Chapter 501 The troubles of the rich

After the freshly fried chili is mixed with vinegar water and minced garlic, the taste changes a lot. The pure spicy taste is instantly mixed with the sour aroma, and after being tempered by the rich garlic flavor, the sharp spicy taste It becomes mild, and together with the oil and water in the belt surface, the fragrance of the belt surface is stimulated to the extreme.

Glancing at Di Renjie who was holding the bowl and staring at him intently, he said gently to Zhong, Yunchu vigorously stirred the noodles with chopsticks, then pulled up a piece of noodles, and started eating with a sigh.

The pasta made by Yun's cook is naturally impeccable, and now with the last seasoning of chili, Yunchu finally tasted the taste he dreamed of.

It may be because he hasn't eaten chili for many years, Yunchu was so hot, but he knew that the feeling of chili is not taste, but pain.

Enduring pain was nothing to him, so when the three of Di Renjie started eating noodles with the courage to try poison, Yunchu had already signaled the cook to bring him another bowl, while Naha and Li Hong who were standing by His saliva was already dripping down.

Obviously he is a titan who is famous for charging and breaking through battles, but I don't know why these people think that he is the one who cherishes his life the most.

People like chili may not be used to it, and may even find it unpalatable, but it doesn't matter, Yunchu himself likes to eat it, and he likes it very much.

The sudden appearance of this thing, Yunchu felt that it was a huge reward from the heavens.

Facts have proved that the person who trusts Yunchu the most in this world is Naha, because although this child is laughed at by the spicy food, he still works hard to eat the belt noodles with chili peppers. The benefits of chili are here, and I am going to eat another bowl.

Yun Chu seriously suspected that Zhong Dao didn't have a pain-sensing system. When Ruan Rou and Di Renjie were suffering from eating chili, he had already eaten three bowls of noodles in a row.

As for Yu Xiurong, after taking a bite with the courage to commit suicide, she refused to eat it. No matter how delicious Naha said, she just refused to eat a bite. She stated that she didn't want to lose her old life just because of a bite.

Li Hong ate it after seeing Naha eat it, and he brought into full play the spirit of a gentleman who does not stand behind a wall.

But it is obvious that he is also a person who can eat spicy food. Except for the first bite, he is very careful, and the rest is killed by wolfing down.

Zhong Dao really ate like crazy. Although he was sweating profusely from eating, the more he ate, the more enjoyable he was. The last bowl of rice was completely dyed red by the pepper, which made Yunchu very satisfied.

If you want to eat spicy noodles, you still need the old Qin people to come out and be gentle. Di Renjie and the two Shanxi old sours are not ranked.

After eating this meal, Yunchu put the remaining peppers into jars and stored them away.

If people like them want to eat it again, they have to wait until the peppers are planted in summer.

People who ate spicy noodles liked to drink water, and their gentle lips were still swollen. He kept pointing to his plump lips and told Yunchu that this was clearly a sign of poisoning, and chili was not considered food at all.

"I want to know where this thing came from." Yun Chu took a sip of tea and said kindly to Rou Rou.

Although Yunchu looked very calm when he spoke, the few people present could hear an undeniable flavor from this sentence.

"Queen, you should know. If you want to know, you have to see who the queen met after summoning you today."

This kind of reasoning is not difficult for Di Renjie.

Rou Rou looked at Li Hong and said, "Of course I have to entrust His Highness the Crown Prince with this matter."

Following Yunchu's example, Li Hong put his hands on his belly and said with dignity: "It's not difficult."

Yunchu said again: "Chili is very important to me, but when it comes to the importance and what I said, potatoes, corn, sweet potatoes, pumpkins, it's not worth mentioning."

Zhong Dao continued: "Since you are sure that this thing is not in the Tang Dynasty, but in a very distant place, and it is across the sea from the Tang Dynasty, then the chili pepper appeared, and the rest of the things will not be too far away, so Investigate the people who have been in contact with the queen recently and have a relationship with the sea, and you should be able to find some useful clues.”

Gentlely said: "Now Datang's
Sifang Pavilion is full of people all year round, I will pay attention there.”

Hearing this, Yun Chu laughed and said, "Okay, if this matter can be accomplished, I promise you will leave your name in history."

Di Renjie said, "Can't you do it well?"

Yun Chu said: "That's our fate."

In the spring of the third year of Xianqing, Wannian County and Chang'an County had obviously achieved a state of harmony between government and people.

Cultivation in spring has been carried out in an all-round and orderly manner. When the apricots bloom, it is a good time for cotton farmers to lift the straw curtains in the greenhouse to let the cotton seedlings cultivated intensively see the sun.

When the peach blossoms are in full bloom, it’s time to transplant these cotton seedlings into the fields. At that time, green cotton seedlings will appear in the fields of Wannian County, Chang’an County, and even nearby Lantiantian and Huxian County. .

Large-scale cotton planting has become the most important thing in Guanzhong in a year, and even the government has to go to the field to supervise when transplanting seedlings.

