Reborn in the late Northern Wei Dynasty

Chapter 292 "Essential Techniques for the People of Qi"

Although the Jia family in Yidu passed on farming and education, they are local nobles. Jia Sixie also served as an official in the early years.

Just because of the chaotic current situation and the dark government, he abandoned the post of sheriff of Gaoyang County, Qingzhou.

The so-called three immortals of virtue, meritorious service, and speech are deeply imprinted in the hearts of scholars like Jia Sixie.

However, he did not abandon his official position and start writing, but after a long period of practice, he used his past agricultural knowledge to manage the agriculture and animal husbandry industry himself.

For example, there is an article in "Qi Min Yao Shu" called "Raising Sheep". The reason why Jia Sixie was able to speak clearly in it was because he bought [-] sheep and raised them himself.

At the same time, Jia Sixie did not just focus on summarizing his own experience in planting and breeding. He also quoted more than 150 agricultural books and miscellaneous works by predecessors, including "Book of Bo Sheng", "Monthly Order of the Four People" and "Tao Zhugong Fish Raising Classic". Content.

It can be seen that he has studied agronomy deeply and made sufficient preparations.

And this masterpiece, which he devoted his whole life to, consists of 10 volumes and 92 articles, with more than 11 words, covering agriculture, forestry, animal husbandry, sideline, fishery and other agricultural fields.

There is no need to question the importance of this agricultural book to Gao Cheng, otherwise he would not rush to send someone to escort Jia Sixie and "Qi Min Yao Shu" into Luo.

It was already mid-November when Xue Huer, his sister-in-law Zhang Mo and others arrived in Yidu.

Jia Sixie has been waiting at home for nearly a month.

He has been obsessed with books these years, but he is by no means deaf to what is going on outside the window. There is no impenetrable wall in the world, and Yidu is only this big.

It's no secret that Gao Cheng valued him, or the "Qi Min Yao Shu" he was creating at the time.

After all, there are always people who have been threatened by Gao Cheng to leak their words.

Jia Sixie knew clearly that when the manuscript was finished, those strong men who had moved to the surrounding area for several years would send letters to Luoyang.

But he never imagined that on this day, he would still be in a state of confusion.

"Your Excellency is the former Gaoyang prefect Jia Gong?"

Xue Hu'er asked respectfully.

If it weren't for his muscular body, the onlookers would have thought he was a Confucian scholar.

As a Ku Zhi, Xue Hu'er knew how much Gao Cheng valued this agricultural book, although he didn't know the difference between this book and other agricultural books.

"It's the old man, dare to ask the general's name?"

Jia Sixie didn't dare to neglect, and asked Xue Hu'er in return.

Xue Hu'er immediately expressed his intention of coming:
"Don't dare to be called a general, Xue Hu'er, who is a low-ranking officer, is now a general under the command of Kuzhi, and this time he was ordered to escort Mr. Jia into Luo. Please pack your bags quickly. The general has already prepared a car for you. Please also Don't delay."

As he spoke, he pointed to the carriage behind him and introduced:

"In the past, the great general used this car to travel around when he visited places."

When the onlookers in front of Jia's gate heard about this, they were all in an uproar.

You can't talk nonsense, and you can't sit in the car.

Gao Cheng let Jia Sixie enter Luo in his own carriage, not to mention the brilliance along the way, this attention is enough to make people grateful.

Jia Sixie didn't make Xue Hu'er wait too long, and the group left Yidu City that day.

This is destined to be a two-way rush. Gao Cheng knows the greatness of "Qi Min Yao Shu", and Jia Sixie, who created this great work, also needs Gao Cheng to promote it on his behalf.

When Xue Hu'er escorted Jia Sixie to the west, Yecheng also had a convoy leaving the city, that is, Yang Min, the outgoing governor of Xiangzhou.

Yang Min has been out of town for seven years, and Gao Cheng deliberately transferred him back to Luoyang.

As for the replacement candidate, everyone thought that Gao Cheng must be from the shogunate, but when it was actually announced, many people were unexpected.

It was Du Bi, the former censor lieutenant.

Although Du Bi had never been Gao Cheng's staff member for even a day, he was favored by Gao Cheng because of his honesty, self-defense, and courage to do things.

Since resigning from the position of lieutenant censor, Du Bi has been transferred to other posts in the past two years, all of which were specially done by Gao Cheng in order to train him.

Every time, Du Bi did not disappoint him, and he was competent in all his duties, which made Gao Cheng rest assured that he would be the governor of Xiangzhou.

Yang Min, who had handed over government affairs to Du Bi, was leading his family to Luoyang.

He knew that, after seven years of honing himself outside, unless he was alienated and dismissed, he would never leave town again in the future.

The chief officials of the three provinces are the only goal.

In late November, Jia Sixie and Yang Min arrived in Luoyang.

Gao Cheng first warmly received Jia Sixie, and took him to visit the major printing workshops around Luoyang. During the inspection, he promised Jia Sixie the status of "Qi Min Yao Shu" as a textbook.

He didn't need to go to extraneous measures to test the content quality of "Qi Min Yao Shu".

Jia Sixie was overjoyed at this, but she didn't particularly care about Gao Cheng's assignment of the post of Minister of the Household Department, which was specially in charge of farming and animal husbandry in various places.

Gao Cheng once said that after the establishment of the imperial examination, those who did not take the imperial examination to become an official were not allowed to enter the central government.

It's just that Jia Sixie's contribution is really too great, whoever wants to give him another book comparable to "Equal Fame and Essential Skills", Gao Cheng will not know if he will introduce the other party into the center, and he will have to marry into the relationship.

If Jia Sixie hadn't been too old, maybe she could really be the son-in-law of the Gao family.

In order to arrange for the real son-in-law of the Gao family, Yang Min, Gao Cheng asked the emperor to resign from the position of minister.

Yuan Shanjian thought that Gao Cheng was trying to test him and was determined not to allow it, until he repeatedly pulled it three times, and finally saw that Gao Cheng recommended Shangshu Zuopushe Gao Longzhi to succeed Shangshu Ling, and then appointed Yang Minbu as Shangshu Zuopushe, Yuan Shanjian reluctantly agreed down.

The reason why Gao Cheng delegated powers was because next year's focus will be on the military level, that is, the Second Western Expedition.

At the same time, the fact that one person is in charge of three provinces also makes Gao Cheng tired of government affairs, and it is true that he is too busy.

In addition, there is a third point, Gao Long's eight years of hard work, and it is time to mention it.

In order to appease Shangshu's right servant who shot Sun Teng, Gao Cheng gave him a servant.

After going around for eight years, Sun Teng finally took back the position of servant who lost due to jealousy with Feng Longzhi.

Gao Cheng originally planned to remove Gao Long's position as servant in order to maintain the size of the three servants, namely Gao Cheng, Sun Teng, and Sima Ziru.

However, considering the need for Gao Longzhi to often enter the palace to teach Yuan Shanjian, it was retained.

So, after a few years, four servants gathered in Luoyang again.

But no one will ever sing about Luoyang's four nobles.

Jia Sixie, who worked as the servant of the household department and was in charge of farming and animal husbandry, handled affairs with ease.

And Shangshu Zuo Pushe Yang Min also re-divided the ownership of six departments with Sun Teng. Sun Teng was in charge of the three departments of household, rites, and punishment, and Yang Min was in charge of the three departments of officials, workers, and soldiers.

As the Shangshu Zuo Pushe in charge of the Ministry of Industry, Yang Min's first thing to do was to call craftsmen to make engravings for "Equal Names and Essentials".

More than 11 words is not a small project.
