As Chen Xi said, Zhao Yun and Jian Yong rushed back at noon the next day, but they were both energetic and in a good mood. After all, at this time, anyone who saw the harvests of millet would be happy.
Happy.
"Xianhe, Zilong, have you checked the taxes of each county?" Chen Xi asked as he poured a cup of tea for the two of them.
"It's a great harvest. Except for some people who planted late, people everywhere have already entered the autumn harvest. We won't have to live such a tight life next year." Jian Yong looked excited. After all, he had a lot of credit for this matter.
"Zilong, please tell me, by the way, take these things away when you leave. The people near Mount Tai gave them to you voluntarily. I am eating mine." Chen Xi turned his head and said to Zhao Yun, then stretched out his fingers.
He pointed to several baskets in the corner of the Government Affairs Office. There were chestnuts, pine nuts, some fungus and mushrooms in them.
These nuts and mountain delicacies are all given to Zhao Yun by the common people after the autumn harvest has begun in the past few days, to thank him for the gifts he has provided during this period. It is said that Zhao Yun may not accept them, but Chen Xi's standard is to accept all comers, anyway.
He felt that he could eat it with peace of mind, and he felt that it was natural and unceremonious.
It is said that there are also gifts for Chen Xi and Liu Bei, but compared to Zhao Yun who has been running around, there are much less gifts for Chen Xi and Liu Bei. There is no way, Zhao Yun's handling of the common people in the fields during this period is obvious to all. In this era, it is possible to meet a man who puts the common people first.
As an important official, everyone was naturally extremely grateful.
"Zichuan, how can you accept gifts from the people? It's not easy for the people all year round. It takes a lot of hard work to pick these things. How can you eat pine nuts with such peace of mind?" Zhao Yun heard that these pine nuts were all given by the people.
, immediately stopped grabbing the pine nuts with his right hand, and said with an upright face.
After running around for more than three months, Zhao Yun finally saw the misery of the people at the bottom. He worked at sunrise and rested at sunset. He faced the loess every day just for the grain in the fields, praying for God's blessing and the benevolence of officials. He only hoped for the coming year.
Be able to have a hearty meal.
The more he walked and saw more, the anger in Zhao Yun's chest became more and more vigorous, and he felt more and more how heavy the courage was on his shoulders. For the first time, he felt that he should have learned more about farming, even if he could make the people
Eating three to five more bushels of food is also a meritorious deed, which is more glorious than killing an enemy general in battle. It's a pity that he doesn't understand. He can only help the people within his own ability.
Chen Xi told him that some of the old farmers who have been farming all year round can do very well. If you want everyone to produce as much food as those old farmers, you should go find those old farmers and talk to them to see if you can get those inconspicuous things.
technology, so Zhao Yun traveled throughout Mount Tai, using his own eyes to see which piece of grain grew best, and then went to the owner of the land to inquire about the technology.
Zhao Yun ran for three months and traveled all over Mount Tai. He found all the techniques he could find and taught them to others as much as possible. Therefore, the residents of Taishan County may not know Liu Bei, but they definitely know the white-robed Zhao Zilong.
, because Zhao Yun has been running around in the farmland.
To be honest, when Chen Xi knew this, he admired Zhao Yun's spirit because he couldn't do it. He was very good at talking, but he couldn't do things like running around and breaking his legs.
Chen Xi believed that maybe Zhao Yun was not good at farming before, but when he confronted Chen Xi over the farming order with a gun, he already knew as much about farming as an old farmer, and now even if Zao Zhi comes, he may not be able to do it.
To surpass Zhao Yun in farming, at least Zao Zhi didn't have the energy to travel all over Chenliu to collect all the farming techniques, while Zhao Yun had already run out of Taishan County.
"Zilong, you must accept these things, and if you don't accept them, they won't leave, and the people will not rest assured. They will recognize you, Zhao Zilong. As long as you accept them, they will believe that you will lead them to reclaim wasteland next year.
He will also lead them to implement this year's decree. If you don't accept it, a group of people will kneel in front of your house tomorrow, dragging their children with them." Chen Xi broke open a pine nut, ate the kernel, and raised his head.
, looked at Zhao Yun and said solemnly.
"Zichuan is right, it must be accepted. We didn't confiscate it at first, but he kept waiting there with the package. He went back in the evening and came back the next day without saying a word." Lu Su also took a pine nut.
Breaking it aside, "What they want is peace of mind. Only if you eat the food they send, will they believe that you will not change this year's decree. This style is simple, but effective."
"It's that simple." Chen Xi nodded, "You can try not to accept it. Anyway, someone will come over and give it to you in an hour and a half. You can give it a try."
Before Chen Xi finished speaking, a little old man wearing linen clothes and patches came into the government affairs office carrying a small basket. It was said that since people kept giving gifts, Chen Xi and Lu Su stopped people from stopping people from entering the government affairs office.
Hall.
"The little old man has met the county governor, the county magistrate, Mr. Jian, and Mr. Zilong." After putting down the cage, the little old man bowed to several people in fear, but after seeing Zhao Yun, his face was obviously excited.
"Old gentleman, no courtesy." Chen Xi smiled, took a cushion from the side and walked over to hand it to the old man. Under normal circumstances, outsiders are not allowed to enter the Government Affairs Office, and all cushions have a number.
The little old man hurriedly refused Chen Xi's cushion, and was finally pressed down by Chen Xi. He carefully sat on the cushion, took the carrier behind him and took out a linen package.
"Mr. Zilong, thank you for leading our village to reclaim wasteland this year and teaching us farming techniques. We in Zhuangzi don't have any good gifts to thank you. These are the dates from the little old man's Zhuangzi jujube tree. Please accept them."
"
Chen Xi glanced at the large bag of red dates, each one was bright, and he knew at a glance that it was a high-quality, pollution-free green product.
Zhao Yun declined righteously, and then the little old man was frightened. He kept saying good things to Zhao Yun, hoping that he would accept it. Then Zhao Yun began to explain to the little old man that he would do this again next year and there would be no general direction.
The old man was reassured by the changes in the book, and then he took the gift back, as long as it came to his mind. As a result, the old man who was stumbling in speech suddenly became fluent in speech, saying that if Zhao Yun did not accept his dates, he would not go back...
The little old man left, but the dates stayed. Chen Xi took one and took a bite, looking sideways at Zhao Yun, "Zilong, what do you think?"
"I always feel a little guilty." Zhao Yun sighed and said, somewhat like a hero short of breath.
"It's a good thing to feel guilty. Next year, I will compensate for all the guilt in government affairs, make my government orders better, and let the people live a better life." Chen Xi continued to eat dates. Anyway, he is not as upright as Zhao Yun, sitting here
As long as you have a clear conscience when handling government affairs from the principal position.
"Thinking about what we brought to the people of Mount Tai, I decided to eat it. I have a clear conscience anyway~" Chen Xi bit the dates and ate them to show that he had a clear conscience.
