Chapter 47 There are choices when organizing a group observation (third update)

Five days later, at the dock by the river.

Magistrate Song and other officials, as well as magistrates from Li Zhi County, watched the four people from Zhao Li controlling the ship to Nanjing.

Four days ago, they received news that they would deliver the goods today. They would set off before dawn and arrived at the village at the second quarter of the lunar month.

The villagers have already loaded the soap onto the boat and set up the fish slide designed by Hanhan.

It is a slide with turns made of bamboo, including a re-lengthened shelf where the fish is processed.

The headmaster invited everyone to have breakfast. There were extra people coming today.

There was a large team of officials. They knew that Xiaqiu Village was harvesting mugwort and polygonum from surrounding villages, so they followed up and issued notices in the county seat.

They decided on their own to exchange the dried fish they brought back and recruit those who had not yet served as laborers this year and drive them over.

The village actually had a separate channel to contact the prince and gave him a seal.

Zhu Wentian just told the officials to see if they had any letters to write to the prince and send them as well.

Strengthen their relationship with the palace, and they will be promoted to Nanjing in the future, and many people in the village will take care of them.

Magistrate Song was very grateful. He was not a fool and could see the master's thoughts.

Breakfast consists of fish porridge, fried fish segments, fish glutinous rice dumplings, and pickles.

Those who were drafted for labor service were told when they came out that they did not need to bring their own dry food and could just follow them.

These people are from poor families, so they are generally recruited to work locally, so as not to increase the burden on them.

When they saw the chief asking them to eat together, they looked at the food and swallowed their saliva.

When it came time to eat, they wolfed down as much as they agreed to eat.

"Eat slowly, don't eat to death. You can't eat anymore. I'll bring you dried fish when I get back. I won't eat it anymore!"

The head of the village refused to eat at first, and persuaded one by one, promising to give him something.

The other person then stopped rubbing his belly, as if he could eat more.

"Really?" The person being persuaded wants to confirm.

"Here, give each person twenty catties." The headman promised.

"Your village is having a good time, everyone can tell."

He found that he was different from the people in Xiaqiu Village. The people in Xiaqiu Village could not see the food on their faces.

The villagers always smile and never see the sorrow of living in embarrassment.

You can tell at a glance that the clothes are new. There are no patches. If there are patches, they are all removed and used as rags.

The table we eat together is not a patchwork of things, including plates, bowls, and plates.

"You have to be diligent...well! Sometimes the village didn't have enough to eat before, so we had to learn new methods."

The director originally wanted to say hard work, but after thinking about it again, hard work is useless.

"Yes, we need to learn!" Li Zhixian said: "Look at Xiaqiu Village. After harvesting rice, they can still plant a crop of rapeseed and hemp. Magistrate, let's..."

"Post a notice to inform the people and order people to go to each village to teach. Every acre is worth planting."

The prefect of the Song Dynasty stated that he was actually waiting for the imperial court to issue a notice to the people.

The imperial court hasn't taken action yet, so I can't wait any longer. Ning Guofu takes action first.

At least this year, the villages around Xiaqiu Village will plant crops and rent large livestock from Xiaqiu Village.

There are already livestock in the village that have given birth to calves, which will become good laborers after they are raised.

A cow can plow two acres of land a day with enough food, and a horse can plow even more.

It's just that most people can't afford to raise horses, so they have to be given fine food.

Everyone in Xiaqiu Village has to buy food to feed them, and the food grown in the village is not enough.

There were fifty people and twenty cars who came to help. After eating, they walked slowly, digested their food, and then helped unload the grass.

Not to mention twenty kilograms of dried fish, one breakfast is already worth it, it’s a profit.

"In the next month, you will deliver grass to the village from Xuancheng, go to the village for meals, and go home in the evening.

You can take whatever the village gives you and come back with us this afternoon. Don’t overeat at noon and look like a loser."

Wang Dianshi told the workers that this was the purpose of selecting these people.

