The Reborn Wife is Farming

Chapter 819: Whistleblower

"Still investigating, it will take a few days to thoroughly investigate," Liu Qing said wearily: "However, judging from the current situation, although the scope involved is wide, the number of people is not very large. Forget about the masters in the yamen About one in thirty-five households."

2.9% or so, this probability seems small, but if it is based on the whole of Lingnan, this figure is not small, not to mention, it is not known whether other places besides Lingnan are also affected.

"Princess, I don't know if I have found an alternative seed source, and whether it is in line with the climate in Lingnan. If the yield is okay, I can plant this rice seed this year. Otherwise, I have to sort it out and replant it now. I'm afraid I will miss the spring plowing. "

Mu Yangling's face turned cold, and said: "The rice seeds are good rice seeds, and they are rice seeds from Si County, a famous land of fish and rice in the south of the Yangtze River."

"What?" Liu Qing turned pale with shock, "From Si County?"

Si County is rich in water and soil, and seven out of ten mu are high-quality fields. The dense water network makes Si County not lack of water even in dry seasons, so the rice there is fragrant and fishy. The rice in Si County is famous for its fragrance. The rice that is milled can be called top grade, but similarly, this kind of rice is also very picky about water and soil. Except for Sixian and the Jiangnan water towns that are also rich in water and soil, it is impossible to grow it in other places.

Even in Lin'an City, not many people would dare to plant rice seeds from Si County, let alone Lingnan, which is poor in water and soil.

Liu Qing frowned in distress, "Who is this, such a big hand? Those rice seeds are not cheap."

Mu Yangling sneered, "So this person is hard to find, but easy to find."

Because of carrying water and soil, the seeds left in Si County are limited every year. It is not easy for this person to buy so many seeds. Although the farmers in Lingnan cannot recognize the type of seeds, they will not mistake the quality and year of the seeds. So this kind of seed is reserved for planting last year.

If you want to transfer so many seeds to Lingnan, you will not leave some flaws.

"We have the prince and the Duke of the country responsible for the investigation. Our top priority is to minimize the loss. I have asked Fengshou Grain Shop to prepare other seeds. Later, you will inform the nearby farmers to take the receipt issued by your government. If you come to pick them up, if you are far away, your yamen will take the seeds and distribute them yourself, and replant them quickly before it is too late.

"The No. 1 upland rice seed is not enough, so we can plant other rice, corn, or peanuts. It doesn't matter what kind, we must replace all the rice seeds in Si County." Mu Yangling rubbed his forehead and said "Otherwise, once there is a drought in summer, all the fields planted with rice in Si County will probably die of drought."

Liu Qing nodded in response, and sighed: "This year's cultivation and harvest will be polarized. Most of the people will plant seedlings early to irrigate and harvest, and the rest will have to wait for about half a month. At that time, I don't know how many people will grow. In the end, if the crops are not replanted, those affected farmers will probably sell their fields or their children after collecting taxes after the autumn harvest.”

Mu Yangling's heart moved, and when Qi Haoran came back at night, he asked suspiciously: "What do you think this person wants to do? He doesn't want Da Qi to have a good time, and he deliberately sabotages it?"

"What else can there be besides this?" Qi Haoran was so tired that he lay on the bed, asked Mu Yangling to press his shoulders and back, and said, "Brother sent me a letter, saying that there is nothing abnormal in Jiangnan, but Tongchuan Mansion and other central areas There are also such phenomena in the region, but the situation is not like in the eyes of the Lingnan side, and the big brother in the Northland has also been investigated, and nothing is wrong."

"Jiangnan is under the emperor's feet. It is understandable that they can't move their hands and feet, and the north has always been the territory of the eldest brother, and they have no holes to drill. However, Lingnan and Tongchuan were the places where the rebellion was the most serious. Now they have recovered. It's also the slowest." Mu Yangling casually squeezed his shoulders for him, leaned on his shoulders and said, "I always feel that their purpose is more than that. For example, we have been operating in Lingnan for three years. We have such a big movement. How could there be no movement at all?"

You know, apart from the army, Fan Zijin's business firm has also opened in Lingnan, and those shops are their secret eyeliner.

"unless……"

"Unless someone covers them," Qi Haoran's eyes flashed coldly, he turned over and looked straight at his wife and said, "Lingnan!"

Those who can cover them naturally have certain influence in Lingnan. Qi Haoran instantly listed several candidates in his mind. The first one was the prefectures in Lingnan, but he quickly rejected it, because in the past two or three years, officials from Lingnan prefectures came to Qi Haoran brothers transferred some of the middle and lower officials, and then arranged some, it was not an iron plate at all.

In addition, he can still guarantee the character of several loyal ministers and direct ministers.

Is that a Hmong?

Or local gentry in Lingnan?

Qi Haoran frowned tightly, and said: "This matter has to be investigated again, but if you dare to touch my head, I will definitely make it easier for them."

At this time, in Juzhou Mansion, there were indeed a few families who were having a hard time. Finally, taking advantage of a family's birthday banquet, several people got together and complained to each other about their misbehavior.

Qian Shishen said with a livid face: "Okay, stop complaining to each other, who would have expected that a dignified princess would go to the farm to see the crops, dig the seeds herself, and even recognize the seeds?"

"Then what brother Qian thinks we should do at this time? The matter has been brought to light..." Wei Shishen's face turned slightly pale when he thought of King Rong's iron and blood methods.

Qian Shishen glanced at him, and said to everyone: "What does this matter have to do with us? We are not even officials in the court, so we do what we should do on weekdays. How do we know the affairs of the court?"

"Braking with silence?" Tan Squire asked softly.

Qian Shishen showed an appreciative smile, and several of them whispered to each other for a while, and this was the only way to go.

But Wei Shishen always felt unsafe, and said in a low voice: Don't forget, there are a lot of upland rice No. 1 seeds in our current field. "

Qian Shishen snorted coldly and said: "Now the seedlings are two inches high, and the seeds have grown out of shape early. She can still recognize them? After a while, the long-term workers will be asked to transplant the seedlings, and the seeds will disappear. The seedlings in the world Don't they all look like that? Is it possible that she can still recognize it?"

The few people present were landlords for several generations, so they naturally didn't know about farming. They saw that they were all green seedlings, and there was no difference at all.

However, in the eyes of those who know how to farm, the seedlings can also be distinguished.

And Mu Yangling, who used to be unable to tell the difference between wheat and millet seedlings, could naturally tell the difference.

Before Mu Yangling suspected these people, the tenants serving the rice fields became suspicious first, and some bold and cautious people secretly ran to the Rongjun Palace to inform them.

At that time, Mu Yangling was still having breakfast, and when she heard the words, she glanced at the sky outside. She was groggy, but she looked around four o'clock in the morning. She got up early because she had to go to inspect the warehouse of the grain store in advance. At this time, there was someone door?

"Informant? Inform what secret?"

"The slave doesn't know, no matter how much you ask him, he won't tell you. You have to meet the prince or princess in person before you will tell."
