Chapter 90

The sun was almost setting when Xing Nong returned to the village.

When she passed by Gu Yuxia's family, she happened to hear Gu Ping coming out impatiently: "Mother, will you help me borrow it? If you don't borrow it, you will ruin your granddaughter's future."

Gu Yuxia came out: "If you don't borrow it, your aunt is right, then the Yao family must be wrong, and you have given up on it. Your mother and I will never borrow it for you no matter what."

Gu Ping was so angry that she couldn't help but said: "Who would be a grandfather and grandmother to stop my granddaughter's future? If Yingying loses this good marriage, I won't come back in the future! You just want to help me Brother’s family, don’t think about me, and leave all the good things to your sons and grandchildren!”

Gu Yuxia and Song Shi were very angry when they heard the words.

What does this say?

Gu Ping walked out angrily, just in time to see Xing Nong passing by, her eyes lit up: "Xing Nong, Cousin told you, can you lend me your imperial bestowed Yu Ruyi for a while? I will return it after a while." Here you go! I haven't been in good health recently, and I want to borrow some blessings to go back to recuperate, haha."

Before Xing Nong could speak, Gu Yuxia and Song Shi hurried out.

Gu Yuxia: "Xing Nong, don't borrow it, you can't lend it to others!"

Mrs. Song nodded: "Yes, if she is sick, she can just go to see a doctor! Yu Ruyi is not a doctor, nor is it medicine. It can't cure her illness!"

Gu Ping was so angry that she couldn't help shouting: "Father, mother!"

Xing Nong nodded to Gu Yuxia and Song Shi: "Uncle, Auntie, I know that you will be beheaded if you borrow something from the imperial court. Don't worry, I won't borrow it."

Gu Yuxia nodded: "Yes, no loan!"

Then he said to his daughter: "Yu Ruyi won't borrow money no matter what. If you give up your heart, find a suitable marriage for Yingying. Don't think about it! Do you know?"

Mrs. Song nodded: "Your father is right, well, it's getting dark, it's not that you're sick, go back and lie down!"

Really, they were still working on the wasteland, and she hurriedly pulled them back like this, thinking that something big happened!
Now the big thing is not as big as land reclamation!

Gu Ping was so angry that she turned around and left. She swore that she would never come back!

How can there be such parents who don't expect their daughter to be well at all? !
After Gu Ping left, Gu Yuxia said to Xing Nong: "Girl Xing Nong, hurry up to open up wasteland, your grandma and the others are all going to open up wasteland!"

Song took a hoe and stuffed it to Xing Nong: "Yes, yes, yes, our village decided to open up the wasteland around Taohua Village and Meihua Village tonight. These places are close! We will go further tomorrow The wasteland! You also hurry to go there!"

Xing Nong took the hoe and nodded: "Okay."

After speaking, the strong old couple hurried back to open up wasteland.

That night, except for the children under ten years old, all the villagers in Taohua Village worked on land reclamation overnight.

If it hadn't been for the heavy rain in the middle of the night, no one would want to go back to sleep.

It rained heavily that night, waking up all the sleeping people, and everyone's hearts were agitated.

The rice in the field is starting to turn golden, and everyone plans to start harvesting in two days, but it rains again!
In the second half of the night, many people hardly slept and prayed at home for the rain to stop soon.

Fortunately, before dawn, the rain stopped and the sun came out.

Many people ran to the Yamen to inquire about the high-yield grain seeds without instigating them.

Li Yong just posted the notice, and he said to the people who came to the door: "Fathers and folks, the notice on high-yield grain varieties has been released, and it is here! From today onwards, everyone can bring household stickers and red deeds to the yamen to exchange for purchases." High-yielding grains..”

Li Yong read out the content of the announcement.

When the people heard that they were as angry as the villagers in Taohua Village, they asked whether it was true, and how could there be so many grains for everyone to exchange?
Li Yongdao: "The official documents of the yamen have been posted, but this has the official seal of the county magistrate, can it be fake? Everyone hurry home and get the household stickers and food to buy!"

Li Yong left these words and returned to his command.

Soon batch after batch of common people came before the official document, and some people who could read read it to those who could not. Everyone was very excited.

Within half a day, the news spread throughout Futai County.
People took household allowances and red deeds to receive high-yield grains one after another. People who had no red deeds but only white deeds went to the yamen to exchange for red deeds in order to exchange for high-yield grains.

The county magistrate was in the latrine, and when he got the news, he was so shocked that he ran out to confirm without even pulling his pants down.

Didn't the batch of high-yield grains in Funing County have been exchanged at a high price last time?
How come there are high-yield grains that can be exchanged for common people?
And according to the redemption method written in the official document, how many high-yield grains will be obtained?
Although Futai County is a small county, there are [-] to [-] mu of land, not to mention wasteland!
But the official document actually encourages land reclamation and gives away high-yield grain seeds for free?
Where did these high-yield grains come from?

He hurried to the room where Ren Zilin worked.

"My lord, is what the official document said true? Do we really have so many grains for the common people to buy? Why don't I know?"

Ren Zilin was writing the county magistrate's diary for this month, and nodded without raising his head when he heard the words: "Of course, otherwise how dare I post such an official document."

The county magistrate asked anxiously: "The county magistrate is really powerful. I don't know where the county magistrate found so many high-yield grains?"

"Of course I bought it! You came here to ask about this matter? Is this matter important to you?" Ren Zilin finally looked up at him.

The county magistrate thumped in his heart and hurriedly said: "I'm just curious how the county magistrate is so powerful?! He actually got so many high-yield grain seeds for the people of our county! Hehe, this is really great!"

Ren Zilin lowered his head: "There are a lot of great things about this official! You will know in the future, step down!"

"Yes!" The county magistrate rolled his eyes in his heart, agreed and then withdrew.

Then he couldn't help but glanced at Chu Tiankuo who was sitting and reading a book not far away. Could it be that the master lied to him last time?The county magistrate bought more than just the [-] catties of high-yield grain?
Do not!Even if it's not just the [-] catties of high-yield grains, but they have other preparations, it's impossible to have so many high-yield grains for the common people to buy!

To satisfy the grain seeds of the entire Futai County's fields, including wasteland, it would take [-] catties, right?

The imperial court can only get hundreds of thousands of catties of grain seeds from Zhao Guo, but he, a small county magistrate, can get one hundred thousand catties of high-yield grain seeds?how can that be?

He hurried out and went back to his room to write a letter.

Ren Zilin asked Chu Tiankuo: "How much grain did you replace with Prime Minister Liang for the [-] catties of fake high-yield grain in Futai County?"

"Not much, just exchange twenty catties of grain for one catty of grain seeds."

Ren Zilin calculated in his mind: "So all the grain he bought from us at a high price was used to exchange for those fake grains?"

"almost."

Ren Zilin: "... Prime Minister Liang is going to die of anger this time, right?"

"It's nothing." What's next is what matters.
