There is Room For the Poor Daughter - Chapter 878
[Chapter 878 Chapter 878, Rooted]
first coming to Ganzhou Wei, Xiao Yeyang devoted himself to military training and defense. Only by ensuring the safety of Ganzhou Wei and defending the people of Xiliao, can Ganzhou Wei develop .
Daohua is also busy, busy reclaiming wasteland, busy opening shops, busy building pastures.
Ganzhou Guard is the poorest guard among the nine guards in Xiliang, and has the smallest population. In addition, it is the closest to Xiliao. It has been suffering from wars all year round, and its economic development has been severely hindered.
What she has to do now is to grow a large amount of grain and spread the grain, so that the people here can see hope and relieve the people’s livelihood. As long as the people here live well, they will naturally attract people from other places.
The imperial court did not give much support to Xiliang. If Xiao Yeyang wanted to make achievements here, besides establishing a complete military defense system, he also had to have a matching material production and supply system.
Obviously, food is the most important part of it.
Therefore, Daohua paid much more attention to barren slopes than shops and pastures.
The iron shop brought the shovel and other agricultural tools, and Daohua immediately sent Yan Shouhou to deliver the things to the slope.
“Girl, Master Tan from the carpenter’s shop has made a cart, and I would like to invite you over to see if it suits you?”
Daohua immediately went to the front yard.
The trolleys in Ganzhouwei are all two-wheeled, and the body is relatively large. On flat ground, one person can still pull it, but when it comes to slopes, one person needs to pull it forward and one person pushes it backward.
What she asked a carpenter to make was a single-wheeled one, and the body was so small that it could be pulled by one person even on a slope.
Seeing the one-wheeled cart made by the carpenter, Daohua saw that the stability and firmness were quite high, so she nodded with satisfaction and looked at Master Tan: “I need this cart urgently. How many carts can you make every day?”
Master Tan : “The trolley Madam wants is easy to make. With my few apprentices, I should be able to make about five carts a day.”
Daohua shook her head: “Not enough.” Then she paused, “Master Tan, I need 1,000 wheelbarrows, and I will give you this order directly.
” , I don’t care about the specifics of the process, as long as you hand me twenty to thirty trolleys every day, if you can make more, that’s the best.”
“Of course, the quality of the trolleys shouldn’t have any problems. Tan Master, can you take this order?”
Master Tan was silent for a while, discussed with his son next to him, and finally nodded: “Madam, the little old man can take this order.”
Daohua nodded, looking To Gu Yu beside him: “Later, you will take Master Tan to the accountant’s office and withdraw one hundred taels of silver as a deposit. After that, you will pay him as much wages as the trolleys he handed in every day.”
After Gu Yu took Master Tan to leave, Daohua silently counted the money spent during this period, and she was glad that she had collected more than twenty boxes of silver and gold in the abandoned imperial tomb.
“Although these silver and gold were not transported into the national treasury, they were also used in the construction of Ganzhou Wei, which is equivalent to entering the national treasury.”
Seeing that everyone was busy, Gu Jian couldn’t stay idle, so he found rice Hua: “I heard that you are going to open a pharmacy?”
Dao Hua nodded.
Gu Jian: “Then I’ll go to the pharmacy for a consultation.”
Dao Hua smiled and said: “That’s great, Master, your medical skills are so high, with you in charge of the pharmacy, the pharmacy will definitely be overcrowded soon.”
Gu Jian ignored his apprentice Flattery, he is quite serious when it comes to business: “How is the store layout?”
Daohua: “I haven’t visited it yet.”
Hearing this, Gu Jian got up immediately: “You are busy with your work, as a teacher I’ll take a look for you.” After speaking, he strode out of the room.
The old man wanted to find something to do to pass the time, and Daohua liked to see it, so he didn’t care too much when he saw Dongli following him.
On the twenty-fifth day of the first lunar month, a mighty food delivery team passed by Shiqukou.
