"Yes," Han Du continued, "the food produced in the fields will never be enough for the people of the Ming Dynasty. If we only rely on the output of the fields, it is not surprising that people in the Ming Dynasty starve to death every year."
"But this sea is different. The fish in it are caught this year, and there will be more next year. They are inexhaustible. These are all meat. You people, after two months of hard work, can harvest a year's rations. . If you let the imperial court come to fish, it is not impossible that one day can be worth two months of your fishing."
"In this way, as long as 100,000 people go to sea to fish, the Ming Dynasty will have several times more food." Han Du looked at Luo Guo with a smile, "If you harvest several times more food every year, you will still have Are you worried that there will be no food to eat in the famine years?"
Luo Guo was stunned. When he saw Han Du's sincere eyes, he suddenly came back to his senses and sincerely saluted with his fists: "Since I have such a benevolent heart, I think about the people of the world. Even if the common people are ruined, they will still help me win." There are enough fish. Even if the grass people die, they are still willing to do so."
"Grandpa, I don't want you to die, I don't want you to die..." Daisi and Luo Guo depended on each other, but now they misunderstood their grandfather's words. Thinking that grandpa was going to die, he naturally grabbed the lapel of Luo Guo's clothes and refused to let go.
In desperation, Daisi turned to Han Du and said, "Brother, please don't let my grandpa die. As long as you don't let my grandpa die, Daisi will listen to you in everything."
"Don't worry, your grandpa won't die, and you will all live a better life." Han Du put his finger on Daisi's little face, raised his head and asked, "Daisi, is that your name?"
After listening to Han Du's words, he burst into tears and turned into a smile. He nodded naively, "Well, my name is Daisi. Thank you, big brother. As long as big brother keeps my grandfather alive, Daisi will listen to big brother in everything."
Han Du raised his head and asked Luo Guo, "How come you got such a name? Does this ribbon have any meaning?"
Luo Guo laughed and said: "Daisi is just a small hairtail. Farmers always give them a cheap name to support themselves."
"It's easy to make a living," Han Du said noncommittally, "but using this ribbon as a name is not very good."
After pondering for a while, Han Du said again: "Oh, since your surname is Luo, she will naturally take your surname. How about calling her Luo Daisi? The Dai of eyebrows is Dai, and the thought of missing is Si."
"Brother, what is Meidai?" Daisi asked in confusion. If it was something else, she might not have the courage to ask Han Du. But after all, this is related to her name and is closely related to her, so naturally we have to ask clearly.
Han Du pinched his baby-fat face and said with a smile: "My eyebrows are green and green, and my pupils are cut by autumn water. There are countless kinds of charms, which are more beautiful than flowers and more fragrant than jade. This is to praise your picturesque eyebrows." the meaning of."
The little girl was confused and couldn't understand what Han Du meant. She only heard two words of praise and laughed happily. "Grandpa, my name will be Luo Daisi from now on, okay?"
"Okay, okay..." Luo Guo looked at Han Du in shock. Even though his granddaughter kept pulling him, he still didn't fully come back to his senses.
When naming a child, you can't just name it randomly. Even in modern society, the elders only name the younger ones when they are truly worshiping their godfather or adoptive father.
In other words, Han Du gave Luo Daisi a name, which means he has a responsibility towards her. This responsibility includes teaching Luo Daisi to grow up, and even her weddings and funerals must be known to Han Du.
Luo Guo never thought in his wildest dreams that Daisy would get involved with an uncle. With lingering fear, I dare not accept such a huge favor, and I have the intention to refuse it, but I am still reluctant to give it up. He was old, and there was a possibility that he would never be able to open his eyes again if he fell asleep that day.
What would Luo Daisi do if he was gone?
Now there is an uncle who is willing to take over this responsibility, and Luo Guo really can't say no. With this relationship with her uncle, Luo Daisi can at least live her life in peace. Even a wonderful life that he had never imagined.
For Luo Daisi's future, Luo Guo also risked his life completely.
Fu'er stood next to Han Du and said, "Uncle, as long as you have a destiny, the common people will not hesitate to die."
Han Du glanced at him and after thinking for a moment, he understood why Luo Guo said these words.
Sa Ran smiled and said, "Do you think Uncle Ben is plotting against you?"
Luo Guo stood silently. Apart from this, he couldn't think of any other reason.
Han Du patted his shoulder and said, "You are overthinking. Uncle Ben named Daisy because he saw that she was more spiritual. What you can do for Uncle Ben is to find the fish quickly."
"Uncle, don't worry. As long as there are boats, ordinary people can go out to sea to find fish now." Luo Guo said firmly, and at the same time, the stone in his heart fell to the ground, and his worries were gone.
Maybe my uncle really got interested and named Daisy. I didn’t expect that Daisi would have such an opportunity, she was really blessed by her ancestors.
You want a boat, right? How simple that is!
"Jiang Ming." Han Du shouted softly.
"The end will be here."
"Send the order, the navy is here to assemble."
"As ordered." Jiang Ming replied solemnly. He immediately got on his horse and galloped away into the distance.
"Zhang Chao." Han Du continued to order.
"The end will be here."
"Go to the county government here with the document from the Ministry of Industry and ask the county magistrate to immediately summon the corvee and craftsmen to come here and start building the plank road."
"As commanded."
Zhang Chao was about to leave, but was stopped by Han Du.
"Take this man with you and hand it over to the county magistrate." Han Du pointed at Lu Jian on the ground.
"Yes." Zhang Chao grabbed Lu Jian with a ferocious smile and threw him on the horse. "Come here you."
How could a bad old man like Lu Jian be the opponent of a strong military general like Zhang Chao? He was pinned down by a hand on the horse's back, unable to move, and left with a bumpy ride.
Luo Guo didn't understand why Han Du let Lu Jian go so easily, and looked at him doubtfully.
Han Du smiled and explained: "Don't worry, as long as the county magistrate is smarter, he will know how to give an explanation to Uncle Ben."
"Then what if he's not smart?" Luo Daisi asked confusedly.
Han Du looked at the sea and said quietly: "Then he will be the county magistrate for the rest of his life."
When Luo Guo heard this, he couldn't help but feel a sense of sadness in his heart, and at the same time he felt relieved. In order to keep his official position, the county magistrate would probably kill him even if he was close to Lu Jian. The closer the relationship is, the harder it is to deal with Lu Jian. Otherwise, how could he prove that he had nothing to do with Lu Jian?
But the uncle didn't say anything from beginning to end. Even if someone investigates, they can't find fault with the uncle. The uncle even took the initiative to hand the person over to the county magistrate, and everything the county magistrate did was on his own initiative.
