Chapter Ninety-Eight: Spring Sacrifice Farming

(Ask for a collection, boys come to support...... )

Although the time is still short, Guo Yuan's cold and outspoken personality is already familiar to everyone, in the face of such a loyal and upright person, although Han Lie is respectful, sometimes his face will be a little unbearable, for example, at this time, it is reasonable for everyone to be happy, but as soon as Guo Yuan opened his mouth, the atmosphere suddenly cooled down.

Faced with the tension of the atmosphere, Han Lie had to smile bitterly: "What Zi Ni criticized is that we really shouldn't be complacent for this money, but these days, everyone has worked hard. Gongyou, pass on my order, the county rank of 100 stone officials, each reward 100 yuan, 1 pound of white Jiao meat, 5 catties of mutton, more than 200 stones, double, and so on, no one is allowed to deduct. ”

"Whoa." When Sun Qian heard Han Lie's roll call, he hurriedly got up and responded.

"My lord, relying only on Tuntian, can only feed the people, but the training and war rely on financial resources, these days I visited the East China Sea, found a beach place, with the conditions for boiling salt, please arrange manpower, build facilities, develop sea salt, this is a long-term benefit." Guo Yuan waited for Han Lie's words to fall, and opened his mouth to speak.

"That's it." Boiling salt is a big benefit, how could Han Lie not know, even if Guo Yuan didn't say it, he would also carry it out, but the initial investment was not small, he had no money in his hands at the beginning, and he was a newcomer, so he had to put this matter down for the time being, this Guo Yuan brought it up, and he had money in his hand, he gladly accepted it.

"Lord, I think it is not appropriate to recruit soap li, now 110,000 people in Licheng, a thousand soap li say not much, say less is not much, but in a certain opinion, but it is not very useful, I have seen the household register, at least six thousand young people in Licheng belong to the homeless, I think these people can be separately absorbed, compiled into the military tun, agricultural tuntian wasteland, water conservancy, leisure can be trained into the people, responsible for public security patrols, and those who have made meritorious contributions to it, so that they can settle down, so that they can get a group of junior sergeants, It can also reduce most of the soap li's income and save some money for the county government. Guoyuan's talent and insight are indeed somewhat beyond Han Lie's expectations, and the livelihood construction he proposed is undoubtedly very forward-looking, no wonder this person will be respected by Zheng Xuan, thinking that he is a national talent.

"I also approve this matter, you can discuss with Yanyun to come up with a charter." Guo Yuan's strategy, once implemented, Han Lie would be equivalent to six thousand more reserve sergeants, and once the time was ripe, he could incorporate this group of people into the Red Flame Army.

After the meeting, when Han Lie came to the outer courtyard, he saw that the three butchers he had invited had peeled off the skin scales of the white Jiao intact, and were ready to make leather armor after some processing. In addition, the tendon on Bai Jiao's body was also pulled out, although it was only three feet long, but it was extremely tough, and if it was used to make a bowstring, it would definitely be able to create a nine-stone strong bow.

The most precious things on Bai Jiao's body are the skin scales and Jiao tendons, and the rest of the flesh will naturally be cut into pieces of meat by the butcher, and as a reward, it will be distributed to officials at all levels in Licheng, as for the white Jiao's blood, Han Lie had already dried it up when he was in the fishing village, and preserved it with the jade box that stored Tai'a and Gongbu swords at the beginning.

Han Lie didn't care about the white Jiao blood at first, but Xu Sheng's grandfather Xu Bo told Han Lie that Jiaolong had the effect of detoxifying and strengthening the body, and if it could be preserved, it should be of great use.

Hearing Uncle Xu's words, although Han Lie was skeptical, he also understood that blood could not be stored for a long time, and it would quickly deteriorate once it was placed in the air, but when he hesitated, Zhao Yun reminded him: "Lord, I look at the jade box containing the sword, which is made of cold jade, which has the effect of warming and preserving, why not store its white Jiao's blood in it?" ”

After being reminded by Zhao Yun, Han Lie had the mentality of trying it out, and when he was in the fishing village, he put the blood in Bai Jiao's body into the cold jade jade box, and it turned out that this jade box did have a miraculous effect, and it was only three days later, and the blood in the jade box did not coagulate and change color at all, just like the blood that had just been released.

And in the past three days, in order to preserve the white Jiao meat, Han Lie deliberately put the jade box in the white Jiao's corpse, plus it had just entered early summer at this time, and the white Jiao meat had not deteriorated at all due to the cold jade temperature.

For the legendary Bai Jiao, the son of the dragon king, mortals can get rid of all kinds of diseases and prolong life by eating a bite of meat, about such a rumor, the rich families in the city rushed to inquire about the news, hoping that Han Lie could sell it, and even the rich people in the city offered 3,000 yuan to buy a catty, for such rumors, Han Lie did not stop it, nor did he mean to sell Bai Jiao meat.

As for the so-called effects of Jiao meat to prolong life, Han Lie didn't believe it very much, and he didn't take it to heart.

In addition to the officials in the city, Han Lie directly asked Zhao Yun and Xu Huang to take the remaining more than 100 catties of bones and meat to the barracks, and boiled them into soup with ten cauldrons, which was used to reward the soldiers of the Red Flame Army.

