Chapter 129 First Snow
The weather was still cold, and when Chen Heng arrived at the camp, a huge sun was hanging above his head, and the golden light shone on the simple houses of the refugees, illuminating everything brightly and dazzlingly.

What is particularly gratifying is that between the wooden house and the tent, there are several cooking smoke slowly rising. It seems that some people are dissatisfied with eating porridge every day and are improving their own food.

This is the credit of Wei Yinghong and Lin Ruhai.After the refugees rushed to the west of the city, they offered to pay some wages to the refugees as soon as possible.

In order to let the refugees have a better New Year's Eve, Wei Yinghong shortened the wages to once every five days.Even if you don't get much, it's enough for the women in the family to keep busy.

What people fear most is not having too many things to do, but doing nothing.

Now Yangzhou has sufficient food stocks, and Suzhou, Hangzhou and other places are behind it.As long as the refugees don't take the initiative to make trouble, the righteous warehouses that have been prepared since September will be enough for them to survive until next year's spring farming.

If the coming year is a good time.

When Chen Heng came to the shed, his classmates were discussing this matter.

Their topic has jumped from 'whether there will be floods' to 'what to do with spring plowing when floods are coming'.

Seeing that everyone was discussing very excitingly, Chen Heng quietly found a seat in the back, sat quietly outside, and watched Du Yunjing debate with Cui Youdao.

Both of them are smart people, but their smartness is more like the students who just graduated from university in Chen Heng's previous life.All my talents are in knowledge, but I still feel a little bookish when I really want to look at and deal with a matter.

Cleverness and wisdom are like the relationship between talent and talent.Although the former is a gift from heaven, it is often the latter that really leads a person to the top.

If talent is compared to the beautiful fireworks that pass by in a flash, then talent is the endless sun and moon, which will last forever and shine for a lifetime.

For smart people, what they need most is experience.

When the experience is transformed into experience and the connection between everything in the world and people is understood, it is time for a person to do a career.

Du Yunjing and Cui Youdao are undoubtedly the group of people who have grown the most. From the issues they discussed, Chen Heng can feel that their perspective on issues is already higher than others.

Chen Heng listened for a while, and the topic of this group of people turned to "how to deal with waterlogging". The warm atmosphere in the shed really reminded him of the leisure time when he was studying in the past.

But Chen Heng was happy to hear it, but Du Yunjing noticed his figure, and quickly smiled and stretched out his hand, pointing to the crowd, "We have been talking for a long time, why don't we let this lazy person come up and talk to us."

When everyone turned their heads, they saw Chen Heng who was trying to hide, and they started booing for a while.

Although they don't know some things, they can still see the changes in the camp and the government office since Chen Heng took charge.

Although I still can't understand the relationship played by Chen Heng, it doesn't hinder everyone's appreciation of Chen Heng.

Those who are good at fighting have no great achievements. This man surnamed Chen is a person who can plan, judge and work together.

Chen Hengsheng couldn't help it, so he walked up to the stage amidst everyone's booing, coughed lightly, and decided to express his thoughts on the previous problems.

"I think floods will come, but it's hard to say how big it will be."

What Chen Heng said was very confident, he was not aimless.

This involves a piece of past geographical knowledge. The earth is round. Near the equator, it receives a lot of solar radiation, so the temperature is higher. After the hot air rises to the sky, it moves to the poles of the earth. Therefore, the tropics can be understood as a set. Roast lamps on the globe.

This ring is like a hood. Wherever it goes, it squeezes the air under itself, forming a short-term high-pressure area, which is the subtropical high pressure mentioned in geography class.

The function of the subtropical high is to suppress the evaporated water vapor and prevent it from rising and condensing into rain, which is also the cause of the severe drought.But these additional water vapor will not disappear for no reason, they have been gathering under the ring.

Just wait for it to recede, and the water vapor will rise directly, forming a rare torrential rain.

But after all, Chen Heng is not good at expressing the knowledge in his head directly. He thought about it and used a reason that is more acceptable to the world. .

When everyone heard it, they couldn't help but feel a little strange, and someone immediately asked: "What is this Xiangyu book? Why have I never heard of it."

Chen Heng was immediately dumbfounded. He found this book in the Lin family's library. He thought it was interesting and read it at the time, but he didn't expect that someone didn't know about it.

"It was written by Huang Zifa in the Tang Dynasty. I only heard that it was hidden in the Qintianjian in the capital. Brother, I don't know where you found this book? Can you lend me a look."

"This book belongs to the elders. I dare not make a decision on my own. I will ask when I go back." Chen Heng did not dare to agree indiscriminately. Although this book is hidden in a corner, it may not be Uncle Lin's favorite.

This classmate is very sorry, scholars like them always feel a little itchy when they encounter such a rare and lonely copy.

