When Tang Xidong, who got the news, arrived.

These simple and kind farmers fell to the ground one by one, they were kneeling to the sky and kneeling to the ground, and they were kneeling down to Tang Xidong, who grew grain with one hand.

Looking at the men, women, and children who were kneeling down to him all over the mountains, Tang Xidong's tears couldn't be controlled and flowed down his face.

In fact, he doesn't have a compassionate heart to save the world, he says it is for himself in the end.

But at this moment, he cried for the ancestors in front of him, the ancestors who were oppressed by life, the ancestors who were deceived by God, and the ancestors who were bound by poverty and backwardness.

At this moment, I looked at the faces that were as devout as if they were worshiping the gods.

Tang Xidong deeply felt his responsibility, and he had a better understanding of his appearance in this era and the world.

For the first time, Tang Xidong had the heart to save the world.

Behind her, Liu Lianqing appeared, in her bright smile, and her eyes filled with tears.

At this moment, she looked at the scholar in front of her, the thin scholar, like a god who saved the common people.

Unconsciously, there was a sense of pride in my heart.

In fact, this person is her husband, although she has never really admitted it before.

But......

Mid-September.

Early in the morning, Tang Xidong, who had just gone out, looked at the thin layer of ice at the door and was silent.

There is no autumn in this Ming Dynasty, so winter is coming.

The time for the final planting is about to pass.

At breakfast time, Tang Xidong and Liu Lianqing ate in silence.

Meal.

"The population of the cottage has broken 3,000 now, the greenhouses on the four terraces have been set up, the houses in the back mountains are enough for everyone to live, and there are two rows of houses building roofs, it is estimated that it will be completed in these two days, and then it will be able to solve the new housing on the mountain in the future."

Liu Lianqing said softly, and Tang Xidong listened carefully.

Yesterday evening, he had already seen it, so he naturally knew this.

"It's starting to freeze this morning, and we can't delay it any longer, so I'll arrange for people to go to the ground to sow seeds today." Tang Xidong said, Liu Lianqing nodded: "I will arrange it." ”

"The way of sowing seeds should also be improved, the seeds should be removed from the inferior and the good ones should be saved, and the full particles should be picked up and planted, as well as fertilizer, that is, more fertilizer should be applied, but fortunately, the latrine has been repaired recently, and the fertilizer is ready-made."

Liu Lianqing nodded again.

"Nowadays, every family's kang is burned with briquettes, and everyone says that they heard that the briquettes were also made by you, and they respect you even more, and they are about to treat you as a fairy."

Hearing the girl's praise, Tang Xidong had a smile on his face.

"Coal mine, now arranged for 100 people to go down to the pit, start mining again, after all, there are more people on the mountain, bathhouses, ondols, and bricks all need coal and stone, and now there are more than 30 cars of coal dug out every day, but it is enough for the cottage."

"We still have to pay attention to safety, try to dig along the coal seam, pay more attention to the top of the head, everyone's life is precious, in case of an accident, it is not good for everyone." Tang Xidong still asked one more sentence.

"Yesterday, Hu Jiaozi has delivered all the finished crossbow guns to the guard team, and now with the new 200 people, everyone has weapons, and after a while, you can see the results, with these 300 people in hand, at least don't worry about people outside coming to make bad ideas." Tang Xidong said, Liu Lianqing thought about it, and said with some concern: "It's still not safe, after all, they haven't fought properly." ”

"Speaking of which, I don't think Ansheng's life will be long, I heard that the rebels almost defeated Hongdong County, which has been besieged for more than half a month a few days ago, and I am afraid that it will not take long to fight, so we still have to prepare early."

It was the first time for Liu Lianqing to hear such bad news, and it was only a Hongdong County away from Pingyang Mansion, which was really not far away, so she frowned worriedly.

"Therefore, the new recruits of the garrison team have to hurry up and train, and the city guarding crossbow also allows them to seize the time to become proficient, take precautions early, and have a bottom in their hearts."

"That's the only way to do it, but fortunately, the cottage population is enough." Liu Lianqing temporarily put aside her worries and said.

"The track that was paved yesterday, I looked at it, it really saved a lot of time and effort, but I was afraid that it would not be strong and could not be used." Liu Lianqing pursed her lips as she spoke, as if she was a little worried, Tang Xidong looked at the rare cuteness of the girl, and her face involuntarily bloomed: "It's okay, it's not too difficult to repair it if it's broken, and you can't delay anything." ”

The two of them were talking one by one, pulling gossip, chatting like this, the two of them were used to it, and no one knew when it suddenly became like this.

It's very reassuring, but also has an inexplicable emotion, and neither of them says anything, they both enjoy it silently.

After breakfast, Tang Xidong went out of the yard.

The first thing that appeared in the square was a neat row of toilets, which were separated from men and women, and there were also separate bathhouses.

This was followed by the enlarged blacksmith's workshop, carpenter's workshop, and warehouse.

The front and back mountains are neat and clean houses, but it is like the Sera Mountain City of later generations, built by the mountain, row down, but more neat, now the roof is sealed, the house is now full of people, although it is small but warm. The rows of terraced rice fields on the mountainside are all fenced off and cannot be seen from the outside.

A straight mountain path divides the terraces into left and right sides, half of which is made of steps and half of which is paved with flat stone slabs, and a long track follows the flat stone slab road all the way down.

Every 100 meters away, there is a reel wrapped with hemp rope, which is used to pull the cart, considering that the whole mountain road is too long, so Tang Xidong divided the mountain road into six sections, each section has more than 100 meters, press the last reel, stir the water tank up, and then put it to the next section, the people above pull it again, and go up the mountain in turn, so as to speed up the speed of lifting water.

The well that has been drilled at the foot of the mountain is very large, and the water always stops at the highest water mark.

Halfway up the back mountain, turn to the side of Shanyin, on a flat field dug out, there are coal blocks and miscellaneous soil, and the tunnel is also paved with tracks, leading directly to the outside yard, so that two people pull in front and three people push in the back, which is very labor-saving.

The fourth terraced field, has been near the foot of the mountain, it seems to have been to the future generations of thousands of acres of fields, this terrace, Tang Xidong arranged to build three rows of brick walls, the middle of the two rows of brick walls is too far away, the roof can not be set up at all.

Some time ago, an old boy came to the cottage, which was picked up by his son, and the old boy played a warm-up, and opened a school with a few literate young people, and the leather monkeys of the whole cottage finally did it.

The guard team has now expanded to 300 people, and Li Shangquan is already the captain. The next team is divided into three hundred-man squads, and then divided into ten combat groups each.

The finance department is personally managed by Liu Lianqing, Liu Dagou has become the manager of the human resources department, managing the large and small people on the mountain, Deng Dahu is managing the agricultural affairs, the craftsman office is jointly managed by Huang Laosan, and the coal mine is managed by an old miner named Tai Danian, who has dug the mine for most of his life and has experience.

At noon, Liu Lianqing led people to pull the selected seeds and began to sow seeds, which is not Tang Xidong's strong point, so naturally he will not guide indiscriminately, and there are special people responsible for sowing, fertilizing, and sprinkling.

And Liu Dagou also returned to the mountain, and now the people in the cottage are enough for the time being.

There is no need to go down the mountain to recruit people, of course, if someone wants to go up the mountain, as long as they are not treacherous people, Tang Xidong is also welcome.
