People in Datang have been expelled from school

Chapter 471: Not Enough Manpower
Xu Hui came with the latest account book and saw Li Zheng frowning, "Chang'an Ling, this is the account book for this month."

Today's Xu Hui has changed a lot since she first came to the village. It may be that the food in the village is ready, and Xu Hui, who is only sixteen, has grown up.

It is said that the women's university has undergone eighteen changes, and now Xu Hui looks much more confident than before.

It may be because of his scholarly background.

She doesn't have that kind of charming, but she has a kind of tranquility and beauty.

"How long have you been in the village?"

"It's almost half a year."

Xu Hui cleaned up the room as she spoke.

Seeing Xu Hui put the tea cup in front of her, she is a thoughtful woman.

Li Zheng said in a low voice: "In the future, you will handle all the accounts of Jingyangfang City, and you will also handle the accounts of the workshops in the village."

Xu Hui nodded, "Here."

Handing over the ledger to her, seeing Xu Hui still standing there, Li Zheng asked, "Is there anything else?"

Holding the account book, Xu Hui whispered, "Recently, when I checked the accounts, I found that a large sum of money would enter Jingyang every month. It wasn't the money from Cheng's wine shop, nor from our Jingyang workshop."

"You don't have to worry about these, you just need to take care of the account I gave you."

"Understood." Xu Hui turned and left after a short salute.

Every month, more than [-] guan of money is unidentified, and the source of this money is not clearly written.

Only after taking over Jingyang's account book did Xu Hui know exactly how much money Li Zheng had.

Some things should not be asked too much, I am just a dowry maid of a princess.

The village was about to start construction again, and the news quickly spread throughout the village.

Now is the time for the autumn harvest, and we are rushing to build a house as soon as the grain is harvested.

Usually the village is very busy, there are so many workshops, and now there is a cotton weaving workshop.

Although the hydraulic spinning wheel is still being built, mass production of cotton cloth will definitely begin next year.

The fields that have just been harvested in autumn will be used to grow cotton.

The various workshops are extremely busy.

I have also said several times about the lack of manpower.

It's just that they don't mention it to Li Zheng. The villagers in Jingyang basically have work to do.

Now it is necessary to build a house again, and the manpower is even more stretched.

Li was about to build a house, and the villagers in the village gathered together to discuss it.

A group of men from the village got together.

The old village chief said: "Since it's something we need to do right now, we all have to figure out how to gather enough people."

"My daughter-in-law is busy in the workshop from day to night, and I have to work in the brewery. I'm really too busy, or we can work at night."

"The farm is also a whole bunch of things, and those pigs need to be looked after."

"..."

A group of villagers discussed for a long time.

Zhang Gongjin saw in his eyes that the villagers here are very hardworking and cohesive.

Sitting on the stone by the side of the road watching the scene, after a group of people dispersed, Zhang Gongjin said to the old village chief: "Is there a countermeasure?"

The old village head said: "Zheng'er leads the big guys to live such a good life, this matter must be done well, and everyone has to spare a little time to gather the manpower."

Zhang Gongjin said with a smile: "Don't worry about the old village chief, he will find a solution."

The old village said again: "You are an official, you must have a way."

Zhang Gongjin nodded and said: "This matter is not difficult to handle, and someone will come to work after a while."

Zhang Gongjin patiently explained to the old village head.

During this time, Daniel and Li Zhi did various experiments and read books every day.

Every day, I spend half a day planting trees in the village west of Jingyang.

Looking to the west of Jingyang, the formerly desolate loess is now lush and lush.

Daniu led a group of children to plant saplings together.

Li Zhi didn't care about the clothes on his body, he was covered in mud.

"Brother Big Niu, why do we plant trees?"

"The teacher said to be green."

"Green?"

"Well, the teacher said that there is a lot of loess in Chang'an, and due to excessive reclamation and felling, the water and soil erosion is very serious now. Plant some trees to fix the soil." Daniel watered the newly planted saplings and said: "And we also It needs to be planted a lot, maybe in the Longyou area. After going out of Longyou, there is a desert, where the wind and sand are very strong, and the trees can also prevent the wind and sand. After the land here is more solid, it can be used to grow some vegetables when the land is fertile. .”

Li Zhi listened to what Daniu said, and started to work with enthusiasm.

In Chang'an, as expected by many officials in the court, Cheng Chumo was released by the Jingzhao Mansion.

Jingzhaofu also transcribed many confessions, which are said to have been silently written by Cheng Chu.

Hearing the news, Qin Qiong smiled, "Cheng Yaojin's son can't read all the characters, and this repentance letter is probably written by someone else."

Niu Jinda took a sip of his drink and said, "It must be Li Zheng's trick again. It's just a way to block the mouths of the court officials, but it's really clever."

Qin Qiong said in a low voice: "It is said that Li Zheng's life is not long. It has been so long, isn't Li Zheng alive and well?"

Niu Jinda thought about it and said, "Yes, how many people in Chang'an are looking forward to Li Zheng's early death, why is Li Zheng still alive?"

Qin Qiong said with emotion: "Li Zheng is a genius doctor with excellent medical skills. Recently, according to Li Zheng's food tonic method, the old man has improved a lot without taking much decoction."

"Could it be that Li Zheng has found a way to prolong his life?"

"Ghost knows, this kid is young and self-cultivating, and he can be said to never drink alcohol or be close to women on weekdays."

Niu Jinda nodded and said, "The old man has also heard about it. It is said that Li Zheng goes to bed on time every day, washes his hands before eating, punches when he wakes up early, and will definitely take a nap at noon."

"Such a regimen should not be short-lived."

"Perhaps it's because of the fact that one's life is not long. People know their destiny. If they live to a certain age, they will cherish their lives so much if they know that they are going to die soon."

"Li Zheng is full of talent, don't say he is jealous of talents."

"How many people of the five surnames are looking forward to Li Zheng's early death, and how many powerful people plan to divide up Li Zheng's business after Li Zheng's death."

……

The two generals Qin Qiong and Niu Jinda were discussing in the mansion.

On the other side of Chang'an, the five surnames now have great differences among their families because of what happened back then.

Cui Lin, the head of the Cui family, leaned on a cane and asked the Cui family's children who came back, "Where is Li Zheng? Is he still alive?"

Several Cui family children looked troubled.

Cui Lin tapped the ground with his cane and said, "It seems that he is still alive."

"Now Li Zheng is indeed still alive, but we still don't know how Li Zheng's condition is. It is said that he has been raising horses in Jingyang and rarely appears in front of people."

"Seldom appear in front of people?"

The Cui family's children replied: "It's just that they rarely appear in front of people. We can't enter Jingyang Village to find out what's going on."
