Chapter 330: Promoted to Nongsang Sicheng
The big trees hugged by the two people pointed straight to the sky like dense halberds. In this forest, which is extremely far away from Taiyuan Continent, even the sunlight can't penetrate it.
"Whew!"
With the sound of heavy breathing, a staggering figure, with a black robe, fluttered towards the depths of the forest. His steps were stray and his breath was fluctuating, but his goal was always clear, and there must have been no confusion.
"Bang!"
The light and shadow in front of him floated, and the black shadow lost his mind and collided with a big tree where the two of them were hugging. There were a lot of sawdust, and the trees that were more than ten feet tall were directly smashed into pieces, and the dense canopy shook and fell straight down.
"Ahem!"
A violent cough sounded, and the black shadow was knocked down by the tree, stood up, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and staggered forward.
Ten zhang, one hundred zhang, one thousand zhang......
"Whew!"
Something almost fell in the shadows, the wind howled, and a figure jumped down from a nearby tree and picked up the dark gold mask on the ground.
The prince of the evil path fell into the dust, and when he saw the slender and boneless snow-white wrist that appeared in his field of vision, a smile finally appeared on the corner of his mouth:
"Finally back. ”
......
After staying in Langya City for about seven or eight more days and arranging everything, Wang Tai finally left. Yang Ji personally saw him off at the gate of the city.
"Yang Ji, the people take food as the sky. I will entrust Langya City to you. A lot of familiarity, I am waiting for your future appearance in Cangxu City. ”
Before leaving, Wang Tai held Yang Ji's hands, spoke seriously, and his eyes were full of expectations.
"Don't worry, sir. Students will definitely give it their all. ”
Yang Ji bowed and said.
Wang Tai smiled. Didn't say much. After patting Yang Ji on the shoulder, he boarded the carriage on the official road, and a large group of guards hugged back and forth, heading towards the place where they came.
Langya County was in ruins, and sent Wang Tai away, Yang Ji did not hesitate. Turned around and walked towards the Yamen of the Nongsang Division.
"My lord, this is the Yamen of the Nongsang Division. ”
Through the streets and alleys, alleys, and alleys, under the leadership of several civil officials, Yang Ji finally found the yamen of Nongsang Division. It was an extremely old building, and the gray tiles were lined up and looked like they were about to fade.
The whole yamen is simple, and the only thing that catches the eye is a few pillars of unknown wood under the eaves outside. But these pillars are exposed to the sun and rain. All of them are cracked.
The whole yamen smelled of oldness.
"Why is the door of the Yamen of the Nongsang Division still locked?"
Yang Ji stood in front of the yamen, looked at the two mottled copper buckles, and frowned slightly.
"Back to my lord, there are actually very few people from this Nongsang Si Yamen. It's been open for at least five or six years. ”
Next to him, he was thin, looked honest, and had a wry smile on his face.
"Oh?"
Yang Jijian raised his eyebrows. Although I know that Wendao is declining, it is not as good as martial arts. But see this scene. Yang Ji was still a little surprised:
"What about the former Nongsang Sicheng, doesn't he come here either?"
The two officials of the Nongsang Division looked at each other, and the bitterness on their faces increased a little:
"My lord, the previous Nong Sangsi actually died five or six years ago. He had been inspecting the water conservancy outside, and after many years, he finally fell ill and was old. I couldn't hold it and died. ”
"We have also asked the court to appoint a new Nongdie. Although the imperial court agreed, it has been five or six years, and it has not been settled. The yamen of the Nongsang Division has always been so empty. ”
The two said helplessly.
"Who has been responsible for the agricultural and mulberry water conservancy in Langya County in the past few years?" Yang Ji was surprised.
"It's just the two of us. ”
The two civil officials confessed, "The new Nongsang Sicheng has not arrived. That's all we can do. Fortunately, I have always been responsible for the affairs of Nongsang, so there have been no major accidents. ”
Yang Ji was secretly surprised, he finally knew why Wang Tai was so light that he could get the token of Nong Sang Sicheng. Nong Sangsi, who dares to be new, has never taken office.
These two civilian officials, Yang Ji didn't pay much attention to them before. At this time, I heard that the two of them had been responsible for the nongsang of Langya County, and my heart suddenly became awe-inspiring.
Pushing open the door, Yang Ji lifted his robe and stepped over the threshold and walked in. A strong smell of dust came to his nose, Yang Ji frowned slightly, and as far as he could see, the inside of the yamen was dim, and the floor, walls, and copywriting were all covered with a thick layer of dust.
The two civil servants were right, it hadn't been open to the public for at least five or six years.
The yamen was very quiet, Yang Ji walked over and found that on the wooden strip copywriting facing the door in the hall, there were dense drawings one by one.
Yang Ji glanced at it, and it was full of various drawings about farmland and water conservancy.
"Since Lord Chen passed away, no one has touched here. He put these drawings here. Some of them were from the yamen, and some of them were painted by himself. ”
One of the officials said.
"Painted it yourself?"
