After traveling to ancient times, I became a superb shrew

Chapter 59 Second Season Rice

When the brother from the mall brought the rice threshing machine over, Gu Qing hurriedly asked someone to invite Li Zheng over.

Everyone was very busy in the autumn harvest, and so was Li Zheng's family, but when she heard that it was Gu Qing who told her to put down her work immediately, she rushed over.

Before he reached the field, Li Zheng saw a carriage parked at the entrance of Gu's Village.

She knew this carriage, and it was the exclusive vehicle of County Magistrate Shen.

Usually, when a horse-drawn carriage comes to the village, the villagers will definitely swarm to watch.

But now, the villagers were so busy that they could only see the rice in their eyes. They were a little dizzy when they stood up and looked up, and they didn't notice the carriage approaching at all.

The carriage continued to move forward and stopped at the door of Gu Qing's house.

Li Zheng quickly ran all the way to Gu Qing's house.

The carriage stopped, County Magistrate Shen stepped out of the carriage, and Li Zheng just rushed over.

When the two entered the door, Gu Qing was teaching Zhu Han how to use the rice thresher, and she saw that she was holding a handful of rice stalks and putting them into the rice thresher, and then stepped on the pedal in front of her to make the roller in the rice thresher high-speed. Running, hold the rice handle, make the ear head forward, lean on the rotating drum and turn it over repeatedly for threshing.

However, in just a few seconds, all the ears of grain on a handful of rice stalks were knocked off, which was fast, good and labor-saving.

"Miss Gu, you... this..." Li Zheng was so excited that he couldn't speak.

"Miss Gu, what are you?" County Magistrate Shen asked hastily.

"Master County Magistrate, Aunt Lizheng, this is a rice thresher I invented. There are five machines here, and I keep one at home. You can allocate the rest. You just saw how to use it. There is one thing that must be paid attention to. This roller When moving, you must not put your hands in, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous!"

Gu Qing took out the drawing of the rice threshing machine she had drawn before and gave it to County Magistrate Shen, "My lord, this is the drawing of the rice threshing machine."

If she didn't take out the drawing, Gu Qing was really afraid that County Magistrate Shen would take away all her rice-threshing machines if she got excited. After all, County Magistrate Shen was in charge of five villages.

County magistrate Shen took it and looked at the overall composition of the rice thresher and the parts markings on each part. The more he looked at it, the more excited he became: "Ms. Gu is a great talent. The most tedious part of the autumn harvest every year is threshing. Your move is very good. Very good, I will definitely report it to the imperial court and spread it throughout the country, so that the people of our Daliang Kingdom can save several days of harvest time in the future."

Gu Qing's smiling eyes moved.

She raised her head and said, "Master County Magistrate, Caomin still has something to say."

County Magistrate Shen's expression suddenly became serious. First, he took away the pesticides to remove the locusts, and then got the rice grinder. It can be seen that the methods proposed by Gu Qing are all excellent. Since she opened her mouth, it must not be a trivial matter.

What Gu Qing wants to talk about is the second crop of rice. In her previous life, everyone in her rural hometown would plant two crops, so there would be a lot of surplus grain. I thought the farmers here would do the same, but looking around today, there are only endless rice fields. As for the seedlings, I only found out after asking Yang Pei that they are only planted here for one season.

After harvesting this season, they began to fertilize the farmland, which was a waste in ancient times when food was scarce!

Immediately after she fainted, the county magistrate hired a doctor for her in his own carriage, and the shop opened. Although Shen Qiuhua didn't mention anything, Gu Qing guessed that it was definitely ordered by the county magistrate, otherwise she and Shen Qiuhua would not know each other at all. How could it be possible to prepare a gift early in the morning on the opening day and come to join us? Since the county magistrate treated her so favorably, she would naturally have to reciprocate.

She said in an orderly manner: "We have a unique climate in Nanzhou, it only starts to get cold in November, has the county magistrate thought about planting two crops of rice?
When I was drinking in a restaurant, I heard that some remote mountain villages had nothing to eat after paying the tax, so I thought of a way to grow seedlings before the autumn harvest. Planting seedlings..."

County magistrate Shen nodded frequently: "Master Yuan, write down what Mrs. Gu said, and read it to all the Lizhengs in the village tomorrow..."

Master Yuan murmured as he memorized, that Mrs. Gu is fond of wine and loves to go to a place of three religions and nine schools. He even inquired about it and reported it to Shen County Magistrate. He also verified the source of Gu Qing's last pesticide prescription. Strange people and strange things?
It seems that he has to go to those places to sit often if he has nothing to do.

Gu Qing didn't realize at all that in just a few moments, Master Yuan was misled.

County magistrate Shen came in a mighty way, and left in a big way.

As soon as Master Guan left, the Gu family erupted.

Li was looking at the only remaining rice thresher with an old face. This good thing, which was just hot, disappeared in the blink of an eye. other people in the village.

"Auntie Lizheng, don't be so sad," Gu Qing blinked at Lizheng, "there will be a rice blower delivered tomorrow."

"Really?" Li Zheng immediately said as if he had been beaten with chicken blood, "And is the second-season rice you said really okay?"

"Of course it's possible, I look like that unreliable person?" Gu Qing patted her chest with a serious face.

"It used to be like that, but now, hehe!" Li Zheng blushed slightly, smiling from ear to ear, "If this is true, you will be the benefactor of our Gu Family Village, no, the whole Daliang!"

"Aunt Lizheng, hurry up and go back to the autumn harvest. Remember to hold a meeting tonight and tell the villagers!"

After sending Lizheng away, Gu Qing hurriedly placed an order in the mall, and then directed everyone to take out the drum of the rice thresher, divided it into two parts and carried them to the field.

"Patriarch, isn't it a bit violent to put such a precious thing in this water?" Yang Pei is a good hand in the field, so he naturally doesn't want to put such a good thing in such a random way.

"It's okay, this thing is not bad after soaking, and we can cut and harvest immediately, and the autumn harvest will be faster! Listen to my arrangement now, the four of you continue to harvest, the two of you are responsible for carrying the rice stalks, and the two of you are responsible for threshing the ears of rice, you The two are responsible for bagging the beaten rice behind here.

Pay attention to those who are scooping rice, don't put your body under the drum, the flying drum will smash your head, so be careful! "

Gu Qing has repeatedly emphasized this matter. She was almost hit by a roller when she was a child, and her memory is still fresh.

"Zhu Han, it's getting late, let's go back and cook first." With so many people, we had to cook earlier.

On the way back, Gu Qing saw from a distance that her new house was like the construction site of her previous life. The outermost walls had been completely built up, and the walls were ten feet high. The details of the construction inside could not be seen from the outside. arrive.

When the two returned home, Gu Qing went inside to check on the wound on Gu Yu's head. Seeing that she was recovering well, she went out to kill five ducks and five chickens with Zhu Han, and cut up a bunch of meat for cooking. A braised pork.

Knowing that the owner likes to eat dry rice, Zhu Han and the others bought two hundred catties of rice from the town when they came back, but the grains of this rice were not as big as the ones that the owner took out before.
