Chapter 162 Going to the village to seek development

Yue Fei lived in Sizhou City for a total of seven days, and he finally left, with a yearning for Sizhou City and a reverence for Liu Aiji.

Liu Yi had already seen that he would never mention the steel knife again, and he knew that his goal had been achieved, even if he turned against Liu He one day, it would be impossible for Yue Fei to attack Sizhou City, because no one wanted to destroy this beautiful life.

Sending Yue Fei away, Liu Yi finally breathed a long sigh of relief, judging from the current situation, since Liu He has invested in Lingxiao Pavilion, he should not have a big idea in the short term.

In the vicinity of Sizhou City, the largest force of soldiers and horses in the court is Yue Fei, after this battle, if there is no order from the superiors, Yue Fei will not take the initiative to provoke trouble, which is a rare period of peace for Sizhou City.

The ancients said that forgetting the war will be dangerous, so for Liu Aiji, he can't sit back and relax, he wants to take advantage of this time, increase the integration efforts, he wants to include the surrounding countryside of Sizhou City into the overall planning of Sizhou City.

Although Liu Aiji's plan costs a lot of money, Zhang Danfeng and Dongfang Undefeated are both in favor, and money is really not a problem for them. Especially Dongfang is undefeated and Liu Ill has been with Liu Ill for a long time, in her heart, Liu Ill is already her rivers and lakes, so no matter what Liu Ill does, no matter whether she understands it or not, she supports it!

Since Liu Ying has returned from Kaifeng, the smell of war has not been so strong, Guo Xiang and Xiao Zhao have also returned to Houye's Mansion from the military camp, about Yang Paifeng's daily life, Liu Ying has found several women from the rivers and lakes to take care of.

The weather was not bad on this day, and Liu Ying already wanted to go to the countryside. By the way, to understand some of the situation, so as to formulate the overall development plan, since coming to Sizhou City, first busy with the rivers and lakes, and then in the rectification of the city, I really didn't pay much attention to the countryside, a person's energy is limited, the main and secondary grasp is clear.

Conquering the world can encircle the city in the countryside, but when it comes to development, the city is superior to the countryside, and this is the law. Liu is already a modern person. Of course, he knows this law, and naturally he can't destroy this law.

When Liu Yi was already walking the rivers and lakes, he often passed through the countryside, but he did not go deep into the countryside. I really don't know much about them.

This time it's out. The undefeated East originally wanted to follow. Later, when I saw Guo Xiang walking with Xiao Zhao, I forgot it, and used the excuse of looking for Yang Paifeng to drink. Just stay in Sizhou City.

Country roads are difficult to walk, especially the country roads in ancient times, which are full of potholes, and people who have not walked on them will shake three times with every step, and Guo Xiang is in this state today.

Liu Zhi and Xiao Zhao are quite good, especially when Xiao Zhao was fostered in a farmhouse when she was a child, these roads are really not difficult for her, and she is very happy to bounce along the way.

The first village they went to was called Liujiaku, as the name suggests, most of the people in it are surnamed Liu, with a typical family system, the patriarch is seventy or eighty, and everyone calls him Master Liu.

When Liu Yi came to this village, the whole village was boiling, you must know that the people of this village have never seen any big people since they were sensible, and the Wang family shop in the next village was regarded as the biggest thing in their village because the magistrate had been to it once, and they had to walk straighter than the waist of people in other villages.

And today, there is a waiting master in the village, this is a big event, an absolute big event, in order to receive this waiting master, Master Liu personally ordered that the women and children of the whole clan avoid it, just for fear that they would stand and bump into the waiting master.

Those people who came to see the Lord were all people who shook their heads when they spoke, according to the past speaking, these people were all readers, their concept of reading people was very low, as long as they could know the number from one to one hundred, they could be regarded as scholars, and if they could add it when they spoke, they would be regarded as old pedants.

People like Liu Ai who don't know how to read, but who can also read, don't know how to define it, because they haven't met it in their village so far.

Liu Ill had already come to this village, originally to find out about the situation, but you said that the old patriarch had driven these people home and would not let them out, so what was the matter? Therefore, Liu Ill's first request after meeting them was to release all those people.

The old patriarch saw that Liu Ai had spoken kindly, and before letting those people out, he did not forget to hold Liu Ai to the sky.

Liu Yi didn't care about these things, he was always smiling, they were really a little thirsty after walking for a long time, and when he saw that the old patriarch's house was boiling water, he took out a worn-out teacup from the coffee table and prepared to pour some water to drink.

His action made the old patriarch tremble with excitement, who was the waiting master in his mind? He was holding a golden bowl and silver chopsticks, but he didn't expect to come to their village, or in his house, and actually used this inconspicuous teacup and drank this light and tasteless boiled water.

