Chapter 163: Imagination
Everything in Jiyang City has been completed, and the business affairs of the library pavilion are basically familiar. After sending away Gui Zhi's mother and son, Yun Fan and Ziyun, Yang Qian was left to teach the domestic servants, Yun Shu and Yu Hong took the small ones who were trained by Gui's mother and returned to Baishu Village again.
This year's summer grain harvest in Qinghe County is good. In the first round of competition between Yunmao and Tian Meimiao, Yunmao narrowly won, and Tian Meimiao lost the management of 500 acres of land.
Although Tian Meimiao was a hanger before, but since Yun Shu clarified the material reward, he gave full play to his energy, but due to the desolation for many years, it was a little worse than Yun Mao, who pounced on the field all day. Tian Meimiao gritted her teeth and said that she will definitely come back next year!
Yun Mao thought that Tian Meimiao was a failure, but he didn't expect that the real person would not show up, and he would be extraordinary when he made a move!
Thinking that the master doesn't care, he shouts every day to do a good job of the field, bigger, stronger, and now the master fully supports, if he wins the right to manage the field, he will lose it immediately next time, wouldn't he become a braggart, no capable person? Still not laughed to death by Tian Meimiao?
Yes, although Yunmao narrowly won, he didn't dare to take it lightly in the future.
In terms of taxes, the amount of grain produced has indeed increased by 10% of the households, and Yunshu has also kept its promise to reduce the tax by 20%.
Grain production increased, taxes were reduced, and the tenants of the Yun family smiled from ear to ear.
For those who do not meet the rent reduction standard, they are even more like Tian Meimiao, who must work harder and enjoy the treatment of rent reduction. Otherwise, the villagers will not be embarrassed to raise their heads in two years, and they will really not be able to raise their heads - the same starting point, but the people are getting richer and richer!
Tian Meimiao and Yun Mao also went to the fields more conscientiously to give more in-depth guidance, and Li Dale followed behind to study.
Under the full supervision of Xin Tanzhi and the county magistrate Shan Cheng, the water conservancy project in Qinghe County has also reached the final stage.
Now that we have a material foundation, the reform of the military system must also be put on the agenda.
Since the rise of Zhenguo, the two countries have been fighting small wars. Zhao did not want to fight at the beginning, but he couldn't win the war in the end, coupled with the fact that the imperial court has been compromising and seeking peace, and the military spending is not strong, and after years of accumulation, the military strength is even weaker. The border army is not yet good, not to mention the local reserves.
Jiyang City is far away from the border areas, and the military reform that Shan Cheng wants to embark on is the training of the militia, which is used to replenish the source of troops when border affairs are tight or the supply of soldiers is insufficient.
In this military reform, there is a stipulation that those who are outstanding in it can be selected into the border army after passing the examination, and there is no need to wait for a special opportunity. It's not that people don't have the heart to protect the country, but going to the border means leaving their hometown and throwing their heads and spilling blood, and there has been almost no good news at the border over the years, and there is no commander who loves the soldiers, and no one is willing to go to the border to die. The daily training is also perfunctory, and no one really cares.
The water conservancy reform has been done very well, and the people above have come to inspect it, and they are very satisfied, and they have revealed in their words: In the coming year, the amount of grain produced will be used as proof, and if the military reform is still so good, it will be an ironclad thing to be reused in the assessment in the coming year! Maybe you can become a prefect!
Shan Cheng listened even more enthusiastically! Guangtan's career is beckoning to him!
The Yun family's harvest has increased greatly, and Shan Cheng, the county magistrate who comes and goes to the Yun house, has also heard of it.
The great increase in grain production is also his political achievement. If the Yun family's farming method can be promoted in the whole county of Qinghe County, in time for this field reform and water conservancy reform, then the political achievements and future are tied together, so how can Shan Cheng not be excited?
However, Yun Shu is also his junior brother, not only offering advice to help him show his face above, but also asking the master to help him with all his strength in water conservancy matters. You can't get benefits again and again, and let Yunshu generously dedicate the method of farming, there is no benefit, right? If you do this with a shy face, I'm afraid that the master won't be able to stand it.
So as the county lord, where can he make the cloud tree profitable, and then be willing to sacrifice the method of growing grain?
Shan Cheng, who was at the top of his career, meditated the beauty couch, and even the bewitching concubine who came up to offer his hospitality felt very annoying, and when he looked at it more, he felt that the more he looked at it, the uglier he became. How did you think that such a posture was extremely glamorous? Really, alas, a hundred and eight thousand miles away!
Brushing away the beautiful concubine's tender hand pressing on his temple, he motioned for the beauty to beat her legs, so that the blood-colored plump lips were far away from him.
Shan Cheng continued to be distracted in front of the window: the appearance of the two senior brothers is better than the other! The eldest brother is handsome and heroic, the second senior brother is beautiful and bright, and his wonderful eyes are even more unforgettable; The talent is deeper than the other, what he has learned and what he has planned, he is no longer able to catch up, and his future is limitless.
As far as I know, the senior brother majored in martial arts and the art of war, and the second senior brother majored in medicine and martial arts, and also practiced the art of war. I also specially asked people to inquire that in this Qinghe County, there is no one with an average yield per mu higher than the Yun family.
