"The villain Zhang Quandan, knock on the master's house, knock on the general!"

Lao Zhangtou is just a craftsman, and the biggest person he sees on weekdays is just the manor steward.

Tang Qi conveyed orders and tasks to him, and they were all through Tang San.

At this time, when he saw Tang Qi speak, he was so frightened that he knelt on the ground with a "poof", kowtowed desperately, and trembled all over, and didn't dare to raise his head.

Looking like that, it was as if I had seen a bully rampant in the township.

Tang Qi glared at Tang San: "Didn't I say that I would treat their family well, that's how you treat them well?!" ”

"Huh?" Tang San was scolded inexplicably, very dazed.

Tang Qi was even more angry: "If you hadn't treated them harshly, how could he be so afraid of me!" ”

Tang San was very aggrieved: "Master Hou, he is just a craftsman, and it is normal to be in awe when he suddenly sees a big man like you and the general!" ”

Lao Zhangtou also replied cautiously: "The master has misunderstood, the steward is very good to the villain's family, the villain eats well and lives well, and there is no dissatisfaction......

This is also a generation gap, Tang Qi was born under the red flag, and he has no awe of feudal imperial power in his bones, even in the face of Liu Che, he just follows the local customs, and he will not feel afraid at all.

On the other hand, Zhang Quandan, as a native of the Han Dynasty, is the second lowly "craftsman" among the four people.

On weekdays, any official of the government can pinch him to death with his fingers.

What's more, now that he has become a farmer, life and death are decided by the master's words, according to the law of the Han Dynasty, a servant and craftsman like him who has sold his body, the master can kill at will without punishment according to his preferences.

Changing places, it is not difficult to understand Zhang Quandan's performance.

The fear of authority has been engraved in the marrow of this old man.

What's more, it was the great peasant order and the general of the dynasty?

"Okay, count me to blame you, get up!" Tang Qi also reacted quickly, knowing that he had made a fuss, "Old Zhangtou, tell me, what are the results of the recent experiment?" ”

Wei Qing also said kindly: "Don't be afraid, old man, you make an eight-ox plow for stability, which is a great thing for the imperial court, and when Your Majesty knows, he will reward you!" ”

"Yes, yes, Lord Xie's family and the general value it." Zhang Quandan pulled out a flattering smile, "It's such a ......"

Then there are cowardly people, once they talk about their professional field, they are all gushing.

Zhang Quandan was quite intimidated at first, but seeing that Tang Qi and Wei Qing were listening attentively, he gradually relaxed and began to get out of control.

Before he sold himself, he was originally the best craftsman in ten miles and eight towns, and there was no one within a radius of ten miles better than the farm tools he made.

It's a pity that he was targeted by the county officials for a while, and he was easily ruined, so he had to sell himself to the nobles to seek refuge.

Later, Zhuangzi was given to Tang Qi by Liu Che, and Zhuangnai began to make soybean oil in large quantities.

Zhang Quandan was quickly seen by Tang San because of his skillful techniques and exquisite skills in making stone grinding, and Tang San, who was eager to behave in front of the master's family, reported to Tang Qi.

That's why this one came about.

At the beginning, Tang Qi just exchanged the drawings of the Baniu plough on a whim, and gave Zhang Quandan to try it first.

I didn't expect this old guy to have good craftsmanship and understanding, and he quickly made a finished product that could go to the field!

This made Tang Qi really pay attention to it, and promised Lao Zhangtou's family a generous treatment as his own special craftsman.

The reason why Tang San was able to be regarded by Tang Qi as the second steward of the house was also because of the discovery of Zhang Quandan's talent.

Far from it.

In short, until the sun set, Zhang Quandan was still gushing about the magic of the eight-ox plow.

Wei Qing was very excited when he heard it, and Tang Qi, a person who knew everything about the plowing of the eight oxen, almost fell asleep.

Fortunately, Liu Che arrived in time and rescued him.

"Ministers (villains, etc.) see Your Majesty!"

"Get up!"

Liu Che broke in in a hurry, ignoring the guards who were kneeling on the ground and Tang San, who was so frightened that his face turned pale, he grabbed Tang Qi's arm: "Mr. Tang, what Wei Qing said is true?!" ”

"It's true." Tang Qi nodded, "There are finished products and test fields in the backyard, Your Majesty can see them with your own eyes." ”

"Don't look at it, of course I believe what the gentleman says!"

Liu Che sat down panting, poured a cup of tea, and looked like a torch: "Wei Qing's message is too simple, what is the specific situation of the eight ox plows, can Mr. elaborate?" ”

"Of course." Tang Qi said eloquently, "This eight-ox plow has great benefits and many defects. ”

"It takes eight oxen to pull it, and a field ploughed in a day is not up to 100 people. Moreover, the eight-ox plough has a complicated process, which is not something that ordinary people can make. ”

The defects are obvious and do not apply to the average homesteaders and small landowner families.

And the process is too complicated, which is not conducive to promotion.

Liu Che instantly understood what Tang Qi meant: "Mr. wants to sell this eight-ox plough to Jingzhao's family Haoqiang?" ”

In addition to the imperial court that can organize large-scale tuntian, they are the only ones who will regard this kind of agricultural tools that can greatly improve efficiency and production, but also require manpower and material resources, as treasures.

Tang Qi did not refute: "That's right. ”

Not to mention Jingzhao, as long as the news spreads, the entire Han family will flock to it!

Liu Che's face suddenly darkened: "Sir, do you know what the consequences of this move will be?" ”

Regardless of whether it is a family or a powerful family, the desire for land is always endless.

If they are allowed to buy eight-oxen plows in large quantities, and the land they can eat is more extensive, then the people's land enclosure behavior will be even more serious!

A large number of people will have their fields taken by force, and they and their families will become farmers and slaves!

"The land annexation of Dahan is already serious, is this move too inconsiderate?" Liu Che asked in a deep voice, "Could it be that for the sake of millions of dollars, you can ignore the suffering of the people of Limin!" ”

Wei Qing lowered his head and loaded wood.

Tang San and Zhang Quandan, the two little people, were even more frightened by the anger of the Son of Heaven and curled up on the ground trembling, their faces pale.

If it weren't for the low status, he might have to beg for mercy!

Tang Qi pursed his lips disdainfully.

Who are you pretending to be a big-tailed wolf, you guy who can use the family relatives to turn around, you really don't understand what I mean?

Who to scare with a black face!

"Eight oxen and ploughs are sold, and of course enclosure is inevitable." Tang Qi said boringly, "But if you want to say that the court has no way, Your Majesty, you don't take my brain seriously, right?" ”

"The family wants to farm, this can't be stopped, but where do they go and who will they use to farm, not to mention Your Majesty, you don't have the slightest idea?"

Tang Qi hooked the corners of his mouth: "Your Majesty, don't you think that my eight oxen ploughed out at the right time, and it can help you kill two birds with one stone, or even three eagles!" ”

Liu Che didn't speak, staring at Tang Qi's eyes.

In the middle of the night, the two laughed at the same time.

"Sir, sir, you really don't give me face." Liu Che pointed at Tang Qi and slapped his thigh with a smile, "It's really boring to get along with you, I can't even enjoy the fun of intimidation!" ”