Yang Ji's heart moved, and he suddenly stretched out his hand, brushed away the two above, took out the third drawing, took it, shook it, and said suspiciously:
"Doesn't this mountain map seem to have anything to do with agriculture and water conservancy? What did he draw this picture for?"
The reason why Yang Ji recognized this map was very simple, because it was actually a topographic map of the mountains near Jin'an City. And a figure like this,...... Yang Ji took a look, and there seemed to be a lot more. It doesn't seem to be an ordinary agricultural water map.
"We don't know about that anymore. ”
The two smiled bitterly and shook their heads, "It's just that I heard that Master Chen seemed to say it before his death, as if there was a Nongsang Guku." ”
"Nongsang Guku, what is this?"
Yang Ji's face was surprised. For the first time, he found that his predecessor, Master Cheng Chen, seemed to be doing something else interesting.
"Adults may not know that all the inheritance of the agricultural and mulberry water conservancy of this dynasty is the previous dynasty. It is the saying of this Nongsang Yamen, which has also been handed down from the previous dynasty. Each dynasty had its own place to store agricultural and mulberry water conservancy tools, and this is what Lord Chen was looking for. ”
An older, already forty or fifty agricultural official, explained.
"Isn't this the place where the tools and drawings and some books are kept? Why did Lord Chen have to explore the previous dynasty?"
Yang Ji was surprised in his heart. In his opinion, whether it is the previous dynasty or the current dynasty. There should be no difference.
"This ......"
The two agricultural officials glanced at each other and smiled bitterly in their hearts. They understood that the newly appointed Nongsang Sicheng was a complete layman.
"My lord, that's not the case. As long as the agricultural and mulberry officials of this dynasty actually know that the agricultural and mulberry water conservancy that was frequently in the dynasty is actually much stronger. There are many pre-dynasty commonly used, convenient and fast agricultural tools because of the war. All of them have been lost in this dynasty, or they have been partially handed down. ”
"Like the previous dynasty, there were many dragon carts, dragon canals, and buried tiger canals and hidden dragons, which can irrigate farmland in extreme ways, and even deep mountains and waterless places can be planted. But it's all gone. ”
One of the officials explained.
Yang Ji was slightly embarrassed, knowing that he was afraid that he had asked a question that was considered common-sense to agricultural officials.
"So these drawings drawn by Lord Chen are just to find those dragon cars and keels?"
Yang Ji knocked on the drawings on the table and asked.
"Not all. Every dynasty and every generation will have this kind of place similar to the ancient library of Nongsang. There are not only all kinds of irrigation water conservancy tools in it. There are other things. Master Chen seems to have said it once. He looked like he was looking for something from inside. But I didn't hear it clearly, I don't remember. ”
The first farmer official said and looked at the older official next to him.
The latter frowned, a thoughtful look.
"It's been a long time, I have to think about it...... ,By the way,It seems to be related to a special kind of different valley in the previous dynasty.。 This isovalley is extremely drought tolerant, grows rapidly, has a short ripening cycle, and has extremely high yields. It can grow in a variety of terrain environments. ”
The second agricultural official patted his head and finally remembered:
Master Chen said. The prosperity of the previous dynasty has a huge relationship with this different valley. If we can get this kind of thing, the grain production of Langya County will definitely increase several times. ”
“!!!”
Yang Ji was really surprised. He had also read a lot of history books and wild books, but he had never heard of the high-yield grains that the two mentioned.
"Two adults, are you serious?"
Yang Jidao.
If there is such a thing. That's definitely a big deal for the benefit of the people.
"There is indeed this saying circulating in private. But no one can be sure. After all, that was a long time ago. But Master Chen believes in this. I don't know where he heard that somewhere in Langya County there is a former dynasty Nongsang Ancient Library. Master Chen has traveled all over the world, and he has persevered all his life for this. ”
The two officials said.
Yang Ji was silent. It's not a trivial matter, if there really is that special kind of valley. It was indeed worth exploring for a lifetime by the former Nongsang Sicheng. But before that, Yang Ji still had a doubt.
"Two adults, the story of the previous dynasty has been a thousand years ago. For such a long time, there is really that Nongsang Guku in Langya County, and there is really that kind of different valley. I'm afraid it's all rotten and unusable, right?"
Yang Jidao.
"Hahaha......"
Hearing Yang Ji's words, the two officials of the Nongsang Division laughed:
"Your Excellency, you are worried. Grain storage is the basic function of all agricultural mulberry divisions. Unlike us, those fine grains have always been harvested and distributed by the agricultural mulberry department, and they are also responsible for storage. If there really is such a place, there is really still that kind of grain stored, let alone a thousand years. Even if it takes a little longer, it can be used. ”
"This is just Lord Chen's conjecture. Whether there is really this place or not is still unknown. Before the founding of this dynasty, there were not a few agricultural mulberry divisions destroyed in various places. Mr. Chen's thoughts may not be true. Adults don't have to take it seriously. ”
The two smiled. (To be continued......)