I stood up for the old age, took the Jinshi exam with my old nose, and became a parent official, and I have suppressed many scholars, but I was compared to the two young brothers in Qinghe County! It's really more human than human, and it's infuriating. Fortunately, these two little brothers acted in a proper manner and were not arrogant, otherwise......
However, since Senior Brother Yunshu was born in a scholarly family, why didn't he continue the path of the imperial examination, but took medicine as his main direction? Is it really because of his father that he wants to stay away from his career?
Alas, think far away again...... Shan Cheng shook his head, picked up the teacup, and took a sip of tea.
How can we make Yunshu open up the method of growing food in a way that everyone is happy about, so as to help his career again?
The beauty rubbed her head and beat her legs again, and she was busy for a long time, but the old man didn't even look at her, glanced at her, and was disgusted. The beauty has never been treated like this since she entered the master's back house!
Especially for the sake of water conservancy, the master has been running outside for more than half a month! If it was in the past, he would have torn his clothes into a mess and would be dizzy on the couch.
The more she thought about it, the more wrong it became, and while beating her legs, she began to sob faintly.
Although Shan Cheng dislikes the beauty today and is not beautiful enough, the beauty is very good at crying, slender and delicate, and the sobbing sound of the hook will save Shan Cheng from his contemplation.
Shan Cheng stretched out a hand and picked up the beauty's delicate chin. The beauty raised her eyes, her eyes were filled with affection, and there were small teardrops stuck to her eyelashes, which were pitifully tight. With just one glance, Shan Cheng's heart was hot, and his throat moved, "What's wrong?" What are you crying about? ”
The beauty complained: "Master, is there someone outside? Disgusted with the slave family's serving? ”
Someone else? Shan Cheng playfully tasted this sentence, the smile on his face changed the taste, and he licked his dry lips.
"Are you going to make a fuss like that?"
"The slave family doesn't dare. The master is the support of the slave family, and the slave family is afraid that the master will have a new person, so he will not want the slave family. ”
Saying that, tears fell on Shan Cheng's hand, and the beauty's white hand hurriedly went to help Shan Cheng wipe it off, wiping and wiping, and the hand somehow entered Shan Cheng's palm.
"Master, please take pity on the slave family and don't ignore the slave family."
Shan Cheng's hand was attached to the beauty's chest, and the silky touch like water made Shan Cheng angry, and with a force, the beauty fell on him.
Just the right amount of pressure made Shan Cheng close his eyes slightly, rub hard, tear the beauty's clothes, and said in a thick voice: "Why don't you want you?" ”
After some clouds and rain, Shan Cheng dragged his shoes, wrapped his clothes indiscriminately, and went to the bath room to bathe, and the beauty wanted to join him, but was refused.
The beauty is more and more sure that the old man has someone outside.
Shan Cheng didn't dare to think about the appearance of the person he had in his mind at the top just now. It's insane! I am also a sage, and I have read books for so many years! Although he can't be said to be an irreproachable gentleman, he has never had such thoughts! Be sure to wash yourself away from this foul thought in your head!
Xin Tanzhi of military reform hopes that Yu Hong will try his hand, and he will guide him to the method of military training, and if the test is successful, Yu Hong will be able to go out of the army and officially go to the army for training.
Although Shan Cheng is also an apprentice, after all, he became a monk halfway, and he also hung up the position of a county master, and the matter of water conservancy starts from the benefit of the people, and it is also the point; Yunshu is an excellent seedling, but she is a girl, no matter how good she is taught, it is not very useful. The only one he has high hopes for is Yu Hong.
The matter of water conservancy is Yunshu took the initiative to get together, and the military reform is not going well at present, if Na Shan really takes himself as a master, with the experience of water conservancy, he will come to ask for advice; If you don't come, forget it.
Over the years, he has also figured it out: if the person in charge of power has no intention, even if the person without power has the heart, it is useless! It is better to follow the trend than to know that you can't do it.
What will be Yu Hong's future path? It also depends on the times and the situation.
Shan Cheng finally came to the door, followed by the Zhang Jing brothers, carrying large and small gift boxes.
Xin Tanzhi raised his eyebrows and exhaled: This is a living example of going to the Three Treasures Hall without doing anything! This apprentice is not familiar with it.
Seek the quickest way to achieve your goals in everything, and do not want to spend time cultivating feelings. This method works quickly a lot of the time, but ...... Forget it, everyone has their own ideas, and he can't get close to his master after all.
Shan Cheng didn't know how the master felt at this time, so he greeted the master diligently, offered gifts, and said a bunch of words to thank the master for helping him manage the water conservancy business.
Xin Tanzhi smiled and accepted them one by one, and finally said that he had nothing to say, and Shan Chengcai mentioned the matter of military training. Xin Tanzhi is famous in the border army and even in the DPRK and China for his military training, so militia training is naturally not a problem.
Nowadays, the people are not interested in military training in their leisure time, and the training effect cannot be produced, and the sound of martial cheers in the training ground next door at this time is very majestic.
"The master worked very hard for the water conservancy matter, and I wanted the master to cultivate well, but the apprentice really had no experience in this military training, and after two months of training, it was still very unsatisfactory, so I had to come to the master for advice."
