I want to do research even if I have no money

"Are you asking about these flowers? These flowers have been around for a long time, and they are all wild. But at the beginning, there were only a few small pieces, not as many as I see now. It seems that some scattered farmers outside saw these flowers. Fold some and sell them in the market...Are these flowers beautiful? There are many people buying them, and those scattered farmers often come here to pick flowers.

After hearing what the tenant farmer said, Situ Meng asked again, "Do you know what flowers these are?"

"Huh?" The tenant farmer who was suddenly called by Situ Meng, who was plowing the fields nearby, was a little puzzled when asked, "Isn't this flower a poppies? Tsk... In this way, it is indeed different from the usual poppies." Some are different, maybe the climate here is different from other places, so the flowers grow differently?"

It turned out that they regarded these as poppies, Situ Meng thought to himself, indeed, poppies and poppies have similarities in appearance, especially those who did not know poppies before, took it as poppies Not surprising either.

Seeing the tenants leave, Jing Shen asked Situ Meng, "What are you going to do with these flowers?"

Situ Meng thought for a while, and planned to burn the poppy field with a fire in the simplest and most brutal way.

He did what he said, and at noon the next day he held a torch to burn the sea of ​​flowers. When the tenant farmers heard that he was going to burn the flowers, they put down their work and came to watch.

"Hey, what do you think this young master is doing? Why do you want to burn flowers all of a sudden?"

"Who knows? It is said that the young master and his family are high-ranking officials in the capital, what those noble people think, we can't imagine..."

"Oh, it's a pity that this flower field is so beautiful! My daughter likes to come here to pick flowers and decorate her home!"

"Ahem... everyone, be quiet!" Luo Wu said loudly, "Young Master has something to say!"

The crowd of onlookers gradually quieted down. Situ Meng took a step forward and said, "You must be wondering why I burned these flowers. This kind of flower is called 'poppy', and it is a 'forbidden flower' that is banned by the imperial court. Why not?" Why 'forbidden flowers'? That is, they cannot be cultivated privately. If the officials find out, they will be arrested and beheaded. If I don't burn all these forbidden flowers today, if they are exposed in the future, not only me, but also Everyone here has to be beheaded!"

"Isn't it? If you grow flowers, you will be beheaded... This... is really unheard of!"

"Young Master, then burn this flower quickly!"

"Yes, yes! It's about to burn!"

"Burn it, burn it!"

Situ Meng let out a sigh of relief slowly, looked at Jing Shen who was standing among the onlookers, and asked Luo Wu leader to pour oil on the flower field. As soon as his torch approached, the flower field was suddenly ignited.

Originally, he planned to explain the disadvantages of poppies to the tenant farmers in the manor, but Xiao Shen stopped him. Xiao Shen told him that if he really said that, there would be thousands of poisonous people who disregarded the lives of others for money. People, because in the face of huge interests, human willpower is not worth mentioning at all. For the sake of interests, they have nothing that they cannot abandon.

Situ Meng was taught another lesson by the black girl. Looking at the black smoke all over the sky, and hearing the cheering cheers of the tenant farmers, he suddenly felt a sense of mission.I can't tell why, but I suddenly feel that his words and actions are so important in the eyes of his tenants.

It was as if they lived because of him; or in other words, he was born because of them.

The burnt flower field was selected by Situ Meng as the planting site for the cotton field. The system is also very good, and the burned black and mushy field instantly becomes a new look, and even the saplings are planted.According to the old tenants of the manor, the cotton saplings rewarded by the system are also the best.

Such a fertile field is left unattended, and Situ Meng doesn't know whether the cotton seedlings rewarded by the system can still thrive without being taken care of.After thinking about it, he was still uneasy, so he held a bidding meeting in the manor, and asked the tenant farmers to bid individually.

When these tenant farmers had heard of the activity of "bidding", none of them knew, so they only had a vague understanding after Situ Meng's explanation.But the cotton field is located in a relatively remote location. There are only two tenants nearby. One of them has never grown cotton and dare not try it lightly. In the end, the tenant closest to the cotton field won the bid and obtained the lease qualification for the cotton field.

At night, in a village in Ningshan County.

Several young men gathered together and were complaining about the burning of the flower fields in Chengning Villa a few days ago.If any familiar tenants of the manor were present, they would definitely be able to recognize that these people were the ones who had been picking flowers in the flower fields of Chengning Villa and selling them in the market.

"Cutting people's wealth is equivalent to killing their parents! This kid, who did such a vicious thing at a young age, will be able to pay for it when he grows up?!"

"It's only been a few days since I came here, and I've learned how to stand up like others. If I really think I'm the owner of the villa, can I do anything wrong?"

"According to me, we still have to teach that kid a lesson, don't let him think that we are easy to bully!"

"That's right! He said 'forbidden flowers', I've never heard of it! Mostly it's nonsense! Can we be fooled by him if the old antiques in his manor are fooled by him?" The young man who spoke last looked She was the oldest, with a slightly flat nose, and always felt a strong nasal voice when speaking, "Come on, listen to me...we will be like this tomorrow..."

