Liang Shitai's hammer village is quite large, and the number of households in the village is also large. Liang Shitai gave an order, and there was no need to build a camp tent, and all the accompanying soldiers stayed in Zhuang Min's house, and the Zhuang people happily pulled Yang Er's personal guards into their homes. The nearly 100 soldiers under Liang Shitai were originally the children of Iron Hammer Village, and they went back to their respective homes and gave the money to their parents, and they were not happy.

Hammer Village is as lively as a festival. Yang Er, Yuwen Chengdu, and Lai Hu'er all lived in Liang Shitai's mansion. The age difference between the three is not much, Chengdu and Laihu'er have been familiar with each other since childhood, and the relationship is naturally close, the three of them washed and changed clothes, cleaned up, and before it was dinner time, Yang Er asked Liang San Uncle to lead the way, and took Liang Shitai and Yuwen Chengdu to go to the field. Yang Er wants to see the growth of sweet potatoes and potatoes.

Soon what appeared in front of everyone's eyes was a large sweet potato field, which was packed together and full of greenery. There are still many men and women in the field, watering, fertilizing and weeding, a busy scene. It was no longer the small acre of crops that Yang Er had when he left, and now it had been connected into pieces. On one side are sweet potatoes, and on the other side are obviously potatoes, but the area where potatoes are grown is much smaller.

Yang Er stepped forward and rummaged through a handful of sweet potato vine seedlings, which were already very long. It seemed that the sweet potatoes in the soil were about to ripen and harvest, so he picked off the tip of the sweet potato vine and said to the third uncle Liang next to him and the villagers who followed: "Third uncle! The villagers can pick the tip of this vine to cook, and the taste is very good. A few Zhuang women can be arranged to pick the tips of the vines immediately, and the king of the evening table wants to taste it quickly! "In this era, there are few varieties of vegetables, only sunflowers, radish, lentils, courgettes, green onions, etc., and there is a lot of meat on my table. Now seeing this fresh sweet potato tip, Yang Er was immediately very happy. This is a green vegetable that can be picked in large quantities from the next generation! When Uncle Liang heard this, he immediately turned around and whispered to a middle-aged Zhuang Min, who turned around and went to make arrangements.

"So, lord, this sweet potato can be said to be a treasure all over the body!" Liang Shitai, who was behind him, also said happily at this time. Everyone around him laughed. Liang Shitai was particularly happy, he returned to the village this time to bring back refined salt, to solve the shortage of salt for the villagers, now there are this fresh vegetables, and the amount of picking is very large, their own villagers no longer worry about food and vegetables, even do not look at the sky to eat.

After inspecting the crop field and returning to the hall, Yang Er said to Liang Shitai and the third uncle: "Since you have enough seeds, it doesn't hurt to eat some of them." It's time for the folks to taste the sweet potatoes and potatoes. Wash the sweet potatoes and potatoes and put them in a steamer, and cook 300 catties each. Eggs do not have to be taboo, each family can cook their own food, but it is necessary to prepare enough eggs and raise them in large quantities as much as possible. Lao Liang! When we returned to Chang'an, there should be no less than 50 boiled eggs in each soldier's bag for the soldiers to use as dry food along the road. ”

"What's so difficult about this, anyway, the soldiers are all placed in the farmer's house, so let these farmer households prepare enough for the sergeant. What farmer doesn't have a few hundred eggs! Liang Shitai said happily.

"At night, let every household kill at least two roosters, and if there are many children, kill one more, so that everyone and the sergeants can taste the taste of this chicken." Third Uncle Liang hurriedly answered.

"Lord Wang! Even if I haven't tasted meat during the New Year! Now you can eat chicken openly, you are the reincarnation of the Bodhisattva in the sky! Little Lao'er, let the big guy kill the chicken. Uncle Liang was so excited that he was about to faint, and the prince's words meant that in the future, the people in the village could slaughter their own chickens, and they could open up their edible eggs, and the people's lives would be more secure.

"Third uncle, after I leave, we should mobilize the people to develop all the wasteland around the village and plant sweet potatoes extensively. Shitai, a number of water wheels can be built by the river to divert water for irrigation. Yang Er said to the uncle and nephew of the Liang family.

