Chapter 78: A Bodhisattva Living in the World
"Daddy, do you really want to be the captain? Although this position has rights, but also has responsibilities, it is like this great drought, if you don't have a certain ability, you will be pulled off the horse, and even the head on the neck is not guaranteed. ”
Tian Panyan wanted her father to understand the trick and not fail the villagers by inaction after deciding to sit in this position, so before his father decided to run for election, he gave him a preventive shot.
Seeing his daughter looking at herself with a heavy heart, Tian Yougui was very moved in his heart, his daughter was still filial.
But when he thought that in the past, his daughter would risk her life three times and twice for that Dongfang Yuanlong, just because of his inaction, he almost didn't hesitate at all, so he nodded: "Yes, your father I really want to be the lieutenant governor, and not only want to be the lieutenant governor, but if there is a chance, he will be a bigger official in the future." ”
Tian Panyan also thought that his father was bound to gain power, and he was also a person who liked power very much, but it didn't matter, as long as he figured it out himself.
Daddy's heart is kind, no matter what he does, he raises his hands in approval.
If Yuanhang is here now, he will definitely see the light on his father's face is the same as when he decided to study, he is so resolute, and he wants to protect his loved ones.
The lieutenant chief, who was elected as the person with the highest contribution to the people, because of Ziyunmai, Tian Yougui, who had made sufficient preparations in the early stage, became the lieutenant governor with a high vote of 800 votes.
Tian Panyan was very happy, he didn't expect that he had made this small decision he made, and he would be able to make his father the governor, so it would be much easier to promote Ziyunmai in the future.
In this year's drought, many people died in Liaoxi Kingdom, and officials from all over the country wrote to the imperial court, asking the imperial court to send grain, so that they could get through this difficulty.
The emperor was also worried about this matter, but he didn't expect that the heavens were not beautiful, and this year there was a great drought, so many people could not eat the fields, there was no harvest in the fields, the court had no taxes, not to mention, a large number of people starved to death, and the population dropped sharply.
The strength of a country, the population plays a key factor, a good emperor attaches great importance to the population, and the population has decreased sharply, which is obviously not a phenomenon that the emperor wants to see.
When he heard that no one in Zhaohe Village had starved to death in such a severe drought weather, and that the situation was even better than in previous years, and that the taxes could be paid as usual, the emperor's eyes lit up, and the village officials of this village seemed to have some ability, and decided to send people to see how they fought the drought.
The emperor sent the minister to Ningshan Town, and learned that there was a plant of purple cloud wheat in the vicinity, which could grow in times of drought and fill people's stomachs.
Although the emperor was haunted by the fact that so many people had died in the country, he was happy to see that there were still people who could fight drought by themselves, discover a brand new plant, and save so many people.
I didn't expect my country to have such a talent and cultivate such a good drought-resistant plant, which is simply for the benefit of all sentient beings.
The emperor looked at the Ziyun wheat seeds that the minister brought back, and instructed the kitchen to use them to make his own Ziyun wheat buns and Ziyun wheat dumplings.
Originally, the emperor thought that he could fill his stomach, but it was great to be able to barely fill his stomach, and it was already for the benefit of all sentient beings, but he didn't expect this thing to eat in his mouth, and his lips and teeth were fragrant, so that people took a bite and wanted to eat again. This thing is even better than the white rice!
No wonder it's so popular.
At present, the disaster situation is critical, and the imperial court not only has to send food to help the people, but also thinks about how to help the people tide over the current difficulties.
Emperor Zhu Pi waved and made a decision:
Purchased Ziyun Wheat from Ningshan Town at a high price, used these Ziyun Wheat as seeds, and transported them to all parts of Liaoxi Country, some of them were planted, and some of them were eaten, so that they could all tide over the difficulties.
The emperor's move not only met his own wishes, but also met the needs of the people, and more importantly, met Tian Panyan's requirements.
Because of the emperor's high-priced purchase, the villagers who planted the first batch of Ziyunmai in Ningshan Town got a lot of money.
It is precisely because they listened to Tian Yougui's words that they have so much money, and those who take the opportunity to buy seeds with Tian Yougui when they see that the signs are wrong make the most money, and they can even use the money to buy a few houses in the town to start a business.
Suddenly, the villagers of several villages near Ningshan Town were grateful to Tian Yougui, and it was precisely because their lieutenant was so capable that they were able to take them to make a fortune.
You know, it's just that the seeds of the first batch of Ziyun wheat are valuable, and when the first batch of seeds are planted and there is a harvest, this thing will be popularized, and everyone can eat it, so naturally it is not rare, and no one will buy it at a high price.
People from several villages near Ningshan Town spontaneously put forward a decision when they sang praises to Tian Yougui every day:
Treat Tian Yougui as a bodhisattva.
This decision was supported by most families in Ningshan Town, and they were willing to donate a little money from the sale of Ziyun Wheat to a temple, and in this temple, there was a Bodhisattva living in the world, Tian Yougui.
Tian Panyan stood in front of the temple of this "living Bodhisattva" at this moment, and saw that there was only one statue in the temple, which was the statue of his father Tian Yougui, carved vividly, with a smile and a smile to look at all beings, and the people who came here to worship came in and out, in an endless stream, and it was in full swing.
Seeing them kneeling on the mat reverently and bowing to the statue of their father, Tian Panyan didn't know what words to use to describe this kind of touching, she only felt that there seemed to be a warm current in her heart, in this life, she finally let her family live a better life than before through her own hands.
It turns out that this feeling of being loved and respected by others is like the heart being covered by a hot towel, and finally not feeling cold.
It turns out that this is what it feels like to help others, and this is the kind of experience that you get rewarded for helping others.
Dongfang Yuanlong put a cloak on Tian Panyan, then turned to her, tied her personally, and said to her: "Pan'er, I have seen the grand occasion here with my own eyes, and now I can finally rest assured, right?" ”
"Longlong, I didn't expect that the villagers would be so crazy that they actually helped my father build a statue and still kneel here." Tian Panyan's eyes were moist, as if a grain of sand had entered, she rubbed her eyes and said to Dongfang Yunlong.
"This is your credit, you have done this well with your own actions, and you deserve to be praised. This move has benefited the common people, and no amount of reward can be overstated. Dongfang Yuanlong helped Tian Panyan tie his cloak and said to Tian Panyan.
In fact, what Dongfang Yuanlong didn't say was that in the future, after the Ziyun wheat was harvested, I am afraid that there would be a greater reward above.
