Chapter 20: Untapped Treasures

Fang Xu didn't perform a first-hand refusal, but accepted the holy decree very meekly, and if he was rewarded, he would find a chance to eliminate his mother's hostility.

Of course, it would be better to find an opportunity to figure out where the mother's sudden hostility came from.

Mrs. Wu Anbo wrung her handkerchief, squeezing out a reluctant smile on her face, but her heart was overturned.

On that day, Fang Xu had already refused to dismiss the official, this general was really strong, and he actually gave such a big reward.

It seems that the general's energy is still very large.

Mrs. Wu Anbo didn't know that her father-in-law was in it and made a big effort, and Wu Anbo also had a headache, he was busy with government affairs before, and he didn't have time to take care of the children.

When he found that the child was crooked, there was no way to break it over, what he could do was to arrange the road behind, there was no chance before, and now that the opportunity comes, he can't miss it.

"Xu'er, congratulations." Mrs. Wu Anbo almost gritted her teeth and squeezed out a sentence, and her smile was reluctant.

The general looked sideways at Mrs. Wu Anbo, doubts flashed in his eyes, Madame smiled too reluctantly, could it be that Fang Xu hid his true face because of Madame?

This made the general even more incomprehensible, it was his mother. It seems that the water in Wu'anbo Mansion is very deep, so you have to be careful.

"Thank you, Mother." Fang Xu sent a bright smile, but his movements were very sloppy, and he was not a good bird at first glance.

"Okay, the injuries on your body haven't healed yet, go back to the yard early to rest, and don't run outside for the next two days."

Wu Anbo's eyes swept over Fang Xu's body, and he found no new injuries, he was very satisfied.

"Whoa." Fang Xu received the order, but he didn't leave in time, but accompanied Mrs. Wu Anbo to say a few words, and then left.

On the way back, neither Fang Xu nor the general spoke, although the relationship between the two was not as cold as before, nor was it as harmonious as a friend.

Unconsciously, there was a little embarrassment wafting in the air.

Fang Xu touched and touched his nose, as a salesperson, he was most afraid of embarrassment when getting along with others, which would affect the customer's sense of experience, and he had to find a way to solve this problem.

So Fang Xu almost habitually began to talk about the topic, and asked: "General, I heard that the food and grass of the army have not been solved yet, have you thought of a good way?" ”

"Well, when the household department is still recuperating at home, I decided to ask the emperor to check the household department first, and then find a way to ask for grain and grass." The general said truthfully.

"Do you want a piece of grain and grass, as for such a big bend? Or is it that there is a grudge between the Hubu Shangshu and the Dingguo Mansion? Deliberately stuck you guys. Fang Xu asked analytically.

"Tobe Shangshu's wife and brother served in the army three years ago, and was beheaded by my father for violating military orders, which should be regarded as a vendetta." The general said lightly.

beheaded other people's wives and brothers, and said that there was a grudge, Fang Xu was quite speechless, not that he had a grudge, that was a real grudge.

It is estimated that the opponent's march is to mix up military merits, and then improve all the way, and then return to Yanjing to seek an advanced qualification.

As a result, the way to advance was cut off, and the small life was lost, and the people did not break out on the spot, and it was already very polite not to do anything when the army was fighting.

No, I have already moved my hands and feet, otherwise the border gate will not be interrupted for six months, and it is estimated that I saw that the victory of the war was in sight, so I raised the mind of doing my hands and feet.

No wonder it's so hard to get food and grass for the army, there's a reason for that.

"Plant a grain in the spring, and harvest 10,000 loads of grain in the autumn." Fang Xu read a sentence seemingly casually.

The general snorted and waited for the following, wanting to know what Fang Xu wanted to say, but Fang Xu didn't say anything, and this thing played a trick of wanting to capture and indulge again.

The general glanced at Fang Xu, if he didn't say it, he didn't say it, and he didn't continue to ask, which made Fang Xu very depressed, you should ask a question, if you ask, I will say, if you don't ask me what to say.

"Does the young master have any thoughts on the matter of grain and grass?" Jing Yan squinted her narrow eyes and asked, but she was very interested.

"Well, that's an immature idea." Fang Xu cleared his throat and attracted the attention of the general, then continued:

"The border passes are vast and sparsely populated, and now there is no war, so it is completely possible for the soldiers to reclaim wasteland to grow grain and vegetables after training, so that when the autumn harvest comes, there is no need to look at people's faces for grain and grass."

The general and the four big maidens fell into contemplation together, opening up the wasteland to grow grain, this idea is very novel, there is no precedent for the army of Yan State, and there is no precedent for other countries.

The grain and grass in the army have always been provided by the imperial court, which is also a means for the imperial court to control the army.

As the saying goes, if there is no grain and grass in the court, whether the army still listens to the emperor is not ordinary.

There are only Li Jiajun and Zhao Jiajun in the army, in fact, the biggest reason is that a large part of these troops are supported by the Li family and the Zhao family, and they usually listen to the orders of the Li family and the Zhao family.

The reason why the emperor is uneasy is because the object of those soldiers' allegiance is not him.

If you grow your own grain openly, I'm afraid that the emperor will be even more uneasy, but if you don't grow grain, the gap over there will be too big.

General Li felt a contradiction in his heart.

Jing Yan didn't think so deeply, she was not a general after all, although she was black-bellied, she was not all-encompassing.

So he quietly said: "The border pass is full of grass and trees, and it is extremely difficult to open up the wasteland, I am afraid that the wasteland has not yet been opened, and the army has lost its strength from hunger." ”

"If the grass and trees are prosperous, then set fire to the wasteland, burn the wild grass, and then plow it with a plow, and rake the grass roots several times, it shouldn't be difficult."

Fang Xu said the ancient cultivation methods that he could think of, but he didn't mention the matter of large-scale combined machine farming, of course, even if he said it, no one would believe it.

"Plough deeply? What's that? Jingyan asked.

Fang Xu stopped and stared sideways at Jing Yan, wouldn't there not even be a plow in this era, so how backward did he come to an era?

Think about the boiled food, only salt-seasoned dishes, not to mention, there is really such a possibility.

Fang Xu really wanted to see the life of the ordinary people in this era from the memory of the original owner, and then he sadly found that there was nothing at all.

The original owner never paid attention to the lives of civilians, thinking that they were pariahs and did not deserve his attention, of course, if there was a beautiful daughter, then it was another matter, very typical scum.

Fang Xu stepped forward, Jing Yan followed closely, looking like he would never give up without asking, the general did not stop when he saw this scene, but followed quietly.

After getting along for a period of time, the four big girls found that Fang Xu was strong in his mouth and had never moved his hands and feet.

Coupled with the analysis of the previous few people, Fang Xu's fear was a little lighter, but it gave Jing Yan the courage to ask after him.

Fang Xu organized the language, compared the appearance of the plow, Jing Yan said that he had never seen such farm tools, Fang Xu rolled his eyes, can he say that he came to an undeveloped treasure land?

In this era, if you can't live like a human being, then you are really stupid and can't complain about the organization.
