Chapter 459: Rising Steadily

Seeing that their master was dragged out like this, Tinghe and Fu An hurriedly went back to the house, picked up their cloaks, chased them out, and put clothes on the two of them.

Zhao Erlang diligently pulled them to the gate, pointed to the other two dustpans and said: "Sister, brother-in-law, this is your firecracker, burn it quickly, A-Niang said, burn firecrackers during the New Year, and the bad luck of that year will be completely gone, and next year will be prosperous and rising!" ”

Zhao Erlang also thought about it with his limited brain, his eyes lit up, and he said happily: "Sister is already an envoy and a feudal official, and if she is promoted, wouldn't she be able to be a marquis and worship the prime minister?" Sister, hurry up. ”

Zhao Hanzhang couldn't help laughing, and after glancing at Fu Tinghan, the two of them stepped forward together and picked up a handful of bamboo knots and threw them into the brazier, they immediately stepped back, only took two steps back, and the bamboo knots in the brazier crackled......

When Zhao Erlang heard this voice, he jumped up excitedly and shouted: "Woo-woo-Sister and brother-in-law's firecrackers are so loud, the New Year must be very good!" ”

Zhao Hanzhang couldn't help but say to him, "You are really getting better and better at talking." ”

Zhao Erlang is hehe, hey.

"Alright, let's burn the rest for us."

This Zhao Erlang was so happy, he immediately rushed forward, took a large handful of bamboo and threw it into the brazier, and when the crackling sound sounded, he jumped on the spot excitedly.

Zhao Hanzhang looked at it with a smile on his face, turned his head and listened to the lotus: "You can also go and burn it." ”

Tinghe happily curtsied, "Yes!" ”

Fu Tinghan also nodded to Fu An, whose eyes were shining, and the two of them rushed up to burn firecrackers with Zhao Erlang.

After half an hour of excitement, the sound of firecrackers in the city slowly subsided, and only occasionally a snapping sound was heard.

Zhao Erlang and the others also burned all the firecrackers, and he finally felt sleepy and followed Zhao Hanzhang back honestly.

Zhao Hanzhang saw that he kept yawning, but he was still thinking about tomorrow's firecrackers, so he smiled and said: "You can sleep in peace, I will ask Qiuwu to keep all the firecrackers for you, and tomorrow you will take them to the alley to burn them with the children." ”

Zhao Erlang was a little relieved and said, "I'm going to compete with them to see who burns the loudest firecrackers and explodes the most." ”

"Okay, let's go to sleep."

Zhao Erlang yawned and went back to the house to rest.

Zhao Hanzhang stood in the courtyard and waited for him to go away, so he asked Tinghe and Fu An to step back, and returned to the main courtyard side by side with Fu Tinghan, by the way, "Let's start debugging gunpowder tomorrow." ”

Fu Tinghan nodded, "I've already asked Qiu Wu to find the materials." ”

He stopped, turned his head, and said, "I thought you wouldn't agree." ”

Zhao Hanzhang: "Didn't you change your mind too?" ”

Fu Tinghan was silent for a moment and then said, "It's too difficult for them, quarrying...... If you work so hard, you will die; If we build houses slowly, we will die; I don't know if more people died in the quarrying that made them hammer after hammer, or if there were more casualties that could have occurred after the gunpowder appeared. ”

He said: "This is a piece of human life, I can't use them as an experiment, and then make a decision after counting the data, I can only follow the trend, I think, at this time, gunpowder appears, make their work more convenient, sacrifice a little less, it should be good, right?" ”

Zhao Hanzhang nodded, and then his face turned solemn, "I will let Qiu Wu assist you, in the future, this matter will only be handed over to Qiu Wu, and the formula of gunpowder must be kept strictly secret!" ”

Fu Tinghan nodded, he knew that this thing was more valuable than anything before.

