The Red House starts from Liaodong

Chapter 13 Proud
Tang Qing'an laughed when he heard Liu Chengmin's question.

The output of dozens of stones per mu is indeed a fantasy in the Ming Dynasty or this time and space, and no one believes it.

In history, Chen Zhenlong brought back sweet potatoes and repeatedly asked to see the prefect of Fujian, but he was still rejected after exhausting his contacts.

Sweet potatoes are drought-resistant and easy to live. They can be eaten both raw and cooked. They have six benefits and eight benefits, and their merits are the same as that of five grains. Even before the modernization of later generations, sweet potatoes have always been the staple food of farmers.

Especially in drought years, it has become a lifesaver for farmers.

Of course, the Spaniards will not be short-sighted about such a sharp weapon, so they are very strictly guarded, and it has not been spread in Luzon for decades.

Sweet potatoes have been grown in the Americas for thousands of years, and after countless generations of cultivation, they have become perfect. They have been planted by the Spaniards in Luzon for decades, and they are very mature.

It was not until the late Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty that the businessman Chen Zhenlong risked his life and twisted the potato vines into the water-absorbing rope on the ship, and successfully brought them back to China.

The most powerful thing about sweet potatoes is that they do not compete with the staple food for land.

But with so many benefits, it's a pity that Chen Zhenlong is a soft-spoken person, and the sweet potato yield he introduced is too bizarre to be believed, so he can only grow it in his own yard.

And because only a few potato vines were brought back.When it was planted, it hadn't spread to Fujian yet, the Ming Dynasty had already perished, and finally it was cheaper than the Qing Dynasty.

As for corn.

Before crossing, where was the land of corn?Isn't it Liaodong? The latitude is the golden belt for planting corn.

This is the advantage brought by the information of the times, and this is his potential.

A few letters.

One was sent to the younger brothers to report their safety, one was sent to the young master of the Xue family, one was sent to the second master of the Xue family, and one was sent to Leng Zixing.

Xue Pan was calling friends in Jinling, and he had long forgotten about Tang Qing'an. His servants told him that Tang Qing'an had sent him a letter, and he was going out with a friend, but he quickly forgot about it.

The second master, Xue Yan, received Tang Qing'an's letter. In the letter, he expressed his gratitude to the Xue family for their kindness over the years, and told them that they had become the hereditary hundred households of Donghai Castle.

Seeing the letter, Tang Qing'an said that in Ningguo Mansion, Master Jia Zhen valued him very much, and his job as a hundred households was still in the hands of Master Wang of the Wang family.

When the guys learned that Tang Qing'an had become a hundred households, he was already quite a military officer in their eyes, and envied him for having a powerful uncle.

Xue Yan invited Tang Zhanwang and Tang Chengzhi two brothers, showing gentle smiles.

"Have you received a letter from your elder brother?"

"Master, we have read the letter from the elder brother. In the letter, the elder brother told us to work hard, not to be lazy, and to remember the kindness of the Xue family in our hearts."

Tang Zhanwang came forward and replied, his words were clear and clear, with a calm expression on his face, Xue Yan felt his brother's demeanor in him.

"how old are you?"

"16 years old."

"From tomorrow onwards, I will work on the counter and let the shopkeeper take you personally."

Tang Zhanwang didn't expect to be promoted suddenly, so he was overjoyed and quickly thanked him.Xue Yan said with a smile, "Write a letter to your elder brother later, let him do his job well in Liaodong, and don't need to worry about family affairs."

Tang Zhanwang and Tang Chengzhi happily agreed, and went back to write letters at night.

At the same time, Leng Zixing also received a letter from Tang Qingan, and he was happy for him. The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step, and he is already walking on the road.

However, the few things that were entrusted to him in the letter left him at a loss. While he was thinking about it, a servant ran in in panic.

"Grandpa Yingtianfu of Jinling sent someone to see him."

Leng Zixing was dumbfounded. Did someone sue him and want to sue him?

