Chapter 142: Doctor Extermination

Fan Zheng saw this scene and quietly breathed a sigh of relief, in history, Zhao Xu directly appointed Zhang Dian as the sole minister, which opened the liquidation of the new party against the old party, and dragged the originally weak Great Song into the abyss again.

Fortunately, now Zhao Xu's imperial means are beginning to appear, and now the court is three-legged, temporarily maintaining the balance of the court.

"Qiqi official family, now that the Great Song Dynasty is in ruins, Weichen implores to immediately implement the apportionment into the mu, enrich the country and strengthen the people." As soon as he took office, Zhang Dian couldn't wait to propose.

"The old minister thinks it is inappropriate, the apportionment into the mu has not been done since ancient times, it is only a few days from the proposal to the present, I am afraid it is inappropriate to implement it rashly, and the ministers think that more research is needed, and then the implementation can be safe." Lu Dafang objected.

Although he took the initiative to propose that he agree to apportion the labor into the mu, after all, he represented the interests of the old party, and naturally he could delay it for a day.

Su Zhe also frowned, and the apportionment of labor into mu is also different from the new law that has been implemented, it is indeed not appropriate to be too urgent, and he agrees with Lu Dafang at the moment.

At this moment, above the court, the three prime ministers are two-to-one, and the new party is immediately at a disadvantage.

Zhao Xu frowned, he naturally admired the apportionment of the mu, but when the prime minister of the court and the prime minister objected, he was not easy to dictate the cadres.

"Fan Taicheng, this strategy is from your hand, what do you think!" Zhao Xu's words changed and pushed Fan Zheng out.

Fan Zheng reluctantly said: "It is a good policy to divide the labor into the mu, and this is an indisputable thing. ”

In an instant, the New Party's face was happy, but Fan Zheng's next sentence made their joy freeze on their faces.

However, even if a doctor obtains a miracle prescription, he should not directly use it on a large scale, but should first conduct medical experiments and confirm that it is feasible before he can implement it. The same is true for the apportionment into the mu, and Wechen suggested that it should be implemented in one place first to see its effect. Fan Zheng said again.

"Let's do it in one place first!" Zhao Xu was thoughtful.

"Wechen agrees!" Su Zhe echoed.

Su Zhe used to be an impassioned reformer, and he also joined Wang Anshi's Ordinance Division, but his ideas were at odds with the radical Wang Anshi's ideas, and he eventually withdrew from the Ordinance Division and went to the opposite side of the new law.

"Wechen agrees!" Zhang Dian also nodded, he knew that the strength of the new party was not enough, and it was difficult to forcibly promote the change of the law, and the implementation of the apportionment into the mu in one place could at least let the whole world know the benefits of the new law.

In an instant, the power of the court was unfavorable to the old party, and Lu Dafang sighed when he saw this, and had no choice but to echo it.

"I don't know where Fan Taicheng thinks it's better to implement it?" Zhao Xu asked again.

"The Land of Gyeonggi!" Fan Zheng said solemnly.

"The land of Gyeonggi? Cannot! As soon as Fan Zheng's words came out, the three prime ministers objected in unison.

Without him, just because the land of Gyeonggi is an important land of the Great Song Dynasty, once there is a mistake in the apportionment, the consequences may be unpredictable.

Fan Zheng explained: "Wechen's choice of the land of Gyeonggi is not a nonsense, first of all, the land of Gyeonggi is under our noses, and all the gains and losses can be known in time, which is the most convincing." ”

"The second is because the land of Gyeonggi has suffered from insect plague this year, and the doctor is implementing pesticide insecticide, which has been very effective, and the land in Gyeonggi is no longer threatened by insect plague, and the grain output has increased by about 30%.

"How can there be such a good thing?" Zhao Xu was overjoyed when he heard this.

Although he was very confident in the new law, he knew that once the levitation was implemented, the landlords and squires with a lot of land would definitely be dissatisfied, so he did not hesitate to give in and reduce taxes for officials in the world in order to win the support of officials.

If the pesticide yield can be increased by 30% with the implementation of the apportionment into the mu, the increase in field yield by 30% is enough to offset the tax on the apportionment into the mu, and the implementation of the new law will definitely get twice the result with half the effort.

