The farmer, who had gotten up early, came to the well to draw water, and saw that after a night, the well was overflowing with water again.

Rubbing his sleepy eyes in disbelief, he found that the well was still full, threw down the bucket and ran up the manor.

While running, he excitedly vented the excitement in his heart: "There is water!" Come and see! There is water in the well!! ”

The people in the nearby rooms were woken up by it, and they all got up with sleepy eyes to see what was going on.

After hearing the guy shouting that there was water in the well, they all went to check the nearest well.

Naturally, at first, they couldn't believe it, or rubbed their eyes or pinched the thighs of others, and after making sure that they had woken up, they all shouted excitedly one by one.

In this regard, Liu An just smiled slightly.

Ignoring the excitement of the villagers, Liu An called Qu Ze and instructed him to choose a place in the manor and dig a large pool as soon as possible.

At the same time, he told Qu Ze that after he saw Gao Sheng, he would inform him that he would go to the county government office to take up his post today.

Then, Liu An drove home.

When he got home, Cui Shi had already cooked a meal and was waiting for Liu An.

After Liu An hurriedly finished breakfast, he went back to his room and fell asleep.

In a haze, Liu An heard the system prompt that the task of harvesting an acre of potatoes had been completed, but Liu An was so sleepy that he didn't finish listening to the system's prompt sound, so he fell asleep.

This sleep, Liu An slept all day, and only woke up in the evening.

The first thing I did when I woke up was to open the system panel to check, and now Liu An has saved 36 contribution points, of which 35 points are obtained by collecting the victims during this time, and the other point is obtained by completing the potato harvesting task today.

I still remember when I was in a daze, Liu An seemed to hear the system say that the farming lottery plate unlocked something, so he opened it to check.

Finding that there is a new crop in the farming lottery plate - sugar beet, Liu An is overjoyed.

Beets can extract sugar, which Liu An has long known, when he unlocked the farming lottery plate before, Liu An saw that there were no beets, and regretted it for a while, but he didn't expect it to be unlocked at this time.

Although he didn't hear what the system said at the time, Liu An guessed that it should be a reward for completing the main quest.

It's just that Liu An is disappointed that the planting time of sugar beet has passed, and it seems that it can only be planted next year.

So after hesitating for a moment, Liu An left the contribution and did not draw the lottery plate for farming.

And he's going to merge states later, so he needs to leave some contributions in case he needs them.

For dinner, Liu An took out thirteen spices, cooked a pot of meat and vegetables, and after Xia Houlan came back, the three of them ate together.

During this period, Xia Houlan told Liu An about the recent changes in the manor.

More than a month has passed, and the other 600 acres of the manor's wall has also been fenced, in addition to many arrow towers.

It's just that the housing has been being built, because the victims have been coming to defect one after another, and with Liu An's orders not to refuse, the manor accepts all the people who come to defect.

Since Liu An's departure, the estate has taken in 506 victims over the age of 8, and nearly 30 children under the age of 8.

Among them, there are 8 misbehaving people in the manor, who have been dealt with by Xiahoulan and others.

Liu An calculated, the number of loyalists recognized by the system during this period was 478, excluding the 8 people who had been dealt with, there should be 20 people who had not been loyal.

On the side of the breeding shed, Liu An previously explained that the construction of the breeding shed has been completed, but the horse farm still needs to wait before it can be built.

The pigeons currently have a total of 13 youngsters, all of which are growing healthily, and all the females such as cattle and horses on the farm have been conceived and can give birth to their youngs after a while.

In terms of ploughing the fields, alfalfa has already been harvested, and all of them have been saved according to Liu An's instructions to raise horses.

After talking about the situation of the manor, Liu An also told Cui Shi and Xia Houlan about his affairs during this time.

Regarding Liu An's decision to serve as the county magistrate of Jiuyuan County, Wuyuan County, Cui's was both happy and reluctant, and his complicated emotions finally turned into one sentence: "Okay...... Good! ”

However, since Liu An served as an official of the imperial court, he needed to be crowned early, and Liu An handed over this matter to Xiahoulan to prepare, and the person who presided over the crowning was naturally Liu Ming's father, Liu Ji and Liu Yuanqi.

Liu Ji is Liu An's cousin and patriarch according to his generation, and now Liu An's father died early and has no brothers, so he can only ask Liu Ji.

The VIP to be invited to be crowned, Liu An thought for a while, and then decided to invite the new county magistrate of Zhuo County.

In addition, Liu An also instructed Xiahou Lan to go to the surrounding areas of Zhuo County tomorrow to inquire if there was a woman of the right age to be married.

Liu Bei is also coming back soon, and he will go to Merge with him later, and Liu An will handle the marriage for Liu Bei before leaving.

When it came to this, Cui took the opportunity to propose Liu An's marriage.

Liu An is sixteen years old this year, and according to the customs of the Han Dynasty, he has also reached the age where he can talk about marriage.

