Outside Pingyang City, Zao Yi slowly led the horse, with some attendants and guards, along the field. After riding a horse for a long time, both thighs are the same as if they are not their own, and stepping on the ground when they get off the horse can be regarded as a recovery.

On the whole, the Binh Duong Canal has been completely repaired, and some improvements have been made on the original foundation, such as the use of a lot of waterwheels, both hydraulic and manpower, which has alleviated a lot of water intake problems, so that the farmland on both sides of the Binh Duong Canal has basically been freed from the threat of drought.

The reform of the agricultural tax is a relatively big step forward for Fei Qian, and the main person in charge is Zaoyi, after all, he has always been responsible for agricultural affairs in this area.

To be honest, the Han Dynasty is not bad, the preferential treatment policy for farmers, from top to bottom is after all, admired, even during the Han Wu Emperor's war against the Xiongnu, several times the treasury dried up, did not raise taxes indiscriminately, during the Han Ling Emperor, that is, selling officials and lords was criticized, but it is not said that he cleverly set up a name to increase taxes to extort the common people.

Therefore, this time, Fei Qian said that he would be exempted from oral endowment and change of service, which was naturally a big thing for the people of Pingtou. In order to ensure that such good governance can be implemented and will not be profited by the officials at the grassroots level, Zao Yi has been running back and forth around the periphery for a period of time.

The people of Pingtou are illiterate, and the so-called decrees can only be passed on by word of mouth, and when they reach a village concentration point, they will convene people, preach in a unified manner, and then answer questions.

On the whole, there are problems, but at present it seems that it is okay, exempted from oral endowments and change of service, although it is a slight increase in the field endowment, but these old farmers still have a profit, so they are also very happy and willing to accept. For the officials at the grassroots level, after all, Pingyang has only been under construction for a short time, and many officials have not been in office for a long time, and some have to retire from the army because of injuries.

In fact, the main reason is that during this period of time, Fei Qian fought several battles with Xianbei one after another, capturing many Xianbei people, and these people became the best substitute for those farmers who worked roughly. Of course, some important projects will still be completed by recruiting Han people, but since they are recruited, they are paid, not free service.

Many things change with the changes of the times, during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the country was not too big, whether it was a change of service or military service, even from within the country to the national border, it was not too far away, and now the territory of the Han Dynasty is vast, such a change of military service system is naturally very problematic, so Fei Qian ordered the abolition, and it did not receive much help.

But Fei Qian still didn't dare to touch the field system easily.

Even if Fei Qian clearly knows that the land annexation thing is a time bomb in feudal society, it will explode once when it develops to a certain state, but it still can't be touched.

The reason why it was possible in later generations was a specific practice in a specific period, and the productive forces had also developed to a certain level, and the closed small-scale peasant economy had been almost shattered under the semi-feudal and semi-colonial conditions, so it was integrated again and adopted a new model......

And now, whoever moves the private ownership of the field is the enemy of the world!

Even this so-called enemy is not only other princes, but also their own people.

Fighting on the battlefield, the soldiers of the horse leather shroud, what are they born and die for? Is it for Feiqian to be able to fight local tyrants and divide the land, so that everyone in the world has the world's fields? Hehe, what are you kidding, but so that you can become a new local tyrant! If Fei Qian deprives these people of their power source, how many people will be full of fearless proletarian spirit to follow Fei Qian to carry out revolution?

What's more, after these people become the new local tyrants, land annexation is still an unstoppable historical torrent.

It's just that Feiqian's step-by-step land endowment system can more or less inhibit the snowballing development and spread of land annexation to a certain extent.

Whether this step-by-step tax system can be implemented smoothly depends on the autumn harvest this year......

As he walked, he suddenly stopped and greeted a farmer who was busy in the field: "Uncle! Uncle! ”

The farmer, who was weeding barefoot between the fields, slowly straightened his waist when he heard the sound, and when he saw Ke Zaoyi and his party, he hurriedly said: "I don't dare to be called so by the nobleman, I don't know what is the matter with the nobleman...... Ah, isn't this a jujube from Cao, ah, yes, the little old man gave a salute to the jujube from Cao! ”

After speaking, the old man in the field dropped his hoe, clasped his hands into fists, and shook deeply towards the jujube.

"Uncle, please get up!" Zao Yu hurriedly said, "...... So-and-so is just thirsty and wants to beg for a bowl of water to drink, if the old man is so polite, so-and-so doesn't dare to chatter......"

