God-level Consort of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 163 Farmer

On the second day, Sikong Mansion sent someone to deliver 2000 taels of silver and the title deed of 500 mu of land to the furniture factory.

So far, Du He has owned more than 500 mu of contiguous land beside the Bahe River, and it is all his territory as far as the eye can see.

Du He gradually had a plan in his mind, but the territory was too large, and it was completely impossible to plan for a while.

As for the peace talks between Du He and Changsun Wuji, the Changsun family deliberately suppressed it, so only a few words were heard in Chang'an City.

On this day, Du He, Qin Huaiyu, and Cheng Chumo ate hot pot by the river.

At the end of the meal, Cheng Chu said silently, "Brother, I don't understand something. The Cuiwei Building incident was full of turmoil that day, and the final result was that the Changsun's family paid for it. Could it be that we just let the bastard Changsun Chong go like this?" egg?"

Even Qin Huaiyu was very puzzled.

Du He shook his head: "The purpose of fighting is not for fighting, but for resources. This is an eternal truth. Now, my goal has been achieved. As for Chang Sun Chong, he is already a dead man in my heart. It's just a matter of time." It's just a problem, why bother with a dead man."

Qin Huaiyu said with emotion: "Du He, although you are the youngest among us, your foresight is beyond my reach. Come, I respect you."

"Brother, I will hang out with you from now on." Cheng Chumo said excitedly.

The few people drank until the sky was dark, and they were lonely and drunk.

Early the next morning, when the sun was high, Du He got up from the bed.

When he walked out of the room, he found that Old Fu was walking back and forth in the yard.

He asked curiously, "Old Fu, why are you dangling around?"

Old Fu said: "Master, I have nothing to do these few days!"

Then, the old Fu came over and complained: "Now the furniture factory has Princess Changle and Zhang Du watching, Datang Study has Yang Hao and Wang Erniu, and Princess Runan will help you look at the accounts. The old bone becomes a useless person."

Seeing Old Fu's downcast look, Du He couldn't help laughing.

This old guy just can't sit still.

He said: "Who said you have nothing to do, now there is a big thing waiting for you to do."

"Oh, young master, you think of me. I thought you thought you were useless and didn't plan to use me anymore!" Old Fu was as happy as a child, and then hurriedly asked what was going on.

Du He ordered: "Go to Chang'an City immediately and recruit some farmers. If you want to be able to farm, the more experienced you are, the better."

"Master, did I hear you right? We are looking for farmers, so is it possible that we want to farm?"

"That's right, farming, growing potatoes. In the near future, your young master, I will be the most awesome farmer in the entire Tang Dynasty, hehe..." Du He said.

Du He had carefully inspected the bag of potatoes that he won by lottery, and they were all good, but he didn't want to touch any of them, he just wanted to plant them quickly and leave the seeds. If he used them to eat fried potatoes, it would be a waste of money.

As soon as the old Fu heard it, he didn't care about 21, so he went to Chang'an City himself.

Nowadays, what Chang'an City lacks most is farmers. These people are all victims of famine in Shandong, Henan and other places. Hearing that farming can get 10 Wen a day as wages, I can't wait to all come to the furniture factory.

In the end, Lao Fu selected five young and strong ones and brought them to the furniture factory.

Du He asked Zhang Jian to inquire secretly, and signed the contract with everyone after confirming that these people were innocent.

In the afternoon of the same day, Du He personally led these people to clear a piece of land of about half an acre by the river bank, and asked a few men to start digging the land.

The five men worked till dark, and finally turned the land out.

Du He asked everyone to carry water for irrigation.

In the early morning of the next day, the men were asked to continue digging the land. After digging it again, they asked everyone to cut trees nearby, and surrounded the half-acre of land with fences, leaving only an opening for entry and exit, and then allocated the furniture. The factory's two security guards guarded the land day and night.

On the third day, the ground was still dug and fences were built.

Du He's arrangement confused everyone.

There is nothing in the field. I searched and found nothing. Isn't this a waste of money?

Even the old Fu ran to ask Du He in doubt, but Du He only said four words: Be safe and don't be impatient.

So everyone repeated the life of digging the ground and repairing the fence.

After six full days, Du He went to the field to look it over in person, and found that the original barren land, the soil had become moist and delicate, so he nodded in satisfaction: "This is all right..."

In fact, there is not much content in growing potatoes. It only needs Du He to explain himself, and these few crops can be done very well.

In less than half a day, half a bag of potato seeds was planted.

Du He told the old Fu: "Old Fu, from today onwards, you will keep an eye on this land for me. If there is any situation, please report to me at any time. Anyone who dares to approach will be killed."

Old Fu heard from Du He that if the potatoes were planted, at least a thousand catties per mu could be produced. At that time, he was so surprised that he couldn't speak, and kept saying that it was a god.

He knew that this matter had a lot to do with it, so regardless of other people's objections, he found someone to build a simple house next to the potato field, where all the eating, drinking, and messing up were done, in order to keep abreast of the situation in the potato field.

After five days, the potatoes start to sprout.

After Du He checked it himself, he jumped up and down like a child.

What the Tang Dynasty lacked most was food. Once high-yield potatoes were added, countless lives would be saved.

……

The days seem to have calmed down, just like the waters of the Bahe River in the past few days, the waves are calm.

Everything seemed to stand still except for the hotter day by day.

May 24.

night.

There was a meteor shower.

It is said that Li Er immediately summoned Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng into the palace. The two veterans agreed that this was a sign of the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty, and they congratulated Li Er.

Li Erlong Yan Dayue.

Unexpectedly, in the middle of the night, news of water leakage suddenly came from the palace.

A fire burned the entire Imperial College.

Fortunately, no casualties were reported.

It doesn't matter if the Guozijian is destroyed, the key is that all the books in the Guozijian are destroyed.

The most important thing is that the students who will take the scientific examination this fall have no books.

Li Er was furious, and punished Kong Yingda, the son of the state, to sacrifice wine for a month behind closed doors, and fined his salary for one year.

On the morning of the second day, Li Er announced the incident in public. When asked how to deal with this incident, everyone was filled with righteous indignation and expressed that they would severely punish the officials of the Guozijian.

Li Er said with a headache: "My dear friends, what I want to solve is not just the issue of punishing officials, but I want to ask you all, how to recover the destruction of tens of thousands of books in the Guozijian?"

Everyone stopped talking.
