Chapter 121 Quyuan
Gongsun Yan had known his reaction, so he hurriedly stopped him from kneeling down to cry and remonstrate.
"Can Manager Zhou go to the treasury to see it?"
"W-what?" Zhou Xing was confused by Gongsun Yan's sudden question.
Even if he is in charge, he will not often go to the treasury to check, not to mention that he has handed over all the treasury account books and keys to Zhao Xi, and Zhao Xi has also accepted the pledge, so he will never cause criticism again.
"How about we go to the treasury and have a look later?" Gongsun Yan decided to show off the newly purchased grain in the treasury.
Zhao Yun cooperated with Zhao Xi and repeated their old tricks to transport hundreds of carts of things from a valley.
Of course, these are not all the things Gongsun Yan bought in the system trading machine, but they are just to cover up others' eyes and find an excuse.
The real big deal was the discounted broken rice and corn that Gongsun Yan bought.
Especially corn, with a discounted price of 1000 material points per ton, Gongsun Yan, who currently has 150000 material points in his possession, simply bought it out and hoarded it all into the original Guzhu treasury under the cover of hundreds of trucks of materials.
If it weren't for the fact that the old treasury couldn't hold it, and the new treasury hadn't been built yet, she couldn't help but take advantage of the discount to hoard some more.
The newly-stocked grains now include half broken rice, old grains, beans and wheat, and half corn, which is enough to last for two or three months.
However, as long as half of the population in the village can be fed by the food provided by Gongsun Yan, Gongsun Yan will be able to earn 5 material points per person every day.
As long as she enters a virtuous cycle, she will not be short of a little rice from now on.
But she couldn't tell Zhou Xing about this situation.
I had no choice but to ask him to go and see for himself the newly added rice in the treasury, letting him know that they had a source of rice and no need to worry.
Knowing that he had submitted the key to the treasury, Gongsun Yan took out a piece of paper from the pile of paper on the right hand side, wrote a pass, stamped her small seal, and asked him to go and see the certificate for himself, which gave him some peace of mind. .
Naturally, the source of the newly arrived rice grains should be attributed to Gongsun Zan. Only when Zhao Xi takes full control of Guzhu Manor in the future, the coming and going of the supplies will be better concealed.
As for whether the story of Gongsun Zan's great secret treasure would spread many years later, she couldn't control it for the time being.
"Boss Zhou, you'd better come with me to the workshop first." Gongsun Yan stopped Zhou Xing, who was worried and was about to leave after receiving the note, and invited him to go to the workshop with him.
Arrangements have been made for Buqu and the shadow households in the village. Naturally, Gongsun Yan will not miss the hundreds of craftsmen households in the village.
These craftsmen with family skills are the basis for the normal operation of Wubao and the manor, and are a very important asset of every aristocratic family.
Therefore, unlike the tribes who were transferred to military households and the Yin households who would later be released to Lulong County to cultivate wasteland and farmland, Gongsun Yan did not intend to let these hundreds of craftsman households break away from the manor in the short term.
She did not change Zhou Xing's originally planned production area, but designated several courtyards on the edge of the main house as temporary workshops. She called in the skilled blacksmiths and carpenters from the village to learn how to make plowshares with Zhao Xi.
Hearing that Gongsun Yan was going to the workshop, Alan, who had been serving in the study, hurried out to arrange the chariot.
Gongsun Yan did not want to waste so much labor on the maintenance of the mansion.
Regardless of whether it is the maids and servants who sweep the house or the laborers who carry the chariot, they have been attending classes at night for many days to listen to Zhao Xi's enlightenment, which can be regarded as a good start.
Gongsun Yan planned not to disband for the time being. When they could write more words, he would hold a seven-day training class or something like that, and then select the best and send them to the grassroots level to serve as small managers at the lower level of the manufacturing workshop or market in the future.
The distance from the main courtyard to the workshop is not short. When Gongsun Yan rode a chariot with Zhou Xing to the workshop, Zhao Xizheng was leading a few craftsmen to experiment with the curved shaft plow in the yard.
Along the way, the garden is full of beautiful scenery of spring revival.
When entering the workshop, the garden was bare, and the flowers and trees originally planted were uprooted and piled aside, presumably with the intention of planting them elsewhere.
The messy and bare look of the garden made Zhou Xingyi close his eyes in distress.
Zhao Xi was dressed in short brown clothes, with his trousers rolled up, and he was talking softly to two craftsmen with old faces and uncertain ages.
