The academic competition in the college is in full swing, but the governor's office is not quiet either.
Zhizhou Jugu was sitting on the main seat in the back room of the government office. He had a letter in his hand, but he didn't touch it. He just closed his eyes and drank tea. His posture was leisurely, his face was rosy, and there was a faint sense of joy.
.
Tongjuan Zoucheng, with a pale face, walked into the house with his head lowered. When he looked up, he breathed a sigh of relief.
He had taken leave for several days to urgently deal with the loan loan issue of his wife. Although he wanted to follow Zhizhou to prevent the villain from doing anything behind his back, but after all, the matter was complicated and he could not allow others to interfere. He really couldn't get away from it.
Come on.
I finished handling the last bit of evidence at home today, and just as I felt a little more relaxed, I suddenly received a message from my servant, saying that Lord Zhizhou had invited me and I needed to go quickly.
His heart immediately trembled, and he thought that the matter was revealed, but now it seems that he was overly worried.
"Lord Zhizhou."
Zoucheng walked in and bowed, and Jugu opened his eyes and smiled.

"You're here, have you recovered in these days?"
Zhizhou put down the tea cup in his hand and looked at his subordinates, with a hint of concern in his words.
"Thank you for your concern, Mr. Zhizhou. I'm almost recovered and can go to the Yamen tomorrow."
"Well, that's fine. At our age, we still have a long way to go as officials, so we should take care of ourselves."
Ju Gu glanced at the envelope in his hand and saw what he was saying, but Zoucheng had the usury issue in his mind and didn't hear it.
"I wonder what the important matter is for Lord Zhizhou to urgently recruit subordinates this time."
Zhizhou stroked his beard under his chin, stretched out his hand, and asked people to sit down and talk.
"Haha, we can't talk about important things, but it is indeed a good thing."
Zoucheng bowed before taking his seat, and then asked, "What is it that can make Master Zhizhou say yes? I wonder if I will be lucky enough to hear it."
"Do you still remember the rice and fish that the Five Blessings served at my birthday party?"
"Rice fish?"
Is it the river fish that the businessman said grows in the rice fields?
He also thought that the businessman just bought some fish from a vendor who didn't know where, and used it as a pretense to flatter him. But now Zhizhou mentioned it again, could this be true?
Speaking of this, how come this smart person from Zoucheng didn't know what Ju Gu meant? He immediately stood up and clasped his fists in congratulations.
"Congratulations, sir, congratulations, sir, you are blessed with such great auspiciousness!"
After saying that, he praised again: "It is only through your herdsmen's skill that we can achieve this result!"
His flattery made Ju Gu feel comfortable all over. With the corners of his mouth slightly raised, he stood up and gently helped Zoucheng up, who was hunched over.
"Rice and fish are really rare, but the good news doesn't stop there."
After saying that, Ju Gucai sat down, picked up the letter at hand and handed it to Zoucheng.
"Just take a look at this and then talk about it."

