Start of the famine: Take the crazy batch of sisters to farm and make a fortune

Chapter 365 Guide Ding Lao Wu
What should be prepared is ready, and what should be explained is explained. Early the next morning, Ding Xuewei and his group set off as scheduled.

There were two carriages, the second and fourth brother Ding sat in the first one, and Ding Xuewei and Ding fifth sat in the second one.

The two drivers and the one who took care of Ding Laosan were both transferred from the city, and they were very reserved.

The way out of Zhili, the prefectural city, went very smoothly. Half of the households in Zhili have already received sweet potato vines. Looking at the operation of the government, they are looking forward to the coming year. After leaving Zhili and entering Ning County, the situation is not so good. up.

Compared with the people in Zhili area, those in Ning County are much thinner and weaker, and their mental outlook is even worse. When it comes to the wild animals captured in Fucheng and the earthworms raised by people in the county, they are either angry or disdainful. As for sweet potatoes, They hope but also worry.

"During the flood, most of the animals moved eastward, and the subsequent trapping scale was too large, and almost no animals were able to return to their original places. The counties and towns along the river did not see many of these wild animals."

Seeing that Ding Xuewei was interested in the conversation at the next table, Ding Laoer leaned forward to explain.

Compared with the crops in the fields, the women in the family, the two brothers Ding, the second and the fourth, who have been grinding shoe soles in several counties along the river for several months, are more aware of the situation outside the prefectural city of Zhili.

"Most people have no money, and raising earthworms is useless. This sweet potato, after listening to it, puts all their hopes on it, but most people don't dare to think about it." Fourth Ding sighed.

In fact, they don't need to talk about these things, Ding Xuewei is also clear about these things, not to mention the description of the impact of the flood in the book, as far as she and Pandi saw along the way, she couldn't tolerate her naivety.

Withdrawing her gaze from the table next door, Ding Xuewei nodded without saying anything.

Ding Laoer and Ding Laosi didn't know her as much as Ding Laowu did, and the tea shed was not a place to talk. Ding Laowu didn't make a sound until they got in the car and started on their way again.

"What's your idea?"

Ding Xuewei's head was full of black lines: "..."

This is as true as she is the seven fairies in the sky!
"I want to make up my mind, but Uncle Wu doesn't know how much I can do?"

"Indeed." Ding Laowu, who was sitting lazily, looked out the window: "How can people fight against the sky!"

"...Uncle Wu, do you want to harm me?" Ding Xuewei was speechless.

When did she fight with the sky?
If she had that ability, would she be sad because of what she heard not long ago?
Since then, what she lacks most is self-knowledge, the kind of thinking that I can save the world, and everyone in the world will change because of me, but I am a big bag that travels through space, and I can avoid any danger to life, and it doesn't matter how much trouble I have. , she never had.

She didn't want Sister Pandi to get into the plot of the script too early, and she didn't want to be the one who influenced them first!
She died once, and she is not so afraid of death, but she can't bear them!

The hailstorm this time did not appear in the novel, and those people affected by her will eventually die!
What she did was to comfort her conscience!

"Uncle Wu, we are separated, but you are also in the range of my nine clans."

Some words, it's terrible if you over-explain them. In this feudal world where the emperor is the king, Ding Lao Wu's words can be interpreted as her rebellious heart.

Ding Laowu, who was leaning lazily on the window frame and staring at the trees beside the road, slapped himself on the mouth.

Looking at Ding Xuewei, there was self-blame and complaint.

He would never say such things to outsiders. This eldest niece not only made him defenseless, but also knew how to poke him in the back.

"I'm in a bad mood." Ding Xuewei accepted Ding Laowu's gaze fiercely.

She did it on purpose.

Being dragged together, Ding Laowu, who was in a bad mood, had black lines all over his head.

He understood the girl in front of him more and more.

"I can only endure the discomfort, you are a girl."

Ding Xue rolled her eyes slightly: "Discriminate against women?"

"...I'm too lazy to tell you." Ding Laowu thought he was not as good as others.