"Lord Wang, there is no shortage of labor in the village, and he is a good hand. There are a lot of barren slopes and beaches around, but they all belong to the government, how can they be invaded at will? Won't it lead to lawsuits? The third uncle asked in a low voice.

"Huh! Third uncle, don't worry, I'll leave you a piece of paper for me to write the official document of the Jin Palace, and you can first use this official document to go to the state and county officials for the record. If you have any doubts, let him go to Beijing to find this king, this king expects him not to make noise! Yang Er said lightly, thinking that the world is royal, see who has the courage to deny me Jin Wang Fuwen.

"So good! Please rest assured that after that, our village will also absorb scattered farmers in the mountains, expand the population, and make every effort to accumulate grain for the prince. After hearing this, Uncle Liang had no worries, stood up and arched his hand and said.

The excitement of dinner was something that Hammer Village had never seen before, and in addition to the food that had never been eaten, Liang Shitai and his guards brought back the salt, which also made the farmers extremely happy. People hold steaming sweet potatoes, dip them in a little salt, and don't even want to throw the skin together and eat it. The potatoes are also boiled and eaten. Yang Er asked a few Zhuang women to watch him put a few sweet potatoes and potatoes in the stove, but they didn't know why the prince wanted to burn the sweet potatoes, and his face was full of questions. Yang Er easily told them that this is the method of roasting sweet potatoes and baked potatoes, and they can usually throw a few in the stove when cooking. After a quarter of an hour, it can be baked and cooked, and it is sweet and delicious. The women suddenly realized that they left for home.

Yang Er is now tearing the chicken and eating it very fragrantly, this chicken does not need Yang Er to teach, there is no shortage of chickens in this era. Now Yang Er, Yuwen Chengdu and Lai Hu'er are eating the chicken roasted by Uncle Liang himself, and of course they use the new anti-salt. There was also a plate of fried sweet potatoes and vegetarian dishes on the table, and Yang Er and the others were very happy to eat it.

"Boss, I now know that you brought these things to the village! I've lost a lot in the past few years! I knew that I wouldn't go to the master to learn martial arts, and I would have been following you, and it would be interesting to pour these rare objects! "Yuwen Chengdu, a whole chicken can't be gagged.

"Come on! I've said that you are the reincarnation of a god, look at your body and bones, are you still a human? The bones are amazing, that is, they are born to practice martial arts, and it is a pity not to practice martial arts. If you want to eat chicken in the future, that's not yet. "Yang Er has a mouthful of meat, a mouthful of wine and a mouthful of food, but the taste of this wine is almost and it is not energetic.

Early the next morning, Yang Er summoned everyone to sit in front of the hall, and everyone gathered.

After thinking about it all night, Yang Er had an idea at this time and needed to discuss it with the big guy. I saw that everyone had arrived, including more than ten old people in the village.

Yang Er said to Liang Shitai: "Shitai, third uncle." Now the two crops have taken root and landed, when the planting area is expanded, the king wants to make this hammer village and the surrounding area into a food base for my Jin king's army, in addition to allowing the villagers to keep enough rations in the future, the output part of the output is handed over to my Jin Wangfu, and the Jin Wangfu can be exchanged for silver money as a subsidy for the villager. Anyone who becomes a military ration household is exempt from all taxes and conscription. The third uncle can mobilize the rich households of the big village around 30 miles, all of them have become the military households of my Jin Wangfu, and the lord of each village can send a son to enter my palace as an official, and a few neighboring villages have become a big li, and the third uncle is the chief of the big village. The land is contiguous and all crops are sweet potatoes and potatoes, except for some buckwheat and vegetables. I want this production to last 100,000 troops for half a year. Yang Er said slowly, stopped, and took a sip of tea. As the crowd listened, some nodded frequently, and some bowed their heads in contemplation.

