Chapter 2901 Encounter (3 for book friend Murong Qingqing)
Chapter 2901 Encounter (Additional update 3 for the reward for book friend "Murong qingqing")
Bai Shan arrived suddenly, and neither Chief Jia Li nor Village Chief Huai was prepared, so when Bai Shan asked about the details, they were stuck.
Village Chief Huai could only wipe off his sweat by subtracting some of last year's harvest and downgrading it. For example, a total of ten bags of wheat were harvested instead of eight bags.
But Bai Shan didn't just ask about the year, and he didn't just ask about the general public. He also asked the village chief how many pieces of land his family had, where it was, and what the harvest was last year and the year before...
In addition to asking the village chief, he can also ask the villagers.
So mid-sentence, before the village chief could react, Chief Jia was already breaking out in a cold sweat. He realized that after asking this question, the numbers before and after seemed to be inconsistent.
Finally, it was dark outside and everyone went to have dinner before the topic stopped.
Finally, Jia Lichang returned to Dajing Village worriedly.
As soon as Jia Lichang left, Bai Shan smiled and asked Village Chief Huai, "How long does it take to get to Dajing Village from here?"
Village Chief Huai said: "Soon, we took a shortcut through the fields and arrived there in more than a quarter of an hour. It takes about two-quarters of an hour to walk."
That was indeed not long ago.
"This county remembers that in addition to being in charge of Dajing Village and Xiaojing Village, Chief Jia Li is also in charge of Xiaoliu Village? Where is Xiaoliu Village?"
Village Chief Huai pointed in a direction and said, "It's just behind that mountain."
Bai Shan looked over, but it was already dark now. It was so dark that he couldn't see it at all. He asked, "Is there a way through that mountain?"
"No," the village chief said, "There is only one road leading outside in Xiaoliu Village. You have to go back the same way the adults came in the afternoon. There is a trail going up the mountain. From there, just go up and cross the mountain.
"
The village chief sighed: "The place is too remote and difficult to find. I haven't been through that area for a long time. I don't know if the paths are all covered with grass. The adults might not have noticed it when they came here on horseback.
"
"You don't go out often?"
The village chief smiled and said, "I'm old, and it's far from the town. Why do I go out?"
"Then are there markets between your villages?"
"Yes, it's in Dongshan Village, just past Dajing Village."
"Then the people from Xiaoliu Village won't come down to the market?"
"Come here occasionally. The place is remote and difficult to get in and out. If they come out over the mountains, there is no need to come here to catch the market. They can just go directly to the town."
"Is the town more advanced than Dongshan Village?"
"No," there was no Jia Li. Chief Huai had something to say, and said directly: "It's farther than Dongshan Village, but the town has all the things. We have already climbed over the mountain. There must be a lot of things to buy.
Who would come to Dongshan Village? Anyway, the town is not much further than Dongshan Village."
Bai Shan: "When we came from the county town, we saw a fork in the road going down. Where is the town?"
"Yes, we still have to walk a long way down to get there."
Bai Shan nodded and let Village Chief Huai go and let him rest.
Bai Shan turned around and went back to the house assigned to him. Man Bao was playing with her medicinal materials inside. They lit the candles they brought, so the light was still good.
Bai Shan said: "Tomorrow I will leave everyone with you. You stay at the free clinic in Xiaojing Village, and I will go to Dajing Village."
Man Bao looked up at him and said, "I'll go with you."
Just as Bai Shan was about to speak, Man Bao whispered: "It's safer to take me with you, and since our hands are scattered, it's hard to escape in case of an accident. It's better to stay together."
Bai Shan stopped talking.
Early the next morning, Jia Lichang arrived as soon as they woke up. This shows how attentive he was, as he came before dawn.
Man Bao and Wen Tiandong hung up the banners for free clinics, but only three people came for consultation. This time, Man Bao didn't ask about their health conditions one by one. He only treated those who came, prescribed medicine and then left.
Dongxi and Baishan walked to Dajing Village.
Along the way, Bai Shan was looking at the young people in Xiaojing Village, and found that few people were in the village, so he smiled and asked, "Have everyone in the village gone to the fields to harvest wheat today?"
"Yes," Chief Jia said before Chief Huai: "You can't miss the farming season. After the wheat is harvested, you have to plant rice, so you have to seize the time to harvest."
Bai Shan nodded approvingly, "Yes, we can't miss the farming season."
He looked around and said: "Come on, let's go to the fields to see how the wheat is doing this year. I also want to see the rice fields where you are raising seedlings."
Chief Jia Li and Village Chief Huai said there was no problem, and together they took them to the fields to watch people harvesting wheat.
Perhaps because they knew that officials were coming to see them harvest wheat, the people in the field were particularly excited and worked very hard today. Especially after seeing Bai Shan, their hands moved faster.
Bai Shan walked to the field and looked at the young adults in the field. Seeing that their arms were strong, he patted their shoulders with satisfaction and praised: "Not bad, you are so diligent, why worry about not being rich?"
Chief Jia Li and Chief Huai were very happy to hear Bai Shan's praise, so they walked directly across the fields to Dajing Village without walking.
Dajing Village is also harvesting wheat. The fields of the two villages are intertwined. The fields of Xiaojing Village are allocated to the other side of Dajing Village. Naturally, the fields of Dajing Village are allocated to this side. However, the closer to Dajing Village, the more fields there are.
Most of them belong to the villagers of Dajing Village.
Bai Shan did not go in a straight line, but walked wherever he saw people. In addition to watching them harvest wheat, he also asked about the conditions in the fields.
After getting to know each other, carefully look at the young and strong people in the family. If you see the strong ones, you will pat their shoulders with approval. If you see the thin ones, you will tell them to eat more and exercise more.
Da Jin regards strength as beauty.
When he was about to enter Dajing Village, Bai Shan found several young men in a field, but there were no women, older children, or elderly people. He walked over curiously.
Everyone followed and turned around together.
Just when we reached the end of the field, a young man happened to get up and walk towards the field ridge with a bundle of wheat in each hand.
Bai Shan paused as he glanced at his face, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and looked at him again with a look of admiration and satisfaction, "This young man is pretty good, he looks very powerful."
Man Bao also saw the other person's face, and slowly moved his eyes to look at the other people's faces. When he saw two familiar people, he turned his head and spoke to Wen Tiandong, "You have a medicine kit with you, follow closely.
If it's heavy, we'll let the guards carry the medicine box."
Wen Tiandong also felt that the young man walking over looked too familiar, especially the portrait he saw at Lord Bai's place last night.
He glanced at his husband and nodded, but still carried his medicine box without moving.
The young man walked over with a smile on his face and greeted Chief Jia cheerfully, "Chief, why are you in the fields? It's hot."
The smile on Jia Lichang's face was faint, but he still smiled and said to him: "Don't you see the county magistrate is here? Come up and pay homage to your lord."
