Chapter 145 Proposal
Zhou Daoquan had made a special fortune calculation about the killing of the Qinghe County Order and the Lian Visiting Envoy, but the result was calculated and calculated, but there was no result, but it led to a backlash and a little injury.
So he knew that the existence of killing the court officials was not trivial, and it was definitely beyond his own measure.
But he himself is a great Confucian in the world, his cultivation is profound, and the way of divination is even more unbeatable in the world, so that he can not figure out the existence of the beginning, the origin is big, and the cultivation is deep, it can be imagined.
A few days ago, in Wanhualou, Yunzhou Mansion, a master killed the disciple of Lang Mingshan, which alarmed Zhou Daoquan, and Zhou Daoquan's divination was also counterattacked, which was quite similar to the counterattack of this divination.
And in these two things, Li Mu was present, so Zhou Daoquan had to suspect that it was Li Mu's identity.
How can a Xiucai from Baoming County have such magical powers, even if Zhou Daoquan is well-informed, it feels a little strange.
This time, I sensed the vision of Li Mu's practice, and my heart became more and more surprised: "If it is not the method of enlightenment, there is no such movement, which sage is this Li Muzhi's inheritance?" ”
The figure outside the bedroom flashed, and the guard's deep voice came: "My lord, can you let your subordinates go and investigate?" ”
Zhou Daoquan stopped: "No, watching people practice is a taboo in cultivation, if you alarm it, you will be killed on the spot, and I can't say anything." ”
Shen Chong said: "The power of self-protection of subordinates is still there." ”
Although he said this, he still didn't dare to approach Li Mu's mansion after all, this person is arrogant, but he is not stupid.
Like Li Mu's amazing inheritance, even if he is a son of a soldier, he doesn't dare to offend easily, arrogance can be there, arrogance can also be had, but stupidity is better not to have.
"Shen Guard, this Li Mu's origin is a bit peculiar, but judging by what he did, he is also a chivalrous person, whether it is good or bad, we need to know more contact. Don't be too wary of him, lest there be disputes and troubles in the future. ”
Zhou Daoquan didn't leave the house either, and said to the door: "It's not early, let's rest." ”
Shen Chong bowed slightly to Zhou Daoquan outside the door: "Yes!" Adults should rest early, too! ”
After he left, Zhou Daoquan smiled, extinguished the oil lamp, and slowly lay on the bed.
When no one saw it, a lot of melancholy appeared on his face: "A state of land, many affairs, this Baoming, Qinghe two counties, there are many people, although there is a clear porridge for the time being, but winter goes to spring, the end of summer and autumn solstice, good seeds are rare, natural disasters and man-made disasters continue, even the court has no surplus food...... I only hope that the saints will be enlightened, and listen less to the words of traitors and do more useful things......"
Today, His Majesty is lustful and greedy, has not been to the court for three years, and has been messing with the female concubines in the palace all day long, so that the government is scattered, the officials are mediocre, and the entire court has a scene of sunset.
Zhou Daoquan wrote several times to explain the pros and cons, but he had to be demoted and punished, trapped in Yunzhou, and his ambitions were difficult to display.
When he first came to Yunzhou, the local officials and gentry were extremely repulsive, and all kinds of constraints were numerous, so that it was difficult to issue government decrees and difficult to get news, and several county towns in Baoming and Qinghe were plagued by plagues and floods, and a large number of people died.
"Shura Warrior God"
However, anger can't solve any problems, in the face of such a disaster, if you want to save the people, you have to let the gentry help in the end, even if you know that they are not things, you still have to use them.
"Now in late summer and early autumn, there are no more seeds in the ground, and in the harsh winter, I am afraid that hundreds of people will die of cold and starvation."
Zhou Daoquan had a lot of plans in his heart, and made up his mind that he would definitely open a warehouse tomorrow to release grain and relieve the people, but it was a big deal to investigate corruption, kill a group of squires and landlords, and eat big households.
