"What are you laughing at? Why don't you come? Li Sanjian rubbed his aching face and said stupidly.

"I'll come, I'll come, look at it, stupid." Chen Ke'er took the bow and arrow with a smile, bent the bow and arrow, and shot an arrow quickly, and the feather arrow accurately hit an arrow target three steps away.

"How? What is this girl's ability? Chen Keer looked at Li Sanjian proudly and asked with a smile.

"Hmph, not well." Li Sanjian said angrily: "My son went to study, and I will not accompany him!" ”

"In the midst of strategizing, the decisive victory is thousands of miles away!" Li Sanjian held his hands behind his back, took figure-eight steps, and said as he walked: "There is a golden house in the book, and there is Yan Ruyu in the book." ”

"Phew, nerd." Chen Keer looked at Li Sanjian's back and snorted.

"Hey, nerd." Chen Keer then shouted to Li Sanjian: "I'm going back, you... You... You... ”

"What am I? What does the hero command? Li Sanjian asked in surprise.

"You are not allowed to do little bean sprouts... Yes? Chen Keer said.

"I... You... Now it's Li Sanjian's turn to stammer: "I... You're simply ... Who are you and I? If this matter is mentioned again in the future, you and I will immediately cut off our robes and never see each other again. ”

"You... Absolute righteousness is absolute righteousness, who is rare? Chen Keer said angrily.

"Little lady, please go back, don't send it slowly." Li Sanjian is also unforgiving.

Chen Wei's Chenjiazhuang is not far from Lingshan County, and it is only a few miles away, so Chen Keer came to Li Sanjian to play when he was fine.

"Hmph... Chen Ke'er snorted and wanted to turn around and leave.

"Nerd, look at the move!" Chen Ke'er was really unwilling then, and suddenly turned around and waved his hand.

In an instant, the heavens and the earth changed color, and an ice dragon roared out, and pounced on Li Sanjian with ice ling, and the ice dragon opened its huge blue mouth, wanting to swallow Li Sanjian into its belly.

"Ahh Li Sanjian let out a miserable scream and sat on the ground in fright.

With a "bang", the ice dragon hit Li Sanjian's face, and the ice dragon shattered into countless broken ice, and cold water poured Li Sanjian on his head and face.

"Gurgle... Chen Ke'er saw Li Sanjian's embarrassed appearance, and immediately laughed.
