Chapter 811: That Summer Seven
Wangjiayi got its name from this Wangjiazhuang.
Wangjiazhuang is a rather large village, and the village is located at the foot of a small hill.
Shimohara Prefecture is an alluvial plain of the Wu State, which can be regarded as an important granary of the Wu State.
Therefore, there are quite a lot of people in this village, and the fields are not abandoned, and the crops in the fields are well served.
This kind of goodness is relative to Ning Guo.
When Li Chenan looked at the green rice fields in the endless drizzle, he couldn't help but think of Ning Guo.
Two years ago, from Ningguo to Jiangnan, I saw many villages almost uninhabited, and many fields were overgrown with wild grass.
It's not just a well-located field outside of Tammyo City.
From Guangling City to Zhouzhuang, the villages that passed through were also smoked because of banditry.
Under the heavy snow, it is all withered grass!
Jiangnan will be better, at least the fields in Zhouzhuang are not too much abandoned.
Some places in Shuzhou will also be better, because of the operation of Zhongli Mansion, that place has not been affected by the mountain bandits, but it is limited to the line from Lizhou to Chongqing Mansion.
The rest of the place is also bordering on wilderness.
His state of mind was very different then than it is now.
At that time, he only thought that he could cure Zhongli Ruoshui, and he could live his free life with Zhongli Ruoshui Xiao Baozi.
As for how Ningguo is, how are the people of Ningguo...... He really didn't think about it that much.
But now he had to think!
He is also well aware of Ningguo's problems.
Not just a poor word, but also the most critical person in such an era!
He urgently needs to solve the problem of population, starting with industry and commerce, which will play a better role for the people in economically prosperous areas.
However, for the remote areas of Ningguo, such as Shuzhou, such as Lingdongdao, and the vast Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures of the Northern Desert, etc., these places are either limited by geographical conditions or because of the threat of neighboring countries, and no businessmen are willing to go to those places to open workshops.
Merchants would have opened their shops there, but not at the center of their business.
Without workshops, it is impossible to solve the problem of ordinary people earning money in those places.
Those ordinary people can only rely on a few acres of thin fields, and they can only rely on God to be in a high mood and unhappy, whether they can enjoy a bite of food all year round.
In order to solve the problems in these places, the imperial court was needed to invest in the workshop to stimulate the economy in the early stage.
This plan has already taken shape in his mind, but it will take some time to implement.
Then, the field still has to be planted.
What to plant and how to plant in order to solve the problem of food and clothing for those people is the first problem in front of Li Chenan.
Wang Laohan didn't expect the boy to stop him.
He turned around tremblingly, and saw the boy walking towards him with an umbrella.
Qiu Balou looked at Li Chen'an's back from afar, thought about it, and turned around and walked towards Amu.
He needed to get to know Amu.
Amu needs to take him to Li Chen'an's side.
Because he was very curious about what the future emperor of Ning Kingdom would talk about with such an old peasant.
This is important.
This can give him a better understanding of Li Chenan's personality and Li Chenan's possible future policy policies.
……
……
Wang Laohan carried a hoe and watched the boy come with trepidation.
The four fairy-like girls followed behind the boy...... I seem to have looked away, although this son is dressed plainly, he seems to be the main owner of this line.
The richest person I have ever dealt with in my life is the county magistrate of this county, and I can see him twice a year when taxes are collected.
This son-in-law is a young master of the state capital's family?
"Childe...... What's the matter? ”
Li Chenan grinned: "Uncle's surname? ”
"Ah, the old man's surname is Wang, and he has a new word."
"Oh, Uncle Wang, my surname is Li."
Li Chenan stretched out his finger and pointed to this rice field, "How many fields has your old man planted?" ”
Xu is looking at this Li Gongzi is quite kind, and he does not have the arrogant and domineering attitude of the rumored son, Wang Xin feels a lot more at ease.
"Back to Li Gongzi, the villain planted thirty acres of land, and there are more than ten acres of land."
"Oh, how many people are in the family?"
"There were seven people, and the villain's wife left early, leaving behind two sons. Thanks to the emperor's blessing, the two sons have become families, and a grandson and a granddaughter have been added. ”
"It's just that the grandson and granddaughter are still young, and on weekdays, the son and daughter-in-law are waiting in these fields, and the villain takes the grandchildren more often."
"No, it's raining today, and the two daughters-in-law finish work early, so the villain comes out to see ......"
Wang Xin looked up at the sky, and said with some worry: "When the seedlings are growing their waists, they are afraid of a heavy rainstorm...... If it is discounted, this year's harvest will probably be reduced by 30%! ”
Li Chenan nodded, and also pointed to the rice field: "The water in the field, you have to let some out." ”
"Well, seeing that this heavy rain is probably coming, the villain has to go to the slope to call his two sons, so he won't accompany his son."
"Wait a minute!"
Li Chen'an turned around and just saw Amu and Wang Zhenghaoxuan walking here with two teenagers.
The two teenagers didn't know each other.
Li Chenan beckoned to Wang Zhenghaoxuan, "Ask Zhou Zheng to bring a few people." ”
Wang Zhenghaoxuan was stunned: "Fight? ”
"Fight a fart, call a few people to do a favor!"
"Oh......"
Wang Zhenghaoxuan carried his knife on his back, turned around and flew over, startling Wang Xinyi.
"Childe ......"
Li Chenan waved his hand, "Let's go." ”
“…… Where to? ”
"Sit at home."
“…… This, the villain's house is a mess, Childe ......"
"It's okay, my house is a mess too!"
"In this way, when you arrive at your house, you let your two sons come over, and my men will listen to them to see where the ditch needs to be opened, and the more people will do it faster."
"Now that it's getting dark, I'm afraid the heavy rain is really coming, and it's good to drain some more water out."
Wang Xin moved his lips, his heart was refusing.
After all, he is an honest farmer, and he has never had the experience of dealing with this nobleman, nor does he have the heart to get acquainted with him.
Plant your own fields, pay your own taxes and grain, and live your own life of poverty and happiness.
When you are busy, you can help with your grandchildren, and when you are free, you can take your grandchildren with you.
But he didn't dare to refuse.
After all, the boy just now can fly!
It is a ranger who walks the rivers and lakes.
I heard that this kind of person kills people without blinking!
You can't offend them!
"Then, if Gongzi Li doesn't dislike it...... Please go to the house with the villain to sit down. ”
"Please lead the way!"
In this dripping rain, on this muddy ridge, Wang Xin walked towards Wangjiazhuang with a group of people extremely uneasy.
There are still a few farmers in the fields.
At this moment, they all straightened up and looked at the people who were looking at this way!
Of course they knew Wang Xin, but they didn't dare to ask at the moment.
These people did not wear official uniforms, but they were quite brightly dressed, and they were still holding the conspicuous flower paper umbrella, obviously Wang Xin did not have such rich relatives.
So who are these people?
Amu and Qiu Ba Lou and Zhuang Dingchun walked at the back.
At this moment, Qiu Balou asked in a low voice: "Senior Brother Amu, do you know what the regent wants to do?" ”
Amu's knife-like face looked at Li Chen'an's back, and replied coolly:
"He used to say that he wanted to go to the masses!"
