394: Ten Black Disasters (4) [Seeking Double Monthly Pass]
"The people recommended by the text must be the best among people." Shen Tang looked extremely interested, and his eyebrows were suddenly stained with a slight sadness, and he sighed, "It's just that such talents still have a bright future. Follow I'm going to Long Dance..."
Shen Tang was about to speak but stopped.
The essence of tea art is squeezed to death.
Xu Jie hurriedly said: "It would be a blessing for my naughty cousin to follow Mr. Shen. His parents died when he was young, and Jie raised him as his son-in-law. However, he has a naughty personality and refuses to be disciplined. He is also worried that he will give Shen Jun You are causing trouble..."
Shen Tang asked: "Wen Zhu's cousin?"
"Yes, this year is sixteen."
Shen Tang frowned and said, "He is too young... In Longwu, this child may not be able to endure such hardship."
Xu Jie: "..."
Inexplicably, I felt that these words came out of Shen Jun's mouth and were very happy. The sixteen-year-old cousin was the "child" in Shen Jun's mouth. So, wouldn't Shen Jun, who is fourteen years old, not a toddler?
He smiled and said: "Don't worry, Mr. Shen. If he can't even bear this little hardship, he shouldn't keep shouting about 'Feng Lang lives in Xu' and 'Drinking from Ma Hanhai' all day long. It's all in vain."
For this reason, if this person doesn't accept it, it will be a quarrel. Shen Tang agreed, and on the surface he and Xu Jie were having fun - Xu Jie drank and she drank tea - but inwardly, she slightly curled her lips and put everything together. Hidden without leaving a trace.
Although Xu Jie did not break up with Wu Xianming on the face of it...
However, when a promising young man from the same clan as Xu Jie comes into his possession, what signal is there? Isn’t it clear at a glance?
The key is that this will not alert anyone - Wu Xian will not mind, Qin Li will not question, and even Xu Jie, the "prey" in the situation, does not feel that he has been calculated, and only thinks that this move is a reward. Shen Tang’s trust.
So - how can a sincere person like her, who is as clear as crystal, have any evil intentions?
You can eat indiscriminately, but you can't talk indiscriminately.
In the next few days, Shen Tang basically took Xu Jie to familiarize himself with everything, ensuring that he could take office seamlessly. The more Xu Jie got to know, the more frightened he became, and at the same time, he accumulated more doubts. Seeing him, Shen Tang hesitated to speak: "Wen Annotation But where is the doubt?"
Xu Jie said: "Shen Jun is not taking anyone away?"
Shen Tang pretended to be confused: "I'll take people away, Wen Zhu, I can't just take office alone..."
Xu Jie: "The people of Heyin won't be taken away?"
Although in troubled times, human life is like grass and grass.
But manpower is a precious resource.
The common people who settled in Heyin and recuperated for a year or two are no longer as skinny as they were when they were refugees. Especially the labor of young and middle-aged people is what Longwu County urgently needs. Shen Tang can take advantage of this opportunity to spread the news The rumors shake people's hearts and scare the common people to pack their bags and follow Shen Tang. Wherever Shen Tang goes, they will take root and operate...
Xu Jie frowned and gave Shen Tang some advice.
Spreading rumors and causing panic is an extremely common method of operation. Everyone despises the refugee bandits, but they will not despise the labor force that can immediately create labor value. Shen Tang still has a very high reputation among them...
Even if it doesn't reach the level where tens of thousands of people will follow him if he raises his arms, as long as Shen Jun is willing, many people will follow him.
With them, Longwu County will be easy to run.
But Shen Tang is different.
Since the messenger brought the peace news, she ordered the officials at the upper and lower levels to appease the common people, so that they could prepare for the autumn harvest in peace and contentment and manage their small lives well.
Shen Tang stayed for a long time after listening.
Muttered: "Can it still be like this?"
Xu Jie: "...a few of your staff didn't remind you?"
Shen Tang said with a smile: "They know my temperament, but even if they can do this, they can't do this. How much effort did we spend to get them out of their status as bandits and refugees and farm with peace of mind? We took them away for their own selfish desires and embarked on a road of uncertainty. , with an unknown future, isn’t it putting the cart before the horse? I came from poverty back then and was able to manage Heyin to what it is now, so I naturally have the confidence to make Long Wu the second Heyin..."
Shen Tang really doesn’t know this method?
Will Lyb not remind you if you pray for good deeds?
She knew that Qi Shan and others had also reminded her.
But the conclusion is that it is not necessary.
Not to mention that this journey will consume food and grass. Even if there is enough food and grass, the biggest role of the common people in Longwu County is to help open up wasteland. Can their efficiency be higher than that of brave warriors? Therefore, after thinking about it, it was shelved.
Xu Jie heard this and said: "Shen Jun, you are benevolent and righteous."
Acknowledge the other person from the bottom of your heart.
Good people, really good people!
