PFC Chapter 139 Loyal Dog Series
Chapter 139 Loyal Dog Series
"My mother's way of controlling ministers has been taught to my son."
Xie Wuya was distributing seeds to a ten-year-old village girl. Hearing this, he nodded seriously.
Yan Ze raised his paw: "I know this. Dad taught me that kindness cannot lead an army, and kindness cannot govern a country."
Now that the regent is mentioned——
Xie Wuya asked curiously: "When will master come back?"
"almost."
Yan Ze blinked, looked in the direction of his mother, then leaned into Ya Bao's ear and lowered his voice and said, "I heard from the Queen Mother that my father wrote a letter to propose to my mother again."
Xie Wuya was stunned for a moment, then showed a smile of relief: "Master is awesome!"
Yan Ze chuckled and continued gossiping: "Mom must be shy. Seeing that dad is about to return to the court, he hid in Baidi City."
Xie Wuya couldn't help but be confused: "Why hide? Mother should also like the master, otherwise why would she spend money on the master?"
"Makes sense!"
Zebao held his chin and nodded, "Then I'll write a letter to dad."
Mu Tingxue didn't know that there was a little traitor in her family.
Finally, a farmer came to pick up tomato seeds and took eight bags at once.
"Don't you plant even an acre of rice field?"
After experiencing the previous dislike, the eldest princess was flattered that this eight-foot-tall, extremely strong and dark hunter had taken away so many tomato seeds at once.
"Do not."
Orion raised his head. He thought he was a rough guy in his twenties or thirties, but who knew that when he saw his face clearly, he was unexpectedly young, at most seventeen or eighteen, and he was dressed in linen.
He has a majestic appearance, a bold nose, a red forehead smear, and a small braid on the back of his head.
A nose with hanging gallbladder is very rare. It is a very wealthy and elegant nose.
"It's safer to grow half the food."
Mu Tingxue made sincere suggestions.
Orion said seriously: "I can hunt."
He carried a bow and a basket on his back.
As he spoke, he took out a lop-eared rabbit, a silver fox, and a white plush cub that looked a bit like a kitten from the basket. All three were alive, placed them on the table, and pushed them in front of her. .
Mu Tingxue was quite surprised, but she couldn't resist the temptation of furry hair. She stretched out her hand and stroked it gently: "This kitten is so soft."
"That's the white leopard's cub."
As he said that, he took out a whole white leopard skin from the basket and said, "This is its mother, given to His Highness."
Mu Tingxue: "..."
Then she saw the little leopard cub, whose eyes had not yet opened, rolling around on its mother's fur.
"Take it back. You have to risk your life when hunting, so it's hard to get. The tomato seeds are given for free, and there is no need to exchange them for anything."
She knew that hunters, the wild people in the mountains, had a simple temperament.
Lop-eared rabbits are timid and want to run away when they find an opportunity.Unfortunately, Zebao caught the rabbit by the tail.
Zebao pulled.
Then I was shocked,
"Mom! So the rabbit's tail is so long?"
"Yes, the rabbit's tail is about three inches long. Only one pompom can be seen, which is hidden." Mu Tingxue touched her son's head and taught him about the world of animals. "A big tail is easy to be discovered by natural enemies, so That’s how it evolved.”
Turn around.
I found that the person who sent the prey just now had disappeared.
Mu Tingxue described the appearance of the Orion boy to a mother-in-law who was waiting in line to receive the seeds.This kind of rural mother-in-law looks like a powerful person who gossips at the entrance of the village all day long. She knows everything about the nearby villages.
"Red forehead, pigtails? Your Highness, you are talking about Huangzhu, from Jinchi County." The mother-in-law immediately gave useful information, "The only one who can hunt tigers and leopards by himself is that boy."
"Huang Zhu? Why does it look like a Buddhist name?"
"He was raised by an old monk in a ruined temple on the mountain. Alas, he was also a poor child. His biological father was forced to do corvee labor by Chai Papi and was stoned to death. His mother also died of illness when he was seven years old. Huang Zhu probably wants to thank you, he doesn't like to talk much, and people in Jinchi County thought he was mute."
*. *. *
Five days passed by in a flash.
The eight county magistrates returned more than 20 acres of farmland in total, with an average of [-] acres per capita.
But Mu Tingxue had just arrived, so it was difficult to get things done, so he didn't pursue the matter further, which was considered as leaving a ray of hope for the powerful local squire.
A total of hundreds of thousands of acres of farmland have been returned to the people of Baidi City. As for her [-] boxes of tomato seeds, it is sad to say that only less than [-] boxes were given away.
The eldest princess stood high in the attic of the government office, watching the fireworks in the dim light of morning.
Looking at the rolling green mountains of Baidi City.
Suddenly, a great idea came to me——
"Have it!"
She wrote a banner on the best four-foot rice paper specially used in the imperial palace and hung it at the door of the government office.
[Harvest tomato fruits, one tael of silver and ten catties]
As the saying goes, those who know how to use money can make a fortune.
Mu Tingxue knew how important land and rice and flour were to farmers, but they were still afraid of poverty.If you want to promote tomato cultivation, you can't just paint a big picture, nor can you explain things that farmers don't understand. You have to be practical.
The farmers in Baidi City are going crazy!
One stone of rice on the market cost six hundred cents, but ten kilograms of rice cost only a few dozen cents.
And ten pounds of tomatoes can be sold for one tael of silver?
This gap is too big.
"Sow tomatoes now and they will bear fruit from June to August." Mu Tingxue actively mobilized everyone, "My price will be valid until the end of this year."
No matter how many tomatoes she harvests, she can sell them ten times the price if she transports them to Yundu, other places, or overseas.
Because it was the first year, only Baidi City was growing crabs and could eat the first bite of crabs.
"Each person and household can only receive tomato seeds needed for planting on one acre of land. Pay attention to reasonable and dense planting. The tomato yield per acre is expected to reach about [-] kilograms."
In modern times, the tomato yield per mu can reach [-] to [-] kilograms.In ancient times, there were no greenhouses, no pesticides, no advanced equipment, and the farmers had no planting experience for the first time, so they were greatly discouraged.
As soon as this news came out, those who received tomato seeds could line up from the entrance of the government office to outside the city gate!
In just one day, all [-] boxes of seeds were distributed.
"The yield per acre is three thousand jin, and one tael of silver is ten jin. So if we plant one acre of tomatoes, wouldn't we be able to exchange it for 300 taels of silver from Her Royal Highness the Princess?"
"That's right! I'm rich! I've never seen so much money in my life!"
"You were all unwilling to plant them at the beginning. No matter how much the eldest princess persuaded you, you wouldn't listen. At the beginning, you were given unlimited tomato seeds, but you didn't accept them."
"How do I remember that Huang Zhu received fifteen acres of tomato seeds?"
"Damn it! This kid has such a good life. He's made a lot of money! Wow, I'm so jealous."
……
Huangzhu got up before dawn and spent the whole morning planting, loosening the soil, sowing seeds, watering, and then went hunting for two hours. He hunted a deer and captured a white parrot alive.
He took the deer to the market and sold it.
When I arrived at Baidi City Government Office, I saw the son of Her Royal Highness the Princess, Young Master Xie Wuya, writing on the stone table under the tree.
He walked over and gave the white parrot to Ya Bao.
