229 The willows are dark and the flowers are bright, and Meng Meng's clever plan comes
Sun Nianfei sent a message to Yingfu, and the above was just a simple proposal: "The 5,000 people who came later joined the conscription team, and all the remuneration and entertainment were according to the previous rules." ”
Gu is to say, no matter whether it is a new or old conscript, they all take the same money and eat the same amount of food.
Win Fu thought about it for a while, and also understood the reason why Sun Nian and Cui Ze acted like this. As long as the hearts of the people are united, the strong men are not lazy, the officials are not greedy for ink, there are more people, and the working days are shortened, and the final expenses are the same.
With the experience of Mrs. Fan's mother's brother and the officials who were greedy for ink, Yingfu made up his mind to supervise all the money and food distributed in the future. lest they harm the people and fatten up the rat-like officials.
The sun is scorching, and the earth is cracking. The crops in the field are yellow, and the tips of the leaves are yellow.
"Fortunately, it was the Imperial Doctor who led the villagers to open the ditch, otherwise, now these leaves are not just yellow." The old man stood on the edge of the sky, watching his son carry water to water the fields, and watching the clear water sink into the soil in an instant and disappear.
"yes, Daddy." The man who carried the water put down the flat shoulder and wiped the sweat with a cloth towel, "As long as there is water to pour, you can plant rice seedlings alive, and you can harvest a little in the future." ”
The old man smiled and squinted his eyes and sighed, "Your eldest brother and third brother have gone to repair the canal, but you have to drench our fields with hard work." ”
The man on the side squatted down and smiled, "It's okay Dad." They also worked hard to build canals. That's how I should be. "As long as this year's harvest is saved, the three brothers will not leave their hometown with their father. Speaking of which, he still has to thank His Majesty who is far away in the imperial capital and the imperial doctor who is in Quyang.
There are people who think like him in their hearts. Originally, everyone thought that when the drought came, they would lose the autumn harvest. Unexpectedly, His Majesty had them in his heart and spent a lot of money to repair the canal...... His father said that such a king is rare.
People can't help but chatter. The man who carried the water was still talking about Win Fu, and the next moment, Win Fu appeared with someone.
"Daddy!" The man exclaimed, "Doctor Yu Shi is here!" "He had seen Yingfu from afar a few days ago, so he knew Yingfu.
Yingfu, who is walking between the ridges to inspect the situation of rice fields and wheat fields, "........" himself is so popular?
Staring at the warm eyes of the old man and the man, Ying Fu approached unhurriedly and asked, "What is the old man doing here?" ”
When I heard it, it was like a question.
The old man and his son got up in a panic and wanted to kneel down to speak, but were stopped by Ying Fu, "Don't kneel." You're here...... Carry water to water the fields. In the end, it was his own conclusion.
"Back to Doctor Shi, the little old man took the boy to pour rice seedlings. Don't let them die. ”
"Well, that's right. You are very hardworking. He heard from the guards around him that the father and son were drenched four or five times a day. It's really hard.
"The father and son rely on these fields, but they have to serve well, so they can live."
Ying Fu nodded heavily, "Why just the two of you?" "Shouldn't there be an unfilial son lying at home waiting to eat?
Speaking of this, the old man was happy and said: "The eldest and third sons went to dig ditches, and the second son knows how to farm best, so he will take care of the land at home." ”
"I see." Ying Fu nodded, and heard the man's stomach rumbling next to the old man, and took out a cloth bag in his arms with his eyebrows, "Give it to the old man." Then he passed over the father and son, and led the group away.
The old man held a soft cloth bag in his hand, he didn't have to think about it, he knew that it was precious food, and he walked a few steps to catch up with Yingfu, but he almost fell, but fortunately his son helped him in time, "Dad, be careful." ”
"Son, go and return this cloth bag to Dr. Yushi. We can't accept this. He couldn't tell an old farmer what the truth was, but he was still frightened and uneasy when he received a favor for no reason. It doesn't belong to him.
"Hey." This man is also kind, after listening to the old man's words, he took the cloth bag and rushed forward, wanting to catch up with Yingfu.
Ying Fu heard the guard say that the man was catching up, blinked, stopped, and waited for him to come.
