Back To The Beginning Of Ming To Do Charity

Because he is not an agricultural expert, Lin Yuan only knows that sweet potatoes are annual crops, that is, they only mature once a year. They are usually sown in the three months of March, April and May, and harvested in October. Sweet potatoes are the 21st year of Wanli. The work that I entered was introduced from Fujian. It not only tastes good, but also adapts to barren land. It can be eaten raw or cooked, and the output is very large. In ancient times, there were "one acre and dozens of stones, and more than 20 species. Times".

As for potatoes, they are already growing seedlings, just in time for the end of November, and they can be harvested from January to March of the following year.

However, potatoes are planted in different regions. Planting time and harvest time are different in different places. Some places are planted in April and May and harvested in autumn.

Lin Yuan can only plant a small portion at the end of November. If it fails, plant it in April or May.

As for the remaining potatoes and sweet potatoes, they are kept in the cellar, and people are sent to see them every day, and they must be kept dry to avoid mold.

However, those old crops were more aware of these things than Lin Yuan, so Lin Yuan was basically a hand-handling shopkeeper except for occasional visits.

Farmers are old farmers who were found by Lin Yuan. Most of them are over forty years old. They have been serving crops almost from the time they can go to the ground. They have experience and have their own ways of removing insects or fertilizing. However, since they were called to the "Agricultural Bureau" by Lin Yuan, their exclusive methods have been made public.

They were asked to sort out all their experiences and talks, it didn't matter if they couldn't read words, someone remembered it.

Then they sent people to the village to do propaganda and teaching activities.

In the past, people did not have the conditions to promote some planting experience and technology, because the transportation was not developed and the villages were relatively closed. Now Lin Yuan is forcibly breaking the barriers between the villages, and each village has to send people to the demonstration village to learn the experience.

Lin Yuan will give rewards for learning well.

Lin Yuan also encourages the breeding industry. Most people choose to raise ducks, and few raise chickens and geese.

There is no feed at this time. Ducks can be released for the shortest time, 14 months for chickens, seven or eight months for geese, and shortest for ducks, which can be released for more than three months and four months.

Farmers have the wisdom of farmers, and they are all raising livestock. Of course, they have to choose to be effective in a short time.

No way, Lin Yuan can only gather people to build duck houses and chicken houses.

The geese are relatively free, so let's go free.

Since arriving in Taizhou and Gaoyou, Lin Yuan has no longer adopted the system of big pot rice. After all, the current situation is not so bad. When food reserves are sufficient, people owning private property will increase productivity.

Big pot of rice is more suitable for times of famine.

The big pot rice system was implemented in Zhuangzi before.

The way to promote people's productivity is to reward.

Just like choosing labor models during the famine years in my country, we set up labor models and encourage people to work hard.

Lin Yuan went to pick up the smallest sweet potatoes and potatoes, and after they were steamed, he asked a few henchmen to come over and eat them.

Except for Lin Yuan, everyone has never seen these two crops. Their enthusiasm for potatoes is not as high as for sweet potatoes. After all, sweet potatoes have a sweet taste. Now that there is basically no sweet food, they are even more attractive.

Lin Yuan asked them: "Do you know what the yield of these two items per mu?"

Several people guessed a few numbers separately, Lin Yuan smiled and shook his head: "There are dozens of stones per mu."

Both Yang Zian and Zhu Yuanzhang were born in chuang households. Although Zhu Yuanzhang is a cattle herd, his family also grows land. Naturally, he knows how terrifying this number is.

Lin Yuan also said: "They have very low environmental requirements, and they can be grown on barren land."

Song Shizhao said excitedly: "My boss, it can be seen that this is a foretaste of God!"

Lin Yuan was inexplicable: "What does it indicate?"

Song Shizhao: "These two, there are countless living people, it is the owner's credit. There are times two things, so why not worry about the world's heart! The owner! This is the east wind!"

Dongfeng?

I still have a whiteboard.

Lin Yuan knew that Song Shizhao was thinking of letting him be a **** stick again.

"Director Song, let's postpone it for now." Lin Yuan thinks that he has enough eyes. Two more crops with high yields per acre are easy to cultivate, but they attract more attention. He doesn't want to be here. When you haven't strengthened yourself, you've gotten an idea.

"When the first batch is harvested next year, it will be given to the people as seeds." Lin Yuan said.

Song Shizhao: "Exactly."

Yang Zian asked, "If it spreads out..."

Lin Yuan said calmly, "Then spread it out."

Everyone looked surprised.

But after eating it, it will be normal, yes, how can they forget that the person in front of them is still the bodhisattva-hearted person.

Maybe others are selfish in this world, but he won't.

Lin Yuan knew what they were thinking by looking at their expressions, but Lin Yuan would not expose it.