Even if Xu Jie wanted to find a trace of hypocrisy in the other party, it would be difficult for him. The other party behaved magnanimously, and his words and deeds were sincere, just like a clear spring that could be seen to the bottom at a glance. He was the most pure and kind person Xu Jie had ever seen in his life, but he also had a certain of edge.
Shen Tang blushed slightly at his praise.
Hehe, I'm so embarrassed.
Shen Tang had no intention of taking away ordinary people, so someone was upset. When the other party heard the news, he rushed to the government office without waiting to take a breath and drink tea. After taking a closer look, he saw that it was Dr. Dong from the medical clinic. The old man's eyes were full of anger.
Shen Tang was worried that the other party would be angry.
He quickly asked someone to make tea for him.
"Take a sip and calm down."
This is the scented tea she made herself.
The coolness dispels the fire, and the fragrance of flowers overflows.
Dr. Dong had a livid face and asked, "Shen Jun is going to leave us in Heyin and ignore us, right?"
Shen Tang was grilled and questioned.
He looked confused and said: "What do you mean by this? That's Longwu County. Why are you going there at your age?"
There were too many people that Shen Tang didn't plan to bring.
She even kept most of her carefully trained cooks, and only a few prostitutes followed alone.
Dr. Dong said: "As an old man, why should you be afraid of death?"
Shen Tang: "..."
She didn't say that Dr. Dong was afraid of death.
It's just that he is old. He can stay in Heyin and run the medical clinic with peace of mind, and Xu Jie is taking care of him. He has time to see the patients, but has no time to take care of his apprentices. How about taking good care of himself in his old age?
Where is the chaos?
Dr. Dong took out a dagger from his sleeve.
With a snap, it was slapped in front of Shen Tang's desk.
The latter shrank his shoulders in shock, looking pitiful and innocent. However, Dr. Dong refused to accept this trick and kept speaking harshly, saying loudly: "If Mr. Shen refuses to take the old man with him, then he must think that the old man is here." He is old, his eyesight is dim, and his medical skills are shallow. He is a useless idler... He is old and has no face to see others, so he can only commit suicide to lose his reputation. Mr. Shen, you can do whatever you want!"
Dr. Dong is very upright.
Shen Tang was given two choices.
Take him away, or let him go!
Shen Tang: "...This, you can't do this..."
Put the dagger away and stay away from the angry old man.
As you get older, your anger will be stronger than that of young people.
Shen Tang gave the other party another cup of Bai Spark Tea.
I'm afraid that the other person's blood pressure will soar too high and cause cerebral hemorrhage on the spot.
"...Dr. Dong is willing to go with me, so why should I not? It's just that you are old after all, and the journey is long. You have to find a few considerate and careful students to take care of you to avoid mistakes on the way... This is the delay. ..." Shen Tang passed the responsibility completely. It's not that she refused to take people away, but that this matter has not been put on the agenda yet.
It will be his turn in a few days.
Dr. Dong's complexion improved after hearing this lie.
When Shen Tang saw this, he knew that he had fooled him.
Secretly he breathed a sigh of relief.
It's really unbearable to be so passionate at such a young age.
As soon as Dr. Dong left, someone else knocked on his door.
Shen Tang looked at Captain Yang, who was very energetic and energetic, and was surprised: "Isn't Mr. Yang also here to 'fight with his life'?"
"What is 'fighting with one's life'?"
Shen Tang briefly talked about Dr. Dong.
Captain Yang laughed and said, "Even if we miss, we're not far off."
Shen Tang: "..."
Why don’t any of them want to stay and retire?
Captain Yang saw her doubts and said quietly: "If you can't die on the battlefield, then die closer to it."
Live, but don’t want to live a mediocre life.
In the past two years, he has been recuperating while looking for things to do as much as possible, whether it is helping Gong Shuwu and the others train soldiers, training new recruits Danzi, or helping Fu Gu Department Store as the shopkeeper out of boredom... His body is a waste, but his heart cannot .
Shen Tang was shocked.
I vaguely regretted my rescue at that time.
Captain Yang comforted him and said, "Shen Jun, don't blame yourself..."
Although he still felt itching with hatred when he thought about it now, Shen Tang was really kind to him. Furthermore, everyone had their own positions at that time, and it was impossible to say who was right and who was wrong. No matter what, he lived two more years because of Shen Tang. Year……
This is kindness!
Captain Yang came to the door in person, and Shen Tang could only take him with him.
One thing after another was arranged in an orderly manner.
Time passes peacefully, and it’s autumn harvest in a blink of an eye.
Just as Shen Tang expected, this year will be a good year.
But the common people were not overjoyed.
Some people even feel sad while harvesting - Heyin has changed its owner, and it will never be like this again.
"...the solid grains are large and firm, three times older than the age..."
On the field ridge, Shen Tang and Xu Jie walked side by side.
The latter cast a suspicious look at her.
