He Liu Xiangdao inherited his father, started from the middle school, and the officialdom has been up and down for many years, and it was not easy to sit in the position of Sinong Siqing.

But what he lacks is the attention of the top bigwigs in the court, or the attention of the emperor. If the emperor attaches great importance to it, or it is appreciated by a big man like Li Ji, he actually has the qualifications to be a secretary or something, and even turn to be a Chinese scholar, and it is very likely that he will pay homage to him in the future, the key is that there is a lack of support.

He used to want to tie up with his eldest grandson Wuji, but now that Li Ji is favored and has become an important minister who co-chairs the government with his eldest grandson, he is worried that he can't find a way to tie up.

Now Li Ji asked him to take care of Li Xiao, it seems that Li Xiao obviously has a relationship with Li Ji, no matter what his relationship is, he just borrowed Li Xiao to take Li Ji's path, maybe he can get through.

"As soon as I receive the holy decree, I will immediately arrange for someone to prepare a courtyard for you to be your corn supervisor's office." Liu Xiangdao was too polite to Li Xiao, and he was too enthusiastic.

"Regarding the deputy supervisor and other officials of the corn supervisor, the above has not yet been appointed, and this has to wait for the news of the Ministry of Officials. However, the officials of the corn supervisor can be selected by ourselves, and Supervisor Li Zheng has any opinions on these subordinate officials, or the right people to recommend them? ”

Liu Xiangdao was very generous, and directly gave Li Xiao the opportunity to recommend his subordinates, you know, although he is a clerk, but after all, he is a clerk under Sinong Temple, a Beijing official, not as ordinary officials, there are more opportunities, and the oil and water are enough.

However, Li Xiao shook his head.

"Regarding the selection of prison officials, it is up to Liu Sinong to select them."

"If you have a suitable candidate, just recommend a few, they all say that the virtuous do not avoid relatives, these officials will also be your subordinates in the future, the right candidates, and they will be able to help you do things more in the future." Liu Xiangdao thought that Li Xiao was polite.

"I was just a rural villager yesterday, where is there any suitable person to recommend, and I asked Liu Sinong to arrange it."

Liu Xiangdao looked at Li Xiao's expression carefully, it didn't seem to be a fake, he had a little more appreciation for this young man in his heart, he was not pampered and arrogant, nor was he proud, he was quite humble at this time, which was rare, especially for such a young man who was an official in vain.

"Okay, I'll go back and help you arrange it, and if you have a suitable candidate, you can recommend it to me at any time."

"The hundred garden farmers, when do you want it, I will arrange it immediately." Liu Xiangdao knew a little about the situation, but he didn't know much, only that the new corn eunuch was personally authorized by the emperor and was specifically responsible for the trial planting of a new crop.

As for what the new crop of corn was like, and what was so magical, he still had no idea. But since the emperor values something, then he will definitely pay attention to it.

Asking people to give people, asking for money to give money, there is no ambiguity.

"I also asked Liu Sinong to help me pick some people who will serve the abundant crops."

"No problem, if our Sinong Temple says that it is a little difficult to find a hundred or so who can go into battle, but if we say that we can find a hundred farmers who can serve the crops, then there is really no problem.

"By the way, a hundred people is not enough, if it is not enough, I can get more." Liu Xiangdao said with a smile.

"Enough, enough." Li Xiao thought to himself, just a little seed, a variety of one and a half acres of corn, a hundred crops of old masters, just one and a half acres of land, and so many officials, dozens of officials, this is a bit too many. "Although the imperial decree planted three plots of corn this time, in fact, only half an acre of land was planted, and the corn supervisor only planted one and a half acres of land in one season, which is actually a bit much."

"How much? Only one and a half acres of land? Liu Sinong was shocked.

After doing it for a long time, the imperial court made such a big move, it was the emperor who sealed it, and the ministers discussed, and Li Ji confessed, and there were so many people in the last corn prison to plant one and a half acres of land?

What the hell is this corn, it's too expensive, isn't it?

"Well, I only rushed to plant one and a half acres first, and I have to save some seeds, otherwise I won't be able to plant so much. But when the summer harvest comes, there will be more varieties by then. ”

"How much can you plant in the summer?" Liu Xiangdao asked.

"If the harvest is not bad, at least 1,500 acres can be planted by then." Li Xiao said, a grain of corn seed grows into at least two sticks, can get 14,500 grains of corn, isn't this a thousand times doubled, even if you lose a little seed, but two-thirds of the harvest, it can also be multiplied a thousand times.

1,500 acres of corn are planted in summer, and the harvested corn will be planted in Datang next year.

"Then why don't you have more points this year, you don't have to worry about manpower anyway." Liu Xiangdao didn't quite understand why he only planted one and a half acres now, but in the summer he had to plant 1,500 acres.

"Because the corn seeds we have in our hands now can only be planted one and a half acres at most, and the seeds in summer will have to wait for the mature harvest planted this spring."

After tossing in Si Nongqing's yamen for a long time, he almost made the matter of planting corn very clear to Liu Xiangdao.

Liu Xiangdao was skeptical, but since the emperor believed it, what reason did he have not to believe it. If Li Xiao can really grow this magical corn, then he, the Si Nongqing, is also a meritorious.

"When will my subordinates take office?" Li Xiao asked.

"After receiving the appointment, ordinary officials have a period of preparation, which can take half a month as close as possible, and even half a year as far away. However, I see that this corn is quite in a hurry to farm, and this spring is also coming to an end, and if I don't rush to plant, I am afraid that the agricultural time will be delayed. In this way, I will give you three days off, you can clean up and prepare at home, how about the official appointment of the yamen in three days? ”

Liu Xiangdao's attitude made the officials next to him secretly envious.

Three days, not much time, but Li Xiao didn't have any requirements, anyway, Lanxi was only eighty miles away from Chang'an. Half a day back and forth is enough, and there is no need for preparation.

After agreeing on the time to take office, Li Xiao took Liu Xiangdao to his official body and official uniform official seal and rode home, the official body was sent by Zhongshumen, which is an official certificate of an official, and the official uniform and official seal are all ready-made, anyway, the six-grade official is a dark green official uniform, and Li Xiao's figure is also well-proportioned.

In this way, Li Xiao can be regarded as an official.

From the Beijing official under the six products, the actual palm seal official, and the corn supervisor under the Sinong Temple. It's not big, but it's not too small, it's not too big, it's not too powerful, but it's an official position with a bit of seriousness.

Under his hands, he is in charge of more than 100 people.

After beating the horse out of Chang'an City, Li Xiao looked back at the towering Chang'an, and suddenly felt a little more excited in his heart. I don't know if I am excited that I am about to plant my first corn in Datang, or that he has officially become an official of Datang.

"Drive, go home."

Li Xiao beat his horse and walked forward, humming a little song coldly as he walked.

"I think at the beginning, Lao Tzu's team was just opened, and there were a total of more than a dozen people with seven or eight guns·······"
