Han Qiu seemed to have done something insignificant and did not take it to heart.
The farmers in the Han Family Residence had already spread the corn in the yard to dry, and the yellow and orange corn grains had also been picked out.
The farmers looked at the fields of grain and celebrated this year's harvest.
These corn seeds could be eaten or sown. It would be another bumper harvest year.
Her father had already sent Wu Cong back to the manor. When Wu Cong returned to the manor, he lay on the small bed. The memories in his mind were still lingering in the rapid river.
She had slipped into the water. She did not expect the current to be so strong that she was swept away in an instant.
The surface of the water rose and fell, and she even thought that she was dead.
However, all of a sudden, a hand pulled her out of the water. She felt as if she was riding on a cloud. It was extremely warm and she felt very dependable.
However, she could not remember the appearance of the person who saved her. She only remembered the big bamboo hat and straw raincoat.
He had to find his savior and thank him in person.
After Wu Chi sent Wu Chi back to his mansion, he returned to the Wei River to supervise the construction of the Wei River irrigation works. He was very grateful to the fisherman for his help. He wanted to thank the fisherman, but he was on the other side of the river when he saved Wu Chi, so he couldn't thank Wu Chi's savior.
……
Empress Zhangsun had returned to the palace of Chang 'an, but Li Shimin had not left the court.
Zhangsun Wuji begged for forgiveness. Li Shimin dismissed Zhangsun Wuji from his position as Minister of Personnel. Chang 'an Grain Director Sun Qi was corrupt. Not only was the Ministry of Revenue negligent in his duties, but Zhangsun Wuji, as the disaster relief governor, did not discover the corruption of Chang' an Grain Department. It was also a crime of oversight.
This was under the circumstances where all the civil and military officials were pleading for mercy. If not for the pleading of all the civil and military officials, Li Shimin would have issued an imperial order to push Zhangsun Wuji out and behead him.
Princess Changle surrounded Empress Zhangsun and begged her mother to take her out to play in a few days.
After Li Shimin left the court, he returned to the Dew Hall to rest. He did not go to the Hall of Political Establishment. Zhangsun Wuji was Empress Zhangsun's elder brother. Li Shimin knew that the Empress was virtuous and he did not want the Empress to be stuck between her husband and her elder brother.
If Li Shimin went back to the Administrative Hall to rest, Empress Zhangsun would like to tell him about what happened on the bank of Wei River and the expert who climbed the duckweed and crossed the river.
……
The next day, the sun was bright and clear.
Li Shimin didn't go to court. Instead, he and Fang Xuanling left Chang 'an in a long carriage and went to Han Village.
The locust plague in Lantian County had been brought under control. This was all thanks to Uncle Han.
Especially in the imperial court, Uncle Han's words about the restriction of species made all the civil and military officials shut their mouths. The more they mocked him, the more they hated him.
Li Shiming was in high spirits. As long as the famine in Youzhou was resolved and the Great Tang recovered, it could launch a counterattack against the Turks!
Every time he thought of the Turks entering the Wei River, Li Shimin would grit his teeth. The hatred of the Wei River was etched into his bones!
How could the Turks trample on the soul of Huaxia?
Li Shiming wasn't the only one who wanted to take revenge on the Turks. All the citizens of the Great Tang were seething with anger. Once the time was right, they would destroy the Turks!
Li Shiming and Fang Xuanling finally arrived at the Han Residence. The corn stalks had been laid down and the farmers were baling them up. The corn was food, and the corn stalks could be fed to livestock. The whole crop was not wasted.
These corn stalks were more popular with livestock than grass…
Li Er and Fang Xuanling entered the Han Residence in high spirits and headed to Han Qiu's residence.
"Uncle Han, we're here to disturb you again.”
"Yo, are you so free today again?”
" Uncle Han, we're here for a favor. We're not just passing by..." Fang Xuanling said fervently.
Li Shi Min looked at Han Qiu with excitement and let out a long sigh.
Seeing Uncle Han, Li Shiming seemed to have a backbone. With Uncle Han's support, the Great Tang would prosper!
Especially when the species countered each other and solved the locust plague, it made him feel proud in the court. Seeing the situation of the civil and military officials being defeated, Li Shimin felt very comfortable!
Han Qiu looked at Little Li and Old Fang indifferently. Anyway, they were all acquaintances.
" Uncle Han," Li Er said straightforwardly," we want to purchase the corn of the Han Family. We'll buy as much as we can. Could you give us some guidance on the method of farming…"
"How much for a bucket?"
"Yiguan Qian Ershi!" Fang Xuanling directly offered a high price. After Han Qiu heard the price, he glanced at the two of them. The price of grain in Chang 'an City was usually five piculs.
Qian Ershi, this was a losing business, he couldn't earn back his capital!
Unless, he had bought corn seeds to plant.
Han Qiu sized up the two of them again. He was basically certain that they were not selling the corn, but farming it.
"You guys go and buy it from the villagers. I'm not the chief of the pavilion…"
Li Shiming and Fang Xuanling looked at each other. They were both pleasantly surprised. They could have directly arranged for the Ministry of Revenue to collect the grain according to the price, but in the end, they gave up on this idea and went to the Han family residence in person.
There were some things that were better to ask Uncle Han in person.
Since Uncle Han had agreed to collect the grain, they could prepare to do so.
The reason why Han Qiu agreed to them collecting grain was also because the price they offered was very high. With such a high price to buy corn, it was definitely not the grain of an aristocratic family.
The aristocratic families and clans would definitely buy the grain at a low price and sell it at a higher price.
The reason why the grain price in Youzhou Province rose from 1000 yuan to 1000 yuan was largely due to the help of the major clans.
Every time Han Qiu thought of the aristocratic families and clans, he felt like smashing them into pieces. In a year of famine, they still had to do such a heartless thing. These aristocratic families were just trying to survive for themselves. They trampled everyone else under their feet, not caring about the lives of others!
In Han Qiu's courtyard, Li Er and Fang Xuanling were drinking tea, their faces glowing. Wei Zheng had been sent to Youzhou to provide disaster relief. The grain from the three provinces was enough to alleviate the disaster in Youzhou.
Moreover, if this kind of corn was promoted throughout the country, the people would no longer be hungry.
The locust plague in Lantian County was about to be resolved. The world was peaceful and the people were singing.
After Li Er drank a few cups of tea, he became more and more excited. When he was in the mood, Li Er's face was full of joy as he said,"Uncle Han, the world is about to be settled, and the people are about to prosper. In Uncle Han's opinion, the Great Tang should be able to stretch for thousands of years…"
Han Qiu chuckled when he heard Li Er's words. A thousand years? That was too whimsical. Which dynasty could exist for a thousand years?
Thinking of this, Han Qiu glanced at Little Li and decided to scare him to see if this guy was as she had guessed!
"A thousand years?" Han Qiu snapped. Heh, you're wrong! Dunn! The third generation died!"
Boom!
The teacup in Li Shiming's hand stopped in mid-air. The teacup that Fang Xuanling had just picked up fell to the ground with a loud thud, shattering into pieces!
Dunn! The third generation died!
Like a heavy hammer, it hit Li Er and Fang Xuanling's heads, completely stunning them!
