After a while, the guards came back with their heads to give their lives, Wang Zhengyue was stunned, a timid soldier fainted on the ground, and the officials were so frightened that they didn't dare to move.

Sun Chuanting instructed the guards: "Sun San, you and Sun Si ride horses, pass on the head of the county guards, let them see, and the fate of opposing this official." ”

Then Wen Yan said to Wang Zhengyu: "Wang Zhixian can not be afraid of tyranny and act according to the emperor's strategy, and this official will repay you for his merits." Continue to clean up the tuntian, report something to the official, and the official will call the shots for you. ”

Wang Zheng made an appointment to kill a thousand households of the fifth grade when he was talking and laughing, and he was so frightened that he came back to his soul at this time, and when he heard the prefect praise himself, he hurriedly said modestly: "It's all the prefect's proper arrangement, and the lower officials are just acting on orders, and they can't be counted." ”

Everyone entered the county Yahou Hall, Wang Zhengyue officially began to report the situation, the promotion of crops he arranged for the lord Bo and the county to do, has signed a contract with some large places, two percent of the task should be completed, the biggest obstacle to the clean-up of the military tun is Chen Qianhu, now the resistance has been removed, should be completed before the spring sowing of next year.

Sun Chuanting was not at ease, so he personally went down to Juntun with Lu Xuan, inspected it carefully, and couldn't help but sigh deeply when he saw the Tunyin field cleaned up by the county officials. Now it's just a matter of cleaning up the military tun, and so many problems have been discovered, and there are actually more problems in Mintian. The Ming Dynasty just had too many moths, so the court couldn't collect taxes, couldn't strengthen the soldiers, and a small Jiannu could be so arrogant.

After two days of inspection in Ansai, Sun Chuanting and Lu Xuan turned to Baoan County with satisfaction. It seems that the method of passing on the first county health office is very effective, and the security county order said that a few days ago, there were still 100 households obstructing, and now they have obediently accepted the investigation of the county yamen and withdrawn from the hidden fields occupied by the county. However, the Baoan County Order raised two problems, one was the problem of insufficient tuntian, which was originally sufficient according to the original number of tuntian, but because of the increase in the number of surpluses, it was not possible for one person (adult male) to get 50 acres. The other is that after the abolition of the guardhouse, it may lead to the problem of insufficient military strength. Originally, when the guard was located, although there was no combat effectiveness, there was finally a tiger skin there, which could still scare some people, but now that the tiger skin is gone, there is really something wrong, I am afraid that it will be helpless.

Sun Chuanting smiled: "These two questions are actually one problem, I was going to talk about it after cleaning up Juntun, since you mentioned this matter, it means that this matter has affected Qingtun, and the official is not thoughtful." There are two methods, one is to open up the wasteland, and after the ownerless wasteland is reclaimed, no taxes will be paid for one year. One is recruitment, the situation of each county is different, I have asked Lu Tong to judge according to the population situation of each county to set a number, each county to recruit a part of the soldiers, one to solve the problem of Tuntian Yuding, the other can deter Xiaoxiao. Then send people to start recruiting in each county now, and start training while the farm is slack.

Sun Chuanting gave the emperor a lesson, first talked about the current situation, and then focused on two things, one is the training problem after recruiting soldiers, mainly the lack of people. The second is the problem of the fate of sweet potatoes and potatoes after harvesting. After Zhu Youxiao received the fold, he ordered a few of the brothers of the obscure Ming to go to Yan'an Mansion to serve as the head of the teaching and train the local recruits, and when it came to the latter thing, because it was not very urgent, Wei Zhongxian was asked to be in charge and find someone to make sweet potato vermicelli and potato vermicelli.

By the time the monks of Shaolin Temple came to Yan'an Mansion, Sun Chuanting had already recruited more than 5,000 soldiers. He also selected soldiers in accordance with Qi Jiguang's method, which was slippery, and specially recruited strong and simple farmers. Because the firearms in the guard station are outdated and cannot be used at all, the soldiers are only divided into two types: pikemen and shield soldiers.

In February of the first year of the Apocalypse, the cleanup of the tuntian in Yan'an Mansion was finally completed. A total of 300,000 acres of hidden land were cleared, and 1.3 million acres of barren land were reclaimed at the same time.

The promotion of new crops is also going well, and Sun Chuanting distributed the seeds to the counties free of charge, proposing that as long as the planting area is completed, the money from the sale of seeds in the counties can be kept in the county. Although the villagers may not believe it, but the signing of the contract to ensure the purchase of crops at the price has made many people moved, especially some knowledgeable large landowners, after a calculation, they found that it is more cost-effective than planting millet and wheat, so they enthusiastically buy, resulting in some county people wanting to buy seeds but not available. After Sun Chuanting received the news, he couldn't help sighing, the emperor said that the role of money is endless, and this sentence is really not wrong. When will the county officials take the initiative to do things like this, if it weren't for the seed money that could stay in the county, everyone would never be so enthusiastic about promoting.

In September of the first year of the Apocalypse, Wei Zhongxian's henchman Li Yongzhen came to Yan'an Mansion with some eunuchs. At this time, the little eunuch brought by Sun Chuanting had completed the formulation of the regulations for the management of experiments and crop cultivation, and they were also under the jurisdiction of Li Yongzhen.

Li Yongzhen was originally supervising the construction of the three major halls, but after Zhu Youxiao stopped the reconstruction of the three major halls, Wei Zhongxian arranged for him to manage the production experiment of the fans. He led people to experiment with sweet potatoes and potatoes in Huangzhuang, and according to the production method of mung bean vermicelli, he quickly mastered the production method of sweet potatoes and potato vermicelli, and after repeated improvements, he was sent to Yan'an Mansion to deal with the harvested sweet potatoes and potatoes.

As soon as Li Yongzhen came, he bought four large houses in Fushi County, Baoan County, Suide Prefecture, and Shenmu County, all of which were close to the grain depot, and then began to recruit workers, and when he finished these things, the sweet potatoes and potatoes began to be harvested.

Sun Chuanting began to buy a large number of these two crops at the original price, and this year's weather in Yan'an Mansion was good, and both crops achieved good harvests, and if it were not for Li Yongzhen who brought him silver, he would not have been able to harvest the sweet potatoes and potatoes in the hands of the peasants.

Li Yongzhen was well prepared, and as soon as he waited for the harvest, he began to make vermicelli, and after repeated experiments to determine the production method of vermicelli, the vermicelli was really good, especially the sweet potato vermicelli, which is resistant to boiling and not easy to break, and is slippery after boiling water, with a lot of elasticity and a good taste. Li Yongzhen is very business-minded, he has set up sales points in larger cities in Shaanxi, specializing in selling vermicelli, first of all, it is supplied to restaurants and green buildings everywhere, and soon the market was opened, and the people also began to pay attention to this new product, which was in short supply for a while, Li Yongzhen quickly opened a vermicelli factory in other counties, and tried to supply to Jingshi and Nanzhili, and soon the royal "delicious" brand vermicelli became a hot commodity in Beijing, in addition to the purchase cost of labor and Sun Chuanting, this small vermicelli, In the first year of the Apocalypse, he earned more than 1.2 million taels of silver.
