Mixing ancient times with Taobao

Chapter 203 The support of the villagers
The villagers' reaction exceeded Zuo Fu's expectation.I thought that the promotion of hybrid rice would take a little effort, and even a few pilot projects in Changzhou would be required. Only after the results are achieved can the matter be carried out smoothly.

But what she didn't expect was that when the yamen opened the next day, she found that there were already villagers standing outside, all of them came to inquire about hybrid rice seeds.

Many villagers are from the nearby villages. After hearing the news, they set off from their homes early, led by their patriarchs, and headed down to the city, hoping to obtain the god seed.

Zuo Fu was confused by the enthusiasm of the villagers, but he was very touched immediately.

"My lord has come to Wujin and has done so many things for us. We don't believe what others say, but we believe what your lord says!"

The clan elders of Wangjia Village clasped their hands and said: "After your lord came to Wujin, he did not fear power, severely punished corruption, suppressed evil gentry, and exempted farmers from agricultural taxes. We believe that there is a god seed that produces eight hundred catties, and the adults will not lie to us!"

"Yes, yes! My lord, we believe in you!"

Zuo Fu repeatedly cupped his hands, "I feel ashamed to have gained everyone's trust."

After a pause, he continued: "I have heard such a saying: The foundation of the world lies in the country, and the foundation of the country lies in the family. The country is composed of countless families. If the people are rich, the country will be strong; if the people are suffering, the country will perish. My official Young, with no talent, learning or virtue, I dare not talk about governing the country and the world, but I think I can do it by self-cultivation and family. Being an official for one term can benefit one party. To be the master for the people, it is better to go home and sell sweet potatoes."

"My lord, what is a sweet potato?"

A villager boldly asked, "Very valuable?"

"Sweet potatoes..."

Zuo Fu smiled, "That's a good thing. It's a thing from Xiyi. It grows in America, which is thousands of miles away. Promote it in Wujin."

"Eight hundred catties too?"

A clan elder had hope in his eyes, "It's good to have four hundred catties."

"Ha ha!"

Zuo Fu laughed loudly, "It's more than eight hundred? But I can't say too much, I will invite everyone to watch when I succeed."

After a pause, he continued: "So I just want to do a good job in the people's livelihood, so that everyone can have enough to eat and wear cotton clothes. If possible, it is best for everyone to have books to read. In this way, every small family will be rich. The country can also be strong."

Some county school students were also in the crowd, listening to Zuo Fu's words thoughtfully.That Xueba muttered in a low voice: "How does this county magistrate look like a meritorious school?"

"No way? That school is long gone..."

"It's all the theory of a sage who is born out of the body. Where will it disappear? The sacred science is immortal, and the work, the mind, and the Neo-Confucianism will not be destroyed."

"It seems reasonable to hear what my brother said. This female county magistrate is really practical. Have you ever listened to the lessons they teach in the county? They teach some heresy..."

"But this cement and the things in the supermarket come from this way. Didn't you find out? Because of these, everyone's life has improved. It's really strange. Why don't you see her oppressing you when you build roads and walls? Who, how can it be maintained? And everyone's life has become better..."

"I know... I heard that the magistrate of the county has recruited a group of people. In addition to studying Gewu, they also study economics, specifically thinking about how to make money."

"Ridiculous! How can a group of scholars do such despicable things?"

"But she really didn't squeeze anyone, she got things done!"

"The knowledge they call science is very weird. They specialize in the study of messy things. Some people go to see the water flow and say that there are great questions in the water flow. This is crazy..."

While several county school students were discussing, a group of villagers became excited, bowed their heads one after another, and shouted in unison: "I am waiting for you to trust me, and I am willing to be sent by you."

"Hehe, you just have to live your life well."

Zuo Fu smiled and said: "Everything needs to be done one by one. If you have children at home, you can send them to the school to study. You can also go to the literacy class. You can learn more words, and you will be able to farm better than others in the future."

"My lord, do you still need to know how to read while farming?"

"One must be knowledgeable while alive. If you don't know knowledge, you must be a little stupider than others. Look at the high-ranking officials in the yamen. Why are they better than you? It's because they are knowledgeable. These high-ranking officials are not officials, but go home. Being a farmer is better than others, because the process of learning is the process of cultivating wisdom and logic."

Zuo Fu patiently explained: "That's why I want to open so many literacy classes, and this year I will open literacy classes to various villages. If your children come to school, not only will they not have to study, but they will also be provided with food. If you leave home Far away, there is also a place to live."

"My lord loves the people like a son, and I admire him."

Seeing that Zuo Fu had no airs at all, the villagers became more courageous and raised their own questions one after another.

Zuofu answered one by one, and his attitude of being close to the people was soon engraved in the hearts of the people.In fact, although these common people have their own little calculations, they are still very simple in nature.If an official can take good care of them, they will naturally support you.

One morning, Zuo Fudu explained to the villagers about hybrid rice seeds in front of the yamen.And when it was about to end, she said again: "If there is a serious illness in the family, you can report it to the yamen, and the officer will find a way to help them heal."

After a pause, he continued: "If someone from a poor family suffers from tuberculosis, the yamen will give special medicine."

As soon as this remark came out, everyone cheered!

The specific drug for tuberculosis has been released from Nanjing since last year, but the high price of the drug has also kept the general public out of the door.Now adults are giving free medicine, this is simply a Bodhisattva!

Sending away a group of happy villagers, Zuo Fu also felt exhausted.Although the people support him, as a local governor, he still has to think about what he says.

After all, it is not easy to govern a place, and policies cannot be changed overnight. It is not easy to do this job well, both to appease the people and to act as a deterrent.

After returning to the county magistrate's house and having lunch, Zuo Fu continued to study smallpox.She has been researching this a lot these days, and found related experimental equipment on Taobao.But even with the equipment, Zuo Fu found it very difficult.

First of all, she still has to extract the virus from the vaccinia virus to make a smallpox vaccine, and then extract the immunoglobulin from the person who has just been vaccinated, and inject these two together to reduce side effects. Otherwise, a few people will die, and the public will probably not Willingness to be vaccinated.

And to achieve these two points, she had to find a sick cow, and then she had to find a person who was willing to "suffer to death"...

The latter is too difficult, and if you accidentally play it off, do you really want to find a scum to do some inhumane things?
