As soon as he arrived, he got into his room and took out the treasure-like Snow Lotus Vein Renewal Pill hidden in his arms.
"What's this?"
Chen Youxi looked on and asked.
Lu Fang said: "Things that restore the meridians."
Then he directly opened the bottle cap, poured the elixir out, stuffed it into his mouth, and swallowed it.
After a while, a hot and itchy feeling spread throughout my body.
This is the healing of broken meridians.
But obviously, no matter how good the elixir is, it is impossible to restore his injuries instantly.
I stayed in Ningyuan County for several days.
Lu Fang endured his heartache and bought some goods for BESTORE.
As for the BESTORE store in Tanzhou, it does not plan to open for the time being.
We still have to wait for the three new workshops to be built first.
The busy farming season has just passed.
But the tenants of the Xu family are extremely busy right now.
Because the Xu family started to harvest.
The continuous fields are full of vegetables.
And this harvest is closely related to them as tenant farmers. Although 70% of the harvest from the field will eventually go to the Xu family, if the harvest is better than when they farmed the land, their lives will be easier.
Everyone has expectations in their hearts.
It’s a rare good year with smooth weather.
They also hope to accumulate more wealth in this good year. Maybe they can buy some land themselves in the future, so that they will no longer be tenants of other people's homes. These days, land is still the most real.
Only when you have land can you become strong.
Where there is land, there is hope.
"Lao Li, do you think these things grown by my boss can really be sold at a good price?"
"I hope! If we can sell it at a good price, those of us who farm for our employers can also earn more, right?"
"laugh!"
The tenant looked around and whispered angrily: "They are all things that eat people without spitting out their bones!"
These days, not many tenants have a good impression of their landlords.
Be grateful?
Fuck you, be grateful!
If all those fields had not been plundered by nobles, officials, wealthy businessmen and powerful men under various pretexts, how could they have no land to farm?
Those who really have their turn to be tenants are poor people.
At this point, the two tenants looked towards the field ridge, their eyes vaguely unkind.
There, Zou Yi, Lu Fang, Xu Zhilou and others were watching.
All of them were dressed in silk and looked relaxed. No matter how they dressed or looked, they were naturally far inferior to the tenants working in the fields.
Zou Yi, Xu Zhilou and others were talking and laughing.
Only Lu Fang looked at the old farmers working in the fields, young and strong, and was a little dazed.
Ningyuan County is already an excellent place, but the tenants in the fields are all wearing patched clothes. Even Ningyuan is like this, but what about other places?
The Great Chongqing Dynasty was said to be peaceful, but in fact it was nothing more than that.
Class divisions are serious.
The gentry class accounts for most of the country's wealth.
It is difficult for the people below to even fill their stomachs.
This is a deep-rooted problem.
The world is full of scholar-bureaucrats.
It's a pity that my father, the emperor, wanted to bring some benefits to the people, but was eventually usurped from his position. Whether it was because of his eagerness for quick success or his whims, the final reason was that the scholar-bureaucrat class was too powerful, and even the emperor could not
Can't be shaken.
What about yourself and Lu Liang?
Rebellion... no, rebellion is a matter of time.
But how will the relationship between these gentry and the common people be handled?
How can we make these people willing to follow the Luliang uprising or stand aside and watch?
Let everyone have land?
But this will inevitably harm the interests of the gentry.
At this moment, Lu Fang was thinking a lot. It could even be said that his worries were unfounded.
"Nephew Lu Xian, have you really collected all these things from my fields?"
Just as he was thinking about it, Xu Zhilou suddenly asked Lu Fangdao.
Lu Fang turned his head to look at him and saw that he was smiling from ear to ear.
The harvest in the fields is very good.
One by one, the tenants used baskets and poles to carry basket after basket of horn peppers and millet peppers out of the fields. They were all tender and dripping with water.
A little further away, the potato fields yield better results.
Potatoes are cold-resistant and have low soil requirements.
Although Xu Zhilou had already known this, he still couldn't help but feel elated when he saw this scene.
He probably estimated the yield, and the income from the fields was at least several times what it was before.
Lu Fang nodded lightly and said with a smile: "Of course."
His new workshop is almost ready.
Not to mention horn peppers and millet peppers, even potatoes can be made into potato starch, potato powder and many other things.
With the hatred value search engine around, these agricultural products can be used to make flowers in his hands.
Although these are still in the experimental stage, he doesn't mind trying the waters in Ningyuan County first. Even if there is an uprising in Luliang in the future, these industries of his will most likely be destroyed.
It doesn't cost much anyway.
When Xu Zhilou heard what Lu Fang said, he was completely relieved and laughed.
Hearing this, Zou Yi also looked at Lu Fang and said with a smile: "Brother Lu Xian, it seems that this county can safely promote these crops."
He was truly relieved until this moment.
These days, everyone relies on the harvest from the fields to survive. Planting rice has been something that has been ingrained in the hearts of the people for thousands of years.
Lu Fang told him before that he wanted to promote the cultivation of potatoes, millet peppers, and horn peppers in Ningyuan, but he felt uneasy.
If he succeeds, he will have great achievements and even be able to show his prominence in the Chongqing court.
But if it fails, facing him will be a disaster.
Now, he no longer has such worries.
Lu Fang nodded again and said: "Then I will also start preparing seeds and leaflets on how to grow these crops."
With these harvests from the Xu family, he felt confident.
Aren’t these ready-made pepper seeds and potato seeds?
As for the leaflets, he took the initiative to mention them to Zou Yi before. Naturally, the purpose was to help the people of Ningyuan County avoid detours in the process of planting these new crops.
Take potatoes as an example. The most suitable planting time in Jingnan County is probably at the end of the year and in August. If you plant them at other times, you may not be able to grow anything.
"Then the county will return to the county magistrate later to prepare the paperwork."
Zou Yi added: "Just think about it, when is the right time to come to your place to get the seeds?"
He and Lu Fang agreed that during the promotion phase of these new crops, the seeds would be given to farmers for free first. When there is a harvest, Lu Fang would be given money for the seeds.
Lu Fang thought for a while and said: "Maybe at the beginning of next month!"
He still needs some time to prepare. The new workshop has not been completely built yet, and there is no manpower.
Zou Yi just smiled and nodded, "Okay."
He also needs time to prepare. Moreover, potatoes, millet peppers, and horn peppers need to be "fermented" in Ningyuan County.
Only when farmers see real benefits will they not resist planting new crops. By then, they will also be able to save a lot of money.
