Five years of county magistrate, 100 million catties of grain shocked Li Shimin

Chapter 6

Fang Yuan didn't stay long before leaving.

When leaving, I took Luxia home by the way.

She was expelled and could no longer stay in the guest house. It was not safe for a girl to go home at night.

the next day.

Gorgeous carriages stopped at the entrance of the guest house.

It was also at this time that the doors of Li Shimin, Du Ruhui and others' rooms were knocked.

"Hello distinguished guest, the carriage has been prepared, we will gather on the first floor in a quarter of an hour, please pay attention to the time."

Not long after, Li Shimin and Du Ruhui walked out of the room one after another, in very good spirits.

"Master, this guest house is truly miraculous. The bed is really soft. I slept very comfortably last night!"

Du Ruhui's words were a little excited.

The bed in the guest house is really different from the bed at home.

The plank bed at home is to put a quilt on it so that it is not so hard.

But the bed in the guest house is divided into a bed board and a mattress. The mattress is a soft piece about half a foot thick.

If it wasn't for worrying about breaking it and making it impossible to sleep well, Du Ruhui really wanted to dig up the mattress to see what was inside, so that he could get it out when he returned to Chang'an City.

"I slept soundly, too."

"The hot water pipes are also quite amazing. Hot water flows out all night. How do they do it?"

Li Shimin nodded in agreement.

After Fang Yuan left last night, the two went back to their rooms.

During the period, I went through bathing, latrine, and sleeping, which was amazing.

I thought the Ying Hotel was a black shop, but I didn't expect that the two of them had little knowledge.

"Yes, yes, the hot water pipe is amazing!"

"Looking back, let's ask Fang Yuan how those things were made."

Du Ruhui nodded repeatedly.

It's amazing that the hot water pipes have hot water in the middle of the night.

Similarly, he didn't know how the hot water pipe was made.

The two lamented that they walked from the third floor to the first floor again and again, and they had a tacit understanding without lifting the toilet.

first floor.

Threes, threes, twos and one team, there are as many as eight or nine teams.

They are all dressed in silk, and one can tell at a glance that they are either rich or expensive.

At this time, Fang Yuan walked in from the direction of the door.

"Meet Fang Xianzun!"

The on-site caravan representatives all saluted Fang Yuan.

Li Shimin and Du Ruhui were already in the crowd, and they also saluted.

"Everyone, we meet again."

"Not much gossip, I believe everyone wants to see Liangtian bidding for grain as soon as possible, please choose a carriage to go."

Fang Yuan smiled lightly.

Pointing to the carriage invitation at the door.

"Xie Fang County Venerable."

The representatives of the caravan expressed their thanks one after another.

Walk out the door and choose a carriage you like to get on.

With a smile on his face, Fang Yuan followed the crowd out of the gate and walked towards the front of the carriage team.

His exclusive carriage is the one at the front, which is much more luxurious than the others.

"County Honor, Fang County Honor."

Li Shimin and Du Ruhui came behind.

"You two, did you sleep soundly last night?"

Fang Yuan smiled unabated, and asked.

"very good."

"Fang Xianzun, how did you get the soft bed? We also want to get one back to Longxi."

Du Ruhui couldn't wait to ask.

Although he was only middle-aged, he was already seriously ill and couldn't sleep at night.

But yesterday I slept soundly!

If he could sleep on this kind of mattress in the future, he might survive for a few more years and do more for Datang.

"I only understand the theory, not the specific workmanship."

"If you like it, you can go to the South Street Market to buy it."

Fang Yuan laughed.

He didn't know exactly how the mattress was made.

He just knows the principle of soft mattresses, and then let people do it.

"Xie Fangxian, we will go buy it later."

Du Ruhui said gratefully.

It's good if it's sold, but I'm afraid it won't be sold.

"Two, please, it's getting late."

Fang Yuan pointed to the carriage beside him and said.

Coincidentally, Fang Yuan's carriage was right in front of the two of them.

"Alright."

