On the other side, Qinjiazhuang, Lantian County.
After giving lectures in the academy, Yang Zijun took Maotu to the greenhouse.
Maotu held the inkstone with both hands and said with a smile on his face:
"Miss, these rice plants grow so fast. In just ten days, they are already as high as a fingernail! At this rate, they will soon be taller than the wheat in the field!"
Yang Zijun lowered his head, holding a quill in one hand, and making notes in a notebook with the other.
After hearing what Maotu said, she smiled and nodded:
"Well, that's true. If this continues for about ten days, the rice will be as long as the palm of your hand. According to the master, you will need to dig out all these densely packed seedlings and replant them."
After hearing this, Mao Tu looked around and saw that the tenant farmers were far away from them, so he leaned towards Yang Zijun with a smile and whispered:
"Miss, are the quills and notebooks that the young master gave you useful?"
The corners of Yang Zijun's mouth raised slightly, and an unconcealable smile appeared on his face.
He put the quill pen into his sleeve, gently closed the notebook, carefully put it into his arms, and said:
"Of course it's useful."
After Qin Ming came back from Baqiao a few days ago, he happened to see Yang Zijun in the greenhouse. He was holding a wooden board in one hand and chalk in the other hand to record the growth of rice.
Qin Ming learned that since Yang Zijun took over the records of rice, he would hold a wooden board to record on it every day.
When you get back to the house, copy the contents on the board onto paper.
Seeing this situation, Qin Ming was deeply touched.
On the one hand, I admire Yang Zijun's intelligence, his ability to draw inferences from one instance and apply the academy's blackboard directly to life.
On the other hand, they lamented Yang Zijun's frugality and hands-on approach.
After all, with the current financial resources of the Qin Mansion and Yang Zijun's monthly money, there is no need to do this at all.
Even with her status as the dean of the Qin Mansion School, it is not difficult to find a few people to bring a desk over.
Not to mention paper, the paper used by the entire Zhuangzi is now produced by the company, and the cost is terrifyingly low.
So Qin Ming thought for a while, then went to the research institute, and then found Wang Wu, the paper maker in the mansion, and asked him to bind a batch of notebooks.
As for the quills, it was even simpler. He directly greeted Qin Da at noon that day, and in the evening, several big fat geese were served to the dining tables of each courtyard of the Qin Mansion.
Then Qin Ming took Xiao Qingwan and Sishe to select for half an hour before selecting a dozen goose feathers of suitable length to make a quill.
Now that he had both things, Qin Ming asked Xiao Qingwan to deliver them to Yang Zijun of Qingxinyuan.
So from that day on, when Yang Zijun went to the greenhouse to take notes, he had these two things in his hand.
Maotu saw that Yang Zijun had put away his notebook and brush, so he asked:
"Miss, have you taken all the notes for today? Can we go back home for dinner now?"
Yang Zijun shook his head when he heard this and said:
"Not yet, we have to go to the cement workshop next. If nothing unexpected happens, the government will soon start building the cement road from Chang'an to Lantian, so the output of the cement workshop must be able to keep up. OK."
When Maotu heard this, his little head immediately drooped, he held his stomach and said bitterly:
"But this slave is so hungry right now!"
Yang Zijun smiled when he heard this and pinched Maotu's cheek.
"When I went out in the morning, Wan'er prepared some pastries for me and put them on the carriage. After getting on the carriage, you can eat some pastries to cushion your stomach."
After hearing this, Maotu immediately raised his head and asked happily:
"Are there any yellow peas?"
Yang Zijun walked out and said with a smile:
"Yes, yes."

Qinjiazhuang, refugee resettlement site
Xiao Qingwan and Sishe were sitting in a small courtyard with red bricks and green tiles.
This courtyard was recently built by the Qin Mansion. The young master also gave this courtyard a very special name, called Model Siheyuan.
Xiao Qingwan asked Qin Ming why he was called this name, and Qin Ming gave her the answer at that time.
As the name suggests, all small courtyards in Qinjiazhuang will be built according to this style in the future, so they are called model courtyards.
Xiao Qingwan was instructed by Qin Ming last night to bring Si She to the refugee resettlement site early this morning.
There are three purposes for coming here,
One is to count the number of refugees who are willing to stay in Qinjiazhuang in the future and the age of each person;
The second is to announce the news that Qin Mansion is recruiting workers on a large scale;
The third is to let the people in Zhuangzi visit this model house and inform them of the cost of this courtyard.
Of course, in order to retain more people, Qin Ming asked Xiao Qingwan to add a piece of information when announcing the recruitment information.
That is to say: as long as someone in the family works in Qin Mansion, such model houses (siheyuan) can be rented or sold at low prices in the future to such farmers and people who are willing to stay in Qinjiazhuang.
Si She sat on the chair and asked worriedly:
"Wan'er, do you really want to build a hundred small courtyards like this? How much will it cost? What if no one buys it?"
When Xiao Qingwan heard this, her face couldn't help but reveal a look of reminiscence. After thinking about it, she smiled and said:
"Young Master said it doesn't matter if no one buys it. When the time comes, it can be used as a welfare and rewarded to those who have made contributions in the house."
Sishe's eyes lit up when she heard this, she stood up, took Xiao Qingwan's hand and asked with hope:
"In other words, slaves also have the opportunity to obtain such a courtyard?"
Xiao Qingwan smiled and nodded.
Sishe was overjoyed when she heard this. Her parents died early and she was taken in when she was young. Then she entered the secret guard in a daze.
My biggest wish in this life is to have a home that truly belongs to me.
Although this courtyard house is much smaller than ordinary mansions. But it is exactly the same as Sishe's ideal home.
So when she heard that if the house could not be sold, Qin Ming might reward it to the servants of the house, she was extremely excited.
At this moment, Xia Zhu walked into the room, saluted Xiao Qingwan and said:
"Manager Xiao, the two captains Shenhou and Haizhu have already spread the recruitment information in the mansion, and now many people have come to the courtyard."
"In addition, according to your instructions, Zhuyou and Jujie have already set up desks, paper and pens at the door, waiting for people to come and register."
Xiao Qingwan stood up after hearing this and said to Sishe and Xia Zhu:
"Okay, let's go get ready."
After saying that, Xiao Qingwan led the two girls out of the house.
