A few early yellow warblers compete for the warm trees facing the sun, a pair of new swallows fly around and are busy building nests in the mud, the wildflowers in the distance are dazzling, and the spring grass in front of them has just passed the horseshoe.

Zhang Bin rode on a tall horse, looking at the farmland hidden among the red flowers and green trees, and there was no joy in his heart.

As far as the eye can see, there is fertile land everywhere, but not much of it really belongs to the common people, the imperial relatives of the Ming Dynasty, the princes and nobles, as well as the pretentious eunuchs and Donglin parties in the court, who has ever thought that without land, how can the common people live.

All day long, he only knows how to fight for power and profit, indulge his squires and lackeys to annex land everywhere, and keep saying that he is for the country and the people, bullshit.

They don't understand the simplest truth, when the common people at the bottom and the garrison families can't survive, who produces food for them, who weaves cloth and clothes for them, who charges for them, and who guards the frontier for them.

Unable to live, they have no choice but to rebel.

These people also don't want to think about what good it is to force the people to oppose them, and how many tragedies will happen when the country is destroyed!

Thinking of this, Zhang Bin couldn't help but feel indignant.

He secretly swore that one day, when he was in power, he would sweep away these garbage full of benevolence, righteousness and morality, regardless of the lives of the people, and make a bright future!

Seeing that the county magistrate who was still talking and laughing in the city just now suddenly became silent, Zhao Mu, who was accompanied by the horse, hurriedly waved his hand to the back, signaling the guards and officials who were driving the carriage to follow them not to make a loud noise.

The originally lively group of people suddenly lost their voices, and Xie Zhengyang, who was taking a few people to open the way in front, glanced back, then coughed and signaled Zhao Xing to stop laughing.

Zhang Bin was not wearing official uniforms, and the others were also dressed in civilian clothes, and the destination of the group was Dongmen Mountain in the east of the county seat.

This Dongmen Mountain is indeed a mountain, but it is also a place name, covering a radius of several miles outside the east gate of the county seat.

It is precisely because there are many barren mountains in Dongmen Mountain and it is close to the county seat that Zhang Bin chose it as a trial base for potatoes and sweet potatoes.

The two carriages behind were loaded with a cart of potatoes and a cart of sweet potatoes, which Zhang Bin had asked his father to buy from Yuegang.

Zhang Chengde didn't know what his precious son wanted potatoes and sweet potatoes for, so he only bought him ten bamboo baskets, and each of them was only a thousand catties.

Originally, Zhang Bin wanted to promote potatoes and sweet potatoes in Binh Duong from the beginning, but after the things were shipped, he immediately found that something was wrong.

Because the potatoes and sweet potatoes shipped are too small, the potatoes are only the size of eggs, and the sweet potatoes are only three fingers thick, which is obviously an improper planting method.

This was similar to the first time he planted it blindly in his previous life, and later, the orphanage invited an experienced farmer uncle to guide him several times, and the potatoes and sweet potatoes he grew reached normal size.

Such a size, it is estimated that the harvest of one acre of land is about 500 catties at most, if this kind of appearance begins to be promoted in the whole Binh Duong, it will not make much sense, because 500 catties is equivalent to a little more than three stones, and the yield has not increased significantly.

Therefore, instead of asking his father to continue to buy potatoes and sweet potatoes, he planned to try to plant them according to the experience of his previous life, record the whole process in detail, write a guide book, and then send it along with the book and the real thing to promote it.

In this way, although the season is delayed, it is more beneficial to the promotion of potatoes and sweet potatoes.

First of all, it can make people really see things, if there is no real thing for people to see, just blowing a mu can produce thousands of catties, even if you are a county order, it is estimated that few people believe it.

Then, you can also ensure that there are no problems in the planting process, if you just send potatoes and sweet potatoes down, briefly talk about the planting method, and the planting is estimated to be similar to the one you bought now.

Finally, there is another point, even Zhang Bin himself did not expect that the "Potato and Sweet Potato Planting Minutes" he wrote would bring him unexpected benefits.

Of course, this is a later story, so I won't skip it here.

The group walked forward for less than a quarter of an hour, and in the distance they could already see a bungalow looming in the green cedar and green willows, and Dongmen Mountain Village was about to arrive.

