The Li clan is more united!

Even though some people were not happy, they thought of what Li Yuan and his family did for everyone, so they stopped thinking.

There should be a lot of production in the field, and they are just producing some sweet potatoes.

Compared with what Li Yuan and his wife did for them, it is not worth mentioning at all!

Only when Shao'an and his family are good, as members of the Li family, can they follow the light.

Otherwise, who will be fed and take care of them?

Don't you see people from other villages, who are now suffering?

Thinking like this, people who are not happy, in the case of comparison, take it for granted.

Li Yuan didn't go to the meeting this time, so he didn't know the clan's decision.

When he knew, it was Wang Can who came back and said it.

However, as soon as Wang Can finished speaking, she didn't have time to express her opinion, and she saw her father and Li Qinghua coming over.

"Yuanniang, your Uncle Hua came over and had something to say to you, and he may need your help."

"Is it for the sake of paying taxes? Channiang was just talking to me about this. ”

"Yes, it's about paying taxes! Yuanniang, since everyone has decided to wait for the sun to set and harvest sweet potatoes, do you think you should go to the yamen in person and tell Lord Xu about this? ”

"Naturally, yes! Even if you don't come with Uncle Hua, I will go to the county seat in person. In addition to asking the head of the Min family and Brother Cao to help deliver the grain, there is also a time when we have already determined to leave, and I plan to send the dried meat, dried sweet potatoes and other things I have made these days to Brother Xie. Besides, it's the third year of junior high school today, or Junzi and Zhengzi will have to take the college exam in a few days, so it makes sense that I have to write a letter to the past. ”

As soon as Old Man Li heard what he was going to send meat, he replied: "Yuanniang, you want to send something, then wait a minute, Master will go back and dig some sweet potatoes, and you can send it by the way." In addition, you ask Qingwei Niang if she gave birth, whether it is a man or a woman, let's go back to the family tree. Then there is the fact that you let Junzi and Zhengzi feel more relieved, it doesn't matter if you can't pass the test, anyway, you are already a child, and it's a big deal to take the test next year. In short, you must treat it calmly and don't rush! ”

"Good! Then you go dig sweet potatoes first! ”

Old man Li answered and left.

Li Yuan looked at Li Qinghua: "Uncle Hua, do you want to write down the recipe for how to naturally cultivate sweet potatoes first, and then I will decide whether to send the letter to Brother Xie according to Lord Xu's attitude." Now that it's hot, the problem that can be solved at one time, let's try not to run a second time. ”

"Done! Yuanniang, your pen and ink, borrow your uncle's use! ”

"Good!"

Because it is summer, the days are long and the nights are short, and Liuyun County closes the city gate according to the hour of darkness and dawn.

By the time Li Yuan and Wang Can drove the carriage to Liuyun County, it was already the end of the unitary time.

It's just that at this point in time, the sun has not yet set, and it is hot.

Liuyun County, which used to be lively, is now extremely deserted.

The open city gate, except for the guards and Li Yuan's carriage, was empty, and there was no one to be seen at all.

"Sister, shall we go directly to the county office?"

"Go ahead, I guess Lord Xu hasn't paid yet. After saying this, if you run into Zhang Zhutou, then you don't need to go to Cao's Mansion. If we don't run into it, then let's go to Caofu again, and after giving the things over, we will go back to Banyan Lane. ”

"Good!"

When Xu Chongguang didn't come to Liuyun County to take office, it was a rich place that everyone wanted to come.

It is also through the relationship of his own family that he can bypass those Jinshi, Tongjinshi and others who are waiting for the official position, and take the position of county commander on the side of the ministry.

He originally thought that last year's snow disaster was serious, and it didn't make Liuyun County suffer any losses, so even if there was any disaster this year, it would be able to survive.

It's just that he never expected that he would have the urge to run away after coming here to take office for less than half a year.

Let's not talk about the lack of water here, but how hot was it that day?

Even if a person walks in the sun, not to mention the smoke from the cloth shoes he wears under his feet, there will be a feeling that he is going to be sunburned at any time.

As far as he knew, there were many places in the cloud country, and it was normal for not a drop of rain to fall for a year or two.

However, in this Liuyun County, it has only been a few months, the wells have dried up, the surface has dried up, the grass and trees have withered, and even the water in the river is not much.

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes and experienced it himself, he would have thought it was ridiculous.

Fortunately, there was Xie Yanzhi's reminder before, and the people also consciously hoarded food and water.

As long as you don't go out in the sun and pay attention to the thatch on the roof at all times, you won't die.

It's just that it's only June, and the climate is abnormally like this, and he is also panicked in his heart, and he is very afraid of being guessed by Xie Yanzhi.

Heavy rain, still torrential rain.

The upstream levees are now non-existent......

Just the thought of that image kept him awake at night.

It is now the third day of the sixth lunar month, and the new prefect still has three days to take office, and I don't know if the prefect will approve the case he wrote.

If he doesn't, he'll have to prepare for the worst!

The terrain of Liuyun County is extremely low, and he doesn't want to end up in an empty city or countless casualties among the people when he aspires to be a good official in the first year and is ready to display his ambitions.

But now the little money in the city is gone.

Even if there are a few who have not left, their families have been sent away.

In this way, he just wanted to do something, but he didn't know where to start.

Just when Xu Chongguang was so sad that he couldn't even eat, Li Yuan came.

Seeing Li Yuan, Xu Chongguang cheered up and asked, "Brother and sister came here on a hot day, I don't know what happened?" ”

"It's a good thing for adults! Lord Xu, we plan to harvest the sweet potatoes in Lijiaao from tonight. The villagers knew that the yamen was in difficulty because of our cloud country's tax exemption, so they decided to pay taxes as before. It's just that this tax is paid with sweet potatoes, I don't know if it can be done? Also, our sweet potatoes are made of exotic seeds, and the yield is extremely high. ”

"Really? Can the yield per mu reach double the previous level? ”

"It should be possible, but you have to take someone over to see it yourself. In addition, this sweet potato has a high yield, and it is larger than all the sweet potato varieties in my Yun country, I wonder if adults have any thoughts about this? For example, write a song and return to Beijing to play this matter! If you don't have this idea here, for the sake of my Li family, then I can only bypass you and ask Brother Xie to find Chen Hao and Chen Gongzi for help. If it is inconvenient for Chen Gongzi, then I can only ask the Zhenguo Marquis Mansion where my aunt is married to help. ”

For Xu Chongguang, if what Li Yuan said is true, it is a major achievement of his, how can he have no ideas?

"Brother and sister, Brother Shao'an Xian is now preparing for the township test, don't trouble him with this kind of thing. It's your aunt, she's just a woman in the house after all, and she doesn't know much about this. Since this is a matter under my jurisdiction, I will keep an eye on it myself. Of course, if it is really prolific, when I read the book, I will definitely not forget to mention that this thing was planted by the Li clan. ”

Master Bai, who didn't know when he came in, said in a timely manner: "My lord, it's the Li family of Lijiaao in Liuyun County. ”