After such an interruption, everyone's curiosity about "Xiang Yu Shu" is obviously higher than that of flood disaster.

Everyone urged Chen Heng to talk about the contents of the book, and this matter was easy to handle, so Chen Heng picked some easy-to-understand knowledge points.

From how to watch the wind, watch the clouds, to the density of the rain, everyone listened to the novelty and fun, and there are some caring people who deliberately took out paper and pen to record.

After Chen Hengyang talked eloquently for a while, he met several refugees who came to ask about things.

Everyone just got up and only asked questions before leaving.

"Brother, it's okay even if you can't borrow the book, can you tell us about it tomorrow?"

"That's right, brother, I think what you said is simple and thorough, maybe it's easier than reading a book by myself."

In fact, it is no wonder that the students in several academies are excited. The masters only teach the Four Books and Five Classics, and they still have to supplement their extracurricular knowledge by themselves.For example, "Salt and Iron Theory", "Shui Jing Zhu", and this time "Xiang Yu Shu".

If you want to expect every master to be proficient in these, it is undoubtedly a dream.

Chen Heng didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so he agreed.

Seeing this, the students dispersed happily.

When they left, Chen Heng saw Xue Biao and others waiting for him. Jiang Yuanbai rushed up and complained on the spot, "Okay, Brother Heng, you are secretly reading books from us again."

"When I was watching in the dormitory, I didn't hide from you." Chen Heng spread his hands, his face full of innocence.

"Next time you read something, I'll bring your book and read the title first." Jiang Yuanbai couldn't help shaking his head, and said with a bit of grief and indignation.

Xue Biao patted Jiang Yuanbai's back with a smile, "Okay, okay, even if Brother Heng gives you the book, you can read it for a few days before throwing it aside."

Jiang Yuanbai was dumbfounded, glanced up and down at Xue Biao, and said, "Brother Tiao, are you really comforting me?"

"Hahahaha, let's go, let's go outside and talk while patrolling." Qian Dayou pushed the two of them behind him, he was wearing very thick clothes today, and there was a brass gong hanging around his waist, which looked very interesting.

On the way, Chen Heng told them about Miss Zhen again.

After the few of them knew the relationship between each other and Jia Yucun, they couldn't help feeling that fate was ingenious.

After talking about the topic, it turned to Xu Mazi again.

"Is there any news from the government office?"

"I heard that the investigation is still underway. There should be one or two salt merchants involved. I'm afraid there will be a result in a while."

"Is there no news from the direct guests at the newspaper shop?"

"Even if there is, I'm afraid it's not easy to announce it."

"By the way, Brother Heng, there is one thing that I need you to be careful about." Xue Biao suddenly said to Chen Heng, "I went home yesterday, and I heard from my father that there are many underground money houses in Yangzhou City, which are secretly being given to the locals." The people give interest money."

"What?!" Chen Heng frowned, but he felt helpless after thinking about it.

After all, it is difficult to deal with such things as you like and I wish in this era. After thinking for a while, he said, "Let's forget about the serious way. If you have the idea of ​​cheating and abducting, find a way to use their methods through the newspapers." Talk to the refugees."

"Okay, I'll go back and tell daddy." Xue Biao nodded.

"These rats are really like the gang of national thieves in the capital, lying on the people to suck blood, making people wish they could use their knives to kill them all."

Jiang Yuanbai was filled with righteous indignation. Among the refugees, there were a large number of people who fled from the capital.Through their narration, and then disseminated by newspapers, Yangzhou people also know the outrageous prices in the capital, as well as the behavior of wealthy families hoarding goods for money.

The emergence of newspapers is quietly disrupting the way and speed at which people receive news.Common people can know more and farther news with less money than before.

From the beginning of birth, a person has a desire for unknown exploration and information.The so-called rich and powerful families, while occupying massive resources, set up news barriers one after another.

So that people outside can neither see nor hear.

The gap between people, apart from the differences in intelligence and intelligence, the rest is the barrier of information.

But it doesn't matter, some things are the lights before dawn, as long as the seeds are in the soil, sooner or later they will grow into a big tree in the sky.

Chen Heng lowered his head and hurried on his way silently. He actually wanted to know the news of Guangzhou more than the rich and powerful families in the capital.

Does the glass that can bring foreigners over there herald a wider world?

The so-called Thirteen Banks in Guangzhou, are there any more?
Or has changed another name, really want to see ah.

…………

…………

That night, Chen Heng returned home and was sitting at home reviewing his homework.The two younger brothers suddenly ran in excitedly, pointing to the door.

"Brother, it's snowing. It's snowing."

The first snow in December came so early.

　Hahahaha, the episode may be delayed.There will be episodes of several heroines, don't worry, but they are not written together.First of all, thank you Wang Yu for writing the poem for Xiangling