"Yes, now pesticides are being sprayed outside Kaifeng City, basically controlling the insect plague, and the officials can see it at a glance." Fan Zheng said proudly.

Zhao Xu nodded slightly, and said to the courtiers: "You Aiqing are willing to accompany me to the outside of Kaifeng City." ”

"I don't dare to ask for ears!" The ministers bowed down one after another.

…………………………

Outside Kaifeng City, farmland is everywhere.

In the farmland, farmers wearing cotton wool masks carry modified wooden pumps on their backs and spray pesticides on their wheat fields.

"Official, please look! This is a pesticide-sprayed farmland, and there are no more pests! Kaifeng prefect Su Song personally led Zhao Xu and the courtiers to a wheat field.

I saw that this wheat field was rising gratifyingly, and there was not even a single insect, and a farmland not far away had not been sprayed with pesticides, and the ears of wheat that had just grown were crawling with dense pests! The wheat is in extremely poor condition.

"It's such a big gap!" The gap between the two wheat fields is visible to the naked eye, and even as the infestation continues, the wheat fields that are not sprayed with pesticides will be even worse.

Baiguan also nodded heavily, even if they didn't know how to farm, they could tell that the wheat field over there had a good harvest.

Su Song said with palpitations: "Fortunately, the doctor made pesticides in time, otherwise the fields in the entire Gyeonggi land would be like this, not only will this year's harvest be greatly reduced, but even a large number of insect eggs will be laid, endangering next year's harvest." ”

While everyone was talking, they saw a farmer come with a pump on his back and spray pesticides again on the crops that were full of pests.

"Be careful!"

Smelling the pungent smell of pesticides, Baiguan hurriedly persuaded Zhao Xu to retreat.

Zhao Xu shook his head and said: "It's okay for people to carry a pump to spray pesticides, and this smell is naturally fine." ”

"The official is wise! The pesticide dosage can only kill pests, there is no major harm to the human body, and it will not endanger food, and in two days, all the farmland in Gyeonggi will be sprayed with pesticides, and there will be no more pests to worry about. Su Song nodded.

Su Zhe frowned and said: "As far as I know, the doctor's pesticides are sold, could it be that Kaifeng Prefecture compels all farmers to buy pesticides?" ”

Zhang Dian raised his eyebrows, if this is the case, Su Song's move is no different from the Qingmiao Method.

Fan Zheng took over and said: "You don't know, the doctors are divided into three classes according to the situation of the farmers, one is the extremely poor farmers, and the doctors directly donate pesticides, which is also to conduct experiments first, so that the people can see the effect of pesticides." ”

Hundreds of officials have given correspondence courses, and the doctors can be said to be benevolent and righteous to the destitute households.

"Sure enough, after the pesticide spraying, the insect plague was immediately solved, the people witnessed the effect of the pesticides, and naturally bought and sprayed pesticides, this is the second kind, of course, there is the last one, the people have no money to buy pesticides, and the doctor allows them to spray pesticides first, and then pay for the medicine after harvesting!"

Su Song echoed: "This victory over the insect plague is due to the contribution of the doctors. ”

"So, the insect plague in Gyeonggi has been lifted?" Lu Dafang said in disbelief.

"Not only the insect plague in Gyeonggi, but I am afraid that all the insect plagues in the world will not be afraid in the future! Now doctors are studying the locust plague, spraying pesticides on their spawning grounds, and killing them with pesticides in advance before the larvae become plagues, and the insect plague that has harmed the millennium will no longer be able to threaten the Great Song Dynasty. Fan Zheng said proudly.

Hundreds of officials have been shocked, for a long time, the insect plague has been regarded as a natural disaster, but a warning from heaven, this is the first time that human beings have overcome natural disasters throughout the ages, relying on doctors!

"Fan Zheng's forensic family has this great prosperity, benefiting the country and the people; I can't fall behind, and I will definitely change the law to become stronger and revitalize the Great Song Dynasty. Zhao Xu was full of spirit and said straightforwardly.

"Official Shengming!"

This time, the hundred officials bowed their heads, and no one questioned it.
