The reason why Wang Xibao asked for so many barren mountains and wastelands was not because he wanted to turn those lands into fertile land. Because since she called Shaoguo, she has not put it into practice for one reason or another. Now hearing Wang Xu say this, she is really a little excited.

But Wang Xuguang wants to help the family and she seems to be a little too childish. So he reminded: "Brother Xu'er, this big Si Nong is an official of the imperial court, we can't just think about our family, if we want to do it, we have to do things for the people of the world." ”

Wang Xu nodded heavily and said, "I've thought about this." If I become this big Si Nong, I can not only help my little aunt, but also help more people in the world. And no one did this because the scholars wanted to run in a higher direction, and they looked down on the peasants from the bottom of their hearts, so they refused to do things for the peasants. ”

He seemed to have found confidence and began to gush: "And those peasants know a lot, but they are very few literate. And they don't know how to record some of their experiences and tell them to others and future generations. So a lot of experience is gradually lost in this way. Little aunt, didn't you say that the predecessors planted trees and the descendants enjoyed the shade? If they could tell the world about these experiences, would there be many people who would take fewer detours and take more advantage of the cool? ”

After saying this, Wang Xu blinked his big eyes and looked at Wang Jibao with a look of begging for praise.

"It's great that you can think of that. What else? Wang Jibao still won't be stingy with such praises.

"If I summarize these things and write them into a book, will more people see them? And it won't be lost? ”

Wang Jibao said with a smile on the corner of her mouth: "You think well, it's true." Future generations can also know what crops are in our time by reading the books you wrote. can be used as precious historical materials. Your name can be recited through the ages. ”

"Really?" It's exciting to think about!

"Little aunt can't lie to you! But let's be pragmatic and talk about it now. Have you ever thought about what you need to do if you want to be a big farmer and write a book about farming? ”

Wang Xu thought about it, because he really hadn't been exposed to these, but after having this idea recently, he looked up some books, and there were quite a few things that he could think of. So he shook his head very honestly.

Wang Xibao explained: "If you really want to be a big farmer and write a book, you usually have to go to the fields more often, and visit those experienced old farmers. And you can't just wander around, you need to go all over the country, even the entire Hongwu Continent, to walk around and see. I usually have to try something. For example, the crops in the north are planted in the south, and the crops of other countries are planted in China, and so on. It's not like one or two successes. And this time and two times are not an hour, two hours is so short, it is a year or two years of hard work! So this one is really not as easy as you think, it's that simple. ”

Although it will be very hard, since he has chosen this path, he can't give up no matter how hard and tired he is.

Wang Xu said solemnly: "Little aunt, don't worry, since this is the path I chose myself, no matter how hard and tired I am, I will never give up." ”

Wang Jibao was very pleased and said: "Good job, my little aunt didn't teach you in vain. In addition to what I just said, you also have to ask the farmers what their needs are, and their needs may be the key to whether you can be a good farmer in the future. ”

Wang Xu nodded habitually. But in fact, at this time, he couldn't fully understand what Wang Jibao meant, he only knew that his aunt asked him to do this, which was right.

Wang Jibao saw that Wang Xu didn't understand, so he gave him an example: "As far as I know, the common people like the wind and rain, and the country and the people are safe; I like to plant more land to get more harvests; Those who prefer the fields can pay less taxes; I like to be able to live a life that eats well, dresses well, is slightly richer, and so on. ”

In fact, the common people at this time are really easy to be satisfied. Maybe it's because this year, if you collect three or five more buckets than last year, you will be so happy that you can't sleep.

Wang Xu asked suspiciously: "Are these things that should also be taken care of by a big Si Nong?" Isn't it okay to be a big farmer just lead everyone to plant a good field? ”

Wang Jibao shook his head with a smile and said, "Silly boy, Dasi Nong is not only in charge of the fields, but also the farmers in the fields. Only by managing these farmers well, can they better farm! ”

"Oh, I see!" Wang Xu suddenly realized.

"That's why I said your idea is good, but it's still a little too impulsive, and a little too much to take for granted." Wang Jibao touched Wang Xu's head again with a smile and said, "But the little aunt is very happy, Brother Xu has really grown up." ”

It's just that there is too little social experience, but this can be cultivated slowly.

Wang Xu lowered his head embarrassedly, and then thought of what Wang Xibao said just now, the men of our family must straighten their chests and be people no matter what time they come, so they immediately raised their little chests high.

