"Boom!"

It's early summer, and it's finally raining.

Fei Rulan lay on Zhao Han's chest, looking at the heavy rain outside the window. She finally knew what it meant to be like glue, and she always wanted to be tired of being with the person next to her pillow, but she had already shouted twice, but she was still reluctant to get up to eat.

"Husband, what do you want?" Fei Rulan moved her body, her head resting on Zhao Han's arm.

Zhao Han sighed: "This rain is really damn good...... It's hard to put into words. ”

Fei Rulan asked curiously: "Isn't there a spring drought all the time?" Isn't it good to rain? ”

Zhao Han explained: "Last year, there was a military disaster, and a lot of winter wheat was replanted, and now it is flowering and pollination, and when it rains, the yield will definitely be reduced. And the wheat sown in time should be harvested in a few days, and this strong wind and rain will easily make the ripe wheat lodging. I hope it won't rain for several days in a row, otherwise this year's summer grain harvest will be at least three or four percent. ”

"You thief is really tired, and you are worried about the drought and the rain." Fei Rulan sighed.

Zhao Han said helplessly: "In the past, one person was full, and the whole family was not hungry. Now I have tens of thousands of people under my command, and I have to think about their stomachs. ”

Wheat is also to be grown in the south, especially in Zhao Han's territory, where there are many dry fields, and wheat is the main summer grain crop.

Seeing that Zhao Han was lying on the bed and was restless, Fei Rulan sat up and said, "Get up and eat." ”

"Kiss one and get up." Zhao Han suddenly smiled.

"Not dear." Fei Rulan lay down again, turned her back to Zhao Han, and her eyes turned into crescent moons.

Zhao Han pounced and gnawed for a long time, and finally got up tired and crooked, and went out to eat hand in hand.

It rained for three days in a row, and the water level in the river rose back and overflowed to the shore.

The next few days were rainy and cloudy.

The rain was not heavy, but there were always a few scattered, which made Zhao Han lose his hair.

After a meeting and discussion, Zhao Han issued an order: "The wheat planted by the villagers back to their hometowns will definitely fail in a large area this year." Mr. Li, Fei Chun, the grain store should be prepared, and the grain borrowed by the villagers in difficulty can not be repaid for the time being. From June to the autumn grain harvest, during these months, all the borrowed grain is interest-free! The landlord will pay interest on the grain deposits, and he would rather lose some. ”

"Understood!" Li Banghua and Fei Chun immediately responded.

Zhao Han also said: "Maosheng's mission group, the peasant association of Dashan (Zuo Xiaoliang), immediately began to publicize the organization after the weather was clear. Harvest the wheat that has fallen due to the wind and rain first, and how much can you get back! ”

In ancient times, wheat did not have lodging-resistant varieties, and when it was ripe, it was likely to fall to the ground in patches and cause a poor harvest when it encountered strong winds and rains.

Zuo Xiaoliang said: "Rest assured, the peasant association has already taken action. These days, people in villages and towns have been mobilized to help each other lift up the fallen wheat. Everyone plugged in the bamboo poles, made a simple fence with strips, and immediately picked them up and tied them up when they found that they were lodging. ”

"Well done, credit your peasant association!" Zhao Han was very happy.

Ouyang Steam raised his hand and said: "After the spring ploughing, I organized the villagers to dig four reservoirs. The road over there is not easy to walk, especially the mountain road, and I want to organize the villagers to build the road again. ”

Zhao Han said: "After the farming is over, let the peasant association assist you in doing things." ”

After talking about agriculture and infrastructure, Xiao Huan suddenly said: "According to the spies who stayed in Fucheng, the prefect of Ji'an and the county of Luling have arrived one after another a few days ago. ”

"Who is the prefect of Ji'an?" Zhao Han asked.

Xiao Huan replied: "Yang Zhaosheng, the third rank jinshi in the second year of the Apocalypse, I don't know how this person is. ”

Zhao Han asked Li Banghua: "Does Mr. Li know this person?" ”

Li Banghua shook his head: "I haven't heard of it." ”

Since I haven't heard of it, it must be a small role, and everyone doesn't pay attention to it.

Xiao Huan said again: "The new magistrate is called Wang Tiaoding, it seems that he is a four-year jinshi of Chongzhen, and it is not clear what the specific person is. ”

The new governor is a bastard.

The new magistrate is a real good official.

Wang Tiaoding previously served as the magistrate of Xian County, not only was he not corrupt, but he actually donated money to build the city wall. Not only did he donate money, but he also donated the money he brought from home.

At that time, the people of Xian County were struggling to make a living, and bandits were everywhere, and it only took three years for Wang Tiaoding to make the thieves extinct and the people to live.

At this moment, Wang Tiaoding is visiting the people.

Because Zhao Han killed the county officials, Wang Tiaoding no longer had to rectify the officials, and he was not afraid of being overshadowed by his officials.

He took a few retinues and inspected all the townships, and finally came to the shore of Lushui.

"Across the street is the territory of the anti-thief theft?" Wang Tiaoding asked.

A soapman replied, "Exactly." ”

Wang Tiaoding paced towards the ferry, and said as he went, "Let's cross the river and have a look." ”

"County honor, don't!"

"County Zun, that Zhao thief kills people without blinking, we may have no return!"

"Have you forgotten that Zhao Thief slaughtered all the county officials last year!"

“……”

The entourage hurriedly caught up, hugged their arms and pulled their thighs, and pulled Wang Tiaoding alive.

Wang Tiaoding said with a smile: "The Zhao thief took the city without plundering the market, and took the initiative to return the city and leave, he will not want to conflict with the government again." As long as I don't recruit troops to suppress the thieves, the Zhao thieves will definitely not kill the magistrate. Let go, gentlemen, and follow me to find out the enemy's situation. ”

The entourage couldn't stop it, so they could only follow the magistrate across the river.

