The fertile water of farming does not flow to outsiders' fields

The scholar nodded: "Well, during the day I was locked up on the mountain, I carefully considered many links. When you said that Gong Er revealed the news to the Du family, I doubted it. What he said, nine out of ten can be tricked out."

Xue Yinsong frowned: "So what if I know, I'm not afraid of others knowing."

"You are stupid, don't you always say that you are not afraid of thieves coming to steal, but you are afraid of thieves thinking about it? How long can you defend yourself like this every day? How can you not go out for the rest of your life? Besides, is this a family matter? Gong Er informed the Du family The He family is probably the one who started the kidnapping, the Li family is the one who contacted Chen Dafu, and the Chen family is the imprisoner, how much power does this have?"

Xue Yinsong frowned even deeper: "I have notified Mr. Que, and he should help to investigate."

But the little scholar shook his head: "I don't want to cause any trouble anymore, I just want to live in peace, the reason why I want to remind you is to make you sober, stop seeking skins from tigers, you cooperate with Lord Que and the others, but in the end the victim is... It's you, because of what? Because they can't afford to offend Lord Que, they can only take you under the knife, if you continue..."

"So that's it?"

The scholar looked at him pleadingly: "Can you wipe out all of them? If you can't, let's forget it. After all, when will the grievances be repaid, our power is too weak."

Xue Yinsong looked at him, and said after a while: "Well, although it wasn't my intention, if Lord Que and the others do anything, it has nothing to do with me."

"As long as you don't join in."

Xue Yinsong didn't want to stop there, but he always respected the opinions of scholars, but it really had nothing to do with Que Hongze looking for trouble.

Xiucai fell asleep and felt full of energy. Xue Yinsong was afraid that he would force himself, so he waited for more than ten days to rest assured that the rice shop in the city really couldn't delay, and it was time to go back to open the shop.

Xiucai wanted to stay in the country alone, but Xue Yinsong felt unsafe, and besides, he couldn't cook by himself, so he reluctantly followed him back to Fuchun County.

The shadow of the war has passed for more than a month, and the small town has long since returned to its former vitality. The rice shops headed by the He family are still open, but there are no people coming and going.

Counting over ten days after the autumn harvest, each family should have finished threshing and drying rice, and it should be time to harvest rice. According to his and Que Hongze's plan for the beginning of spring, they will increase the price of rice harvest this autumn, and of course they will meet each other.

Since we met last time, there has been no contact for half a month. Que Hongze looked a little haggard, but he was still in good spirits: "Collecting rice? Well, I almost forgot about it. Have you finished the autumn harvest?"

Xue Yinsong said with a smile: "Our village has harvested everything, and most of it is already threshing grain for drying, and it will be transported to the city for sale in a few days."

"Okay, it's simple. I've already thought about it. Notices will be posted at the gates of the two cities, and everyone will go to your shop to sell rice. As for the price of rice, it will be set at 15 cents a liter. What do you think?"

Xue Yinsong pondered for a moment: "Before I came here, I had a special understanding of the market. In the early years, the purchase price was around 14 Wen. It can be said that the price of 15 Wen is not low. It's just such a high price. How will you sell it in the future? "

"Don't worry, this matter is a resolution of the imperial court. The purpose is to resume rice planting near Fuchun County through acquisitions, and it will also be promoted in all rice-producing areas."

Xue Yinsong heard that it was the imperial court's decision, so he was naturally relieved: "It's fine if it's the imperial court's decision. In fact, taking our village as an example, most of the people still grow rice. After all, the price of rice is a little higher."

Que Hongze nodded: "However, rice is much more difficult to grow than wheat, especially in the later stage where the management cannot be extensive, and the yield is lower than that of wheat. Alright, I will pay you in cash first. The emperor personally took care of this matter, I hope Brother Xue also strongly supports it."

Xue Yinsong nodded naturally, and suddenly came to his senses. The decision to increase the purchase price was made by him and Que Hongze just this spring. If the emperor also meant this... Does it mean that the emperor has noticed this problem long ago?Does that mean that the emperor already knew that he would be emperor in the future?Xue Yinsong shivered and didn't dare to think deeply, so he immediately lowered his head and drank tea.

"I heard that the emperor sent someone to come and see your cooperative, do you know about it?"

Xue Yinsong was taken aback: "No one came?"

"I got the text first, so I should be here soon. The emperor often said that the foundation of the country lies in agriculture, and he attaches great importance to your agricultural innovations. This time, he specially sent the imperial envoy here. You must not disappoint the holy family. By the way, Regarding the kidnapping of Mr. Pei, the emperor has already given his approval." Que Hongze took out an official document from his sleeve and handed it over: "The matter is handled by Brother Fu, it is very beautiful, it is written in detail, you can read it yourself."