Standing on the mountain, Wang Wu looked at the food transportation team that was at least twice as long as the previous one, his mouth was wide open in surprise, and after a long time, he said to Wang Qi beside him tongue-tiedly:
“Sir, this capital city How rich is the lord?”
Wang Qi didn’t say anything, but just stared at the food transport team down the mountain.
After investing so much, it seems that the prince of the royal family really intends to take root in Xiliang and make some achievements.
Wang Wu was still amazed: “No wonder that lady didn’t even bat an eye when she gave us several carts of grain. If I want to be as rich as them, I will give it too.”
Wang Qi ignored him, but looked to the side The old man: “Patriarch, February is about to enter, we have to hurry up to open up wasteland, the seeds left by the nobles cannot be ruined by us.” The patriarch of the
Wang clan nodded: “Don’t worry, the grain is so precious, the clansman Don’t dare to ruin it.”
Three days later, on the twenty-eighth day of the first lunar month, the food team transported into Ganzhou City.
“Most of the food delivered this time is grain seeds. Now you should believe what I said before. As long as the household registration is in Ganzhou Wei, those who stay to open up wasteland will definitely be able to receive grain seeds for free.”
Looking at the refugees They watched the food team eagerly, and Dong Yuanxuan took the opportunity to spread a wave of publicity.
“Moreover, these grains are not ordinary grains. Mr. Xiao and Mrs. Xiao saw that our Ganzhou Wei land is barren and scarce, so they specially transported the high-yield grains cultivated at home.”
Hearing the words ‘high-yield grains’ With this word, not only the refugees became agitated, but even the guard officials on the city wall became agitated.
Fan Tong struggled to look away from the food team, and looked at Xia Jianren aside: “Old Xia, tell me, is what Master Xiao’s master just said true?” He
gritted his teeth.
“If Xiao Yeyang really brought high-yield grain seeds to Ganzhou Wei, so that the common people and the brothers under him can eat enough, I will be his subordinate, and I will recognize it.”
Xia Jianren listened to Fan Tong’s words , with a wry smile in my heart.
Before Xiao Yeyang wanted to accept refugees, he reported it to Mr. Wei. Mr. Wei directly said to ignore it, and he also laughed at Xiao Yeyang’s innocence in his heart.
Unlike other places, Xiliang lacked supplies, unlike other provinces that could get support from the surrounding areas and accept tens of thousands of refugees, manpower, material and financial resources had to keep up, but obviously, Ganzhou Wei did not have these conditions.
He originally thought that Xiao Yeyang would definitely mess things up, and he was waiting to see a joke, but he never thought that someone directly shipped high-yielding grain seeds.
Xia Jianren was a little shaken in his heart. Xiao Yeyang invested so much and looked like he wanted to take root in Xiliang. Can Master Wei really drive him away?
Looking at the excited refugees flocking to the registration office downstairs, Xia Jianren thought in his heart that if this year’s autumn harvest really increases, then Xiao Yeyang will gain a firm foothold in Ganzhou Wei.
The will of the people is always the fundamental core for officials to govern a land.
Outside the city gate, several ox carts slowly drove towards the gate of the city until the grain transportation team had all driven into the city.
“Here in Xiliang, there is a lack of everything. If you want to develop, the investment in the early stage is really too big. This is really not something that everyone can do. The emperor sent the little prince here, and he really found the right person. ”
Behind Xiao Yeyang is the royal family, who can deter the local officials in Xiliang, and the decree can be implemented well.
At the same time, there is the Yan family behind Xiao Yeyang.
Although the Yan family came from a poor family, they were not prominent among noble families, but the high-yield grain varieties that Daxia is promoting now were cultivated by the Yan family.
During the war in northern Xinjiang, millions of stones of grain were donated as soon as they were offered. This is a super big grain household.
In Xiliang, if the people’s food and clothing problems can be solved, the people’s hearts will be almost subdued.
