The Big Farmer of Time Traveling

Chapter 315 New Book Citation Controversy

In fact, apart from my friends who like to read this book, a small number of men also think that it is well written. The descriptions in the script are delicate, especially the description of Zhu Yingtai. The feelings of admiration and admiration arose only because everyone's evaluation of "Zhu Yingtai" was too radical. These guys who liked "Zhu Yingtai" communicated with each other in private, and dared not say it publicly.

While readers were still immersed in the discussion of this book, two other books from Qingdai Publishing House were quietly listed, namely Wang Qingmei's "Mulan" and He Yuhua's "Yangmen Brothers".

These two books take war as the theme, write about the hatred of the country and the family, and the love between children, and they also do things like a man as a brother.

The people who scolded "Zhu Yingtai" very hard before read these two new scripts and didn't say much. The people next to them became curious. These two books are also unusual. Take Hua Mulan as an example, that is also My brother is pretending to be a man, how can they accept it?

The person who was asked snorted coldly: "Hmph, what do you know? Are the characters in these two books ordinary people? Even though it was wrong for Hua Mulan to join the army for her father, it was justifiable. Dad’s body, I’m afraid he died of illness on the road before he even got to the battlefield. Besides, he was brave and resourceful on the battlefield, made great contributions to the country, and finally married a general, but there is no description of what brother he formed Army, which means he is different from Zhu Yingtai!"

"Then what about the Yang family?"

"Damn, if you want me to say that those civil servants who stand and talk all day without back pain should be driven to the battlefield, forcing their brothers and husbands to put on armor and still want to talk about him, it's really embarrassing ! If there is such a person in our court, I will write an article and scold him to get rid of the bad breath in my heart."

Hearing what he said, the person who asked the question understood it. It was clear that he didn't like my brother's study, but he didn't dislike my brother's martial arts practice.

Whether it is "Zhu Yingtai", which has mixed reputations, or "Mulan" and "The Brothers of the Yang Family", which have been loved by most people, the three books have spread from Lishui County at a very fast speed. Qingdai Publishing The agency became famous, and the sales of the poetry collection published by Qingdailou also increased a lot.

What Lin Xiazhi never expected was that these books were passed on to the emperor in a very short period of time, and the emperor read all three books seriously, and asked all the officials to follow along and let everyone write their thoughts The experience is said to be the homework left by the former Taifu for the emperor.

When Lin Xiazhi heard about this later, he suddenly wondered if it was right for him to seek out Shi Xingyu, not because Qingdailou's backer was not yet warm, but because he had tossed away his biggest backer.

Of course, it was the end of July when these news came back to Lishui County, and now Lin Xiazhi was more worried about harvesting potatoes, soybeans and sweet potatoes.

Because it was inconvenient for him to go out, he asked Lin Xiaodong to go to Beishan Village to watch, and then asked Cheng Fulang to borrow someone to go to Linjia Village, so that they would take them back to Cheng Zhai immediately if they found different potatoes.The last time a mutated pepper was found in the Lin family's pepper field, maybe a new mutated variety will be found this time.

Last month's rice harvest was bumper, and this month's potato and sweet potato harvests were bumper. This year's hard-working farmers' faces were almost frozen with smiles, and the corners of their mouths were raised when they were dreaming.

"Thanks to His Majesty the Emperor for caring about agriculture. Our Majesty the Emperor is an enlightened king once seen in all ages. He will surely live forever. Bless us farmers who plan food in the fields to live a good life with enough food and clothing."

"The Lin family is also a good person. According to the order, they have researched and developed rice twice a year, and also planted potatoes, a high-yield and delicious food. This makes our family look forward to the future."

"I didn't expect that one day, my family's grain would be able to fill the granary after paying the tax, and even the granary would not be able to hold it. I dare not dream of such a day."

……

Every day, words of gratitude to the emperor, the Lin family, and how happy they are for their food came from different people in different places, and the atmosphere in Lishui County was good.

In the palace, the emperor and his younger brother Xiaoyao were looking at the secret report below and an agricultural book sent by the sheriff of Lishui County.

The secret report is not from the hands of officials, but the information collected from the teahouses that King Xiaoyao developed to various places. The agricultural book is the one written by Lin Huzi.

The emperor slapped the table after reading it: "Great kindness!"

King Xiaoyao was also very happy: "Congratulations to the Lin family during the reign of the emperor. The methods they contributed solved the problem of food and clothing for the people. Now they have written agricultural books to teach the people all over the world to cultivate the land. The wealth of the people makes the country strong, and the scenery is strong." The country will definitely develop and grow in the hands of the emperor."

"If it wasn't for the fact that their family members are weak, and I'm afraid they won't be able to bear too much blessing, I will definitely write another commendation decree to them." The emperor stood up with his hands behind his back, and his heart was agitated by the contents of the agricultural book and the words in the secret report. Surging, unable to sit on the stool.

