Chapter 158 The Troubles of the Rich

After the freshly fried chili pepper is mixed with vinegar water and minced garlic, the taste changes greatly, and the simple spicy taste is instantly mixed with the sour aroma, and then mixed with the rich garlic flavor, the spicy taste of Qijun becomes mild, and the oil and water in the trouser noodle stimulate the fragrance of the trouser noodle to the extreme.

glanced at Di Renjie, who was holding the bowl and staring at him intently, gently, with Zhong Dao, Yun Chu vigorously stirred a piece of noodles with chopsticks, then pulled up a piece of noodles, and began to eat with a sigh.

The noodles made by the Yun family's chef are naturally impeccable, and now with the last seasoning of chili peppers, Yun Chu finally tasted the taste of his dreams.

It may be because he hasn't eaten chili peppers for many years, Yun Chu was spicy, but he knew that chili peppers gave people a feeling of pain instead of taste.

Enduring pain is nothing to him, so when Di Renjie and the others began to take out the courage to test the poison and eat noodles, Yun Chu had already signaled the cook to bring him another bowl, and the saliva of Naha and Li Hong, who were guarding the side, had already flowed down.

Obviously, he is a fierce general who is famous for charging and breaking through formations, but I don't know why these people think that they are the most life-sparing person.

Those people may not be used to eating chili peppers, and they may even find it unpalatable, but it doesn't matter, Yun Chu likes to eat it, and he likes to eat it very much.

The sudden appearance of this thing, Yun Chu felt that this was a huge reward given to him by God.

It turns out that the person who trusts Yun Chu the most in this world is Naha, because although this child is spicy and laughing, he still eats hard to eat the pants noodles with chili peppers, and the bowl of rice is not finished, this child has already tasted the benefits of chili peppers, and is ready to eat another bowl.

Yun Chu seriously suspected that Zhong Dao did not have a pain system, and when it was more painful for Gentle and Di Renjie to eat chili peppers, he had already eaten three bowls of noodles in a row.

As for Yu Xiurong, after taking out the courage to commit suicide and taking a bite, she refused to eat it, no matter how delicious Naha said, she just didn't eat a bite, she declared that she didn't want to lose her life for a bite to eat.

Li Hong only ate it after seeing Naha eat it, and brought the spirit of a gentleman not standing under the wall to the extreme.

But obviously he is also a person who can eat spicy, except for the first bite of caution, the rest is gobbled up.

Zhong Dao is really crazy about eating, although he is sweating profusely, the more he eats, the more he eats, the more enjoyable he becomes, and the last bowl of rice has been completely dyed red by chili peppers, which makes Yun Chu very satisfied.

If you want to say that you want to eat spicy noodles, you still have to go out of the old Qin people, gentle, Di Renjie and the two old sour people in Shanxi can't be ranked.

After eating this meal, Yun Chu put the remaining chili peppers into a jar and stored them.

If they want to eat it again, they will have to wait until the peppers are planted in the summer.

After eating spicy noodles, people like to drink water, and his gentle lips are still swollen, and he keeps pointing to his fat lips to tell Yun Chu that this is clearly a manifestation of poisoning, and chili peppers cannot be counted as food at all.

"I want to know where this thing came from," Yun Chu took a sip of tea, and said to Gentle and gentle.

Although Yun Chu looked calm when he spoke, several people present heard an undoubted taste from this sentence.

"Queen, you should know, if you want to know, you have to see who the queen has met after summoning you today."

This kind of reasoning is not half difficult for Di Renjie.

Gently looked at Li Hong and said, "This matter is naturally for His Royal Highness the Prince."

Li Hong followed Yun Chu's example, put his hands on his little belly, and said very magnificently: "This is not difficult."

Yun Chu said, "Peppers are very important to me, but in terms of importance, they are not worth mentioning in terms of what I said, potatoes, corn, sweet potatoes, and pumpkins."

Zhong Dao continued: "Since you are very sure that this thing is not in the Tang Dynasty, but in a very distant place, and it is across the sea from the Tang Dynasty, then the chili pepper has appeared, and the rest of the things will not be too far away, so investigate the people who have been in contact with the sea recently, and you should also be able to find some useful clues."

Said gently: "Now the Tang Dynasty's

The Sifang Pavilion is full of people all year round, so I'll pay attention to it."

Yun Chu smiled when he heard this: "Okay, if this thing can be done, I guarantee that you will leave your name in history."

Di Renjie said, "Can't you do it?"

Yun Chu said: "That's our fate is not good"

In the spring of the third year of Xianqing, Wannian County and Chang'an County have obviously achieved the realm of politics and harmony.

The cultivation in the spring has been fully and methodically, and when the apricot blossoms bloom, it is a good time for the cotton farmers to open the straw curtain of the greenhouse and let the cotton seedlings cultivated in the concentration see the sun.

When the peach blossoms are in full bloom, it is time to transplant these cotton seedlings into the field, and at that time, green cotton seedlings will appear in the fields of Wannian County, Chang'an County, and even nearby Lantian Field, Juxian County and other places.

Planting cotton on a large scale has become the most important thing in the year in Guanzhong, and even the government has to go to the field to supervise when transplanting seedlings.

