Ancient Imperial Examination Daily

Chapter 725 Discourage
What Du Jinning said was not because he didn't feel pain in his back when he stood up and talked.

If she didn't have the support of the emperor and no guards to use, she believed that with her own ability, she would never live like Ma Jian.In just half a year, she will be able to cure Cao Hongshou into obedience, not daring to make any more mistakes.It's just that she wants to do agricultural research now, and she doesn't want to spend her energy on intrigue with others, so she borrowed the power of the emperor and Yuwei.

She had to give herself and Zhao Wei a satisfactory answer within three years.In the past three years, she needs a peaceful environment and someone to listen to her instructions.At this time, she would be a fool if she didn't use Zhao Yu's power and fought to the death by herself.

In front of Zhao Mian, she only needs to be a quiet, talented and beautiful man, without showing her sharp minions.Otherwise, what should I do if I scare Zhao He?It is not a good impression for the emperor to think that you are too cunning and ruthless.

Ma Jian over there didn't know that Du Jinning had despised him in his heart, and he was still talking about his grievances.

Du Jinning didn't interrupt him, just responded with "hmmmmhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh", and occasionally said sympathetically, "Master Ma, you've worked hard."

After talking for a long time, Ma Jian stopped complaining and asked Du Jinning, "What is Master Du going to do next?"

"Ah?" Du Jinning raised his eyes suspiciously, looking at Ma Jian, as if he didn't understand what he meant.

Ma Jian showed a very embarrassing expression on his face, and said: "I know, it's a bit rash to ask like this, but if Mr. Du can manage Mr. Cao, then our life will be much easier."

As he spoke, he looked at Du Jinning expectantly.

"..."

Du Jinning was speechless.

The so-called exchanging shallow words and deep words is the current situation.

Ma Jian had no relationship with her, and he had turned a blind eye to her before, and had never extended a helping hand to her; even if he came this time, he was afraid that Cao Hongshou would find out, so he sneaked over until dark.With such a dishonest person, why did he think that Du Jinning would tell him how to deal with Cao Hongshou with all his heart?
What if he was sent by Cao Hongshou to find out her details?
How stupid would she have to be to tell him what she thought?
I don't know if this Ma Jian has ulterior motives or his EQ is too low.

She smiled wryly and shook her head: "If I had that means, I wouldn't have been sent here from the Imperial Academy."

"I heard that Mr. Du seems to have a very good relationship with Mr. Qi, Minister of the Ministry of Officials?" Ma Jian asked tentatively.

Du Jinning took a deep look at him: "I'm just a classmate with Mr. Qi's grandson." As she spoke, she joked, "If Mr. Ma's son's classmate encounters any trouble, will Mr. Ma still try his best to Risking offending the emperor to help him solve the problem?"

"Hehe, naturally we have to do what we can." Ma Jian smiled embarrassingly.

"That's it." Du Jinning nodded, and picked up the teacup, "This is the new tea of ​​this year, Mrs. Ma might as well try it."

This is serving tea to see off guests.

Although Ma Jian was a little unwilling, after drinking two sips of tea and boasting a few words, he had to get up and leave.

Sending Ma Jian away, Aoki came back and asked: "Master, do you want to send someone to check on this Master Ma?"

Because the guard lived far away from here, the master and servant didn't have to sneak around when they had some private conversations.This made Du Jinning much more at ease.

Du Jinning thought for a while: "It's okay to check." She wrote a note and asked Aoki to send it to Qin Laoliu.

In fact, what kind of person Ma Jian is has no effect on Du Jinning.If he came to inquire about the news on behalf of Cao Hongshou, Du Jinning wouldn't even be afraid of Cao Hongshou, would he still be afraid of a horse sword?Just keep your mouth shut; if he just sat on the bench in the yamen for a long time and wanted to win an ally and pour out some bitterness, then there is no need to investigate.

Let Qin Lao Liu go to investigate, just because he is afraid that Qin Lao Liu will be too free.It is also good to find something for them to do.Furthermore, when the time came to deal with Cao Hongshou and the others, how loyal Ma Jian was, the treatment of him would naturally be different.From this point of view, it is necessary to check.

Seeing Aoki leave with the note, Du Jinning rested.

The next day, she didn't even go to the yamen, went straight to Zhuangzi, inspected around, and found that the fields had been plowed, and they were carefully raked with a rake, and water was put on the fields.The embankment of the rice field was also widened and heightened according to her request, and was patted firmly.At the same time, fish ditches and fish pits were dug in the rice fields, and fish fences were set up.

Du Jinning not only wants to grow double-cropping rice, but also plans to raise fish in the rice fields.

Fish farming in rice fields can not only obtain fish products, but also use fish to eat pests and weeds in rice fields, excrete manure, turn the soil to promote fertilizer decomposition, and create good conditions for rice growth. Generally, rice production can be increased by about [-]%.

In Lishui County before, Du Jinning never dared to use this trick because he was worried about being guilty of the crime.Now that she has to let go of her hands and feet, she naturally wants to use this good method of increasing production and income.

Song Zhuangtou heard that Du Jinning was coming, and immediately came over: "Du Dong's family, I heard that you want to raise fish in the rice field?"

"Exactly." Du Jinning nodded and looked at Song Zhuangtou. She knew that Song Zhuangtou had many doubts in his heart, and even held objections to this matter.If Song Zhuangtou can object to this matter, she will reuse this old man.

If Song Zhuangtou is flattering and flattering, just doing things according to her wishes, regardless of whether the matter is right or wrong, and always puts on the attitude of "I have nothing to do with it", she will naturally have to change people.

Fortunately, Song Zhuangtou was elected by Zhuangzi to be Zhuangtou. He was indeed a pure-hearted person.

He said: "Du Dong's family, this can't work. Even if you raise grass carp, this kind of fish has a very mixed diet and will eat rice seedlings. It's another matter whether the fish can be raised or not, and the rice will be completely destroyed. Let's You can’t lose food because of fish farming. If the owner wants to raise fish, he can dig a few acres of fish ponds and specialize in fish farming. With [-] acres of land, the water is shallow, food can’t be grown, and fish can’t be raised well. It's a big loss."

If Songzhuangtou is educated, he must say that Du Jinning "put the cart before the horse".

"Father Wang should have told Song Zhuangtou that we raised fish in the rice fields before?" Du Jinning laughed.

"I said so." Song Zhuangtou said, "But it's just a matter of a few acres of land. If you take care of it carefully, it may be successful. And it's just a fish that has been raised for a year. One success does not mean success every year. If the owner really wants to raise it, he can raise it with a few acres or a dozen acres, there is really no need to take such a risk."