In his heart, he secretly thought to himself, after waiting for the master to leave, he must keep this teacup well and pass it on from generation to generation, after all, this is something that the master has used, and it is rich and noble.

Of course, the old patriarch may not have imagined that if his teacup could really be passed down from generation to generation, it would be sold for hundreds of thousands of dollars by now when it was approved by the auction house, antiques, real antiques.

Just when Liu Yi had finished drinking tea, there was a sudden commotion outside, and those who were released were all crowded in front of the not too narrow door of the old patriarch's house, just to see this real big man, because in their thoughts, as long as they could look at it, they could get a little extravagance.

Just when everyone was pushing and making noise, a bare-ass little kid ran in and ran to Liu Aiji's front and smirked at him. It's really insulting to Sven and insulting Sven if you don't wear pants in front of Hou Ye?

The old patriarch thought so, and immediately didn't want to think about it, so he took his dry tobacco stick and knocked the child's buttocks, knowing that he had just smoked dry tobacco, and the cigarette stick was still hot.

It was still Liu Ai's eyes and hands that were fast, and he hugged the bare-ass little fart in the cup, and the little fart didn't know how dangerous it was just now, sitting in Liu Aiji's arms and constantly using his dirty little hands to pull Liu Aiji's neat hair.

Liu Yi had already looked at the bare-bottomed child, and then at the crowd gathered outside, and then he understood why the old patriarch drove them all home.

Just because these women are very tattered clothes, there are holes all over their bodies, patches on scars, and holes in scars, you can see the white flesh, and those children are even more miserable, both men and women are basically bare-assed.

This scene made Liu Yi very sad and very self-blaming, this village is only less than ten miles away from Sizhou City, and he has not paid attention to it for two years since he came to Sizhou City.

Sizhou City is located in the southeast, can be called the land of fishing rice, I didn't expect to be in such a place, there are such poor people, a question to know, although this place is called the land of fishing and rice, planting is also rice, but the output of grain is really embarrassed to say, and have to rely on the sky to eat.

Liu Ai has asked the villagers about the various situations in detail, and the villagers are also very friendly to his impression, and they really have to answer questions, even if Liu Ai has not asked them.

After asking about these situations, Liu Yi also sighed secretly in his heart, he is not a rice expert, otherwise he can really solve their poverty by getting a hybrid rice or something. I am not an expert in pesticides, otherwise I can increase the yield and liberate the labor force by getting some pesticides to kill insects or something. Although I know the composition and formula of some chemical fertilizers, it is impossible to produce chemical fertilizers under the current conditions.

The time is gradually approaching noon, Liu Yi has not returned to Sizhou City, but stayed in the old patriarch to eat, the life of the old patriarch's family seems to be the best in the village, and the meal is made of nine dishes and one soup.

But when eating, only the old patriarch and Liu Yi had already moved a few of them, and the others consciously picked up a little green vegetables and stood next to them to eat, while the seven or eight-year-old grandson of the old clan kept swallowing saliva when he looked at the only fat pork on the plate.

In this case, Liu Ill and Guo Xiang Xiaozhao were embarrassed to eat, and Liu Ill had also beckoned others to eat, since Hou Ye spoke, then naturally you are welcome, it took less than half a second, and all the dishes on the table were looted.

This scene made Liu Yi feel sad, if it wasn't for the presence of everyone, his tears would definitely flow out, after the old patriarch had eaten, they walked out of the courtyard and came to the field outside.

After careful inspection, Liu Ai has decided to build a few ponds on high ground, so that the farmland below can end the days of relying on the sky for food, as for the land and labor money for building the pond, naturally he Liu Ai has already paid for it, and he will not let the people pay a penny, and those who have the labor to work can also get wages from it.

These are just the first steps for him to do, it is impossible to make a fortune by farming alone since ancient times, unless your family has a large amount of land, but in that case, more people will lose their land, more people will be displaced, so Tuntian This kind of thing, Liu Zhi will not do it.

In the process of inspection, Liu Yi found that the leaves in this area grew very well, so he asked the old patriarch why he didn't use these leaves to raise silkworms, so that he could have an extra income.

When it comes to raising silkworms, the old patriarch is a stomach of bitter water, silkworms they have not raised, but they just can't sell them, even if they can sell them, the price is very low, and the cheap things hurt the farmers.

Since they have raised silkworms and have experience in raising silkworms, it is easy to do, Liu Yi has immediately handed over to the old patriarch, and asked him to unite several nearby villages to set up a silkworm breeding base in this area, and all the silkworm cocoons will be purchased by him in Sizhou City, and then unified weaving, and the price is absolutely fair.

From silkworm raising to textile to dyeing and making cloth, this is an industrial chain, and how much employment can be driven by an industrial chain, this does not need to be calculated. (To be continued......)