"Hey...... old farmer was a little flustered when he heard this, for fear that the jujube would turn around and leave like this, so he hurriedly said, "...... Jujube from Cao Mo is strange, Mo is strange! It's all little old people who don't know how to speak! Little old man, let's pour water! ”

Although the jujube is young, but because he used to preside over the farming mulberry near Pingyang, he soaked in the field almost every day, plus the experimental fields of the jujube in the south of the city, the growth is better than that of ordinary farmers, so the farmers near Pingyang do not understand the so-called fertilization, ploughing, spacing, etc., basically think that the jujube is the god of agriculture sent down by God, and they can't wait to enshrine the jujube on their own land, so that their own Zhuanghe can also be as vigorous as the experimental field......

The old farmer rubbed Tao Wan again and again, and then carefully poured a bowl of water and handed it to Zaoyi.

Zao Yi didn't dislike it, took Tao Wan, drank two sips, and then pointed to the field and said: "Look at the growth of this Zhuang He, I guess I can collect four or five stones in the autumn!" ”

The old farmer grinned, laughed, and said, "Entrusted dates from Cao Jiyan!" Last year, I received close to four stones, and this year it looks like it should be pretty good......."

Zao Yi chatted a few more words, mainly to understand the degree of mastery of the old farmer in terms of agricultural taxes, and then nodded, said goodbye to the old farmer, and went to Pingyang.

The old farmer looked at the back of Zaoyi leaving, and then held Tao Wan in his hand, and suddenly a spirit was excited, and he hurriedly took Tao Wan into his arms, looked around, for fear that others would see it, and the farm work would not be busy, so he rushed home.

This Tao Wan is a jujube used from Cao!

Why do you have to find a good place at home and offer it, maybe you can also share some of the divine power of jujube Congcao, so that your own land Zhuanghe can grow better......

"What? Raising pigs? Zao only raised his eyebrows, said to Fei Qian, and said a little incredible.

Fei Qian looked at Zao Yi and said with a smile: "That's right, Zijing, this matter must also be handled quickly...... Not only pigs, but after a while, Bai Shiqiang will also send some sheep, so they will find a place in the south of Pingyang City...... By the way, how is it in the White Wave Valley? ”

"White Wave Valley?" Zao only thought about it for a moment, nodded and said, "...... If it is used to raise livestock, it is a good place, just build some fences at the entrances and exits...... "Baibo Valley is really good, there are mountain springs, there are water and grass, and then seal the exit, so you don't have to worry about the livestock getting lost, and you don't have to worry about the surrounding beasts, it is indeed a good place."

"But, Marquis, why do you raise pigs?" Zao Yu said, "...... Pigs are easy to be fishy, and they are sick to eat, so they are cheap meat...... So much to keep this time...... This ......"

It is true that China has been raising pigs for a long time, and it seems that the earliest pig species was only found in Eurasia. In the pre-Qin period of antiquity, there were different distinctions for pigs, and specific words were used to refer to boars and sows, and the manure produced by pigs was also valued by farmers as an important source of fertilizer for farmers.

Nomads don't like to raise pigs, because even after domestication, pigs still have some sense of territory, so they are not like cattle and sheep, naturally suitable for population migration, but for farming peoples are different, with the development of settled agriculture, pig breeding has gradually been promoted to an important position.

It's just that because the scholars don't like it, the scale of pig breeding in the Han Dynasty is still not large. The Han Dynasty scholars mainly disliked pigs because pigs were prone to fishy ......

If it weren't for Fei Qian's careful understanding, maybe he really didn't know the mystery.

Fishy, in the Han Dynasty, it does not mean that the smell is fishy, although the pork does have a strong taste, but the smell of mutton in the Han Dynasty can accept boiled mutton without any spices, so what is the taste of pork heavier?

"Zhou Li, Tianguan Tsukasa" has "...... Fishy, shame can't be eaten and ......", this is the meaning of the fishy face in the Han Dynasty, that is, fishy, not that the taste of the meat is not good, but according to the literal meaning, it means that there are stars in the meat......

That is, pork tapeworms.

This most common swine parasitic disease did not receive enough attention in the Han Dynasty, and I didn't even know why it was produced, but I just knew that if there was such a "fishy" on the meat, it could not be eaten.

And "臊", simply put, means that the meat stinks and cannot be eaten.