Shen Tang: "This is the Lord's Prayer for this year's spring plowing. I guess the commentaries also know something about my way of being a scribe?"
Xu Jie nodded.
He inquired secretly.
However, the staff under Shen Tang's tent were very strict.
Just when he thought there would be no progress, this year's spring plowing yielded results - Shen Tang once explained to Jiang Sheng the way of being a scribe in public, and how he could nourish a small area by using his words and spirits to increase the possibility of a good harvest.
To be honest, Xu Jie was very excited at first.
Doing business is very profitable, but it is far less stable than farming. Farmland is the most stable source of income, and controlling food is equivalent to holding the lifeblood of the world - of course, the premise is that you have the ability to hold on to food and not be killed by the enemy.
Otherwise, no matter how much food you have, it will just be used as wedding clothes for others.
For example, Xu made friends with Wu Xian in order to gain support.
However, when Xu Jie deeply understood this scribe's way, he found that it was not that tempting in fact - just a place in Heyin required Shen Tang, Chu Yao, Qishan, Gu Chi, Kang Shi, Jiang Shengji The literary spirit of a literary scholar.
Among them is the Dacheng Palace of Humanities.
Xu Jie: "...I know a little bit about it."
_(:з)∠?)_
This lineup is really hard to imitate.
There is no similar way of writing among them.
He looked at the corn harvested by the common people and said with a smile: "Mr. Shen, look. 'The grains are large and strong' is true, but the 'three times more than the previous year' is an exaggeration."
Three times no.
But there is still a little more than double.
Because the upper limit of corn yield per acre is limited, even if there is a blessing from the spirit to increase fertility, no amount can be increased. However, Shen Tang almost made a "desperate move" and set aside 30% of the field for wheat cultivation, which indeed ushered in an unprecedented bumper year.
The wheat yield per acre is already much higher than that of corn. It uses high-quality wheat seeds carefully purchased by Xu Jie. In addition, with the canal irrigation put into use for spring plowing this year, the yield has naturally reached a higher level. Unfortunately, wheat is not easy to shell. It doesn't taste good, easily scratches your throat, and doesn't taste like corn. But - it's not easy to eat enough in this world.
Taste?
That's something only rich people who don't have to worry about food and clothing pay attention to.
There was a bumper wheat harvest, and the tenant farmers who received the order to plant wheat cried with joy. One of the families had a large population and was assigned a large amount of land. According to the amount reported by the clerk, the land tax was deducted on the spot, and the remaining grain was enough for their family for two years. !
That’s two years!
Two full years!
If you replace fresh wheat with old grain, you can last longer and you will no longer be afraid of starving to death during this period.
Thinking of this, the family held their heads together and cried.
Similar situations are happening everywhere.
Just listening to their cries made me feel sad, and Shen Tang said with some relief: "Well, people's life has been difficult since ancient times... But at least now, they can live like human beings. After I leave, Wen Note, they I’ll leave it to you.”
The venue was casual, but her tone was solemn.
If there is anything that He Yin can't let go of, it's the people who have suffered so much. It's not that Shen Tang can't defy the will and stay. After all, Zheng Qiao can only use the word "haha" to control the local political power. describe.
But she knew better in her heart what was more important.
She can develop obscenely in Ha Yoon.
But before that, Longwu County has been broken through by Shiwu, and all the grievances they have accumulated for hundreds of years will be vented on innocent people. Under the iron cavalry, there are all innocent souls. Even if they are lucky enough to turn the tide in the end, how can the dead people come back?
Ji Shou said——
【The person who should suffer the consequences is Zheng Qiao!】
We can't expect Zheng Qiao's conscience to find out.
Yan Xingning said——
【Master Ming, you should love the world.】
She loves He Yin and pities Long Wu.
Therefore, danger must be kept outside the border. Even if there are many difficulties, we should go upstream!
Xu Jie nodded solemnly: "Wei."
It seemed that what he took over from Shen Tang was not the title of Heyin County Sheriff, but the future of tens of millions of people.
Because of the special season, this year’s autumn harvest is very early.
All parties came to help, and the seven days came to an end. The remaining warehousing work was Xu Jie's business. Shen Tang brought enough food, grass, soldiers and horses, and was ready to go. The cousin recommended by Xu Jie also arrived on the last day. An angry Xu Jie dragged him over and took him to meet his future new master.
Along the way, I never forgot my numerous reminders and instructions.
It makes people's ears go numb.
The cousin picked out his ears with his little finger and complained: "Brother, you are not so careful with Mr. Wu..."
Is it too much to make a fuss about?
Xu Jie gave him a sharp look. His cousin was so shocked that he straightened his spine and did not dare to be lazy.
When Xu Jie saw this, he was slightly satisfied and scolded: "What did Hun say? Shen Jun is a very good person - well, aren't you afraid that you will offend others by being Hun? If you become the lord, and you do Hun, what will happen to the clan?" I'll take care of you, but if you mess with Mr. Shen, huh!"