Let yourself keep a glorious image in their minds.

The first reason why I am willing to spread it out is that I can live more people, even if it’s the enemy’s people, the people are innocent, heroes in troubled times gather together, in addition to their own ambitions, they should have planned for the people, otherwise they should be leaders Why is it better to be a bandit?

The second is to gather people's hearts.

Just as Song Shizhao said, the people have always had milk and are their mothers. The world is far away from them. Most of them are ignorant and all they want is to live well.

They now know very little about Taizhou and Gaoyou, the most, that is, they know that these two places are occupied by the South Bodhisattva, and they heard that the people inside can eat.

Once the potatoes and sweet potatoes spread, not only the living people, but also gather people's hearts. When they become stronger, the benefits of these two things will not only increase the population.

Lin Yuan sometimes thinks that he hadn't been a good person in his previous life, and he still has a chance to be a good person in this life.

Although this good person is also full of selfishness, as long as the result is good, who can say that he is not a good person?

——

"It's about to start a fire, it's cold to death." Lin Basan rubbed his hands, breathed out a mouthful of white mist, wrapped his tweed clothes tightly, sat down on a low stool and asked his colleagues to raise the fire. There is not much charcoal allocated, so it is important to use it.

My colleague was Dong Liuwu. He was also a carpenter. He was lame on one leg, so he didn't move easily. He worked in the wood factory all day long, and he barely walked outside except for commuting.

Lin Basan was on fire while waiting for his colleagues to come to work.

Because of his quick work, he was promoted to director, and he also supervised the carpenter Bailai, who came every day earlier than others.

Dong Wuliu slowly took out the charcoal, and waited for the charcoal to burn before asking, "How did your team perform this month?"

When Lin Basan heard Dong Wuliu mentioning this, his face couldn't help but smile: "The target is completed."

Their work is very complicated. They have to make pallets, furniture, and some gadgets, and sometimes they have to build houses.

Lin Yuan told them to build a house without nails, but it was not a real house, but a scaled-down toy similar to a figure.

They had to make three in a month, and they couldn’t look the same. At first, they really didn’t know what to do. After all, they weren’t a descendant of Luban. Although Luban is the ancestor, ordinary carpenters can make a bed. , A screen and furniture are good, most of them have just heard of the tenon and tenon structure.

Lin Yuan was not able to search for high-level talents who really understood the tenon and tenon structure and had considerable research skills.

Only train them.

After all, the population is increasing, and the city must be expanded. The cost of brick and tile houses is too high, but the combined and spliced ​​tenon-and-mortise structure house can reduce the cost and construction time-just can’t ignite an open flame. Layers of soil and cement, there are patrols every night to ensure safety.

Lin Basan took a sip of hot water and said with feeling: "At this time last year, I was still digging grass roots to eat."

Dong Wuliu said, "Who is not? I was the leg that broke at that time."

The two looked at each other and both smiled.

Lin Basan also said with a look of longing: "I'm still going to have a baby with my mother-in-law, maybe I can take it next year."

"Then I have to come and drink the full moon wine at that time." Dong Wuliu, "Look at me, the shadow of the mother-in-law can't be seen, it's better for you."

Lin Basan laughed: "My parents ordered me."

There were three brothers in the family. He was the youngest, but they all died. He was the only one who survived.

When he was twelve years old, his parents used all the savings in the family to find him a daughter-in-law. The daughter-in-law's family was poor, and he wanted to keep the daughter-in-law at her natal until she was fourteen.

After all, a girl from a peasant household must learn to work when she can walk, she must be able to do farm work, and she must also be able to do housework, and take her younger siblings. Her family keeps her so that she can work for the family for a few more years.

Lin Basan was the first in his village to marry a daughter-in-law. Their village is not rich. There are so many old bachelors in their 20s and 30s. He still remembers that on the day he married his wife, he rarely put on new clothes and waited for the matchmaker to bring new ones. Wife comes here.

The daughter-in-law took a package with some old clothes inside. In order to make her more decent, her family wore new clothes when she went out.

She is not pretty, but she is a very good wife.

Married him for more than ten years and gave him three sons and a daughter.

Lin Basan thought of this, his eyes were a little moist, and the four children and two sons died.

The eldest son and the younger daughter survived, but they did not survive the trek.

His parents starved to death in order to save some food for their grandson.

But even so, the children failed to keep it.

He remembered that he buried his son and daughter, but when he saw it the next day, the soil where the child was buried was dug up and there was nothing underneath.

Lin Basan rushed to Dong Wuliu and said, "The better the days go by. When you save some money, you can find a matchmaker."

Dong Wuliu smiled: "I'm a lame, it's not easy to drag people down."

