The next day, Zhao Kuo led an inspection team into Shaning County, which was governed by Huangshi Gong.
There is a large river in Shaning County. Because the water contains a lot of sediment, local people call it Shashui. Shaning means taking the quietness of the sandy water and ensuring peace.
Huang Shigong followed the example of Zheng Guo and set up stone weirs in the sandy water to form weir bones to slow down the flow of river water and precipitate sediment for irrigation.
Under Huang Shigong's governance, the agricultural level of Shaning County has rapidly improved, and the yield per mu has become the first in Jiuyuan County. Huang Shigong has also been rated as the best every year.
In addition, Huang Shigong also adapted to local conditions and planted oats in Shaning County that are more resistant to drought and salt-alkali, so that land that could not be cultivated can be cultivated.
Lifu also specially sent people to learn from it and promoted it to other counties.
Huang Shigong's governance level was even higher than that of Feng Quji. Feng Quji was naturally unable to find big problems. As for some insignificant issues, he would be embarrassed to talk about them even if he saw them.
You can point out mistakes if they are wrong, but if you point out some non-critical issues, it will really become a source of trouble.
He couldn't afford to lose this person.
Huang Shigong liked the donkey meat and venison brought by Feng Quji very much. With his salary, he could certainly afford beef and mutton, but it would take a long time to eat donkey meat and venison.
Moreover, these things are not easy to buy. Although they are raised in many places, they are made by the nobles themselves and are not taken out. Huang Shigong is not luxurious enough to raise these things just for food.
He is the kind of person who can eat delicious food best. It doesn't matter if he can't eat it, as long as he can eat enough.
The two counties of Han Fei and Li Si were a little far away from here. Zhao Kuo did not go there. The two of them ran over on their own, not sure whether it was to see Zhao Kuo or to eat meat.
Anyway, except for a small amount of time spent with Zhao Kuo, the rest of the time was basically spent eating.
"I've been coming to Hetao for two or three years, but I haven't tried this way of eating. It's so enjoyable. I feel like my life has been in vain." Han Fei patted his bulging belly and said with a satisfied look on his face, not like a noble man.
temperament.
"If the teacher sees this, he will definitely think you are embarrassed." Li Si glanced at Han Fei.
"I'm embarrassed? It's you who's embarrassing the teacher. How long has it been? You haven't been born with talent yet? I heard you say it's coming soon four or five years ago, but there's been no movement until now. I'm almost catching up now."
You're here." Han Fei spread out the fan in his hand and used his mental power to whip up a strong wind and fan him towards Li Si.
"I call it accumulation, but you don't understand." Li Si shook his head and waved his sleeves to block the sand and dust brought by the strong wind. "But it should be fast. I feel like I have reached a bottleneck recently."
Feng Quji looked at Li Si with envy. Although he was about to be gifted, his use of mental power was far inferior to Li Si.
"Early opening has the advantage of early opening, and late opening has the advantage of late opening. But we still let nature take its course. There is no need to suppress it too much." Huang Shigong said, he felt that Li Si suppressed it a little too harshly.
"Although the talent can be improved after it is turned on, there is no way to change it once the talent is fixed. My previous talent was a bit..." Li Si shook his head slightly. He felt that the previous talent was a bit of a trap, "So I cleared it.
Then I spent several years laying a solid foundation, making up for the shortcomings, and building a new one.”
"Can this thing be cleared? After it is cleared, can I get another one?" Feng Quji opened his mouth wide.
Do you think that talent is just a piece of cabbage and you can just get it if you want? I think of Feng Ting, who has been around for so many years and still doesn’t have talent, but you still think it’s not good and change him?
"No, but there is a Taoist secret technique called Zhuangzhou Mengdie, which can transform the mind into a distraction, and temporarily transfer the talent to the mind. When the talent is about to be born, the mind can be integrated into the body, so that the previous talent can be absorbed into the mind.
It's back. After the two talents are merged, they will definitely be stronger than before. If you don't want the previous talents, you can also break up the distraction." Li Si explained.
Only the Hui family and the Zhuang family have this secret technique in the world. Hui Shi was Zhuangzi's only friend during his lifetime, and they would argue together when nothing happened.
Xunzi paid a very high price to obtain Zhuang Zhou's secret technique of dreaming butterflies from the banker.
"Is this secret technique... easy to learn?" Feng Quji was a little eager to try it.
This is one of the very few secret techniques that can bring about a qualitative leap. Even if two ordinary talents are fused, they can become the top talents in the world.
"It's a bit difficult... but with your level it shouldn't be a problem." Li Si looked Feng Quji up and down and nodded.
"Are there any side effects?" Feng Quji asked. He didn't believe that such a powerful secret technique had no side effects. Then various countries had already seized the secret technique.
"Of course there are side effects, but the most you can do is lose yourself and shout a few words: "Butterfly is me, I am a butterfly. I should be able to recover after a few years." Li Si said calmly.
"Then forget it." Feng Quji quickly shook his head. He felt pretty good now. Although he didn't know what his talent was, it didn't matter what it was. He felt that the most important thing was people.
Even an ordinary talent can be used in his hands.
"Men should be cruel to themselves." Li Si patted Feng Quji on the shoulder and said sincerely.
"Then be cruel to yourself." Feng Quji didn't want to be fooled. He had already seen that Li Si was not a good person. He was the worst among the four.
There is also Han Fei, who is kind and kind all day long and always smiles when he sees everyone, but in fact he is also full of bad intentions.
Neither of these two brothers is a good person.
On the contrary, although Huang Shigong often bullied him, he didn't have any evil intentions. Compared with Li Si and Han Fei, he was like a white lotus.
Feng Quji had some doubts about whether they themselves were crooked or whether Xunzi had taught these two guys to be like this.
"You four, don't go back, just stay with me. I will let Li Fu appoint a new county magistrate." Zhao Kuo said.
All four of Li Si have talents as public ministers, and county magistrates are just temporary experiences. If they are allowed to serve as county magistrates for a long time, their talents will only be wasted.
Now that the world is facing war again, it's time for Li Si and the four of them to show their talents.
"No." The four of them were delighted and looked at each other.
Zhao Kuo took them with him and either followed the army or stayed in Handan. It seemed that Zhao was ready for the war.
But when Han Fei heard that Qin was attacking Sanchuan, he was worried. South Korea was sandwiched between big powers and was weak. It had been looking for ways to survive, but even with Han Fei's wisdom, he was helpless in the face of absolute strength.
For the next journey, Zhao Kuo did not continue to take the car, but chose to take a boat and go upstream along the river, from Jiuyuan to Shuofang, and then south to Helan County.
There were no accidents along the way.
The development of the Hetao has exceeded Zhao Kuo's expectations. On both sides of the river, there are canals and farmland opened up everywhere, which can not only grow millet and millet, but also rice, making the Hetao truly become a fortress in the south of the Yangtze River.