After some deliberation, he fell into a deep sleep.
When he reached such a realm, walking, sitting and lying down was practice, and there was no need to deliberately practice qi to lead Zhou Tian.
Let's talk about Li Mu, at dawn the next day, he walked out of the bedroom and came to the secret room, and found that Gu Tingcheng and Hu Yunniang were still in a state of cultivation and had not woken up.
Li Mu pulled Zhou Tianxing's power and gathered infinite essence, which made the two girls gain a lot.
Originally, Gu Qingcheng was in the place where the Tianhe Sword Sect practiced, and there was no shortage of places with strong spiritual energy, but her previous cultivation was limited, and even if she had more spiritual energy, she couldn't use it effectively.
But since she fought with the Black Water King and was beaten into a pure yang sword qi by Li Mu, the cold ice true qi in her body intersected with the pure yang sword qi, yin and yang intersected, and water and fire intersected, and she actually broke through the cultivation barrier and went further in her cultivation.
Originally, it was cultivated into a sword pill, but it was just a void pill, but after coming into contact with Li Mu, it turned from a void in the middle to a full man, and the sword pill was divided into two, achieving the double sword of yin and yang, and cultivating it as a hurricane.
At this time, it was urgent to absorb the spiritual energy and consolidate himself, and it happened that Li Mu pulled the spiritual power to form a tide of spiritual energy.
And Hu Yunniang was guided by Gu Tingcheng, and had a new understanding of the Chiyan Sword Sutra, re-sorted out what she had learned in her life, washed the demon pill, turned the demon pill into a sword pill, took off her shell, and achieved a human body, so she also needed a lot of aura to make up for the miscellaneous qi eliminated in the demon pill.
Just looking at the situation of the two of them, there are no three, five, seven days, and they don't want to wake up.
Li Mu Nai took out a few puppets, put them in the secret room, and sealed the secret room with runes, and outside the seal, two more Xuantie Transformers puppets were placed, and then he came to the hall and sat down.
A servant had already made breakfast and brought it up for Li Mu, and the two maids waited for Li Mu to clean his face and wash his hands, and then waited for Li Mu to have breakfast, and then bowed and left.
"These maids Yun Niang is looking for are becoming more and more aware of the rules, damn, if this continues, won't Lao Tzu degenerate into a legendary landlord and old wealth? It's really out of the true colors of ordinary people, which has to be self-criticized, but criticism is criticism, and enjoyment is still to continue to enjoy, this is the last word......"
After Li Mu finished breakfast, he called Sun Honglie in front of him: "Hong Lie, you go and call Zhang Shihong, and say that I have a benefit for him." ”
Because Sun Honglie governed Qinghe County with Zhang Shihong, he was very disciplined and flexible, and in a short period of time, he became a figure with a head and a face in Qinghe County.
He had to pass on the law from Li Mu, boiled his muscles and bones, tempered his body, and learned a magic power of bone shrinkage, so he ran the bone shrinking technique, changed his appearance, and became another face, which was no longer the appearance of the wanted criminals in the past.
His real name is Sun Zhi, the word Hong Lie, and now he has changed his name to Sun Hao, the word Hong Lie has not changed, and he also said to the outside world that he is a native of Baoming County, serving Li Mu since he was a child, and he is a servant of the Li family.
Now the master Li Mu is gracious, let him go as a slave, allow him to operate outside, and set up another door, Sun Hao is grateful, and he can't bear to leave the old master, so he still follows Li Mu.
After this story was told, no one praised it, one said that Li Mu was benevolent and righteous, and the other said that Sun Hao was loyal, but it became a beautiful talk.
Sun Honglie is also a scholar, quite knowledgeable about scriptures and righteousness, can read and paint, in this small county of Qinghe, he is really a great reader.
Even Zhang Shihong and others can write a handwriting font at most, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but almost no one can do it, Sun Honglie can write and paint, and is naturally respected by everyone.