The people who came were Wu Shiqi, the master who rushed over yesterday to arrange related matters, and a big fat young man in his twenties.

The two came to Zhang Bin, Wu Shiqi still bowed respectfully, but the fat guy knelt directly on the ground and shouted: "The villain Zhao Yan visits the county commander." ”

Zhang Bin didn't expect him to make such a big salute, there are clear regulations on kneeling at this time, but that is only a rule between officials, as for whether ordinary people should kneel when they see officials, it depends on when, if it is above the public court, then it is natural to kneel, as for outside, it is not necessarily.

When ordinary people meet officials outside the yamen, if they give face, they bow their heads and bow down, and there is nothing abnormal about them, and if they don't give face, they should not know you, and you have nothing to say to him.

Zhang Bin knew that this Zhao Yan had given enough face, so he hurriedly turned over and dismounted, stepped forward to hold Zhao Yan's arm and said cordially: "You don't have to make such a big gift, get up, get up." ”

This is not very real on the horse, and when he got closer, Zhang Bin suddenly felt that this Zhao Yan seemed a little familiar, he thought about it, and couldn't help but look back, Zhao Mu was already standing behind him with a smile.

He only reacted at this moment, this fat guy looks very much like Zhao Mu, no wonder he looks a little familiar.

Zhao Mu saw that the county magistrate looked at him in surprise, and hurriedly coughed dryly, and explained: "My lord, this Zhao Yan is the Lizheng here, and it happens to be a distant cousin of mine. ”

Zhao Yan originally wanted to pretend that he was not familiar with Zhao Mu, but at this moment, he saw that Zhao Mu had honestly confessed, so he had to awkwardly bow his hand to Zhao Mu and say, "I've seen uncle." ”

Zhang Bin didn't care much about this, in the face of the big problem of land annexation, he had no choice now, and he could only try to find a way to keep the common people fed and clothed.

The group continued along the dirt road and soon came to Dongmen Mountain Village.

As soon as he entered the village, Zhao Yan led the group to the largest courtyard in the village, but Zhang Bin raised his hand and said, "Wait a minute, have you contacted the farmers who tried planting?" ”

Zhao Yan hurriedly nodded and said, "The county magistrate, the villain has been notified." ”

Zhang Bin continued to ask: "Has the place where the official lives been arranged?" ”

Zhao Yan didn't answer at this time, but turned his head to look at his master Wu Shiqi.

Wu Shiqi hurriedly pointed to a farmhouse at the foot of the mountain in the distance and said, "Lord County Order, it has been arranged, it is that family." ”

Zhang Bin looked at the location, nodded and said, "Well, it's good to be close to the mountain, let's go over directly, and save the trouble of tossing back and forth." ”

Naturally, everyone did not dare to object, and the group continued to walk along the village road.

At this time, many villagers were watching curiously, but when they saw Li Zheng nodding and following this group, none of the villagers dared to approach.

Just kidding, Li Zheng is the head of this place, even he nodded and followed, these people don't know how big it is, who dares to lean on it to find bad luck.

Soon, the group came to the farmhouse at the bottom of the mountain.

This farmhouse does not have any walls, but a courtyard with a bamboo fence, and even the courtyard gate is a broken bamboo gate.

At this time, the broken bamboo door had been opened, and a man and two women were standing at the gate of the courtyard and waiting respectfully.

Zhang Bin took a look, the man was about twenty years old, lean and lean, one of the two women was about sixteen or seventeen years old, and the other was only five or six years old.

When he saw the sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl, Zhang Bin couldn't help but be stunned, what was going on, how could she be a stunning beauty again!

The three people at the door saw that the group had come to the front, and hurriedly knelt on the ground and kowtowed: "Grass people Chen Zhi, Chen Yingying, Chen Xiuxiu, meet the county commander." ”

Both are surnamed Chen, and they look a little similar, they seem to be brothers and sisters, not husband and wife.

No, this Chen Yingying is too beautiful, coarse linen clothes can't cover her stunning demeanor, is it because she is lucky to go to the peach blossoms, and she can meet stunning beauties anywhere?

Zhang Bin didn't believe that things were so coincidental, and he couldn't help but look at Wu Shiqi and Zhao Yan suspiciously.

What the hell are these two guys doing!
