Twelfth year, January

Jishui County

A drop of cool rain dropped, and the people who got off the boat were all shivering, Lai Tongyu looked at the increasingly misty sky, turned to Wang Shoutian and said: "Lord, it's going to rain, it's a good omen, the spring rain is as expensive as oil!"

Chai Jia and the others were fine, and they didn't take the spring rain as cold at all.

The group walked down the road, and the rain made the road a little muddy.

Even if it is fifteen, a large number of peasants have already come out, not to mention the wheat care, with shovels, they are already digging in the mud.

Dredging and digging ditches is a big thing, but also a hard work, men, women and children, go out together, and see many officials and wardens presiding over the work.

There were also many craftsmen who worked on the site and made many wooden spokes, which seemed to be water-making wheels.

On the earth, the waterwheel is a very ancient agricultural irrigation tool, which appeared in the time of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty and was popularized in Shu, and was widely used for agricultural irrigation in the Sui and Tang dynasties.

Waterwheels are not considered advanced technology, but due to cost reasons, they are not available everywhere.

At this time, Xue Yuan greeted him: "Lord!"

When he looked at it, he was covered in mud, and it was obvious that he was commanding with his own hands.

"Mr. Xue, how is the situation after a hard work?"

"The lord rest assured, the canal has been excavated, the climate in Shuzhong is mild, at this time the start of construction is not hindered, the waterwheel is already being built, according to the meaning of the lord, it is a big waterwheel, the car is 10 meters high, 24 wooden spokes, a car does not stop all night, enough to irrigate 300 acres. Xue Yuan said.

Wang Shoutian looked, only to see that the top of each spoke has a scraper and a bucket, when the time comes, the scraper scrapes the water, the bucket is filled with water, the river rushes, the water slowly rotates the waterwheel by the water potential, the bucket is filled with river water and is lifted up step by step, to the top, the bucket is naturally tilted, the water is injected into the aqueduct, and flows into the irrigated farmland.

"Mr. Xue has worked hard, let me introduce you, this is Lai Tongyu, I will share your worries, you can do the specific work!" Wang Shoutian said.

Lai Tongyu didn't dare to slack off, and stepped forward to salute: "Lord Xue." ”

Xue Yuan also returned the courtesy.

The two looked at each other, the atmosphere was a little weird, Wang Shoutian turned a blind eye to it, this is a matter of time, and it can be seen that Xue Yuan's instrument and Lai Tongyu are a person.

Wang Shoutian walked with a few people, looked at the channels and farmland, and said for a long time: "The people have no land and are uneasy, only when the land is settled, can there be the will of the people, and only then can there be money and grain to supply the military, Mr. Xue, what regulations do you have?"

"Lord, I will investigate on the spot, the fertile soil outside the county, 30,000 acres can be reclaimed, 10,000 acres can be left in the hands of the lord, for reward, the others are a little poor, but you can also open another 10,000 acres, 30,000 acres are given to thousands of households, but it is just right, of course, there are specific increases and decreases. ”

"The minister thinks that even if the people are divided into a front and back, the original 500 households, built the city and reclaimed, have made a dead force, can be divided into 30 acres of foot land, new 200 households, participate together, can be divided into 25 acres, if the lord of the public soldiers, take the mountain people down the mountain, such mountain people, no inch, can be divided into 20 acres. ”

"As for the military merit reward, non-ministers can intervene, please judge it. Xue Yuan said.

Wang Shoutian looked at it and said, "Mr. Xue's words are very good. ”

Although Xue Yuan's words are very good, they also hint at the first-come, first-served seat shift, but who can not be selfish, and besides, it is also beneficial to the establishment of order, Wang Shoutian does not mind.

"The field is fundamental, and the survey of the acres of land is distributed according to the household, which is a major policy, not an ordinary detail, and then make a booklet and report it, and the two of you must be attentive. ”

Xue Yuan and Lai Tongyu hurriedly bowed down to respond to the "promise".

"The soldiers will be used in the next month, so you don't have to worry about running out of food, the food in the bandits can be supplied for at least a year. Wang Shoutian said unhurriedly: "However, ICBC must also verify and report to me!"

There are three generals in his hands who can attack the city and plunder the land, and the soldiers have been strictly trained, if even the bandits can't be defeated, this is really ridiculous.

Chai Jia and the others followed, they couldn't interject on these topics, and they were not qualified to interject, but their eyes were different.

When they first met, Wang Shoutian was only a few soldiers, but he didn't feel that when he arrived in Jishui County, he saw tens of thousands of acres of fields and thousands of people farming, all of which were about the right way to govern the people, and he couldn't help but be awe-inspired.

"It's fifteen today!" Wang Shoutian said suddenly.

"Yes, fifteen. ”

Wang Shoutian stared at the vast fields, and then looked at the mountains in the distance, a smile flashed, and said: "There are two gentlemen, I will rest assured, and when the wheat is harvested in May, and the fields are divided according to households, this foundation will be decided, and all of you present are my confidants, and I also said directly - the marshal has promised me that after the harvest in May, if there are thousands of households, the county will be officially established, and I will be the first county commander, from the seven products." ”

"Take advantage of this, you can add official products, and it will not be in vain to work hard. ”

"Don't dare, it's all Lord Hongfu. ”

Wang Shoutian smiled slightly, collected the grain, divided the field, the people's hearts were completely stabilized, and his luck also made a breakthrough.

If it is a peaceful era, it is extremely difficult to catch up with this kind of Tianhuang nobles, now it is a troubled time, the order is destroyed, as long as the army and the people are in control, the number of qi belongs, who rises and falls, who is the master of ups and downs, we have to see again.

