Chapter 149. 147. Auspiciousness

Chapter 149.

Aunt Zhao, who had nothing to do, strolled to the square in Zhongjie.

When she arrived, hundreds of people had already gathered here.People who are free in the city gather here to watch the excitement.

Babbling and singing on the stage.

"Could it be that the field of this Renjiazhuang is a cornucopia?"

"Where did the cornucopia come from? The blue sky came out of Qingcheng Town, and the fairy seeds were given to the mortal world... Yay, eight hundred catties from one mu of land, and the treasure land of Qingcheng is auspicious~"

Aunt Zhao only saw a mass of black human heads, even the walls were covered with people, and there were people hanging from the trees.

There is no way to see what is being performed on the stage.

But the voice can be heard quite clearly, and I don't know how a human voice can be so loud and spread so far.

Relying on her great strength, she found a space to squeeze forward. Under the eyes of the white eyes, she squeezed all the way to the front and saw the performance on the stage.

There were tall sorghum-like things on the stage, and the actor in the front was on the high stage, holding up a yellow thing and singing.

"I heard yesterday that the field at Renjiazhuang was just harvested a few days ago, and there are more than 800 catties of grain per mu! It's all sung in this play, and it seems to be true!"

"How is it possible? What kind of land can grow [-] catties of grain? Is this land made of gold or silver?"

Seeing someone questioning, a man in a green shirt said, "Don't believe me, I really went to Renjiazhuang a few days ago. It's a kind of grain called 'corn'. I paid two pennies to buy it." Ordered one, roasted and eaten sweet and delicious!
I heard that it can also be made into corn cakes and polenta.

This is a staple food that can fill your stomach!
And the highest yield is not only [-] catties, in some fields even a mu of corn weighed thousands of catties. "

Some people have become Ren Pingsheng's supporters, and they support it with all their strength: "This Renjiazhuang is the mayor's property, and the mayor said that it is the grain seeds.

What's wrong with a person like the mayor who can produce a thousand catties of grain per mu? "

The gap between singing and opera on stage has been discussed below.

Many people can't believe the content of the drama.

Since ancient times, who has heard of a thousand catties of grain per mu?

"After listening to the play in a while, if anyone is interested in 'corn', you can stay for a while. We boiled corn, and you can buy it voluntarily.

Sweet and savory, absolutely delicious. "

While the people in the audience were still discussing, someone came up to speak and immediately attracted everyone's attention.

After Qixinshe's performance was over, a large pot was put on the shelf, and the sweet smell of corn came out of it, and got into people's noses.

Two cents a piece of corn was in my hand, I took a bite and chewed it in my mouth, it was sweet and glutinous, and I felt a strong sense of fullness after eating it.

“Really a new staple food!”

"It's worthy of the name 'corn', it's better than rice."

"Auspicious!"

After eating the corn, most people really believed what was in the drama just now.

Immediately excited.

Excitement is contagious, but in a short time, the people in the entire square went crazy!

They cheered, as if they saw the day when they would no longer be hungry.

Thousands of catties of grain per mu sounded like a myth in this era when most people couldn't eat enough and starved to death.

And when such a myth became a reality, the name of auspiciousness, under a little guidance, began to explode on the calm water like a depth bomb from that night, spreading in a very short period of time out.

All of a sudden, the name of Master Qingtian in Qingcheng Town was praised to the extreme.Ren Pingsheng's prestige, at least in Qingshui County, has far surpassed the county magistrate Huang Youcai.

In the next few days, Ren Nuan, the chief of the publicity department, took Qixinshe, and Hu Chun, the chief of the agricultural department, took a cart of corn, and traveled all over the villages in Qingcheng Town to build public opinion.

It paved the way for Ren Pingsheng's reform plan of good seeds.

In Qingshui County, there are also sketches and story books adapted by Qixinshe, which are performed in teahouses, brothels, tile houses, and market towns.

Countless people have set their sights on the new crop of "corn".

At the beginning of August, the sun is at its craziest, swaying boundless heat on the earth, making the earth scorching hot!
The city wall of Renjiazhuang has already been piled up taller, and red bricks have been used to wrap the adobe inside. It really looks like a small sturdy city.

On this day, a rare number of people stood at the gate of the city.

