Entering the middle of March, spring ploughing is basically over. Yuan Ning went out and quietly took a look, and the field was thriving.

The peasants who had finished spring ploughing were not idle, and under the organization of the government, they dug canals and ponds.

Canals can bring water from distant rivers for easy irrigation.

In addition to storing water, the pond can also be used for aquaculture.

There are also many villages with a little financial resources who have followed up with the request to see if they can set aside land for mulberry planting.

The imperial court encouraged land reclamation.

There are also some mulberry trees in the area, but the number is not large and the quality is not very good.

It is not enough to have mulberry trees, but also to have excellent silkworm seeds.

This matter was reported layer by layer, and Nanchuan found Yu Jingze and discussed the matter with him.

Yu Jingze didn't say anything: "Of course I can help, but the cost is not low." Planting mulberry trees is not an empty word, what do I mean, you have made all the preliminary preparations, I will contact you again, if you don't have enough money here, everything is empty talk. ”

He has money, but his money is exchanged for his life, and he can support his friends without any interest, but he can't give it to irrelevant people like this.

He knows that people's desires are bottomless, and if you help this one and don't help the next one, you will be considered to have done something before to gain fame and reputation, and even have a worse evaluation.

Thankless work, he would never do.

Nanchuan felt that he could handle this matter well, but in view of the extraordinary talent shown by Yuan Ning before, he still showed these things to Yuan Ning in writing.

Yuan Ning can't write well, and it's no problem to recognize words. After reading it carefully several times and thinking about it for a long time, I found Nanchuan: "The information you have collected is very complete, not only the environment in which the mulberry tree grows, but also the soil situation on our side."

"I don't have anything to pick, it's just that the soil quality of our Tianqing County is not good, since we want to do a big job, don't be perfunctory.

"How much land has been reclaimed? After the grass is burned, scatter all the grass ash into the ground, collect some livestock manure, and mix it with a small amount of quicklime......"

Speaking of this, she paused, "That's it, I'll be responsible for this matter." ”

It is not only necessary to ensure that the land is sufficiently fertilised, but also to have strong resistance to pests and diseases, so as not to be infected with pests and diseases as soon as the mulberry trees that have been bought at a large price are landed.

Nanchuan was embarrassed, "But this expenditure is not a few." Now the money that the villagers have put together is only 200 taels, and it is still raised by the people of the entire township. ”

Yuan Ning frowned and thought for a long time, "I didn't want to get involved in the silk industry so soon, but things caught up, and there was no reason to stand idly by."

"You go and tell someone, let's jointly manage this mulberry garden, I will take the big lead, they will make the small head, and when the time comes, the dividends will be distributed according to the proportion of money invested, what do you think?"

Nanchuan thought seriously for a while, "Okay, I'll draw up the detailed rules for this matter, and then discuss it with them, if they agree, let's move on to the next step." ”

As he spoke, a muffled thunder sounded outside.

The two of them walked out and looked up at the sky, and at some point, the dark clouds rolled and the sky had changed.

Nanchuan hurriedly said goodbye, "Madam, there are still a lot of things outside, I will retire first." ”

Yuan Ning stood in the courtyard, looking at the sky with his hands in his hands, everything was going well in Tianqing County, but he didn't know how Su Heting was doing now......

Of course, Su Heting has already entered Beijing.

Although there were some twists and turns along the way, it was generally smooth, and they arrived in Gyeonggi on the sixth day of the second month, and after a day of rest, they entered the capital.

Let Su Heting go to the post house to rest temporarily, and the Qin messengers will go non-stop to hand over the errand.

That night, Su Heting received the holy decree of His Majesty.

This is not the first time he has met you, and the last time he passed the exam, he also had a chance to meet His Majesty. At that time, he was in the limelight.

Before entering the palace, he underwent a strict security check to confirm that he did not have any safety hazards on him.

It's just that during the inspection, the little eunuch in charge of the body search accidentally tore the official robe on Su Heting's body with a "snort".

The little eunuch was so frightened that his hands shook, and he didn't use much force!

Su Heting waved his hand absentmindedly, "Is there a needle and thread?" ”

The little eunuch went to ask around, and finally borrowed the needle and thread from an inconspicuous little palace maid, but Su Heting's county official robe was cyan, while the thread carried by the little palace maid was pink, so the neat stitches were particularly conspicuous when they appeared on the robe.

The little eunuch's face was red, "Su ...... Master Su, you don't have a spare robe? ”

Generally speaking, in order to prevent accidents, people will bring two sets of clothes when they enter the palace.

Su Heting shook his head calmly, but comforted the little eunuch: "Little father-in-law, please rest assured, if Your Majesty treats me for the crime of untidy appearance, it has nothing to do with you." ”

"No...... the little eunuch's face turned even redder, "I'm ......"

But the inside had already urged Su Heting to hurry up and see His Majesty, and the little eunuch had no other way, so he hurriedly went to return the needle and thread, and led Su Heting, who had sewed his clothes, to go inside.

While walking, Su Heting also whispered: "Don't worry, if you make up for it in an inconspicuous place, it may not be discovered." ”

The little eunuch tugged at the corners of his lips, and now it's over, let it be fate!

The emperor of the dynasty is the third emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty, a hundred years later, the temple name "Wen", now still reigning, the year name Xuande, tentatively called Emperor Xuande.

Emperor Xuande was middle-aged, he was a good emperor who worked hard, because the first two emperors pacified the country and determined the country by force, so when Emperor Xuande governed the country, he adopted the spirit of Huang Lao, so that the people of the world could recuperate, and took a series of measures to benefit the people.

He has a generous personality and is good at taking advice.

But there is also a shortcoming, that is, it is not decisive enough, and some decisions may seem to be a bit of a woman's kindness.

The summoning place was in the south study, and Emperor Xuande was accompanied by Su Dezhao.

The little eunuch sent Su Heting to the door of the south study and stopped, and naturally the eunuch who was waiting inside came to pick him up.

But the eunuchs who were able to enter the south study were no one else except the eunuch Bingbi. As for the guards, those on the bright side are waiting outside, and the secret guards are all in places that others can't see.

So the huge south study looks a little empty.

Su Heting Mountain shouted long live, kneeling three times and knocking nine times.

Emperor Xuande smiled slightly, and his eyes were gentle: "Su Aiqing, let's be flat." Speaking of which, I haven't seen you for two or three years. ”

Su Heting got up slowly, stood with his hands down, didn't dare to raise his head, and replied respectfully: "Yes, Weichen has been an official in the local government for the third year. ”

Emperor Xuande knew the relationship between him and Su Dezhao, glanced at Su Dezhao with a smile, and instructed the eunuch: "Give the seat." ”
