After receiving this news, Wang Su seemed a little restless and casually dealt with Xu Ping and Han Qi.

After a short while, Ji Ying and Ruan Yicai, the other two Jinshi in the fifth year of Tiansheng who were in the capital, came hand in hand.

After seeing the etiquette, Xu Ping said to Ruan Yi: "I heard that Tian Yin was coming to the capital a few days ago. I didn't have the opportunity to welcome you. I felt very sorry. I met in Zhongyi Village today, so I am just going to welcome you."

"Where do I say anything to me? How dare I take it?"

Xu Ping said: "Oh, we were together in the same year. Just use the words to refer to each other, and the official title will be exempted. There is no reason to appear to be separated."

Ruan Yi complained that he had offended him and sat down next door.

He was not very familiar with Xu Ping, and he had not been familiar with the news for many years, so he seemed a little restrained. When Shi Broo left Beijing, everyone's official positions were not much different. After these, Xu Ping was already arrogant, and others inevitably brought some awe.

Because Ruan Yi was proficient in music and writing, he was recommended to the museum by Yan Su and Zheng Xiang, and at the same time participated in the matter of reorganizing music in Taichang Temple. The music system is an important part of the ritual system, and it is also related to weights and measures. It has high requirements and is not just a matter of music. The ancient Chinese said that the way of heaven is normal, and this way of heaven is manifested through this set of ritual systems. One by one, it is extremely sacred for the rulers and cannot be moved easily.

Although the weights and measures have been unified since Qin Shihuang, in fact, the dynasties are still different in all dynasties, and even all walks of life in the same era are different. In terms of system, the correction ruler of Taichang Temple and Taifu Temple is one, and the one used in the market is different. The Sitianjian used the astronomical calendar and the ancient ruler passed down from Luoyang, which is inconsistent.

For the sake of business convenience, Xu Ping wanted to unify all the weights and measures of this era, but the problem was that he knew how to determine the weights and measures, but he didn't know the relationship between the rituals and the relationship between them was closely related. He had thought about it for a long time but didn't dare to take action.

This time, Yan Su was sentenced to Taichang Temple and was ordered to correct the rhythm. Xu Ping felt it was an opportunity and wanted to work with him to unify the weights and measures of the whole country. In addition, Ruan Yi participated in this matter, and it was more convenient for him to be his own in the same year.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Wang Su ordered the shopkeeper to serve the wine and food. At the same time, he cut the watermelon and grapes brought by Xu Ping, washed them and served them on a plate, and served them as a dish.

Looking at the bright color and round grains on the plate, Ji Ying said curiously: "The fruits in Yunxingzhuang are really different from other places. They have eaten grapes before, but have never seen such appearances. There is no rotten fruit in this whole ear, and there is no trace of insects and birds pecking. How can it be done?!"

The others were also curious and looked at Xu Ping.

Xu Ping smiled and said, "Don't say it, try it first. This grape is sweeter than the ones on the market. It is said that the grapes in the Western Regions are the sweetest, and my family probably has a difference."

Everyone suppressed their curiosity, each of them picked one and put it in their mouths, nodding together: "Okay, okay, it's really sweet!"

Wang Su said: "Yun Xing is not an official in the court, but even when he goes home to take care of the land, he is also a wealthy man! This kind of method of land is more proficient than that of old farmers who have been in charge of the land for many years! Isn't there any secret that he doesn't pass on?"

"Hi, what's the matter with Zhongyi? I started buying the farmland from Zhongmu. Guo Zi, the chief clerk of Zhongmu, summoned the nearby people to watch in my village. When the rice was harvested, Zhang Shiheng from Kaifeng Prefecture brought people again. I didn't hide anything."

When Xu Ping remembered that Zhang Junping, who had digged ditches in Kaifeng Prefecture to deal with floods, had passed away, he felt a little regretful. If he was still there, he would have been the only one who led the rivers and canals to Bian. Even now, Kaifeng Prefecture was able to manage wasteland and fertile land on such a large scale, thanks to his kindness to dig ditches to the south, and the flooding had been greatly reduced. At that time, Guo Zi, who was kind to him, had already served under his command. Things in the world changed, which made people sigh.

Wang Su and others did not have the thought of Xu Ping as sad as he was, and asked, "What method was used?"

Xu Ping pointed to the whole grape on the plate on the table and said, "Actually, it's not worth it. It's just that when the fruit grows, it's just a bag on it. With the bag, it prevents insects and birds from harming, and avoids wind and rain. The fruit is so neat when it ripens. Grape pears can be used this method, but no one thought of it before."

The technology of fruit bagging has been fully promoted in Xu Ping's previous life. Of course, there are still some details that need to be paid attention to, but as long as you think of this, it will not be difficult to do it. This is also due to the people of that era's pursuit of the pollution-free fruits. Fruit farmers quickly developed this technology to the extreme, and spraying pesticides on the fruits seemed out of date.

Xu Ping dealt with this matter every day in his previous life, so it was naturally not difficult to do it, and even special paper bags could be made. With this technology, Xu Pingzhuang could make money by selling paper bags.

Han Qi ate the grapes slowly, sighed and said, "Some people say, 'The prefect is only a farmer who knows how to read it.' However, Yun Xing, the only civil and military officials in the court, is the foundation of the world. Without this ability, how can he be promoted and become a servant in the past ten years in his twenties?"

"So, there is no luck in the world. It's not that we ourselves know how much Yun Xing worked hard on farming. How can ordinary outsiders understand where these achievements come from?"

Ji Ying sighed likewise, if you want to say that the opportunity is much better than Xu Ping, he was attracted by Wang Zeng as soon as he became an official, and he took it with him several times as an aide. However, if you can't make such dazzling achievements, what's the use of being valued just by others?

Xu Ping looked at the few people and couldn't help but smile, "Why did you suddenly talk about me? I feel a little embarrassed to praise me like this. Usually, don't you just say that I'm weird?"

"Don't listen to those gossips, we ourselves know it."

Han Qi waved his hand. He had the most contact with Xu Ping and knew best how Xu Ping's credit came about. He was walking on thin ice in thrilling times, and there was no strange luck at all. If he was like others, it would be strange.

Wang Su raised his glass and everyone drank for three rounds.

Xu Ping put down his wine glass and said, "When it comes to the farmland, I sorted out the things in my farm in the past few days and compiled them into a book "Farmland Collection". How to reclaim wasteland, how to arrange ditches, how to arrange personnel, how to rotate crops in each season, are all sorted out and written down. Please help me see if there are any difficult or errors in understanding, pointing out it to me to modify. This book is to make it easy for people who know how to read, and it is simple and easy to understand. The most unforgettable is to make the farmer in the field understand it. There are some days in the museum and the palace, and I have not presented articles to the court, so I wrote down what I am best at, which is better than nothing."

Wang Su said: "If there is such a good thing, we will naturally not refuse. To be honest, my village lacks such a book the most now. How much effort can we save after we have it!"

This is the farm manual for Xu Ping to this era. As long as you do it according to the contents, there will be no big deviation. In the future, some people have money to open a farm, and just buy such a book and do it accordingly. Some people even studied the book thoroughly, and they might have a skill to do it.