The workers looked surprised. Is there still a meal?

After unloading the hay, see what kind of work is done in the village and help.

Villagers from Xiaqiu Village left a hundred vehicles to dig peat to use for the land reserved for growing wheat.

Those who had not left would lead their animals to plows and find some corners to open up some fields. Hanhan said that they would plant garlic this year.

Seeing the huge convoy going out, the helpers were frightened again.

It’s no longer a matter of having a good life, what’s going on?

After unloading the hay, they went to the headman and asked if they could find any work.

When they arrived at the paddy field, they were speechless when they saw rice and jute mixed together.

Eat at noon. Today we have pork. Powders of braised pork are served on the table, along with dry rice.

They looked on, silent.

Seeing their expressions, the officials laughed secretly in their hearts.

We deliberately let you experience it and then promote farming later to see if you will listen or not?

Zhu Wentian saw it and was observing the study group, right?

The key is that you won’t pay for the meal? I’ll give you two less fish when I leave in the afternoon.

While he was eating, he would interject a few words from time to time, skipping one word at a time and saying "hey hey hey!"

The observation group, no, it was the helpers who were eating nearby. Looking at Zhu Wentian's appearance, I thought to myself that this is the eldest son of the village, right? He is too doting, but he is a fool.

…

"It's time to eat. Girl, cut the sausages quickly. Damn it! Why can't we make it taste like this?"

In Nanjing, Zhu Yuanzhang went to see Queen Ma for lunch. Soap was delivered, along with other food.

Last time Zhou Zong brought something back and admitted his mistake by the way, he had fallen into a trap with an expert.

There is food in it. Let people try it first. If they find it is ok, everyone can eat it.

The small cakes and bacon are normal, the shrimp oil side dishes have a special taste, and the sausages are more flavorful than sausages.

I found someone to learn how to make it, but I couldn’t make it with the same taste. What’s the difference?

This time it was available again, and the people who tried it were very happy and willing to try more.

Queen Ma served the food and refused to drink at noon.

Zhu Biao holds a prescription in his hand for making soap.

"Dad, one thousand cents per pound of soda ash can be used to make eighty pieces of soap. Adding other spices and a little salt, one piece is less than twenty cents."

Zhu Biao estimated the current cost price. The last time he went to the village, he sold it to the palace for 200 yuan for a piece of soap.

"Then one kilogram of alkali is worth a thousand cash? Find the alkali mine and transport it back. Can one kilogram be worth five hundred cash?

Ah Biao! This money has to be given. I gave up the big part and left the small part for the people in the village to make a living.

If he has no money, how can he think about new things? Do you think you can make this soap all at once?"

Zhu Yuanzhang thought clearly, and the other party made it clear that soap is very cheap, so I will give you an extra fifteen thousand yuan.

Don't think about wanting everything, just sell alkali, and you can make more money from foreigners!

Empress Ma gave Zhu Yuanzhang and his son some sausages: "Boss, write a letter and ask them to give you the recipe for making sausages. Ordinary people can't eat it, so they won't keep it secret."

She found that sausages were delicious, but not as good as sausages.

The sausages were kept chilled when they arrived. Given the current solar terms, if they are stored normally, they will go bad in three days.

Who will sell it to after it is done like this? The village just eats it for itself and needs prescriptions.

"Yes, if you want to come, we will cook and eat it ourselves, and always send it chilled. Ice is not money, right?"

Zhu Yuanzhang ate a piece of sausage to support his mother-in-law.

Zhu Biao followed the meal, feeling a little helpless. He wanted to write a letter, but the other party didn't reply. Could it be that he didn't understand?

He shook his head, it was impossible. Zhou Zong said that even an old man who weaved sacks could say a few knowledgeable words. That person...

There is no more today. Thank you brothers and sisters for your rewards, monthly tickets, recommendation tickets, and collections! The farmer bows, hehehehe!
Chapter completed!
