Farmer’s Little Girl

  Chapter 3344 The future can be expected

   "I want you to inspect the royal history for the south, to inspect the grain roads on Huainan Road and Jiangnan Road, supervise the granary, stabilize prices, check the accounts, if there are officials who ignore the holy grace, violate the law and discipline, I will grant you the right to cheap."

  Yang Heshu bowed and responded, "Your Majesty, the minister is afraid that it will be difficult for the minister to complete two inspections in a short period of time. The minister asks for an assistant."

  The emperor's eyes swept across the hundred officials, and finally pointed at Bai Erlang and said, "Let Bai Cheng walk with you..."

   Bai Erlang, who was wandering around the world, was dumbfounded, but he was pricked by a colleague behind him before reacting. He stepped out and responded hesitantly, "Chen Zunzhi."

  Yang He Shuben wanted to ask for Bai Shan. Hearing that it was Bai Cheng, he understood after a little thought, and responded with a smile.

The emperor groaned for a moment and asked, "Where is Tang He now?"

  Feng Liang went out and said: "Master Xiao Tang is now in the area of ​​the state, patrolling the post-disaster matters."

  Five years ago, Tang He was still outside. He went back to the capital halfway through, but only to report on his work. After staying for less than two months, he left again.

  The emperor originally wanted to find a place for him to stay as a governor, but seeing his outstanding achievements in the past few years, he wandered around Dajin, and the officials became clearer.

  So the emperor let him continue to walk around, truly realizing the ideal of going north and south, investigating unjust cases in the world.

  The emperor said: "Seal him as the northern inspector, and Bai Shan as the deputy imperial historian, patrolling the three grain roads of Henan Road, Hebei Road, and Hedong Road with Tang He."

  Bai Shan froze for a while before stepping out, bowing down in response.

  The emperor said: "Bai Shan, you are the first to mention the issue of building granaries and stabilizing prices, and you are good at calculating. You must pay attention to this matter, and you must not slack off."

  Bai Shan respectfully responded, "The minister abides by the decree."

  The emperor settled the matter, and after discussing a few more matters with his ministers, it was too early to see that it was too early. He didn't want them to make a fuss about the river transportation, so he got up and said, "Retreat."

  Everyone got up and congratulated the emperor.

  Bai Shan raised his head to look at Yang Heshu, smiled slightly, and turned to find Zhou Man.

   Zhou Man took his wat and smiled at him: "You are going on a business trip again. There are many places to go this time. Remember to help me pay attention to the plants along the way."

  Bai Shan responded, "Don't worry, I will pay attention to it. I will leave the house to you first."

   Zhouman gave an "um", and he was stopped by Gu Zhong when he went out. Gu Zhong called several adults. Yang Heshu and Bai Erlang were among them. "Your Majesty wants to see several adults."

  The four of them turned and headed to the study behind the Tai Chi Hall.

  Bai Erlang walked beside Zhou Man and exhaled quietly: "It's dangerous, I'm really afraid that your majesty will ask me questions in the court, but how do you think of asking me to inspect the Liangdao? I have been working in the Imperial Academy."

  He also participated in and signed the account of the river, but he did not participate in the discount of building a granary and stabilizing prices.

   Zhou Man, "Don’t the Hanlin of the Hanlin Academy just move where you need it? Do you really want to stay in the Hanlin Academy for the rest of your life?"

  Bai Jiro: "The Hanlin Academy is very good, and it’s not bad to be an old Hanlin."

  Bai Shandao: "Your Majesty asked you to patrol with Brother Yang Xue to protect Brother Yang."

  "Me?" Bai Erlang was surprised, "I protect Yang Xuexiong? Yang Xuexiong can also lead the army and do some kung fu. Isn't it better than me?"

  Bai Shan: "...In short, just follow Brother Yang Xuexi closely and take care of the guards of your princess mansion. You are a maid. Your Majesty has always loved Princess Chong Mingda, and Huainan Road over there dare not do anything to you."

  After Bai Erlang realized, "Oh, yes, Yang Xuexi has many enemies in Huainan Road."

  Yang Heshu couldn't help but chuckle, and said to him: "I will have to protect you on this road."

  Bai Erlang hurriedly said: "Brother Yang Xuexi, don't worry, I can't do the rest. I can still follow you and I."

  Wait to the study room, the prince and several important ministers are here.

It was the first time that Bai Erlang entered the small court meeting, and there was still some tension. Fortunately, the emperor did not ask him, but caught Bai Shan and Zhou Man to ask. He seemed to know that although he was involved in the river course, he was behind him. Bai Shan and Zhou Man.