Coming out of the back room, he quickly apologized to the tolerance, and asked Mr. Ying Tianfu why he was looking for him, and what was wrong with him.

The messenger yelled, "There is no lawsuit, it's just that the grandfather said he wants to see you, so hurry up and follow me."

Before Leng Zixing could say anything more, a group of people came up to push and hug him. Leng Zixing had no choice but to explain to his panicked family members, and followed the messengers to leave the house, feeling uneasy along the way.

In a trance, he followed people into the mansion, and then went through the small door to the back hall, and saw a familiar face, smiling and looking at him without saying a word.

"Brother..." Leng Zixing was about to speak, when he saw Jia Yucun's official uniform, he immediately came to his senses, knelt down and kowtowed with a smile on his face.

"The master is promoted now? Congratulations to the master and congratulations to the master."

Jia Yucun personally stepped forward to help Leng Zixing up, and said with a smile, "It wasn't your previous advice, how could I make up for the lack so easily, I have to thank you."

Pulling Leng Zixing to sit down, he was very enthusiastic.

It is said that the four great masters of Jinling are so good. Only after going to Shenjing this time, did Jia Yucun really know how powerful they are!
A young man of the Xue family, but his uncle is the head of the Jia family, and he has become a hereditary hundred households as soon as he is white.

Only those who are familiar with the operation of the government know the difficulties.

Just a change of household registration requires going through several ministries, from civilian to military officer, with no success, not only through the Ministry of War, but also through the local chief political envoy to accept it.

Even if he is reinstated and promoted to the magistrate of Yingtian Mansion, it is impossible to do such a thing, and he dare not even think about it.

In just two months, I not only passed the exam easily, but also became eligible for reinstatement and filled up the actual vacancies. It is still a place like Yingtianfu.

It's easy and smooth to say, and it seems to be a matter of course, but it's only when it's done that it becomes difficult.

And all of this seemed to be a trivial matter in Jia Wang's family, so Jia Yucun treated Leng Zixing not only did not feel cold because of the change of status, but was even more enthusiastic.

Just because he is the son-in-law of the housekeeper of Jia's house, and because he is closely related to the four major families in Jinling, Jia Yucun has a deeper understanding of Leng Zixing.

After entertaining Leng Zixing, he specially arranged a sedan chair to take him back. Leng Zixing sat on the sedan chair in a trance, restless, but at the same time couldn't help but feel complacent.

Invitations are indispensable for a new official to take office, and Jia Yucun can't handle all kinds of banquets, so he can only politely shirk a few, or send a housekeeper to explain.

After finally being free, Mr. Xue's family got into a life lawsuit.

He was thinking about how to deal with it, when a member of the yamen boldly stepped forward to intercede for the Xue family, it turned out to be an acquaintance of his before he made a fortune, and he never recognized him.

Can he do favors?Does it match?

Jia Yucun dealt with him casually, settled the Xue family's lawsuit, and wrote letters to Jia Zheng and Wang Ziteng, and soon some acquaintances came to the door.

This time it was none other than Zhang Rugui, his former colleague who was dismissed together.

Zhang Rugui was well-known, and he was a colleague the day before yesterday. The two had a deep friendship, and Jia Yucun invited him in very politely.

"Brother, brother, I never expected you to make up for the lack so quickly, beyond all of our expectations." Zhang Rugui invited tea and said with emotion.

Jia Yucun smiled and said nothing.

After all, it was his chance to travel to Yangzhou, and he happened to become the teacher of the Lin family, so he got involved with the four major families.

He knew why Zhang Rugui was looking for him.

The other party has not made up for the real shortage so far, so he came to him through the door.

Jia Yucun looked at Zhang Rugui who was a little flustered, and couldn't help but feel emotional.

Wanting to make up for the lack is like going to heaven.

Outside the yamen of the Ministry of Officials, there are countless people queuing up, how many people look forward to the stars and the moon, let alone a prosperous place like Yingtianfu, it is hard to find a seat in even a low-level place.

Waiting for more than ten years, even until the last match, there are still many people.