It's just that Liu An felt that it was too early, although his concept was gradually changing, but getting married at the age of sixteen was still a little unacceptable, so he refused on the grounds that his career was important and he was afraid that his mind would be affected by a woman.

After eating, Liu An went to the manor again.

He first asked Qu Ze to call all the victims who had recently entered the village, find out the 20 people, and when he saw that there were no particularly outstanding people among them, he handed them over to Gao Sheng to deal with.

When Liu An heard the victims eating, they were talking about the high yield of potatoes harvested today, which was incredible.

He had planned to inquire about the yield of potatoes, but he knew that the cultivation of potatoes was extremely successful.

However, Liu An still asked Qu Ze about today's potato harvest.

One acre of potatoes has been harvested today, and under the careful care of the villagers, a total of more than 58 stones have been harvested for one acre of potatoes.

The stone here refers to the stone as a unit of weight, because potatoes are not considered grain in the traditional sense, and the yield cannot be calculated by using Hu.

Liu An calculated according to 1 stone and 30 kilograms, and the potatoes were harvested more than 1,740 kilograms in total.

One mu here refers to one mu in the Han Dynasty, 467 square meters, if planted according to 666 square meters of one acre of land in later generations, it can reach a yield of about 2,500 kilograms per mu.

In this regard, Liu An can only say that it is worthy of the high-yield crops provided by the system, and this yield can be regarded as high-yield even if it is modern.

Liu An cautiously instructed Qu Ze that the matter of potatoes should be strictly forbidden to spread outside, and no news should be leaked.

After that, Liu An went to see the pool that Qu Ze had dug yesterday.

The progress of the pool is not fast, even if Qu Ze specially bought a lot of tools to dig the pool today, at the end of the day, he still only dug a big pit about 50 meters long and wide and about 1 meter deep.

Liu An told Qu Ze that it was okay for the pool to be so big, but it was not deep enough, and it was necessary to dig at least four meters deep.

At the same time, it is necessary to build a wooden house next to the pool that can be connected to the pool, and the passage does not need to be large, as long as the water can flow into the pool unimpeded.

Then Liu An went to see the well again, and today he watered some cultivated fields, and about half of the water in the well was consumed.

Liu An found five dead soldiers of the guard, gave them the endless kettle, and told them to secretly fill all the wells at night after everyone had slept, and then go to sleep.

At the same time, they were instructed not to patrol during the day tomorrow, but to keep their spirits and continue to add water to the well at night.

After that, Liu An went home.

In the early morning of the second day, Liu An, who had slept for most of the night, got up full of energy.

After breakfast, he took the letter from Wei De to Zhuoxian County, bought some gifts, and visited the newly appointed Zhuoxian County Magistrate with them.

The name of the new county order is Guo Yuan, the word Zhongbo, and he is a disciple of the Guo family in Yingchuan, which Liu An heard from Xiahou Lan this morning.

This person likes gorgeous clothes, and Liu An's gifts also do what he likes, and he buys some precious silk.

After Liu An handed over the letter and the name to his housekeeper outside the door, it didn't take long for Guo Yuan to personally come to the back door of the county government to greet Liu An, and his attitude was extremely enthusiastic.

Although Gao Sheng is now serving in the county government, he still lives in the manor outside the city, Liu An came early in the morning, Gao Sheng has not arrived at the county government at this time, and Liu An can't find him if he wants to find him.

The more than 20 million money earned in Luoyang is still on the road, pulled by Liu Bei in a carriage.

In order to hurry back to the manor quickly, when he was separated from Liu Bei at that time, Liu An only brought enough money for the group to eat and live, and did not bring much, so he could only wait for Liu Bei to come back and then take the money to buy a house for Gao Sheng in the city.

Gao Sheng is also a county lieutenant, and it is really inappropriate to run back to the manor and other villagers to live in Datongpu every day, and it is not suitable to live in the dilapidated house that Liu An bought before.

Guo Yuan is not very old, he looks like he is twenty-three or four, his clothes are gorgeous, and he looks like a child of a rich family.

When they came to the guest hall, the two sat down separately and chatted for a while, Guo Yuan heard that Gao Sheng was Liu An's person, and he became a little more enthusiastic about Liu An.

Since Gao Shenglai took office in the county government, Guo Yuan has really been a little distressed.

That Gao Sheng is a rough man, he doesn't eat oil and salt if he is soft and hard, Guo Yuan can't pull him in, and he can't scare him with intimidation.

It's just that the old man is not only high at a glance at the force, but also has the official seal ribbon granted by the imperial court, Guo Yuan has just taken office recently, and if he wants to seize power, he has to have a heart, and this high promotion pestle is in that position, which makes Guo Yuan like a fish in his throat.

Now it's okay, since Gao Sheng is Liu An's person, there is Wei De in the middle, Guo Yuan and Liu An are also their own people, with this relationship here, with Guo Yuan's ability, he can at least make Gao Sheng his assistant in power.

