Clothes or something, he will look at him less during the day in the future.

This kind of clothing should not be known, Tao Zhu in the backyard in the afternoon moved needlework, he needlework skillfully, and in the evening, a cotton vest and cotton pants were ready.

Li Qiao immediately put it on, and there were candles lit in the room, Tao Zhu looked at his outfit and quietly blushed.

Although it is a little strange, this person's slender limbs are exposed, which is very good-looking......

"Tomorrow you will also make a set, let's wear it together, a couple's outfit."

Li Qiao pulled his hand and pulled him to the shower.

He also wears?

This......

The next night, after taking a shower, the husband and wife changed into the same vest and big pants.

Tao Zhu, who is wearing modern clothes, looks like a college student with outstanding appearance at this time, coupled with his quiet temperament, the more he looks at it, the more attractive he becomes.

Li Qiao was very satisfied, stretched out his hand to hold Tao Zhu's body one size smaller than him in his arms, the big hand was not honest, touching here, pinching there, like seeing Tao Zhu for the first time, I liked it very much, and it was very rare.

The itch on his body made Tao Zhu couldn't help laughing, and he stretched out his hand to fight back.

Dressed like this, he likes it so much, even if he has been watching it for two days, he still can't see enough.

The cocoon on his hand has not disappeared, and the rough touch falls on Li Qiao's body, which naturally makes for something.

Just like last year, because it was hot in the house, Li Qiao moved the bed to the yard.

Mosquito nets are hung on the beds to keep mosquitoes out.

Smelling the smell of soaphorn on Tao Zhu's body, at this moment, the fatigue caused by reading and cultivation was all eliminated, and Li Qiao fell on the bed with him in his arms.

Another night of hard fun.

In the middle of the night, dark clouds quietly drifted in, hiding the stars behind him, and also cut off the high temperature for days, a rain fell, and the weather was much cooler.

The summer rain came violently and violently, so Xiao Wu came late again, the road was not easy to walk, and the carriage fell into potholes, delaying a lot of time.

Now that Xiao Wu's carriage has more dim sum, coupled with the Zheng family's roasted sausages, the carriage will definitely fall into the mud when he goes back, and he is afraid that he will be delayed for a long time on the road by relying on Xiao Wuyi.

It just so happened that Li Qiao's family wanted to send eggs and duck eggs to Mochiyue Tower, and this job is now in charge of Wang Xiuying - Wang Xiuying has resigned from the banker's long-term job, and she has also pushed the job of carrying water.

In fact, Li Qiao could dig a well on the side of the old house, but Li Qiao didn't do it for her.

Li Qiao has helped her for so long, she can't take advantage of it like this anymore, and now Li Qiao's family needs a long-term job, so she came to apply for a long-term job.

She has a lot of strength, and one person can top a strong man, so Li Qiao handed over the job of delivering eggs and duck eggs to Mochizuki Tower.

If Xiao Wu and Wang Xiuying go to the county seat together today, the two can help each other, but Li Qiao thought that he hadn't been to the county seat for a long time under the high temperature, so he called Tao Zhu to go to the county seat together.

Sure enough, halfway through, Xiao Wu's carriage and Wang Xiuying's ox cart fell into the mud several times, and with the help of Li Qiao and Tao Zhu, the four of them successfully arrived at the county seat.

After once again suppressing the idea of building a road, and scraping the mud off the soles of their shoes with small wooden sticks, the husband and wife led the ox cart into the city.

Parking the carriage in the backyard of the Mochizuki Tower, the two of them planned to go to the county town for a walk.

It's just that before they walked out of the back door of the Moon Tower, they were stopped by the king's shopkeeper.

"Hurry up, Lord Zhixian is in the private room on the second floor, and I want to see you by name."

The shopkeeper Wang leaned into Li Qiao's ear and said in a low and fast voice.

He was busy at the counter just now, and a guy came to him and said that Li Qiao and Tao Zhu were here, and he hummed and told this guy to entertain their husband well, but he didn't go to the backyard himself.

It's all so familiar, he doesn't have to be polite.

As a result, the man's words were heard by Jiang Zhixian, who came to Mochizuki Tower to consume, so he trotted to stop people.

Jiang Zhixian wanted to see him, Li Qiao must obey, and he and Tao Zhu went to the private room on the second floor of the front yard in the furthest corner.

There were two people who looked like small servants guarding the door of the private room, and when they saw that their husband and husband were coming, they first whispered softly, and got permission from Jiang Zhi County, and then pushed open the door of the private room and motioned for the husband and wife to go in.

After entering, Li Qiao and Tao Zhu were about to kneel and salute, but Jiang Zhixian directly smiled and said, "No need to be polite, I just came to taste the food of Moon Tower today." ”

He is still gentle and has no official pretensions.

And there is no use of "this official", it can be seen that he wants to keep a low profile.

Li Qiao understood, and shouted to Master Jiang in the appearance of the little guy just now, seeing that the table in Jiang Zhixian was empty, and knowing that the guy hadn't had time to serve the food, he said: "Master Jiang, the most important thing in Wangyue Tower is food, I don't know which flavor you prefer, students can recommend a few dishes to you." ”

"Actually, the food I miss the most is vermicelli." Jiang Zhixian said with a smile.

"Then you'll have to wait two months."

Sweet potatoes can be harvested in two months at the earliest.

