Chapter five hundred and twentieth observe the feelings of the people
As grain output increases and taxes decrease, the more people make arable land!
Although some of the money was spent on hiring a tractor, the efficiency increased by no means a little.
At the same time, the idle staff can also go to the factory to work, and the money earned is enough to pay for hiring a tractor!
Therefore, tractors are absolutely beneficial to the people.
At the same time, for the court, it not only gained a good reputation, but also made money, which was also good.
But a lot of investment is required in the early stage!
After the cooperative came out, Ying Zheng sent off many guards and said he wanted to go to the fields in person, for fear that these guards with swords would scare the people.
Although the county magistrate was worried, he did not dare to stop him, so he had to order the guards to change their casual clothes, stay away from them and secretly protect them. If an accident occurs, he will appear immediately!
"Old man, the harvest of our land this year is better than last year!"
"No! This year, the potatoes are mixed with water, and they are much bigger and bigger!"
"Haha! I can sell it for a good price again!"
"Yes! The vermicelli factory just established in the city is collecting a large number of potatoes. When we collect all of these potatoes, I drove a ox cart to send it to sell it for the money, and we will also renovate the house...!
”
In a field of potatoes, the old man was digging with a smile, while the old woman picked up the dug potatoes together and waited for loading.
Although the work is very tiring, the two of them are doing very hard.
"It's really not easy for the people. At such an old age, I still have to work in the fields!"
When Ying Zheng saw this scene, he couldn't help but sigh.
"Yes! That's why my son-in-law suggests reducing agricultural taxes and increasing people's enthusiasm for farming!"
Ying Feiyu nodded and said.
"You guys... go and help the old man!"
Ying Zheng turned his head and pointed at Pang Gaoyuan, Wang Ben, Zhang Han and others.
"I...we?"
Wang Ben and others were originally looking around to see the scenery of Yanmen County.
Unexpectedly, he was named by Ying Zheng the next second.
The key point is that it is not a good thing, it is to ask them to help dig potatoes!
"That's right! You are talking about you, go quickly! Do you have the heart to watch the two old men dig so hard?"
Ying Zheng kicked Zhang Han in the butt and asked him to take the initiative to help.
"Don't...Don't...Your Majesty, let's go! Let's go now!"
When they turned their heads and looked at the others, the few of them were afraid of being beaten, so they had to run over obediently!
"Old man, give us your tools, we will help you collect potatoes!"
Even if Zhang Han is unwilling to do so, he might as well leave a good impression on him.
So he forced a smile and took the tools in the old man's hand.
"You...you come and help us?"
The old man was very surprised that the tool was taken away.
"That's right! Just go there and chat with that majestic and extraordinary middle-aged man!"
Wang Ben nodded confidently and pointed at Ying Zheng who was standing with his hands behind his back.
"Okay! OK! Then thank you, you are such a great person!"
The old man and the old lady thanked each other repeatedly.
Put down your tools and walk towards the ground!
"Thank you, thank you so much! We haven't known each other before and even helped us collect food. You are such a great person!"
When he came to Ying Zheng, the old man kept thanking him.
"Old man, don't be polite..."
Ying Zheng waved his hand and continued, "You are so old and you still have to come out to collect the land. Where are the young people in your family?"
"The two sons are working in the factory and can't get rid of themselves! The eldest son and daughter-in-law are also very busy in the fields to harvest rice! Although we are old, we can still move and cannot drag down the children, so we themselves
Come here! "
The old man explained with a smile.
“How is the harvest this year?”
This is the main purpose of Ying Zheng’s appearance this time.
Only when the people are well-fed and well-dressed can the court be more stable!
"Okay! Very good!"
"Look at the potatoes in the field, they are big and numerous, and their yields are getting higher and higher every year!"
The old man and the old woman spoke one after another.
"In the past, our Yanmen County not only had low grain production, but also had to be robbed by the Huns. It was even harder to survive, let alone how much it cost to sell!"
"It's different now. The grain output is so high. The court has reduced our taxes. Our family can't finish it. Most of them can be exchanged for money. Our living standards have improved a lot!"
"Now we are in trade with the Huns, and we can eat a meal of mutton every once in a while, which was something we didn't dare to think about before...!"
When it comes to grain production, the old man talked endlessly, and he felt joy from the bottom of his heart.
Wang Ben and others in the field opened their faces bitterly and started digging!
"Oh! Are we going to travel with His Majesty, or come to be coolies?"
"Who said no! No wonder His Highness the Crown Prince is unwilling to travel with His Majesty!"
"It's okay for the prince. At least His Majesty didn't let him dig potatoes in this field! It's so hard for us!"
"Okay, I said that those are useless, so hurry up. We can have a break early after digging it up..."
The old guys were all confused with their facial features, facing the loess and their backs facing the sky, facing the scorching sun, and sweating heavily on their heads.
Ying Zheng, Ying Feiyu and the old man were catching a cold under the shade of the tree and chatting, having a lot of fun.
Finally, Wang Ben and others had to deliver bags of potatoes to the old man's house, even the county magistrate Qu Ming and general Pang Gaoyuan were no exception.
By the time I finished all this, it was almost dark.
The old man and the old woman thanked each other repeatedly.
After Ying Zheng put on a good hand, he followed the fields and visited several farmers. The answers he got were almost the same as those of the old man, with a bumper harvest, rice full of the warehouse, thanking the court and other words!
Fortunately, it was getting late, and Ying Zheng did not let Wang Ben and others work anymore!
"Your Majesty, it's the autumn harvest at this time. The Ministry of Revenue has many things to do every day. Let's take the train back tomorrow. In this way, we won't delay the morning court in the future!"
"Yes! The production of hairy guns is gradually increasing, and each battalion is fighting for it. If the ministers are not here, they must rebel!"
"And I'm also in charge of a thief in the middle of the throne before. I guess there will be news in the next two days...!"
When he returned to the yamen, Zhang Han, Wang Ben, Kang Anping and others quickly found an excuse and demanded to return to the city early tomorrow morning.
There is no way. If you encounter an elderly and weak person tomorrow, your Majesty will definitely let them go.
This day alone will make them tired and almost parted. If they come one more day tomorrow, they will be useless!
"Forehead……"
Ying Zheng seemed to have not been alone enough and showed hesitation.
Seeing this scene, the old guys quickly winked at Ying Feiyu, hoping to help them persuade His Majesty and let them go!
Looking at Daqin, there are only two people who can impress His Majesty, one is the queen and the other is the prince in front of him!
As long as the prince speaks, I believe that Your Majesty will return the court tomorrow morning!
Looking at the pitiful expressions of several old guys, Ying Feiyu smiled and responded.
Chapter completed!
