Chapter 24: Field

"By the way, there are still too few craftsmen in the Equipment Department. Now that there are enough silvers, we should hire more people. Chen Qi, this matter is left to you. You can't find skilled craftsmen, but you can find some apprentices. The most important point is Be as interested in these technologies as you are."
　　 Before leaving, Xiao Ming said to Chen Qi that although Chen Wenlong is a soldier, his thinking is still a bit rigid, far less open than young people like Chen Qi.
　　 He is in charge of the day-to-day affairs of the Equipment Department, but it is now his turn to teach the technology and the gap between Chen Qi is not so big.
　　 Chen Qi nodded vigorously, and was appreciated by King Qi. This is a great honor for an ordinary craftsman who has no fame.
　　 Sending off Xiao Ming, Chen Qi stood at the door of the equipment department and became silly. He said to his father: "Father, our Highness is still very reasonable."
　　 "This is now, if before, you kid would have to eat a board." Chen Wenlong lifted his foot and kicked Chen Qi in the ass.
Chen Qi dodged and dodged immediately, jokingly said: "Father, I am a master craftsman now. You can't say that I am ignorant and skillless now. You see how our Highness attaches great importance to our Department of Equipment. I think there is a lot to do in the future. "
　　 Chen Wenlong blew his beard and stared. He had a son in his later years and naturally spoiled Chen Qi. This allowed Chen Qi to study these weird things, but he didn't expect that this kid could still have this encounter today, and it was considered a smoke from his ancestral grave.
　　 In this way, Chen Qi has great hope to inherit when he resigns from the position of Cao Cao.
He said: "Since your Royal Highness values ​​you so much, you must not live up to His Highness's expectations. I have observed these days that you do have this endowment. Go ahead. I will leave this blast furnace to you. I only Responsible for the procurement, revenue and expenditure of the Equipment Department."
　　 "Father, don't worry." Chen Qi said excitedly, his father meant to let him do it.

　　 The snow in Qingzhou City was still falling, and the wind was blowing like a dandelion rising in the wind. After a while, Xiao Ming was covered in a snow coat.
　　 Zhao Long and Zhao Hu followed closely behind Xiao Ming on horseback, watching the surroundings vigilantly from time to time.
　　 The last assassination made the atmosphere of Qingzhou City a bit solemn.
　　 The most annoying thing about this incident was Lu Fei. The assassination in Qingzhou City he was guarding was a shame for him, so he explained that the two should not let King Qi make any mistakes.
　　 Xiao Ming felt the tension of Zhao Long and Zhao Hu.
　　 This is a barbaric era, the law can only be trampled by the strong.
　　 If you want to be free, you must have strong strength.
　　 He is not a person with strong ambitions, but he also understands that if the fief is strong, he is safer.
　　 So he didn't want to get involved in the political whirlpool of the Great Yu country, he just wanted to make a fortune in silence, live a leisurely life, grow farms, and engage in industry to make his territory a rich place.
　　 Of course, if someone wants to destroy the life he wants, he doesn't mind turning from a sheep to a lion and tearing him to pieces.
　　 The last assassination may have come from his brothers and sisters, or other people with ulterior motives.
　　 For this, Xiao Ming has no anger, because anger without strength is meaningless, and this is also a price a prince must bear.
　　 Pursuing this matter in vain, it is better to focus on construction, not because of this stimulus to get confused.
　　 "Zhao Long, Zhao Hu, do you remember where the king's property is?"
　　 Wangfuzhong is really boring. Luluo and Aster are also embroidering when they are free. He didn't want to disturb. At this moment, he suddenly remembered that he was also a big landlord, and there was a large piece of land outside Qingzhou City.
　　 Every prince of the Great Yu Kingdom has his own land. Of course, his prince is no exception. After the vassal Qingzhou, he will plot a large piece of fertile land for yourself in accordance with the prince’s land standards.
Zhao Long is one year older than Zhao Hu, and the two of them are also relatively good at speech. He said: "His Royal Highness, your land is the richest in Qingzhou City, on both sides of Yanghe in the north of the city, but these lands have not been cultivated. , Still a large wasteland."
　　 Xiao Ming nodded, and it was true. After he set aside a large area of ​​land, Xiao Ming didn't bother to produce and was too lazy to take care of it. The land has been deserted until now.
　　 "Go, accompany the king to see." Xiao Ming said.
　　 "His Royal Highness, this heavy snow has blocked the road, I am afraid it is inappropriate to go outside the city at this time." Zhao Hu worried. Zhao Hu didn't say much, but every time he was very short.
　　 Xiao Ming was excited just because of the land property, but he could not heed his advice.
　　 If he remembers correctly, the field standard for the princes of Dayu Kingdom is 100 hectares.
　　 These hectares are almost the same as those of modern times, which means that he has 10,000 acres of land, which is equivalent to an area five miles long and wide, and the area is not small.
　　In the country of Da Yu, there are imperial villages, which are divided into official land and private land. His land belongs to the imperial village.
　　 It's still winter. If these wastelands are reclaimed in one winter, and the spring begins tomorrow, his manor can also be planted.
When he thought of this, Xiao Ming couldn't suppress the feeling of going, because he also thought of a policy that could reduce Qingzhou’s finances. He said to the two of them: "Call Lieutenant Lu and bring some soldiers with you. This is always safe, right? ~EbookFREE.me~ Zhao Hu nodded, "This shouldn't be a big problem, I'm just worried about encountering bandits. "
　　 "Well, what you are reminding is that this year, the king ordered to reduce taxes and open up wasteland, hoping that there will be less banditry." Xiao Ming frowned slightly.
　　 is different from modern times. It is not a rare time to fall into the grass in this era.
　　 These people are either because they can’t eat, or because they have violated the law, and of course some are pure badass.
　　 These people can do harm by pulling up a hill, and it is very difficult for the government to arrest them because of the large area and sparsely populated area, information blocking, and inconvenient transportation.
　　 Even in the peaceful and prosperous times, this folk bandits often haunt, so there is no need to mention him here.
　　 arrived in the north of the city and explained the reason, Lu Fei's first reaction was to object.
　　 拗 but Xiao Ming, Lu Fei had to send all the cavalry to follow Xiao Ming out of the city.
　　Mi River is in the south and Yanghe is in the north. A group of more than 30 people rode horses for ten miles and finally arrived at Yanghe, which is a smaller river than Mihe.
　　 "His Royal Highness, this is your property. It's just that His Highness didn't pay much attention to it in the past, and it has been deserted." Lu Fei said.
　　 Xiao Ming looked around, and both banks of Yanghe River were white. Only the rushing Yanghe water was flowing. Snow fell into the water and immediately melted.
　　 It is estimated that only he himself is not clear about Xiao Ming's property. The piece of land that Lu Fei pointed to is the land on both sides of the Yang River, which is indeed a high-quality farmland.
"Well, it's a pity." Xiao Ming said. He looked at Lu Fei and said, "Lu Fei, do you still remember the previous government's military system~EbookFREE.me~ Welcome friends to visit and read, the latest and fastest , The hottest serial works are all at ~EbookFREE.me~ mobile phone users, please go to read.
