Chapter 448

It turned out that he was the one who was wronged, and the emperor went to look for Rong Yan sullenly.

It can't be seen that this unobtrusive son is actually a kind of lover. He has not asked about Rong Yan's life for many years, but now it is really difficult to open his mouth, so he just asked for a long time.

"What happened to the book that girl Xiao Ning bought?"

Rong Yan answered calmly: "I took it to Mr. Shen."

He said: "My son is about to report to my father, my son plans to order some ironware."

"It has nothing to do with weapons, but I want to make more new farm tools."

The emperor raised his eyebrows, firstly because Rong Yan mentioned the word "weapon" so bluntly, and secondly because he was serious about making new farm tools.

Ironware was strictly controlled by the imperial court, but it would not be a big problem if it was used in a small amount. He would specifically mention to himself that there would be a lot of it to be made.

For a while, the emperor felt that he should have a good chat with his son about the truth of love between children and shortness of breath.

But Rong Yan said: "I tried to make a batch earlier, and Xiaoxiao gave it to her adoptive father, saying that it can at least double the work efficiency."

The emperor doubted his ears: "How much did you say?"

Rong Yan repeated affirmatively: "Double."

It is double, not [-]%.

The emperor felt that this matter had to be taken seriously, so he decisively but cheerfully decided to leave the palace in micro-clothes.

The place to go is not far away, it is a piece of farmland in the suburbs of Beijing that Xiaoxiao bought and handed over to Ning Fengnian.

Most of the things planted in the fields are also pragmatic. There are stretches of paddy fields intertwined with sweet potatoes and soybeans. Some seedlings are scattered all over the place, and some are windward rockers.

The man who looked like Zhuangtou was explaining to the long-term workers how to use the new farm tools. The emperor straightened his clothes and stepped forward to talk.

"Brother, what is this?"

Ning Fengnian, who had just arrived not long ago, didn't know the identity of the person in front of him, so he replied cheerfully: "My brother can ask the right person, now I am the only one who knows about the whole capital."

"This is called a curved shaft plow. Compared with the straight shaft plow we used in the past, it saves effort to lift the soil, turns more flexibly, and is much more efficient!"

"This is a columbine cart. Use it to sow seeds. One ox pulls the columbine, and one person supports the columbine. The seeds are stored in the columbine bucket, which is connected to the hollow columbine foot. When walking and shaking, the seeds are planted. It can simultaneously complete ditching. , Sowing, and re-soiling three processes. Sowing three rows at a time, the row spacing is the same, and the seeds are evenly planted, which saves much time and effort compared with our own hands."

"Also, this is..."

Because he was too excited, Ning Fengnian didn't care about the stranger who had just said a word, and he talked endlessly when he mentioned the farm tools: "Did you see the things that are being erected by the river?"

"That's called a waterwheel. From now on, you can rely on it to scoop up water for irrigation. Brother, do you want to go and have a look? The waterwheel will move by itself!"

The long worker at the side couldn't help laughing: "Uncle Ning, are you planning to take everyone in the capital to see the waterwheel? How many of them are there?"

Ning Fengnian scratched his head with pride on his simple and honest face.

"Good stuff, naturally everyone should see it!"

The emperor asked with great interest: "Brother, aren't you afraid that others will learn from you?"

Ning Fengnian waved his hands generously and said: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, just learn it, but we are afraid that everyone will not learn it."

"Xiaoxiao said that if farmers all over Daxia can use these new farm tools, she will be too happy!"

"Did Princess Xiao Ning say that?"

"At the beginning, when I heard that the princess spent 500 taels of silver to buy an old book, I thought she must have been cheated. I didn't expect that the 500 taels would benefit all of us in the end. It's really worth the money!"

Isn't that right, the emperor is also in a happy mood, thinking that it's not a big deal for his son to take a fancy to Xiao Ning.

She can cook, write poems, and even be a human being. This daughter-in-law is very good.

The emperor who returned to the palace was very satisfied with what he had seen during this trip, so he immediately approved the iron that Rong Yan wanted, and actively urged to implement it quickly. He also wanted to see the new agricultural tools distributed to more farmers as soon as possible.

Xiaoxiao finally managed to lure Ning Fengnian and the Song family to the capital.

Thinking about it, Ning Ansheng and Ning Anhui both needed to stay in the capital for a long time, and the two of them brought their youngest son who was only a few months old to stay in Fuyuan Village, which was really boring.

Ning Fengnian cultivated the land and planted the honor of Guangzong Yaozu, and he also felt that he should not be confined to Fuyuan Village or Xijiang County for the rest of his life. He wanted to see a bigger world, or, as his daughter said, plant more land , collect more food, and become a better self.

Before they came to the capital, the two brothers Ning Ansheng and Ning Anhui had already prepared the residence of their parents and brother, of course, the help of Xiaoxiao and Rong Yan was indispensable.

Both parties are not hypocritical people, one side sincerely helps, and the other side accepts the kindness with peace of mind. The Ning family's house is not far from the General's Mansion. Although the couple think this house must be expensive, they have seen the shop that Ning Ansheng showed them. Bill, and thinking about the convenience of being close to Xiaoxiao, I don't think it is unacceptable.

Thinking about the past, it is really like a dream. I think back then when I had to tighten my belt when I ate bran and swallow vegetables, but now in the capital where every inch of land is expensive, no one in the whole family thinks it is wrong to set up a yard.

The emperor is a very pragmatic person. Ning Fengnian's contribution to the new rice was rewarded to the Ning family with practical things as much as possible. Therefore, although they are not as good as those rich families who have accumulated for generations, they don't need to spend money anymore. When the hands are tied.

The capital city is not used to people who praise the high and depress the low, so there are also people who come to the door with some dark thoughts in the name of visiting, ready to laugh at these country bumpkins to satisfy their ridiculous vanity.

From their point of view, even if the Ning family was favored by His Majesty the Emperor due to their shit luck, it would be a big deal now that they have a bit of stinky money. The most important thing in the capital is rich people. That's all.

The money is not too much, the family background is not at all, and the taste is even more...

As soon as the uninvited guests who were thinking like this stepped through the threshold, they saw pots of flowers and plants with suspicious identities in the yard.

The first thing the Ning family did after they moved into their new home was to plant flowers and grass.

Xiaoxiao specially reminded them to bring the flowers and plants planted in the yard of their home in Fuyuan Village to the capital, and they would be escorted by the space soil specially replaced by Xiaoxiao. .

Xiaoxiao didn't specifically tell the Ning family their value, so in their opinion, these precious varieties that have a price but no market are no different from the vegetables and radishes in the yard.

Anyway, people who came here saw them throwing wonderful chrysanthemums with flowers bigger than a child's palm casually on the ground, and there were many dried chrysanthemums that looked like them drying in the yard.

They swallowed their saliva and asked, "Dare you ask who these flowers are?"

After giving birth, Mrs. Song, who was much plumper, replied with a smile: "It was a coincidence. The child said that it would look good in the yard, and the tea would be delicious, so I kept planting it."

"Mom, what about this?"

While talking, Ning An, who couldn't sit still in the room, held up two radish-like things: "My sister said that I can't grow these by myself, so I have to deal with them quickly."
