The forty-fifth round, get grain and grass to stabilize the longevity of spring

Li Hongzhang's refuge is still very simple, but why is there a pit in Zhang Yi? Why didn't Li Hongzhang plan to serve before, but he wanted to serve when he reached the position of commander of the navy?

Could it be that Li Hongzhang is still obsessed with the Beiyang Naval Division? Otherwise, I won't forget the water army!

Is this good or bad? Zhang Yi really didn't know. But if you can Li Hongzhang, let's get through the difficulties in front of you first!

Zhang Yi helped Li Hongzhang up and said, "But now that Shouchun is withering, I am afraid that I will not be able to establish a naval army." ”

Li Hongzhang said: "Don't worry, my lord, I already knew the situation in Shouchun. I have hoarded 100,000 stone of grain and grass, prepared seeds, farm tools, and ploughed cattle, all of which I am now offering to my lord! ”

Zhang Yi said in surprise: "Gradually, why is this? ”

What's the situation? Could it be that something is wrong with the system? Not to mention giving a Li Hongzhang, but also funding so many things?

However, the system still did not answer.

Li Hongzhang said: "Although Zhang is utilitarian, he doesn't want to see too many people die. Now that the world is in turmoil, there are few people who can be pacified, most of the princes are from families, and the only ones from low backgrounds are the lord, Cao Sikong, Sun Bofu and Liu Xuande. ”

"Although Cao Sikong is powerful, his killing is too heavy. Sun Bofu can fight well, but he will not deal with the relationship with the Hao family. Liu Xuande claims to be benevolent and righteous, but he has no fixed place. However, although the lord sent people under the fence, he belonged to the trapped dragon, and now he has a long spring, knowing the timing, and the dragon will definitely return to the sea in the future. ”

Zhang Yi waved his hand and pretended to be polite. But I was thinking in my heart that if you hadn't been summoned by the system, you would definitely not say that about me.

"The Lord's justice is a difficult time, I will help my family, and in the future, the Lord will not forget my merits."

"Rest assured! If I really achieve great things in the future, I will gradually become a general, which is unspeakably expensive! Zhang Yi said with a guarantee, anyway, it's all a blank check, let's open it first.

In this way, under the BUG of the system, Li Hongzhang completely surrendered to Zhang Yi. While preparing grain, grass, seeds and farm tools, he took Zhang Yi to his dock to have a look.

When he arrived at the dock, Zhang Yi found that the ship he had built was really not small. Although he had not seen how big the warships of this era were, the ships in the dockyard should not be smaller than the largest warships of this era.

"Lord, this is Meng Kang, these warships he supervised." Li Hongzhang pulled a strong man and said.

Meng Kang? Isn't this a summoned figure? How did he get to Li Hongzhang? Where did Meng Kang's implantation come from at that time? I seem to have forgotten a little.

Meng Kang also knew about Li Hongzhang's dedication to Zhang Yi, and hurriedly saluted Zhang Yi, "Meet the lord." ”

Zhang Yi nodded and said, "Please get up!" I now appoint Li Zhang as the captain of Fubo, with full authority to take charge of the navy and reconnoiter Chaohu Zheng Bao and others. Ordered Meng Kang to be the captain, supervise the construction of warships, and assist Li Zhang. ”

"Thank you, my lord!" Li Hongzhang and Meng Kang hurriedly thanked him.

Zhang Yi took it to Hefei for ten days, and then returned to Shouchun with grain, grass, seeds, farm tools, and cattle.

After returning to Shouchun, before June, you can carry out a late ploughing. Fortunately, the crops in the Huainan area can be almost twice a year, and if you plant them now, you can still get grain in the autumn.

If you go further north, it is estimated that it will be difficult because the accumulated temperature is not enough.

As a child of a farmer's family, Zhang Yi still knows a little about farming. Although I am not proficient, I still know a lot of scientific knowledge.

After Zhang Yi returned to Shouchun, Li Shangyin reported to him: "Lord, I have confirmed that the borderless land of Shouchun is 80,000 acres. Among them, there are more than 30,000 acres of fertile land, which can be completely implemented. ”

Zhang Yi nodded, "Then implement the tuntian, worry about those hungry people who can't survive, cooperate with them to implement the mintun, and distribute land to them after three years." ”

Li Shangyin nodded, indicating understanding. However, he also said: "Shi Qian went to Lujiang this time, but he did not see Liu Xun, and he did not get any funding back. ”

When Zhang Yi heard this, he immediately frowned and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Li Shangyin looked at Zhang Yi cautiously and said: "Listening to Shi Qian, it seems that the other party looks down on the lord and says that the lord is a down-and-out. ”

Zhang Yi was angry, you are Liu Xun! I didn't recruit you, I didn't provoke you, you humiliated me. You wait for me, see if I don't clean yours!

However, Liu Xun still needs to put it aside, he has to arrange the cultivation of the fields first.

With seeds and ploughing cattle, the people of Shouchun also saw hope. And this year's rain is good, remember that Shouchun is close to the water of Wei, which is a tributary of Huaishui and can irrigate farmland.

With the 100,000 stone grain and grass obtained from Li Hongzhang, it is enough for 50,000 people in Shouchun to eat until next year's spring ploughing. Moreover, in winter, one season can be harvested, and nearly 100,000 stone of grain can be harvested.

At this time, the farm tools were very simple, and Zhang Yi had no way to improve them. This is mainly a problem of the forging process, which cannot be solved in a short period of time.

In late June, when the summer was about to end, all the 80,000 acres were planted.

In order not to let these people be idle, food is wasted. Zhang Yi asked Li Shangyin to take care of the grain, weed and catch insects, and by the way, he got some chickens, ducks and geese to stock.

He himself led the people to restore the defense of Shouchun and repair the city walls. And built a military fortress outside the city and on the riverside opposite Xia Cai in the north, so that Shang Shi and his apprentices could guard it here.

Originally, this place should have been handed over to Di Qing, but Di Qing asked Zhang Yi to send him to the Chaohu area to find Liu Ye. Zheng Bao is entrenched in Chaohu Lake and has hoarded a lot of wealthy families, which can be said to be very rich.

The husband is not guilty, but he is guilty. Of course, Zhang Yi was greedy for such a large amount of wealth, so he sent Di Qing to contact Liu Ye first to see if there was a chance to kill Zheng Bao. And he has already said hello to Li Hongzhang, as long as there is a change in Chaohu, he will immediately enter Chaohu.

At the beginning of July, an angel came from Xuchang and brought the will of the Son of Heaven. Zhang Yi was named a rebellious general because of his meritorious work in getting rid of Yuan Shu, and the official worshiped Jiujiang Taishou, and also named a Yicheng Pavilion Marquis.

It can be said that this is a step to the sky, and it is not even more than three levels. Above the general is the partial general, above the partial general there is the Zhonglang general, and above the miscellaneous general.

The promotion of official positions is also obvious, originally Zhang Yi had no official position, but now he is directly too guarded.

There is another feudal marquis, Yicheng is a county in Jiujiang County, and now a pavilion in Yicheng County already belongs to Zhang Yi's fiefdom.

Zhang Yi didn't care much about the matter of sealing the marquis. But the people of Shouchun care very much, they know that after Zhang Yi becomes the Taishou of Jiujiang, they are all overjoyed, because it means that Zhang Yi will not leave Shouchun in a short time, their hope is still there, at least there is no need to worry about it for a few years.
