Chapter 295: I feel that Nanqi's fortune is coming
This year is a little different from previous years, as soon as I arrived in the capital of Layue Nanqi, it was snowing heavily, and the road was difficult, although there were a few heavy snowfalls this year, but after Chinese New Year's Eve, the weather began to improve, and every day there was a miserable white sun hanging in the sky, which could not give people much warmth, and even the cold wind blew more severely, but it did not affect the work, which was also a gift from heaven.
The wharf area on the outskirts of Beijing is in full swing, and countless conscripted laborers are busy widening the river, they have set up bamboo cages filled with pebbles to block the river that is almost bottoming out, revealing the riverbed full of silt.
The riverbed was full of silt, and even if the river was widened, the water would not be too deep, and the big boats would not be able to pass.
The solution is not difficult, it only needs to dig deep, but it requires more people and more money.
The matter was reported to the emperor, and the emperor, who had already found gold, gritted his teeth and agreed, isn't it just to spend money?
"Try to show as many signs as possible, pay as much as you want, and be sure to complete this before the spring rises."
Time is running out, and if you want to see the effect, you have to have a lot of silver to smash down, and the emperor is very painful.
Three days later, the entire area around the wharf in the suburbs of Beijing was full of people, and the riverbed was almost full, attracting many people who had nothing to do to go to see the excitement.
"Childe, Pier Pier"
Steward Zhu went all the way to Yan's house and found Yan Mude, he ran too quickly and couldn't breathe, Yan Mude didn't urge him, and waited for him to almost recover before asking, "Why is Steward Zhu so anxious?" ”
Steward Zhu arrived in the capital a year ago, to send grain to Yan Mude, last year was the first year of the implementation of the new regulations of Yongxing Xingxing, Steward Zhu poured into the ground with all his heart, one point more than the harvest in previous years, and the extra was his, naturally he was happy, and the team that sent grain was a little more than before, and he thought about going back after the New Year.
I went to the suburbs of Beijing early this morning to see the excitement, "The mud turned out of the riverbed is shiny and black, if you get it into the ground to dry and cure the mature soil, how much grain will you produce?" ”
He had been dealing with the fields all day long, where could he see such fertile mud, his eyes were shining, and he regretted that the fields he took care of were too far away from the capital, otherwise he would have to take everything away.
Yan Mude didn't know how to govern the land, and asked if the fat mud could be used directly, and Manager Zhu shook his head, saying that it would harden as soon as the sun basked, which was not conducive to the growth of crops, but it could cure the mature soil, and it was very laborious.
Yan Mude remembered that there was a wasteland not far from the outskirts of the city, and that land was barren just because it was too thin, and there was no harvest at all if the grain was planted, and the key was that the land was royal.
"Take it, childe, you must take it."
Steward Zhu rubbed his hands, "Now is the right time, the grass in the field is dry, after taking it down, the fire will be clean, and the grass and wood ash can still fertilize the land, and then let people transport the mud, and take care of it after the spring, and it will be fertile again." ”
Yan Mude came to his senses, "Let's go, I'll take you to see that land, and if it's suitable, invite my father into the palace." ”
In order to prepare to find the land, he also specially invited the people who managed these royal granges to join him, and the emperor met Yan Huailin the next day.
The Yan family has behaved well in the past year, and Yan Mu'an has sent money back several times, the emperor sees the Yan family is more and more pleasing to the eye, and learns that Yan Huailin is here to ask for a royal Zhuangzi that has not produced at all, the emperor is still a little curious, Yan Huailin did not hide it, and said that he wanted to use the fat mud on the river beach.
The emperor agreed without thinking about it, one is thin land, and the other is less than fifty acres, it is not appropriate to take it out as a reward, and it is not worth the effort, "When I gave you the title, I should have given you some genius Zhuangzi or mansions, but you know the situation of the imperial court, since you yourself have taken a fancy to that Zhuangzi, then I will reward you." ”
Yan Huailin bowed his hand, "Thank you, Your Majesty." “
Yan Mude, who had the land in hand, was a good hand, and invited him to deal with this matter, and asked someone to spend money or something Yongxing Xingxing to bear in the early stage, and soon many people found that many people were digging on the river beach and just scooped up the mud from the riverbed, and many old farmers also reacted that this black mud was a good thing, and the people in charge were also willing to let them take away the mud, and it was another situation on the river beach in less than two days.
The people on the riverbed are dredging and widening the river, the people on the riverbank are digging up the fat mud, what ox carts and mule carts are all dispatched, and those who don't have any cars at home can only go to labor, although they can't get too much mud, but it's good to get some back and spread it in the vegetable garden, the government is worried that those people don't know how to use these fat mud, and they also specially consulted Zhu Steward, and posted notices in the suburbs, for fear that these people don't know how to ruin next year's spring ploughing.
The emperor was very relieved to learn that the lively outside had not yet finished his people and courtiers were so busy, and he felt that the fortune of the Southern Qi Dynasty was coming.
Also feeling that the luck is coming is Yongchang, since he became a big boss, the rules and regulations that fell on him in the past have slowly loosened, and they are gone, and now on the border line of the chaotic land, it is a hegemon, which gang may be beaten if he looks at him more, the key is that he also found a way to get money under the prompting of Yan Qiuwen, and robbed it clearly!
Carrying a knife that was still dripping blood, the widow king with a mask sat on horseback, "Go back and tell Fangfang, 50,000 taels of silver will spare his life, and if the master can't see the silver in three days, he will step on your mountain guard." ”
Too many weak bullies have made him lose his fun, his eyes fall on the land of chaos, a plan is formed in his mind, he wants to take over the border, seal the entrance and exit and slowly move forward, he wants to force the people of the land of chaos out, he wants to swallow the land full of mines.
"Within half a month, clean up the forces that belong to this line, take over their territory and manpower, release the news, buy a large number of materials here in the chaotic land, Yan Qiuwen, you can do this, as long as someone sends supplies, take them all."
He wants to cut off all supplies in the Land of Chaos, and let people constantly cause destruction and constant pressure, so that he will not believe that the people inside are not crazy.
As for the defenders here, just write a letter to the generals here and tell them that Black Wind Guard is now a mercenary of the imperial court.
The development of the leader has changed the style, and the people below have been affected, their eyes are shining, their minds are full of smashing and robbing, and they are also fighting to force the bodyguards, and recently they have fought twice a day and a big battle for three days, whether it is tacit understanding or combat makeup, they are growing rapidly, and they feel that they have inexhaustible strength all over their bodies, and they are extremely eager for military merit.
