Chapter 107: Irrigation
Ning Hao sat there and thought about it, writing a letter to His Majesty like this is suspected of overstepping his authority, not to mention that the emperor no longer trusts the Ning family so much.
"I want to too, but the three provinces and six ministries don't do anything, and the magistrates haven't reported to the authorities, so I'm a little overstepping my authority." Old Man Ning can't do it, it doesn't mean that other forces in the court can't, but they need to wait a few days, so that it is safer and safer, and the most important thing is that the emperor will not suspect anyone at will.
This is probably the case with national corruption, and the upright officials who thought they were upright would also consider the gains and losses in their careers.
Lu Xiaowan looked at this scene, she couldn't stay any longer, got up and saluted and was about to leave, only the white-faced scholar was still kneeling there.
"I said that this eldest brother, if you have time to kneel here, it is better to go to the fields and help the people pull out the crops buried in the soil, and maybe you can reduce the losses."
After listening to what Lu Xiaowan said, Ning Hao's face was flushed, and he didn't know what to do, so the white-faced scholar also got up, and after Lu Xiaowan left, he went to the field, and thanked Lu Xiaowan when he left.
"At night, the world is as dark as a crow, and I can really understand it today, but I plan to go there myself and see if I can find a way to do something." Lu Xiaowan opened the curtain of the carriage and rolled up her sleeves, the hair behind her was too long and uncomfortable.
It was difficult to comment on this matter at night, so I drove the carriage to Zhengjia Village, almost everyone was pulling their crops in the field, and no one surrounded Lu Xiaowan's field.
"There should be nothing to do in our family, but these fields are all buried, and there are still places where all the grass and leaves seem to have been uprooted."
The situation seemed to be better than expected, but the crying from the field still made Lu Xiaowan feel a little guilty, "Why did you let me know these things early?" ”
[The system has equipped you with the basic self-help manual you need, please check it as soon as possible!] 】
Even if I had an expectation in my heart, when all this came, I still felt that I was walking in purgatory, and the feeling that the strength in my body was slowly being exhausted was getting stronger and stronger, and how these people would survive the winter in the devastated land would become a new problem.
After opening the manual in my heart, I found that it was a new irrigation technology, and it was also equipped with some mechanical instructions, in short, it was not very friendly to Lu Xiaowan, and even more so for ordinary people.
"Do you think this is easy to build?" The nameless fire began to devour Lu Xiaowan's reason, obviously everything could have a better development, but it happened because everything could not be changed.
[For ancient craftsmen, this thing is not difficult to build, the sand is buried in the crops, not food, what you should do is to rearrange it all, and then help them! ] 】
The disappearance of reason made these words extremely harsh, and Lu Xiaowan's expression of collapse made Yetian a little worried, thinking that she was frightened by the scene in the field, and hurriedly comforted her.
"Don't worry! As far as I know, the government of previous dynasties has its own arrangements for such things, and tax cuts and subsidies will come down! Ye Tian didn't believe what he said, but now he said it in the most gentle tone, and his face was a little unnatural, and he didn't even take back his hand that touched Lu Xiaowan.
"I'm not scared, I'm just thinking about such a situation, how to change it, don't worry!" After a short period of venting, Lu Xiaowan seems to have grown up and has new ideas about some things in the past. "Yetian, let's go back first, tomorrow the government will have a report on the disaster, you go and copy a copy to me, and then we will make some preparations, it is inevitable that there will be some displaced people or something."
Lu Xiaowan, who didn't want to rely on Xue Muyan, was also very passive at this time, because the silver left on her body was limited, only food, and it would be difficult to buy some innocent girls at that time.
After counting the money left on his body, he recorded all the grain, whether it was coarse grain or fine grain, adding it together, and it was no problem to persist for ten days and half a month.
"Girl, when did our family have so much food, why doesn't my mother know?" This is a very remote place in the house, and it was used by Lu Xiaowan to hide food, so it was normal for Qin Cuihua not to know.
"I watched the sky at night and knew that there would be a disaster, so I stocked up on food in advance, whether it was for my own food or to help the victims!"
Having said that, the worry in her heart was still fermenting, and it seemed that something bad was brewing, but Lu Xiaowan couldn't say what kind of thing it would be.
Autumn came as promised, and I thought that the disaster would be over, but the weather was getting drier and drier, and after the wind and sand, many rice and crops were dried and half dead, and the system had already given a hint that there was no hope for these crops if they were not saved.
"There is no problem with the food of the Lu family at all, could it be that this food is protected by demon law?" As soon as these words came out, the villagers looked at their fertile fields, and the atmosphere instantly climaxed, and they all said that Lu Xiaowan's crops were pulled.
