Nongmen Space: Farming lady is not easy to mess with

Chapter 33 I Can't Do It
An Xingzhou sat upright, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, he quietly looked at Shu Yingtong who was sitting opposite him.

After taking a closer look, she found that she had a clear and beautiful complexion, sitting there calmly, she looked only sixteen or seventeen years old, and she was full of elegance and arrogance.

The girl hadn't opened her mouth before, so she didn't pay much attention to it. I didn't expect that she was the one who talked at the door this time.

Huanshan Village is under his rule, so he knows whether there are any villagers.

Guessing that she is probably also serving King Yi, she does not know what purpose she has come here this time.

"Cooperation?"

"It's hard to kill the hungry people, isn't it?" Shu Yingtong asked without answering, straight to the point.

An Xingzhou's smile froze, his expression was gloomy, and he looked down at his hand caressing the side of the rough porcelain bowl.

After thinking for a long time, I stood up and sighed, pointing in the direction of the front office and said with deep pain: "I serve one master, so I won't hide it from the two of you. It's ridiculous that I claim to be well-versed in poetry and books, but I don't know how to be the parent official of this county. The former Mazhi County is too deceitful!"

He came all the way to take office, and his ambitions were drowned by the tears of the dilapidated government offices and hungry people.

Every day when I open my eyes, I look at the spiders falling from the beams of the house.As soon as he left the county office, pairs of pleading eyes stuck to his body.

What makes him most powerless is that there is not a single grain of rice in the county government granary.Mentioned the county magistrate to ask, the old magistrate whose official uniform was patched was carried by his family.

As soon as he fell to the ground, he knelt tremblingly on the ground and burst into tears, "Your Excellency, you must decide for me... Then Mazhi County emptied the granary overnight three days ago, and the officials couldn't stop it..."

Speaking of this, An Xingzhou gave a wry smile, "Previously, the gate of the county government gave out porridge every day, and there was no food in the warehouse when I took office. The magistrate county and the magistrate are under the crown prince's command, and my booklet can't be handed over to the holy majesty at all. .”

Jing Yunyan took a sip of the water in the bowl slowly, "You don't know yet, Ma Shaoqing's family was hacked to death by bandits on the way to transfer~ As for Zhang Guanghe, he is just a grasshopper after autumn."

"Really?" An Xingzhou was excited.

"Of course." Jing Yunyan said that the old god was there.

Otherwise, what is he busy with, isn't it just to clean up these moths and slowly save a fortune for a certain prodigal prince?
"By the way, how did you solve the problem of the relief food being evacuated?"

An Xingzhou coughed in embarrassment, "You two must have seen the situation of the shops on the street. It was I who came to visit with the invitation card and asked them to donate rice to maintain the porridge. Now..."

These merchants were frightened by his visits every three days, and they would rather close their doors than do business.

The porridge can't go on.

"I have a way to properly deal with these hungry people." Shu Yingtong said lightly.

"Appreciate further details!"

An Xingzhou was so excited that he unconsciously leaned forward slightly, looking at Shu Yingtong across a square table, with hope in his eyes.

Jing Yunyan rested his chin and waited for the next sentence. He didn't answer the question before, but he wanted to hear what tricks she had.

Shu Yingtong didn't answer immediately, instead, she dipped her fingertips in water and drew lines on the old desktop to compose the picture.

A hint of interest twitched at the corner of Jing Yunyan's mouth, drawing a map freehand, what else can she not know?

At first, he didn't understand, but An Xingzhou with a dazed face followed the mountains, rivers and villages to be accurately outlined by simple lines, his eyes widened.

Isn't this Yuan County?

After finishing the last stroke, Shu Yingtong drew a circle around Huanshan Village with his index finger, "Master An, what do you think of this land?"

"I heard from the county magistrate that this place will be flooded in the rainy season, so no one lives there, and it is a wilderness. The imperial court designated this land as a land for the benefit of the people, and no one is willing to go there."

"What if we change this piece of land into fertile land?" Shu Yingtong raised his head and looked at him firmly.

An Xingzhou was stunned, then shook his head, "It's not that no one has tried it, and the result is twice the result with half the effort, and the gain outweighs the loss."

"The root lies in this river." Shu Yingtong dipped in the water and added a few strokes in the downstream, "Broaden the middle and lower reaches of the river, dig ditches and dig canals, and the water will surround the farmland. Blocking, it is better to dredge."

After finishing talking, he added another line downstream, turned his head and looked into Jing Yunyan's eyes, "Build another river channel to divert the water to the Tujiang branch. He can't do it, you can."

Jing Yunyan tapped his cheeks with his fingers on his chin, and looked at her with a bright smile, "Do you know that we are willing to do things that cost people and money?"

A water mark was drawn straight to the north, and a sky character was written at the end, "Live and work in peace and contentment, and have surplus food at home. As common people, we only want these two things."

Jing Yunyan's eyes darkened and flashed a cold light, staring at Shu Yingtong's calm and composed eyes, after a while, the tails of his eyes raised and his long eyelashes fluttered, shyly, "Oh, you know what people do so well~"

Oh, what a winner wins the world!

Foresight, careful thinking, quick thinking, and decisiveness in dealing with things.

Thanks to the previous county magistrate leaving, otherwise the East Palace would have picked up a good talent, it would be a big headache to think about it.

This woman is really getting more and more unpredictable.

It should also be that the East Palace is exhausted, and the current Yuan County is in Wen Yuan's pocket...

An Xingzhou on the side seemed to be struck by lightning, and looked at Jing Yunyan with a complicated expression like a shy little daughter-in-law moving the stool towards Shu Yingtong bit by bit.

How can a man do such a thing!

Feeling ripped apart...

"Uh... I would like to ask, what does this have to do with the hungry people?"

With a cold face, Shu Yingtong lifted her foot against the moved stool, and pushed her bowl to the river.

"Drought is also considered useful. Post notices and no longer give out porridge on a daily basis. If you want to eat, go to work. It not only solves the hidden dangers caused by the hunger people staying, but also curbs some people who pretend to be hungry people and get food without working."

The disaster situation in Yuan County has not yet reached the point of desperation. Some people have the egoistic spirit of taking advantage and not taking advantage of the bastards. There are not so many people who really need help.

Not to mention far away, let's just say that wild vegetables can be dug up from the mountains of Huanshan Village. From this, it can be seen that the new county magistrate was kidnapped and led by the nose.

An Xingzhou immediately ignited a fire in his heart, this plan is very clever!
All problems can be easily solved!

If it is true as she said, after the river has been cured, why should Yuan County not have any achievements!
"But... I can't get any rice..."

The ignited fire was extinguished by the status quo.

"Just learn from him and act like a baby to your master." Shu Yingtong raised her chin to the side.

"Ah? This...I can't do it..." An Xingzhou had a bitter face.

"I don't know whether I should say you are stupid." Shu Yingtong said coldly, "Isn't the one next to you the God of Wealth who came to your door?"

The county magistrate said he was stupid, and he also knew to find merchants to raise food.Speaking of being smart, it is easy to be led by the nose.

They are all officials, and they still act according to the way of literati. As expected, the beatings by the society are not enough.

People come to the door with King Yi's token just as a token, never thought about how powerful this token is?

"Tsk, you betrayed me so quickly. You changed your mind too quickly, right?" The tone was resentful like that of an abandoned daughter-in-law.

"Doing business requires cost." Shu Yingtong answered calmly.

"Cough..." An Xingzhou looked at Jing Yunyan in embarrassment, "That... food?"

"You know how to hit a snake with a stick. Oh, I really envy you. Someone chases you and feeds you."
