After spring, the vegetation is more and more luxuriant, and on the field, as far as the eye can see, there is a large area of verdant green, and the growth momentum of crops is quite good.

In two or three months, the harvest will be in full swing.

This crop is of great strategic importance, and as long as it goes well, the situation in Yongzhou will be completely stabilized.

In a large field to the east, Old Man Sun is leading his family to weed diligently.

This field is two acres of land, all planted with rice, one by one, growing vigorously and with gratifying momentum; there are canals and ponds at the edge of the fields, and when it rains, they are already full of water, so there is no need to worry about drought; as long as they do not suffer from large-scale insect infestations, this season's harvest will not be bad.

Old man Sun couldn't help but secretly calculate in his heart, and the final result was that after removing some taxes and other consumption, there would be almost more than 3,000 catties of grain left in the end - of course, this is the figure obtained by adding up all the fields in the family.

The numbers are staggering and unimaginable.

In the past, during the Taiping years, the monthly ration of Old Man Sun's family was less than 50 catties, which was simply a few meters in the pot. There is no way, he is a poor peasant, only a few slopes, due to geological problems, he can't grow rice, he can only grow some potatoes, and the yield is not high.

Normally, they rent land to do it, and they are veritable tenants. Tenants are heavily exploited, layer by layer, it is difficult to rent good land, and they have to pay all kinds of taxes, and in the end, what is left can barely satisfy the whole family.

In comparison, what I used to live was not a life at all.

You know, now his family has more than ten acres of land. Put it in the township, that is a squire landlord.

It feels so good to grow your own land!

All of this has to be thanked to that Lord Chen! The family has given Chen Sanlang the immortal card, and I only hope that he can rule for a long time and never change......

The rice harvest in Yongzhou can have two seasons a year, and after harvesting this stubble, there will be another stubble in late autumn.

It's a real thing!

The common people are the most simple and the most realistic.

After moving a large handful of grass out of the field, Old Man Sun sat on the road at the edge of the field, ready to smoke and rest.

Gotta get it!

The sound of horses' hooves came from the front of the road, slow and heavy.

The field that Old Man Sun received was on the side of the fork in the official road, and in normal times, there were soldiers and horses running through the official road, but it was not common.

Now it is very peaceful, the governance is clear, and there is almost no trouble. I don't dare, I don't have time, I'm busy planting and growing food.

Today, why did some horses come here?

Old man Sun was surprised, and hurriedly stood up and went up to take a look.

After walking for a short time, a horse came out of the corner and walked slowly. There was a man on the horse's back, but the man was lying on the horse's back, and he didn't know what was going on.

Although Old Man Sun was old, his eyes were fine, and he soon found that the man was bleeding, and the red blood kept dripping on the ground, which was shocking.

"Oops!"

Old man Sun was startled, tore his throat and shouted, asking his family to hurry back to the village and tell the village chief to know.

Soon a militia came, led by Sun Dagang, the militia captain in the village.

The establishment of the militia system first started from the townships outside the prefectures and counties, and gradually spread to the following prefectures and counties.

For this, the young and strong people have no objection, anyway, joining the militia is just more daily training, and there are welfare subsidies, and someone in the family is a militia, and they can divide more fields.

In just one or two months, militia units have basically been established in many towns and villages outside the prefecture and county. However, due to the sharp decline in population and the lack of success, the number of militia in some villages and towns is not large, and there are about a dozen people, which is already too much.

Sun Dagang arrived with two militiamen, plucked up his courage, and picked up the people on horseback to watch. Seeing that it was a middle-aged man, I don't know if it was because of excessive blood loss, and his face was very pale. He was dressed in a green shirt and carried a knife, and he looked like he should be a Jianghu person.

The wound was on his left arm, and he had a hideous wound that was bleeding profusely.

Old man Sun asked, "Da Gang, what do you think should be done?"

Sun Dagang is a man with a big waist and a round waist, with a straight temperament, scratching his head: "Take it back to the village chief." ”

"I think it's better to send it directly to the state and county yamen. ”

Old man Sun is timid, he is afraid that the other party is a big thief or something, if he takes him back to the village, he is afraid that he will cause trouble.

Sun Dagang thought for a while: "That's good." ”

"Without further ado, let's go. ”

Old man Sun is afraid of his life, and he can't get out of the relationship.

"Uncle Sun, you have to go together and be a witness. ”

Old man Sun nodded and followed them.

Several people rushed to the state and county, and on the way, Sun Dagang helped the man bandage it, using herbal medicines, barely stopping the bleeding, otherwise how could he bear such a flow.

When he arrived at the east gate of the state and county, when he entered the gate, he immediately attracted the attention of the guards and asked, "Who are you?"

Sun Dagang hurriedly identified himself, he was the captain of the militia and had a waist card on his body. This waist card is a rule formulated by Mo Xuanyi, and it is announced by the state government, and everyone knows it.

The identity was correct, and after hearing the reason, the soldiers defending the city went to check on the wounded.

This person is of unknown origin, and he is riding a horse, so he is naturally suspicious.

At present, the territory of Yongzhou is basically stable, but there are still some unstable factors, and there are even remnants of the Shura Demon Sect. Although it is not a climate, it is always uneasy. When there is something suspicious, you should check it out.

But the man was already in a state of syncope, unable to speak, unable to ask anything.

The soldier on duty frowned and shouted, "Go and tell General Liang and let him decide." ”

There is a general at the four gates of the state and county, who is responsible for guarding, and the general at the east gate is Liang Zhufa. The "old man" who joined the army when he was in Laoshan has been fighting for a long time and has made a lot of contributions.

After a short time, Liang Zhufa went down to the city gate. In fact, he only needs to say how to deal with such a thing, and he doesn't need to come down in person. But I had nothing to do, so I wanted to come and see it.

When they got closer, they got out of the way.

Liang Zhufa went to see the injured, only glanced at it, his face changed greatly, and he lost his voice: "It's Lord Xu!"

An arrow stepped forward.

Everyone didn't know why, and their faces were stunned: "Lord Xu, is it an official of the state government?"

Liang Zhufa didn't care much, stretched out his hand to pick up the man, and shouted: "Quick, get a carriage quickly." ”

Seeing the general's eagerness, his subordinates did not dare to slack off, and immediately drove a carriage over.

Liang Zhufa got into the car with the person in his arms and told the coachman to rush to the state government immediately.

The carriage rushed away, and the pedestrians on the street hurriedly avoided it, and they were very surprised, not knowing what had happened.

"You all have to go to the state government and wait for inquiries!"

The general's unusual behavior made the guards nervous, the person was sent by Sun Dagang and them, and they couldn't leave until the matter was clarified.
