Chapter 410: The Way to Live

Originally, Shen Huarou was a little distressed about those salts, but after seeing the seedlings that Meng Jingyao had bred that could increase yield, Shen Huarou no longer thought about them.

Seeing an object like a bow and shovel standing on the edge of the field, and then looking at the effect of Meng Jingyao after letting people try it, Shen Huarou couldn't say how enjoyable it was.

The food in the fields is the foundation of the people, and they live their lives well behind closed doors, and then lend a helping hand to others when they have spare energy.

"I'll try to plant these seedlings first, but there are no paddy fields at home, so you can find a way."

Meng Jingyao said calmly, and Shen Huarou answered it smoothly, "Okay, leave it to me." ”

After a pause, she thought again, "You are inconvenient now, you can use your mouth in the future, don't run around." ”

Shen Huarou was frightened by her doing everything herself, now she is not in Zhuangzi, and she is not the little girl she was back then.

But I saw Meng Jingyao smiling and touching her stomach, and she couldn't see anything there before she showed her feelings.

"Don't worry, I've got it, and I'm not going to joke with him.

I'm looking for you today to hand over the follow-up to you, and the most I can do in the future is to use my mouth. ”

Although she said it so refreshingly, Shen Huarou was still not at ease.

After returning home, he instructed He Yuanling, "Jingyao is pregnant now, so if there is nothing to do on weekdays, let Jinshan go back as soon as possible."

It's not to accompany her, it's to stare at her.

If no one was staring at her, she would have been able to go up to the house and uncover the tiles. ”

As soon as he heard that Meng Jingyao's girl was pregnant, He Yuanling was stunned for a while, as if he didn't react.

"Pregnant?"

"What do you mean by that?"

"Huh...... It's just incredible, she's a tomboy in my heart. ”

When an elder brother says this about his sister, even if it's a cousin, it's not appropriate.

So Shen Huarou gave him a roll of his eyes, "I don't have you to be a brother like this." ”

As a result, He Yuanling stalked her neck, "How can you be such a sister, Bo Chenglai was driven away by you for only two days, didn't you see his reluctance?"

Yaya and Rong Rong both hugged their uncle and cried, and you, who are mothers and sisters, are not soft-hearted. ”

Speaking of which, he just doesn't want his daughter to cry, is he really reluctant to let his brother-in-law cry?

Shen Huarou didn't want to talk to him much about this matter that had already passed, and it was not a matter for Bo Cheng to stay in Liangzhou, since he was going to study abroad, he would go.

He said he was going to Jizhou, where someone was waiting for him.

For a while, the base was busy again, and it was much faster and easier to use a plow than a human to turn the ground.

In recent years, Liangzhou has replaced grain with tax silver, but even so, there is no surplus grain in the warehouse after two wars.

Fortunately, the roads in Liangzhou have changed greatly in recent years, and there are fewer and fewer houses crushed by snow in winter.

In the blink of an eye, He Yuanling was busy again, "I'm going to go out, and I can't decide when I'll come back." ”

Shen Huarou didn't want to ask him specifically, but she didn't feel at ease if she didn't ask.

As a result, He Yuanling whispered two words in her ear, "Iron ore." ”

When Shen Huarou was still immersed in surprise, He Yuanling's voice sounded in her ears again, "Don't worry if you don't go in person." ”

"Okay, stay safe."

Shen Huarou didn't ask him to come back as soon as possible, only asked him to come back safely.

After two years of war, the strength of Liangzhou did not decrease but increased, and all over the country rushed to the name of King Liang.

Eat well, sound on time, and have a bereavement pension for the war dead.

It's just that the issue of rations and salaries for hundreds of thousands of soldiers is a large amount of money, not to mention the need to pay all kinds of taxes.

In the scorching summer heat, kilns, brick kilns, and carbon kilns began to be built in various places.

In the past, the hardest part of the conscription was digging canals, but now it is voluntary, and there are people rushing to get there.

Just because there is food to eat, there is wages.

It's a hot summer, and it's time for ice cubes to come on again.

Only earn the silver of the people of Liangzhou? Nature is impossible.

Taking advantage of the money he has earned in the past few years, Zhao Jing also wants to repair the embankment again.

As soon as the brick kilns in various places came out of the kiln, the price was lower than before, and the people who had a little extra money in their hands could also repair their houses at home, and if they had some surplus money, they overturned and rebuilt.

In the autumn, Zhao Zhaojing sent an excerpt to the imperial case.

After years of wars and snowstorms, the people were miserable and asked for tax reductions.

Liangzhou is not a place of production, and the people are not suffering for a day or two.

The emperor didn't allow it, but Zhao Jing then gave him another excerpt.

It is a method of making ice in summer, which is not edible but can be used for other purposes.

Thinking of the ice cubes that suddenly appeared everywhere this summer, the emperor had long been blushing at that benefit.

In the future, it will be his private treasury.

So the emperor waved his hand and reduced some taxes.

Zhao Jing has also figured it out for a long time, rather than blindly hiding it and being remembered, it is better to generously take it out and exchange it for something more suitable for them.

It can be regarded as a temporary stability for another one.

In general terms, it is also a matter of benefiting the country and the people, and when he protected the people of Liangzhou, he didn't think about the people of the world for half a minute, but what he could do was limited.

After the autumn harvest, the news of tax cuts spread widely in Liangzhou, and there was finally grain this winter.

When the first snow fell, a kiln of charcoal was transported to a street shop to sell.

All the shops are under the banner of Liang Wangfu, but the prices are the lowest ever.

Anyone who can squeeze out a little copper plate can afford a basket to spend the winter, and there is a long queue at the door of the shop, all of which are ordinary people with household registration.

After all, there is a quantity, and it can only be controlled in this way.

Anyway, this winter isn't too hard.

It's spring again, and the whole Lingcheng has special seedlings to be planted.

There are also people who are reluctant to try it easily, for fear that a year's hard work will be wasted and the family will have no food to eat.

There is always the courage to take the first step and take the lead, and the royal government promised to halve the tax revenue that year.

After the spring planting, the people saw that there were officials with rulers in the villages and townships to measure the mountain wasteland, and two months later, there were officials to the villages to post notices.

Wasteland is allowed to be reclaimed within the scope, and the first year is exempt from taxes, and the tax standard corresponding to wasteland is issued.

As soon as the news came out, it was like cold water falling into an oil pan and exploding.

In the past, it was not forbidden to reclaim wasteland, but the wasteland was a loss for at least the first three years, and it may not necessarily fall into their hands if it becomes cooked land later.

This time, is it for them to live?

Immediately after that, another notice came down, and the disabled veterans were conscripted again, gathered together to reclaim the wasteland, and distributed food.

When I arrived at the place, I found that there were not only disabled soldiers, but also young and strong soldiers, who trained half a day and farmed the land half a day.

And these disabled people are gone, at most they are doing logistics help, even those with broken legs can sit and peel beans, select fine seeds, and have food as long as they do things.

I thought that they could only become a waste that dragged down their families, but now they were given a visible way to live, and this road was given to them by the prince.