As a scholar in the Han Dynasty, it was common to eat barbecue or something, and when the barbecue was cooked, the pork tapeworms were not easy to be killed, so these scholars often got parasitic diseases, and in the Han Dynasty, where there was no effective anthelmintic medicine, this disease was often fatal......

Although Fei Qian did not study medicine, he had seen some pig houses or some feedlots on movies and television, and one of the key points was that the environment was damp and dirty, and the feces of animals and humans infected each other.

圂, in the Chinese character means the place where pigs are raised, and it also has the meaning of toilets, which means that in the early stage of the development of the pig breeding industry, pigs were raised directly in the toilet......

"That's right, Su Zijing bothered more...... Fei Qian said, "Fishy, it's the plague of pigs, shame, it's the fault of survival, it's not the fault of the family...... Moreover, the domestic pig is easy to grow and raise, multiplying, if it is properly raised, it can be continuously supplied with blood food, if this method is written and passed on to future generations, it is no less than the merit of Shennong......"

Zao Yi arched his hand and said: "How dare you compare it with Shennong...... Since the prince has decided, a certain obedience is ......"

Fei Qian laughed and said: "Zijing don't be too humble, Pingyang is close to the left, and it is said that there are also those who set up the Rusheng Temple......

When he said this, Fei Qian was mostly using it for fun, not for anything else. But the speaker was unintentional, and the listener was intentional, Zao You's heart couldn't help jumping, and he hurriedly bowed down and said, "...... Please forgive me, I don't know about it......"

"Huh?" Fei Qian reacted at this time, groaned for a while, and did not directly say anything to let Zao Yi flatten his body, but stood up, and then walked in front of Zao Yi, helped Zao Yi up with his own hands, and then held Zao Yi's arm and said, "Zijing, it was a mistake, and a certain should not use this matter to make fun of Zijing...... Attacking Xianbei and recovering Yinshan is a momentary achievement, although it is glorious at the moment, but a hundred years later, or ashes, and the work of Zijing, it is beneficial to agriculture and mulberry, and there are people in the world who can benefit from it for a hundred years and thousands of years! Although this kind of work is not great, but the world is blessed, even if you receive some incense from the ancestral hall, what is wrong? ”

"Yes...... But," said Zaoyu, "...... Nor is this the work of any one person! As far as the matter of taking Zhuang He is concerned, this deep ploughing, top dressing, soil turning, seedling cultivation, and even seed selection, although the prince said that there were many cases, and he fought in the south and the north, he also asked many times, and also solved a puzzle...... If it weren't for the guidance of the prince, how could it be done? And there is no position of prince in this ancestral hall...... How can you enjoy it with a cheeky face! This is absolutely unacceptable! ”

Fei Qian smiled and patted Zao You's shoulder and said, "Haha, it's not you, do I still have to bear the reputation of farming, fattening, pigs and sheep?" When others mention a certain coming, they will say that the cattle and sheep general is not successful? In this matter, I still want to thank Zijing for bearing the notoriety for me...... Hahaha, that's it, Hugh has to mention it again......"

"How is this notoriety......" Zao Yi sighed, knowing that Fei Qian also had some truth in what he said, so he stopped continuing the topic.

The scholars of the Han Dynasty have come to the present, how many problems of the Wei and Jin dynasties have also been revealed, what is just a little habit of talking about high theories, maybe the problem is not very big, alchemy and taking medicine have also become a kind of elegance, maybe it is just poisoning their own bodies, how to say it is their own business, but there are some remarks and thoughts, but they are harming the entire society.

Chen Fan's sweeping the world seems to have become a motto for some people. It's like someone often says that he wants to pay attention to farming, but in fact, when it's really his turn to do farm work, he will put on a face of "how can I do such a cheap thing......

“…… In addition, this year's autumn harvest is the first collection of Tianfu's restructuring......" Fei Qian put away the smile and said, "...... Zijing, there is one thing that I will explain to you as well...... The number of cultivated fields near Pingyang, etc., Zijing is the most clear, if someone is greedy and concealed during the autumn endowment, he will go up and down...... A certain punishment will not be slack! "Fei Qian is almost certain that among these officials in the middle and lower classes, it cannot be said that they are all bad people, but there must be a few rats who are glamorous on the surface and dirty on the inside.

During this period of time, the southern and northern wars have not been properly rectified, and it is just taking this opportunity to implement a new agricultural and mulberry tax system, and secondly, to rectify the rule of officials......
