Chapter 43 Ridiculous

Chapter 43 Ridiculous
Ruoxuan blinked her eyes: Does Tuomeng still teach people how to do it?Does this need to be taught?Human beings are not flowers, when the flood comes, just hide!

But Ruoxuan still thought for a while before saying: "The old god said that the crops in the field should be harvested immediately, otherwise they will be destroyed by the flood; and that some food and clothing should be prepared in advance and placed in high places to satisfy hunger and keep out the cold. The poultry at home Domestic animals, stored grain and valuables were also moved to higher places; as soon as the rain was not coming, people also hid in high places as quickly as possible, and..."

Ruoxuan racked her brains and thought a little more: "Strengthen the dam to prevent it from breaking, and dredge the river to let the flood subside as soon as possible! That's all the old fairy said! Then I saw the flood coming in my dream, destroying the houses and submerging the good fields. You wake up with a scare!"

A flower can only know so much. I really can’t think of anything, so don’t embarrass her!
Magistrate Zhang was really shocked. Is it so serious to destroy houses and flood farmland?

There are also these methods of preventing floods, which are simple but effective, and these should not be understood by a three-year-old child.

Is there really a fairy dreaming?
County magistrate Zhang looked up at the cloudless blue sky. Will there be floods?

Forget it, do your best and obey the destiny!
He is well prepared, even if there is no flood, he will only be marked as stupid in terms of political achievements, and it will be even more difficult to convince his subordinates and the people when he governs, but as long as he does things for the people wholeheartedly, the people will believe him one day of.

Anyway, dredging water conservancy, strengthening and building dams will have to be done sooner or later, it is better to do it sooner than later!

After County Magistrate Zhang made up his mind, he asked a lot: "Did the old god say when there will be floods?"

Ruoxuan sniffed lightly and judged based on the smell of water carried by the wind: "It will start raining in five days."

County Magistrate Zhang: There is even time, the old god really puts all his heart into this dream.

In the end, County Magistrate Zhang went from not believing it at all to believing it a little bit!
Believe a little bit, and defend it according to a little bit. He doesn't understand how he would believe it, and feels uneasy.

He quickly thought of a countermeasure in his heart, and said to the village chief: "Village chief, the yamen will also buy wild bamboo shoots from today, raw for one penny per catty, dry for three pennies per catty, please tell the villagers, and the harvested wild shoots will be harvested." The bamboo shoots can be sent to the Yamen.”

As soon as the villagers heard that the yamen charged a penny and a catty, everyone immediately felt that the weak family was really too good, and the county magistrate was not good at it!
Everyone doesn't know that the county magistrate collected it for disaster relief, and it will be used for free for the people at that time.

One penny and one catty is the wages given by the county magistrate Zhang to the people.Moreover, a penny and a catty are not cheap, after all, wild wild grass is a wild thing, and it doesn't cost money, and with a little effort, it can be cut to a catty in two strokes.

Ruochuan was able to give twenty cents per catty based on his prophetic words, which of course could not be compared with the disaster relief materials.

The most important thing is to buy in large quantities, which is a lot of money for the yamen, and to dredge the river and strengthen the embankment, the yamen doesn't have so much money.

Only the village chief thought of Tong Tuo. Wild wild rice is a worthless thing, and it is wild. It is very good that it can be sold for a penny a catty.

They are taking advantage of the weak family and selling it at a high price!
But there are other people in the village. The villagers who have not made any money will become jealous when they see that they have made money. He is worried that they will cause trouble.

Now the yamen wants to collect wild shoots, even if it costs a penny and a catty, many villagers are very happy to cut and sell them, which also solves his troubles.

The village chief hurriedly said: "Caomin thanked the county magistrate on behalf of the villagers. Caomin must inform other villagers."

County magistrate Zhang nodded: "Also, if anyone harvests early this year, the land tax can be reduced by ten catties of grain per mu, but the land tax must be paid with this year's new grain, and the time limit is five days.

The villagers exploded upon hearing this!

"Lord County Magistrate, is this true? But the food in the fields is not yet mature! Can the tax payment be postponed for a few days?"

"That's right! A few days later, we will be able to harvest!"

Magistrate Zhang waved his hand, "No, only five days."

As for the flood, the county magistrate didn't say anything, and no one believed it.

Only if it is lured for profit will someone do it, even if not all the people are willing to harvest the rice in advance, but what he thinks is that some can be saved. If there is no flood, then the remaining part will be harvested when it is ripe. congratulations.

The villagers wanted to say something else, but Magistrate Zhang released another shocking news, which instantly diverted everyone's attention: "The Yamen is about to recruit people to dredge the river and strengthen the river embankments. If you are free, you can sign up. [-] One hundred cents a day, no food included."

Two hundred cents a day, this salary is too high! !
In the past, work like dredging the river and reinforcing the embankment was done by strong men, so how could they get paid?

So the villagers exploded again: "Master County Magistrate, is this true? I will sign up!"

"Master County Magistrate, two members of my family signed up!"

"Master County Magistrate, my two sons and I sign up!"

One by one, they are rushing to sign up. As for cutting wild bamboo shoots, there are still people at home, so I am not afraid that no one will cut them!

Five days is too short, and there is not much preparation that can be done. The county magistrate does not have much time to talk to everyone. He only tells everyone that what he said just now is true. The yamen will issue a notice soon. Then you can go to the Yamen to learn about the work.

After explaining, he asked the village chief to notify the village chiefs of several nearby villages, and then he left in a hurry.

The villagers were very excited, and hurriedly helped to load a thousand catties of wild bamboo shoots into the car, and then went home to tell the family the important news, arranged the work at home, and then went to the city to sign up to dredge the river.

The village head also bid farewell to the weak family members, and hurried to inform other people.

After the people in the village left, Mrs. Lei asked her granddaughter: "Xuanbao, what did you say to the county magistrate?"

The whole family looked at Xiuxuan, feeling that the sudden decrees issued by the county magistrate were related to Xuanbao.

"I told the county magistrate that I dreamed that there would be floods five days later."

There was a sudden silence in the courtyard for a second.

What came to everyone's mind was one sentence: The county magistrate must be a letter, right?

Ruo Jiang panicked: "I'm going to chase the county magistrate back!"

Jiang Shi nodded, almost crying: "You go!"

Xuan Bao is only a three-year-old child, how can she believe her dreams!
The county magistrate is crazy!

Ruozhou: "I'll go, I'll run fast!"

Mrs. Lei stopped everyone: "Stop!"

Everyone looked at her.

Mrs. Lei looked at Xuan Bao: "Is this true?"

Ruoxuan nodded: "Really."

Even though Mrs. Lei, who was ready, was affirmed, she panicked, but she quickly calmed down and made arrangements:
"Fourth and sixth, hurry up and go to the city to deliver wild bamboo shoots to the restaurant. The wild boar will not be sold today. By the way, you should inform the fifth that you have to go home in the next two days."

"Second daughter-in-law, fourth daughter-in-law, go back to your natal family and inform your in-laws, saying that the old man gave me a dream. When you go back, you will bring ten catties of meat and a basket of bamboo shoots back."

Jiang Shi was not happy when he heard it, how could he believe such a dream?Even her parents didn’t believe it!
Simply ridiculous!
The county magistrate even believed it, how absurd!
 Thank you for voting and rewarding babies, thank you for helping me solve the red envelope problem, I will try it today, hehe...
