Nongmen Space: Farming lady is not easy to mess with

Chapter 375
Whispering in the middle of the night.

Jing Yunyan turned his head and glanced at Kelou, his eyes glanced towards the window intentionally or unintentionally.

"Tongtong, rest when you're sleepy."

"Do you think the posture on the other side can make people sleep without distraction? It's not too late to read these letters." Shu Yingtong looked indifferent, stretched out his hand and pinched the back of his neck, his cold face was full of tiredness.

The sound insulation of the adobe room is extremely poor, and the yard is not big. She has already enjoyed the auditory feast for half the night.

This communication.
Really thorough.

Jing Yunyan lowered her eyes and smiled, "I'll just cover your ears for you." After speaking, she got up and brought a basin over to let her wash her hands.

The fire was extinguished, and the room was completely dark.

"Ah Yan, the matter here is almost settled, let the officials slowly implement other matters, let's go back early."

"Well, I'll arrange it, go to sleep."

Jing Yunyan kissed her on the lips and sighed faintly.

Saving the people is like putting out a fire. She has been busy day and night for the past few days, and she has suffered a lot from staying with him.

When I was busy, I didn't have the mind to think about anything else, but now I can finally catch my breath.

This breath is not evenly breathed, and those warm panting on the other side somewhat make people feel a little bit fancy.

Being able to hug but not eat is the most tragic thing in the world.

A small hand gently scratched his waist.

"Ah Yan, there should be nothing important tomorrow."

In the dark, he evoked an intriguing smile, grabbed her hand and kissed her.

"Tongtong, have you finally remembered that your poor husband has been fasting for half a month?"

The next morning.

Yu Linglong circled the table with the bowls in her arms, looked at each one with great interest, and shook her head regretfully.

"Tsk tsk, it looks like it was very lively last night. How did I fall asleep? I missed it."

She took a sip and stood in front of Zhou Chi, "My mother and sister-in-law are still in the room, and my senior sister is alive and kicking. How about I make you some medicine to nourish your kidneys?"

"Get out." Zhou Chi glanced at her coldly, his eyes sharpened, and he swept towards Jing Yunyan and Wen Yanqin like a sharp sword.

Two well-dressed beasts!
He didn't do anything with people, who knows how he survived last night.

I wanted to join in the fun, but his little hedgehog curled up in his arms, moaning and screaming in pain.

He didn't join in the fun because of the little hedgehog's menstruation.
Wen Yanqin raised his head and took a tentative look at Jing Yunyan, then lowered his head and continued drinking.

So calm and relaxed, you are worthy of being a dragon and phoenix among people
Shameless?

He was suddenly glad that there was a distance between this house and the villagers, otherwise the villagers who saw him kneeling yesterday would talk about him as a condiment at home, it would be a headache to think about it.

Yu Linglong's biggest advantage is that she can be coaxed when she should. Seeing Zhou Chi's dark face and the look of wanting to kill someone, she honestly grabbed a purslane, took a bowl and sat on the threshold of the main room to continue eating breakfast.

The batter in the bowl is made of noodles.

In the beginning, Yu Linglong really lived a life without leaving her for three meals.With the arrival of medicinal materials and food from Qinglan Mountain Villa, her staple food changed.

When I first came here, I didn't even bother to take care of the food, so I dealt with it hastily.Later, when the plague situation subsided, I had time to go to the mountains to collect herbs, and hunt a few wild game to replenish oil and water.

Some herbs that can be cooked have become dishes on the villagers' table.

Many doctors rushed in at once, and the villagers also learned a lot of knowledge about medicinal materials during the interval of assistance. This is tantamount to promoting teaching in the absence of teacher or family inheritance.

Yuchuan has many mountains and rich vegetation, and the villagers have learned to collect herbs, which is an extra income for them.

While breakfast was still being eaten, Wen Yanqin's captain was already waiting outside with his horse.

The governor of a province, a high-ranking official with a generous salary, is also a civil servant.Traveling naturally requires the protection of personal soldiers, but Wen Yanqin stayed with Mu Chenying to negotiate official affairs when he entered the village.

After breakfast, Jing Yunyan invited Wen Yanqin to have a secret talk.

"Most of the people in Yuchuan toil in the fields every day and still can't eat enough. If the people are weak, the country is weak. Therefore, the surrounding small countries dare to covet the land and cities of Dali. Yuchuan is too poor."

Jing Yunyan lowered his eyes, and thought of Shu Yingtong's disgusting comment on Da Li: If you are poor, you will be beaten.

Wen Yanqin had spent so many years in the capital's official circles, and he never listened to the literal meaning of what people said.

He smiled knowingly, relaxed his body and leaned back slightly, "On the way to take office, Wen heard that Zhaoning Mansion in Jingnan was building bridges and paving roads, but the court only needed to allocate half of the funds."

The tone of voice is slightly joking, which is a relaxed gesture that a person who trusts extremely dares to make.

Ling Ruixuan was trapped in a fief when he was a prince, and Wen Yanqin could not leave the capital at will.

Whenever there is a major event, the person who goes to see Wen Yanqin is no longer a dead man.

Therefore, Jing Yunyan had met him several times.

Jing Yunyan shook his finger, "Yuchuan is different, it can only be allocated by the imperial court. Of course, if the people become rich, the burden on the imperial court will be reduced."

Candles in Dali are only used for lighting in dignitaries or wealthy merchants, and the second use is for sacrifices.

Ordinary people usually use oil lamps at night in their homes. If they can't even light an oil lamp, then light a pine branch or a piece of bamboo.

According to the geographical advantages of Yuchuan proposed by Shu Yingtong, it is feasible for the common people to develop local industries and become rich.