Liu An saw that Guo Yuan's closeness was not like an action, so he told the story of the victims in his manor.

In this regard, Guo Yuan very simply promised to help Liu An cover up, and with him in Zhuo County for a day, no one would trouble Liu An.

Liu An was relieved when he saw this, and then proposed that he wanted to ask Guo Yuan to crown himself.

Guo Yuan was flattered when he heard it, Wei Dexin had already mentioned that Liu An was about to go to Wuyuan, that is to say, at such an age, he had the honor to crown the head of a county, how could he not be pleased.

Being able to crown people means that they are highly respected.

Guo Yuan, as a county magistrate, if he crowns ordinary children, he must be regarded as a highly respected person.

But when the other party is replaced by a county magistrate who is about the same as himself, the weight is different, which is not only a recognition of his prestige, but also a sign of trust in him.

After Liu An invited Guo Yuan to crown himself, Guo Yuan's attitude became closer, which Liu An never expected.

He has only been in the Eastern Han Dynasty for three months, and he is still in a state of half-understanding of the meaning of many things in this era, so he naturally does not understand the reason for Guo Yuan's change of attitude.

After the two chatted for half an hour, Gao Sheng also came to the county government to report.

Previously, Guo Yuan had ordered someone to wait for Gao Sheng to come and report to him, and at this time, when someone came to report, Guo Yuan asked that person to invite Gao Sheng.

Gao Sheng came to the backyard guest hall and saw Liu An, his eyes flashed with surprise, and he directly ignored Guo Yuan next to him, and stepped forward to greet Liu An.

Liu An pretended to be angry and reminded Gao Sheng: "Guo County's order is also here, how can you be rude?" ”

Speaking of this, Liu An suddenly reacted, Gao Sheng still has no words, so he has an idea in his heart.

After Gao Sheng finished saluting Guo Yuan, Liu An said to Guo Yuan: "Brother Guo, Gao Sheng is a rough man, please don't blame Brother Guo." ”

"No problem." Guo Yuan's face softened slightly, and he waved his hand.

Just now, Gao Sheng gave Liu An a salute in front of him, but he ignored himself, a superior, which really made him a little embarrassed.

Liu An continued: "Gao Sheng has not yet expressed his words, Brother Guo is well-versed in ancient and modern times, and his writing is brilliant, why not express his words?" ”

"How does this work?" Guo Yuan looked surprised, turned his head to look at Gao Sheng, and saw that he did not show any dissatisfaction, so he was a little moved.

If you can give Gao Sheng a word, the relationship between the two will undoubtedly be much closer, and if this guy sees him Guo Yuan again in the future, he will not be so rude just now.

Of course, this is just Guo Yuan's idea, and it is also the idea that Liu An hopes Guo Yuan has.

Gao Sheng's life is too bad, he has already offended Guo Yuan a little just now, Liu An was afraid that Guo Yuan would wear small shoes for Gao Sheng after he left, so he proposed to let Guo Yuan give Gao Sheng a table to ease the relationship between Guo Yuan and Gao Sheng.

It's just a one-way relaxation, Gao Sheng is Liu An's dead soldier, and everything is only Liu An's order.

Even his appointment as the county lieutenant of Zhuo County was Liu An's order, according to Gao Sheng's own thoughts, he naturally wanted to follow Liu An's side all the time, as for the county magistrate of Zhuo County?

Gao Sheng doesn't care who it is, he's just a rough man with a dead brain.

Liu An remembered that after Gao Sheng used up the death card, the politics were only 33 points, and he must tell him well later, otherwise he was afraid that he would really get into trouble.

After Guo Yuan resigned twice, Liu An still insisted on letting him be the name of Gao Sheng, and Guo Yuan could only respond to this matter under the graciousness.

After brushing his beard and thinking for a while, Guo Yuan said: "The surname is high and the name is promoted, and both high and promoted have the intention, and if you are overly aggressive, you are only afraid that the foundation will be unstable, so it is better to slow down the words and encourage them?" ”

Liu An heard it, Guo Yuan's expression had the meaning of beating, and he was obviously a little dissatisfied with Gao Shenggang's behavior.

Of course, it is also possible that as he said, he is afraid that the foundation is unstable, so he will slow it down and encourage it.

Not to mention Guo Yuan's grudge, Liu An also felt that it was good to slow down, so he said with a smile: "Okay, that's it!" Gao Sheng, haven't you thanked Guo County Order? ”

Although Gao Sheng is a rough person, he also yearns to have a table word, especially in the past two days in the county government, everyone else has a table word, but he is the only one, which is extremely embarrassing.

Therefore, when he heard Liu An say this, he bowed to Guo Yuan with a happy face: "Gao Sheng Xie Guo County Order Table!" ”

Guo Yuan smiled and accepted the promotion gift, and the atmosphere was finally much calmer.

At noon, Guo Yuan hosted a banquet to entertain Liu An and Gaosheng, and after a banquet, the three of them became a little closer.
