At the end of March of the nineteenth year of Jiajing, Zhao Ran finally returned to Junshan, which had been absent for a year and a half.

Jin Jiu took Guan Er, Lu Jin, Lin Shuangwen, Zhong Saburo and others to welcome Zhao Ran into the temple happily. Uncle Xu happily went to Zhang Luo to eat, and Jin Jiu led everyone to tell Zhao Ran about the affairs of Junshan in the past year and a half.

Today's Junshan is different from when he left, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it with the word "Dazhi".

Thanks to the master plan before his departure, everything is now proceeding in an orderly manner according to the previous arrangement.

In the Junshan area, three major settlements have been formalized, one is the basin plain between Dajun Mountain and Xiaojun Mountain, where three large villages have been formed, and there are more than 4,000 Dingkou. The second is the relief point set up on the west side of Xiaojun Mountain, and more than 2,000 people who fled from Jiangyou County eventually stayed here. The third is a small basin seven miles northeast of Xiaojun Mountain, where two villages have also been built, and more than 1,000 people have settled.

Taken together, the three settlements have a total of more than 8,000 people, and more than 20,000 acres of cultivated land have been cultivated. In September last year, because of the smooth wind and rain throughout the year, the grain fields in the entire Junshan area produced more than 100,000 stones of rice!

Zhao Ran silently calculated that the average yield of rice per mu in a single crop is six stones, which should be quite good. He didn't know what the yield of rice per mu in the world he had crossed over should be, but he had a hunch that this yield was definitely not low.

As for why there is such a high yield, in fact, it is very simple to think about it, this world is full of spiritual energy, and the natural production is high, besides, there are five-color masters, and the water conservancy and irrigation facilities are perfect, and it is really in vain if the yield is not high.

This also shows from another aspect that if it were not for man-made disasters, there would be no problem for ordinary people to feed their families just by farming.

Because of the three-year exemption, the people have surplus grain in their hands, and the first month of this year can be regarded as a lively and lively year.

In addition, the two workshops at the foot of Junshan have also been successfully produced, and all kinds of furniture from the woodworking workshop and daily utensils from the clay workshop are directly supplied to the people of the entire Junshan area, which can be regarded as forming a virtuous self-cycle.

In addition to completing the plan before Zhao Ran left, Jin Jiu also took the initiative, taking advantage of the fallow period after the autumn harvest, organized people to build a wooden bridge across the Chongma River, and repaired a dirt road by the way, extending more than 20 miles in the direction of Guyang County, which greatly improved the communication with Guyang County.

Zhao Ran nodded again and again after hearing this, and praised Jin Jiu fiercely. He estimated that the sudden increase in merit he felt when he was in Xingqing Mansion was almost certainly related to this matter.

Looking at Jin Jiu, who was talking eloquently, Zhao Ran was quite relieved, this idle gentleman was really different now, and many things can already be taken care of, let him do it. With such a person under his hands, he can be regarded as a down-to-earth and comfortable temple.

When Jin Jiu introduced, he didn't forget to praise Lin Shuangwen, Guan Er, Lu Jin, Zhong Saburo and others. Behind Junshan Dazhi, of course, it is inseparable from the hard work of these people, among which Lin Shuangwen can be said to have made great contributions.

Lin Shuangwen is from Xizhenwu Palace, originally a fireworker layman, and after ten years in Xizhenwu Palace, he had no chance to be punished, so he could only return to his hometown. And because his brother and sister-in-law controlled the family business, he couldn't bear the short struggle between his parents, so he simply came to vote for Zhao Ran.

In the past two or three years in Junshan Temple, Lin Shuangwen has helped Jin Jiu a lot because of his professional skills, not only responsible for mediating disputes and persuading farmers to do the work of people's livelihood, but also helping to manipulate the Zhaijiao ritual when Jin Jiu is busy.

And Guan Er and Lu Jin's affairs are to catch rapes and thieves, and prevent thieves and criminals. Junshan is located in the three areas, sandwiched between Long'an, Baoning and Dufu, the north is Guyang of this county, the west is Jiangyou, the southeast is Baoning Fu Zitong, and the south is Chengdu Weicheng.

Such a special location was originally supposed to be a hiding place for bandits from all walks of life, but since the establishment of the temple in Junshan, the bandits have been extinct, the thieves are hidden, and the small Junshan area is actually peaceful and peaceful. Of course, there is a reason why Zhao Ran cracked down on bandits at that time, but it also has a major relationship with Guan Er and Lu Jin's unremitting efforts in the past year or so.

While praising these backbones of Junshan Temple, Jin Jiu naturally did not forget to mention two people, one is the local old Zhong family's San Lang, and the other is Song Xiong, the stele opener who was captured back then.

Because of his familiarity, Zhong Jia Saburo mainly assists Junshan Temple in handling civil exchanges, coordination and organization and mobilization, and Song Xiong, the founder of the monument, took over the top spot of the Cointreau Mountain Bandit Village because of his good skills.

After listening to Jin Jiu and others talk about the affairs of Junshan Temple for a long time, Zhao Ran, accompanied by everyone, began to inspect the territory, and looked at Jin Jiu's report one by one.

The first place to visit is the two workshops at the foot of Cointreau – the pottery workshop and the wood workshop. These two workshops are close to each other, and the distance between them is only more than ten zhang, which is easy to manage.

The foreman of the pottery workshop, surnamed Li, is a craftsman in Weicheng in the south, and was recruited by Junshan Temple to build a workshop here two years ago. Originally, it was agreed that Foreman Li would only work for one year, and after the workshop was built, he would bring a few more apprentices, and he would be able to go home with a heavy reward of thirty taels of silver after finishing the work.

But after working for a year, Foreman Li was gradually attracted by the prosperity of Junshan, and simply took his family from Weicheng half a year ago and settled here. For this reason, Jin Jiu also used his father's relationship to dredge up with Wei Cheng's officials, and only then did he complete the formalities of this craftsman.

The foreman of the timber workshop is surnamed Wang, who is from Guyang County, he did not bring his family to Junshan, but he himself lives in Junshan, because of his rich income, he has accumulated a lot of family funds in the past two years, and simply accepted a concubine room in the new village in the northeast settlement of Xiaojun Mountain, which is regarded as a branch here.

The craftsmanship of the two foremen is speechless, and the few apprentices they brought with them have gradually grown up, but the workers in the workshop are much less than Zhao Ran expected, and there are only about 20 people on both sides combined.

Jin Jiu explained: "In today's Junshan, every household has a field, and last year was a big harvest year, and the harvest was extremely thick, so they are reluctant to come to the workshop to do regular labor, and only come to work in the slack time." Now it is the time of spring ploughing, and the temporary workers are all going home and busy with the farm work in the field, so there are only a few people now. ”

Zhao Ran nodded, thinking in his heart, this is a problem. In order for the workshop to develop and grow, there must be a large number of workers, and if you want a large number of workers to work in the workshop, you have to "squeeze" people out of the field. In Zhao Ran's memory, every time he "squeezed someone" from the ground, it was a history of bloody and tearful suffering, if he really wanted to do this, then what was the purpose of his hard work to reform the green seedlings back then?

Could it be that in this world, the road of big industry is not going to work? Zhao Ran couldn't help but have a headache. ()
