After the palace change, the little medical girl took the prince to farm

Lin Xirou had only seen these tools in museums, and they were basically invisible in modern rural areas.

These are the most primitive tools for measuring fields.

The name is Bu Gong.

The two feet are spread one step apart, looking like a bow and arrow, so it is called a walking bow.

However, a step in ancient times and a step in modern times are two different concepts.

In ancient times, both feet took one step, which is equivalent to two steps in modern times. The distance was about five feet in ancient times.

"Mulangjun, I have also brought the people who will help me. When will we go to Qinjia Village?" Tian Lizheng pointed at the two people following him and said with a smile.

Tian Da was an acquaintance and greeted Li Shen and Lin Xirou with a smile.

Another older man, Lin Xirou and Li Shen, whom neither Lin Xirou nor Li Shen had met, introduced himself and said that he was a relative of Tian Lizheng. He worked as an accountant in the county town and knew how to do accounting. He just returned to the village yesterday.

He held an abacus in his hand.

On Tian Da's shoulders, he carried a walking bow.

Li Shen flicked his sleeves and said, "Let's go now."

He asked Zhou Heiniu to follow him with the account book.

It was inconvenient for donkey carts to enter the fields, so Li Shen did not drive the cart this time, but rode a donkey.

Lin Xirou didn't go out today and wanted to make pills at home. After watching them leave, she took Zhou Heihu into the warehouse to look at her medicinal materials.
.
Li Shen led Tian Lizheng and others to Qinjia Village.

On the way, they met the Qin family village Zheng.

Tian Lizheng saw him and raised his eyebrows, "Qin Lizheng, good morning."

When the Qin family villagers saw Tian Li following Li Shen, they immediately understood what was going on.

His face turned dark with anger, but he was afraid of Li Shen, so he still smiled and said hello, "Ah, morning, Tian Lizheng."

Then he bowed his hands to Li Shen and said, "Mu Langjun, I was about to pick you up, but I didn't expect you to have already set off."

"It's hot, please finish checking early and rest early," Li Shen said.

"That's right, that's right." The Qin family villagers were flattering respectfully.

Li Shen shook the field register in his hand again and pointed at Tianli Zheng and Qinjia Village Zheng.

"I wasn't just idle, so I was curious to see the farm booklet in the village. This was because when I went back to the county town last time and saw the county magistrate, he mentioned something. He said that the farmland in the village could not be measured accurately. Yes, tell me to take a look when I have time, and I will check it out. We will check Qinjia Village today, and Tianfeng Village in a few days."

If things don't favor one thing over another, people won't be suspicious.

Tian Lizheng said loudly, "There is no problem in our village. Mr. Mulang, you can check it at any time."

The faces of the people in the Qin family village changed, and they also said, "It's the same in our village."

Li Shen pushed the hat on his head and said, "Let's go then, the sun is getting hotter and hotter."

He patted the donkey's back, and the donkey trotted forward.

The others followed immediately.

Qinjia Cunzheng glanced at Tian Lizheng and narrowed his eyes.

Tian Lizheng raised his eyebrows, smiled, and swaggered after Li Shen's donkey.

The people in Qinjia Village were in a panic, but they didn't dare to have an attack and quickened their pace.

The group of people first arrived at a family's field.

The couple who were weeding in the field saw a group of people approaching and hurriedly came over.

"Li Zheng, this is..." "Nothing, Dafu, go about your business." The Qin family villagers waved their hands to the two of them.

The couple who were weeding glanced at Qin's village Zheng, then smiled and greeted Tian Lizheng and Tian Da, "Uncle Tian, ​​eldest brother Tian, ​​you are busy."

"Hey, aren't you Da Ya's aunt and uncle? So this is your family's field." Tian Li was pointing to the field in front of them.

The couple secretly took another look at the village leader and said, "Ah, yes, yes."

Seeing Li Shen coming again, Qin Dafu and his wife hurriedly saluted Li Shen, "Mr. Mulang."

They met Li Shen that day when they were having full moon wine at Tian's house.

Li Shen waved his hand, indicating that they didn't need to be polite.

"Qin Dafu!" Li Shen opened the book and read, "The family has twelve acres of private land and four acres of public land. Is that true or not?"

Tian Daya's uncle Qin Dafu put down his hoe and walked to the field stems, "Yes, yes, yes, my family does have so many fields. We have been farming them for decades. These fields were left by my grandfather when he was young. Come down."

Li Shen looked at the field in front of him, "It would be better if the landowner is here. Qin Dafu, please point out the scope of your family's field. We will test the field."

Qin Dafu took another look at Li Zheng in his village and said hurriedly, "There is nothing wrong with our fields. There is no need to test. There is really no need to test. There have been so many fields since my grandfather was young, and they have not changed at all. .”

"Hey, I haven't taken the test. How do you know if there is a problem? What if the old man remembered it wrong back then and it continues to this day?" Tian Lizheng said.

"Ah, this is really true." Qin Dafu was anxious.

The honest farming man was so anxious that his face turned red.

His wife was also anxious and said, "Yes, yes, my family's fields are not wrong."

"Mulangjun, they all said they were right. Does this mean there is no need to take the test? There are 95 households in our village, and each family has a lot of land. The two rich households in the village even have forty acres of land. I'm afraid It should be measured until the Chinese New Year." Qin's villagers said with a smile.

Li Shen raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "I will only randomly check a part of the family. I won't check every family. If you meet Qin Dafu's family today, let's check this family. If you are wrong, it is also the matter of the former county magistrate and will not be discussed with anyone." Relevant.”

Qin Dafu and his wife looked at me, and then looked at Li Shen together, "Is it because of the former county magistrate?"

"Of course, aren't you saying that this is the field left by your grandfather when he was young? Counting the time, isn't it a matter of decades ago? Isn't that the matter of the former county magistrate?" Li Shen said.

The Qin family village official rolled his eyes and thought to himself, so it turned out that he was checking the accounts of the former county magistrate?
"Let's start the investigation, Tian Da, bring the bow." Tian Li was looking at the sky, not wanting to start a lawsuit with Qin Dafu and his wife, and walked into the field.

"Hurry up and check the rich family of Qin today." Li Shen said, clicking on the field register.

Qin Dafu and his wife saw that the people in their village were not saying anything, so they stopped saying anything.

Look at the fields being busy.

Tian Li was calling them to identify Tian, ​​and they immediately walked over.

After working for more than an hour, it was finally determined that there were indeed sixteen acres of land.

"Yes, that's right. The official land plus private land totals sixteen acres." Finding that there was no problem, Qin Dafu breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile.

The leader of the Qin family village also raised his eyebrows proudly.

This scene was seen by Li Shen, and he asked Qin Dafu, "Qin Dafu, what crops are you planting on your official land this year?"

He and Shang Tianzhu flicked their sleeves and asked as if they were chatting leisurely.

Qin Dafu thought that the matter was done and he was just chatting, so he relaxed and said, "Oh, there are two acres of sorghum and two acres of grain."

"Have you planted sorghum and corn in your private field?" Li Shen asked.

Qin Dafu smiled and said, "No, our private fields are not planted this year."

Li Shen shook the field register and said, "That's strange. Why were there three acres of sorghum and three acres of grain?" (End of Chapter)
