I am the cook, but I am Li Er's son-in-law

Who is Zhengyang Gong?
What kind of people are under him?

Xue Rengui, a young general in white robes who beat foreigners to surrender—although he doesn't look so heroic, but not many people have seen him with his own eyes. It is rumored that he has sword eyebrows and star eyes, and is half as handsome as Zhengyang Gong.

A Wu Jue, who was in charge of the Fengchao for Lord Zhengyang, was born with the same skills as a fish and a wild goose. It was rumored in private that this girl was probably the reincarnation of the white tiger that rode under Lord Zhengyang's crotch in her previous life.

The killing spirit is really too heavy.

Although Zhou Xiaosan is not good-looking, there are many people who have seen him, and no one can praise his appearance without conscience, but... the power of words is infinite.

It is said that he was born with a vision, and he is also an extraordinary person.

To put it simply, he is ugly and very ugly.

Ke Yixin?
Too ordinary, really too ordinary.

In Zhuangzi near Chang'an City, just find twenty or thirty young men who grow crops, and there will be seventeen or eight of them who are similar to Yi Xin.

"Really?" A person still couldn't believe it, and continued to ask.

Yi Xin laughed helplessly: "Can I still lie to you? This is Dalang's territory, Brother Chen is still here, if I dare to fake my identity, he will probably screw my head off."

The man surnamed Chen shook his head: "It can't be screwed, it can't be screwed."

The crowd laughed.

Yi Xin waved his hand: "You are all experienced farmers, you should be able to recognize my identity, I am also a farmer."

"With Dalang's appreciation, just do some small experiments."

"This seedling method is something that Dalang took out and asked me to verify it."

As he spoke, Yi Xin poured himself a glass of water in advance, and continued talking endlessly.

The fields are the purest places.

Burying himself there, and then stubbornly taking root, sprouting, and growing, he has become generous, and even developed in a shameless direction.

He often deals with farmers, and he also knows what to say to impress this group of people, instead of... the empty and boring data written in the paper.

After hearing this, these people gradually let go of their hearts.

A farmer will never ruin his job, not to mention, with the guarantee of Mr. Zhengyang, under this double insurance, they have more or less confidence in this thinning method.

just wait...

When Xiazhong will start broadcasting, they will be able to participate in it smoothly, and they will be exempted from corvee labor and agricultural tax for a year.

The propaganda work in the villages and towns near Chang'an is very good, but... After leaving Chang'an, the work has not been so smooth.

Whether it is the nearest Luoyang, or the slightly further Taiyuan and Yangzhou, they do not have the unique conditions of the villages near Chang'an.

They are too far away from Chang'an.

As for the officials who preach the thinning method, they themselves don't know much about the thinning method, and even...most of them haven't even read the paper.

They couldn't quite understand what they said, so how could they expect the ordinary farmers to understand.

Fortunately...

This thing is only semi-mandatory, let those landlords and rich people take out a piece of land as an experiment, of course, those with titles, such as county men and county sons, are mandatory.

Ordinary people may or may not participate.

Although it is indeed quite tempting to reduce or exempt one-year corvee and not collect agricultural taxes in the experimental field, but... ordinary people don't care about this thing.

Even some poorer families wished to be in corvée, wishing to be in corvée for a longer period of time.

Since the construction of trains and railways started.

The cost of corvée has been rising steadily, and there may be no way to tell from the food and wages, but... In the past three years, the officials in charge of corvée alone have dealt with [-] corrupt officials.

Relying on corvee to earn more and subsidize the family has become one of the things that these poor people look forward to most in a year.

Juzhou is an exception.

Yi Xin has taken root in Juzhou, and the people nearby have witnessed the results of the thinning method, how they are cultivated step by step, and how they can get more harvests.

Ordinary people don't understand, and the work of propaganda officials is not very good.

Those landlords and gentry have their channels of understanding.

Either ask about it from the court, or ask someone to bring a magazine back from Chang'an, and read what is written in the magazine.

The data is detailed and convincing.

They were moved. If it was true... how much profit they would get, just when they were about to agree to it, a piece of news suddenly disrupted their plan.

The Wang family in Taiyuan and the Zheng family in Xingyang do not intend to participate in this experiment, and even... In order not to lose their reputation, they took out a batch of land and prepared to sell it to ordinary people who want to participate, or are willing to participate in the experiment.

not only that.

In Chang'an City, that Lu Guogong also sold some land, and the house minister also sold some land.

It was as if these high-ranking people, who were almost at the same status as Lord Zhengyang, had heard some terrible rumors, as if they didn't trust this experiment.

In order to evade their due responsibilities, they even gave away the land that should not be sold.

This was the first shell that crushed their confidence.

And...the arrival of the second cannonball directly sank their confidence.

The imperial court intends to negotiate with Fengchao and prepare a guarantee so that ordinary people can borrow money from the bank to buy some land for experimentation.

Does this look like an experiment?
Landlords and gentry don't think so, no matter how you look at it... they all think that the imperial court is taking this opportunity to attack those gentry.

Ordinary landlords are fine, they just wonder if this "thinning method" is true.

But those gentry were different, they panicked.

Could it be that if the experiment is not successful, they will be dragged into prison for an excuse, have their legs broken by rosewood, and even lose their heads?
Taiyuan King and Xingyang Zheng led a wave of Fengchao. In the lands affected by the experiment, many gentry began to prepare to sell their land in order to avoid this incident. Of course... not many.

And Li Shimin, after making preparations for this period of time.

Tidy up the clothes, no longer as casual as in the past, even prepared a red robe court dress, wore the official seal and fish charm, pretended to be a sixth-rank official, and rushed to the same room early in the morning when he was resting. Fu restaurant to go.

Generally speaking, when talking about loans with banks, it should be done by the household department.

But this time, the Ministry of Household Affairs is very busy promoting the thinning method.

Li Shimin himself was also a little ready to move, and wanted to try it himself.

To the restaurant.

Li Shimin was amiable, serious, and told Yin Xuan his intention of coming. He was ready to confront his son-in-law and use his perfect tongue to persuade his son-in-law.
