"Thank you for your kindness, long live my emperor!"
Zhao Dashan and his family knelt on the ground, thanked the emperor for his kindness, and raised his hands to receive the order.
The rewards this time were in two batches, with a very large quantity, including hundreds of pieces of brocade, two boxes of gold, two boxes of jewelry, several boxes of jade, as well as vases, screens, furnishings, etc... The officials came from the carriage After moving it down, the whole yard suddenly became splendid, and the sounds of villagers sucking in a breath of cold air kept ringing around.
"Everyone, please get up." The magistrate raised his hand, "The imperial court has re-arranged a salt and iron envoy to come to Dahe Village. This is Master Wu. Let's get to know each other."
As soon as the villagers got up, they immediately knelt down again: "The common people pay homage to Mr. Wu!"
"Everyone please get up quickly!"
Mr. Wu bent down and personally helped the old man in the front up.
Not to mention his nature, no one will show off their official power carelessly after seeing the tragic situation of the previous one.
In addition, the news of this village's deeds has spread to the capital. He is crazy to dominate here... He has a hunch that his next promotion will definitely have something to do with Dahe Village.
"I will stay in Dahe Village for a while, and I will not look up when I see you all. Is it possible that I have to kneel down to salute you every time?" Mr. Wu said with a gentle smile, "After kneeling down this time, you will not be able to kneel down again in the future. Just stand and talk."
The villagers looked at each other and breathed a sigh of relief.
This Master Wu is much better than Master He. Whether it is true or false, at least he has a decent face, which is enough.
The magistrate paused and said, "How is Sui Ruren's health?"
Zhao Dashan wiped the corners of his eyes. They were not tears of sadness, but he was too excited just now, so he burst into tears.
However, his appearance was misunderstood in the eyes of the prefect.
The magistrate let out a long sigh: "Suiru people are worried about the country and the people, and they think too much. They should take good care of their health. After I return to Huzhou, I will find a descendant of the imperial doctor to treat Suiru people..."
Zhao Ergou shook his head: "My mother is suffering from a heart disease. Heart disease requires heart medicine. Now that Dahe Village is out of trouble, my mother will gradually get better."
"Ahem!"
In the room, a violent cough suddenly sounded.
Wu Huiniang quickly turned around and entered the room. After a while, she came out with a stack of enlightenment paper, raised her hands respectfully, and handed it to the prefect: "Sir, after Sui Ruren heard that the previous drawings were destroyed by blood, every time After waking up for a moment, I would insist on drawing, and finally I would finish the drawing and ask the adults to take a look."
The prefect was overjoyed. He came to Dahe Village just for this drawing.
But Sui Ruren was critically ill and it was difficult for him to make this request.
Unexpectedly, Sui Ruren, who was in critical condition, managed to draw the drawing early despite his illness.
He picked up the drawing. The picture was very good, and all the data and specifications were carefully written on the edge of the drawing. It was pleasing to the eye.
"If you need any medicinal materials, you can write to Huzhou. I will look for medicinal materials at any cost." The magistrate said firmly, "On my behalf, tell the people of Suiru that you can rest assured and recover. This briquette will be used by me for Suiru." If Ruren spreads it and benefits the people, God will definitely record this merit on Suiru people, and Suiru people will definitely recover as soon as possible!"
After explaining the matter, the magistrate took He Yan and his group and left Dahe Village in a mighty manner.
Magistrate Shen stayed in Dahe Village for many days and it was time to leave. He gave his son a few words and chatted privately with Li Zheng for a while before leaving reluctantly.
Wu Huiniang took out two taels of silver from the house and handed them to the two brothers who were reading the imperial edict. After the two messengers thanked them, they mounted their horses and left.
Mr. Wu took the officials to Meishan to see the situation.
As soon as these people left, Dahe Village became lively.
The entire courtyard is full of luxurious and exquisite things gifted by the capital. Everyone's eyes are exhausted, and they are admiring while looking at them.
"This box of gold is so dazzling. Old lady, I have lived for more than sixty years. This is the first time I have seen so much gold."
"That's not all. Look, this box is full of jade jewelry. There are more than a dozen jade bracelets, as well as earrings and hairpins. They are much prettier than those sold in gold shops in the city."
"Da Shan Niang is now a seventh-grade child, on the same level as the county magistrate. Of course, the things she uses are better."
"Then this adobe house is no longer worthy of the status of a seventh-grade child. Do we have to build a new house?"
"..."
"Okay, stop talking nonsense." Old Mrs. Zhao came over and opened the hands that she wanted to touch but didn't dare to touch. "There are two dogs in the mountain, three cows and four eggs. Take all these things into the house quickly. Be careful. The sun has damaged it.”
Everything was moved into the house and put away, and Wu Huiniang took the small seal to Cheng Wanwan's room.
There was a small table on her bed, and paper was spread out on the table. She tried the seal on the paper, and the four words "Sui Ru Ren Seal" were printed squarely on the paper, which looked quite impressive.
Cheng Wanwan put the seal away properly.
Although a seventh-grade child was nothing, she had been promoted from the ninth grade. It was not unusual for men to be promoted continuously through meritorious service, but there were basically no women in this dynasty who could be promoted continuously.
As a Sui Ru girl, she should have gained some reputation in the imperial court in the capital.
In addition, she now has a seal, which means she has a protective umbrella. In a short time, no one will come to Dahe Village to cause trouble like He Yan.
Her goal was achieved.
Cheng Wanwan's "illness" was getting better day by day.
After Mr. Wu took office, the first thing he did was to recruit workers to build houses. One was the office building in Meishan, and the other was the dormitory where the officials lived. They were all blue brick houses. Hundreds of thousands of green bricks and tiles were transported from the city. The film was placed in the open space, and hundreds of men started working on it at the same time.
Mr. Wu's salary was higher than that of the soap workshop, forty cents a day. He came early and came home late, without taking a break at noon. He hoped to build the house as soon as possible, otherwise he would have to live in the villagers' homes, which was very inconvenient.
Cheng Wanwan's home is also busy.
When spring comes, there are so many things for her to do.
The first is the lotus root pond, which needs to be fertilized first, and then all the lotus root seeds in the wild pond on the mountain must be dug out and planted. In order to hide from others, she has to work herself, buying some lotus root seeds from the mall from time to time and planting them, two hundred acres. It took a while to plant all the lotus root ponds.
At the same time, it was to plant cotton. This was something she had planned last year. Originally, she planned to free up ten acres of land to grow cotton, but now, the court has granted her two hundred acres of fertile land, which can be used directly to grow cotton. , plant more varieties in the first year. This is a good cash crop and can make a lot of money.
However, growing cotton is not easy. You need to raise seedlings first. Before raising seedlings, you need to ask a blacksmith to make a nutrient pot soil maker...
