On the eve of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Chen Fan took some people to make some moon cakes and distributed two boxes to everyone in the yamen.

The county magistrate thanked them very politely.The handymen were so excited that their eyes filled with tears. This was the mooncake handed out by the county magistrate, and it was the first time they received mooncakes for the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Chen Fan and Zhang Ci sat in the courtyard to watch the moon.

"What's on the moon?" Chen Fan asked him.

"There are Chang'e, Jade Rabbit, Wu Gang, Osmanthus Tree and Guanghan Palace." Zhang Ci's answer is still those myths.

"What are they doing?"

"Drinking, watching us watch the moon."

Chen Fan couldn't help laughing: "Master Zhang wrote a poem?"

Zhang Ci raised his wine glass: "Raise your glass to invite the bright moon, Madam will continue."

"There are three people drinking together." Chen Fan answered, "It's better for us to watch the moon quietly."

Zhang Ci caressed her swollen belly: "Well, it's the first time for our family of four to watch the moon together."

Chen Fan thought of the telescope, so he cut the mooncake into concave and convex lenses with a knife: "Grind it into such a shape with glass, or directly make such a concave lens and a convex lens, and install them on both ends of a tube respectively. Zoom in on things far away to see clearly."

Zhang Ci was very interested: "Then I'll try. Is this what you suddenly wanted to do, or did you think about it a long time ago?"

"I thought about making one a long time ago, but I didn't have to do it, so I put it on hold. There are so many mountains and dense forests in Yuanshuo County, and the telescope is very important."

"Telescope?" Zhang Ci pondered over the name, "That's a good name. Is there anything else interesting?"

Chen Fan thought for a while: "How is your carpentry skill now?"

"good."

"Then let's use wood to make cars. We can make all kinds of cars, children's cars, adults' cars. You, daddy, are in charge of our children's cribs and cars."

Zhang Ci hugged her: "Are you treating me like a cow? Do you want to make a bigger Trojan horse for you to shake?"

"No, no, no, you can combine the wooden horse and the chair to make a rocking car." Chen Fan increased the difficulty.

"As long as the car can draw a picture, it can be done very quickly."

Chen Fan looked at the moon: "Is the capital enjoying the moon too?"

"It must be, but I don't know how they will miss us." Zhang Ci also looked at the moon.

Chen Fan has always been a little worried that the capital city is not as chic and comfortable as Changping Township, and there are a lot of complicated people and things.

Zhang Ci caressed her brow: "It's thousands of miles away, it's useless to worry about it. They study day by day, and the time passes quickly. It's just a group of children. Even if some people have thoughts, they won't do too much to them." Out of line."

Yuanshuo County didn't know how to make glass, so Zhang Ci wrote a letter and sent it out.Next, he was busy doing carpentry.

The sketch of the bicycle was drawn by Chen Fan, and someone else did it on the Internet.She said: "If wood can be made, the wheels can be made of iron and wood like a carriage, and gears and chains can also be made."

She made a chain out of dough and showed it to Zhang Ci.

Zhangci made it very quickly, and in two days, the wooden bicycle was made.Go up and kick a few feet, you can really move forward.

"How do you think I'm riding?" He rode in circles in the yard.As expected of someone with kung fu, he has mastered stability so quickly.

"Husband is really amazing." Chen Fan praised.

"This bike is really amazing, as long as it moves, it won't fall down." Zhang Ci rode around again.

He got out of the car: "I want to make a car with iron."

"That's much more complicated. The chain alone will take a lot of work." Chen Fan felt a little difficult.

"It's okay, do it slowly, and don't rush to finish it in a few days. I'll try to make a chain first." Zhang Ci was itchy in his heart, "Please help me make the picture more detailed."

"It involves a lot of things, and it needs lubricating oil, otherwise it will affect the rotation and be easy to wear. The wheels are a big problem. The wooden wheels are too bumpy. I hope to find an elastic and strong material. The same is true for carriage wheels. "

"The whole car may take several years to figure out. I want to finish the gears and chain now. The county government still has a lot of work to do, and I don't have much time at home."

"Chen Yue's wedding is on August [-]th, the day before the cold dew." Chen Fan's topic turned a bit too much.

"It's a pity, I can only hope that she will feel the affection when she receives something," Zhang Ci said.

The wedding of Chen Yue and General Hussars once again caused a sensation in the capital, and 88 carried the dowry along the stretch of the street.Except for calligraphy and painting and silk and satin, there are jade and Wanguan copper coins.

Unfortunately, Chen Fan and Zhang Ci are not in the capital.Prince Liangdi Chen Fangying organized the wedding as her natal family, and also supported Chen Yue so that outsiders would not underestimate her.

During the autumn harvest season, everyone is very busy. Officials are running around to see the people's autumn harvest and investigate the rice harvest.

The county magistrate put the materials in front of Chen Fan, and reported his work with joy: "This year's output has increased compared with last year, the highest reached twelve shi, and the lowest was eight shi. After paying the land tax, the people still have a lot of surplus grain .”

"The weather is very good these days, so the autumn harvest is going well everywhere. The rice has been dried and put into the warehouse." The county captain is also very happy.

Chen Fan nodded: "When I'm done, I'll find someone who can make sweet potato starch and vermicelli, and go to each village to teach the villagers how to make vermicelli, and pay them. After the villagers make it, they can sell it to the county government."

She flipped through the wasteland ledger again: "How much of the idle land has been reclaimed?"

"More than 1 acres have been reclaimed. Mr. Zhang has continuously transported pasture and decomposed manure from other places. The soil quality has improved greatly compared to before, and pasture can be planted. But are there so many pasture seeds? Do we need so much pasture?" The county magistrate is worried.

"Grass seed master Zhang will solve it. When the common people raise ducks, rabbits, pigs, pigs and cattle, you will find that you really need so much grass. And the grass can be dried, and it won't go bad after a few months .In case of floods and droughts, fodder can also be supplied.”

Zhang Ci added: "In addition to growing grain, Yuanshuo County can also develop aquaculture. Raising ducks and rabbits is also very profitable."

The county magistrate and county lieutenant were very happy.

Chen Fan said: "The people have a lot of sweet potatoes and corn, and they may sell some rice for copper coins. Now you can mobilize the people to raise chickens, ducks and rabbits. Mr. Zhang has a better understanding of the poultry markets in other places. If you are interested, you can follow them. have a look."

"Do you want to go out of Yuanshuo County? How many days will it take for those nearby?" The county captain responded quickly.

"It will take three to five days to go back and forth." Zhang Ci said.

The county seat and the county lieutenant decisively chose to go on a business trip, with subsidies, and they could see the outside world.

Chen Fan watched Zhang Ci pack his luggage, and said, "I seem to have tricked my husband by letting him go on business trips for so many days, and even exposed a part of the farm."

Zhang Ci patted her forehead with a smile: "Pretend, Master Chen, do you want to go on a business trip with me?" Chen Fan also smiled and punched him.

Those chickens, ducks, cattle, and sheep will show up anyway. Qingji and the others are already in the county government, and Zhang Ci still has so many people manually transporting pasture, chickens, ducks, cattle, and sheep. Doing other things is easy to arouse people's suspicion. Put it on the bright side.

The farming team of [-] acres of land came from other places, so they took the county magistrate and magistrate to that farm to have a look and see how other farms developed.
