Madam,General Revives Again - Chapter 65
“Liar.” There was a cry from the crowd.
Then more people were enraged. The middle-aged man turned around and ran away. He even ignored the old woman. He didn’t look like a filial son.
“The liar ran away? Come on, let’s see you off. ” Some warm-hearted people saw that the middle-aged man wanted to run out, and immediately surrounded him, trying to catch people and shouting.
“Don’t worry. There’s another one on the ground. She’s still pretending to be dizzy. Grab her and tie her up.” Seeing that everyone was chasing the middle-aged man, a man who was close to the old woman suddenly saw that the old woman opened her eyes and wanted to run away. He could not help shouting. At the same time, he went to the old woman and restrained her.
When they catch the middle-aged man and the old woman back, they all ask for severe punishment, but Luo Qiuyun, who is the victim, is put aside.
“What shall we do, miss? They are going to see the officials. ” Chen Jing suddenly asked, looking at the middle-aged man and the old woman shivering in the crowd. She didn’t have to bear it, but worried that it would delay their time to go to the Grange.
Luo Qiuyun sighed and said, “forget it, I won’t go today. People are coming from the Yamen. We have to follow you.”
“Ah.” Chen Jing answered the voice, but she was not happy. However, because Luo Qiuyun spoke, she could only obey.
The location of the Yamen is a little far away from the city gate. Luo Qiuyun asked Luo Tong to turn around and walk. It was half an hour later when he followed the crowd to the yamen gate.
As for Luo Qiuyun’s being cheated by the old woman and her son, the officials in the prefecture government have received the news early and have found out the details. Therefore, Luo Qiuyun and other people’s trip is just a formality.
At least, Luo Qiuyun is also the Lord of Yong’an County granted by the Emperor himself. Although her rank is not very high and there are not many fiefdoms, she has become the Lord of Yongan county from the daughter of the people. She is also favored by the emperor and the carefree Lord. Naturally, she is not a soft persimmon that can easily offend.
However, Luo Qiuyun didn’t rely on her identity from the beginning to the end. Instead, she advanced and retreated politely, which made the officials of the state government have a good impression on her.
Luo Qiuyun said the details with the governor, and left without waiting for the final verdict. Moreover, on the way back, he met Luo Tianli and others who came in a hurry.
“Sister, are you ok?” Luo Tianli stopped in the middle of the road, waiting for Luo Qiuyun’s carriage to stop, immediately ran to her.
“No problem, why are you all here?” Luo Qiuyun knows that they are worried about themselves. However, seeing Luo Tianli in a hurry, he seems to be in a mess. He is slightly unhappy.
“I’m sorry, sister. I just heard that you had an accident. That’s why…” Luo Tianli, aware of the subtle changes in Luo Qiuyun’s face, knows that he is too reckless to do things this time. He is despised by his sister, so he quickly explains.
Luo Qiuyun nodded and said, “it’s not going to happen again. Come on up and go home.”
“Yes, sister.” Luo Tianli responds, and then jumps onto the carriage Luo Qiuyun takes.
This carriage was sent by the magistrate of Yong’an county and his wife Cui Shi when Luo Qiuyun was granted the title of the owner of Yong’an county. It happened that Luo Qiuyun brought it with him when he was about to move. Now it is Luo Qiuyun’s transportation tool.
I just didn’t expect that there were so many troubles when I went out in a carriage for the first time today. I knew I had to walk out of the city. Of course, it’s all angry words. It’s a long way to go. I can’t bear it for an hour or two. Besides, I’ve lost Luo Qiuyun’s identity as the county leader
Luo Qiuyun’s going out to “touch porcelain” in Yong’an City these two days made a lot of noise. However, as the party concerned, Luo Qiuyun has no time to deal with these, and even didn’t ask about the final result, because she took the car to the suburban manor the next day.
Before coming here, Luo Qiuyun didn’t expect that the manor given by the emperor was so simple, except for a piece of barren sand and swamp, and a dozen households with no clothes.
The carriage drove into the village, and someone saw Luo Qiuyun and them with sharp eyes. First, they ran back to report, “Jiang Guanshi, the new master is coming.”
“What? Really, here comes the new owner? ” Jiang Guanshi is an old man with gray hair. He is covered with mud and probably just came from the field.
“Really, I saw the carriage. It should be the new owner.” Said the young man who came to report.
Jiang Guanshi nodded his head and said, “OK, goudan, go to inform other people in the village quickly, just say to gather temporarily, let’s meet the new master.”
“Ah.” Goudan is the young man who just told the news. He ran away without saying a word when he heard manager Jiang’s order. Of course, he went to the field to gather all the villagers back, not to run away secretly.
Luo Qiuyun got out of the car and just saw the villagers coming back from the fields in all directions. They were as old as a skeleton, their skin became black and covered with mud due to the perennial sun exposure, which almost scared Luo Qiuyun.
