On the south bank of Haihe River, spring is bright.

The scene of more than 100,000 people waving the shovel in their hands and constantly adding soil to the embankment around the inner pier was very spectacular.

So many people are very efficient at working at the same time. They surrounded a large polder of 3,000 acres on the first day of yesterday alone.

Last night, Li Chengqian ordered people to set fire in the enclosed polder. The wild fire burned all the hay from last year and the fresh young teeth in the poldered poldered to black and gray overnight.

Today, some old and weak have begun to plant mulberry trees on the field dam that just piled up yesterday. When the wildfires are completely extinguished tomorrow, someone will go in to sort out the fields.

Hundreds of thousands of poor people who had nothing had their own eyes, and they felt very excited when they saw that they surrounded three thousand acres of high-end paddy fields in one day. The experienced old farmer saw such fertile land and cried while telling the people around him: There will definitely be a good harvest this year.

Although these people were tired for a day yesterday, they were even more energetic and full of energy today.

According to Li Chengqian's plan, the more than 300,000 people need to have more than 30,000 mu of polder fields, and then the southern part of the polder fields can be sorted out. This place can produce millions of acres of good rice fields.

You should know that in history, the Tianjin area was developed by the Liao Kingdom during the Northern Song Dynasty. At that time, the climate in the north was far colder than that in the Zhenguan period. Now, Li Chengqian stationed on the field dam, and there were withered and yellow weeds dozens of miles south.

If all these places are cultivated into farmland, it will temporarily meet the needs of Yandu. Of course, this requires more manpower support.

Li Chengqian suddenly threw a large iron shovel wet soil onto the field dam that was already 1.78 meters high, then placed the shovel on the ground and hugged the shovel with both arms, standing there gasping.

Looking at the more than ten transparent bubbles in the palm of my hand, I lamented in my heart: I have suffered all this time that I have never suffered in my two lifetimes.

Seeing this, Wang Fangyi hurriedly waved several shovels, threw the wet soil in front of Li Chengqian into the field dam, and whispered: "Your Highness the Prince has not come here now, so you can rest for a while."

Li Chengqian looked at Wang Fangyi and said, "I don't expect Fang Yi to be a gentry, and he studied martial arts since he was a child, and he did farm work so easily."

Wang Fangyi looked dark and whispered: "When my father passed away, I was only eight years old. My grandmother ordered me to live outside the city with my mother. I would lead my servants to repair the fields and plant mulberry and hemp every year."

Li Chengqian vaguely knew that Wang Fangyi's father had died early, and Wang Fangyi's grandmother did not like Wang Fangyi's mother.

His grandmother was Li Yuan's sister and had been named a princess at that time. He talked about it at home. Wang Fangyi and his son were really sad for a while, and this period also left a deep impression on Wang Fangyi.

Li Chengqian reached out and patted Wang Fangyi on the shoulder and said, "Wealth and blessings will bring prosperity to my life; poverty and humbleness will make you happy, and you will be able to achieve mediocrity."

Wang Fangyi lowered his head and thought, and immediately said happily: "Thank you the Prince's teachings, can the Prince of Crown Prince write this sentence to the minister?"

Li Chengqian looked at Wang Fangyi and asked with a smile: "You are not considered a great achievement now, right?"

Wang Fangyi scratched his head awkwardly when he heard this, and didn't know how to answer.

"Okay, I'm almost done. Go and see how many people will be put in." After Li Chengqian said that, he endured the heart-wrenching pain from his hands, grabbed the shovel again and prepared to work.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince, let's forget it. The people here know that Your Highness the Crown Prince is also working here and will not have any other thoughts." Wang Fangyi whispered.

Li Chengqian shook his head with a serious expression and said, "No, I can't feel at ease if the food on the sea is less than a day."

No food is a time bomb. Once the food here is eaten up, the food from the sea does not come.

No one knows what hundreds of thousands of people who are facing a shortage of food can do. So Li Chengqian can only try to contact the people here and increase the trust of both parties.

There were more than 200 guards working around Li Chengqian, who helped him work while protecting him.