Jiang Zhixian knows this: "This year, the farmers in our county have planted a lot of sweet potatoes, and everyone is rushing for vermicelli, so we can't let the farmers' wishes be disappointed." ”

The farmers in the county have planted so many sweet potatoes, and the vermicelli must not go wrong.

"The sage wrote an article last month to discuss how to get out of the vicious circle of cheap grain hurting peasants and rice hurting the people."

"At the beginning of the book, the saint borrowed the sentence in the food and goods chronicle of the Book of Han: 'It is very expensive, and it hurts the people; It is very cheap and hurts the peasants. If the people are injured, they will be scattered, and if the peasants are injured, the country will be poor' to emphasize the connection between the high and low levels of food, the people, and the country. ”①

"But your vermicelli seems to have jumped out of this circle."

Jiang Zhixian looked at Li Qiao's eyes with satisfaction.

There is a bumper harvest of sweet potatoes, and it stands to reason that the price of sweet potatoes will fall, after all, scarcity is expensive.

But the price of sweet potatoes did not fall last year.

This year's sweet potato, the price will not fall.

Therefore, after reading the new article written by Shengshang, he immediately thought of Li Qiao's noodles.

Relying on vermicelli, the higher the yield of sweet potatoes for Pingcheng farmers, the more money they earned.

Heicheng jumped out of the strange circle of Shengshang's concern, and that was his political achievement.

The author has something to say:

The annotated one is from the Hanshu Food and Goods Chronicles.

Chapter 68 The Sweet Potato Madness in the County Work harder than before

"Don't dare, don't dare, students are also tossing around, just lucky."

Facing Jiang Zhixian's approving eyes, Li Qiao was very modest.

At the same time, he decided to go to the bookstore later, and it turned out that the saint had written a small essay again, and he had to buy it and study it.

In the past few years, because the policy topics of the imperial examination have always revolved around the Shengshang's essays, every time a new work comes out in the Sheng, it must spread all over Dasheng's bookstores at a very fast speed.

Recently, the weather has been hot, and he hasn't been to the county seat for a long time, and he doesn't know that the saint has launched a new work.

"It's not a fluke, it's that you're really talented in it. Young man, amazing. ”

praised Li Qiao, Jiang Zhixian said: "This year, the farmers in the county have planted a lot of sweet potatoes, and the farmers are rushing to the vermicelli, so the sweet potato workshop in Sanliu Village cannot live up to the expectations of the farmers in the county." ”

Last year, the villagers of Sanliu Village did a big job, and this year, the farmers of the whole county are gearing up to do a big vote.

The reason why he was not transferred was also to do a big job.

It just so happened that Shengshang had just written such an article, This is simply tailor-made for vermicelli, and he will lead the farmers of Pingcheng to jump out of the strange circle mentioned by Shengshang.

Answer this article with practical actions.

So he had to do a job for the people of Sanliu Village first.

Last year, the sudden appearance of vermicelli, coupled with the lack of awareness, failed to maximize the benefits in a hurry, but this year there is plenty of preparation, and it must be a big one.

"After the wheat harvest, I roughly counted the number of acres of sweet potatoes planted by farmers in the county, and there were 170,000 acres of sweet potatoes planted in 170 towns and villages in the county."

That's a staggering number, because the total area of land in Pingcheng is only 400,000 acres.

This shows that the farmers in the county only planted a small amount of millet, sorghum, corn and other miscellaneous grains, and the rest of the fields were all planted with sweet potatoes.

Li Qiao's eyes widened when she heard this number.

300,000 acres of sweet potatoes?

……

God, this leads to a big deal.

Tao Zhu was also shocked by this number, his imagination was limited, he couldn't imagine how many 300,000 mu there was......

"There is enough rain this year, and I estimate that the yield per mu of sweet potatoes is about the same as last year, and I can harvest 2,000 catties per acre."

"If it is calculated according to 2,000 catties, the 300,000 mu of sweet potatoes can harvest 60,000 catties of sweet potatoes. It's a mountain of sweet potatoes. ”

Jiang Zhixian sighed.

The farmers of Pingcheng were so excited by the silver in Sanliu Village that they were red-eyed, so they were so crazy this year.

If the noodle business goes wrong, the farmers in the county will go crazy.

Therefore, the sweet potato workshop in Sanliu Village is the focus of the county in the second half of the year, and there must be no omission, and this sweet potato mountain must be turned into a silver mountain.

"Farmers must be eager to cash in after planting so many sweet potatoes, but the daily output of sweet potato workshops is limited, so in order to prevent chaos from turning good things into bad things, I have an idea here, you can listen to it."

Jiang Zhixian already had a plan in mind.

First of all, production must be expanded.

Only by expanding production can farmers who are anxious to make cash in need feel at ease.

However, the practice of vermicelli must also be kept secret.

Therefore, he hopes that Sanliu Village, regardless of the men, women and little brothers, will enter the sweet potato workshop to make noodles this winter, so as to increase the daily output of noodles as much as possible.

60,000 catties of sweet potatoes, 6 catties of sweet potatoes out of 10,000 catties of starch, then Pingcheng can have 10,000 catties of starch this year.

Roughly calculated according to the ratio of one pound of starch to one pound of vermicelli, then even if the sweet potato workshop makes 20,000 catties of vermicelli a day, it will take 5,000 days to consume these starches.

5,000 days, that's nearly 14 years.

Therefore, this account is not unknown, and it is really scary to death.
