Chapter 159 Recognition
Author: That sour sugar
General Yan corrected his expression.
The Zhongshu Ling said: "The rice you planted has a high yield. Shengxin Shiyue, I specially ordered us to come and buy good varieties and promote them to various places so that the people can grow more high-yield rice."
Chen Fan stood up again and saluted: "These rice places were planted after land reclamation. Fortunately, God treated them well and blessed by the emperor. The rice growth was particularly gratifying and the yield was surprising."
The general smiled big.
The Secretariat smiled: "Who led the construction of that terrace? Who designed and dug the drainage channel here?"
Is this a question knowingly? Chen Fan complained.
"Sir, the construction of terraces on the other side of Yema Mountain has received strong support from Shengping County Government. Two thousand mandates were dispatched and built by Yao Zhubu. The diversion channel of Qijiadu was designed by Mr. Zhang, and the terrain of the river section is quite different. , opening a section of extradition canal can not only allow the river water to pour smoothly, relieve the pressure on the river dam, but also facilitate irrigation."
Zhang Ci stood up: "Miss Chen and I coincide with each other."
"Isn't it true?" General Yan blurted out. Chen Fan lowered his head.
The Secretariat smiled: "This kind of thinking is very good, and it is better than simply adding a dam to build. If you buy a piece of wasteland, you will be willing to invest so much and have the courage."
Chen Fan bent down deeply: "My lord has been too much, but the young lady just doesn't want to be busy with this river bank."
The Secretariat then asked about the rice: "What are you two planning for these rice?"
Zhang Ci said: "It's at the price of three coins per bucket. It's just that it's difficult for us to completely dry these rice to the previous standards in the short term, so we can only dry it a little and raise it. If there is no hurry in time, we can dry it more. Two days.”
General Yan asked with a smile: "Actually, you can propose donating it to the court, there is no need to do more, just 20,000 stones."
Zhang Ci did not answer and looked at Zhongshuling. Zhongshuling did not look at him.
General Yan smiled and said, "If you give it to the court, you will make contributions and you will receive good reputation and rewards. If you sell it to the court, you will only get some copper coins."
Zhang Ci bowed: "My sir just said that he was here to buy, so we obey the arrangement."
General Yan smiled again: "This kind of high-yield rice seed is still very cheap for three cents. Take us to see the threshing. I heard that you have two new machines."
When did you hear that? There were fighting in the middle of the night and early morning.
Zhang Ci accompanied them to the edge of the field, and Chen Fan took the girls to change their clothes to cook. Grandma Zhou led a few teams to the vegetable field to pull vegetables, and several guards to kill chickens and pigs.
The two offline machines have been carried out and placed properly. Zhang Ci and Qingji demonstrated the use of the threshing machine, and the soldiers dispatched three groups of people: one group of transporting rice, one group of threshing rice stalks, and one group of shaking them in turn Thresher.
The two adults watched quietly for two quarters of an hour, and then inspected the harvest and threshing of the fields on both sides.
It was soon lunch time. Chen Fan asked Zhang Ci and Chen Zhongyan to accompany the two adults to have a meal, and the other boys entertained their entourage.
The VIP room was arranged in another room, separated from the front hall by a few meters of yard. The two adults admired the trees, flowers and plants again.
There is a ginkgo tree in this yard with golden leaves and countless small fans shaking in the wind; there is a persimmon tree full of orange and yellow persimmons; there are two jujube trees, and the fruits are ripe.
"General pick a persimmon to eat?" Zhang Ci said, then picked two on tiptoe and handed them to the two adults. General Yan was intrigued, jumped, picked two high places, and proudly gave one out. Give to the Secretariat.
"Can you beat dates?"
"sure."
The general grabbed a branch and started shaking it. The dates on the tree fell all over the ground. He grinned and laughed.
"This farm is really interesting. Does it have a name?" asked the general.
Zhang Ci nodded: "It is called Youyidu, and the village over there is called Qijiadu. The other side of the river is called Youyicun."
"This name is also quite interesting." The general said, and followed Chen Zhongyan into the house with Zhongshuling.
Zhang Ci didn't enter the house, so he took a bamboo basket and started picking up dates.
The door was closed, Chen Zhongliang turned around and stood with his hands behind his back. The Secretariat Ling and General Yan lifted up their robe and bowed to him: "I have seen His Highness the Sixth Prince."
"No gift." Chen Zhongyan stretched out his hand to support him.
The two stood up and sat down with Chen Zhongyan one after another.
General Yan was not as hilarious as before, and he looked serious: "I never thought I would meet Your Highness here."
Chen Zhongyan smiled: "I have to thank Yuanfeng County Government for stuffing me and Chen Zhongliang and Chen Zhongmei to the Chen family."
"Does the Lord know?" General Yan asked softly.
Zhongshuling shook his head.
"Do you want to report?"
"Of course. This matter cannot be hidden."
"Then..." General Yan paused and changed his verbal talk, "Do those entourages know Your Highness? If other officials come to visit in the future, will they recognize Your Highness?"
"I don't usually leave the palace and rarely attend banquets. Low-ranking officials hardly know me. High-ranking people do not seem to be sent to this area to serve as governors or county magistrates."
"Did the Governor of Qingzhou know you? He has not entered the palace, but it is not ruled out that someone at home has described it." The Secretariat asked.
"I'm not sure," said Chen Zhongyan. "I think he doesn't know me, and he dares not easily promote me here."
Zhang Ci walked in with a basket of dates, walked into the kitchen, washed the persimmons and dates, and put them on the table. Then, he fell to the ground: "My son has met his father."
The Secretary of the Central Committee made his eyes slightly red. He took a deep breath before he helped Zhang Ci up.
General Yan looked at him and Chen Zhongyan: "You two are both phoenix-eyed, and standing together is really eye-catching."
"It's okay, this family is beautiful, with phoenix eyes, almond eyes, phoenix eyes, peach blossom eyes, and they all stand together, not attracting attention." said Zhongshuling.
General Yan smiled: "Does your girl specialize in choosing good-looking people to adopt?"
Zhang Ci also smiled: "The girl originally wanted to adopt a pair of siblings, Chen Zhongzhu and Chen Ya. Later, she rescued a little boy on the street. She thought she could be a companion with Chen Zhongzhu, so she adopted her and changed her name to Chen Zhongliang. Chen Yue
They asked for adoption themselves. The three boys were stuffed in by the county government."
"But they all happen to be beautiful. Such a family has their own beauty, which is really interesting." General Yan said happily.
The next moment, he curled his smile: "Have you really married into a marriage?"
Zhang Ci nodded.
General Yan was silent for a while and said, "Can you still change it?"
"Why do you need to change?" Zhang Ci's tone was very plain.
"Are you back?"
Zhang Ci did not answer, and the main hall fell silent.
After a long time, the Secretariat Ling said: "The world outside is so vast that my son can have a role. These two thousand acres of high-yield rice are a merit."
"But he..." General Yan sighed in disgust.
But he wanted to say something and asked again: "How about Miss Chen?"