When the apricot blossoms bloom, sometimes it will snow in Guanzhong, and when the peach blossoms bloom, sometimes there will be hail, a late frost, or a heavy rain, or a major drought, which can destroy the hard work of Guanzhong people for a year.

Therefore, the life of the peasants has always been very hard, that is, these storms have shaped the character of the people in Guanzhong into tenacity and prudence.

So at the critical moment of preparing to plant cotton seedlings, these guys, who are both tenacious and cautious, and have a natural peasant style, propose to the government for the first time - add money!

The requirements are very simple, one acre of land should be paid 30 yuan, and if you don't add money, you won't plant cotton.

Yun Chu really wanted to find the person who took the lead, according to the logic of dealing with this kind of thing in the past, as long as the leader was beaten up or locked up in prison for a few days, this kind of thing would naturally subside.

This time it's different, with Di Renjie's ability, he can't find the initiator in a short period of time. Even if they asked the head of the Fang, the imperial commanders couldn't get the news they wanted, and even the diehard loyalists of Yun Chu in the army didn't know how this happened.

It's as if after everyone has slept for a while, the concept of thirty dollars suddenly comes to everyone's heads.

And the most interesting thing is that the requirement of 30 yuan happens to be 10% of the benefits that can be obtained in all the trading links of Wannian County and Chang'an County, from cotton planting, to textile, selling finished products, and exchanging grain.

Yunchu's county order is very popular with the people, of course, the premise is not to mention money, not to mention labor, less their food, money, more labor, every minute to turn their face.

Wannian County has reclaimed a lot of cotton fields in recent years, with an area of nearly 200,000 mu of cotton fields, and if you want to meet the demands of the people, you will have to pay at least 6 million yuan.

Six thousand guan money is not a big number for Wannian County, and Yun Chu can take it out anytime and anywhere. 100\./degree\./search\./so\.7\./4\./text\./learning\./net\./first\./send

But this is not a matter of six thousand yuan at all, if the people ask for a hundred yuan at a time, Yun Chu's heart is still stable, because this is likely to be their bottom line.

The problem is that people only need 30 Wen, which is not suitable, this time 30 Wen is given, everyone plants cotton in the field, and when the cotton needs to pick peaches, do you want 30 Wen? After giving, do you want to give another 30 wen when picking cotton?

As for the matter of asking for the grain that had already been distributed to the people, there was no possibility at all, and if they dared to ask them for food, they would dare to beat to death the officials sent by the government to collect the grain.

If Yun Chu didn't want to provoke a popular uprising, he couldn't do it.

When Wen Rou saw Yun Chu, he said anxiously: "The time to plant cotton seedlings is only a short fifteen days, if you miss it, you don't have to think about this year's cotton harvest."

Yun Chu said, "Didn't you release the news that you will no longer plant cotton next year, what is the reaction?" Gently gritted his teeth and said, "The people don't believe it at all."

Yun Chu smiled: "It seems that this time their will is really firm, and the hearts of the people are still so united, have you found the main messenger behind the scenes?"

Gently shook her head and said, "It's still there."

Check the initiator, but after many clues are found to the end, it is found that they are all from some rumors.

In addition, in recent years, the government has made a lot of money from cotton, which is an obvious fact, and cotton farmers have long heard about it, and they are very uncomfortable in their hearts, which is the main reason why this fire can be lit.

As the cotton farmers say, they really want to make more money."

Yun Chu said with a smile: "Then tell the officials and the chiefs, this year's cotton is the last cotton, from next year, Wannian County, Chang'an County will no longer grow cotton, we are ready to put the cotton field on Longyou Road, and we are also ready to open a few cotton textile workshops in Longyou Road."

The reason why Wannian County and Chang'an County used to grow cotton was entirely to reduce the salinity on the land.

Cotton has been planted for four years, and the salinity on the land has been almost pulled, and wheat can be planted again."

Gently frowned and said, "The problem now is that people don't believe it, and people don't work without thirty dollars."

Yun Chu spread his hands and said, "Give money to those who ask for money, there will always be some people in the two counties who don't want money, and those who don't want money won't give money."

Gently and anxiously, he said, "This is not good, they won't believe it."

Yun Chu said: "It doesn't matter if you believe it or not, we really won't grow cotton next year, every word I said before is true."

Gently and sluggishly, he looked at Yun Chu and said, "We won't be angry with the people, right?

Yun Chu shook his head and said: "It's not that I'm angry, to be honest, there are already too many cotton fields that have been planted for four consecutive years, and it's time to plant other crops in turn, I originally planned to plant beans in Wannian County next year, and after the beans are harvested, plant two more stubbles of wheat to ease the soil strength."

"Isn't it really angry with the people?"

"No, if you look at the changes in cotton production over the past few years, you will find that when we planted cotton, the cotton yield reached its highest in the second year, and it began to decline from the third year, and the fourth year was lower than the third year, and this year's cotton production will be even worse than the first year, according to my estimate.

Moreover, the pest of cotton is getting worse year by year, Wannian County and Chang'an County, the two earliest places where cotton was planted, are no longer suitable for continuing to grow cotton."
