Riding a donkey leisurely in this spring breeze willow, as soon as he entered the realm of Luxian, heaven and earth seemed to have become two completely different.

The original pickled road, here, immediately became wide and flat, although not as extravagant as the road with loess tamping, paved with bluestone, but also carefully rolled, and then on top of the thick river sand, people walk on it, feel a refreshing, smooth both sides of the wide road, but also dig a wide drainage ditch, last night a spring rain did not make the road muddy at all.

The road is not like other places are depressed, the trafficking merchants and carriages along the way can be described as endless, especially these merchants, it seems that as soon as they step into the border of Lu County, everyone becomes relaxed, the original panicked and hurried footsteps have also become slow and relaxed, and the originally depressed mood has also become brisk, and they all began to talk and laugh, and those who knew each other began to greet each other.

Merchants are like a stream of living water, where there are more merchants, where there will be lively.

The fields on both sides of the road were full of people busy plowing the fields and sowing seeds, men and women, old people and children, all ploughing after the rare spring rains.

There were no overseers in the fields with leather whips like elsewhere, and even if there were, they were idle, so they simply found a dry and shady place to drink water or sleep, and the tenants seemed to have no need for supervision, and they were full of energy.

After getting off the donkey, Tian Fengshu reactivated his somewhat stiff legs, walked down the road, and entered a field. The overseer who fell in the shade saw a scribe with a high crown coming, and quickly got up, trotted over, and knelt directly to the ground: "Little sir, I don't know if there is anything wrong with sir?" ”

The literati were the most respected, and wherever they were, they were regarded as supreme beings by the ignorant people.

Tian Feng nodded, and smiled and said: "Get up, I'm just a passerby, I saw that the people here are hardworking and don't need to supervise the work, so I came over curiously to take a look." ”

The overseer quickly got up, hunched over and replied cautiously: "This land is the land of the head of my family, and is called the land of Zhou Dashan by the people. "When it comes to great good people, Tian Feng quietly slanders, rich people are good? Whoever is called a good person in the world is actually the most evil.

"Since this year, our lord has reduced the land rent of the tenants to 55, so all the tenants will be honored from the bottom of their hearts."

"Five-fifty land rent?" This surprised Tian Feng, under the condition that the land rent under the whole day was at least thirty-seven or even higher, he could earn five or five land rents with the tenants, which can definitely be called a good person.

"In the spring of previous years, our legs were the most difficult to do, and the tenants did not want to plow, so we had to carry whips to each house and drive them away, and then we had to stare at them and stop running, or the land would be barren, and this year would be blind."

"Now, I think you're pretty laid-back."

To be able to speak so closely to a scribe, this dog-legged overseer felt that it was unnoble, so he talked a little more.

"Now we are indeed idle, as soon as our lord lowers the rent of this land, the tenants also see that if they work harder and tenant more land, they will be able to harvest a lot more crops and grain in the autumn, and of course they will work hard, and now you let him run away, and I will be idle." Then he looked around, yes, his whip had forgotten where it had been lost at this time, and if it had been lost, he would have to be scolded by the butler when he returned.

"Five-five land rent, then your Zhou family has a lot of grain income?"

"Can't, can't." This dogleg hurriedly denied: "I'm a rough person, and I don't understand the twists and turns here, but according to what our young master said to the master, if this continues, in the autumn, our family's grain will not only not be less than in previous years, but will be more." Then proudly affirmed: "My little master is a scholar, what he said is right." ”

The enthusiasm of the tenants has gone up, and the output has gone up, but the fifty-five accounts will not be less than the three sevens, this is a co-ordination study, of course, this dog leg does not understand, Tian Feng also seems to understand whether he understands or not, but it seems that this is the truth.

Looking into the distance, there was a big round guy on the riverside, stretching out four or five big wings, in the slight spring breeze, slowly and leisurely, Tian Feng was curious.

That dogleg had the eyesight to see, and immediately introduced to Tian Feng: "Sir, haven't you seen that object?" ”

Tian Feng nodded, even if he was well-informed and well-read, he really hadn't seen this thing, so he humbly asked for advice: "Little brother, talk to me." ”

was called a little brother by a scribe, and at that time, the dog's legs were beautiful, and he could go back and show off at night.

"So that Mr. knows that that huge thing, we call him Lu's windmill, is a rare thing produced in the Savage Valley, that is a good thing."

"Windmills? What's so good? They asked curiously.

Seeing that even the dignified scribe didn't understand, this dogleg foamed at the mouth with excitement and introduced.

"This windmill is said to have been built by General Lu Penglu, the descendant of the gods, and the most amazing thing is that it can lift the water from low-lying land and rivers up to the high ground to irrigate the land without human and animal power, and the maximum height can be raised to that high-" The dogleg pointed to the middle of the tall windmill.

Tian Feng put up a pergola and looked there, and mentally calculated that there were no two zhang (six meters), and there was a two-story attic height, if this was really the case, then the irrigated land area would expand innumerable.

"The most amazing thing is this thing, don't eat forage just drink the wind, and it doesn't stop day and night, just my lord's piece:" and then gestured with his hand: "There are 300 acres of land here, after we leveled it, it only took five days and nights to irrigate the moisture in winter, which was in the original, not to mention that our land is more than a zhang high from this river channel can not be watered at all, even if it takes countless manpower to irrigate, it is not a month or two to think about it." ”

Tian Feng smiled and said: "It's really going to take a month or two, it's almost autumn, and what do you do with him." ”

"What Mr. said is, so when there was a spring drought in previous years, this land could only be abandoned before its eyes, but this year there is this artifact, plus God takes care of this spring rain, and this year's harvest is ironclad."

"This guy is so amazing, it must be expensive."

"Expensive, that's quite expensive." As soon as the price was mentioned, this dog's leg was painful at the time: "Just this guy, our master bought it, and it cost 20,000 yuan, and it took a long time to get it." ”

20,000 yuan, this is indeed a lot of money, which can make a small family live without food and clothing for a year.