The two of them returned to the main courtyard, the coldness on Zhao Hanzhang's face dissipated, and he smiled again, "Have a good rest tonight, and see you tomorrow." ”

Fu Tinghan Elevator, "See you tomorrow." ”

Seeing Zhao Hanzhang and Fu Tinghan walking away side by side, Wang Zhen and Xie Shi also turned around and went back to the guest house.

Wang Zhen sighed: "I thought I could drink until dawn tonight, but I didn't expect the envoy to come back so early." ”

As soon as Zhao Hanzhang left, it was not easy for them to get together for a long time, so they could only disperse slowly.

Xie Shi was thinking about another question, "This year, the envoy will be filial, is that going to marry Master Fu?" ”

Wang Zhen frowned when he heard this, "It won't be so fast, right?" Can an envoy still be an envoy after marriage? What should I do if I get pregnant? ”

Xie Shi also has this concern, now the entire Yuzhou relies on Zhao Hanzhang to exist, it is her words, although there is a fight, but no one dares to offend her openly.

But once you get married, or even have children, the situation is complicated.

"Grand Prince Fu and the envoy live in the main courtyard together."

Wang Zhen: "But the separate, although they go in and out together, I don't think the two of them have reached that point yet." ”

"I don't think so, when the two of them stand together, they always have a world of their own, and others can't get in at all."

Wang Zhen frowned and thought for a while before shaking his head, "That's it, it's useless for us to think about this kind of thing, it's better to do the things in front of us with our hearts." ”

Thank you for the time.

Zhao Hanzhang never thought about getting married, this year is the third year of Yongjia, and she will be filial piety in June this year.

However, she forgot about it for the time being, she still has a lot of things to do, and the most important thing after the beginning of spring is the spring plowing and recruitment of talents in various places.

The plan of the year lies in the spring, and last year the spring in the northern part of Yuzhou was ruined by Gou Xi and the King of the East China Sea, and the summer and autumn were ruined by them and Liu Yuan together, so that the whole of Yuzhou is now a disaster area.

This year, we must make up for last year's famine, otherwise Yuzhou will get worse and worse.

Therefore, on the first day of the first lunar month, the people in the city are still resting, reminiscing about the New Year last night, Zhao Hanzhang has already talked with the officials who came to pay New Year's greetings about this year's major events of persuading farmers and recruiting talents.

In particular, she focused on exhorting Yin Sheng, "Let the county commanders personally go to the countryside to persuade farmers and mulberries, take in all the displaced people, divide the land for farming, prepare the seeds they need, and help them with farm tools and livestock as much as possible." ”

He also said: "Let the people of the Si Nong Institute go to the countryside to guide them, so that they can farm more reasonably." ”

When Zhao Hanzhang said this, he turned his head and asked Fan Ying, "I remember that there have been a lot of achievements in the Runan Si Agricultural Institute, and two new methods of making manure have been developed, right?" ”

Fan Ying recalled for a while and nodded: "Yes, there is a method of manure, and some spacing has also been changed, it is said that the spacing is loosened some, which helps the growth of plants, and the yield per mu is higher." ”

Zhao Hanzhang nodded slightly and asked, "How is the popularity of the new farm tools?" ”

"At present, it is only used more in Runan County, and there are almost no other counties."

Zhao Hanzhang frowned slightly and looked at Yin Sheng, "I remember that the new farm tools were just made, and I passed the drawings to the counties, and you are ready for this." ”

Yin Sheng sweated on his forehead and explained: "Yes, but it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, and we have no iron and little iron, so we really can't beat it." ”

Zhao Hanzhang snorted lightly, don't you know how to have it?

However, she didn't bother to ask questions now, and said directly to Fan Ying: "Send a message to Chen County and Runan County, this year, some of the iron produced in Runan County will be allocated to make farm tools and sent to various counties." ”

Zhao Hanzhang's face condensed, "Tell the counties and counties that if these iron didn't appear in the hands of ordinary people in the form of farm tools, I would use their heads to plow the land." ”

Everyone felt a chill down their spines, and Fan Ying responded loudly, "Yes!" ”

See you tomorrow
