Chapter 139: He Doesn't Worry Anymore
Yu Yan didn't dare to joke too much, and said with a glance: "A family like the Dong family is definitely an alternative in a place like the countryside." ”
"Oh?" Xuanyuan Che was served by Yu Yan to take off his boots and wash his feet, and Yu Yan continued while he was busy, "This Dong family's ancestors are from a family, although they were hidden in the mountains and forests early, but the things in their bones have not been lost. ”
"Go on." Xuanyuan Che's tone was flat, but there was a faint expectation.
"Ordinary people only care about small things like oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea, and the Dong family is struggling to revive the former court.
Although Dong Changhe is sleek and has some sophistication, he is not without foresight, sleek but not flattering, sophisticated but not disgraceful, romantic but not obscene, versatile but not arrogant.
As for his lady, although she was not very good-looking, she was not a cowardly little family, and she was a little mean, but she was not vicious. As for Miss Dong......"
Yu Yan paused deliberately, sensing the feet of the master in his hand and paused, before he continued, "It's not like an ordinary peasant child." The little one thinks that she will be a beauty who will captivate the country and the city when she grows up, and she is also a rare beauty!
And she gives people a sense of affinity, harmlessness and drifting with the crowd on the surface, but she is definitely a backbone and successful person on the inside.
Miss Dong always deliberately lowers her sense of presence, tries to treat herself as a spectator, and doesn't want everyone to pay attention to her......
The small ones are also a little bad, in short, they are not worse than those young ladies of the family!"
Yu Yan has been by his side since he was a child, and he is a person who observes people in detail. Xuanyuan Che trusts him very much, and likes to say something to him.
Today, he had no intention of going to Dong's house, and he had no intention of knowing this family, which aroused his curiosity.
He still knows a little bit about Lord Cao's temperament, he is a person who does not want to do much, and what can arouse his interest is those crops, but he lived in the Dong family for a while, and after he went back, he introduced the Dong family in detail, and even emphasized Miss Dong.
Although Lord Cao didn't talk much today, there was no lack of words to speak for Miss Dong.
This is a violation of the norm, including Feng County's order, intentionally or unintentionally, speaking for Dong Changhe and paving the way for Miss Dong.
It can be seen that Dong Changhe has done a lot of things during this period, and Miss Dong has also entered their eyes.
What is the reason? Xuanyuan Che fell into deep thought......
There was nothing to say all night, and Xue'er got up early before dawn the next day, washed up under Qiao'er's service, took care of herself, and finished her morning meal with Yun and Dong Chengze.
Yun and Aunt Lu were busy with things for a day, and Xue'er took Dong Chengze to start studying.
Dong Chengze didn't have any more nightmares at night, and Mo Yan also returned to normal, waiting for Dong Chengze to learn characters.
Last night, Xuanyuan Che had already sent his subordinates to the county government to contact Feng County's order, and today Dong Changhe did not go to work, but continued to take Youwang and his party to the wasteland.
When Feng Xianling and his entourage arrived at the wasteland, Dong Changhe was taking Youwang and Lord Cao to check the water source of the wasteland.
There are two naturally formed ponds on this more than 4,000 acres of wasteland, and the area of the ponds is nearly 100 acres, and there are reeds that are taller than a person.
In spring, the pond becomes a habitat for wild ducks and geese.
The water in the pond is formed by flowing down from the Jiupan Mountain, and the two ponds are not far away, so they can be dug up and made one.
Dong Changhe plans to clean up this pond and use it for irrigation farmland, and also plans to plant lotus roots in it and raise some fish, shrimp and crabs.
There are some wild fish in the pond itself, and all you can see are small and small.
The ponds are remote, overgrown and deep, so few people come here to catch fish, so they also fatten the fish here.
"The water source here is good, there is the Jiupan River in the west, there are these two ponds in the middle, and there is a small stream in the west, so there is no problem in irrigating the land." Lord Cao sighed.
Dong Changhe said with a smile: "At the beginning, Feng County Ling brought a letter from His Royal Highness, and he asked the students to choose the wasteland by themselves. I took a fancy to two places, not far from Dongjia Village, both of which have their own advantages and disadvantages, and finally the students chose this place, mainly because the soil and water source here are much better than that one.
Originally, the students planned to develop for two years, and then I bought the remaining wasteland here, but I didn't expect His Highness to give them to the students for free!"
"There are a lot of wastelands like this in the north, and if they can be reclaimed, there are countless fertile fields, and they are not much worse than the Central Plains!" Lord Cao sighed.
"At the beginning, His Royal Highness also heard that the virtuous brother used the wasteland to grow potatoes, so he gave the wasteland to his feet."
"Compared with those state cities in the south, our state cities in the north are still too few, and most of them are uninhabited. The king has always had a wish that the North will one day be as prosperous as the South.
Cities are built next to each other, and cities are connected to states.
In the future, even if it can't become a land of fish and rice, if you can have surplus food every year, and be self-sufficient, the king will be content.
But I didn't expect that this king had only been in the domain for a year, and he had such a new discovery, and it seems that it is not far from this king's goal!" Xuanyuan Che sighed.
Everyone knows that as long as there is food, the population will grow, with the population, the urban and rural areas will develop and grow, and if there are people, there will be soldiers who can garrison the frontier, so it will not be a problem to hold the thousands of miles of rivers and mountains of the Daxi Dynasty.
What's more, there is not much else in the north, but there is a lot of wasteland, almost as much as there is.
Feng Jiajun's military salary in these years has relied on salt farms and imperial court supplies, and the grain has also been transferred from the south.
Now he doesn't have to worry anymore.
At this time, Xuanyuan Che, the king of You, was still a little young, although he had a city government, but compared with those old and cunning royal people, he was still a little immature, and it was easy to reveal his thoughts.
He basically didn't know anything about agriculture, and what he knew was also temporarily supplemented when he was preparing for the feudal domain.
When I arrived in the fiefdom, I had more contact, and I understood more little by little.
A few people were talking, and two people came in the distance, Dong Changhe's sharp eyes saw it early, and took the initiative to meet him, Shi Li said, "The student has seen Master Feng and Master Feng. ”
"Don't be polite in Changhe, you and I are not outsiders." Feng Xianling smiled and returned the salute.
"Lord Xie, yesterday His Royal Highness went to the county office, and was attracted by the cherry blossom forest of the student's house, so he stayed. The students were afraid that the hospitality would not be good, but fortunately, the adults and the master came over today, and they also mentioned a lot of students. ”
Yesterday, he learned that the young man in front of him was His Royal Highness King You, and he privately asked Lord Cao if he wanted to notify Feng County Order immediately? Lord Cao said that everything was subject to the arrangement of King You, and he did not send anyone there, but it was still necessary to explain.