The two did not speak. At this age, the lame is unlikely to marry a daughter-in-law unless he is particularly rich.

The two chatted for a while, when someone came to work one after another, Lin Basan stood up and started to work with the people in his team.

In addition to their busyness, other people who are not in the wood factory are also very busy. Although winter is here, there is still a lot of work to be done. In order to have a better life next year, Lin Yuan asked people to expand the city, that is, to build the outer city. The first plan is the road. This doesn't require Lin Yuan to be busy. Someone will take care of these tasks. The businessmen are especially enthusiastic. They always want to shine wherever Lin Yuan can see.

Taizhou and Gaoyou were originally rich places. They not only brought back the craftsmen, but also the things outside.

No matter how chaotic the world is, it will not affect the merchants’ earning money, so Lin Yuan established a chamber of commerce for the merchants. Every member of the chamber of commerce can get an identity certificate. They must guarantee the market price, that is, the price of goods is determined by their purchasing power. Come order.

Lin Yuan did not squeeze their profit margins, but they must ensure that the set prices are within the acceptance range of the people, and there can be no people in the city who disturb prices.

Therefore, when foreign merchants come to do business, they must first go to the chamber of commerce to obtain a sales permit, and then they can do business after the prices are unified.

The benefit of unifying prices is that Lin Yuan, please know the population of Taizhou and Gaoyou. There are counts of the rice sold every month, which can be calculated more clearly based on the price, which can ensure that the population is calculated and compared. Close to the real data range.

Each month's changes can let Lin Yuan know clearly how many imaginary people have been added.

The businessmen didn't expect that they would have a chamber of commerce, and even the prices would be balanced by them. After they had booked, they would report to Lin Yuan, and Lin Yuan would be able to implement it after he nodded.

For the merchants, this is a strange feeling, as if they have unknowingly shouldered some kind of responsibility, and they dare not kill chickens and get eggs.

"I used to go out to do business and wanted to sell a grass for a golden price, but now I am afraid that the price is too high." to chat with.

Some people laughed: "Since we want to take root here, we have to balance it naturally, otherwise the people will be hollowed out, what should we do in the future?"

The prices they set now are all cheap things, such as food, oil and other necessities. As for luxury goods that can only be bought by the rich, Lin Yuan doesn't care about them, as long as they pay taxes.

"Unexpectedly, we have the present." The businessmen sighed, "When we went to do business before, the court couldn't wait to strip us off. It's better not to keep us even a pair of pants."

"South Bodhisattva likes businessmen like us. I can see that the South Bodhisattva values ​​us."

Some businessmen are also worried: "That is useful for us. What if we are useless in the future?"

"What are you afraid of, you ran in from the outside. When that happens, you can't get out?"

"Furthermore, don't you dare to fight against Nan Bodhisattva now? If you want to try Nan Bodhisattva's blade, you can try it, but I won't go anyway."

Now they have all set up houses in Gaoyou, took over their relatives and friends, settled in Gaoyou, and some even married.

They must all support Lin Yuan for their own sake.

After possessing a position that they had never dared to think of before, these businessmen were reluctant to move away.

Besides, the people like them very much. They bring many new things, which are all consumed by ordinary people.

Small profits but quick turnover, income is not necessarily lower than before, and it is also worry-free. They plan to go out once a year instead of twice a year as in previous years.

Zhou Fu and Xie Zichang are now the chairman and vice chairman of the Chamber of Commerce.

Zhou Fu became the chairman because of the two baskets of potatoes and sweet potatoes. Xie Zichang couldn't compare to this and became the vice chairman.

The two disliked each other, and after the subordinate relationship was set, the harmonious scene between the two was broken, and there must be one pinch each day.

——

After An Old Four took the family to Gaoyou, they were arranged to the staff apartment. Because there were four people, they were divided into two rooms and one living room. He thought that Lin Yuan would definitely let him do things, but waited here for more than two months. , Let alone Lin Yuan's shadow, even the shadow of any little leader hadn't seen it-he found himself being left behind.

The fourth old man, who had made up his mind to be full, became anxious.

He has nothing to do now. He does chores every day. Even his wife has begun to do the chores. With the softness he brings to support his life, he can't live this way forever, right?

The fourth Anniversary thinks that he is a capable person. He can't get reused from Fang Guozhen, so he should always get reused here, right? But Lin Yuan's attitude made him flustered again.

So he can only take out the gold and silver, find a way to board Song Shizhao's house, let Song Shizhao match him up.

It's a pity that Song Shizhao received the money and wanted the gifts, but he didn't say anything. He just said: "The boss thinks you are of great use, and Mr. An is in no hurry. There is always a time when you are called."