From time to time, Wang Fangyi would attract a few poor people to Li Chengqian, dig soil with Li Chengqian, and chat with Li Chengqian for a few days.

This will allow more people to come into contact with Li Chengqian and make them feel more at ease.

When Wang Fangyi heard this, he stopped persuading him, and carried the iron shovel and walked towards the guards. Li Chengqian took advantage of this time to take a break.

After a while, Wang Fangyi led a few poor people carrying shovels and came in. When Li Chengqian saw it from afar, he bent down and squeezed the soil and threw it into the field dam.

"Your Highness, the people of the Crown Prince, come to help you dig soil." Wang Fangyi shouted loudly when he led the poor to six or seven steps away from Li Chengqian.

Li Chengqian stopped the work in his hand when he heard the sound, turned around and stood with a shovel, and looked at the poor people led by Wang Fangyi with a smile and said, "The Lone King has never done these jobs before, and he digs slowly, so please help me."

Li Chengqian said as he turned his eyes on one of the young men, and saw that this man was different from the other thin skinny poor people.

The young man has a thick skeleton and a burly figure. His two bright eyes were quietly looking at Li Chengqian.

Li Chengqian walked forward with a shovel and looked at the young man carefully, but he saw that although he was wearing a short burlap coat, there was no patch on his clothes. Although the exposed calves were covered with mud and water, he could still see that there were thick leg hair on his legs.

Li Chengqian looked at Wang Fangyi in confusion. When Wang Fangyi saw Li Chengqian's appearance, he shook his head slightly at Li Chengqian. Obviously he didn't know how this person came in.

"The grass-roots pay homage to His Highness the Crown Prince."

The poor people who came in with Wang Fangyi had long been guided by Wang Fangyi. They walked five steps in front of Li Chengqian and bowed to Li Chengqian.

When the young man saw someone saluting, he hurriedly followed him to saluting Li Chengqian.

Li Chengqian no longer paid attention to the young man and smiled and said, "Let's just flat, let's quickly put this section of the field dam."

"Hey!"

Several poor people hurriedly walked to the edge of the field dam and bent down and cut the soil. The burly young man also hurriedly followed him to work, but he wanted to lean against Li Chengqian intentionally or unintentionally. Seeing this, Wang Fangyi hurriedly protected Li Chengqian behind him.

"Your Highness, how can you rest for so long during lunch? If you take a short break, you will definitely dig more." A poor man asked Li Chengqian while digging the soil hard.

After seeing the effect, these poor people wanted to eat or drink to surround the polder fields.

When Li Chengqian saw someone asking, he smiled and said to everyone loudly: "We have nearly 400,000 people here. Before the Qingming Festival, 600,000 mu of land must be produced, and even the polder fields must be enclosed for more than 30,000 mu. There are more than 20 days left from now to the Qingming Festival.

If you have to surround the fields, you have to weed and work hard like this. It will take at least two more months to plant the rice seedlings. If you work hard now, you may not be able to do it for long, everyone will be exhausted."

Li Chengqian's words brought out all the bright future prospects. He heard these poor people in great enthusiasm and couldn't know how to express their beautiful mood at this time.

After a long time, he laughed foolishly and said, "Your Highness the Prince is really the God of Fortune for us poor people. We must follow His Royal Highness to do a good job."

Li Chengqian showed a gratified smile when he heard this, and immediately noticed that the young man was looking at him in a hidden way. Li Chengqian looked at him with a smile, just as if he didn't see his strangeness.

Seeing this, the young man hurriedly withdrew his gaze and continued to work.

Next, while dumping the soil, Li Chengqian answered some questions to these poor people, which strengthened their confidence.

Wang Fangyi was always on guard against the young man approaching Li Chengqian.

Finally, with the joint efforts of everyone, the field dam was finally repaired.

When Li Chengqian was about to switch to the next section of Tianba, Wang Fangyi sent someone to send away the poor who were invited in to work with them.

Several poor people bowed to Li Chengqian happily and left. Only the burly young man looked at Li Chengqian and didn't want to leave.

Seeing this, Wang Fangyi's face suddenly became cold.

