One hundred and thirty!

There are so many jinshi, and after the palace examination to select the final ranking, Sheng Hong will have to award these people officials.

In the past few days, he has listened to Sheng Hong's chatter a few times, saying that there are too many talents in his hands and he doesn't know where to stuff them.

Only when there is no one available in Sheng Hong's hands, then Sheng Hong will consider letting the little brother take up the official position in the DPRK and China.

Alas, at present, I can only suffer from Shen painting Xu Ying first.

"Speaking of which, I heard from my eldest brother and sister-in-law yesterday that if the saint is willing, the two of them also want to sign up for this Tuntian Langzhong. When it comes to growing crops, the two of them don't lose to anyone. ”

Tao Zhu thought of this and hurriedly said to Li Qiao.

As soon as he said this, Li Qiao burst out loud: "Big brother and sister-in-law still have this mind?" ”

"No, the eldest brother put his hands on his hips when he said this, but he was proud."

Tao Zhu recalled the tone and expression of Li Liang when he said this, and couldn't help but laugh.

"Big brother should be proud, he is telling the truth, when it comes to farming, he will not lose to anyone. It seems that the eldest brother is really excited about this matter, so the Tuntian of the Holy Shang should go very well. ”

"It's going to be going well. If it was me at the beginning, I would definitely have to sign up, and I had no land at home and could only go to open up the wasteland, which was too bitter. ”

What he planted in the past was not a wasteland that belonged to the imperial court, he was a real wasteland, planting in the woods.

When Li Qiao heard this, he immediately put the tea bowl in his hand on the small table on the side, and he grabbed Tao Zhu's hand: "Life is better now." ”

"Not really." Tao Zhu stared at Li Qiao's face for a few seconds, and the smile on his face couldn't hold back.

If the hardships he endured before were to meet this person, he would be willing to suffer ten times more.

The husband and wife were looking at each other affectionately, and Li Xiaorui's shout came from a distance, he had already dug up a basket of wild vegetables, begging for praise!

Li Xiaorui returned with a full load, Li Qiao and Tao Zhu praised him fiercely, and then asked people to send this small basket of wild vegetables to the small kitchen of the school hall.

At noon today, the family had dinner at the school hall.

In the school hall, Meimei ate the freshest wild vegetables in spring, and in the afternoon, the family took a carriage back to the city.

Digging wild vegetables is not a lot of work for the three little ones, so they are still alive and well when they get home.

Their interest in bicycles has not diminished at all, and the three of them have a bicycle race in front of the house.

The three emperors and grandsons who were taking riding and archery classes across the wall could not hide their envy when they listened to his chatter.

Bicycles are so fun, but their good dad won't buy them a bike for fear of losing their plaything......

In early March, the six princes set off for the province of Western Shan to prepare for a field trip. If he can't win against the other princes in terms of results, then he must earn a wave of sympathy points in action.

At this time, Sheng Hong's four Tuntian Lang had candidates, all of whom were sixth- and seventh-grade petty officials at the bottom.

There are more than 200 households in the Shengjing area who have signed up to go south to farm, adding up to less than 1,800 people.

Escorted by the forbidden army, this group of people embarked on the journey south to Tuntian.

Other places are like Shengjing, the government released news, the people signed up, and when a hundred households were gathered, the government sent people to escort them south.

At this time, it was snowing heavily.

In the third month of the lunar calendar, it snowed, which cannot be said to be particularly abnormal, but it is definitely not normal.

Sheng Hong frowned, what the farmers needed was spring rain as expensive as oil, not heavy snow.

This one-foot-thick snow may freeze the wheat seedlings.

Fortunately, it only snowed for one day, and the weather was gloomy for two days in a row, and the sun soon came out.

The snow melted.

Farmers don't need to work hard to irrigate their crops.

But the temperature is still low.

Moreover, this snow only fell in Shengjing and Jibei Province, not in Xishan Province, and the spring drought in Xishan Province is a sure thing.

Li Qiao couldn't help but get nervous, this year's locust plague is really going to affect Xishan Province.

Chapter 224 Li Qian earns money, Li Yuning marries, but jumps Zheng Qianqian is born, and the locust plague is coming

If the locust plague is really unavoidable, then all Li buckwheat can do is to plant crops well.

Spring snow fell in Shengjing and Jibei Province, greatly alleviating the drought situation.

He no longer needs irrigation for the 190,000 mu of cultivated land in Jibei Province, saving a lot of effort from the tenant farmers.

Half of the 190,000 mu of cultivated land is planted with staple grains such as wheat and potatoes, and half is planted with cotton and soybeans.

Needless to say, cotton is definitely better to grow than to buy someone else's.

As for soybeans, he heard that locusts don't like soybeans, so he planted some and tried it himself.

In addition, his water conservancy project in Jibei Province was progressing steadily, his wages were high, the money was in place, there were many workers willing to work, and the magistrates did not dare to slack off, so the progress of the project was quite gratifying.

At the same time, he dispatched a group of carpentry students in the school hall and asked these students to hurry up and catch the bicycle order.

