Yan Fengchi is quite hidden.

They had known each other for many years. Although they hadn't seen each other for several years before he came to the river, and when they arrived in Linjiang, they didn't actually see each other much, but they still exchanged letters with each other. As a result, this guy had a good wife and beautiful children in his family.

Mention less.

Tsk, tell me what's wrong? I'm not jealous of you.

Li Xingjian cursed a few times, and he and Lingzhou asked and answered questions, and the conversation was quite lively.

When they arrived at a piece of wasteland with burned weeds, Lingzhou smiled and said: "Xiao Xun said she wanted to farm, but the elders in the family did not dare to tease her with the fertile land, so our brothers burned this piece of grass on the mountain to open up some wasteland.

Let her do whatever she wants."

Li Xingjian thought to himself, your parents are quite reliable, but your brothers are not so reliable. You are doting on that girl too much. If she is a girl who wants to farm, you will open up wasteland for her. If we judge it by common sense, eight

What can a nine-year-old girl grow?

Well, that girl can't judge by common sense.

Perhaps his expression was too straightforward, so Lingzhou smiled and said, "Although Xiaoxun can be a little naughty sometimes, she doesn't really mess around. She is very sensible."

There are too many brothers in the family, and there are only three sisters in total, so of course they have to be pampered.

But Su'er is calm and steady, making it difficult for them to be brothers. Yu'er is delicate and can only pamper and protect her for fear of hurting her. Xiaoxun is different, he can make a fuss, like a

Boy, it’s natural to be closer to them.

Although sometimes I am so angry that I want to hit her, but in the past few months, hasn't she become obviously more sensible? And of course, my sister needs to be defended in front of outsiders.

Li Xingjian did not argue with Lingzhou about this. He pointed at the plow that was dragged to the wasteland by Brother Monkey and said: "How to try?"

Just as they were talking, they saw a kid riding on an old scalper waving to them.

"Brother, you said you wanted cattle to plow the land, and my father asked me to bring the cattle."

"Xiaojiu, why did you send it?"

"Brothers are busy. Xiao Shi is too young and I don't want to take him, so I came here alone."

Lingzhou stepped forward and took him off the cow. After he stood up, he asked him to pay tribute to Li Xingjian.

Xiao Jiulingye patted the ashes on his body, then handed over his hands to compile, and said crisply: "Young man Yan Lingye, I have met the county magistrate."

Li Xingjian felt that although Yanjia Village was a mountain village, it had outstanding people. Look at this five- or six-year-old child. Not only was he not afraid of strangers, he was also generous and well-mannered.

After Li Xingjian said no, he asked him how old he was and whether he was studying. Although Xiaojiu sounded childish, he answered clearly and clearly. After answering, he tilted his head and looked at Li Xingjian curiously and said: "

My father said that the county magistrate is our parent official and the most powerful person in Linjiang. But when I look at you, although you look majestic, you are not scary at all. My second uncle is just like you, so I am not afraid of him.

.”

Li Xingjian was amused and laughed: "They are all people with two eyes, one nose and one mouth. How can they be scary? Although I am a parent official, I can't say that I am the most powerful person. I see that your cousin Hao is very good at fighting, so how can I be so scary?"

He is the most powerful person. Your eldest brother is also very good at reading. It can be seen that the term "most powerful" is wrong. It can only be said that people are good at different things. Where they are good at, they are the most powerful people. Everyone is good at what they do.

You can become the most powerful person in any field. Little guy, do you understand?"

Xiaojiu nodded: "I understand. My second uncle is the most powerful in our family, because he can be an official in the future. My sister Xiaoxun is also great, because she makes toys for us, and she is very good at them. My brother Hao, he

Not great, right? He doesn't beat us. You are also great, just as great as my second uncle. My father said that all officials are great. If you are not great, you will not be able to pass the Jinshi exam and become an official! I will also be an official in the future.

Official."

Li Xingjian laughed again: "You are ambitious. How is your study going?"

"My second uncle said I was very good at reading and praised me for being smart." Xiaojiu was very immodest.

"Then you have to work hard. If you want to be a scholar and become an official, it's not enough to be smart. You have to be diligent and perseverant."

Xiaojiu nodded: "I am very diligent. I get up and study at dawn every day."

Li Xingjian stroked the boy's head and said with a smile: "Very good, keep at it."

Brother Monkey felt that this kid was talking too much, so he picked him up and put him down by the roadside, saying, "We are busy with business, so you can go and play. If there is delicious food at home, go and get it from your third sister."

When Xiao Jiu heard that there was something delicious, his eyes lit up. He saluted Li Xingjian and ran quickly to his sister Su'er's house.

Lingzhou hitched the plow to the old ox and asked Brother Monkey to drive the ox, while he was responsible for pressing the plow.

Brother Monkey has even managed the Pegasus in the Immortal Realm and driven an old scalper. Isn't that easy to capture? From time to time, he plowed about a minute's worth of land.

Li Xingjian squatted down, checked the depth of the cultivated land and the size of the soil, and couldn't help but nod.

This level of deep plowing would be difficult to achieve using manual labor or the plows commonly used in today's world.

The speed is also fast enough.

It can indeed greatly improve the farming time, especially in terms of saving manpower.

If such a share-type plow, available in both spring and autumn, could be promoted on a large scale, farmers would have to put in much less effort.

The most important thing is, Li Xingjian looked at this wasteland and thought of the most important point. After saving manpower, of course it is impossible to be idle. Even without his advocacy, as long as the policy of opening up wasteland is relaxed and tax-free for five years, the people of Linjiang can

We will inevitably open up wasteland on our own. In a few years, there will be considerable tracts of fertile land in Linjiang.

Brother Monkey and Lingzhou also stopped, walked up to Li Xingjian and asked, "What do you think of the effect of plowing the land?"

Li Xingjian nodded: "It's indeed good. It can save at least three times the manpower. If there are no livestock and only manpower is used, what will be the effect?"

Lingzhou said: "We have tried it before and were unable to achieve such a deep plowing level, but it is still much better than the plows on the market, and it can save at least twice the manpower."

"That's good. The county will come forward to build a batch before spring plowing, and promote it during spring plowing. Even if the people can't afford it, they can rent it from the county government. Thanks to Hao'er, the county government happens to have a little money recently.

The income, haha, is enough to make plows."

Lingzhou said: "The threshing machine can also be promoted first by renting it. It's a pity that this season there is no way for adults to see the effect of the threshing machine with their own eyes. But Xiao Xun explained the operating principle of the threshing machine. I thought it was practical.

The effect will never be bad. You can make a batch in advance.”

Lingzhou has full confidence in his little sister.

Both the washing machine and the plow have proven practical efficiency, and there is no reason why threshing should fail.

Moreover, he had seen the threshing machine made by Xiao Xun and Hao Di, and it should indeed be usable.

In Li Xingjian's heart, Xiaoxun of the Yan family considered him Li Xingjian's old friend. He also had great trust in this precocious genius and said: "Okay, the county government is responsible for the craftsmen and materials. It's just the drawings, you have to do it."

Provide it. In addition to naming it after the Yan family, I will also give another reward to the Yan family. What reward do you want?"

Lingzhou and Brother Monkey looked at each other.