Li Shimin wanted to ask other things.

For example, how are the hot water pipes made, and how are the flat roads under your feet built?
But it was indeed getting late, all the representatives of the caravan had already boarded the carriage, and only a few of them were still here.

The carriage moved forward.

Leave the bustling county center and enter the suburbs.

Li Shimin and Du Ruhui looked at the outside environment through the window and sighed all the way.

"Your Majesty, Wuling County is really a paradise!"

Du Ruhui sighed deeply.

He walked all the way from the bustling city center to the suburbs, looking at everything he could see.

The buildings here are full of vigor and vitality, and the faces of the people are full of happy smiles.

Different from the people I saw before.

The common people in the past were oppressed by the burden of life, because they couldn’t get enough to eat because of the disaster, they were numb and decadent, they were
"Yes."

"From this point of view, Fang Yuan is a good magistrate!"

Li Shimin also sighed deeply.

From the eyes of these people in Wuling County, he saw hope.

Hope for the future, hope for a better future, hope for a happy life.

This kind of mental state is so rare, even in Chang'an City, the common people seem to be numb.

Under the devastation of drought and locust plague, food prices soared, they could not see hope, they could not see happiness, and they could not see the future.

Half an hour later, the carriage slowly stopped.

"Ladies and gentlemen, it's time to get out of the car."

Li Shimin and Du Ruhui got out of the car.

Tents were erected at the site to keep out the sun.

Under the shed, there are more than a dozen tables and stools, and there are fruits and tea on the tables.

At the front of the shed is a large rectangular ring, Fang Yuan has already been sitting on it drinking tea at some point.

"Guests, look here, look this way."

Li Shimin and Du Ruhui felt that the voice was familiar, so they looked for the reputation.

Outside the shed, there was a pretty plain-clothed woman holding a small red flag and waving it.

The bright red color quickly attracted everyone's attention, but what attracted Li Shimin and Du Ruhui's attention was the woman in plain clothes.

Green Summer at the Guest House last night.

Wasn't she fired?
"Hello, distinguished guests, I am Luxia, and I am serving you again."

"The fields are not suitable for driving, so we will walk to visit next."

"If you have any needs and questions, you can ask me. Now please stand in two rows."

Lu Xia was smiling, with a sweet voice and clear words.

Although the nearly 30 people at the scene were a little noisy, they could all hear her voice clearly.

Everyone at the scene adjusted their positions and lined up in two lines according to Lu Xia's request.

Li Shimin pondered for a moment, then walked to the front of the line.

As the emperor, he wanted to be in the first place.

Du Ruhui naturally followed.

"Hello, distinguished guest, please step back slightly to be flush with the right side."

Lu Xia looked at Li Shimin with a smile and said.

Because Li Shimin and Du Ruhui suddenly came to the front, his team was not level enough.

"Miss Luxia, haven't you been fired?"

Li Shimin stepped back a little, looked at Lu Xia and asked.

"Yes, I was expelled from the Guest House, but I'm not working at the Guest House now."

"The county lord said that it is not terrible to make mistakes, as long as you are willing to change, he also said that I am a talent, hehe."

Lu Xia's pretty face was slightly red, and she raised her head slightly and said proudly.

She was actually very unwilling to be fired because of Li Shimin.

Now I meet Li Shimin again, and hearing him ask such a question, I can't help asking for it back.

Being able to work under the magistrate of the county is many times better than the guest house.

Li Shimin didn't speak, he felt something stuck in his throat, he couldn't go up or down, it was quite uncomfortable.

"Okay, distinguished guests follow me and set off."

"If you can't see mine, please follow the direction of my red flag, please don't get lost."

Lu Xia smiled even wider, waving the little red flag in her hand.

She turned around and walked towards the field, where there was a large area of ​​yellow and orange, endless at a glance.

The distance is a bit far, and the seeds cannot be seen clearly with the naked eye. We only know that they are rice, wheat and millet. You need to get close to see them clearly.