Lu Dayou was originally a stupid person, and it was useless to say anything about being scolded when he was surrounded by so many people.
"A bunch of old things, is my family's food coveted by you? As for your lazy appearance, your field has been watered several times, and you have to compare with our family when you do it like this, are you worthy? Lu Zhang really couldn't stand the stupid man in his family, so he pinched his waist and scolded the women.
Some of the people inside are indeed not diligent in the field, and they can't resist even if they are scolded, but there are also some people who are very diligent and water every day, but those things in their fields are still close to destruction.
"Otomo's family, what about my family, watering every day, it's not like this bear, your family either gives an explanation today, or just wait for us to shovel it all for you, anyway, we can't let you harm our family's things." The old woman cried as she spoke, as if Lu Dayou had robbed their family of food.
Lu Zhang's family doesn't eat this set, you can cry, it's not that I can't cry, it's better than anyone's kung fu, right, in this case, who is afraid of whom!
"Killed by the sky, my man is busy working in the field, my little sister invited so many people to take care of her own field, and she sent her ancestors to provide it, how did it become a disaster for other people's fields, there is no Tianli Wang Law here!"
Lu Zhang's ass sat on the ridge, and all the tears came down at once, and his face was even redder, as if he had been bullied.
When the old woman saw that the other party's combat power had increased dramatically, she was not to be outdone, and she also cried and scolded after a while.
Qin Cuihua was making clothes for her daughter, but she didn't expect that the people in the village didn't knock on the door, and broke in directly.
"Auntie, something happened, Brother Otomo blocked the field, and they said they were going to shovel your field." Da Niu was out of breath when he spoke, Qin Cuihua knew that something was wrong as soon as she guessed, put down her clothes, and shouted in the courtyard, Lu Xiaowan was directly startled.
"Girl, someone wants to move our family's field, you come down quickly." Yetian listened to the news and jumped off the roof directly, went to the yard to set up the carriage, and after finishing it, he directly loaded the people and returned to Zhengjia Village.
Before I arrived, I saw a large number of people in Wuyang, holding hoes and shovels, making trouble at the ridge, Lu Zhang's crying voice could be heard from any distance, Lu Xiaowan heard this voice, could it be that her sister-in-law had really changed her character.
"Get out of the way, what are you doing?" Lu Xiaowan pulled away from the people, and was a little surprised when she saw the things in the ground, each of them was growing so well, no wonder it would cause a riot. "Uncles, if you have something to say, when you get this guy in the field, are you planning to fight?"
They are all people from Zhengjia Village, and they always have to have a name for what they do, although Li Zheng is embarrassed, he is also puzzled by the things in Lu Xiaowan's field, after all, everyone's crops this year are all wilted, and the thieves of his family are good, who is not red-eyed!
"Xiaowan, Uncle has something to say, the things in your field are really evil, you can't blame us, but if it's a little worse, we have nothing to say, but this is too good!"
The old woman who was crying just now, when she heard that the chief also thought so, the demonic energy on her body came, and without saying a word, she planned to pull the cabbages of her family.
"What do you think is a big deal? So that's it, have you watered it thoroughly? In our family, I asked to water it in the morning and evening, and I said that the rice was almost ripe, and when the pulp was laid, there was no water, so what could it do? There is also this dish, our family needs it every day, without watering water fertilizer, how to grow up, uncle, we have something to say! ”
When she was just along the road, Lu Xiaowan took a simple look, basically doing it, and there was a big reason, that is, they didn't know how to farm at all, and many methods were used incorrectly, which also meant that the output of grain was not high.
"There's no problem with that, but you also know, whose water is coming sooner or later, and it's not right to use the river!"
The governor understands what he means, doesn't he just want Lu Xiaowan to share something to give the big guy a good year, but who will have a good year this year, Lu Xiaowan is no exception, after the drought, the price of food has skyrocketed, as far as the ones she has in her tun are estimated to be less than enough for a month in winter, she is also counting on it!
"Uncle, I don't know whose water is in this river, but I didn't say it upstream, I didn't talk about it downstream, I have a lot of water in this field, how can I get to you, I have to pay for watering!" This opening is opened, and in the future, Lu Xiaowan will not have enough treasury for these people, so it must be stopped.
At this time, Lu Xiaowan's face gradually lost her smile, and she didn't even bother to show her expression, and the chief was also anxious, after all, she didn't say that the tax cut was not this year.
"Xiaowan, this, do you have to let me make it clear?"
