In fact, what Zhao Feng proposed was just a very simple method of making compost.
Compared with farmyard manure, which can only provide a single source of fertilizer, compost can not only pile up fallen leaves, straw, etc., but also make the elements contained in the fertilizer richer.
At the same time, another benefit of composting is that through reasonable proportions, nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium and other elements needed by many kinds of crops can be produced.
After targeted release, crop yields can be increased, which is an advantage that previous fertilizers cannot match.
After all, many crops require different trace elements. If you throw all the fertilizers into the ground regardless of the trace elements they need, not only will there be no way to make these crops grow better, but it will cause excess fertility and make some crops grow better. Weeds are growing like crazy.
Yu Ruhai didn't know anything about compost and fertilizer, but when he heard that these things could increase crop yields by half, he nodded excitedly and said.
"Okay, anyway, there are plenty of these things, and it's not complicated to collect them. It just allows the common people to do more of this kind of work!"
"After all, although we provide work-for-relief, we cannot let these people do some heavy physical work, otherwise it will be almost the same as doing hard labor!"
Zhao Feng nodded slightly, and that was exactly what he meant. The main purpose of working-for-relief was to distribute the money to these people through a reasonable method.
But if these people are asked to do some very heavy physical work, not only will they not be able to survive, but it will increase their burden.
After formulating this plan, Yu Ruhai made a decisive decision and directly asked the government officials to select some more trustworthy people as foremen, and then asked these foremen to organize the people to form contracting teams.
After all these government officials were sent out, Yu Ruhai sighed and said to Zhao Feng.
"Now I realize that inviting you to my side was indeed the wisest choice!"
"In this case, don't call me sir, just call me uncle. You are my master on the surface, but in private we treat each other as uncle and son."
"What do you think?"
Zhao Feng was a little surprised, then he held his hands and said.
"Sir, you are really flattering me like this. I was just a country boy before. How can I afford such kindness from you?"
Yu Ruhai smiled, waved his hand, and said to Zhao Feng.
"I have always treated talented people with great courtesy."
"It just so happens that I still have some official documents that I haven't processed here. If you know some official documents, why not process them with me and let me see how good your official document skills are."
Zhao Feng hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded.
Zhao Feng and Yu Ruhai were handling official documents here. The government officials outside quickly found some trustworthy people. After telling them about the contractor, those people agreed very excitedly.
In their opinion, if this matter can be done well, not only can they win the favor of the prefect, but they can also accumulate good popularity for themselves. Why not do it?
But the news about what happened here quickly leaked out, letting everyone in the Liu family know about it.
After all, in order to encourage these common people to enthusiastically come to work in the government office, it is impossible to hide this matter.
Therefore, the people of the Liu family only need to inquire a little bit to guess why the government office did this.
"Hmph, they actually dared to touch our Liu family's money. They really rebelled against him!"
"Only when our Liu family agrees will he be able to be the prefect. If our Liu family doesn't agree, he will probably be the prefect at his end!"
The people of the Liu family discussed it and called Liu Cang back, who was in charge of the treasury, and asked Liu Cang to use this matter as an excuse to attack the prefect Yu Ruhai.
Liu Cang agreed wholeheartedly. Last time, Yu Ruhai made Liu Cang feel a little resentful. Unexpectedly, this time the new master wanted to reach out to the treasury. Wouldn't this cost his life?
If this new master is not allowed to know who is the earth emperor of this nostalgic city, I am afraid that this new master will rebel in the future!
So Liu Cang took the account books in the treasury and came to the government office angrily.
After Zhao Feng helped Yu Ruhai handle official documents for a few days, Yu Ruhai once again had a great change in his impression of Zhao Feng. Unexpectedly, Zhao Feng was not only extremely flexible in his thinking, but also came up with very brilliant ideas. , also has a very rare talent in handling official documents.
In fact, official documents have always been a headache for local officials in various places, because this official document not only needs to report the policies conveyed from above to the local people, but also reports some local opinions, and there are some comparisons. Important things can even reach Heaven.
Under such circumstances, if the official documents are not well written, it is easy for the officials above to think that your political performance is not good. If you are offered another contribution at the end of the year, then your career as an official may be over.
And if there is no way to make the policies passed down from above known and supported by the people, it will easily trigger other changes in the local area.
Therefore, this official document is very difficult to write, not only to show your ability, but also not to exaggerate your ability.
But looking at the official documents written by Zhao Feng made Yu Ruhai very satisfied, because the official documents written by Zhao Feng were not only very organized, but also some of the words and phrases in them were eye-opening for Yu Ruhai.
Yu Ruhai was looking at the official documents written by Zhao Feng, admiring them with great satisfaction. At this time, Liu Cang suddenly broke into the office, went straight to the lobby, and threw the thick account book in his hand directly in front of Yu Ruhai.
"Master Prefect, what do you mean?"
Yu Ruhai looked at Liu Cang, frowned suddenly, and asked coldly.
"What do you mean? If you don't manage your treasury well, why did you come to the government office?"
Liu Cang sneered, opened his account book, and said to Yu Ruhai.
"Master Prefect, of course I came here because of some issues in the treasury!"
"What is stored in the treasury is the tax revenue that will be handed over to the court this year, but why are there only so few grains handed over from various places this year?"
"Moreover, the commercial taxes paid by merchants in each county are very small, so there is no way to complete this year's tax collection task. Isn't the prefect afraid that the court will punish you?"