Moreover, this time Wang Shoutian also has a purpose, that is, he has now recruited people with a number of qi, and has gathered more than 1,000 households, and when he sees it, whether he can rely on the strength of everyone to break through, or must he kill people with higher life qualities.

This determines the later steps and methods.

Wang Shoutian nodded and said: "These things are handed over to you, Chai Jia, you and I will enter the city and enter the barracks, and I will make up the people you brought into a fire, you are so good to practice, learn military discipline, and we will use troops in the mountains next month." ”

"No!" Chai Jia responded.

Chai Jia was born brave, the township learned martial arts, drew inferences from one another, usually hunted to get meat, long and fierce, more than a dozen people in the township could not be defeated, so that he could be respected by the villagers, and gathered a group of little brothers.

Now as a fire chief, he can only say that he is an officer's beginning, but he is full of confidence, as long as he kills the bandits, he will naturally be promoted.

Kaiming County

In the evening, the Li Mansion was already full of guests.

The bridal car, as well as the maidservants who accompanied the dowry, and the group had arrived at the Li Mansion.

Li Chengye and Wang Jieting, one left and one right, tied each other, walked into the Li Mansion in the singing of the praisers, went straight into the main hall, and met their parents.

"Worship heaven and earth!" Heaven and earth are born and raised, so they worship it first.

"Second bow to the high hall!" "Kneel down to your parents, this is the ceremony of entering the house.

"Husband and wife worship each other!"

After the three ceremonies, there is also the ritual of co-bonding, which means that the husband and wife drink and eat together, and the husband and wife are connected by the number of qi.

When the ceremony is completed and the bride returns to the room, the groom has to raise his glass and drink, and pass by the table.

The county commander Li Cunyi was very happy, this wedding, the handsome gave 20 hectares of land (2,000 acres of land) to show the principle of grace, and Wang Jieting has a beautiful appearance and dignified manners, but he is a good match for his son.

Tian Ji this time, he also gave a hundred taels of silver, which is very high in the congratulatory gift, so he occupied a seat, and the hidden dragon in front of him came up to toast, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed, and he raised his glass and drank it all in one gulp.

If Wang Shoutian was in it, he would be able to see that after the worship ceremony, a purple gas penetrated through Wang Jieting's top and injected it into Li Chengye's top.

This purple qi is like a key, I don't know what key it has opened, but I saw that in the blood veins of Li Chengye's body, the clouds are constantly gushing out, like boiling water, and like a spring opening.

On the top of Li Chengye, his qi was white at first, gathering but not dispersing, and it was like smoke at the beginning.

In a short period of time, it turned white and turned red, like a boil, and finally changed again, only to see the qi rushing out, gradually rising, and once in the shape of a banner.

Building, in the ancient army, as a military flag for the commanders of the generals, has the meaning of lowering and commanding, and it is also the king's honor guard, which can be seen.

Gradually, the breath of its banner spit out gold again.

At a glance, it was only half an hour, and there was already a banner hanging on top of Li Chengye, and auspicious energy enveloped his body.

Although Tian Ji can't clearly see the luck, but there is also a way, after the toast, he aimed at Li Chengye, squinted his eyes and sat upright, after a while, he felt a kind of rising clouds, a rough look at the shape, a closer look at nothing, far seems to have, the near is not, and after a while, the nose smells fragrant, which makes people feel refreshed and happy, and the spirit is greatly lifted, and the eyes are golden.

I was overjoyed in my heart, and secretly thought: "The real person's instructions, sure enough, are true, when the hidden dragon is not released, it is just a general life, so it is difficult to measure, and it is not taken seriously, so as not to die halfway." ”

"Now that we are married, the power of our ancestors has been revealed, and they can be sheltered, and the dragon is full of energy, and it has given birth to the spirit of great luck, and the Lord will be rich and prosperous for a long time. ”

"Although it is said that the qi has already been formed, it will be necessary to create a tool, so it will take a while, but if it is short, it will be three years, and if it is late, it will become a large instrument, and then it will be unfavorable. ”

"As long as this person seizes the land of Shu, obtains the qi of millions of soldiers and civilians in the three states of Shu, and forms the three grids of heaven, earth and man and becomes the king, we can use his luck, not only to make up for the immortal industry that has been cut down by real people, and to relist the immortal class, but also to precipitate the luck in the Dao veins of the master, so as to prepare the Dao veins to be blessed continuously, inherited endlessly, and the Fa-rectification is capable!"

"As for whether the King of Shu can compete for the world, and wait for the real person to restore the immortal industry, he can naturally guide me to wait, and when the time comes, the rapid retreat or the rush will be decided by the real person. ”

Thinking of this, Tian Ji couldn't help but be happy, raised his glass and drank again, and took a break when he was drunk.

At this time, among the guests, Yu Liangboxiao and Xiao Shaode were at their own seats, of course they couldn't look at it, but they could also feel that Li Chengye in front of him, his face was like a crown of jade, his eyes were like stars, and his gestures were magnificent, which made people's hearts break.

Both of them felt this bearing, and both of them were thoughtful, and they raised their glasses and drank slowly.

It was late at night, when the guests finally dispersed, that Li Chengye was able to return to the room, and the servant and maid were already waiting outside, leading the groom in.

Perhaps it is the beauty of the sky, when the night is deep, the clouds are open and the fog is dispersed, the stars are bright, and the moonlight is bright.

When he arrived at the wedding room, but seeing the red candle with a high fever and a gorgeous display, Wang Jieting sat motionless in front of the small case, and Li Chengye stepped forward and took the cover away.

"Lady!"

"Husband!"

After a greeting, there was not much time, but I saw that it was dark in the room, but the candle was blown out.
