Crossing the green wheat ears

The summer of this year was spent building a winemaking workshop and a sugar workshop, and caring about the growth of sweet sorghum beet seedlings. During this period, Wei Cheng returned to Lianhua Village for more than a month.

It's impossible not to go back, the two of them are in Anqing, and Xiyang is taking care of the family, so no one went to the capital this year.

At the beginning, Xiyong Xichangfei made a very sensible statement that everything was fine with him, and the older brothers only felt relieved to help the fifth brother through the difficulties, and solemnly stated that although he was only a small editor in the Imperial Academy in the capital, but , If there is something at home and with my fifth brother, I must speak up, and I must do my best. In short, all kinds of support and understanding.

Then, when Xi Wei's big policy is formulated, the brothers have a little leisure time, and Xiyong's letter begins to express all kinds of emotions about living in Beijing. He is tired of coping with the complicated interpersonal relationship in the officialdom. Her hair is turning gray, why she is alone, with no one to accompany her on holidays, why the capital city is prosperous, but she is not used to her living habits, food and drink... In short, all kinds of complaints.

The brothers read Xiaoyong's letter, and they were angry and laughed at the same time. You said that you are a small editor, and you are nothing more than doing some copying and writing. How can you participate in all kinds of complicated officialdom?Besides, Xiaoyong's daughter-in-law was escorted to the capital to reunite with him early last year, and she is with her now. Moreover, his uncle, who sent his sister off at that time, never came back.There is also food, afraid that Xiaoyong is not used to it, the family is now sending Li Dong's wife, one is to save Li Dong and his wife from the pain of living in two places, and the other is to take care of Xiaoyong's diet. The mother and the second aunt specially trained Li Dong's daughter-in-law, and taught Xiaoyong all the dishes that Xiaoyong likes to eat, so that he can still get used to it?

After being angry and laughing, the elder brothers began to feel sorry for the younger brother again. Although Xiaoyong is sensible, he is the youngest in the family except Changshuo. A kind of dependence. In addition, the child is probably homesick and homesick.

So, after thinking about it, Xiyuan discussed with Wei Cheng, asking him to go home first to replace Xiyang, and then ask Xiyang to go to the capital to see Xiaoyong, and take a look at the business of the medicine shop in the capital by the way, and I told him that if the second uncle and the second aunt could relax, they would also take them to the capital to see the prosperity of the capital, and to see Xiaoyong and his wife.

Although Wei Cheng was reluctant and didn't want to leave Xiyuan, he had no choice but to go back slowly.Fortunately, Xiyang understood the situation on Xiwei's side, so he didn't stay any longer. He came back after more than a month, and Wei Chengfang returned.

Although Wei Cheng didn't participate in the management of Xi Wei's specific affairs, he played a big role.

As the saying goes, a strong dragon can't hold back a local snake. When we first came here, the local snakes in Anqing didn't take it easy on Xi Wei. Later, it went too far. Wei Cheng and the few leading tyrants had a serious fight , Subdued those few.

When the leader is gone, other talents will follow and be honest, so that things can be implemented smoothly.The few tyrants who were subdued by him were convinced of Wei Changshan, and basically only Wei Cheng followed suit.Therefore, Wei Cheng's deterrent effect is still great. With him around, no one would dare to criticize.

Before the Mid-Autumn Festival, the two workshops were finally completed, and the rest was waiting for the harvest of sweet sorghum and sugar beet in the field.Fortunately, it didn't take long to wait. After the Mid-Autumn Festival, the autumn harvest was coming soon, and the two workshops began to operate.

When the winemaking workshop produced the first jar of good wine, when the sugar workshop produced the first handful of snow-white sugar, Xi Wei's eyes were red, and he hugged his brother excitedly for several times.

Xiyuan was also happy, and drank a few more glasses of wine in the evening, and then greatly took advantage of someone.

What I owed some time ago, I can’t wait to make up for it overnight, eat a full meal, um, I burp until I’m full, and for a few days, I’m happy, and I’m so happy that I’ve been going on and almost grinning behind my ears state to go.

Of course, Xiyuan was miserable. For two days in a row, he lay listlessly on the kang to recharge his energy, and he gave someone a glance after another. However, he didn't take it seriously at all. Walking around outside the house, humming a little song non-stop, Xiyuan was so angry that he wished he could sew Wei Cheng's mouth shut.

Well, in the past half a year, it is true that Wei Cheng was ignored because of Xiao Wei's affairs. No wonder people raised the banner to rebel, and Xi Yuan found a reason to forgive someone in his heart.

Sugar and wine have been produced, and these two items are definitely in high demand in Dayan Country, and the supply has been in short supply, so there is no need to worry about selling them.

Xi Wei followed the practice of Lianhua Village in the past, and set up special shops in several places in the Northland, and sold them to the outside world. The manpower was selected in advance, and they were sent to the Lotus Food Shop for an internship early. , Settle accounts and manage money well.

The so-called wine is not afraid of deep alleys. If there are good things, there must be people who know the goods.At the beginning, not many people knew about it, and the sales were mediocre, but after the new year, those old customers began to come back to buy, and they spread the word, bringing many new customers, little by little, Anqing sorghum Wine, Anqing Snowflake Candy, is completely famous, not only well-known by people in the Northland, but also in the capital area and further south, there are special traveling merchants who come to Anqing or other sales points set up by Anqing in the Northland to buy goods and sell them back .