After Wang Jibao saw Wang Xu's small action, he smiled silently, but he didn't break it.

But he still said what he said before, and it is impossible for him to be a big Si Nong now. If he was determined to take this path, he would first agree to go to the household department to do things.

In the future, Wang Jibao will take out some of the barren mountains and wastelands in his hands to him, the future Dasi Nong, as an experimental base. Whatever he wants to try, he can do it there.

After sending Wang Xu away, Wang Jibao carefully drafted a plan.

When my father and the third brother who was the prime minister came back, I showed them again. After getting their approval, she sent the plan to her father-in-law's desk.

This plan is just some of Wang's preliminary ideas and plans for agriculture. Her focus this time was to set up a special yamen in charge of agriculture in the household department. This yamen can organize agricultural production, vigorously open up wasteland, cultivate seedlings, expand planting, find crops more suitable for the local area, experiment with the planting and cultivation of new crops, and so on.

In addition, Wang Jibao will also continue to build Baoji Money Banks for farmers to borrow money all over the country in his personal name.

This plan caused a huge sensation in the court early the next morning.

They are vast and sparsely populated. There is actually no shortage of land, but there is a lack of good land. While there is land, there is still a shortage of people to plant it. This has become a major obstacle to the development of Shaoguo. In the future, whoever can solve one of these problems will be a great hero of Shaoguo.

Therefore, Wang Xu invisibly walked out of a different life path. Of course, that's an afterthought.

After solving Wang Xu's matter, Wang Jibao took Wang Brown to Zhan Shifu.

After Zhan Shi Su Mingran and Wang Jibao reported on their recent work, they briefly talked about some of her own ideas about the establishment of a good hall in the future.

After hearing this, Wang Jibao nodded in agreement and asked, "Your idea is very good." But have you ever thought about where the money will come from to set up a charity hall? ”

Now, when the female officials of the Zhan Mansion are making plans, they are also required to write down the feasibility and how to implement the plan and some details. So on the issue of money, Su Mingran really thought about it seriously.

So he replied confidently: "Eldest princess, I have thought about it. We can be like the major temples and nunnery, and let the rich people raise donations. ”

Wang Jibao did not immediately express his attitude, but asked very seriously: "Are you planning to let the family donate once?" Or donate for a lifetime? Are you planning to make this good church last a long time? Or is it just a whim, for merit? ”

"Of course, Xia Guan hopes that this matter can be carried out for a long time. As you know, there are a lot of disasters in Shaoguo every year, and it will be a little late if we only raise money or food when the incident happens. Therefore, I think it is best to prepare for everything in advance to prevent problems before they happen. Su Mingran replied seriously.

Wang Jibao agreed: "Your last sentence is very good. It's better to prevent things before they happen than to do them after the fact. There are a lot of so-called benevolent people, but in fact, they are selling their reputation and doing some superficial things. To put it bluntly, those people are doing face-saving projects and buying from the people. Wang Jibao restrained her smile and said seriously: "We can't do that." If you should prepare in advance, you should be well prepared in advance. Once there are signs of a disaster, we will help them in time, and don't always have to delay until the end. In addition, in normal times, you can also help more people in need. ”

In the past, if Wang Jibao really wanted to encourage his own family to contradict those people, he would not let the people who belonged to the same class be scolded to death. At the same time, their family does not have to mix in the same class. But now it's different, she has to do something practical for the people.

"Yes, that's what the lower officials mean if they want to set up a good hall." Su Mingran said respectfully.

"So I said the idea was very good. But as I just asked you, where does the money come from? Do you think it's okay for those rich families to respond to our fundraiser once, but why do people respond to us after that? People have all that spare money, why don't they do good deeds and buy fame for themselves? Why do you want to invest your money in us and let us buy it? People go to temples and nunnery to pay some sesame oil money, and there is a Buddha who can bless people, what can you do for them? ”

Wang Jibao's series of questions made Su Mingran, who was full of confidence, question. Yes, their Zhan Mansion is not a temple or a nunnery, what can they do for those rich families.

Wang Jibao smiled and said, "Otherwise, you can think about it again." Or mobilize the entire Zhan Mansion to think about it. Or you can ask people to ask those who are good friends how they can make people willing to pay for good deeds. ”