Xue Yinsong took it over and took a look. He was slightly surprised. After returning to the city, he saw that the Du family and the Li family of the He family had opened shops. Awaiting sentencing.

"The He family is a big family after all, it is impossible to exterminate the family, and we can only catch a few scapegoats." Seeing that his expression was the same, Que Hongze explained: "But don't worry, they committed a crime when they took refuge in Prince Deyou. The emperor's taboo, now the emperor can't distinguish their origins to deal with them, besides, they can't be too hasty when they first ascended the throne, but in the future...that's for sure."

"No, no," Xue Yinsong said hastily, "I'm just surprised that, uh, the emperor would know about this."

Que Hongze smiled and said: "The emperor attaches great importance to you, but you don't want to stay in the capital, otherwise you can be a fifth-rank anyway, so don't worry, the He family is temporarily unable to separate their intentions from harming you, and they have something to gain." busy."

Xue Yinsong knew that there must be actions in the future, but he was not in his position and would not seek his own politics, and ordinary people should not participate in these complicated politics.

Sure enough, the imperial envoy came to Fuchun County in just a few days, but Xue Yinsong almost vomited when he entered the door and saw that it was Zha Jin.

Xue Yinsong welcomed him in with a smile: "I was still worried that the imperial envoy would not be easy to serve, but you can rest assured."

Zha Jin shook his head: "I'm just taking the first step to report and manage. The little prince is the imperial envoy. He's coming here this time, so it must be formal and grand."

"Why is that really?"

Zha Jin smiled: "The emperor is afraid that you will be bullied in Fuchun County, so he sent the prince to build a memorial archway for you."

There was a buzz in Xue Yinsong's mind, and suddenly he thought of the words "Zhenjie Archway", his head suddenly became dizzy, and his voice changed: "The archway?"

Zha Jin looked at him a little strangely and said: "Yes, this time the capital incident depends on you risking your life to go to Beijing, and specially give you a meritorious memorial archway to sing praises, brother Xue, what's wrong with you?"

Xue Yinsong breathed a sigh of relief: "Oh, good."

Zha Jinfu smiled again: "After this matter is finished, the prince will go back to the north. This time, he will come here to have fun. By the way, he brought more than ten people, all of whom are good at farming, and they are going to learn What about your co-op technology?"

"That's no problem. I originally wanted to promote it in the village," Xue Yinsong nodded, "It would be the best if the emperor can strongly support it."

Zha Jin laughed and said: "Your yard is big now, it's inconvenient to have no one to clean and take care of it. The prince specially called two couples for you. They are all old people from the palace. They are experienced veterans. You can use them with confidence." , don’t shy away from it.”

Xue Yinsong was naturally grateful: "Oh, I'm so sorry to make the prince spend money again."

Zha Jin smiled and said: "This is what he deserves. Didn't the lord get a book from you last time? It's so beautiful that he can't put it down every day. It's nothing to give you a few servants. If you want me to say, you should take care of it." Just scrape off some of his belongings."

The cooperative already has a mature process, and it only needs to be copied to promote it. Xue Yinsong doesn't hold back anything, even the three-dimensional breeding that is going to be launched next year.Several farming masters are experts who have been immersed in it for decades, and they understand it very well after listening to him, and they praise it repeatedly, and even wrote to the imperial court to promote it directly across the country.

The emperor was naturally overjoyed, and immediately agreed with a swipe of a pen, that these dozens of people did not need to return to Beijing to reply to the decree, and they would directly disperse to the land of rice to guide and disseminate.The first emperor had already commented on this son, saying that he possessed the qualities of an emperor, and that if he led the dynasty, it would be strong and prosperous for at least 50 years.

In the past half a year of cooperating with Que Hongze, he has not earned much money, but the cost of opening another store is barely enough, and the wish of opening a restaurant before may be realized.

He has already figured out the theme, call it a restaurant with two seasons a year, sell porridge in summer and hot pot in winter, porridge can be paired with various snacks, spring cakes made by Hu Yazi's mother, and pastries made by old man Feng in Tianba Village... There are more hot pots in winter, such as mutton soup pot and Sichuan spicy pot. It is said that the gross profit of the catering industry is 50%. This should make money faster than rice shops. The dream of becoming a rich man is probably not far away.

Little Xiucai saw him standing in the yard looking at the sky with a smirk, and leaned over to watch together: "What are you looking at?"

"our future."

The little scholar wiped his face: "I got up early in the morning and got distracted, so hurry up and cook, but in the past two days I have stomach troubles, so I still have to drink mung bean porridge."

Xue Yinsong smiled slightly: "OK."

The author has something to say: it's over.This time it's really over.