Last year, those farmers who stubbornly refused to plant sweet sorghum and beets were so regretful that their intestines were almost green.

Because the facts speak louder than words, the few sweet sorghum produced in the fields of the few that were persuaded not only sold the sorghum ears, but also sold the straw for a lot of money.The same is true for beets, how many there are, and how much other people's workshops charge.The money sold was enough to live a good year, and the remaining money was exchanged for grain, enough to eat and drink for the next year.

The villagers who know these households are envious, no way.

Therefore, in the spring of the new year, there is no need to mobilize. People spontaneously and consciously find a way, and every household begins to plant sweet sorghum and sugar beets on a large scale.

The first shot was fired, with a good start, and a good image and reputation have been established. Now, the magistrate of Xi County asks everyone to plant those kinds of herbs and spread alfalfa seeds on the meadow. Doubtful, all gladly accepted.However, few cattle and sheep were raised at the beginning. After all, these large livestock required too much capital. It was not until a few years later that people had more money in their hands that they formed a scale.

At that time, the large meadow within the boundary of Anqing County was no longer a patch of white flowers, but was covered with alfalfa grass, which was enough for cattle and sheep to eat happily.

In the place of Anqing, Xi Weixi Changruo served as county magistrate for three times. After nine years, when he left office, Anqing, which was originally poor and white, had become a famous production base of sorghum wine and snowflake sugar in Dayan Kingdom, and it was also a cattle and sheep farm. The main production areas of Anqing, as well as the main suppliers of medicinal materials such as wolfberry, licorice, plantain, and safflower, Anqing people do not produce food themselves, but every household has plenty of food and has surplus money.

Moreover, like Yansui, the development of Anqing County has also driven several surrounding counties, especially Mingda County, which is similar to Anqing. Compared with the time when people starve to death, it is already a world of difference.

As the saying goes, the person who digs the well is not forgotten when drinking water. Therefore, when the magistrate of Xi County left office, the people in the whole county of Anqing went to see him off, weeping and crying hard to persuade him to stay.However, Xi Changruo still resolutely resigned.

Originally, Xi Wei was promoted because of his outstanding political achievements. However, he was not greedy for official position, so he wrote a letter to resign, saying that he was educated and raised by his elder brother since he was a child. Now he has been away from home for nine years. The elder brother is also old, so after blessing one side, I hope to go home to fulfill my filial piety and be with the elders and elder brothers.

Because of his earnest words and firm attitude, Emperor Tianyou had to let him go. To put it bluntly, the Great Yan Kingdom ruled the world with filial piety. People have done their best for the country and the king. You still prevent them from going home to fulfill their filial piety. ah.

"Hey, I've lost another talent!" Emperor Tianyou couldn't help but let out a long sigh. Tell me about your elder brother, Xi Changruo, your elder brother is only in his 40s, so why did you become so old that you have to go back to accompany him? Have you repaid the kindness of your childhood upbringing?

But they didn't just say that they want to be filial and fraternal elder brothers. They also focused on their grandparents. These four are indeed not young. You can't refute even if you want to refute it.

Well, if you can't keep Xi Changruo, then find a way to keep Xi Changfei.Emperor Tianyou had to admit that the Yansuixi clan in Binjiang Prefecture, not to mention the best ones, were almost the same. The children of the Xi clan generally understood poetry and books, were well-versed in business affairs, well-versed in people's livelihood, open-minded, and often came up with strange ideas. I think that being a local official can benefit one party, and serving in a certain ministry can benefit the subordinates.

However, there is also a common problem among the children of the Xi family, that is, they are not more than 50 years old when they are officials.

Especially that Xi Changfei, originally the emperor wanted to train him for a few more years, and then promoted him to be the prime minister of the court, so as to leave a capable general for his son when he succeeds. Withdrawing the ladder is really embarrassing!

If you want to keep it, people can always find reasons that you cannot refute!What a sad person. In this world, there is such a family. The children in the family do not covet high position, do not covet glory and wealth, and do not get blinded by money and sex. Hey!

The moonlight enters the house, the Emperor Tianyou in the palace, if he is not old, he would like to go to Yansui Lianhua Village to see for himself, to see what kind of magic power is there, to attract such a good talent as Dayan, he would rather give up the high-ranking officials Hou Lu, want to go back to such a small village? !

Also, he has heard that before Yansui was not as famous as it is now, there was a small official in the household department who was in charge of the accounts of several counties in Yansui in the north. Bo has a good understanding of the situation in several counties in Yansui.Later, he was implicated and imprisoned, and was finally sentenced to exile in the North.

Hearing that he was going to be exiled to the Northland, the petty official was already prepared to go to Yansui without returning, but when he heard that he was going to Yansui, he looked up to the sky with a long smile, knelt down, and headed towards the direction of Miyagi. "Bang bang bang" kowtowed three times, repeatedly shouted the emperor's grace, and then happily went to be exiled.

Then, he really went and never returned. Not only did he go by himself, but within two years, he moved his home! ! !

After a long, long time, when Emperor Tianyou heard about this incident, he was very speechless, and had the urge to ask someone to look up the name of that petty official, and then conscript him back to the imperial court...

Well, during his reign, there were so few places that took off the hat of poverty and became the rich towns of the Great Yan Kingdom. As the emperor himself, he also had a deep relationship with glory, and illuminated the history books clatter!

Emperor Tianyou comforted himself silently.