"Yes, sir!"
Sun Honglie didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly walked out of the house to call Zhang Shihong.
There was not much time, so Zhang Shihong rode his horse and trotted to the courtyard: "Brother Li, I don't know why you can teach me?" ”
Li Mu said with a smile: "I have some good grain here, and I am going to make seeds for the victims of the two counties on credit, but there are a lot of them, and if they are all on credit, it will be too eye-catching, so I want Brother Zhang to be a good person with me and help the people around me." ”
Zhang Shihong said: "Brother Li, you have such a kind heart, how dare your brother disobey?" You don't have to give too much of this food, and your brother's family also has a lot of surplus food, and you can also give it to the victims on credit to make good seeds. ”
When he said this, he was curious: "Brother Li, how much are you going to take out?" It's also good that my brother has a plan in advance. ”
Li Mu said: "Then take out 100,000 catties first, if it's not enough, then we will talk about it." ”
"Ten...... 100,000 catties?! ”
Zhang Shihong lost his voice and said: "So much? ”
In this Great Yin Dynasty, the field is very thin, the yield of grain per mu is 100 catties, it is already very good, if an acre of land can exceed 150 catties, it is enough to be regarded as a bumper year, if it can produce more than 200 catties per mu, then it is simply auspicious from heaven, all the people have to burn incense and kowtow, thank God for it.
If a landlord has 1,000 acres of land in his family, and in a bumper harvest year, he will only earn 100,000 catties of grain, and this 100,000 catties of grain will be divided into half of the tenants, and he will have to pay taxes, and he has to give up 30 percent, and he will have to share some profits with the slaves in the family, so even if there are 1,000 acres of fertile land, at the end of the year, the landlord's family can have 20,000 catties of grain left, which is already very good.
Fortunately, the crops in the fields are cropped twice a year, wheat is harvested in summer, and beans are harvested in autumn.
Zhang Shihong's family has more than 1,000 acres of fertile land, in addition to his own family left more than 10 acres, all of them are rented to tenants for planting, all year round, only 20,000 or 30,000 catties of grain input, but his family has shops in the county, there are tofu workshops, there are breweries, there are wooden workshops, there are soy sauce workshops, all living expenses, can be self-sufficient, produce more, can also be sold to the outside world.
There are also pigs, horses, cattle and sheep and other livestock, which breed a lot every year, and can also sell a lot of money, as well as paper workshops, and paper from nearby counties, almost all of which are provided by the old Zhang family, and these transactions are the real source of wealth for Zhang Shihong's family.
But even so, grain is still the foundation of the old Zhang family's survival, this is the top priority, never dare to be a little sloppy, every year to store and dry, carefully inspect, there is new grain into the warehouse, in order to get the old grain out of the warehouse.
100,000 catties of grain, placed anywhere, can be regarded as a big deal, Zhang Shihong originally thought that Li Mu could produce thousands of catties of good seeds, and he was already worthy of his identity.
In any case, I didn't expect that Li Mu would have such a big hand, and I was horrified: "Brother Li, why did you get so much food?" Don't you use it at home? ”
Li Mu said with a smile: "Naturally, I want to set aside my own rations, if 100,000 catties is not enough, I can take out another 100,000 catties." ”
Zhang Shihong was stunned and said: "No wonder Brother Li wants to use my name and surname to do this, if you donate so much food alone, it is indeed a bit terrifying." ”
Li Mudao: "You are now the Qinghe County Order, I borrowed good seeds, just to solve the urgent need for you, Brother Zhang, this is a matter of mutual benefit, do you say I can do it or not?" ”
"Of course it does!"
Zhang Shihong said with a smile: "At this time, the summer has passed, and it is just time to cultivate, and it can be harvested in the autumn, so that the people will not starve to death." Come, come, let's meet the governor together, and explain this matter to him, and we will be rewarded! ”
