Chapter 13: The Crossing Peasant Girl Is Crossing (13)
Yun Songhai told him what happened in the court today, and Yun Bai was very surprised when he heard it.
frowned and said, "Grandpa, although this woman is out of line, if the hybrid rice is really successful, then don't we set up a big enemy?" ”
Yun Songhai smiled slightly, the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes looked very kind: "Look at the situation first, send someone to keep an eye on the point, if it doesn't succeed, we don't need to make a move, if it succeeds, then find a way to destroy it." ”
Yun Bai nodded and smiled, but he thought it was safer to send someone to kill Jiang Mi now, so that he would have no worries.
The initiative is still in your own hands to rest assured.
Inside the teahouse,
Jiang Ling took Jiang Mi to a simple and elegant teahouse and ordered someone to serve a pot of green tea.
"You taste it, the tea taste is clear and refreshing."
Jiang Mi took a shallow sip: "Indeed." ”
In fact, the tea leaves of the Qianguo Kingdom are all salted, unlike most of the tea leaves in later generations are fried, so the taste is a little strange, and some astringent and too strong.
Thinking of these, Jiang Mi felt that it was time to develop the industries of the original owner to the capital, but in the capital, where every inch of land is valuable, if there is no backstage, I am afraid that there will be no scum left to be eaten.
Jiang Ling: "Where is Miss Tao?" ”
Jiang Mi: "Yan Province." ”
"It's a good place, surrounded by mountains, many waters, and very high yields of grain, good mountains and good water produce good people, no wonder Miss Tao can find hybrid rice."
Jiang Mi nodded, praising her for accepting it, there was nothing unbearable.
Jiang Ling: "Then what should we do next?" ”
In fact, he also has a charter in his heart, but the person in charge of hybrid rice is Jiang Mi, he is just here to assist her, and Jiang Ling is still very clear about his position.
Jiang Mi picked up the teacup, touched his lips slightly and put it down, he still didn't like the taste, it seemed that he would have to do tea business in the future.
"Tomorrow, I will go to a few nearby villages to gather some villagers, and the thousand acres of fertile land will be reclaimed again, and the water source will be irrigated......"
Jiang Mi said all his expectations, and then asked, "Is there anything else that Lord Jiang needs to add?" ”
"Listen to Miss Tao's arrangement." The main thing is that there really is nothing to add, similar to what he originally thought.
After the two discussed, they left the teahouse, and Jiang Mi returned to the post station.
Although it is an official post station, it is better than an ordinary inn, but Jiang Mi still feels uncomfortable falling asleep, and in the end, when he has money, he will definitely buy a big mansion by himself.
The Tao family is still rich in Linghe County, but they are nothing in the capital.
In the early morning of the next day, Jiang Mi had already followed Jiang Ling and others with the soldiers to the western suburbs of the thousand acres of fertile fields, which may not be so intuitive to say, but when they really saw it, it was really magnificent.
Jiang Mi: "You go and gather the villagers first, remember not to use force." ”
After they left, Jiang Mi took Jiang Ling to check the situation of these fields.
These fertile fields are still good, the soil is moist, and there is a small lake nearby, but it is still difficult and labor-intensive to irrigate so much land.
He whispered, "I still have to make a waterwheel." ”
With the waterwheel, dig some canals so that the water between heaven and earth can flow to each other, so that the irrigation problem can be solved.
Jiang Ling: "What? ”
Jiang Mi: "I have an idea to make it easier to irrigate land. ”
Saying that, Jiang Mi asked people to take a pen and paper and draw the structure of the waterwheel, in fact, the structure of the waterwheel is not complicated, the difficulty is to go through the idea.
Jiang Ling took it in surprise: "It looks very exquisite, if it can be done, it will definitely be a good thing for the people and the country!" ”
After saying that, he hurriedly ran away, presumably to let the craftsman make the waterwheel.
Jiang Mi walked to the lake, cast a simple spell with her right hand, and a ball of clear water in the lake appeared in her palm, floating in mid-air, condensing but not dissipating.
This is the royal object in the Ten Thousand Souls, in the original world she rarely used this spell, because it was not very useful, and it consumed spiritual power, in that world where spiritual power was scarce, spiritual power can be used to prolong life is the biggest effect.
But this world doesn't seem to be so laborious, the spiritual power is a little richer than the original world, and the suppression doesn't seem to be so great.
It's just such good conditions, but no one in this plane cultivates spiritual power.
He smiled, his fingertips popped out, and a drop of water shot out, breaking the tiny branches of the trees beside him.
This force can't kill people, at most it's a little painful.
It was only at noon that the soldiers arrived in the western suburbs with a huge crowd of hundreds of villagers.
After Jiang Mi had lunch prepared for them, he arranged for them to start cultivating the fertile land.
But after they worked for an hour or two, Jiang Mi found out that the villagers were not motivated.
The official family summoned them and couldn't refuse, but when they heard that there was a salary of 30 yuan, they were very willing to come.
However, in their opinion, the left and right sides are the same salary, so it is the same to do less and be lazy.
So now there are many villagers who are grinding foreign labor, lazy and lazy work, it is too difficult to progress like this, although the emperor does not stipulate a time limit, but the time is too long, it will definitely be unfavorable to her.
Calling the leader of the five military camps, Jiang Mi asked him to call everyone over.
After the crowd gathered, Jiang Mi shouted: "Now I want to announce a good news to you, from today onwards, you will compete for every five people as a group, whoever cultivates the fertile land will be rewarded at most, the first place will increase by thirty yuan per person per day, the second place will be twenty wen, and the third place will be ten points." ”
For the rich people in the capital, this amount of money is nothing, but for the villagers who rely on the sky for food, this amount of money is still very considerable.
So as soon as she finished speaking, it caused a strong discussion among everyone.
Jiang Mi: "These soldiers will conduct the audit, there will be a competition every day, and the salary will be settled once every ten days." ”
Closing once a day is too time-consuming.
Next, everyone's enthusiasm was really mobilized, and everyone wanted to be the current three, and they all saved up enough energy to work.
Within a few days, the fertile land was almost reclaimed, and the waterwheel was built, which immediately came in handy.
During this time, Jiang Mi has been looking for suitable seeds, and according to the rice varieties she now has, she can also breed hybrid rice with higher yields than existing rice.
But it's still not enough, so it's still going to be searching.
A month later, Jiang Mi finally found a suitable rice variety and found an opportunity to enter the palace to meet the emperor.
Of course, I also brought gifts.
The accompanying eunuch smiled and said, "Shennongnu, come in with the miscellaneous family." ”
Jiang Mi walked in without squinting, Ji Xun was reviewing the folds, his eyes squinted, and he looked very tired.
Jiang Mi bowed slightly: "Weichen greets the emperor." ”
Ji Xun raised his head: "I don't see you kneeling." ”