Now there are rumors in the city, and the soldiers in the army have naturally heard of it, for the legendary white Jiao meat, who doesn't want to eat a bite, so when they learned that Han Lie actually gave up the price of 3,000 yuan a catty, and also gave these meat to the sergeants to eat, the more than 5,000 sergeants of the Red Flame Army were all grateful, and the morale of the army was boiling for a while, and the voice of swearing allegiance to Han Lie was even more exaggerated in the whole army.

And as Han Lie is the son of the Green Emperor, and the rumors that Bai Jiao, the son of the Dragon King, was killed in the East China Sea, became more and more intense, Han Lie's reputation among the people of Licheng was naturally getting higher and higher, especially a series of benevolent measures in Licheng, which also won the recognition of the people who immigrated.

Taking advantage of this trend, Han Lie took the lead in going to the field and held a grand sacrificial ceremony. Han Lie even took the lead barefoot, drove the ploughing ox, and supported the iron plough in the field for a morning.

Ploughing the field is obviously also a technical job, although Han Lie began to have some hands, but soon under the guidance of the old farmer, he mastered the skills, one morning, Han Lie, who was under the scorching sun on his head, ploughed a few acres of land, and even at noon, he also sat on the field with the old farmer, eating bread and drinking cold water.

Tuntian Governor Guoyuan, engaged in Zheng Yi, engaged in Cheng Bing and other officials, under the leadership of Han Lie, also bowed in the fields, although sweating profusely, but no one complained.

"The old man has lived for sixty years, and he is a good official who works hard for the people like an adult, which is really the only time I have seen in my life." A few villagers in the field, when facing Han Lie at first, were somewhat nervous and hurried, but after noon, Han Lie's approachability had already deeply infected them, and when they sat on the field to eat together at noon, several old people praised Han Lie at the same time, and also sighed from the bottom of their hearts.

"The old man has an overreputation." Han Lie ate the bread, looked at the emaciated old men in front of him, and sighed: "The people of our Han Dynasty are bitter, no matter how hard they work, the harvest and the reward will never be true, although there are many reasons for this situation, but the corruption and inaction of the officials still account for a large proportion, so I hope that the people under my rule can have a piece of tile, have surplus food at home, rely on the old, and learn little, so I have no regrets." ”

"There are tiles, the family has surplus food, the old have something to rely on, and the little to learn. The grand wish of the lord is nothing more than the ancient saints. Guo Yuan stood up movingly and said, "We must do our best to fulfill the great wish of the Lord." ”

"We will do our best to fulfill the Lord's wishes." Zheng Yicheng Bing and others, this will also get up and make a move.

"It's enough to have this heart, why care about these false courtesies." Han Lie waved his hand and said with a smile on his chin.

In the afternoon, when Han Lie was busy working in the fields, when he rode to the canal dam, Xu Sheng had already greeted him, and after listening to the message of the soldiers, Xu Sheng hurriedly came to Han Lie's side and said: "Lord, Wang County sent someone to report, Chen Yuanlong came to visit the lord." ”

"Chen Yuanlong?" Han Lie was surprised, although he didn't know why Chen Deng came, Han Lie was still busy saying, "Lead the horse over and go back to the house immediately." When Xu Sheng beckoned the sergeant to lead the horse, Han Lie raised his voice and said to Guoyuan and the others: "Wang County Cheng sent someone to report, there is something important to deal with, I will go back to the county government first, and you will almost go back, and the other village elders will each reward ten catties of mutton and ten catties of wine." ”

"Thank you, sir." When several villagers heard this, they got up and saluted.

When Han Lie returned to the county government all the way, Wang Bao was entertaining Chen Deng and Hua Tuo who came with him in the side hall, when Han Lie came to the front of the mansion, he was barefoot, and he couldn't even care about wearing shoes, so he ran in: "I don't know that Yuanlong is coming, I miss the welcome, forgive the sin, forgive the sin." ”

"My lord, my lord, shoes ......" Xu Sheng, who followed closely, carried Han Lie's shoes, and chased them all the way to the door of the side hall, but saw that Han Lie was already standing in the lobby, saluting a young scribe, and after a pause, he had to stand at the door.

"Ugh." Seeing that Han Lie was covered in mud and barefoot, he ran in in such a hurry, and when he didn't even have time to wipe the beads of sweat on his forehead, Chen Deng, Hua Tuo and Wang Bao, who were present, all stood up with surprised faces.

"It's a certain abruptness, but it's to disturb General Han." Chen Deng came for a while, and he had already heard from Wang Bao that Han Lie had gone outside the city to participate in the summer cultivation sacrifice, but Han Lie obviously came back from the field in a hurry, and he didn't even have time to put on his shoes, so he broke in.

"I look forward to Yuanlong like a great drought and look forward to Ganlin, a handsome person like Yuanlong, even if he comes to disturb every day, I am willing to be like a gourmet." Han Lie laughed loudly, stepped forward and grabbed his arm and said, "Mr. Yuanlong, please take a seat." ”

"General, please." Chen Deng really didn't expect Han Lie to attach so much importance to himself, and with his feelings, he hurriedly turned sideways and humbly said.
