Chapter 61: Self-righteousness
Chapter 61: Self-righteousness
Dongfang Shuo has worked in Fugui County for a few years, and the county order can be regarded as completely cultivated, and he is in an orderly manner.
When Yun Lang felt that the soil under his feet was starting to soften, he went to the 60,000 acres of farmland at the foot of Lishan Mountain.
The last time I passed here, it was still barren, and it was only a little more than a month, and it became a neat farmland.
Yun Lang pinched a handful of soil and was very satisfied, the land here was originally cooked land, and after decades of abandonment, the fertility of the land kept up.
"The land was burned twice, watered once, plowed twice, and the roots of the trees and weeds were cleaned up.
I asked the old farmers, this is a good land, as long as the water in the artesian canal can be supplied, it is 60,000 acres of high-quality fields.
Yunhou, even the Empress Dowager has given you some face, if you draw the land on the Weishui side...... Hey, hey, just by diverting water to wash the saline, it can make you disgraced. “
"The Queen Mother is not giving me face, she is giving face to Your Majesty, if the Queen Mother and the Young Mansion Supervisor really give Your Majesty a piece of saline-alkali land, it will really not give Your Majesty face, and the Queen Mother will not do this."
Yun Lang stood up, looked at the endless fields with his hands behind his back and said with some emotion: "There are not many changes we can make, cultivate according to the agricultural time, harvest according to the agricultural time, only God knows what kind of crops can grow in the field."
What we need to do is to make extensive use of new farming techniques, a large number of new agricultural tools, and rational allocation of manpower, so as to intensively cultivate more land with the least number of people.
With these 60,000 acres of land, I plan to plant crops that grow twice a year, sow wheat as soon as possible, and then plant millet and Chinese cabbage as soon as possible in the summer. ”
Dongfang Shuo was a little disappointed, frowned and said, "Why don't you plant the new crops in the Yun Clan's farm?" ”
Yun Lang shook his head and said: "The first crop is still safe, Your Majesty doesn't expect our first crop to bring him too much joy, as long as it is in order, it is a victory."
Take your time, don't be in a hurry, in the future, a large area of farmland will still be in order, and a small area of farmland will start to grow rice and all kinds of new crops.
I have heard that there is a kind of rice in South Vietnam that can be harvested three times a year, and if the land is fertile enough, it is possible to grow four rice.
The geography and climate of Nanyue are very different from ours, where it is hot all year round, and rice can be harvested four times there, and it is our great victory to be able to double harvest in Yunmengze. ”
"Rice four ripe?" Dongfang Shuo felt incredible.
Yun Lang sighed and said: "The most enviable thing is that the people there grow rice, as long as they sow the seeds, they will no longer manage it, and when the rice is ripe, they will take a knife to cut it, and the rice that has been cut off will immediately take root and sprout, and then grow rice......
Dongfang Shuo felt that this was very unbelievable, but Yun Lang said it, so he had to keep his mouth shut, and still felt that Yun Lang was talking nonsense.
"The trees there are full of fruit, and if a man is thirsty or hungry, he can pick a bunch of plantains and pick some of the fruit to fill his stomach.
There, no one will starve to death, but will only be eaten by wild beasts, beaten to death by poisonous snakes, tormented to death by disease, or dyed of old age......"
"If this is really the case there, Your Majesty should take South Vietnam." Dongfang Shuo's words did not have any scruples in them, and seemed to think that as long as it was a good thing, the Great Han Kingdom should be held in his arms.
"Lubode is doing this, I just don't know where His Majesty will expand the border!"
Dongfang Shuo was a little puzzled and said: "The whole world is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's minister!" This world is the land of my Han Dynasty, but some places are too far away and it is not easy for them to become kings, so they are allowed to wander outside the power of my Han Dynasty. ”
I have to say that these words of Dongfang Shuo are really uplifting, especially in the Liu Che period, the soldiers have just completed the myth of invincibility, and the Huns are afraid to move in Longcheng.
Now saying this, no one thinks there is anything wrong, Yun Lang thought for a while, at this time, Rome was still in the republican period of the city-states in the era of the House of Elders, Spartacus had not yet revolted, and there were large estates everywhere that used slave labor on a large scale, and slaves were called "talking tools".
The aristocracy was still in the era of lead wine cups and flasks, the sewers of Rome were full of aborted babies, it was an era when venereal diseases were rampant, everyone pursued the love of men and women like Teddy, and it was also an age of real entertainment to death.
When the Roman aristocracy was tired of the life of the wine pond and meat forest, in the drowsy afternoon, in order to stimulate the numbing nerves of the nobles, groups of strong slaves were selected, let them fight lions, fight crocodiles, and even form powerful military formations with each other, fighting each other in huge colosseums.
It is only at this time that the nobles who eat fat will become excited again, and the noblewomen who use lead powder as makeup will be excited to the point of incontinence......
In comparison, the Han Dynasty is much more reserved, and the Empress Dowager Dou asked Yuan Gusheng to fight with the wild boar with a weapon, which was recorded by the historian, and also made the Empress Dowager Dou lose the most noble word of benevolence in the nickname.