Ding Xuewei felt that it is better to be sad alone than to be sad together, so he moved to Ding Laowu's side: "Uncle Wu, you are a man, you can take the imperial examination. But how many people have entered the officialdom over the years, and how many of these people can change the people at the bottom?" living condition?"

Reading is inherently a luxury. Those who can provide for their children and grandchildren to study must have a higher level of living conditions. It is not easy for such a person to become an official and not follow the crowd, let alone think about the thoughts of the people at the bottom and be anxious about what they are anxious about!
They have never felt it, how could they have empathy!
"I once heard you and Xu Hui talk about the topic of making the country rich and the people strong. I remember you said at that time that a full treasury can support more soldiers. If the army is strong, no one will dare to commit crimes."

Moving back to her original position, she said lazily, "I can't say that your point of view is wrong, but there is something, I don't think you have thought about it."

"Which point?" Ding Laowu subconsciously asked.

Reining in his mind, he leaned forward and approached Ding Xuewei.

Ding Xuewei intentionally reminded him that he also has a thirst for knowledge, so he would not hide it.

"The life of the common people. You talk about the state treasury, the ability of the soldiers and the people to bear taxes and fees, but you never consider the issue of increasing value and increasing production. As for the inherent grain harvest, in addition to exploiting the common people, it is also compressing the treasury funds. There is no other way."

People who don't know how to farm or do business, how can they have more land, stronger purchasing power, and faster appreciation of the national treasury, and the government doesn't focus on the issue of increasing value and production, how can ordinary people do it? He can't even take care of his own belly, so how can he have extra thoughts to think about other things!

"That's why you bought sweet potato seeds!" Ding Laowu raised his eyebrows.

Do you suddenly feel that you have done something great for the common people? !
Seeing his inexplicable excitement, Ding Xue raised her eyebrows slightly.

"It's not thanks to you."

Ding Laowu was surprised.

Want to laugh but feel like I can't.

"Then what, remember to call me when you meet any rare seeds later."

He not only wants to be an official, but also wants to be an official useful to the common people at the bottom.

The field is not the cost of his study, but the goal.

Ding Xuewei just wanted to guide him. After all, Ding Laowu is no longer with Li Shi and others, and he has developed a correct sense of morality, but he did not expect that he still has such ambitions.

All of a sudden, Ding Xuewei became interested, and the people who had retreated came closer.

"Planting other people's seeds will always result in the established results. Only by cultivating new seeds can you have a say in the field of farming."

"Nurture." Ding Laowu's eyes are full of you thinking a lot.

Cultivating excellent seeds for the next season's cultivation is not only necessary for ordinary people, but also necessary for the government. Every season, both the people and the government will invest some costs to obtain the best seeds, but he feels that his eldest niece Want more than a plump, bug-free foundation.

Transplanting species from Beppu to this prefecture, looking at their yields, and choosing high-yielding crops, this is the only thing Ding Laowu can think about and feel, hybrid breeding, grafting, etc., let alone dare not think about it, it has never arisen Overthinking.

Ding Xuewei suddenly brought up the idea of ​​increasing the production of local plants. Apart from feeling that his eldest niece has a big heart, he said: "Then the old grandma taught you?"

"Everything is an old grandma, and I have only been with that old grandma for a few days!" Ding Xue was slightly annoyed, and at the same time agreed with Ding Laowu's suspicion.

Before, Ding Laowu only thought that she was big-hearted, but now, he was whimsical: "Do you think that if you catch the rice flowers a few more times, the rice ears that have grown up will grow more?"

"Where the rice seedlings are close to the local seedlings, the rice grains produced by the local seedlings have changed, and the rice seedlings also produce different rice grains on the same ear." Ding Xuewei said with a deep expression.

Ding Lao Wu, who almost rolled his eyes out of their sockets, froze.

Not to mention the current him, even a year ago, he who had never been in the field and knew nothing about grains could still hear the amount of information in this sentence.

When flowers exchange pollen, different results will be obtained.

"you····"

"I know what I'm talking about. Next year, when the peach blossoms in the village are in bloom, I will bring back some peach blossoms."