The more Mr. Dong thought about it, the more excited he became. Xiao Yeyang didn’t have many people around him when he came to Xiliang. As long as his son followed him well, the Dong family would not worry about turning around.
In the temporary office next to the porridge shed, several clerks were struggling to write and register, while Dong Yuanxuan maintained order and said some words about looking forward to a better life in the future from time to time.
Suddenly, he noticed the ox cart in the distance, and seeing that his family had arrived, he hurriedly said to Zhang Da who was next to him: “Master Zhang, my family has arrived. I will lead them into the city first, and then come back immediately.”
Zhang Da knew Dong Yuanxuan The person behind is Xiao Yeyang, even if he is an official, he is very polite to Dong Yuanxuan: “Go and resettle your family, I will watch over here, you don’t need to worry.”
After Dong Yuanxuan thanked, he ran to the cow car.
“Grandfather, grandmother, father, mother, are you not tired all the way?”
Mrs. Dong smiled and said, “No, everyone is fine.”
After greeting the elders, Dong Yuanxuan walked to Liu Xiaoman’s side: “Are you tired?”
Liu Xiaoman saw that her husband cared about her, so she narrowed her eyes with a smile: “Sister, I am in good health and I am not tired at all. Our son has been good all the way.”
Mrs. Dong waited for the young couple to talk for a while before urging: “Okay Let’s go into the city.”
Dong Yuanxuan nodded, stepped forward to pull up the bullock cart, and said to Mr. Dong and Mrs. Dong as he walked, “Sister Yan helped me find a house in the city. Everything in it is complete. My son moved in in a few days.”
Mrs. Dong: “It’s really troublesome for that girl.” Then, she paused, “After two days, when the house is cleaned up, I will take Xiaoman to visit.”
Dong Yuanxuan smiled She nodded: “Okay, when I came here, sister Yan said she missed you, she must be very happy to see you.”
Hearing this, Mrs. Dong looked at her son’s expression and saw that there was nothing unusual, so she silently relieved.
Now Yan Yatou is married to Xiao Yeyang, and her son is also married to Xiaoman. She doesn’t want her son to let go of the past.
Soon, Dong Yuanxuan brought his family to his residence in Ganzhou City.
Xiao Mansion.
Yan Shouhou led Qin Xiaoliu, who had brought food, to the guest house to wash and change clothes, and said with a smile: “Brother Xiaoliu, the girl and the old man are processing medicinal materials, and you can’t let go of them for a while, you should take a rest first, the girl is free , I’ll call you.”
Qin Xiaoliu nodded: “Thank you bro, I just want to sleep now.”
During this time, his mood has been tense, either because he’s worried about encountering bandits, or because he won’t be able to The food was delivered in time, and I didn’t get a full night’s sleep. Now that I’m in Ganzhou Wei, I’m really exhausted when I relax.
“Thank you for your hard work.”
Daohua met Qin Xiaoliu the day after the food arrived.
Qin Xiaoliu, who had a rest for the night, was in good spirits, and said with a smile, “It’s good that I didn’t delay the affairs of the girl and uncle. I’m really tired from delivering the food this time. The main reason is that the road in Xiliang is too difficult to walk. There are not many post stations, and the food team often travels at night. In addition, there are many bandits here, and everyone’s nerves are tense along the way.”
He did not exaggerate the facts, nor deliberately concealed anything.
The girl and uncle will stay in Xiliang for many years, and there will definitely be food deliveries in the future. If something happens, it will not be blamed for their incompetence.
Daohua nodded: “The problems you mentioned were encountered last time when we came here. Next time, if you need to send something over, you should still hire a few more escort agencies like this time. Safety is always the most important thing. ”
Qin Xiaoliu grinned and said, “Thank you, miss.”
Only a benevolent person like the girl would value people’s lives so much.
Daohua asked about the capital and the Wangfu and Yanfu again, and when she learned that nothing serious happened, she let Qin Xiaoliu go down.