"This is?"
When Zoucheng received the letter, he saw only the four words "Zhizhou Qinqi" at the top, and knew that what was written in it must be of great importance.
He opened the envelope carefully, unfolded the letter with a serious face, and read carefully from right to left.
But this was not enough. After only one stick of incense, Zoucheng's fingers were trembling slightly, his breathing was heavy, and with a look of disbelief on his face, he carefully asked: "Master Zhizhou, what is written on this is absolutely true.
Really?!"
"Absolutely true."
When Ju Gu himself read the letter, he was no more excited than his subordinates. Seeing his appearance now, everyone felt sad.
If it wasn't Shifang's letter and he was saying what he saw with his own eyes, he wouldn't believe it even if anyone else told him.
Who would have thought that a small village in an ordinary county like Nanzi County could be so different!
"Ignoring the method of raising feeds, the fact that rice and fish can increase rice yield per acre, as long as it is reported to the imperial court, the prefect will be promoted!"
Zoucheng's face was filled with red at this time. He was not only praising Shangguan, but also happy for himself.
A state magistrate, a state general magistrate, a county magistrate, as long as they are related to the increase in rice and fish production, I am afraid that their seats will be moved up!
"Well, the method of increasing rice and fish production is indeed beneficial to the country and the country, but do you have any ideas about another thing mentioned in the letter?"
Ju Gu twirled his beard under his chin, picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said something.
"You mean..."
"Threshing machine?"
Putting down the tea cup, Ju Gu nodded, "However, although the rice-fish method is good, it can increase the yield in the southeastern region of my country, but the bitter cold in the northwest is not suitable for rice growth, so it still has limitations."
"But this is not the case with the threshing machine. This thing is very efficient and easy to use. It can relieve the people's hard work. If it can be popularized, who among the people of Dasheng will not praise the emperor's benevolence?!"
Hearing this, Zoucheng was greatly shocked.
As expected, Lord Zhizhou has such far-reaching thoughts!
That’s it!
Emperor Dasheng has been on the throne for more than 20 years now. Since he succeeded to the throne, he has been implementing benevolent policies. He loves the people like a son. If he can offer this gift, wouldn't it be the most in line with his wishes?
"Congratulations, Lord Zhizhou!"
Ju Gu only waved his hand and seemed not to care about Zoucheng's flattery. He just took back the letter and put it aside, then leaned on the back of the chair and said calmly, "I have written a memorial on this matter and submitted it to you."
The imperial court, as for the person who came up with the method of increasing rice and fish production and made the threshing machine, I should first reward him."
"My lord, Zhizhou, has considered everything, but the road to Nanzi County is very far, and it is seven or eight days' journey from the state capital. It is better for me to let the lower officials make the trip on my behalf, which will save me the trouble of traveling and traveling."
Zoucheng quickly bowed and asked for an errand to come over, but Jugu just laughed and didn't answer.
"It's a coincidence. Based on Shifang's income, the person who came up with the method of making rice and fish and the person who made the threshing machine are actually the same family. They are both husband and wife. It's really strange."
"Oh? There is such a strange thing?"
Zoucheng just made a joke and wanted to ask for the job again, but Jugu followed up by saying: "The name of this threshing machine is 'Shen's threshing machine', which is the surname of this person."
"Haha, I'm afraid you don't know that this person is also the head of this summer's court trial. He is a real little Sanyuan."
"Sir, do you think this person's surname is Shen?"

For some reason, Zoucheng's heart suddenly skipped a beat, and he had a bad premonition.
"Of course, this son's name is Shen Ling. I have sent someone to check him out. He is currently studying at a government school, so I can spare you the trouble of this trip."
Shen Ling?!
This! How could it be this kid?!
Zoucheng's expression suddenly changed.
It was this man who, a few days ago, threatened his general judge in the government office, and then left with his wife and family in a swaggering manner.
Wife and family!
A figure kneeling in front of him appeared in his mind.qqxsΠew
The way to increase rice and fish production was actually the girl's idea?
What's the point of all this?!

I had just caused trouble for them, and I was even preparing to find another opportunity to punish the two of them, but when I turned around, the actions of these two people were all going to be reported to the emperor, and they were going to be greatly rewarded!
What kind of plague god has he encountered?
Zoucheng's eyesight went dark, he was filled with shock and doubt, sweat was pouring down his forehead, and he couldn't even stand still, let alone answer Zhizhou's words.
Seeing that the man didn't answer for a long time, Ju Gu looked up and saw that his subordinate's complexion was green and white, with a sluggish look on his face. He thought that his body had not recovered, so he granted him a few more days off to recover and come back again. Yamen.
As for the award, it was up to him to do it himself.
…
The second day of the college competition is the arithmetic test.
The students still stood in the square in front of the official school hall. The Master first asked five questions and then distributed the answer sheets. After three quarters, the papers were collected and the top five were taken.
Shen Ling stood among the crowd. When he saw the topic, his usually cold and reserved face couldn't help but reveal a hint of laughter.
What was just a joke turned out to be true.

It turned out that last night, Ke'er didn't let him go to bed early because he wanted to bet on a question. He just thought that the other party was playful and noisy, so he stayed with him. Who would have thought that the five questions that the master asked today , this girl hit four of them at once, and the remaining one was the one that he and Li Shoucheng had solved before.
Shen Ling thought to himself, not sure if this was considered fraud.
As everyone knows, if Zhuang Keqing were present, he would definitely say that he could bet on the right question type, which is also part of his strength. If you are not convinced, would you like to bet on one and try it?
