September is the harvest season of Dongqin, as long as the boat on both sides of the Yan'an River, you can experience a "big river waves wide, wind blowing rice flowers on both sides" artistic conception.

Due to the popularization of agricultural technologies such as compost and green storage, the life of farmers in Dongqin is very good.

Almost everyone has more than two cultivated cattle in their homes, and the three types of poultry such as chickens, ducks and pigs are kept in captivity.

The tax is also calculated as a fixed amount per mu, and when the year is bad, the monarch will also order it to be levied according to the minimum standard.

It's just that every household's grain must be bought and sold along the road of supply and marketing, and it is not allowed to exist as a grain merchant organization in private.

Therefore, the farmers have more grain and livestock, and more land, but they don't have much money! In order to consume industrial goods, more grain must be sold.

However, no one said that this was bad, and almost all the farmers of the Eastern Qin Dynasty were grateful to Dade for this decree.

Because this at least ensures that they can set aside enough food and have meat to eat during the New Year.

Judging from the birth rate in the past two years, the enthusiasm of these farmers to make babies is also very high, especially the large-scale promotion of the gynecological tool of midwifery forceps, which has reduced the mortality rate of pregnant women a lot.

Such a good day has made these people the most fanatical supporters of Yan Zheng, and when they faced the expansion of the army and conscription, they even sent their babies to physical examination one by one.

They understood that without Dongqin, there would be no good life for them.

A sense of belonging and identity is built in this mutual understanding between the people and the king.

Dongqin is good to the people, and the people will in turn be good to Dongqin, and vice versa.

Yan Zheng is so committed to letting the people have "knowledge" and "wisdom", just to organize them, not to make things for the people for the Son of Heaven like Confucianism, and to make what the people can do and cannot know.

As long as you see the orderly and joyful harvest scene, as long as you hear the sound of threshers everywhere, as long as you see the women in the drying field and who are organized by the village to cook together, you can understand that this group of people is very different from the people of the Ming Dynasty, and just the smile and spirit from the heart can infect everyone.

And Guangdong's first Tanhu visiting group happened to coincide with the harvest season in Eastern Qin.

As soon as they landed, they were given a new set of summer cloth clothes, and under the kind leadership of several tour guides, they started the tour of Dongqin.

The first thing to visit is the villages on both sides of the coast, especially the villages composed of Tanhu, which is the focus of the visit.

In the first half of last year, at the suggestion of Yan Zheng, several so-called "new-style villages" were built, and all of them were sacrificed from planning to construction.

In order to cope with foreign visits, to ensure that the natives of this period will fall under these new rural areas.

"Wow!"

As soon as the boat reached the edge of the rice field, the Tanhu on the boat let out a burst of exclamation.

I saw that the shore was full of people cutting rice, and there were men stepping on something in the field, and the beaten rice was immediately carried away by the oxen.

The farmers stared blankly, their eyes full of praise for this harvest scene.

The tour guide said with a smile: "The per capita amount of land in Dongqin is five acres, and the children who have reached the age of fifteen and have not gone to school again have the right to apply for land division immediately!"

"Five acres!" The Tanhu gasped, how many fields should this be, they have one acre and three points of land, and they can wake up with a smile.

Soon, they landed on the river and, with their guide, came to a village full of red houses.

There were only a few women in the village, and all the men went to the ground.

After a few words of instruction, the tour guide took the visiting group to go door-to-door, and let them move freely, as long as they remember to come and gather.

The Tanmen began to walk around the village in groups of three or five, and the more they looked at them, the more surprised they became.

When they saw the fat pigs in the pigsty of every household, the chickens and ducks raised, and the big livestock such as donkeys, they all felt that this villager in Dongqin was afraid that he was richer than the small landlords of the Ming Dynasty!

"Second uncle, you said that these can't be bluffed by the people of Dongqin, right?"

"Not like! People really bother to deceive us, so what are they trying to do? Is the picture a salty smell on our Tando? ”

"What the second uncle said is right, this Dongqin person is doing things safely and properly, and there is reason and evidence! It's just that...... It's just that I can't believe that anyone would do this to us! ”

"Look more, ask more! The people of Dongqin want us to come to Dongqin and divide the fields and houses for us, so there must be some plans! But even if it was planned, I was willing!