They belong to the private interview of Weifu, and they do not wear official clothes, more like they come to the countryside for tourism.

Wang Tiaoding stepped on the ridge of the field, walked and walked, suddenly squatted down to check the ears of rice, and exclaimed: "This rice grows so well, there is no spring drought in the territory of the anti-thief?" ”

"I don't know." The attendants shook their heads.

After continuing to walk for a while, I finally saw a farmer carrying firewood.

Wang Tiaoding arched his hand and said: "Brother Tai, I am a foreign merchant, and your rice here is growing well, so you haven't encountered a spring drought?" ”

The peasants were very proud: "When there is a drought, there is a peasant association to take the lead, you help me, I will help you." Mr. Zhao said that as long as there is water in the river, the fields are not afraid of drought. ”

"What is the Peasant Association?" Wang Tiaoding asked.

The peasant said: "The peasant association is the villagers, you help me, I help you, the world is the same." ”

"The world is the same?" Wang Tiaoding was shocked in his heart, Jiangxi is really prosperous, and every farmer knows that the world is the same.

The peasants smiled and said: "The world is the same, that is, everyone has land to cultivate, everyone has food, and everyone has clothes to wear." Mr. Zhao said that if you want the world to be in harmony, you have to set up a peasant association, you help me, I will help you. ”

How does it feel like something is wrong, and it seems to make sense?

Wang Tiaoding asked: "How does the peasant association help?" ”

"It's you who help me, I'll help you, why don't you understand in this future life?" The peasant's tone was full of contempt.

Wang Tiaoding is indeed a descendant, he has been a county magistrate for three years, and he is still very young.

He was a prodigy, not only did he get a show, but he was also a student.

Eleven-year-old Die!

It is precisely because the road to the imperial examination is unimpeded that the family also has money and does not worry about food and clothing, and has always maintained a pure heart. He became an official at a young age, full of enthusiasm, and he was not greedy for silver, and donated the silver brought by his family to build a city.

This is a young official with ideals and pursuits.

After repeated questioning, the peasants couldn't say why, so Wang Tiaoding could only continue to move forward.

Along the way, the people were happy and the rice and wheat were abundant.

Wang Tiaoding was dumbfounded and said, "This is actually a den of thieves? ”

One of the attendants said, "County Zun, this is the den of thieves." There are eight townships in Luling County, and the four townships in the west are all thieves' dens. ”

Wang Tiaoding laughed bitterly at himself: "If this is a thief's den, the villages and towns that were inspected before, and the townships under the rule of this official, are far inferior to the thieves' dens." Zhao thief here, what a strange person! ”

The crowd continued on their way, and finally came to a hilly area.

There are very few paddy fields here, eighty percent of them are dryland, most of them are grown with wheat, but there are also a few other miscellaneous grains.

I saw that in a wheat field, there were more than 20 people harvesting, and even a few children were picking up ears of wheat.

There is a flag on the hillside, a very common indigo cotton cloth, the same as the military flag of the Datong soldiers, but this flag is embroidered with the word "nong".

Another man came with tea to quench the thirst of the wheat harvesters, and took the opportunity to say: "Fellow villagers, work harder, first harvest the fallen wheat, and then harvest the fallen wheat." Strive to dry all the wheat and put it into the warehouse before the next rain! ”

"Liu Xianggong can rest assured that he will be able to collect it."

"There are more than 20 people on a piece of land, and it will be done in three or two clicks."

"I'm done here, where should I go tomorrow?"

“……”

The peasants drank tea to quench their thirst as they spoke.

After drinking tea, he didn't need anyone to urge him, and immediately went back to cutting wheat.

Another farmer tied up the wheat straw and carried it downhill to the threshing floor, and Wang Tiaoding immediately followed.

But I saw that the threshing floor was more lively, and it was orderly in chaos.

It is divided into several areas, where men thresh with flails and women dry wheat with wooden rakes.

After a period of labor, some missionaries shouted to rest, and everyone gathered in the shade of the tree to drink tea and chat.

It is all tea made from cheap tea foam, and it has long been brewed white, which is no different from drinking boiling water. But everyone just drank vigorously, and there was a woman with a good look, who took advantage of the break to sing a little song to everyone.

"Good!"

"One more!"

After singing a song, they cheered and cheered in unison.

The one who sang the song was originally a prostitute from Fucheng, and she came here voluntarily from thieves.

She was also given three acres of land, but she was unable to cultivate it, so she had to give it to farmers who had spare energy. I usually follow the missionary officer, get a salary, and specialize in singing songs to liven up the atmosphere.

Wang Tiaoding was silent and walked towards the next village and town, only to find that everywhere was the same.

He looked at the people who were jubilantly harvesting wheat, and suddenly his eyes moistened: "Where is this thief's den, this is clearly a peach source." ”

Wang Tiaoding turned around and asked his entourage, "Is this a den of thieves?" ”

Everyone was silent and did not dare to talk nonsense.

Suddenly, a soap official boldly said, "They have all divided the fields, and I heard that the taxes are not heavy, so why don't you rejoice in collecting grain for yourself?" ”

"You don't understand, you don't understand!" Wang Tiaoding shook his head again and again.

How can this make sense by dividing the fields, so many peasants are like a family, helping each other to harvest wheat and dry it. Instead of seeing disputes, there is a scene of harmony, this kind of organization is too terrifying.

Even, you can directly organize the people into the army!

After inquiring all the way forward, Wang Tiaoding actually went straight to the General Soldier's Mansion, and said to the doorman: "Please inform Mr. Zhao, Wang Tiaoding of Luling County asks to see you." ”