Yuwen Chengdu said with a little uneasiness at this time: "Your Highness, this matter is very important, if you let the emperor know, it will be okay, Lao Tzu's is the son's." However, if the ministers of the court, especially those who let the crown prince, know, they will definitely say that His Royal Highness raises a private army and is independent of the imperial court. Isn't it a sin of treason? After Yuwen Chengdu said this, the Lai Hu'er also nodded frequently, and said that this kid's brain is okay, not only to make a gun stick, but also a little brain, it can be seen that he usually has the etiquette training of his father and ancestors, and he also knows that the court etiquette system cannot be transgressed. So he immediately got up and added: "Your Highness, the last general thinks that it is not possible now, but you can plant a large number of things in the village first, if the land registration is not enough, then let Lao Zhai come over, let him take the village into the mountain, choose a secluded place, and open the land to plant." If there is a lack of tenant farmers, it is even simpler, let Lao Zhai rob the road on the road, and all the homeless and hungry people passing by will be taken captive into the mountains, and the land will be distributed to teach them to farm. The garrison outside the mountain can only prevent leakage of information, and the delivery of grain can be handed over to the last general. The grain will be taken to Luzhou Jiechi Town for hoarding, and this method is the most secrecy and safe. As soon as Laihu'er said this, everyone nodded yes.

Yang Er also bowed his head in recognition after a while. It seems that some actions can only be realized after he becomes the master of this country, otherwise there are many constraints, after all, there are still hundreds of officials under the father and emperor, and they can't move as they please.

"Shi Tai, third uncle. Can you have a good village? Yang Er turned his head and asked.

"Lord Wang, the last general has a lot of friends on weekdays, there are 3 big villages around, and the owners of the village are all good friends with the last general. Originally, there was a mutual response when the mountain bandits attacked. Now it is not difficult to let these 3 villages do things for the prince. Just invite the three owners to come over and discuss the matter. Liang Shitai got up and replied.

"Good. Quickly send Zhuang Ding to Sanzhuang to invite the three owners here. After Yang Er finished speaking, Uncle Liang got up and went out to make arrangements.

Yang Er said to Liang Shitai again: "How much land and households do you have in this village? ”

"Lord Wang, my hammer village has 10,000 acres of land, nearly 1,000 households, and a population of more than 5,000 people. In addition, there are 200 tenant farmers from other places in the village, with a population of more than 500. Together, they total 1,200 households and a population of 5,500. With 2,200 young people, it is the largest household in this area, and even the Huayin County Order cannot be underestimated. Liang Shitai said.

"You instructed the tenant farmers to plant sweet potatoes and potatoes in the fields, and to keep enough of their own rations according to the population of the family, and to build a warehouse for unified storage of the excess, and not to sell them to the outside world, not to teach the cultivation method to the people outside the village, and not to let the people outside the village get them, these two things are very important. If it is transmitted to Nanchen or the Turks, it will be extremely unfavorable to my Great Sui, and it will be good to restrain the villagers. ”

Liang Shitai got up and arched his hand and said: "Don't worry, I have a hundred guards here, and now I have one man from each family, and I will inspect the rural land households in my village in different shifts. ”

"So good! The idea of General Laihu'er is also very good, and it can indeed save a lot of trouble. It's just that there are few inhabited mountains and valleys here? Yang Er was silent for a while and then asked.

"Lord Wang, 30 miles south from here is the boundary of Shaohua Mountain, there is a lot of land in the mountain, enough to cultivate, and the mountain is dangerous and there are many fierce beasts, and few people enter and exit. If two things are planted in this mountain, it is the most secret, and the mountain pass is choked, and the birds do not enter. Liang Shitai said unhurriedly.

"Yes, you can send someone to guide the way, this king will visit tomorrow and make a decision." Yang Er still thinks that he should go to see the Shaohua Mountain first, if the land of the 4 Zhuang Alliance is still insufficient, he can choose someone to develop the Shaohua Mountain Mountain, no matter what, the corn suitable for planting in the mountains can be moved to the mountains alone, and a large warehouse can be built in the valley to hoard 4 Zhuang grain, which has a lot of benefits in the long run.

"Lord Wang, there is no way to explore the vicinity of Shaohua Mountain. There was already a nest of ringing horses on that mountain, and the mountain had been king for a long time. Although the leader's ability is not high, there are nearly 800 minions, and the well water of the surrounding villages usually does not interfere with the river water, and there is nothing to do. Because of the treacherous mountain, the government had nothing to do with him, and he returned after encirclement and suppression twice. Liang Shitai's words were like a basin of cold water, and Yang Er, who was pouring it on his head, calmed down.