Situ Meng turned over on the bed, suddenly felt his nose itchy, sneezed several times, rubbed his nose and muttered: "Tsk, who is speaking ill of me behind my back? Don't be caught by me, or I will definitely Beat him up!"

After the incident of the cook and the poppy field, the entire villa felt that it had entered a stable period. The original servant contracts of the Lin family had all expired. Situ Meng decisively resigned them and replaced them with a new batch of servants.These servants are all young, the oldest is only 15 years old, and the youngest is about the same age as Luo Wu. They are all new to becoming servants, and they will learn how to be a qualified servant under Luo Wu's teaching in the future.

Because of their young age, Situ Meng gave them good employment contracts and benefits. These children have their own difficulties in their families. They are obviously at the age when they should go to school to learn knowledge, but for various reasons, their families cannot afford to go to school. Fees, they have to bear the responsibility of taking care of the family at a young age.

Therefore, Situ Meng added a clause in the contract, as long as he is free and there is nothing to do in the mansion, he will teach these young people to practice calligraphy.

Luo Wu is Situ Meng's personal servant and also his book boy, so Luo Wu's cultural foundation is still good. Sometimes when Situ Meng is indulging in making fire mechanism gadgets, Luo Wu will replace him and teach these few Teenagers practice calligraphy.

Now that they have learned the characters in the Three Character Classic, Situ Meng thought about it and decided to teach them the names of hundreds of families first.Depth of Field lay on the window, watching them in class boredly, and yawned today's No.18 in boredom. He just wanted to ask Situ Meng to go out to play, but the other party said that he hadn't taught the servants of the Lin family for a long time. Today's class It must be done and cannot be neglected.Jing Shen had no choice but to wait for them to finish class, and then asked Situ Meng to accompany him to catch crickets.

Spring has come, people say "spring sleep without awakening", Jing Shen listened to Situ Meng's lecture, those words seemed to turn into neat calligraphy, flying out of Situ Meng's mouth, floating in front of him, circling around his body Turn your head, turn, turn...

"...was up...young master...was up...Situ...gone..."

Depth of Field finally opened his eyes, in front of him was one of his bodyguards, usually hiding in the dark, only when he was left alone, the bodyguards would appear.He yawned, rubbed his eyes with his hands, and finally regained consciousness, only to realize that everyone in the room had left.

The young guard seemed to know what he wanted to ask, and before he could open his mouth, he explained: "Just now Luo Wu came in and said a few words to Mr. Situ. Master Situ went over to have a look."

Depth of Field nodded, let the guard lead the way, and followed the guard to several farmlands in use in the manor.

These days, he walked directly from the gate of the manor to Lin's mansion, so he didn't pass by here, and he didn't know what happened here. Looking at it now, many crops in the field have been gnawed, but this is not the worst The most distressing thing is that almost all the roots of the crops have been gnawed clean. If you dig a hole in the ground, mice will be dug out of the hole.

"Originally, we didn't want to bother you, Young Master. After all, you just rented the land to us. We are responsible for what we plant and the harvest... But now you have also seen that the field is full of mice. And not only one household is like this, but the entire manor's field is like this... If this continues, it will be impossible for us to grow the plants, let alone the harvest!"

The other tenant farmers nodded one after another. Not to mention Situ Meng, even an outsider like Jing Shen who doesn't understand agriculture can clearly see that the farmland of the manor is full of densely packed small holes, and these small holes are the homes of mice.As soon as the farmers went down with their hoes, all they dug out were mice. Even the depth of field was disgustingly disgusting.

Situ Meng reassured them and said, "You are all tenants of Chengning Villa and the most important asset of the estate. I will definitely find a solution to this matter and find out what caused it." He came to The time of the manor is not too short. The farmland of the manor has been fine for several months, why suddenly it became a nest of mice?He wouldn't believe it if he said that no one was behind the incident!

Jing Shen followed Situ Meng, saw Situ Meng went to the stables to lead a horse out, and quickly jumped on the horse's back.Situ Meng was taken aback by him, and when he saw who was coming, he sighed and said, "Didn't you fall asleep in the Lin Mansion? I'm going out to do business, I can't play with you today, you go home first..."

"Are you going to find a way to eradicate rats? What are you going to do? Get some cats back? Or bring back snakes?"

"Let's see later... No, how do you know? Were you there just now?"

"I'm here," said Jing Shen, "this is the first time I've seen so many mice... Hiss, it's so disgusting!"

Situ Meng couldn't help it, so he had to lead the horse away, "It's impossible for there to be so many rats in the manor for no reason. Someone must be able to let the rats in... The cook and his son returned the money and ingredients and moved out." He left and moved to Yangzhou. It is said that now his son also goes out to buy goods for others and earns a lot of money. It is impossible to stab us back; They are gone; as for the other tenants, there is no reason...could it be those scattered farmers?"