Such a thing was placed in the Roman Republic, and even the lowest nobles refused to raise their eyelids.
Yun Lang thought about it for a moment and then stopped thinking about it, until there was no suitable means of transportation to come out, it was just an idea to dominate the world.
"Lingnan is too far away, even if the grain is not expensive, after it is transported to Chang'an, it is a sky-high price.
Therefore, the benefit of capturing Lingnan to the Han is limited, and His Majesty considers more political factors than real interests.
If we could take the good seed from there and plant it in Guanzhong...... The result is too terrible, Your Majesty can place the border pass of the Great Han in the North Sea. ”
When Yun Lang gradually integrates into the Han collective, whether he is a native Han or not, some unprovoked pride will also arise.
Many times, the glory of the Great Han is like sunshine, whether you want it or not, he will shine on everyone.
Feeling the glory of the nation, this is a very high-level behavior, and it is the third need after being fed and clothed.
Yun Lang never allowed the farmer to go bare-bottomed in the fields, and the wild people who came out of the mountains seemed to think that their skin was the best work clothes, and their big rough feet stepped on the dirt, so they would not feel cold as long as they worked hard.
It's a strange idea.
"I remember giving them the money to make their clothes, and I gave it to you." Yun Lang looked at Dongfang Shuo puzzled.
Dongfang Shuo looked at the wild people working in the fields and frowned: "I have not embezzled, every copper coin is used for clothing."
What can I do if they don't wear them, the men go to the ground during the day, the women go down to the ground at night, and no one wears clothes, I scolded those old women who don't wear clothes just now, and they don't care. ”
A bare-bottomed child hurriedly ran past Yun Lang, looking very busy, and as the child's figure looked over, he found that the child was loading a basket with horse manure left by the spring horse.
"What about accumulating fertilizer, I learned it from your Yun family, and it has become a habit in this part of Fugui County."
Yun Lang turned his head, tried not to look at those naked people, and said to Dongfang Shuo: "This habit is not good, we want the output of grain, and we also want people's skin, if these people become rich people with no skin, then the consequences will be terrible." ”
In the past, the palace slaves in Shanglin Yuan did not have the habit of wearing clothes, and since the women of the Yun family wrapped themselves tightly, no matter how poor the people in Shanglin Yuan were, they refused to be naked.
Now, the wild people are coming, and if such unscrupulous men and women continue without distinction, it will be the retreat of people's intellectual education.
Clothes are used to cover shame, and most people think so.
Clothes are used for warmth, so the wild people thought.
Yunlang actually likes the life of no shame and shame, but it should definitely not be like this.
This is the life of the real destitute in the Great Han Kingdom.
"I'll allocate another money for clothing, and if I see them working in the fields like this next time, I'll ask you for corruption."
Dongfang Shuo reluctantly agreed.
Such a scene made Yun Lang very uncomfortable, and he didn't want to stay longer, so he got on the horse and went to Fugui Town with Liu Er.
Dongfang Shuomu sent Yun Lang away, and shouted at the people in the field, and the farmers who were shivering from the cold wind immediately found their clothes from the dirt ditch next to them and quickly put them on......
"Hmph, I know you can't stand it! You are so rich, if you give a little more money for clothing, you will die, and it will hurt a certain family. ”
Dongfang Shuo muttered to himself, and then continued to patrol the field with his hands behind his back.
A scene on the field made Yun Lang's mood very bad, and when he came to the medical hall, he looked at the four huge "Royal Medical Halls" at the door of the medical hall, and his mood was even worse.
There was a long queue in front of the medical hall, and it seemed that the sick people near Chang'an had come here.
The four egg-headed military doctors were already familiar with the scene in front of them, they diagnosed the disease, prescribed medicine, and then called the next one, and followed Su Zhi from the surrendered city to Chang'an's Qiang nursing women skillfully talked to those women in Chang'an dialect, which may also be part of the consultation, and many women went to a small door next to them to line up after talking to the Qiang nursing women.
There were no carriages in these crowds, nor were there any richly dressed nobles.
When Yun Lang walked into the medical hall, he found that the spacious courtyard in the past was separated by a high wall.
A caregiver was guarding the door, dozing off boredly, but Yun Lang wanted to go in, but was stopped by the caretaker.
"Master Hou, you should go to the left."
"The male left and the female right, the distinction is clear."
Yun Lang muttered, and followed the stone path into the pavilion on the left, where there were only a few people, Su Zhi sat behind a platform, laughing and laughing with a white-haired old man.
The old man handed Su Zhi a heavy bag of things, which was casually thrown into a wooden box by Su Zhi, making a muffled sound of metal colliding.
Then I heard Su Zhi smile and say to the old man: "Zhang Weng, your body is weak, you need to make up for it, the ginseng in the Royal Medical Hall is the best tonic, it was steamed and dried six times by our famous doctor in Xuanji City, and then it became a tonic, and the weak old man Liu took it four times, and then he threw away his cane, and walked like a fly......
