My whole family is punching cards in the farming article to survive

"I will not interfere with your government affairs for the next few days. I will take my people around to experience the local customs and then start planning based on the situation here."

On the second day, Mei Mei didn't ask Xiang Yi to follow him. She just asked him to give her a local guide.

In addition, the junior officials also arranged various tasks for Mei Mei and started research around the city together.

The appearance of Mei Bei and the others brought about the things the clerks did which aroused curiosity.

Some brave ones even took the initiative to chat with the junior officials, and this conversation was full of useful information.

When they organized the information they had researched according to Meiberry's requirements and handed it to Meiberry, Meiberry wanted to say that it was well done!
Before that, Meiberry himself was not idle either.

According to the electronic map of the system, Meiberry soon discovered that there were many medicinal materials in the mountains here.

"Yes, the mountains here are at the very edge of the Xianyun Mountains. There are many rare and old medicinal materials in Xianyun Mountains. I never thought about it at first, but now that I think about it carefully, the mountains here may be very suitable for the growth of medicinal materials. "

Mei Mei took the people all the way out of the city and wandered around the nearby mountains for a long time based on the electronic map to collect some old medicine.

She plans to go back and give it to Tian Qi to concoct and then give it to Mr. Xue. Mr. Xue will definitely be very happy.

However, when Mayberry was picking herbs, she clearly discovered that there were traces of other people coming to the nearby mountains.

And more than one person,

In this mountain, you can see that there are all human-made paths, which shows how much the people in Fucheng here like to go into the mountains.

Mei Berry couldn't help but think about it. If Mei You traveled here, it would be difficult to find anything in the mountains.

People here really rely on the mountains and the mountains, how can they give you a chance to stand out?

"Looking at the people here in Fucheng, they are not lazy people. How can they live such a miserable life?"

With these questions, Mei Bei returned to Fucheng. After that, Mei Bei paid special attention to the daily living conditions of the people in Fucheng.

Everyone is dressed very poorly. Although they are not fully clothed, the color and style of their clothes are obviously from a long time ago.

There are very few large-scale shops in Xianyao's city, let alone chain shops, there is nothing at all.

They are all small grocery stores, selling only daily groceries for ordinary people.

Not to mention the capital city of Yunzhou, even Fengning can't compare to this level. But even so, there is rarely a look of misery on the faces of the people here in Meiberry.

They live their ordinary lives and do not seem to feel despair due to material poverty.

This is not a change that can be brought about by the appearance of these two things, sweet potatoes and potatoes.

They really don't seem to care.

"Whoever comes to such a poor city doesn't despise Xianyao?"

Mei Mei spent two days wandering around Xianyao's city, and she couldn't help but be speechless as she looked at the information collected by various petty officials.

Coastal counties such as Fengning and Zhaolin are slightly better because of their geographical location.

Because Xie Chang knew where they were, Mei Liang refused to comment on the development of Hanqiang. However, Tianya, who was born in Hanqiang, also said that those in Hanqian County were poor in the early years.

Fucheng, which is the face of Yizhou, is even poorer than Hanshang. Tianya, under Mei Mei's instructions, went through the calculations of Fucheng's tax revenue in the past two years.

The tax was so low that Tianya read it again and again. When reporting to Mayberry, she inevitably talked about some off-topic topics.

The city of Xianyao was so poor. When Hanqiang was hit by the snowstorm, the city spent all its money on disaster relief.

Although Tianya was young at the time, she vaguely remembered that someone from the imperial court was sent to provide disaster relief.

"None of the disaster relief money has been released."

Tianya's eyes were sad when she said this.

"For the sake of corruption, they didn't even take our lives. If His Highness and the others weren't here, maybe everyone would have died in the snowstorm that year..."

Tianya is learning to read and study and work with Mei Qiang. In fact, she has been vaguely aware of what the people she is following are doing.

But Tianya was only worried and scared for a moment.

Without their existence, perhaps their family would have died long ago.

"So, they don't deserve it."

