Wentang

Chapter 502
"Chang'an, we're back." On a huge ship, a group of teenagers looked at the tall and majestic Chang'an City and cheered happily.

"Haha...Chen Zhong, you are crying."

"I'm ashamed to say others, don't your eyes be red too."

"I got into the sand..."

"Look at Feng Yi, his hands are shaking."

"No, what's wrong with this boat, I can't stand up because of the sudden shaking, someone help me."

"The boat didn't shake, it's because your legs are weak."

"..."

The surrounding boatmen and boat guards looked at them with kindness, and they deserved respect.

Yes, these teenagers are the disciples of Longshoushan Academy who went to Lingnan for internship.

"The boat has docked, everyone, sit up and don't fall down." When they arrived at the ferry, the boatman yelled to remind him.

Then everyone on the ship quickly found a safe place to fix themselves.

The big ship is relatively stable when it is running, but it shakes a lot when it starts and stops, and people can be thrown off if they are not careful.

Soon, after a violent shaking, the ship docked in the middle of the river.

You ask why you listen to the center of the river instead of the pier?These ships are large grain transport ships with a very deep draft, and there is no way to dock at all. They can only dock in the center of the river, and then use small boats to transfer grain and goods to the shore.

Feng Yi, Chen Zhong and others came to the shore in a small boat, and seeing the familiar environment couldn't help but shed tears of joy again.

We are finally back, alive.

After being excited for a while, everyone calmed down.As the team leader, Feng Yi said: "Let's go, let's go back to the academy to see the dean and sir."

"Stop rambling, I can't wait, let's go." Gao Yang urged.

Feng Yi glared at him, decided not to be as knowledgeable as him, and said to everyone: "Let's go, I'll invite everyone to take a ride."

"Who cares?" Gao Yang said habitually.

Everyone chatted and laughed and walked forward. When they got out of the crowd and were about to look for the 'bus', they found that Gao Yang next to him patted him on the shoulder.

"Let go." Feng Yi said without turning his head.

"Look." Gao Yang did not reply this time, but said in a trembling tone.

Feng Yi looked up and looked forward, and suddenly found his teacher Yue Shan standing there waving at them.

He rubbed his eyes in disbelief, and finally confirmed that it was the teacher, and the tears could no longer be controlled.

A group of teenagers no longer cared about being reserved, they rushed over and surrounded him.

Yue Shan also looked at these students one by one, he turned black, but he also became stronger, especially his eyes showed a kind of gritty and indomitable brilliance.

It can be seen that this group of his students did not go to Lingnan for nothing, they have all grown up.

After looking at everyone, he said loudly: "Welcome home to our hero."

"Teacher, why are you here?" Feng Yi said with a sob at this moment.

"The hero is coming home, how can I not come to welcome you. It means that the academy is on holiday, otherwise I will bring my classmates to welcome you." Yue Shan said:

"You have done a great job in Lingnan, very good. Governor Yuwen and Governor Ning jointly sent a commendation, and the saints also praised you very much. The Academy is proud of you."

"You have also set an example for other students in the Academy, a good example. In the future, all students will learn from you and aim at you..."

Yue Shan praised these youngsters in his rare long speech, and they deserve the praise.

I kept praising them with high spirits, and basically forgot the sadness just now before stopping.

"Okay, let's not stand here and delay everyone, let's go home first."

"Oh, I'm home." Everyone cheered.

The crowd returned to the academy all the way in the carriage, and the gentlemen who had stayed at the school also came out to greet them one after another.We held a welcome ceremony for them together, and then gave everyone a day off to go home and be with their families.

The next day Feng Yi and Chen Zhong found Yue Shan together.

"Why don't you spend a few more days with your family?" Yue Shan asked.

"The days to come are still long, and they will be busy catching locusts in exchange for money and food during the day." Feng Yi said casually.

Chen Zhong also nodded in agreement.

Yue Shan shook his head secretly.It's not that I have any dissatisfaction with the two of them, but I feel that I am still young, I don't know what time waits for no one, I don't know what it means to have a child without a relative.

It's not just the two of them, most young people are like this, including Yue Shan in his previous life.But this kind of thing is useless unless you figure it out yourself.So he didn't say much, but said:
"That's fine, anyway, we're so close, it's like visiting."

"Tell me about your situation in Lingnan."

Feng Yi and Chen Zhong made eye contact, and it was no surprise that Feng Yi became the keynote speaker.Through the descriptions of the two, the report from the local yamen and Li Dewu's private letter, Yue Shan has a clearer understanding of the situation there.

Whether it is long or short, one year is enough to change many things.For example, the local slang people's sense of identity with Datang.

Over the past year, Datang has strictly abided by the agreement between the two parties, exempted the Liao people from all taxes and corvee, and hired people to work and pay all the money and food.Moreover, Liao people are treated the same as Tang people in terms of work, school and even being officials.

All means have effectively lowered their vigilance. Except for some of the most conservative primitive slang tribes who are still insisting on fighting, most of them have accepted the rule of Datang.

What really plays a decisive role is free medical care, which is the trump card to win the hearts of the people.Wherever the medical team went, the Liao tribe surrendered.Even the most stubborn tribes put down their guard and were willing to contact the imperial court.

After solving the problem of people's hearts, the rest is easy to handle. Hire people to build roads and roads, dig ditches and cultivate fields.

By mobilizing all available local forces, one million mu of land has been reclaimed in one year, half of which are paddy fields near water sources.

One-third of these fields are planted with sugar cane, after all, for sugar production.Two-thirds of what is grown is food.

As a traverser, Yueshan naturally knew that the Lingnan region was particularly suitable for growing rice, so he specifically mentioned rice when choosing food crops.

Speaking of it, although rice has been planted in China for more than 1 years, it was not fully popularized until the Song Dynasty.The reason is simple, China's land development is from north to south.

However, there are not many places suitable for growing rice in the north, and it is more troublesome to transform paddy fields, so rice cultivation is not widespread, and rice naturally cannot be popularized.

After the southern relocation of the Jin Dynasty and the southern relocation of the Song Dynasty, the south was gradually developed. With the large-scale cultivation of paddy fields in the south, rice naturally became popular.

　I don't know how to connect to the next plot, my head is big.