If this year's locust plague really spreads to the three provinces, leaving many areas in these three provinces without harvesting, then in addition to planting his own crops, another way for him is to buy grain.

He needed money to buy food, and he had to make good use of the bicycle as a big killer.

For three months, the popularity of the bicycle has not stopped, and the orders have been increasing. This is a novelty, and the whole market is unique, and such a large market is only three months old, so it is naturally not filled.

Not to mention that he also launched children's bikes.

Compared with the 28 bars of adults, children's bicycles have more patterns.

There are two-wheeled, three-wheeled, and four-wheeled, some with baskets in front and some with loads behind.

Some pedals are in the middle of the car, and some are on the front wheels.

Some can also carry people.

In short, the children's market is also very wide, and he aimed at this group and launched more than a dozen bicycles in one go.

This can be fried in Shengjing's children's circle.

I bought it and walked around the streets all day long, not just to show off, but more for fun.

It's so much fun, it's more fun than a scooter.

If you can't afford it, you will watch others ride and play with envy.

According to the style, the price of children's bicycles is between fifty-eight taels and two hundred and ninety-nine taels, compared with the high price of adult bicycles, this price is really super conscientious, and the average small rich family can afford it.

Such a money-making machine, of course, you must seize the time to make a wave of money.

In fact, with Dasheng's existing grain stock, it is not difficult to withstand this wave of natural disasters.

Because the people of Dasheng have the habit of hoarding grain.

This time and space is too easy to encounter a famine year, although Sheng Jun Shenghong father and son are both Ming Jun, but Dasheng has only been established for a few decades, and now those elderly people are from the war era, and they have experienced war, how can they not love to hoard food?

Regardless of whether it is in the era of war or in times of peace and prosperity, it is hard currency, and it is more reassuring to have food at home than silver.

Moreover, at this time, transportation and commerce were not developed, and even if the food in the local supermarket was robbed, it could be purchased from the Internet.

In Dasheng, the local grain has been robbed, and the rich and noble still have the ability to go to other places, but how can ordinary people have this ability?

Unless a group of people gather together to be outcasts.

Therefore, the matter of hoarding grain is engraved in the bones of Dasheng people, from the top nobles to ordinary people, those who have the ability to hoard grain will hoard some food at home.

Only when there is food in the heart will there be no panic.

Of course, ordinary people hoard grain for themselves, but those rich and noble people hoard grain not necessarily for themselves.

Some black-hearted people love to sell high-priced grain in famine years.

However, in any case, the current Dasheng as a whole is not short of food.

Since people have grain in their hands, what Li Qiao can do is to hold on to the silver, so that even if the price of food rises in disaster years, then he can also afford to buy grain.

Li Liang's rampant and unscrupulous silver grabbing made many people envious.

Even Zhuang Wen said that Li Qiao's speed of money is better than that of the money minting craftsmen in the Ministry of Industry.

However, without the prickly heads of the third prince and the fifth prince, everyone is just joking in their mouths.

There's no way, who let Sheng Hong protect Li Qiao now.

Moreover, Li Qiao did not compete with those old nobles, Li Qiao has newly opened up the market, and the descendants of these nobles want bicycles, what can they do?

Of course, I bought it.

Instead of letting your offspring gamble and spend a lot of money, it's better to spend money on a bicycle.

In late March, the two sons of Li Yuning, Ming Xi and the governor of Ming embarked on the road to Beihu Province together with Li Liang and Li Ershan.

Although it is very reluctant, the day of parting will still come.

Li Shu cried into a tearful person, Li Yu'an also cried with tears in her eyes, and Tao Zhu and Li Qiao also had red eyes.

It was Li Yuning, although she also shed tears, but she had a smile on her face.

The parting was only temporary, knowing that she would not stay in Beihu Province all the time, knowing that she would also be admitted to Jinshi, and she had to enter Beijing after three years.

Besides, when she went to Beihu Province, she still wanted to show her strength.

Li Yuning got married, and the dowry showed a wave in Shengjing City, which was really ten miles of red makeup.

In addition to the 50,000 taels of silver prepared by Li Qiao Taozhu, the elders of Li Liang Wang Guihua, Li Gu, Li Shu, and Li Dazhong, who was far away in Pingcheng, gave her another 50,000 taels of silver.

Just pressing the box of silver is 100,000 taels, not to mention her own small treasury, no one knows that the people of the Li family are paid, Li Qiao is also generous, she has saved 50,000 taels over the years.

In addition, the grange of the dowry, Li Qiao, bought her 2,000 acres of first-class land in the Ming family's mansion and the capital of Beihu Province.

Therefore, Li Yuning, an older village girl who grew up in the countryside, does not count gold, silver, jewelry, fabrics, furs and other objects, but only silver, land and land have a huge amount of 200,000 taels.

Also, in addition to these traditional dowries, Li Qiao also prepared 50 bicycles for her, both adults and children, so that she could take them and give them away.

This dowry is not only rich, but also novel. Not only are ordinary girls envious, but also high-ranking nobles.

This is the confidence of a lifetime.