"The third son of the Lin family is studying in the academy and preparing for the next scholar exam. Hearing that he is talented, the masters have said behind his back several times that he has a high possibility of being a scholar. He is [-] years old this year. Make an exception and mention him to study in the Imperial College?"

"If I think about it again, their family background is too weak, and they might be bullied in the Guozijian." The emperor did not agree, but sighed, "If Lin Huzi could read a little when he was young, he could take the exam like his third brother. If a scholar raises someone, I will directly mention him to work in the Ministry of Agriculture, so there is no need to worry so much."

"The situation of the Lin family is more complicated, that is, their lineage only grew up after the separation of the family." King Xiaoyao heard that the emperor considered the Lin family so much, and once again raised the status of the Lin family, thinking about the contribution of the Lin family and the Cheng family. things, more and more curious about them.

"I remember when you said that. Lin Huzi and those two foolish fathers really mistook fish eyes for pearls, and they were so angry." The emperor was very angry again.

If it weren't for those two fools, maybe the rice crops twice a year would have come out long ago. How could he have had such a difficult few years when he first took over the throne.

Thinking of this, the emperor felt very depressed. He couldn't come forward to punish Lin Huzi's foolish father. This would not be good for the reputation of Lin Huzi, his third son who was studying, and the third younger brother who was an official outside. .

Seeing that the emperor would not be happy to continue talking about this matter, King Xiaoyao thought about it and changed the subject: "Brother Huang, I have been back to Beijing for so many years, and I haven't gone out for a long time. Why don't you send me to visit in private this year?" Look around, just in time to report back to you when I come back."

"Hmph! It's clearly the second brother. You want to go out to visit the mountains and rivers, and you want to find a high-sounding excuse to withdraw money from the treasury. Don't come here. I still want to go out and have a look. After becoming the emperor, I was confined to the palace. , I don’t even have a chance to go out!” The emperor was not happy because he changed the subject, he was even more angry than before.

Xiaoyao Wang is not afraid of the emperor's black face: "Brother, you can do more work, brother, I am just an idle prince, I am like this—"

"Okay, okay." The emperor interrupted him, "Go out if you want to go out, don't waver in front of me, I'll be annoying just looking at you!"

Xiaoyao Wang cheekily continued to ask: "The expenses on the way?"

The emperor stared: "I'll give it to you, I'll go to the Ministry of Households to ask for it, that's fine!"

"Thank you, Brother Huang!" Xiaoyao Wang was satisfied. Going out to play with public money and playing with his own money felt that it was very different.

The palace servants who were serving at the side lowered their heads and pursed the corners of their mouths while listening to the conversation between Lord Nine Five and King Xiaoyao. Except for King Xiaoyao, no one dared to choke with His Majesty like this.

King Xiaoyao came out of the palace in a very good mood, and immediately took the note approved by the emperor to pay the money from the official department, went home to pack his things and took his husband to set off on the same day.

The emperor was furious when he received the news in the palace. Except for the officials and soldiers guarding the city who knew that King Xiaoyao had left the capital again, no one else knew.

When Xiaoyao Wang set off, the grocery store that Lishui County cooperated with the Lin family started selling a new type of seasoning with great fanfare: dried chili.

To be precise, this is not very new. In the past, Piaoxiang Shili and Jufulou both had dishes made with dried chili, but the Lin family only supplied them to these two restaurants. Starting this year, the Lin family also sold them to the outside world.

Not long after several grocery stores near Jiangning County had dried chili peppers, a person came and sold out the dried chili peppers in the store. They were so frightened that they immediately sent someone to Lin's house to ask for restocking.

Because there are not enough peppers at the moment, the grocery stores they cooperate with can only buy a limited amount each time, so they have to say hello to the Lin family in advance.

Several people from the grocery store met at the door of Lin's house.

"Why, you are also here to buy dried chili?"

"Isn't it? We don't sell dried chilies cheaply. Someone came in as soon as the door opened today, and he bought all the dried chilis by himself."

"It's the same in my store. It was sold out not long after the door opened. Do you still remember what the person who bought dried chili from your place looked like? Let's hear it."

"It's a brother, wearing dark blue clothes, with high cheekbones, and a big mole next to his left ear. I watched him carefully when he gave money."

"Hey! This is the same person who went to our store to buy dried chilies!"

"Not only that, he also bought dried chili from our store."

"what?!"

Several grocery stores were ransacked by the same person for dried chili, which made them feel strange. Dried chili is only used when cooking vegetables to enhance the flavor. Except for restaurants and restaurants, ordinary people don’t need it. Let's buy so much. Judging by the appearance of that brother, it is impossible for him to be a peddler walking around the streets.

This incident was not within the normal range. After discussing it with some people from several grocery stores, they took the initiative to tell Lin Chengzu. See what Lin Chengzu said, and don't let this affect their store's reputation in the Lin family.