The two craftsmen stood with their hands tied, listening attentively and with very respectful expressions, nodding from time to time.
Nowadays, no one in the village knows that the new chief steward, Zhao Xi, is a learned and talented man who is truly educated and capable.
No matter who you are or how humble your status is, he never values himself and teaches you equally.
Hearing greetings from the guards outside the door, Zhao Xi looked up and saw Gongsun Yan coming in with Alan and Zhou Xingxing. "Little lady." Zhao Xi twirled his beard with his hands still stained with dirt, smiled, and greeted Gongsun Yan first, looking at Gongsun Yan's expression that was kind and loving like an elder.
In recent days, as he gets along with everyone, his personality simulation has become smoother and smoother, and he no longer feels stiff like before.
Even occasionally, Zhao Xi and Zhao Yun met while they were busy, and Zhao Xi would really act like an uncle, telling Zhao Yun to eat well no matter how busy he was, and read less when the light was dark to avoid hurting his eyes.
Judging from Zhao Yun's expression at that time, it was obvious that he had forgotten Zhao Xi's original strange and unknown origin, and he really respected him like an uncle.
The same goes for Gongsun Yan, who is both a loyal steward and a caring elder, with just the right amount of discretion.
If Gongsun Yan's system could not check his identity, she would have almost forgotten that Zhao Xi was not a real person.
"Uncle Zhao." Seeing him greeting him, Gongsun Yan responded with a smile.
After greeting Gongsun Yan, Zhao Xi greeted Zhou Xing, and even Alan greeted him, looking like a social butterfly, not as stiff as he was on the first day.
"Mr. Zhao." Compared with Gongsun Yan's slightly casual response, Zhou Xing and Alan's responses were much more formal. For them, Zhao Xi was a true mentor.
The two craftsmen who were listening to Zhao Xi's explanation also knew that the person in front of them was the host's wife, and they lowered their heads in greeting with some fear.
"Uncle Zhao, how are you two master craftsmen doing with the Quyuan plow?"
In fact, Gongsun Yan can check the production progress of Quyuanli from the system.
But recently, facing Zhao Xi, who is becoming more and more natural and humane, Gongsun Yan is trying to communicate with him beyond the system as much as possible.
She once asked Zhao Xi if he would dream at night?
Zhao Xi's answer made her froze in place, unable to recover for a long time.
He said that he dreamed of the old house in Changshan's hometown, his father and brother, and the appearance of Zhao Yun when he was a child.
Gongsun Yan had goosebumps all over her body at that time. At that time, she really felt that she might have created something with a random setting.
She also understood why the user instructions emphasized that the system steward was not a real person, and warned the system not to place undue expectations on the simulated personality of the system steward.
In the end she decided to ignore user information, which sometimes didn't matter to her whether it was true or not.
From that day on, she tried not to use system control anymore, and instead asked and communicated normally like she does now.
"Little lady, please look!"
A somewhat proud smile appeared on Zhao Xi's face, and he pointed at the curved plow that fell in the soil of the garden.
As early as the Spring and Autumn Period, there were already plows pulled by oxen. In the Western Han Dynasty, plows were developed based on the predecessors. However, the plows at this time were mostly coupled plows with two oxen and one plow.
The curved shaft plow of the Tang Dynasty, which had a lighter and more flexible plowshare, appeared in advance in the Han Dynasty due to the wings of butterflies.
Don't forget that just changing the long shaft to a short shaft and a curved shaft can greatly free up animal power.
Lone Bamboo Manor is located in the Northland. However, the Northland mostly has a nomadic economy due to the influence of climate and environment.
However, there is still a shortage of oxen for cultivating and pulling plows, so horses are often used instead of oxen.
Due to the breed problem of the horse, their transport capacity and endurance are not as good as those of the plowing oxen. Four horses are often needed to replace a straight-shaft plow for spring plowing.
Horses are relatively delicate and strong-tempered among livestock, so spring plowing has always been a problem in the Northland.
But with the Quyuan plow, the situation will be different. It will spread to the whole Han Dynasty, and the farming environment will be greatly improved.
Moreover, the curved shaft plow is only the first project of the workshop. Later, the hanging shaft plow will still need to be modified according to the characteristics of the animal power in the village.
By then, with the credibility that high-yielding sweet potatoes have brought to Gongsunyan, promoting new agricultural tools and crops such as corn will no longer be as difficult as it is now.
