Seeing that Xu Yue nodded and really wanted to give him a bicycle as a reward, Gongsun Hao couldn't control the corners of his mouth that rose crazily and laughed out loud with joy.

In an instant, he received a fatal punch from Xu Dalang. Fortunately, Gongsun Hao reacted quickly and Xu Dalang was not serious, so he narrowly escaped death.

However, he also knew that his bicycle was envied by others, so Gongsun Hao and Xu Yue hurriedly hugged their fists and ran away to the weapons depot.

He couldn't wait to see his own 'Hot Fire Wheel'. He couldn't wait any longer and wanted to have it right away!

Xu Dalang watched coldly as Gongsun Hao disappeared, then withdrew his gaze, lowered his head and looked at Xu Yue with a pair of innocent big eyes:

"Why didn't I?"

Xu Yue suddenly had a lump in her throat, "This, this...brother, can you ride?"

Xu Dalang nodded unconvinced, "I'm sure they can do it!"

"Okay then, you can use the remaining one? But I think brother, you are already very fast, so I don't think you can use it."

Xu Dalang didn't care about this and just said: "I want to have what others have."

Xu Yue helplessly raised her forehead and said, "I'll give it to you."

Jun Mei, who was watching, couldn't help but remind her: "Then shall I leave?"

"Okay!" Xu Dalang responded quickly.

Jun Mei's expression changed and she really left angrily. Xu Yue looked helplessly at these two childish people and felt tired.

It can be seen that carrying water is also a technical job.

It's just a bicycle. I didn't know Junmei wanted it so much before, but now I know, she can use the energy fruit to exchange for ten bicycles. Then the whole family will have one, and there should be no conflicts.

Bar?

Xu Dalang urged: "Let's go and ignore her."

Xu Yue nodded and led her brother to the weapons warehouse, where she happened to meet Gongsun Hao who had just picked up the bicycle and was practicing.

Bicycles require a certain degree of balance. Gongsun Hao, who was exposed to this kind of thing for the first time in his life, didn't know how to ride it at all. He was sliding on the ground with his feet on the ground.

From a distance, it looks like that.

Xu Dalang looked at it, smiled mockingly, strode into the warehouse, and pushed out the last bicycle.

With such a handsome appearance, Xu Yue thought that her brother could learn on his own without a teacher. After all, he had never seen his brother being embarrassed by cows, horses and donkeys.

However, it turns out that Xu Yue thought too much.

The gap between machines and living things is too big. Xu Dalang, who just laughed at Gongsun Hao, immediately became the target of Gongsun Hao's ridicule.

The two of them seemed to be at loggerheads. Xu Yue stood aside and watched the two of them swaying and riding the bicycle crookedly and unskilledly, and they were enjoying themselves like fools. It was really unbearable to watch.

Finally, unable to stand it any longer, Xu Yue took over the task personally and gave guidance, and then the two reluctantly started training.

At ten o'clock in the evening, Xu Dalang was riding a bicycle, Xu Yue was sitting on the ramp in front, and the brother and sister were riding their bicycles home together.

Although Xu Dalang was still a little unskilled, Xu Yue believed that his brother would not throw herself, and she gradually felt relieved.

The girl raised her face slightly, listening to the exclamations of the passers-by, enjoying the cool breeze blowing in the evening, and looking at the new city built by her family hand in hand. She felt an indescribable emotion welling up in her chest.

Moving gave her endless energy.

...

In mid-August, the Xu Jiajun sent troops to the remaining eight counties of Yuyang, but no resistance was encountered. The road to taking over the entire Yuyang County was much smoother than expected.

Of course, hybrid rice plays a big role in this.

Because of the bumper harvest in Yuyang County, the output of fairy rice has been verified. How can the tenants in surrounding counties endure this?

They were looking forward to the arrival of Xu's army more eagerly than their gentry owners.

For the people at the bottom, whoever can give them fields to cultivate, who can exempt them from taxes and labor, then this person is their god!

As for whether they should still be the subjects of the Daqing Kingdom, it didn't matter at all to the tenants - the dynasty did not regard them as its subjects in the first place.

When people in various counties saw that their relatives and friends in Yuyang County had a bumper harvest of 700 kilograms per mu, and that they could still keep more than 300 kilograms, they were moved.

You know, in previous years, the output of the fields was not necessarily 300 kilograms, and the rent could cost nearly 60%.

In addition, there are taxes and corvees every year, as well as various exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes collected locally. The people are busy all year long, and their income is not enough to pay the taxes.

On the other hand, in Yuyang County under the rule of Xu Jiajun, all kinds of exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes were exempted, only 50% of the grain tax and commercial tax were collected, and corvee was no longer compulsory.

I heard that those who build roads in Yuyang County can get 20 pieces of money every day, as well as a bowl of bone broth at noon as welfare. In the eyes of people in other counties, how can this be considered road construction?

This is simply enjoying yourself!

When there was no Xu Jiajun, the work of building roads and city walls was done by corvees. If you did well, you would get no reward. If you didn't do well, you would be beaten. When the conscription period was over, you would have to shed your skin even if you didn't die.

If you are unlucky, it is common to die accidentally on the construction site, let alone expect to have enough to eat and drink broth.

With so many visible benefits before them, the people in the other eight counties of Yuyang will naturally not object to the arrival of Xu Jiajun.

In a county town, ordinary people accounted for more than 90% of the numerical advantage. When the gentry from aristocratic families looked at the wolf-like green eyes of the tenants, and then thought about the military exercises they had experienced personally, they were very scared.

fast.

Of course, there were also families who moved to Zhuojun next door. Xu Jiajun didn't care about these people at all. After all, the fields were left and it didn't matter where the people were.

Just as Junmei said in the restaurant that day, no matter where these people fled, as long as they are still in the Central Plains, sooner or later they will have to face the transformation of Xu Jiajun!

When the news that the remaining eight counties of Yuyang surrendered without a fight reached Zhuojun, Qi Zhou and other envoys also returned to Zhuoxian, the seat of Zhuojun, with a cart of watermelons.

Zhao Yu, who was almost fifty years old, was eating the watermelon brought by Qi Zhou and others and lamented that Xu Jiajun really knew how to live a good life. He also listened to the report from his subordinates, saying that the whole Yuyang County had been controlled by Xu Jiajun. He was in a very sad and happy mood.

subtle.

However, this did not affect the speed at which he ate melons. Soon, all the watermelons in the white porcelain plate brought by Qi Zhou from Yuyang were eaten by him alone.

When he was done, his stomach was too bloated. Zhao Yu waved his hands, stood up and said, "You guys step back first, and let me think about it carefully."

Qi Zhou nodded and walked all the way. He was already tired, so he was looking forward to leaving get off work and walking quickly.

But Liu Qi, who had not dared to return to Bingzhou since his defeat, did not want to leave like this.
Chapter completed!
