Escape from the desert

Chapter 243 A Knife Pricks His Butt, Opening His Eyes!

The 800 mu of paddy fields outside Linjia Village produced a total of [-] jin of grain, with an average yield of more than [-] jin per mu. Now the price of rice has risen to the high limit set by the government. After husking, this batch of late rice can be bought at the price of polished rice.

But Jiang Yan didn't have that much time to shell the seeds for him. From the very beginning, she planned to give this batch of late rice to Li County Magistrate as grain seeds. A large dry warehouse.

Now the price of polished rice can be bought at 22 yuan a catty. I remember that when she first came here, the first time she went to town, the price of polished rice was only [-] yuan a catty. The price of grain per catty was given to County Magistrate Li.

On this day, the sky was still cloudy, and the whole world seemed to be covered with a layer of mist. Biting cold winds blew past, making people's teeth chatter and spine chilled.

Lin Dong called fifteen strong men from the factory, and then called Lin Cong. A total of four ox carts in the village were borrowed, and his own two ox carts and a horse cart couldn't load the more than 2 yuan. There is no other way, so I have to rent a bodyguard agency in the town to escort.

This is also the first time they know about the existence of the Escort Bureau, but Yongan Town is relatively remote, and there is only one Escort Bureau in the whole town, and there are not many villains in the layout. Fortunately, they can get a lot of ox carts and carriages.

Twenty or so ox carts and horse-drawn carts dragged the neatly stacked grains on the carts and set off for Linfang County. The long team and dozens of strong men set off from Linjia Village early in the morning. People were shocked and attracted countless eyeballs along the way.

From morning to afternoon, the ox cart arrived in Linfang County safely.

County government office.

County magistrate Li stood aside bowing his knees, and the county magistrate Huang behind him was even more humble, his waist almost bent into a semicircle, and his head drooping low.

It was Shen Xingyuan who sat on the main seat of the two of them. He had a teacup in one hand and a folding fan in the other. His red lips blew the hot and smoky tea slightly, and the hazy smoke diffused instantly. His eyes were even darker.

The red lips took a sip of the tea, and the next second, the clear and pleasant male voice said without a trace of emotion: "Recently, the number of refugees inside and outside Linfang County has increased rapidly. People, open the hall every day to make porridge."

County magistrate Li nodded repeatedly. Although he didn't know the identity of the fifth master, he also knew that the other party came with the relief food this time. He was a big man in the court and must not be offended.

"Fifth Master, don't worry, the refugees in the county have settled down in the past few days, and the number has not increased. Presumably, they must have escaped from a few small villages with dry water sources."

Huang Xiancheng also hurriedly echoed: "Yes, my lord, there has been little drought and rain in the past few years. At this time of year, there will always be some refugees wandering around. When the first elementary school in winter falls, everyone will have water and share the disaster. food, they will return to their villages.”

County magistrate Li is deeply afraid of being harshly criticized. He has not had any outstanding achievements in recent years, and the areas under his jurisdiction have been plagued by disasters. The tax revenue is decreasing every year, but the number of refugees is increasing every year. If it is not for this year's savings As far as performance is concerned, let alone promotion, it may be difficult for him to keep his current position.

The three of them were discussing, when a yamen servant hurried in, "Report to your lord, Jiang Wen from Lin Family Village, Lin Dong is asking to see you."

Here they come!

County magistrate Li was overjoyed. He had received a letter from Lin Family Village a few days ago, so he naturally knew the arrival of this batch of food. He ran out of the door excitedly, then turned back suddenly, and looked at Shen Xing who was still drinking tea at the main seat with some embarrassment. Yuan.

He secretly scolded himself for losing his mind!He actually forgot about the adults from the imperial city!
"Fifth Master, the people from the yamen are from the Lin family village. It is the late rice incident that I mentioned before I was dismissed. It should be Aunt Jiang's family who brought the food."

Shen Xingyuan nodded, put down the teacup, shook the folding fan, Shanzi shook the jade pendant hanging in his hand, "So, let's take a look!"

As soon as the officials of the county government saw so much food, they immediately went into the courtyard facing the food team, and blocked the people gathered outside the county government.

Headed by Shen Xingyun, followed by the county magistrate Li and the county magistrate Huang, the three of them walked around from the main house to the front compound, just in time to see a group of people and horses driving the ox carts and carriages inward. There are sacks of bulging grains.

"Caomin has met Mr. Li."

"The students have met Master Li."

Jiang Wen and Lin Dong knelt down one after another, and the team who heard the voice behind them were also excited and Peng Bai knelt on the ground with a grunt.

Shen Xingyuan looked at the group of people, the leader was all those who had eaten at the same table, he quietly stepped back a few steps, and gave him the place of County Magistrate Li.

County magistrate Li immediately raised his hands when he received the hint. He was so excited that he stepped forward to help several people up regardless of his identity. "Get up, Lin Dong, why are you being polite to me, get up quickly."

Lin Dong stood up nervously, "My lord, not long ago, the late rice that my mother agreed with you has already been harvested. Here is [-] catties of grain, all of which are produced by the [-] acres of land."

what!
The county magistrate was startled, pointing to the [-] mu of land and said in shock, "[-] catties of grain on [-] mu of land? How did you do this? Don't lie to me! I will believe it!"

"That's right! Eyes opened!" Huang Xiancheng couldn't control his expression even more than Li County Magistrate, his eyes widened in shock. He wandered around the farmer's fields with his brother-in-law all year round, and he watched it every day. With the documents of the village's grain collection, the yield per mu is naturally clear!
If this is [-] catties of [-] mu of land, that is more than [-] catties of grain per mu!

Simply incredible!Amazing!Pricking his ass with a knife opened his eyes!
Lin Dong was taken aback by Huang Xiancheng's voice, and he quickly said honestly: "Reporting to my lord, what the grass people said is the truth, as for how to do it, big cousin, please tell your lord carefully." .”

Jiang Wen took out a rolled-up manuscript from his arms, a thick one, he raised his hands, walked forward a few steps, and presented it to County Magistrate Li respectfully.

County magistrate Li hurriedly took it, and the first page he opened was "Detailed Explanation of Late Rice Planting" in large characters, and at the bottom were two lines of small characters neatly listed, which were:

Proposer of Late Rice——Jiang Yan

Recorder - Jiang Wen

The second page began to introduce the late rice in detail. He had seen Jiang Wen's words before, and he knew how careful and cautious the young man was for the pictures and texts he had drawn on the improvement of farm tools. The same is true for the detailed explanation of the late rice. It is detailed and detailed, knowing that it also intimately draws the growth appearance of different stages.

Shen Xingyuan was naturally also curious. He pretended to step forward inadvertently. Out of the corner of his eye, he landed on the pages of the book opened by County Magistrate Li. When he saw the handwriting, he couldn't help but exclaimed. Say hello to everyone.
