At that time, Wang Yonggui also shed tears of gratitude. How much did his boss trust him? Obviously, he gave his wealth and life to himself. There is nothing that can be done for Li Miao. There are only a few useful people around him now.
Moreover, Wang Yonggui's family had already been taken into slavery by him. If you can't even trust Wang Yonggui, who can you trust? This is a relationship where everything is prosperous. Don't use it if you doubt it, don't doubt it if you employ it.
I believe Wang Yonggui can see clearly, and he has a bright future. Besides, this era is very contract-heavy, and there is no place for those who betray their trust in this society.
This time, Li Miao came to Qingzhou to give Wang Yonggui a task. The first is to promote high-yield seeds from the north, mainly sweet potatoes. It’s not just about making money. The second is to take in some craftsmen to prepare for the construction of large ships.
That is to say, start with farm tools and small sea boats, and continue to train the craftsmen. Now Qingzhou farms are beginning to use high-quality agricultural tools, which may also be the most advanced agricultural tools of this era. First of all, the material itself is not much worse than the fine iron used to make weapons in this era.
In addition, Li Miao made some improvements to agricultural tools. Now Li Miao's Qingzhou farmers' work efficiency has improved by an unknown amount. But local farmers in Qingzhou still buy very little. After all, the price is not cheap either. Li Miao estimates that more and more farmers will buy it in the future. Farmers who have used it know that it is worth the money.
These craftsmen were all of low status originally. Of course, they are also of low status now that they are adopted as domestic slaves by Li Miao. However, the living environment and treatment are completely different from before. They now eat well and live well. There are also monthly cases available.
Craftsmen with outstanding skills are paid better. Moreover, the family members of the craftsmen also joined the slave registration. Li Miao still liked to collect one by one. Stability was the most important thing. Their lives have improved many times compared to before. Li Miao once talked with Wang Yonggui about treating domestic slaves and villagers well.
Let them use their hearts to their own advantage, and also emphasize that craftsmen are a huge asset and must be treated well.
In this era, craftsmen were all lowly and were the lowest class in society. No one looked down upon them and their lives were extremely difficult. It is difficult to even make ends meet, let alone support a family. Their situation is far worse than that of farmers.
Soon this group of craftsmen came to terms with it, and in the past half year or so, there has been an endless stream of craftsmen who have come to seek refuge. Wang Yonggui also refused to accept anyone who came. His boss said that these people were all wealthy, so they took them as slaves, including their families, and placed them all on the island, silently.
So far this year. Li Miao has had a good harvest. In April, Xiao Min gave birth to a son and a daughter within a few days of each other. By July, Kerr gave birth to another son. Li Miao now has two sons and one daughter.
Originally, Li Miao was a new scholar. There is a three-month holiday, but considering that Li Miao has been working at the Hanlin Academy for half a year in October, he will decide where to go next.
One, continue to stay in the Hanlin Academy. Second, transfer to other ministries. Third, go somewhere to exercise.
I haven't finished reading the key Hanlin Academy book yet. And it’s only about one-tenth. Li Miao is not someone else. He doesn't know how to watch. Now half a year has passed, and he has only watched a very small part.
You must know that reading books will help him better understand the world and increase his Taoism. So he was hesitating, and also accelerated his progress in selecting key books to read.
After the autumn harvest, two local officials recommended Li Miao to the emperor. One is Zhang Jiye, the magistrate of Qingzhou, and the other is Wang Jianqi, the magistrate of Jintan County. They all recommended that Li Miao was good at improving agricultural plant seeds. Li Miao provided the seeds for a bumper grain harvest in their area.
Although Li Miao has received the good fortune of a bumper crop harvest, Li Miao still deserves the credit. In fact, the two local officials were just asking for his blessing. Besides, Li Miao is now a scholar of the Hanlin Academy, and his teacher is the popular Master Li Shouzhong.
Li Miao himself has a bright future. An eighteen-year-old scholar of Hanlin Academy. And Li Shouzhong, the backstage guy. The two local officials are also good people, and they can make a good relationship by recommending Li Miao.
Besides, Li Miao’s contribution is not small. Wang Jianqi himself is also very close to Li Miao. This Qingzhou magistrate seems to be extraordinary. He is also deliberately trying to be nice to Li Miao.
Li Miao felt that he should discuss it with his teacher Li Shouzhong. Can it work? Qingzhou Zhizhou is a good choice. Zhang Jiye is already inclined to be transferred. He is going to be promoted. Hanlin Academy book. There will still be a chance to see it in the future. The position of Qingzhou Zhizhou is too attractive to him.
If we can win Qingzhou to know the state. on the one hand. The promotion of high-quality seeds such as sweet potatoes, potatoes, corn, and wheat can be vigorously developed in Qingzhou and its surrounding areas. The second aspect. It can be more conducive to the development and manufacturing of sea-going ships. Get ready for your future maritime career.
There is a teacher in the court, so I don't have to worry about being scolded, which is okay if I think about it, but I don't know if it is a blessing or a curse to be far away from Jia's house. There's certainly no harm in staying away from the court. But it’s better to wait and see.
After all, the allure of the Twelve Golden Hairpins is not small, and the key is related to his skills, which has been confirmed by senior sister Li Wan.
After leaving office today, I started writing letters home. The eldest son will soon have a hundred-day feast. Grandma wrote a letter asking Li Miao to name the three children. After thinking about it, Li Miao’s family is now also the lintel of the Jinshi family, and the future children. When ranking according to seniority, we rank according to the four directions: Run, Ze, Xiang, Zi, Zao, Fu and Fang.
Li Miao began to name his children. Da Zhangmin's son was his first child in this world, and his eldest son was named Li Runwen. Ker's son, his eldest son, was named Li Runye, and Zhang Min's daughter was named Li Xianghe.
to be honest. When the child is older, he can be brought to his side. The survival rate of children these days is not high. By his side, the channeling of his true energy can ensure that everything is safe. Grandma and mother also have to come together to enjoy family happiness.
At this moment, Li Shi came to report. General Jia She came to visit. This is the first time that the master of Rong Ning's Second Mansion has visited. It seems that his relationship with Rong Ning's second house has begun.
"Please quickly". Li Miao immediately greeted him. Li Miao: "General Jia's visit is too late to welcome him from afar." Jia She smiled and said, "My dear nephew, you're welcome."
Li Miao handed over the greeting card as soon as he moved into Rongning Street. At that time, Li Miao was a civil servant, so it was appropriate for him to visit the landlord on his property. But neither Rongning nor the other two houses made an appointment.
Obviously, people haven't taken it seriously yet. So this is the first meeting between both parties. Li Miao passed the Jinshi examination, and both Rongning and Ningfus also paid tribute to him.
In the living room, after the two of them sat down respectively, Qiu Sheng brought tea. Jintan Maoshan tea. What Li Miao took out to entertain the guests was the best of the best in the inner space. There won't be any on the market at all. Although the aura has been wiped away, the quality is really good.
Jia She took a sip and said, "Good tea." Only teacher Li Shouzhong enjoyed this tea all year round. Although the aura has been wiped away, it still has health-preserving effects. Li Shouzhong also deeply felt the filial piety of his disciples.
Even if there were guests at Li Shouzhong's home, he would never serve him tea. This was a sign of filial piety from a closed disciple. How could he share it with others?
The tea sold in Li Miao's own tea shop is also much inferior. Because you have to be on par with other tea shops. Otherwise, life as a companion will be impossible. Then you may not stop. After all, Li Miao is a low-key person. Nor do they rely on tea to make money to support their families.