I've lived for almost half my life, and I've never seen such a kind person, that Dr. Long can stay up until three watches before sleeping for a child, this heart alone, how can it be compared to gold and silver? ”

Similar conversations took place everywhere, and the original concerns of the visiting groups were dispelled by seeing it for themselves.

To be honest, many of them, even if they don't come to visit, their hearts have been shaken, and after this visit, their hearts have been so firm that they can't be more firm

…………

Meaux, Red House.

After Yan Zheng read the report of the working group, he was very happy in his heart, and wrote down the receipt: The situation in Guangdong is promising, and some water bandits don't have to be taken to heart, even if they are forced to follow the thieves, they can be treated sincerely, but it really doesn't work, and they can also spend money to avoid disasters, anyway, how many copper coins in Eastern Qin will be minted!

After writing the receipt, he asked Lan Ya to call another group of people who came back together this time.

This group of people is the carving craftsman that the Huang family is looking for, 5,000 taels of silver, in exchange for 57 people, all of whom bought out their net worth, and the family was sent to Dongqin.

And these people, all from a printing house!

This printing shop in Guangzhou, due to poor management, owed some foreign debts, when it was known that the Huang family was looking for carving craftsmen, the boss personally came to the door.

So together with the boss and the boss's wife, as well as more than half of the workers, they were all bought out by the Huang family at the expense of the Huang family, and they were sent to Dongqin.

"The villain has seen the king!"

As soon as he entered the door, the original bookstore shopkeeper took the lead and knelt down.

Yan Zheng glanced at the black and thin man and said, "Get up, you are Cai Xiwei, Cai's shopkeeper?"

"Don't dare, the villain is just the king's minion now!"

"Eh, Dongqin has no slave status, I just hired you to come over this time, and in the future, you will work for Dongqin, or do printing!" Yan Zheng said with a smile.

Cai Xiwei arched his hand and said, "King, I can write and calculate, can I stop doing printing?"

"Why?"

"This ...... The villain will not wither the edition, and in the operation of the bookstore, it is also ...... There are also some hearts that have more than one season! ”

Yan Zheng smiled and said: "Don't worry, I will send you a cadre from Dongqin when the time comes, you don't have to be weak, the entire Dongqin, you know, the details of the Daming printing market!"

Cai Xiwei thought for a while, and finally nodded.

Yan Zheng asked again: "Then why can't your bookstore survive?"

"Hey, the villain was heartbroken when he said this, and he was ...... Originally, it was a good business, but it offended a few people who wrote scripts, which led to all the talented people who wrote scripts and no longer took care of our bookstore! ”

"Heh, the author of the Ming Dynasty will still hold a group?" Yan Zheng thought it was funny.

"The king doesn't know!" Cai Xiwei sighed and said: "The top talents have dealings with each other, and if you offend one, you will often not be allowed to publish, and you will boycott it together!" Without this good book, I can only print some books such as Confucian scriptures, but this kind of book can't make money in Guangzhou! ”

Yan Zheng felt that the dog editors of the Ming Dynasty seemed to have a better life.

"Since there is already an authorization, can this government censor the published books?"

"Yes! But it's not strict, it's just that you can't bewitch the public, and even if it's secretly printed, it's okay if you don't get caught, but each bookstore is often stricter than the government, not an ordinary book, and it's not allowed to enter the store! ”

Yan Zheng nodded: "If Dong Qin wants to publish some books to introduce our Dong Qin, is it possible?"

"This ...... This must be possible, as long as the bookstore feels that it is profitable, it can be sold, as long as it is not a demon book like the White Lotus Sect, the government generally turns a blind eye! ”

Yan Zheng couldn't help but glance at Da Ming, who said that Da Ming's literary prison was powerful?

It's ridiculous, a dynasty that can print and circulate "Golden Vase Plum" can not be a little tolerant of words?
