While Xin Cai County was in a state of panic due to the announcement, a piece of good news came out from various restaurants, restaurants, and teahouses.
Prince Tong 'an wanted to' invest 'in Xin Cai County, and there were several steps to it. First, find a large amount of sesame seeds. When the weather warmed up a few days later, they would be planted in the gaps between the bean fields, or specially clear out a piece of land to plant them.
A large mill would be built south of the west bank of Ru River to harvest the sesame seeds and make sesame oil.
Second, if there were idle people in the family, they would be able to get a hundred chicks at one time. There would be people who would specially guide them to raise the chicks, and they would mainly focus on laying eggs. Feed could be bought from Baoxin County, and a pine flower egg production factory would be built diagonally opposite the sesame oil mill.
Third, Shuzhou would provide piglets and disinfection technology. Feed could also be bought from Baoxin County. A pig processing center would be built at the border between Xin Cai County and Baoxin County, and a leather tanning workshop would be set up next to it.
Fourth, a fertilizer processing plant would be built near Baoxin County and Xin Cai County to produce better fertilizer for the two counties. The two counties would need to transport rice stalks, wheat stalks, and other useless feces to the plant, and exchange them at a ratio of four to one.
The four points were spread out one after another. The money for the initial phase did not need to be paid by the people, as long as the technical personnel in charge of following the instructions did it seriously. The factory and workshop would also be ready to start construction in the near future.
Feng Changgong also heard about this and felt that Prince Tong 'an was really good. He was willing to help Xin Cai County with the construction. When the time came, more people would be able to earn money. At the same time, it would also attract people from the outside. Wouldn't that make Zhong County a county?
The people also thought so. Shuzhou was not too far away from here, and after hearing from the merchants, most of the people knew what Shuzhou was like now. It was a place where people could eat their fill every meal, where they could eat meat if they wanted to, where they could wear good clothes, and where the children could go to school to learn to read.
In order to know the situation in time, Old Man Pi and Old Man Yao also sent people to inquire about this news and quickly sent it to Boxin County to let Old Man Pi and the other two know.
Old Man Pi and the other two were also in the tourist area of the model today, but they were not in the mood to explain to others. They were worried that Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan would encounter trouble in Xincai County, so they absent-mindedly looked at the townsfolk and businessmen coming and going, as well as the nearby county officials who had applied for leave to study.
"Could it be because of that Feng guy?" Old Man Chang was holding a nine-section whip in his hand. He drank two bowls of sour plum soup with ice, but he still felt irritated. He asked Old Man Pi and Old Man Yao, who were squinting their eyes.
"If he dares, even if he dares, the yamen runners won't dare. Does he think that Cuckoo's reputation is fake? They should be back tomorrow. At most, they will be delayed on the road, but they can still reach the county the day after tomorrow. "
Old Man Bi was actually anxious as well. It had been less than two days since they last saw each other, but it felt like a long time had passed. He did not know whether he was saying those words for old man Zhang to hear or to console himself.
Old Man Yao took a large cattail leaf fan from the side and fanned it twice. He also said, "Don't say that they can't beat Xiao Bao and Cuckoo. Even if they show signs of fighting, no matter who is protecting them, they are finished. Cuckoo bullies others outside, and when she returns to Tang, she will be bullied by her own people. It's not good to hear."
"I told you two to send more people over, but you two didn't listen. If something really happens, don't talk about not being able to come back, even if you escape, I want to see if you two still have the face to stay in their house. Don't think about eating good food in the future."
Old Man Chang was most uncomfortable with the fact that he did not have any guards. If he wanted to do something, he had to tell Old Man Pi and Old Man Pi. It was inconvenient.
While the three old men were expressing their worries in different ways, the people they sent out came back on horseback. Perhaps because they rode too fast, the people who came back staggered a few steps forward before they could steady themselves. They told the three old men what they heard without any personal bias.
After listening to the people who came back, the three old men leaned back in their chairs at the same time. They were completely relieved.
Old Man Chang reached out to pour himself a sour plum drink. As he added ice, he said, "That person surnamed Feng really doesn't have good intentions. He even dares to put up a notice. Does he really think that the yamen is his? Xiao Bao and Cuckoo are usually very smart people. Why are they so stupid this time? The other party has already made a move against them, yet they are still kind enough to help the other party. This won't do. Quickly send someone to call those two brats back. Did they drink some bewitching soup? "
"You should eat less ice. If you fall sick, Xiao Bao and Cuckoo will be busy like last time. If you are really thirsty, drink some hot tea. It will cool you down when you sweat.
Feng Chang Gong still has some integrity. It's really hard for him to come up with this plan. Unfortunately, his intentions are not right. For his own personal gain, he put the people at a disadvantage. It's just a small trick. "
Old Man Pi stopped Old Man Chang and did not let him add more ice. He shook his head and said, "It's just a small trick.
After Old Man Yao ordered someone to make some hot tea, he also said, "It really is a small trick. It can't be compared to Xiao Bao and Cuckoo. This time, he will lose miserably."
"Say it clearly. Why can't I see it?" Old Man Chang reluctantly pushed the sour plum soup back. When someone served the tea, he said with dissatisfaction. He always felt that he could not catch up. Most of the time, he was like a fool and had to be explained by others.
