Chapter 290: Qi Min's Technique

Although the Yidu Jia family is an heirloom for farming, it is a local scholar in the end, and Jia Siqian also served as an official in the early years.

It's just that because of the chaos of the current situation and the darkness of the government, he abandoned the post of county guard of Gaoyang County, Qingzhou.

The so-called three immortals of virtue, meritorious service, and speech are deeply imprinted in the hearts of scholars like Jia Sixian.

However, he did not abandon his official position and start writing, but after a long period of practice, he used his past agricultural knowledge to run the agricultural and animal husbandry industry himself.

For example, there is an article in "Qi Min's Technique" called "Sheep Raising Chapter", and the reason why Jia Siqian can speak well in it is only because he bought 200 sheep for this purpose and took care of them himself.

At the same time, Jia Siqian did not only summarize his own planting and breeding experience, but also cited more than 150 kinds of agricultural books and miscellaneous works of his predecessors, including "The Book of Bisheng", "The Order of the Four Peoples of the Month" and "Tao Zhu Gong Fish Farming".

It can be seen that he has studied agriculture deeply and made adequate preparations.

This masterpiece of his life's work has a total of 10 volumes, 92 articles, and more than 110,000 words, covering agriculture, forestry, animal husbandry, sideline, fishery and other agricultural fields, worthy of the reputation of ancient Chinese agricultural encyclopedia.

There is no need to question the importance of this agricultural book to Gao Cheng, otherwise he would not have rushed to send someone to escort Jia Siqian and "Qi Min's Technique" into Luo.

When Xue Hu'er and his sister-in-law Zhang Mo and others arrived in Yidu, it was already mid-November.

Jia Siqian has been waiting at home for nearly a month.

Over the years, he has been obsessed with writing, but he is by no means ignorant of things outside the window, there is no impermeable wall in the world, and Yidu is so big.

It is no secret that Gao Cheng attached great importance to him, or to the "Qi Min Yao Shu" that was being created at that time.

After all, there are always people who have been threatened by Gao Cheng to leak their mouths.

Jia Siqian clearly knew that when the manuscript was finished, the strong men who had moved to the surrounding areas for several years would send messages to Luoyang.

But he never imagined that on this day, he was still in a messed up.

"Your Excellency is the former Gaoyang Taishou Jia Gong?"

Xue Hu'er asked respectfully.

If it weren't for his sturdy body, the onlookers would really think that he was a Confucian in front of him.

As a Kuzhi, Xue Huer knew that Gao Cheng valued this agricultural book, although he didn't know what the difference between this book and other agricultural books was.

"It's the old man who dares to ask the general's name?"

Jia Siqian didn't dare to slack off, and asked Xue Hu'er in return.

Xue Hu'er immediately expressed his intentions:

"I don't dare to be the title of a general, Xue Hu'er, now I am a general under the command of Kuzhi, this time I was ordered to escort Jia Gong into Luo, and I asked Jia Gong to pack his bags quickly, the general has prepared a car for the public, please don't delay."

As he spoke, he pointed to the carriage behind him and introduced:

"In the past, when the general inspected the place, he used this car to travel."

When the onlookers in front of Jia's door heard this, they were all in an uproar.

You can't talk nonsense, and you can't sit in a car.

Gao Cheng let Jia Siqian ride his carriage into Luo, and he was glorious and didn't mention it along the way, which was enough to make people grateful.

Jia Siqian didn't let Xue Hu'er wait too long, and their group left Yidu City that day.

This is destined to be a two-way rush, Gao Cheng knows the greatness of "Qi Min's Technique", and Jia Siyi, who created this great work, also needs Gao Cheng to promote it on his behalf.

When Xue Hu'er escorted Jia Siqian to the west, Yecheng also had a convoy out of the city, that is, the outgoing Xiangzhou assassin Shi Yang Su.

It has been seven years since Yang Yu was in the town, and Gao Cheng also deliberately transferred him back to Luoyang.

As for the replacement candidate, everyone thought that it must be from the Takasumi shogunate, but when it was really baked, many people were surprised.

It was the former Imperial Lieutenant Du Bi.

Although Du Bi has never been Gao Cheng's staff for even a day, he has been loved by Gao Cheng because of his honesty and self-discipline and courage to do things.

Since stepping down from the post of lieutenant of Yushi, Du Bi has been transferred many times in the past two years, all of which Gao Cheng specially did in order to train him.

And every time Du Bi did not disappoint him, he was competent in everything, which made Gao Cheng feel at ease to hand over the post of Xiangzhou Assassin to him.

Yang Su, who handed over government affairs with Du Bi, is leading his family to Luoyang.

He knew that after seven years of tempering himself outside, unless he was alienated and deposed, there would be no more time to go out of town in the future.

The chief officials of the three provinces are the only goal to strive for.

In late November, Jia Siqian and Yang Su arrived in Luoyang on their front and back feet.

Gao Cheng first warmly received Jia Sixian, took him to visit the major printing workshops around Luoyang, and when he checked it, he promised Jia Siqian the status of the textbook of "Qi Min's Technique".

He didn't need to do this at all to test the quality of the content of "Qi Min's Technique".

In this regard, Jia Siqian was very happy, and he didn't particularly care about the position of the household servant given by Gao Cheng, who was specifically in charge of agricultural and animal husbandry affairs in various places.

Gao Cheng once said that after the establishment of the imperial examination, those who did not enter the imperial examination were not allowed to enter the center.

It's just that Jia Sixian's contribution is too great, who wants to give him another book comparable to "All Names", Gao Cheng doesn't know that if he wants to introduce the other party into the center, he has to marry and pull into the relationship.

If Jia Siqian wasn't too old, maybe he could really be the son-in-law of the Gao family.

In order to settle the real son-in-law of the Gao family, Yang Su, Gao Cheng asked the Son of Heaven to resign from the post of Shang Shuling.

Yuan Shanjian thought that Gao Cheng would test himself and resolutely refused, until he repeatedly pulled three times, and finally saw Gao Cheng recommend Shangshu's left servant to shoot Gao Longzhi's successor to Shangshuling, and then appoint Yang Su to shoot as Shangshu's left servant, Yuan Shanjian reluctantly agreed.

The reason why Gao Cheng delegated power is because the focus next year will be on the military level, that is, the Second Western Expedition.

At the same time, one person is in charge of three provinces, which also makes Gao Cheng tired of government affairs, which is really too busy.

In addition, there is a third point, after eight years of dedication before and after the saddle of Gao Long, it is time to mention it.

In order to appease Shangshu's right servant to shoot Sun Teng, Gao Cheng gave him a service.

After going around for eight years, the position of waiter that he lost due to jealousy in the dispute with Feng Long was finally taken back by Sun Teng.

Gao Cheng originally planned to remove Gao Long's position as a servant in order to maintain the size of the three servants, namely Gao Cheng, Sun Teng, and Sima Ziru.

However, considering the need for Gao Long to enter the palace from time to time to teach Yuan Shanjian, it was retained.

So, after a few years, four more servants gathered in Luoyang.

But no one will ever sing about the four nobles of Luoyang.

Jia Sixian, who is in charge of agricultural and animal husbandry affairs, handles affairs very easily.

The left servant of Shangshu shot Yang Su and Sun Teng also redivided the six departments, the three departments of households, rites, and punishment were in charge of Sun Teng, and the three departments of officials, workers, and soldiers were in charge of Yang Su.

The first thing Yang Su, as the Shangshu Zuo servant in charge of the Ministry of Works, had to do was to gather craftsmen to engrave the engraving plate for "Qi Ming Yaoshu".

More than 110,000 words is not a small project.