Not worthy of the people's expectations and loyalty.Meiberry thought so in her heart, and then put the compiled materials at hand and called Xiang Yi.

Xiang Yi saw what Meiberry had sent people to do in the past few days, and he also looked at the people Meiberry brought with him with admiration.

Xiang Yi was also expecting Meiberry to prepare so much material and ask questions to himself this time, and this time he did not say anything high-sounding or unbearable, and was honest about all Meiberry's doubts. answer.

"Actually, to be honest with the Lord, many people here in Fucheng make a living as hunters and sellers of mountain products, although they also farm at the foot of the mountain.

But, but this place is barren. If it weren't for the sweet potatoes and potatoes promoted by the commander, the food here would not be enough every year. "

"So it is."

Mei Bei was very surprised. There were many people in the city making a living as hunters. Not to mention whether there were enough wild beasts in the mountains, it was strange that these people dared to think that they could make a living by hunting.

"Back to the Lord, the epidemic occurred here many years ago and many people died. Many people in the city were immigrants."

After Xiang Yi finished speaking, Mei Pei remembered what Zhou Ziyao had given her in the book - "There are mostly middle-aged men in Xianyao."

At that time, Mei Berry thought it was a bit strange, but combined with Xiang Yi's words, Mei Berry felt that there was some big news here.

"Most of the people in Fucheng have been in the military."

"Where are the soldiers..."

When Mei Bei heard Xiang Yi's answer, she immediately thought of the retired soldiers at Yanping Pass.

But obviously, there are not many disabled people in the city. It is obvious that they are not retired soldiers, but moved here due to other circumstances.

Suddenly, a suspicion flashed through Mei Berry's mind: "Are you from Prince Changping...?"

Before Mei Mei finished speaking, she nodded to Xiang Yi.

“When the prince’s family was imprisoned, I was out doing business and was ambushed and could not go back to help.

Although I have been hiding here for many years, I have been working for His Highness just to avenge His Highness.

Now there is hope. It is an honor for us to have the Lord help His Highness so wholeheartedly! "

After Xiang Yi finished speaking, he was about to kneel down for Mei Bei. Fortunately, Mei Bei found out quickly and stepped forward to imitate the movements in the TV series to support the other party.

However, she really wanted to kneel down, but she didn't have the strength to hold it back. As a result, she couldn't help her with her small arms and legs, and she was taken down directly.

With a "bang", Meiberry knelt down louder than Xiang Yi.

This scene made the middle-aged man pale with fright.

"Junjun, are you okay?"

This time, before Mei Berry could call him to get up, he quickly got up by himself, and then helped Mei Berry lift him up.

"It's okay, don't kneel down all the time, talk to me carefully first QAQ."

That "kneeling" just now made Meiberry feel that her knees were hurting to death!
But when it comes to business, she can't cry QvQ!
When the rebellion of Prince Changping occurred, Xiang Yi and other close associates of the prince were leading troops to perform official duties.

Before the prince's accident, they were ambushed outside and suffered numerous casualties.

In the end, they organized the remaining people and tried to rush back to the imperial capital, but they were unable to do so.

"Later Mr. Xie... ah, Mr. Xie brought a blood letter written by His Highness and the news that His Highness is still alive. Only then did I listen to Mr. Xie's words and come to Xianyao's dormant strength to accumulate power for His Highness."

Thanks to the arrival of people like them, Xianyao City can still exist to this day, and it has deceived the court with such a dilapidated scene for many years.

Hearing that these people had made such huge sacrifices, Mei Berry couldn't help but rub her knees and asked: "Then you deceived the court. In fact, the poverty here is fake?"

"If I go back to the county, it's not true, we are really poor.

But fortunately, the taxes we deceive the court and hide every year are still enough to make ends meet. "

Plum Berry: ...

Mayberry: Wow, pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger!

Xiang Yi: Except for being poor, everything else is fake.

Mayberry: ...Actually, what I hope to be poor is also false.
