Chapter 38

After entering the field, Zhang Lan stood there stupidly. He did do farm work in his previous life, but he always helped his parents, and he did whatever was arranged for him, so he didn't know when to do what.

The man glanced at Zhang Lan and said, "If you want to do it, do it, if you don't do it, forget it, what are you doing standing there, if you don't do it, don't get in the way here."

Zhang Lan blushed slightly, and said a little embarrassedly, "Brother, what can I do?"

Originally, the man thought that Zhang Lan might have actually done farm work after hearing Zhang Lan's words, but he was a little taken aback when he heard Zhang Lan's words at this time, "Ah, so what, you can help deal with the weeds."

"Weed? Oh ok, leave it to me"

After Zhang Lan finished speaking, he got into the green wheat field, looking at this piece of wheat field, he had a headache again, it was all green, how could he find weeds.

But he uttered big words, and he couldn't lose face, so he gritted his teeth and started looking for drafts bit by bit.

As time went by, Zhang Lan also gradually got to know each other. Weeds were hoeed out one by one by him, and the sweat on his head was dripping down drop by drop. I can't even do the most basic farm work'

"Brother, let's take a break and drink some water first." The man handed Zhang Lan a big bowl.

Zhang Lan was also thirsty, and she drank it directly regardless of whether it was clean or poisonous.

"What's the name of the elder brother? Ang, I'm just looking for a name."

"My name is Zhao Ergou, what do you call my brother? I have been helping you for so long, and I still don't know your name."

"Brother Zhao can just call me Zhang San. By the way, Brother Zhao, I don't think our crops are growing very well. What's going on?"

After hearing Zhang Lan's words, Zhao Ergou sighed and said, "Hey, you don't know if you don't do farm work. What the crops are most afraid of is drought and floods. I don't know what God thinks now. There is not much rain. It’s not bad if it’s not dead.”

"There is no rain. Do you usually water the fields by carrying water?" Zhang Lan suddenly had some thoughts in her mind
"That's right. Some big families overturned their cars, but the river water has dropped, so it's useless. Fortunately, there is still some rain today, and there is more water in the well. Otherwise, I don't know how many people will starve to death."

Zhang Lan listened to Zhao Ergou's words, thought for a while, and said, "Brother Zhao, I have something to do today, so let's go first, and I will come to help you another day."

"Hey, okay, you go to work first"

Zhang Lan returned home, sitting in the study pondering, Dong Yu gently opened the door, holding a tray in his hand, and there was a bowl of steaming chicken soup on the tray.

"Why did my husband go to the study as soon as he came back, let's have a sip of chicken soup first"

Looking at Dong Yu's gentle eyes, Zhang Lan's heart also relaxed.He took a sip of the chicken soup, and the next moment he spit it out, and there was a slight sound.

"Husband, drink slowly, this is just boiled, it's very hot." Seeing Zhang Lan being scalded by the chicken soup, he quickly took out a handkerchief and carried him to wipe it off.

After being scalded, Zhang Lan's mood fell again, "Hey"

Seeing that her husband had something on his mind, Dong Yu asked, "Why is your husband bothered? Why don't you tell me, maybe Yu'er can help you."

Zhang Lan looked at Dong Yu, and still expressed the sorrow in her heart, "Food is the foundation of everything. Now that Luoyang is in drought, I was thinking of making some tools for water diversion and irrigation to make the people of Luoyang feel better, but I have no clue."

"Husband, why don't you ask Guo Jia and others, thinking alone is not as fast as thinking with more people."

Zhang Lan said with a wry smile, "It's my fault." He stood up, his expression much clearer, "Forget it, then I'll go to Feng Xiao first to see if there is any available talent."

Dong Yu smiled softly and said to Zhang Lan, "Husband come back early, Yu'er is waiting for you at home."

Zhang Lan walked up to Dong Yu and kissed her gently on the cheek, "Yu'er, then I'll go first."

"Um"

Along the way, Zhang Lan did not think about it. Seeing Guo Jia, Zhang Lan directly asked how the recruitment order was effective.

"My lord, the effect of the talent recruitment order is not obvious for the time being. Only a few dozen people came, most of them are from nearby counties and counties. Luoyang is the capital of the capital, and most of them are high-ranking officials. They disdain this, so the effect of the recruitment order It will take some time for it to show up. I have already arranged most of the people who will come, but one person came yesterday. I really can’t make up my mind. I was just about to discuss with the lord, but the lord came first.”

Hearing what Guo Jia said, Zhang Lan suddenly became curious. Zhang Lan is a person who is very good at delegating power, not because he is so good at employing people, but because he is lazy.But his laziness did not affect the talents of these people under his command, but gave them a lot of space. He was very relieved of Guo Jia's ability to handle affairs. Since Guo Jia didn't know how to arrange it, he must have a genius. The position given is too large and unconvincing, and the position given is too small and cannot correspond to its ability.

"Oh? Since someone can make Fengxiao even know how to arrange it, let's hear it."

"This man's name is Ma Jun and his name is Deheng. He is a Fufeng man. He happened to pass by here on the way and saw the recruitment order. He came to see him. He was a carpenter and brought some gadgets that he had never seen before. I know."

Zhang Lan nodded to indicate that he was listening, but after repeating the word Ma Jun after Guo Jia, he couldn't calm down. "Well, Ma Jun? Ma Jun! Wait a minute, Feng Xiao, you mean Ma Jun?" Holding Guo Jia's shoulders, how could Guo Jia's frail body bear the strength from Zhang Lan's hands, and he couldn't help but yelled "Ouch"

Hearing Guo Jia's wailing, Zhang Lan quickly withdrew her hand and asked eagerly, "Feng Xiao, are you okay? It's my fault. I was too excited and couldn't control my strength."

Guo Jia forced a smile and said, "My lord, I'm fine. Who is this Ma Jun? Since it makes the lord so excited"

Zhang Lan laughed loudly, as if she had forgotten the mistake she made just now, and then wanted to slap Guo Jia on the shoulder, but seeing Guo Jia's terrified eyes, she put her raised hand on her head in embarrassment Scratched.

"If you really want to sleep, someone will send you a pillow. This Ma Jun is a great talent. Come on, Feng Xiao, take me to see him first."

Seeing how excited Zhang Lan was, Guo Jia smiled wryly and said, "My lord, don't worry, I have arranged for him to live, but his personality is weird, let me tell you not to be disturbed by anyone during the day, he wants to make something until sunset before"

Zhang Lan was taken aback, "Ma Jun has this habit? ’ He secretly thought to himself, ‘Since it’s seeking talents, it’s natural to go with the flow and do it irreversibly, I’ll just wait’

Thinking of this, he said to Guo Jia, "Alright, when Ma Jun is free, you send someone to notify me, and I will come and meet him in person."

"Yes, my lord"
