Chapter 163: Three Reasons
"That's true, we should be up, but we can't easily offend people, let alone reveal our old bottom, this time it's a little eye-catching!" Dong Changhe was also a little worried.
Xue'er rolled her eyes and proposed: "Dad, it's better to give money and invite the villagers and elders to a banquet." Then repair the ancestral hall, and then discuss with Wu Lizheng to build bluestone roads for several surrounding villages.
You can also build a school and merge your grandfather's private school with the private school in Qinjia Village to give it a unified name. ”
A good feast for the countrymen can envelop their hearts.
The renovation of the ancestral hall is also to pay tribute to the ancestors, inform the future generations, and also make the relatives have honor.
That time to go to see the dragon boat race, Xue'er found that the bluestone roads in Changhai County were paved, and they were not as dusty as in the countryside.
Instead of keeping so much gold at home for the thieves to remember, it is better to give back to the township and leave a reputation as a good person.
As for the merger of schools, it is also because neither the private school opened by the grandfather nor the private school in Qinjia Village is a formal school.
The merger can not only give back to the township, but also save those hidden competition, why not?
Without waiting for Dong Changhe to say anything, Yun's stingy illness was committed again, and he said loudly, "How much silver does it cost?" ”
"Lady, do you know how eye-catching those things are today? Even if the things given by the emperor are forgotten, those cannot be easily used and sold, and others dare not worry about them.
But the gold is so eye-catching, we have to spend it on the surface. So Cher's proposal is feasible.
Don't forget what kind of price the King of Youwang gave us to buy those potatoes and sweet potatoes in private!
There are also thousands of acres of land, these benefits are already very eye-catching, and they may not be unknown today. Don't you understand the so-called over-the-top truth? ”
Dong Changhe is not stupid, he is stingy when he talks about it, and he feels distressed when the silver is spent, but compared to his life, the thousand taels of gold are really nothing.
On this day, I went to the study room of the Youwang Mansion in Beijing.
Xuanyuan Che hugged Xiaobai in his arms and said to the jade Yan beside him, "Mo Shijiu, is there any news coming there?" ”
"There's no news yet." Yuyan replied.
"Well, but it's almost time to have news, Lord Cao's rewards are coming down, and those over there are also coming soon." Xuanyuan Che said thoughtfully.
"Your Highness, what reward do you say you will give to Dong Changhe today? And Miss Dong, will there be arrangements today? Yu Yan asked.
"Give Dong Changhe a knighthood, and as for Miss Dong, it is estimated that she will also get the title of a countryman!"
"Knighthood? Also, the yield of potatoes and sweet potatoes is indeed amazing, and with these two crops, people no longer have to be afraid of starvation. "Yu Yan has been following Xuanyuan Che for a long time, and he has not been limited to one acre and three points of land, and his vision has already become very high.
"Our dynasty has always focused on farming, and after decades of war at the end of the previous dynasty, the population plummeted, and although our dynasty has been established for a while, the number of people is still not as large as the number of people in the prosperous period of the previous dynasty.
With these two crops, my father no longer has to worry about people. Therefore, this credit is received by Dong Changhe.
As for that Miss Dong, she is indeed talented, and with the entrustment of this king, her father may not announce to the public that she discovered these two crops.
But the father and the emperor have clear grievances, and the emperor's grandfather also admires those talents who have the people of the world in their hearts the most, so Miss Dong's edict is also a township monarch at the least.
Not to mention that the father and emperor also see the background, the Dong family is the descendant of the former prime minister xxx, with this background as a foreshadowing, it is not an exaggeration to give a county baron. ”
Xuanyuan Che's analysis was the Tao, which made Yu Yan admire and nodded frequently.
What Xuanyuan Che didn't say was that there was a reason why he was so rewarded.
On the one hand, Dong Changhe and Dong Xueer are the descendants of the famous minister Dong XX of the previous dynasty, and rewarding him is to envelop those great Confucians and families who escaped the world in the previous dynasty.
Let them go out of the mountain, rest assured to serve the Daxi Dynasty, and don't miss the previous dynasty.
On the other hand, these two crops are indeed high-yielding, and can be used not only as vegetables, but also as food.
With this fanfare reward, the promotion of potatoes and sweet potatoes will be smooth sailing, and the crops that are recognized today will naturally not have to worry about the poor harvest after planting.
The last is to envelop the military heart of the Feng family's army, you must know that these two crops were found in his fiefdom, and they will be used as part of the Fengjia army's military rations in the future.
Attaching importance to these two crops is to pay attention to the problem of food and clothing for the Feng Jiajun.
The father wanted the Feng family army not only to remember that they were not the Feng family's army, but more importantly, they were ultimately the army of the imperial court.
For a long time, the Fengjia army was supported by the imperial court, and both military salaries and food salaries were provided by the imperial court.
It can be said that Dong Changhe's family can get such a seal because of these three reasons, and they also caught up with this opportunity.
Outside the door, the voice of the servant came: "Your Highness, the little one has something to report." ”
Xuanyuan Che and Yu Yan made a look.
Yuyan pushed the door out and asked, "What's the matter?" ”
"The county lord of Changle is here, and the little one invites him into the flower hall to wait, and then he comes to tell His Highness." The servant replied respectfully.
"Okay, I know, you go down first, tell the maid to serve well, and I'll go back to Your Highness." Yu Yan rolled her eyes and said helplessly.
"No, the little one is leaving."
Yu Yan is annoyed to death, this Changle County Lord doesn't know what's wrong, last year for a period of time no longer came to the door to bother His Highness, and then I don't know why, I want to open it again, and like at the beginning, I went to Youwang's Mansion every once in a while to find His Highness.
She doesn't have anything serious to say, just send some "hand-made" food today, and a set of "hand-sewn" clothes tomorrow.
His Royal Highness is not easy to turn his face with him, and every time he is annoyed and perfunctory.
I don't know what to send this time!
Yu Yan resigned himself to Xuanyuan Che, looking reluctant.
Xuanyuan Che shook his head amusedly, "Okay, don't look like a dead father, just deal with it, just stay here and help me sort out the concerts in various places." ”
Yu Yan showed a smiling face, "No." ”
Xuanyuan Che no longer paid attention to Yu Yan's follower, put down Xiaobai in his arms, and walked out of the study.
In the flower hall, Xuanyuan Che sat at the top, looked at his cousin who was sitting at the bottom of him, and said, "Is there anything wrong with Lord Changle coming this time?" ”
The county lord of Changle showed an aggrieved expression, and seeing that the other party was unmoved, he said coquettishly, "Second cousin, are you impatient to see your cousin!" We are cousins and a family, isn't it natural for me to come to see you? ”
She grabbed the silk handkerchief in her hand, and her beautiful face looked like she wanted to cry without crying.