When the apricot blossoms bloom, it sometimes snows in Guanzhong, and when the peach blossoms bloom, sometimes there will be hail. All the hard work was ruined.

Therefore, the life of the peasants has always been very hard, that is, these storms have shaped the characters of the people in Guanzhong to be tough and cautious.

So at the critical moment of preparing to plant cotton seedlings, these tenacious, cautious, and cunning guys with a natural peasant style proposed to the government for the first time-add money!
The requirements are very simple, one mu of land needs to be paid an additional [-] Wen, and no cotton will be grown without the additional money.

Yun Chu really wanted to find the leader. According to the logic of dealing with this kind of thing in the past, as long as the leader is beaten up, or put in prison for a few days, this kind of thing will naturally subside.

This time it was different. With Di Renjie's ability, he couldn't find the culprit in a short time.Even if they asked the head of Lifang, the emperors couldn't get the news they wanted, and even Yun Chu's diehard loyalist among the government soldiers didn't know how this happened.

It was as if after everyone fell asleep, the concept of thirty cents suddenly appeared in everyone's mind.

And the most interesting part is that the request of thirty cents is exactly [-]% of the benefits that Wannian County and Chang'an County can get from cotton planting, weaving, selling finished products, and exchanging grain. .

The county magistrate Yunchu is very popular among the people. Of course, the premise is not to mention money, and don’t mention labor.

Wannian County has reclaimed a lot of cotton fields over the years, with an area of ​​nearly 20 mu of cotton fields. If it wants to meet the needs of the people, it will cost at least 600 million yuan.

Six thousand coins is not a big number for Wannian County, and Yunchu can take it out anytime and anywhere.7\./degree\./search\./search\.4\./[-]\./text\./learn\./network\./first\./post

But this is not a matter of [-] yuan at all. If the common people want [-] yuan at a time, Yunchu's heart is still safe, because this is probably their bottom line.

The problem is that people only need [-] Wen, which is not appropriate. This time, they gave [-] Wen, and everyone planted the cotton in the field. When the cotton needs to pick peaches, will they ask for another [-] Wen?After I gave it, would I have to pay another [-] cash when picking cotton?

As for getting back the food that had been distributed to the people, there was probably no such thing at all. If they dared to ask them for food, they would dare to beat to death the yamen servants sent by the government to collect the food.

If Yunchu didn't want to stir up a civil uprising, he couldn't do this.

When Rourou saw Yunchu, she said anxiously: "The time for planting cotton seedlings is only [-] days. If you miss it, you don't have to worry about this year's cotton harvest."

Yun Chu said: "Didn't you release the news that you won't plant cotton next year? How did you react?" Gritting her teeth softly, she said, "The common people don't believe it at all."

Yun Chu smiled and said: "It seems that their will is really firm this time, and their hearts are still so united. Have you found the mastermind behind the scenes?"

Gently shook his head and said, "Still

The instigator was investigated, but after many clues were searched to the end, it was found that they all came from some rumors.

In addition, in the past few years, the government has made a lot of money from cotton. This is an obvious fact. The cotton farmers have heard it for a long time, and they feel very uncomfortable. This is the main reason why this fire can be lit .

Like the cotton farmers say, they really want to make more money.”

Yun Chu smiled and said, "Then tell the officials, the head of the village, and the head of the workshop that this year's crop of cotton is the last crop of cotton. From next year, Wannian County and Chang'an County will no longer grow cotton. Put it on Longyou Road, and at the same time plan to open several cotton textile workshops on Longyou Road.

The reason why Wannian County and Chang'an County planted cotton in the past was entirely to reduce the salinity of the land.

Cotton has been planted continuously for four years, and the salinity on the land has almost been pulled out, so we can continue to plant wheat.”

Wen Rou frowned and said: "The problem now is that people don't believe it, and they don't work without thirty cents."

Yun Chu spread out his hands and said, "Give the money to those who want it, there will always be some in the two counties who don't want money, and those who don't want money will not give money."

Gently and anxiously said: "This is not good, they won't believe it"

Yun Chu said: "Believe it or not, it doesn't matter. Next year we really won't grow cotton. Every word I said before is true."

Looking at Yun Chu tenderly and dully, he said, "We shouldn't be angry with the common people, right?
Yun Chu shook his head and said, "It's not out of anger. To be honest, the cotton field that has been planted for four consecutive years is already too much. It's time to plant other crops in turn. I originally planned to plant beans all over Wannian County next year. After the beans are harvested, plant two crops of wheat to slow down the soil."

"Is it true that you are not angry with the people?"

"No, if you look at the changes in cotton production over the past few years, you will find that when we planted cotton, the cotton production reached its peak in the second year, and it began to fall from the third year onwards. The first year was lower than the third year, and this year's cotton production, in my estimation, would not even be as good as the first year.

Moreover, cotton pests are getting worse every year. Wannian County and Chang'an County, the two places where cotton was first grown, are no longer suitable for continuing to grow cotton.”
