The training of the pro-soldier team lasted for more than three months, Jia Ke stayed in the camp and did not return home, although Chuncao and Qiaolian often came to visit, but Jia Ke drove them back in order not to be special.

Now that the training of the pro-soldier team has finally been completed, the rest is the daily maintenance training, Jia Ke asked Liu Yu, the captain of the pro-soldier team, to lead the training every day, Liu Yu is loyal to Jia Ke, and his orders are meticulously executed, so that Jia Ke is very relieved.

And Jia Ke can also take a rest, after returning to the small courtyard after more than three months of absence, after being taken into the inner room by Chuncao and Qiaolian and others, it is like a world away, Jia Ke has a feeling of missing, that is, Chuncao and Qiaolian are jealous, and now they don't feel annoyed, but it is pleasant to listen to.

In the evening, Jia Ke ate a delicious meal specially made by Chuncao Niang, and then Jia Ke lay down in the bathtub with satisfaction, enjoying the first hot bath in more than three months. In the barracks, Jia Ke took a cold shower in the creek with the soldiers. That has a comfortable bath at home.

The next day, Jia Ke got up in the morning and began to practice Fang Tian's halberd painting after stopping for more than three months, and his absorption of Lu Bu's courage in these three months has made great progress, and it is easier to use Fang Tian's halberd than before.

After breakfast in the morning, Jia Ke rode a green-maned horse and slipped around the village a few times, and by the way, he practiced the halberd method on the horse a few times, but Jia Ke found that although the green-maned horse was also a good horse, he was a little weak when he danced the Fang Tian painting halberd on the horse, not to mention the slowing down speed, and he was not flexible when slowing down, which was still why he didn't wear that armor. It seems that in the future, I will still have to get a thousand-mile horse.

Jia Ke didn't practice martial arts after lunch, after all, he should take a break after so many days of hard work.

In the afternoon, I finally took a nap, but I was still disturbed, and Chuncao came in to report, saying that Lin Zhixiao asked to see him. Lin Zhixiao is still very steady, and he is afraid that there is something wrong with him at this time. Jia Ke let Lin Zhixiao in, and wailed why he couldn't let him rest. As soon as the matter of the pro-soldier team was over, Lin Zhixiao didn't know what was going on.

In the living room of the inner house, Jia Ke met with Lin Zhixiao.

As soon as Lin Zhixiao saw Jia Ke, he gave a thousand salutes and said, "The little one is saying goodbye to the uncle." ”

Jia Ke waved his hand and said, "Get up, if there is anything to say, I still have something." ”

Lin Zhixiao hurriedly said to Jia Ke: "Uncle, something happened, your Zhuangzi has a drought this year, I'm afraid it will be lost." ”

Jia Ke was a little confused when he heard this, and said: "My Zhuangzi has a drought, and the harvest will be cut off this year?" How do you know. ”

Lin Zhixiao replied to Jia Ke and said: "Uncle is a few days ago, the little maid who came to send the case passed on to the uncle on behalf of the second master. I wanted to return to my uncle a few days ago, but my uncle didn't disturb me in the barracks, so I dragged it off. It's not this morning, and the uncle can't be empty for practice, so I'm here to report now. ”

Jia Ke sat on it and thought about it, he was not a real gentleman and anointed beam, and he didn't know the suffering of the world. If the harvest is lost, it will starve to death. As a landlord, he also has responsibilities.

As soon as he thought of his Zhuangzi starving all over the wilderness, he couldn't sit still and immediately wanted to go and see it. But he has never been in contact with rural affairs in his two lives, and he needs a knowledgeable peer. looked at Lin Zhixiao, this person used to stay in the capital except for collecting rent, and he was probably not much better than him. In the end, I thought of Liu Hong, Liu Hong has been a steward in Xia Caozhuang for decades, and he must be very familiar with rural affairs, so it is better to ask him.

So Jia Ke asked Zhou Wang to find Liu Hong, saying that he had something to ask him.