  Shirajiro quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

  Bai Shan dares to write this booklet. Naturally, he has done research. Especially the second booklet is more detailed than the first one. After a month's interval, he added a lot of things.

Bai Shandao: "I have a dense water network in the Great Jin Dynasty. I don’t talk about the North Yellow River and the South Yangtze River. I only talk about the branches of the rivers in between, Weishui, Luoshui, Wuding River, Fenshui, Bianshui, and Huaishui. This is from northwest to east. , Sailing from north to southeast, the prefectures and counties passing through it cover half of the prosperous area of ​​Dajin."

"Not to mention that the Jialing River can be difficult to connect with the Weishui River, and it can connect with the Han River to the Central Plains," Bai Shan said: "If these rivers can be used, commerce and trade along the way will definitely flourish. With rapid transportation to the north and southeast, the national strength will not only increase by one or two times?"

  Lord Tang frowned, "Doesn't it hurt the farmer if we are so heavy on business?"

The prince said: "If it was natural before, after all, the arable land is limited, but now the grain production is increasing, and the price of food in various places is falling. In the past, two adult laborers could do their best to feed a family of three, but now one adult labor can feed a family of three. That's more. The one who comes out can naturally do other things to make life better."

"Shang is the way to make their lives better." The Prince said: "In the past few years, Sinong Temple has been studying how to increase the production of rice and wheat seeds. There are eight stones per mu."

Bai Shan agreed and said: "Although the food is high-yield, there are still many poor people everywhere. The displaced people who have lost land and the tenant farmers who have less land have to be solved. The minister now has no better solution, and temporarily uses these manpower. Enabling it to survive in the world is an important task now."

  In fact, there is a way, but the way is more radical. Both Bai Shan and Zhou Man feel that if they propose it, they may not see the sun next month, so forget it, not mention it for the time being.

  They think of a better way, let the flow go and focus on the present.

The emperor nodded slightly and said: "The river can be dredged, but this is not something that can be done overnight, especially if there is no map of the river course. The condition of each river course is unknown. How to dredge, which part should be dredged first, must be considered for a long time, and it will be discussed at the dynasty meeting. Conclusive."

He said: "Except for Jiannan Road, the places you went include all the important river channels in Dajin. I ordered you to collect river maps privately and submit all the data to the Ministry of Industry. Of the policy."

  Bai Shan was overjoyed and bowed down in response.

The emperor looked at Zhou Man and said: "The Ministry of Industry will first select a few rivers for experimentation, so as to avoid problems with the expansion of the project, but there are too many migrant workers and soldiers down the river, and there will be disasters. Have a countermeasure?"

   Zhou Man bowed and said: "The minister will decide on a suitable anti-cold and anti-epidemic prescription as soon as possible, as well as a response method suitable for their underwater operations. At that time, a medical department will be set up at the labor point in case of emergency."

  The emperor nodded slightly, then clicked on the map on the case and said: "Then start with the section from Weishui to Fenshui, and you have prepared for the Imperial Medical Office."

  It’s September now, and the water level in Fenshui has dropped, and some places will even snow. At this time, dredging the river is indeed terrible. Zhou Man didn’t dare to neglect, so he bowed down.

  The emperor confessed the task, and then said to Bai Erlang, who had been standing obediently, "Mr. Ma, you learn from Master Yang."

  Shirajiro responded.

  The emperor waved them to retreat, leaving the prince and Mr. Tang to talk.

  Out of the study, the four of them walked outside the Tai Chi Hall, Bai Shan and Zhou Man lagging behind, he asked, "This matter is urgent, I will go back to pack up my things and be ready to go out, will you go to Fenhe?"

   Zhou Man: "Depending on the situation, we still need to discuss this matter with Xiao Yuanzheng, but I will not go for a long time. I will be back in March or two."

  After all, it’s November, and the river is difficult to dig.

  Bai Shan nodded, held her hand and smiled: "Then see you at will, you have to take care."

   Zhou Man looked up at him, smiled and said, "You are also careful along the way."

  Yang Heshu and Bai Erlang had already walked down the steps. Seeing that the two of them dangled in the back and had never followed up, they couldn't help but look back.

  The sun was shining, and the two of them were basking in the golden sunlight. The steps of the Tai Chi Hall were very long and tall. When Yang Heshu and Bai Erlang looked up, they felt the sun dazzling, and only saw the two of them holding together a dangling hand.

  Yang Heshu couldn't help but smile, shook his head and turned around and said, "Let's go."

  Bai Erlang curled his lips in disgust, and followed Yang Heshu away with a sad expression on his face.

  Bai Shan and Zhou Man saw this, smiled at each other, approached and chased them up together, their sleeves touched their sleeves, and they flew up. No one could see the hands holding together under the sleeves of the two.
