Chapter 257
Magistrate Shen paced back and forth: "It's not that I don't believe you, it's that this number is too astonishing."
But if this is true, he doesn't need to urge him, so why should Mr. Wang, Mr. Xu and Mr. Sun not beg him for seeds?
Xiaoxiao said she could understand, and then she asked: "I wonder if my lord has been to Fuyuan Village recently. If you have been, have you visited my family's land?"
As a good county magistrate who loves the people like a child and cares about people's livelihood, County Magistrate Shen goes to the countryside from time to time, and he has indeed heard from the villagers of Fuyuan Village that Ning Fengnian is a good farmer, but he did not Think about how "good" it will be.
Xiaoxiao said to him: "Master Shen might as well go and have a look and make an estimate."
"Oh, by the way, my father hasn't realized this yet, so please keep quiet."
Could magistrate Shen not know?He is such a stable person!
Just now, County Magistrate Shen, who almost wanted to talk to his wife about it, commented on him in this way.
Pretentious in his heart, County Magistrate Shen didn't want to do anything, he just thought about the two acres of land of the Ning family, and after walking back and forth several times, he clapped his hands: "Go, go and have a look!"
As soon as she said go, everything in the carriage was ready-made, Xiaoxiao passed a message to her parents and brothers, saying that she would go home with the county magistrate first, and let them go back directly after shopping, and then left with the large army.
Although Ning Fengnian and the others were a little puzzled, the county magistrate was a trustworthy person, so they didn't think much about it, but Ning Ansheng asked his younger brother thoughtfully: "Where's Ah Yan?"
Recently, there are a lot of milk tea sellers imitating their shop on the street. Ning Anhui just bought a cup, and was choked by the nondescript, fishy and smelly smell after taking a sip. He kept poohing, and turned his head when he heard the elder brother speak. Stupidly asked: "What?"
Ning Ansheng watched his younger brother eat candied haws and meat buns, and then drank fake milk tea after eating meat buns. His face was stained by syrup sauce and milk tea. He didn't want to say anything. He let out a long sigh.
Ning An replied: ...
On the other side, Xiaoxiao was also on the way home listening to Rong Yan talk about what he and Mr. Shen had done these days.
They have long wanted to pass the news of the dam back to the capital, but the Yan family has many eyes and ears, and many attempts have failed, and they almost exposed themselves.
They are not afraid of going against the strict law, they are only afraid of making unnecessary sacrifices, afraid that after them, no one will dare to fight against their relatives for the sake of peace in the court, and they are afraid that the efforts of these people will be wasted in vain.
They were not discouraged when they found that the road was blocked, but shifted their focus from suing to saving lives.
The magistrate Shen’s digging of river channels is of course beneficial to the people, but more importantly, it is to minimize the risk of flooding. While allowing the people to dig the river channels, Magistrate Shen also arranged for people to build more aqueducts , It's just that these measures can only be implemented within the scope of Xijiang County, but there is no way to start in other places.
He also tried his best to persuade them, but with little success, coupled with the fact that the enemy and the enemy are unknown, the most dangerous upstream area has become the place with the least precautions.
However, once the dam is lost, the first to suffer is the upper reaches.
Although County Magistrate Shen is not an official in Luozhou, he also cares about the lives of the people elsewhere.
They were all prepared to expose the dam incident regardless of the consequences. Even if there was a civil uprising, it would be better than letting countless people die innocently.
At this time, Han Qing appeared.
God gave them a surprise that they were caught off guard, as long as Han Qing could be sent to the imperial court, the evidence in his hands was enough to make Yan Lv no longer able to stand up, so Rong Yan decided to take action himself.
Although he is not favored, he is still a prince after all, and he was born by a noble concubine. As long as he can return to the capital and enter the imperial city, Han Qing will definitely be able to meet the emperor.
County Magistrate Shen and the others did not pin all their hopes on the imperial court, because even if the emperor issued strict laws afterwards, the problem of the embankment could not be solved in three or two days.
If what Ning Xiaoxiao said is true, then this problem will be solved easily.
When they came to Fuyuan Village, County Magistrate Shen and his party in plain clothes went straight to the Ning family's land.
The growth of the Ning family's rice is really the most outstanding in the village, but Shen County Magistrate only thought that Ning Fengnian was a skilled cropper, and the harvest might be higher than others, but he never thought about the specifics of this "some" How much can be reached.
Today, he specially brought a special person in the yamen who is good at farming business to calculate, and the result he got made everyone confused for a long time.
"My lord! According to the villain's rough calculations, the harvest of these two acres of land can be at least [-] catties! This is not counting the weight that the millet will increase in the future!"
County magistrate Shen felt that he was hit on the head by a huge surprise: "How much did you say?"
The person who reported was even more excited than him, and he shouted directly: "One thousand six hundred catties, my lord! When it matures, the yield of each mu of these two acres of land will be around [-] catties! Oh my god, my lord, our lord! There has never been such a high yield of grain in Xia history!"
As an official in charge of farming, he couldn't wait to jump up to express his feelings, turned around and looked at Xiaoxiao with bright eyes, and he couldn't wait to ask: "How did this grow?"
On the way here, Xiaoxiao had already made up her mind: "Actually, when my family first separated, I couldn't get together the seeds of two acres of land. When my parents were running around, I met a strange old man at the foot of Dayan Mountain. He gave me the seeds. A bag of rice seed, said the yield of this rice is extremely high."
She said vividly: "I saw that the old man had a kind face, he didn't look like a bad person, so I asked the price, but he didn't take any money at all, he put down the rice seeds and left."
"Although I don't know how to farm, but after comparing this rice seed with the one at home, I felt that there was no difference, so... I used it to replace the seeds my parents got together."
The agricultural official couldn't help but comment: "You are really courageous, what if that person lied to you?"
Xiaoxiao said: "That man's eyes are clear and he is upright. Besides, my family is poor and poor, so he has no reason to lie to me. Since then, I have been paying attention to the germination of the rice seeds, and I am prepared to confess to my parents if something goes wrong."
The farm official asked again: "But that person is not related to you, why did he give you such good seeds?"
Xiaoxiao replied: "I also asked him this question, and he said——I hope there will be no more famine in the world."
Xiaoxiao's tone was firm: "Based on this sentence, I believe him, and the facts prove that I was right."
County magistrate Shen stopped the agricultural officer who wanted to speak again, and nodded emotionally: "This is a respectable old man. Has he left his name and address?"
Xiaoxiao shook her head: "He only asked me to call him Grandpa Yuan."
In the place where she lived in her previous life, there was a grandfather surnamed Yuan. He dedicated his life to the earth and farmland, and with his efforts, he successfully cultivated high-yield hybrid rice. He is the father of hybrid rice——Yuan Longping academician.
The rice seeds in Xiaoxiao's space are also derived from this. If anyone wants to thank the emergence of this new rice seed in the future, then they should thank Grandpa Yuan.