“Is the girl the head of Yong’an county?” Jiang Guanshi didn’t kneel down at the sight of Luo Qiuyun. Instead, he made sure of her identity first.Luo Qiuyun nodded, “exactly. Are you in charge of the manor?”
“Yes, I’d like to meet the county leader.” Jiang Guanshi knelt down first, and then said to the farmers behind him, “come and meet the new master.”
As soon as his voice fell, he saw a group of farmers give Luo Qiuyun a big gift in a disorderly way. He said the same sentence, “see the new master.”
It is reasonable to say that when so many people speak the same sentence, their voice should be very loud. However, because the kneeling time is different, the time of speaking is not the same. The scene looks like a mess, and it sounds very noisy.
Luo Qiuyun subconsciously frowned, but not dissatisfied with the farmers, just hate this scene, so she waved her hand, let everyone up to reply.
“Mr. Jiang, tell me something about the situation in the village. How can I see that everyone seems to be short of food and clothing for a long time?” Luo Qiuyun asked.
Although the old man is a little old, he has good skills. At least he can command the young people in the village. Moreover, he doesn’t look like a traitor. He should be trustworthy.
Sure enough, the old man didn’t say a word of fluster from beginning to end, but the result was very unpleasant after listening to it. Because of such a large manor, old man Jiang told her that the yield of the best land was only 200 Jin of grain per mu
Damn, no wonder everyone is like a bamboo pole. The yield per mu is no more than 200 Jin. What’s the feeling? Luo Qiuyun can’t believe it’s true, but the fact tells her that it’s true.
What’s more, seven or eight tenths of the 200 catties of grain produced in this field have to be paid to the manor owners, so that only three or four percent of the grain finally fell into the hands of the villagers!
If it’s a good year, life will be better. If you go to the mountain to dig some wild vegetables and pick some wild fruits, you can barely survive. But if you have a bad year or something, life will be miserable. It’s common to sell children and girls.
Understanding the situation in the manor, Luo Qiuyun suddenly thought of a sentence, “prosperity, the people suffer; death, the people suffer.”
Sure enough, ancient times were not so easy to mix, that is to say, she was lucky and had some ability. Otherwise, she would struggle on the edge of darkness like most people.
“Mr. Jiang, I have a general understanding of the situation in the village. To tell you the truth, I am not very satisfied with this. Therefore, there are many changes to be made next. I hope you will give me your full support.” Luo Qiuyun said.
Ginger manager smell speech, busy nod should way: “yes, master although command, as long as there is a stutter, we these mud leg son all listen to you.”
“That’s good. The next thing I want you to do, if you do it well, you will not only have enough to eat every day, but also make a lot of money.” Luo Qiuyun seduces.
The farmers had heard about Luo Qiuyun’s name long ago, and knew that she never talked about this kind of thing, and it was said that she had the ability to turn stone into gold. When they heard her saying this, they all believed it, and were so excited that they knelt down and swore allegiance to her face.
“We will obey the orders of our master’s eldest daughter and pledge our loyalty to the death. If we disobey, we will not die well…” This time, the farmers unexpectedly agreed with each other. Luo Qiuyun didn’t know what to think.
“You don’t have to, just obey the arrangement.” Luo Qiuyun then said to Jiang Guanshi, “I just noticed that most of the houses in the village are built with thatch and fences. It’s easy to have an accident if it’s snowy. Moreover, the foundation of the house is unstable and it’s not suitable for people to live in. Therefore, the first task I give you is to build houses.”
“Building a house?” Jiang Guanshi thinks he can’t hear clearly in the back of his ear, and repeats it in front of Luo Qiuyun.
“That’s right.” Luo Qiuyun continued, “is there an open space in the south of the village? Everyone’s houses will be built there in the future, where the terrain is flat and the water level is high, so it will not be easily affected by floods. ”
“All the houses to the south? But it’s far away from the river, so it’s very inconvenient to get water. ” Jiang Guanshi is not questioning Luo Qiuyun’s words. He just thinks about the water source problem and takes the opportunity to say something to Luo Qiuyun.
Luo Qiuyun pondered for a moment and said: “I will solve the water source problem. Next, we will build the house as I said, and then wait until the house is completed Do you understand? ”
“I understand.” The villagers returned with one voice.
Next, the supervisor was handed over to Jiang Guanshi. However, considering the problem of food shortage in the village, Luo Qiuyun provided all the food for the farmers during the house building period. Who let her be the owner of the farmers and have money in her hands!
Luo Qiuyun doesn’t care about the money and food. Since she intends to build her farm into a happy land full of laughter, it’s normal for her to pay something at the beginning. Besides, after the farm is built, it’s also her own private property. She can’t bear to take her own money to subsidize her own things.
