Chapter 54: The Divine Plow

For the new plough built by Fang Yiai, the farmers either questioned or scoffed.

But when the Quyuan plough was really made, the farmers who shaved from the ground inexplicably had expectations, hoping that the new plough could really be as Fang Yiai said.

The blacksmith family worked day and night, and slowly, the peasants straightened their necks and began to look forward to it......

The hammer family worked several shifts, and the people did not stop, which lasted two days and two nights, and the world's first curved plow finally came true.

In the past two days, Fang Wenquan also stayed in the blacksmith shop, and when the Quyuan plow was assembled, he was resolute and carried the plow directly to the ground.

Knowing that the new plough was completed today, he, the chief designer, was notified early and rushed over, and he had to command the assembly or something.

Cheng Chumo and Changsun Chong will naturally not be lacking, they have always been looking forward to the new plow, eager to see what the new plow is like.

During these two days, they went to the blacksmith many times alone.

"A new plow is out!"

As long as they are not ploughing, they all put down their work and come over, looking forward to this new plow.

Along the way, there were more and more farmers behind Fang Wen's body, and they became a long tail.

Outside the farm, next to a field, the whole village is surrounded by young and old, and the best are looking forward to it......

Unloaded the straight plow on the ox and pressed the new curved plow, Fang Wenquan nervously held the plow handle, snap! The bullwhip snapped, and the scalper strode forward with his head down.

After taking a few steps, it was obvious that the ox was not as strained as before, and it was much more brisk, and before it knew it, it quickly ploughed a groove.

The farmers were shocked, how could the cultivated land be so easy!

A group of people followed the plow forward, looking at the plow handle, hoping to try it themselves.

Soon, the plow reached the ground, Fang Wenquan lifted the plow, and easily turned the corner, one person was enough to control, and it was not as troublesome as before.

"Appeal ......"

Fang Wenquan stopped the ox, sanded the plow, and couldn't put it down for a while, his old eyes gradually became cloudy, and his voice was a little choked, "This new plow is indeed much faster, our village is saved this year!" ”

Seeing the speed of the new plow, someone noticed that under his feet, compared with the plow marks of the old plough next to him, it was obvious that the soil was much deeper, and the excited voice was trilling.

"Not only is it fast, but it also plows deeper than before!"

Looking at this effect, Fang Wenquan laughed with tears, but it was so brilliant.

Several farmers touched the new plow, as if they were touching a rare treasure, such a farming weapon, in the eyes of the farmers is a rare treasure.

"Erlang, it's really a god, he actually created this kind of divine plow!"

"This year there is salvation! The young master saved us! ”

"A living bodhisattva who saves suffering!"

Crash!

All the farmers knelt down at once.

The Tang Dynasty does not kneel and worship, only when it is worshiping the sky, and the farmers do this, and regard the love of the house as a god.

"Oops! Uncle Wen Quan, what are you doing, hurry up! ”

This sudden move made Fang Yiai helpless, stunned for a few seconds, and hurriedly stepped forward to support Fang Wenquan, he was the steward of the village and had great prestige, and the farmers listened to him.

On the way back to the village.

Fang Yiai obviously felt that the eyes of the farmers looking at him had become a little different.

In the past, it was only superficial respect, all for the sake of the Fang family's face, and respect for his identity, but now he really respects him from the bottom of his bones.

……

Cheng Chumo and Changsun Chong, after the results came out, hurried to their own Zhuangzi.

I thought in my heart that I had to pull the steward over to see the effect of the new plow, so as to promote the new plough on the village, hoping that I would not miss this year's spring ploughing.

It's not that they don't want to prepare early.

They trusted Fang Yiai, and swore to run back, but the steward of Zhuang didn't believe it at all, and he looked like he was detached, and he kept perfunctory to them.

Now there is proof, see what they say!

As for Fangjiazhuang......

After returning home, the blacksmith shop made all efforts to build a new plow, and the land of the hammer family was claimed by the farmers, and several neighboring families helped to plough it, so that the hammer made a new plough with all his might.

With the experience of the first plow, the building speed has increased a lot, and more than a dozen plows are made in a row.

……

Liangyi Palace.

Li Shimin convened a group of ministers to discuss spring ploughing, and the atmosphere was a little silent.

"Since spring plowing this year, it has been rainy for days, and the fields are muddy and cannot be cultivated.

Spring ploughing is the top priority of the imperial court in a year.

It is related to the stability of the whole world, and determines whether the taxes are sufficient during the autumn harvest to fill the treasury.

In order to show the importance of the imperial court to spring ploughing, he even practiced it, and took a group of princes, civil and military officials, to work in the fields together, saying that he was good at showmanship, and experienced the hardships of the people, at least it was an example.

Moreover, February was originally chosen as an auspicious day to hold a crown ceremony for the crown prince Li Chengqian, but it was because of spring ploughing that Li Shimin changed it to October.

After Li Shimin's words were finished, the officials sighed for a while, revealing bitterness.

"Your Majesty, this is the will of heaven, and it is beyond the control of manpower, but fortunately, the sky has begun to clear recently, and you should hurry up and plow the land. The imperial court also needs to prepare in advance. ”

Li Shimin was also silent, and he also knew that there was no better way.

Spring ploughing is the case every year, hurried, tired and tired to catch up, this year not only spring ploughing is a little late, but also encountered rainy weather, I am afraid that how to catch up can not catch up.

"Is the treasury still full?"

Dai Guan, the head of the household department, was just about to agree, but was interrupted by Li Shimin's domineering, "Dai Aiqing, no matter what, buy old grain on a large scale in case there will be a food shortage in winter." ”

Manpower will eventually be poor!

This year's autumn harvest is destined to reduce production.

All the court can do is to prepare in advance, so that it will have the ability to save people when the time comes, in case the land is full of hunger at that time, the people are not able to make a living, and there will be any more trouble.

Dai Xuan wanted to say: "Now the treasury is empty? ”。

This matter is related to the safety of the world, His Majesty has already given a death order, what else can he say, he has to accept the order with a bitter face, "No! The minister must do his best. ”

At this moment, Cheng Yanjin rushed in recklessly, shouting: "Your Majesty, good news, great news!" ”

"Zhijie, what's the exclamation?"

Li Shimin understood Cheng Biting Jin, and did not blame him, and directly asked the reason.

Among the civil officials, many of them were very disdainful of his loud, vulgar and reckless behavior.

But he didn't show it, Cheng Biting Jin is an old bastard, shameless! Talking to him, I'm afraid it's endless, maybe there will be a big fight, it's commonplace.

"Your Majesty, but you are worried about spring ploughing?"

Cheng Yanjin hurriedly swept around, everyone in the hall had bitter gourd faces, grinned, did not answer directly, and asked rhetorically.