Just when the fourth child was desperate, Song Shizhao suddenly asked him to go to the Yamen with him.

Elder An didn't even eat any food. He waited at Song Shizhao's door early. His eyes lit up when he saw Song Shizhao, and he hurriedly greeted him: "Director Song is still the same as before, in good spirits."

Song Shizhao smiled at him, with a very good attitude: "The son of An is utterly praised, let's follow Song Moulu."

The fourth Anniversary didn't know what Lin Yuan wanted him to do, but he didn't think anything could trouble him.

Lin Yuan was sitting on a stone bench in the garden when he saw the fourth child. There was a pot of tea and a few cups on the stone table. However, because in winter, the garden appeared bald, revealing the muddy ground underneath. Disgusted, sitting indoors is a bit boring. Wearing a thick cotton coat, he waved to the fourth An, "Master An is here, sit down."

An Old Four and Song Shizhao both sat there.

"How is Young Master An?" Lin Yuan greeted him.

The fourth Anniversary wanted to say, "I have been idle lately", but opened his mouth and said, "Gaoyou is well organized under your jurisdiction. Everyone lives and works in peace and contentment. I don't know what Nan Bodhisattva can tell you? I would like to do my best. "

The smile on Lin Yuan's face was just right. It would neither make people feel alienated nor too close. No one would be willing to offend him unless he didn't want his head.

Lin Yuan smiled and said: "There is exactly one thing that needs to be done by Mr. An. This matter is of great importance. Apart from Mr. An, I can't think of a better candidate."

This was very nice, and the fourth Anniversary felt very comfortable listening to it. He quickly promised: "If you still ask the Nan Bodhisattva to come, you will not refuse."

Lin Yuan: "I heard that Young Master An is good at ventriloquism."

The fourth old man was a little complacent: "I can learn from both men and women, young and old, even if the bird calls, but I also keep it safe even if the bird can't tell the truth."

Lin Yuan smiled: "I believe this, so this matter can only be handed over to Young Master An."

"You also ask Mr. An to go to Changshu to find out the places where Changshu's armaments and defenses are weak for me. If Mr. An is willing, please lead the local people." Lin Yuan, "I will also send someone to protect Mr. An's safety."

The fourth old man didn't dare to refuse. He knew that if he refused, the best thing to end up was to live the same life as before, and the worst would be to beheaded by Lin Yuan.

For life and future, the fourth child must take a gamble.

If he wins, he has a place.

He lost his life alone, but he could save his parents and his wife.

"I am willing to send for the South Bodhisattva, and never hesitate to die." The fourth Anniversary knelt on the ground and gave a big gift to Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan waited for him to finish his ceremony before going up to help, and said warmly: "Young Master An is a rare talent, so please take care of him so that you and I can see each other soon."

Although the fourth old man knew that this was the scene, his heart was not untouched.

When he was in Huizhou, Fang Guozhen sent him to Gaoyou just to call the guards around him. He never said this to his face.

Fang Guozhen failed to completely subdue him, otherwise he would not be able to leave Huizhou as soon as his wife said.

Lin Yuan asked the people to send Ann fourth out of the house, and gave him two squads of troops by the way. They also picked up weak-looking soldiers, told him to pretend to be a caravan, and gave him a lot of operational funds. Food, and a few carts of gold and silver.

At that time, the fourth old man can use these things to open the doors of Changshu officials with money.

Officials are greedy and used to it, how could they let go of a fat sheep? In the face of profit, they can even put their heads on the waistband.

Besides, these local officials have been in Changshu almost all their lives, equivalent to the emperor of Changshu.

As long as they smashed open their door, the next thing would be much easier.

As for An Old Four's ventriloquism...well, Lin Yuan just casually found an excuse to praise him.

The fourth old man went home, his whole person was so excited.

The South Bodhisattva actually gave him so many things and there are so many people. Although he knows that those people are also to monitor him, but it is also real to protect him, and the chances of him coming back safely will be even greater.

Before Fang Guozhen left, he was only given some money, and that money was not even enough for him to spend too long.

This makes An Old Four feel valued.

This feeling of being valued also made him happy and encouraged, as if he was a capable, dignified and worthy talent in front of Lin Yuan.

An wife saw that he hadn't been asleep, and asked, "What's wrong? I don't see you in such a good spirit."

The fourth Anniversary whispered to his wife: "Miao Niang, I am going to develop."

An wife sighed helplessly: "Go to sleep."

The fourth child wanted to say something and share his excitement with his wife, but when he turned his head, he found that his wife was asleep.

No one shared his excitement, no one understood his mood, and he didn't dare to talk to others, so he could only sigh and roll over to sleep.

Ang squeezed his fists.

He is going to do something big.

What he seeks will be the entire Changshu.