"I gave this thing to the old man, what are you doing here? Respect for the elderly is the principle that our Majesty has always pursued, and you can take good care of him in the future. ”
"This ...... It's not my home stuff......."
"If you don't have enough to eat, how can you water the fields? When you starve, your father and your brother will probably not survive. Ying Fu said lightly what the man was most afraid of in his heart, and did not give him a chance to speak, and said: "Tomorrow, a county order in Shu that is very capable of farming will come to Quyang." When the time comes, you'll have to talk to him about the things in the field. ”
"I only know a few dozen words, I don't know anything. No, but this is a heavy responsibility! Hope that Dr. Shi will think twice. ”
"Wow. Don't dare? Win Fu held back all the man's words with a few fluttering words, "What is your name?" ”
The man didn't dare to avoid it, "Xiaomin's name is Yang He." ”
"Okay, Yang He. That's it, tomorrow at this time, waiting in your field. After saying that, Yingfu left Yang He, who was shocked, to go back.
"Yes." Yang He could only say this, touching the cloth bag in his hand, and feeling that the wind was much warmer.
Ying Fu in the distance was still thinking about things, and was asked by his guard Xiaosi: "Doctor Yushi, you didn't let the boss come today, did you let him go to pick up the county order?" ”
"Yes. Xiaoyi recognized him. Ying Fu said in a good mood that he was looking forward to seeing Rong Meng as soon as possible, so as to help him solve the crops in the Quyang dry land. Hey, when it comes to dryland crops, can he take care of them? "Don't let everyone rejoice.
"Don't worry, Doctor Goshi. How can the person sent by His Majesty be a showman? ”
"That's right. See. ”
The next morning, as soon as Ying Fu got up, Xiao Yi had already taken Rong Meng to the mansion.
"Rong Meng?"
"Xiaguan Rongmeng has seen Doctor Yushi."
"Excuse me! After washing up and having breakfast, we went to see the fields. ”
"Okay." Rong Meng said with a hearty smile. I don't mind running around the fields non-stop at all.
After breakfast, Ying Fu and Rong Meng took a car to Yang He's field. Yang He has been waiting with Yang Laohan. And the ground has already been watered by him. Because he had to wait for Win Fu and stood aside, he seemed to be distinguishable from the busy crowd next to him.
Some people also learned that Yang He had the blue eyes of a big official, and they were secretly red.
"(Old man) Xiaomin meets the Imperial Doctor! Meet the officials. ”
"Please." Ying Fu smiled faintly and said, "This is the acting county commander of Quyang, Rong Meng." That's the prefectural magistrate I said yesterday who will help us get through this.
Yang He and Yang Laohan were stunned, and the people who stretched out their ears to eavesdrop were also shocked, plus unconvinced.
That's too young, right? Do you know how to farm? Don't brag, right? Don't bother everyone then.
After more than a year of training, Rong Meng is good at vision and ability to recognize people. Looking at the questioning of the farmer father and son in front of him, he laughed and said, "I have been walking in the fields with my grandfather since I was a child, and he once served as a messenger in the rice field. ”
When the people heard this, they were amazed. It turns out that this is still the queen of the eunuch?
Ying Fu and the others were also taken aback, but they didn't expect it. You must know that the rice field envoy was an important official position in the Han Dynasty, in charge of rice field cultivation. Among them, the burden is not light, and those who are not experienced in agriculture are not allowed to serve. It seems that Rong Menghe is also a "family student", and the origin is very long-term?
Rong Meng's words made everyone no longer speak wantonly and doubt him, and then, he walked into the rice field without water alone, squatted down carefully, touched the sand in the field, frowned and thought for a long time, sweat dripped drop by drop, staining a piece of soil, and he showed his face. The other person was tall and big, and he stepped in front of Ying Fu in a few steps and asked Yang Laohan: "Old man, do you know where there are round stones?" ”
"Round? Stone? Yang Laohan repeated suspiciously, searching for a place with stones in his heart.
But Ying Fu asked, "What do you want to do with stones?" ”
Rong Meng didn't answer and asked: "Doctor Yushi, do you think that under the thick layer of stones, the water is easy to dry?" ”
Win Fu is not stupid, hearing this, his eyes lit up, and he asked affirmatively: "You have thought of a way to save the rice seedlings!" ”