"This person doesn't seem to be a poor man, right?"

The young man turned a right face when he heard this, bowed to Li Chengqian and said, "Caominnan and Duan Shaolong meet with His Royal Highness."

"Nanhe? Is Nanhe County, Xingzhou?" Li Chengqian asked.

"That's right." Duan Shaolong didn't dare to raise his head.

"What did you do when you come here to meet the Lone King?" Li Chengqian said.

Duan Shaolong heard this and said, "Caomin, Caomin is not why, he just wants to come to see His Royal Highness."

"Um?"

Li Chengqian nodded in confusion.

"Take it!"

Wang Fangyi immediately shouted.

The two guards next to him immediately stepped forward and grabbed Duan Shaolong's arms, and wanted to take him down.

Duan Shaolong was very scared when he saw this and said anxiously: "Your Highness, the people who are honest, are willing to tell the truth."

"Let him talk."

Li Chengqian still smiled and said authentically.

Duan Shaolong hurriedly said, "Caomin heard that the prince was going to arrange the poor people in Hebei Road. Some people said that the prince was kind-hearted, and some people said that the prince wanted to treat these poor people as coolies, so they scrambled in to take a look."

When Li Chengqian heard this, he became interested and thought to himself: Is this Shaolong a knight?

"Tell me, what have you seen now."

Duan Shaolong saw this and broke free from the guards, and said with a smile: "The Caomin saw a generation of saints. Han Feizi said: Yu is the king of the world. He holds a plow and a bolt and is the first to the people. His thighs have no thighs and no hair grows in his hair. Even if the prisoners work hard, he will not suffer from this.

His Highness the Crown Prince works with the people as the crown prince. What is it if he is not a saint?"

Han Feizi's words mean that the monarchs in the world during the Yu period were not as good as prisoners because people at that time were not as good as those who later generations.

"Are nonsense?" Wang Fangyi was furious when he heard this.

"Do you know that the article "Han Feizi" also said a famous saying throughout the ages?" Li Chengqian looked at Duan Shaolong and asked lightly.

"Uh!" Duan Shaolong lowered his head guiltily.

Seeing that Duan Shaolong had indeed not read "Han Feizi" carefully, Li Chengqian said directly: "Han Feizi said: Confucianism uses literature to disrupt law, and heroes use martial arts to violate the ban."

"Ah!" Duan Shaolong was stunned.

"Take it!" Wang Fangyi shouted again.

Li Chengqian said disrespectfully: "You brought him away. He did not act rudely by the side of the Lone King, so he could not be convicted of this."

After saying that, Li Chengqian waved his hand to the dungeon Shaolong and said, "Go away!"

As he said that, Li Chengqian turned around and limped towards the next section of Tianba.

Duan Shaolong looked at Li Chengqian's back and his eyes turned red unconsciously. After a while, he raised his arms and wiped his eyes suddenly, carrying the shovel to dig the fields elsewhere.

Wang Fangyi watched Duan Shaolong walk away, hurriedly stepped forward to stop Li Chengqian and said, "Your Highness, your hands are already full of water, so you'd better stop doing it."

Li Chengqian reached out to pull away Wang Fangyi, and walked forward and said, "The Lone King has been recuperating for some time ago, and his body has become weaker and weaker. I have become more busy these days. Although there are blisters on my palms, my spirit is getting better and better."

Wang Fangyi, who was following Li Chengqian, stopped hearing this. When he didn't know how to persuade him, he suddenly heard a sound of horse hooves coming from a distance.

Wang Fangyi looked at the sound and saw a guard wearing soft armor riding a fast horse to the outside of the pier. The guard turned over and got off the horse and ran to Li Chengqian and others, and said unhurriedly: "I will meet His Highness, His Highness, and more than 100,000 people are coming to us to the west of General Wang."

"Who is it? How far is it from here?" Li Chengqian asked hurriedly.

"It's like a poor man. It's five or six miles away."

"What does it mean to be a poor person? Is it a poor person?" Wang Fangyi said angrily.

"It looks like dressing, but it doesn't move like it." The guard said in confusion.
