Chapter 281 Eating cake with tears

In the family area of ​​​​the Houcheng Military Camp, Lu Songli and Qin Sheng had already washed up and returned to their rooms, preparing to go to bed.

Qin Sheng took a cloth and wiped her hair, "Lili, I heard something today."

Lu Songli sat lazily with her eyes slightly dozed, letting him do whatever she wanted, "What's the matter?"

"Ji Wuyin and his men escorted the grain northward and encountered two water bandits."

"Then what?" Lu Songli said in her heart, there are not only water bandits but also pirates on the water.

"You said that after we fight the bandits and bandits on the ground, can we go to fight the bandits and pirates in the water?"

"She has long-term ideas and is ambitious." Lu Songli praised.

"But Lili, we don't have a boat."

"I'll think of a way, you first destroy the bandits on land."

"Okay!" Qin Sheng responded excitedly, then took the opportunity to hug her from behind and said, "Lili, you are so kind."

"Idiot." Lu Songli raised her head, smiled and kissed his face.

Qin Sheng couldn't help but pull her into a hug, and then couldn't help but hug her waist and kiss her.

After the kiss, the two of them lay on the bed. Qin Sheng fanned her while clinging to her, and they chatted quietly.

Lu Songli endured the feeling of a big stove next to her, ironing her skin, and whispered to him.

Gradually, Qin Sheng's voice became quieter, and the fan stopped shaking.

Lu Songli took the fan out of his hand, threw it aside, then moved away slightly and closed her eyes.

She was thinking about what she had just done, building ships to develop a navy, getting horses to develop cavalry...

We have to recruit craftsmen...

Lu Songli had a headache when she thought that ships and horses were big spenders of money. Money was needed everywhere.

No, she was too gentle with Ji Wuyin, the richest man in the South! Tomorrow, she would have to squeeze more money out of Ji Wuyin, the richest man in the South.

This time, Lu Desheng had been out for about ten days, after seeing off Prince Gong and the imperial censor Zhou Chengzhong. He visited three counties and then came back.

I am tired and homesick.

Lu Songli, Lu Zhiyuan, Lu Mingzhi and her siblings didn't dare to say or do anything about her father's failure to meet his expectations of touring the five counties.

For Lu Songli, her own father felt sorry for her, and if he was not allowed to rest when he was tired from working, he would also lose his temper.

After he had a good rest at home for a day, Lu Songli went to see him and discussed with him how to recruit craftsmen.

Lu Desheng was kicked out of the room by his wife, Mrs. Jiang. He just heard in the room that his little girl was coming, and he didn't want to move at all.

Hearing his daughter's suggestion, Lu Desheng couldn't help but said, "My daughter, I'm just the governor of Liaodong County. Do we, father and daughter, need to work so hard?"

Lu Songli said sternly, "Father, let alone the side of the bed, how can we allow others to sleep soundly? Simply speaking, Liaodong County is now the place where our Qin and Lu families live and work. Do you feel at ease if we don't go through the entire Liaodong County?"

Besides, they had finally won Liaodong County, so how could they take advantage of others?

Lu Desheng said sarcastically, "Dad has no other intention. He just feels sorry for us, father and daughter."

Lu Songli coaxed him, just treating him as a child with a tantrum, "Dad, be good, let us work hard for a few years. From now on, my daughter will let you and your mother enjoy your life leisurely, and you will never have to work again."

"Really?"

"real."

"How many years is it?"

"Three, five, seven years, but you will definitely not be as busy as you are now."

"Okay, dad believes in you." Lu Desheng ate the cake painted by his little girl with tears in his eyes. What could he do if he didn't eat it, but he couldn't really stop working.

In the afternoon, Lu Desheng summoned Mo Lianfeng, the administrator of the Xiangping military camp, in the name of the county governor.

Mo Lianfeng never expected that the Qin family would turn around so quickly!

Although the Qin family is still guilty of the crime, now that Mrs. Qin Sixth and her father Lu Desheng have become the governor of Liaodong County, no one will mention this forbidden area without a look.

Liaodong County is located in the northeast corner of Dali, which is too far away from Chang'an. If the emperor is far away, Lord Lu is the local emperor of Liaodong County.

He was extremely lucky that when the Qin family fell into his hands, he did not mistreat them harshly and even provided them with certain conveniences within the scope of his authority.

Therefore, when he was summoned, he felt quite calm.

When Mo Lianfeng was invited in, he saw Lord Lu, the governor of the county, sitting at the front seat, and Mrs. Qin Liu sitting next to him. When he looked over, she smiled at him and nodded slightly.

Mo Lianfeng stepped forward, clasped his hands and bowed, "I'd like to pay my respects to the Sheriff!"

"Get up." Lu Desheng asked after waiting for him to stand up, "Don't worry about it. I heard my daughter say before that when we were at the Xiangping military camp, she suggested that you set up an experimental field. Did you finally do it?"

Mo Lianfeng calmed down and replied, "Back to Mr. Lu, you are asking about the acres of paddy fields that Mrs. Qin Liu suggested to plant using the rice seedling transplanting method?"

Lu Desheng remembered the term his daughter said, "Yes."

"It's done. I've planted about five acres of paddy fields."

"How are those acres of rice growing?" Lu Songli asked with concern.

Mo Lianfeng recalled that the rice in the five acres of land was indeed greener and lusher than the rice grown next to it using the old method, and he returned truthfully.

"Don't meddle. Just plant those few acres of land and don't take too much care of it. Just take care of it as you used to take care of the rice." Lu Songli explained that she was worried that after Mo Lianfeng returned today, he would do something to those five acres.

Pay special attention to the care of the rice. If you go too far, it will be bad and the rice will be killed.

Lu Songli plans to promote a new rice planting method next year. When this crop of rice is mature enough to be harvested, the village chiefs of Zhuangzi villages in Liaodong County will visit it.

Land is the lifeblood of the people. If you ask them to change their farming methods without any examples, there will be great resistance.

Seeing is believing, hearing is believing. Only real harvest can convince them.

I believe that if those five acres of rice have a good harvest and we can harvest a few more bushels of rice per acre, there will be much less resistance to promotion.

After asking about the matter, Lu Desheng asked Mo Lianfeng to go down.

After Mo Lianfeng returned, the appointment letter promoting him to the position of General Manager of Xiangping came out, which aroused the envious eyes of the people around him.