Liu Shu, Liu Wen, Liu Liu and other high-ranking section chiefs in Qingcheng Town were all standing here, as if they were waiting for someone.

Not long after, a carriage arrived at the gate of the city, and a lame old man got out of it.

The sixth child hurried forward and helped the old man down.

"Village chief, be careful."

Seeing that the old village chief's legs were a little weak, the sixth child quickly reminded him.

"I'm fine, this leg is also an old problem. When I see you, I'm so happy."

The old village head looked at Liu Shu, Lao Liu and the others, and he couldn't stop smiling, all the joy was on his face.

"I knew I was right at the time. Mr. Ren is a capable person! Now that you follow him, you are also promising people. You must listen to Mr. Ren's words in the future."

The old village head was walked towards Ren's village with the help of Lao Liu, and asked a few people to come to his side, and said in a low voice: "Mr. Ren has just started, and he is surrounded by people from our Liu's village, but you can get it." Pay attention to some influences, and don't do any bad things to make people chew their tongues from behind.

If Mr. Ren is allowed to hate the people of our Liujia Village, even if we have a love affair with him, this power struggle will be fierce!
Old Sixth, you are the head of the Integrity Section, you shouldn't be here today. "

He has lived most of his life and has seen through some things.The head of the wolf gang, Fu Gang, is his old buddy. Every time he went to Liujia Village to look for him, the two would talk about the relationship between Ren Pingsheng and Liujia Village.

Seeing Liu Qiang and the others at this time, while he was extremely happy, he couldn't help entrusting the words he had thought about for a long time to these juniors, so that even if they were in high positions and had power in their hands, they could Don't get carried away.

"We'll remember."

After listening to the village head's advice, the sixth child suddenly felt that he really shouldn't come here.

Although now a small Qingcheng town is under the eyes of the boss, no one dares to have any wrong thoughts.

But after all, I am the section chief of the Integrity Section, so I should be a lonely official.Even the officials of the Integrity Section, the owner has reminded that anyone who enters the Integrity Section must at least be prepared not to be transferred within five years.

This in itself is a policy to maintain the purity and independence of INT.

"Ah."

The old village chief nodded when he saw that they had listened.

Not long after entering Renjiazhuang, the old village chief saw the village chiefs and patriarchs of the villages in Qingcheng Town who had been invited, and some acquaintances, such as the village chief of Xiaowang Village, all moved towards him.

Soon, everyone arrived at the destination of their trip and saw those golden corns.

In the frame woven with bamboo strips, there are golden mallets and grains with distinct grains, which are as attractive as gold!
"Old village chief, take a look. This is the 'corn' that the mayor is now vigorously promoting. As long as you take care of it properly and keep up with the fertilization, it's no problem to harvest [-] catties of grain per mu."

Hu Chun, chief of the agricultural department, looked at the old village chief who was accompanied by Liu Liu, Liu Shu, and Liu Wen in person, and introduced him to the somewhat lame village chief who was walking in the front without daring to neglect.

"Good stuff!"

The old village chief picked up a corn cob mallet, and stroked the grains of grain with his rough and dark fingers.

The grains are much larger than rice.

Just rubbing these grains gave him a feeling of intimacy in his heart.

"In addition to these, the mayor also brought crops such as potatoes and sweet potatoes. These crops are also high-yielding crops, and they don't choose the land. Even some fields or even mountainous land can achieve high yields. It consumes a lot, so it has to take turns to cultivate, and it can't be planted every year."

In addition to corn, Hu Chun also took out potatoes, sweet potatoes, and high-yield rice crops, and introduced them to the village chiefs and elders present.

At noon, roasted sweet potatoes, stewed sweet potatoes, boiled corn, polenta, fried corn kernels, cornmeal pancakes, mashed potatoes, fried shredded potatoes, stewed potatoes, fried potatoes, etc. were served.

The round tables are full of meals made from these crops, so that the village chiefs and elders, including Village Chief Liu, not only taste the sweetness, delicateness, and deliciousness of these grains, but also feel the fullness of these grains feel!

"It's really auspicious!"

All the village chiefs said with emotion as if they had found a treasure.

They have dealt with the land all their lives, and seeing so many new food crops at one time, they really feel that these are the food that can keep them and future generations alive!

Be sure that these are auspicious signs from heaven.

And Mayor Ren is the messenger of auspiciousness from heaven!