"You are in charge of martial arts. You don't understand literature. This plan is proposed by Xiao Bao. It kills people without spilling blood. Feng Chang Gong and the other officials in the county want to promote Xincai County to an upper county like Sanshui County. They are about to succeed. However, in terms of economy, education, agriculture, industry, and commerce, they are not as good as Sanshui County. Their population is faster. As long as they have one population per county, it is very likely to pass given the current situation of the Tang Empire."
Old Man Pi said leisurely. Seeing that Old Man Chang was still at a loss, he continued, "If I hadn't been following Xiao Bao these years and been familiar with him, I wouldn't have guessed what he wants to do. He wants to promote Xincai County to an upper county right now and make up for what Xincai County lacks."
"Yes. Now it's farming and labor. I guess the next step will be education. As for the economy, it's simple. Once the people have a good life and the transportation of Ru River is convenient, it will improve very quickly. Even if the population is not enough, it will be an upper county, and it will be a very prosperous one.
Compared to Fanhua County and Jingji County, which are located between the capital and Luoyang, Xincai County is better. However, the officials in Xincai County can't take the credit. No matter who it is, they can only give the credit to Li Xun.
It won't be long before Xincai County is promoted, and Feng Changgong will leave his position. How can he stay in such a good place? Naturally, there will be people fighting for it. He can't be the provincial governor, right? Back then, it wasn't easy for Zhang Zhong to be promoted from a county magistrate to a provincial governor. He merged the surrounding counties into a province. Even if he made such a big contribution, he still has to leave and go to Lu Zhou. "
Old Man Pi and Old Man Pi had the same thoughts. Old Man Yao added on to Old Man Pi's words.
At this moment, the hot tea was served. Old Man Chang did not care about the others. He poured himself a big bowl and gulped it down without fear of the heat. He heaved a sigh of relief and asked, "That's not right. Xiao Bao and Cuckoo are going there to discuss the diversion of the water. They've squeezed out a bunch of people. Do you think the newcomer will agree to it?"
"Can they not agree to it? Look at the few things. The first one is really thinking for the sake of the local people. They can plant sesame seeds in the soybean fields. It's fresh. No, it's definitely not that simple. I don't understand this point at the moment. Let's just talk about the last three points. No matter which one it is, they're connecting the two counties.
If they don't divert the water, are they going to transport them by land? When the people think about this, they'll take the initiative to propose a river so that they can travel more conveniently. This is especially true for transporting feces. It won't be as dirty if they take the water route. "
Old Man Pi poured himself half a bowl of tea and blew on it gently as he explained to Old Man Chang.
When the three old men spoke up to this point, a head popped out from behind them. Her little face was filled with curiosity as she asked, "Grandpa Bi, why can't I understand? Are Sister Cuckoo and Brother Xiao Bao really better than that bad guy?"
"When did you arrive, Xiang 'er? Are you thirsty? Drink a bowl of sour plum soup. Come, Grandpa will tell you. Feng Changgong is that bad guy. He only thinks about his own benefits and doesn't care about the people at all. That's why he resorted to harming others to benefit himself. Such a person deserves to be killed.
Your Brother Xiao Bao is different. In terms of attacking methods, that bad guy is no match for your Brother Xiao Bao. But your Brother Xiao Bao won't use such methods on the people of Tang. Even if he wants to use them, your Sister Cuckoo won't agree to it.
When using tricks to attack the opponent, he doesn't forget to take the people into consideration. This is what it means to care about the people of Tang. Otherwise, your Brother Xiao Bao won't have to go through so much trouble to deal with Feng. Oh, that bad guy. If you change countries, you'll know how ruthless your Brother Xiao Bao is. To Tang, there's only one word to describe it: Kindness is like water. "
Old Man Pi wanted to carry Luo Xiang 'er over, but found that the weather was too hot. He had to move to the side and let Xiang' er sit on the armrest. He gave her a bowl of sour plum soup and explained to her.
Xiang 'er still didn't quite understand. She took the bowl and thanked him. "You mean very powerful, right? Xiang 'er knows what kindness is like water. Sister Cuckoo taught Xiang' er a few days ago. Kindness is like water. Water benefits all things but doesn't compete. It's good for people's evil, so it's similar to the Dao. … A man doesn't compete, so he doesn't care.
Sister also said that Brother Xiao Bao is like water, but it's not the Yellow River. It's the sea. It surges when it's calm. When it's good, it breeds all things. When it's evil, it turns the world upside down. Is the sea very powerful? Can it be compared to Brother Xiao Bao? "
"It's equally powerful." What else could Old Man Pi say? Wang Juan had already given her evaluation. The two of them were usually smiling, but once they fought, it was truly earth-shattering.
"Then I'll learn it well too. In the future, I'll be like Brother Xiao Bao and Sister Cuckoo. Let's see who dares to provoke me. I'll throw him into the sea to feed the fish and breed all things. Kindness, I'm kindness, the kind that's like water. "Xiang 'er' understood 'it very deeply.
Hearing Xiang 'er's words, Old Man Pi and the others began to worry for Xiao Bei. Xiao Bao and Cuckoo's education methods seemed to be different from what they had imagined.
Old Man Yao sighed helplessly. He said to the person beside him who was waiting for orders, "Go and tell the people from the Zhang Family and Wang Family about this. They'll know what to do."