Wen Yanqin was greatly shocked, with mixed emotions, looked at Jing Yunyan, and then spit out a sentence: "Wen is a mediocre person, I don't know how to make the people in Yuchuan rich, please tell Mr. Jing."

These words were quite pleading, and it was low to the dust to put oneself in the position of a subordinate to ask the superior for instructions from the mouth of the chief official of the frontier.

When he was studying, he also had a passionate passion for the well-being of the people.

It's just that time doesn't give him, he can only fumble around in the officialdom with the appearance he despises the most.

Only by constantly climbing can he have the right to speak, but he can't steal the limelight and expose himself. After all, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry is the person he wants to monitor.

Now that the situation is clear, he took up the post of governor of Yuchuan, and seeing the suffering of the people under his command, the blood of his youth was rekindled.

He was tired of the shady and dirty things of the imperial court in Beijing, and he preferred to see the simple and honest smiling faces of ordinary people rather than being flattered by his colleagues.

Jing Yunyan opened the drawer, took out a small wooden box, and pushed it in front of him, "This is a good thing that can make the people of Yuchuan rich."

Wen Yanqin opened the wooden box, and inside there was a candle with a yellowish color and as warm as jade, and a branch wrapped in white floc.

He wondered what a candle and a diseased twig meant.

Jing Yunyan laughed softly, and explained in a calm manner: "The candles that are paid tribute to the palace from the local area are made of beeswax, while the candles used in the local area are made of cypress oil. The process is complicated and the raw materials are not easy to obtain. The candles in the box It was made by my wife and I peeled some in the mountains."

Wen Yanqin held up the branch and looked it over carefully, frowning slightly, "Wen still doesn't understand. This tree is infested by insects to obtain raw materials for making wax, which is not much easier than cypress oil."

Now this season is the first step in making candles. The trunk of the cypress tree is cut off and collected after the resin oozes out and condenses.

Trees don't grow in a day, and are destined not to get resin in large quantities.

And it seems that it is not very easy to find sick trees to make wax.

"No, it can be said to be very easy. White wattle trees are very easy to grow in Yuchuan, and they grow fast. Only three-year-old white wattle trees can start to domesticate wax scale insects, wrap insects in spring, and pick wax in early autumn."

"The male insects produce wax, so the white wattle tree must take turns to breed the wax scale insects. It is raised for a year and rested for a year. The tree also needs to rest and grow."

Jing Yunyan only gave a rough idea, but Wen Yanqin listened carefully, which reminded him of another kind of insect, the silkworm.

It is also a kind of insect that is artificially bred.

But this is different from silkworms, wax scale insects do not need artificial feeding, as long as they are kept on trees.

"Wonderful, wonderful! A tree infested with insects is actually a treasure!" Wen Yanqin clapped his palms and laughed, "Planting trees to raise insects is very promising!"

"Then let's talk about the tree." Jing Yunyan unfolded a map of Yuchuan, counting with his fingers.

"It is impossible for the common people to plant trees in front of and behind the houses, and it is impossible to distribute these mountains and forests to the common people. Therefore, the imperial court can rent the hills to the common people."

It is impossible to divide the land.

Those are the lands of the imperial court and the squires, which are divided among the common people, which is tantamount to open rebellion.

He took out a booklet, "Wenfutai is busy with business, so many details will not be finished in a short while. This is the essentials of ash worm breeding written by my wife a few days ago. Take it back and let people read it carefully, and promote it to the common people in the future."

"Since it is an industry, there must be an industrial chain. There is no need for everyone to plant trees and raise wax scale insects to make candles. To subdivide the industry, people only need to specialize in the same thing."

"Planting trees, collecting insect seeds, raising insects, making wax, and some corresponding downstream peripheral industries. In this way, people can earn money no matter whether they have land or not."

Jing Yunyan's words were clear and comprehensive, and it could be said that he fed Wen Yanqin's food.

Having lived here for so long, I also have feelings for the villagers here.

From the beginning of self-sweeping, the villagers united to help each other.

There were even some villagers who took the initiative to follow the disciples of Huichuntang to other places to treat the people after they recovered, and helped each other deliver carts of medicinal materials.

This is a hard job, and the men have no hesitation, only saying that those who have been tortured by the plague know the value of the free clinic, and the doctors should not be tired.

They have no other skills, and they can still do physical work.

A large number of gowns and tents are needed in the epidemic area, and women and children are not idle, cutting hemp to make linen, rushing day and night to make gowns and hand them over to the free clinic team.

Originally, they were just some small non-governmental organizations. After a large number of people joined spontaneously, many unknown and unnamed civil righteous men appeared throughout the Southwest.

This moved Wen Yanqin to tears. He didn't like the capital city, but he loved the land and people of Yuchuan deeply.

He put down the booklet, got up and straightened the folds of his robe, raised the corners of the robe, knelt down, and kowtowed.

"Governor Wen Yanqin of Yuchuan expresses his gratitude to the young master for his kindness on behalf of the people of Yuchuan!"

Jing Yunyan was sitting behind the table, and it was too late to get up to stop him, and he felt a little uncomfortable after receiving this obeisance.

It's really against the rules for a second rank official to kneel down to him who has no official position.

But what they said is reasonable and reasonable, and they can't find anything wrong with worshiping on behalf of the common people.

"Tsk, alas, it's okay, it's okay, get up, get up."

He really felt ashamed for receiving this worship, and most of these credits belonged to Tongtong.

If he knew those things, he would have implemented them a long time ago, so there is no need to wait until today.
Fortunately, Wen Yanqin didn't know that the high-quality sorghum seeds and wheat seeds that Southwest was about to distribute were provided by Tongtong alone.
Otherwise he has to build a temple for her