In a quarter of an hour, Liu Hong came. After seeing Jia Ke Shili and asking An Wanbi, Liu Hong asked Jia Ke and said, "Uncle, I don't know what I want to do if I want a small service?" ”

Jia Ke was not polite to him, and went straight to the topic and said: "One of my Zhuangzi, there was a drought this year, I'm afraid I have to cut the harvest, I grew up in the house, I don't know about the affairs of the Zhuanghu, so I came to you to ask, what should I do to save the people." ”

Liu Hong is also an old steward, who has worked in Xiacaozhuang all his life, and has been through various disasters several times, and is no stranger to drought, so he calmly replied to Jia Ke and said: "The most important thing in the event of drought is to dig deep wells to solve the problem of human and animal draft." Then the grain was transported into the disaster area, and everyone still had a certain amount of grain in stock when the drought just occurred, and this was placed second. Then there is epidemic prevention, after the catastrophe there will be a great epidemic, and then the dead will have to be buried deeply, and at the same time the medicine will have to keep up. Another thing that must be noted is that because the drought-stricken areas are generally wide, more people must be sent to transport grain to the drought-stricken areas, otherwise the Zhuangzi of the uncle will be robbed by the victims in the disaster areas before they reach the uncle's Zhuangzi. ”

After Liu Hong said this, he comforted Jia Ke and said: "Uncle don't worry too much, the imperial court will preside over disaster relief whenever there is a disaster, and usually allocate food and relief to the disaster area, and after the disaster, measures such as exemption and deferred rent collection will be taken to restore people's livelihood." ”

Jia Ke was relieved at this time, but he was still ready to take a look, after all, it was his own Zhuangzi.

While they were discussing how much food to bring with them, Zhou Wanglai reported that Jia Zheng had sent someone to deliver the letter. Jia Ke hurriedly let people in, and saw that it was Jia Zheng's servant. The little guy came in and saw Jia Ke, knelt down to give Jia Ke a salute, and then sent Jia Zheng's letter.

Jia Ke asked Zhou Wang to arrange the messenger in the front yard, let him rest for the night, wait for him to write a reply, and go back tomorrow.

Jia Ke watched the little girl go down, opened the letter, and told Jia Ke that he already knew about the drought in his Zhuangzi, so he didn't have to worry about it, and he had asked Lai Da to send someone to send three hundred taels of silver and five hundred loads of grain. Zhuangzi also replied that the villagers had been settled, so that he could practice martial arts with peace of mind and not worry. and said that Aunt Zhou was also very good, so that he could rest assured at home.

After reading Jia Zheng's letter, Jia Ke was really relieved, put down the letter and told Lin Zhixiao and Liu Hong that the second master of Zhuangzi had been dealt with, and the grain and silver had been sent. And he let them go.

After dinner in the evening, Jia Ke took out Jia Zheng's letter and wanted to read it again so that he could reply to Jia Zheng, but when he looked at Jia Ke's brows, he frowned.

Jia Zheng wrote that the money and grain had been sent, and Zhuangzi also replied that the victims had been resettled. But in the past few days, Jiafu and Zhuangzi have had several calls, and Jiafu also sent all the food and gave him a reply, which is also too fast. This shows that Zhuangzi is not far from the capital, he is also in the suburbs of Beijing in Xiacaozhuang, and he has not heard Liu Hong say that the harvest in the village is not good, and Liu Hong also said that the drought-stricken area is generally very wide, and it is impossible that only he Zhuangrang has drought, and other areas in central Beijing are fine.

It seems that either Jiafu has a problem, or Zhuangzi has a problem. It is impossible for Jia Zheng in Jiafu to panic, that is, there is a problem with Zhuangzi, and if he can't get it right, he will collude with the housekeeper in Jiafu.

This is to see that he is young, come to pit him, when Zhuangzi is in the hands of Jia's mother, the wind and rain are smooth every year, and as soon as it reaches his hands, disasters occur. Not only did this year's ancestors not have to give, but they also got the silver and grain in the house for nothing. This matter cannot be concealed by a village manager no matter what, and the only person who can do this can be done in Jiafu is Lai Da.

Before and after this moment, you can get at least three thousand taels of silver, which is not a small amount at that time.

When I used to look at the Red Mansion, I said that Lai's family is also a pavilion and a small back garden, and I asked Jia's mother to see it, where did his money come from? It's all greedy.

Jia Ke didn't want to embarrass Lai, after all, Mama Lai was Jia's mother's confidant. But he put his hand on his head, I'm afraid it wasn't just greedy, it was related to Ben not taking himself seriously, and playing Jia Zheng in the palm of his hand.

Jia Ke is now financially tight (subsidizing a lot of food expenses for the pro-soldier team), and he thought that he could alleviate the rent if he came down, but he didn't expect that such a thing happened, and he would never give up.
