Chapter 202
When the village chief woke up, his eyes were straightened, his expression was dull, and he didn't respond to the words of concern from others.
"Isn't the village head happy and stupid?"
"It's a bit like it. Look at the village head, it's scary!"
"Shall we go and call our aunt?"
As soon as the words fell, the village chief who was sitting on the ground burst into wild laughter.
Seeing Cheng Zhongqian muttering in his heart, isn't he really stupid?If I had known earlier, he would have reported less!
"Uncle Village Chief, are you alright?" Ling Bao's worried little face was wrinkled into a bitter gourd, madness is difficult to cure, she can't.
The village head waved his hand, and said proudly: "It's okay, what can I do, I'm fine!"
Everyone chattered again, the village head held Cheng Zhongqian's hand, his eyes burst out with joy: "Cheng Xiucai, thank you for willing to teach us this method!"
Cheng Zhongqian would not take credit for his daughter, he solemnly explained: "It's not me, it's Lingbao, she is willing to teach you, this method is also figured out by her."
There was an uproar, Lingbao? !
Facing the amazed gaze of the villagers, Lingbao smiled shyly and said shyly, "I, I was just lucky."
She was telling the truth, but the villagers thought she was being modest.What a good boy, he is not proud of doing such a good thing.
What do you think Cheng Xiucai raised? Lingbao used to be timid and clumsy, but after being in Cheng Xiucai's hands, he can read and write, learn medicine to save lives, and now even use fertilizer to double crop yields. It's all done!
They wanted to praise Lingbao, but due to the lack of language, they could only hold back the words "good boy" for a long time, but they took the trouble to say it over and over again, as if this could convey their gratitude.
When the tax officer came to register and inspect, his jaw almost dropped to the ground.
"Cheng Xiucai, what are you talking about? Your family is [-], [-], [-] stone!"
Cheng Zhongqian shook his head.
The tax official breathed a sigh of relief, so he just said, the children of Cheng Xiucai's family have not yet allocated land, how could there be [-] shi for the [-] mu owned by Cheng Xiucai alone.
"It's 81 stones." Cheng Zhongqian said.
After all, it is to be registered, and the numbers must be accurate.
Although he has [-] mu of land, he has only planted [-] mu of wheat, and the remaining [-] mu has been planted with beans and the like.
Tax officer: "."
Tax officer: "."
"How much?!" His throat cracked, sharp and thin, piercing people's ears hurt.
Lingbao shrunk his shoulders and covered his ears, goosebumps appeared on his arms, but he still thoughtfully repeated: "81 stones!"
The tax official was stunned, swallowed, and said that he wanted to check.
This number is too unbelievable, he dare not write it in the booklet without checking it!
Cheng Zhongqian took him to see that the granary was full of sacks, each sack was filled to the brim, the mouth was untied, and one could see at a glance that there was genuine wheat in it, but there was no misrepresentation.
"Do you believe it now?" said the surrounding villagers.
Since that day, Cheng's family has never been quiet. Every day, villagers say they want to see their granary. After going in, they order it by themselves, and then laugh silly. Today, the tax officer came to register, and it is even more impossible for them to be absent.
Because they like the way others have never seen the world!
The tax official nodded, and then ran out in a running posture that could be called fleeing, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.
"."
"No, why did he run away? What does this mean?"
Cheng Zhongqian said casually: "I guess I should go back and report the letter." Naturally, the county magistrate should know about such a big matter as soon as possible.
Seeing that Cheng Zhongqian and the others were about to leave, the villagers scratched their heads and said, "Cheng Xiucai, can we stay here for a while?"
Cheng Zhongqian laughed, and joked: "Just stay here, you can sleep here at night."
"I would like to, but my mother-in-law won't let me!"
Saying anything will disturb Cheng Xiucai's family, like bandits.
Cheng Zhongqian: "." Do you really have this idea?
Cheng Zhongqian and the others left, and Lingbao stayed to chat with them. The villagers patted her head curiously. How did her head grow, and why is she so smart!
the other side.
The tax official hurried back to the county seat, went to the county government office without stopping, grabbed a small official and asked, "Where is the magistrate?"
"Talk about things with Master and the others inside."
As soon as the words were finished, the tax official rushed in, ran to the study in a hurry, and shouted: "Master County, my subordinates have something urgent to report!"
In the study, Magistrate Shang and the master stopped talking and frowned, who doesn't know the rules?
He said to the master: "Okay, you go down, remember, when dealing with the people under King Qi, be smart."
"Yes."
The master opened the door to let the tax official come in, and the county magistrate Shang sipped his tea: "What's the matter?"
"Master of the county, Cheng Xiucai's family has grown 81 shi of wheat from [-] acres of land!" the tax official said passionately.
At that time, he, the person who came to report the letter, must have some rewards?
Regardless of his size, he is an official, but he has to save some money!
Magistrate Shang shook his hand, the teacup swayed, the tea in it poured out, and his robe was wet, but he didn't care. He put the teacup aside casually, stood up abruptly, and said sharply, "Are you right?"
"No, my subordinates have confirmed it with their own eyes!"
Shang County Magistrate hurriedly asked, "What about the other villages? Are there so many of them?"
The tax official shook his head: "No, only Cheng Xiucai's family is like this."
why is that?County magistrate Shang asked, but the tax official didn't know the reason, so he immediately reported the letter after confirming it, and he didn't have time to ask about the specific situation.
"Forget it, I'll go there in person!" County magistrate Shang said as he hurried back to the backyard to change into clean clothes, taking advantage of this gap, he asked someone to prepare the carriage.
The master who had just walked to the door was called back again. Several officials in the county government heard about this and all followed him. Fortunately, there was room for the carriage.
It was already afternoon when we arrived at Beihe Village.
Cheng Zhongqian bowed politely: "Shang County Magistrate." He then greeted other people in turn.
"Zhongqian doesn't need to be too polite."
"Presumably, Zhongqian, you already know why we are here?"
Cheng Zhongqian nodded and welcomed them in. The door of the granary opened slowly, and a reassuring smell of wheat came over his face.
Shang county magistrate specially brought a scale. After weighing it, it was indeed 81 stones, an average of four stones and two buckets per mu!
After calculating this figure, Magistrate Shang and the others gasped.
"Zhongqian, how did your family do this?!" Magistrate Shang asked eagerly.
Cheng Zhongqian said the fertilizer, and finally said: "My daughter figured it out."
Magistrate Shang looked at the little girl next to him, sighing and feeling sad for a moment. His son owed him a huge sum of 100 million taels, but Cheng Xiucai's daughter figured out a method of fertilizer that would benefit the country and the people. The difference between people , it is too big.
