I thought I would be able to relax for a few days after the car overturned, but I didn't expect that this was just the beginning.
In the past two days, Yuan Dake and Zhang Bao came here with a group of people when they had nothing to do. They checked the growth of the rice fields and observed the operation of the overturning trucks. In short, they were busy and had a lot of fun! And when it was time for dinner, they came to hang out.
The last meal had become a routine.
No, it's noon again, and Yuan Dake doesn't know which county magistrate he brought to inspect the work...
The weather has entered summer, and the sun is shining brightly! The sky and earth are as hot as a steamer, and the thin layer of tiles on the wooden roof has long been exposed to the sun.
Once you enter the house, it's like entering a sauna! Even if the craftsmen lined the tiles with a thick layer of straw a few days ago, it's useless. It's still hot when it should be hot.
He wouldn't wait in the house to find any punishment. Before the weather got too hot, Xiao Han had already arrived under the crooked neck willow tree. He lay down comfortably on the recliner and drank sip after sip.
Drinking tea.
"Xiao Hou? Xiao Hou?" Someone ran over from behind the tree. When he saw Xiao Han under the tree, he quickly ducked into the shade of the tree.
"Xiao Hou, you are so leisurely and at ease..." The person running over was Lao Feng. Since Xiao Han wrote his name on the memorial last time, he has been running in even more diligently! Fortunately, Xiao Han has never
All people and animals are male, otherwise they will be misunderstood. Old Feng wants the old trees to bloom, so he comes to show his courtesy every day...
"Oh, Lao Feng, come on, come on, have a sip of tea!" Seeing that it was Lao Feng, Xiao Han didn't even bother to get up. He raised his hand weakly, even as he said hello. This damn weather is not even cold.
There is no wind, who wants to move around?
Old Feng must have been too hot, so he sat down on the ground, wiping the sweat from his forehead, picking up the teacup on the table and pouring it into his mouth.
After drinking three cups of tea in a row and draining the last drop of water in the teapot, Old Feng let out a comfortable breath, took off the straw hat on his head and fanned himself vigorously.
"Master Hou, why are your clothes so... strange?" After a few blows, Old Feng suddenly felt that Xiao Han was a little different today. When he took a closer look, what was he wearing? Why didn't he even have a button?
?
Xiao Han seemed to have explained this outfit more than once. After grabbing the collar to get some air, he said to Lao Feng: "Hey, don't mention it! Those clothes are just too cumbersome. They almost didn't cover me up in this hot day."
Damn it! I made this outfit specially. Don’t tell me, it’s really cool. Do you want it? If so, I’ll give you one too.”
"This...it's not necessary..." Lao Feng looked at Xiao Han in short-sleeved pants with envy. After hesitating for a long time, he still shook his head and refused. No one dared to say anything about Xiao Han's clothes. If he wore them, he would probably be disgraced by those old people.
Spray into a sieve.
Seeing that Lao Feng was unwilling to wear such trendy clothes, Xiao Han did not force himself and yawned: "No? Don't say I didn't give you a favor! By the way, why are you here? You haven't been in the county these two days.
Is there a place ready? Is there any problem?"
Hearing Xiao Han ask about business, Lao Feng immediately straightened up and said to Xiao Han: "No problem, what's the problem? People in the county heard that they could also grow this kind of food, and they were so happy that they almost went crazy!
We work nonstop during the day and night. The wasteland near the river beach has been sorted out, and the ridges have been set up. After a few more plows, we can divert water to grow food!"
Xiao Han listened with his eyes closed, nodded, and said to Lao Feng: "Actually, there is no need to be in such a hurry. Ren Qing said that the food here can only be harvested in nearly ten days, and with the seedlings raised, there is still plenty of time!
Also, you didn’t forget to tell them that these grains are grown to be used as seeds and cannot be taken home to eat!”
Old Feng chuckled and said: "This is natural! Everyone knows why parents starve to death and don't eat the grain they grow! They don't ask for this season's harvest, they just want to be able to grow this kind of high-yielding grain in the future.
!”
After hearing this, Xiao Han shook his head and said to Lao Feng: "This won't work. The farmers' families are not rich to begin with, and we can't let them suffer! Just tell them that when this batch of grain is ready, the court will follow the rules of high-quality grain
Purchase at a reasonable price! If you plant well, there will be rewards. Other counties are the same and they all act accordingly!"
"Master Hou is so righteous!" After hearing Xiao Han's arrangement, Lao Feng immediately gave Xiao Han a thumbs up in admiration. He did not expect that Xiao Han would consider it so carefully and thoughtfully. In this way, his last worry was gone.
Gone.
Listening to Lao Feng praising himself, Xiao Han laughed and said to him: "Okay, don't flatter me, I can't promote you and make you rich!"
Old Feng also laughed loudly and said: "I really don't expect to be promoted and make money. Right now, I just hope that being an official will bring benefits to the place."
Xiao Han smiled and waved his hands, saying nothing more.
In fact, in his opinion, most of the officials in the Tang Dynasty were good officials who worked sincerely. For example, Lao Feng in front of him, and Yuan Dake and others.
On a hot day, something that could be solved with just one order had to be brought here in person with a bunch of county magistrates and old farmers to see with their own eyes. Poor Zhang Bao was originally a little fat, but now that he is exposed to the sun, he is dark and...
It’s so fat that I can’t even look at it…
As the first and second leaders of a large administrative city, no one held an umbrella for them under the bright sun! They led the people to the paddy fields, took off their shoes, and went down to the mud fields to observe the rice in person! After finishing it in one day, it was dignified.
The governor and the city guard all look like clay monkeys, which makes people laugh at the sight of them.
But this is not asking for trouble, nor is it just a show like the later generations! It’s just because they know that farmers are also cunning, and only if they see it with their own eyes! In the future, they will wholeheartedly grow food well, not just to fool them.
The superiors fiddled with it at will.
Under the tree, Xiao Han and Lao Feng were chatting. In the distance, the fat cook, wearing a big bamboo hat, trotted over to them.
"Master Hou, here you go!" Without enough time to wipe the sweat from his fat face, the fat chef quickly took out two bamboo tubes from the trousers behind his back and handed them to Xiao Han.
When Xiao Han saw the bamboo tube, he immediately became energetic. Yi Gulu sat up from the recliner, took the bamboo tube, and shook it vigorously. Looking at Lao Feng's curious look, he hesitated and handed him one, indicating that he would open it.
.
"Master Hou, what is this?" Old Feng took the bamboo tube and looked around. Seeing Xiao Han's mysterious look, he frowned and pulled off the cover with both hands.
"Bang..." There was a crisp sound. Perhaps Lao Feng used too much strength, and the sound was also very loud when he pulled out the lid! A few drops of water splashed from the bamboo tube onto his face, causing him to violently
Shiver, this water is cold!
"Ice cubes? Why is there ice here?" After touching the water droplets on his face, Old Feng looked into the bamboo tube strangely. Several small square ice cubes were floating leisurely on the water, and a cool breath hit his face.
Come.
Hearing Old Feng's question, the fat chef suddenly felt nervous and looked at Xiao Han worriedly, fearing that the prodigal prince would reveal the method of making ice again.
This is a miracle of making ice in summer! If you hadn’t seen it with your own eyes, who would have believed that someone could make ice in this kind of weather? If nothing else, just by relying on this skill, you can earn countless money in the future.
!After all, who doesn’t want to get some ice cubes to cool down in the summer?
