Chapter 636: Make the money first and then talk about the project
"Hanhan, you go and light the lanterns, and we will talk to the ancestors." The headman took Hanhan to the sacrificial hall and asked Hanhan to light it. oil lamp.
According to the tradition of Xiaqiu Village, the sacrificial hall follows the villagers.
Zhu Wentian went over and lit the oil lamp first, then lit three sticks of incense, knelt down and kowtowed. This was to invite the ancestors of Xiaqiu Village back.
People from other Xiaqiu Village came forward to kowtow. Everyone believed this.
The village chief was the last one to kneel down, "Actually, it's nothing. His Majesty has come to the village again. He will probably stay for a while and bring the ancestors here. Don't worry, we won't cry today, we'll wait for the New Year.
p>
Hanhan, it’s okay for you to say a few words. You speak with difficulty, and the ancestors don’t like to hear it, so you just”
Crack There was a sudden thunder in the sky outside, a thunderbolt from the blue sky.
"Just say a few words." The voice was trembling.
Zhu Wentian ""
He wanted to explain to the chief how the bolt from the blue came about. It was a sunny day and there were clouds nearby. The current on the clouds ran out horizontally, and then again. fall.
He stepped forward without kneeling, "The mayor has no other intention, we can have another drought thunder, and we have a whole village to testify. In fact"
Another thunder came. .
"Actually, that's it. Let's kill the sheep. We have to cook it quickly, otherwise there will be no sheep soup to drink." Zhu Wentian didn't expect such a coincidence.
"Hanhan, when I talked to you before, was there anything that made you unhappy?" Li Chang was afraid.
"No, kill the sheep, collect the sheep's blood, and leave. You spanked me when you brought me back." Zhu Wentian was confused.
"No, it's nothing, let's go, let's go, you'll stay here tonight." The director was really scared.
"Well, I guard the sacrificial hall, and there is also a lamp in the mountain temple. There is no shortage of oil now."
"The lamp is always lit there, but not here, because We can't have two sacrificial halls. When we went to Helin, they didn't worship ancestors during the Chinese New Year. All the sacrificial halls were dark. This year, it will be better. Wherever you are, it will be bright."
Everyone. When you come out, the door of the sacrificial hall is open, facing the patio. If there is a moon at night and the moonlight shines down from the patio, usually only Zhu Wentian can sleep soundly.
Otherwise, the combination of the moonlight from the patio and the oil lamps in the ancestral hall would make the surrounding houses dark and empty. The memorial tablets in the sacrificial hall in front of it
This sacrificial hall is a large courtyard with five entrances. , there is a second floor above, and every person talking at night has echoes.
When Feng Gui, the head of Xihe Village, saw the slaughter of sheep, he immediately sent someone back to collect the sheep. He was afraid that there were not enough sheep in Xiaqiu Village.
The other two nearby villages also asked people to go back. Everyone raised a lot of sheep, and now they are bringing them to eat without feeling any distress.
The other village chiefs told the three nearby villages to get more, and they would pay back and the money would be shared equally among everyone.
Xiaqiu Village did not refuse, and always refused to let others pay, which would turn a favor into an enmity.
However, problems are prone to arise when it comes to giving and taking, including rushing to pay for meals.
Normally speaking, whoever is willing to marry can be married, and please come back next time.
"Beautiful, Ming Dynasty" Zhu Yuanzhang sighed when he stood at the highest place, which is the location of the mountain temple in Xiaqiu Village, which is the highest here.
In front of him were golden and yellow-green areas. The golden area was soybeans, and the other area was where indica rice, japonica rice and jute were interplanted.
The sheep are also here. They are pulled by carts. If the sheep run by themselves, they will make a mess.
"Feng Gui, are there many sheep in the village?" Zhu Yuanzhang finished sighing and asked Feng Laosi.
“Your Majesty, it’s hard to buy large livestock, so the village began to buy more lambs and ewes, soybean straw and silage, just in time to feed the sheep.
The current Xihe Village The family's property has increased more than a hundred times. It is the same as in Xiaqiu Village, with a two-story brick-concrete structure.
But there is no water supply. A sewage treatment plant needs to be built. Everyone said that we will tell Xiaqiu next year. The village discussed that the money saved this year will be used." Feng Gui replied and said that the village had ideas and would do it according to Xiaqiu Village.
"You can pay the money to do it this year. I will install the boiler for you and then connect the heating. It will be warm in winter and there is no need to burn the kang."
When Zhu Yuanzhang heard what the other party said, he prepared it in advance. Nian has no money now, so he will pay it back slowly. The village has the ability to repay.
As soon as he agreed, all twenty-one villages went to the head of the village to discuss the matter. If the money was not enough, they owed it first and could pay it back with interest.
The villagers had no other expenses, and the village chief did not dare to agree for a while. He told everyone that it would be in two days, so there was no rush.
After a lot of busy work, at two quarters of noon, everyone was able to drink the mutton soup.
The pier also started to sell mutton soup, selling it at cost price plus 10% profit. When the ships passing by saw the price, they were tempted and paid for it, but there was no pepper, only Sichuan pepper powder.
"We want to see the real situation of the people, and we are willing to see the reality here. There is no surprise in drinking mutton soup."
Zhu Yuanzhang was talking to Empress Ma, The other women and children of the palace went to eat where the women and children of Xiaqiu Village were, except for Queen Ma and Concubine Sun.
Concubine Sun's status is based on her appearance, but she cannot rule the entire harem. She also has abilities, but abilities can be cultivated unless she is too stupid.
“Twenty-one of the twenty-two villages in Xuancheng County, not counting Xiaqiu Village, are all wealthy, and drinking mutton soup is normal.
The people in the team we led The soldiers all came back from the Northland, which is a pastoral area. In winter, sheep are not as valuable as cucumbers.
Other craftsmen also went to the Northland. In the end, no one in the palace was left behind. A mouthful of mutton soup
Officials in one prefecture and six counties are rich, but they have to look at what the people in poor places do."
Empress Ma understands her man's thoughts. This place was replaced a few years ago , who are not poor including officials.
“Taiping Mansion is about the same. Let's go to Taiping Mansion when we go back." Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly had an idea.
"Are the officials ready?" Queen Ma asked.
"Let's look at the people first. , the people's lives are better, and the rest is easy to talk about. We all rush forward in a life-and-death fight, but we are afraid of seeing officials make mistakes and dare not correct them."
Zhu Yuanzhang looked nonchalant. He had heard that officials in Taiping Prefecture also benefited from it.
Get the benefits, reap the benefits, the people's life is not good, kill them when they need to be killed, don't let it be tolerated.
Sun Guifei thought to herself, "Your Majesty, why don't you let the news out first and let the officials handle it." Take out the money you get. After all, they are familiar with the local conditions, otherwise they won't be able to make money. "
"No, what we give them belongs to them. If we don't give it, they can't reach out. If there is a problem, we will send them and their families to the mine. ”
Zhu Yuanzhang will not compromise, and the rules must be maintained first, otherwise it will be over.
If corruption occurs, it will be different from when Xuancheng County officials went to Xiaqiu Village before. Everyone in the village is provided with food.
If you are greedy now, you are not greedy for food. I guarantee you will be greedy for money. "Empress Ma doesn't want to talk more about this topic. This is a happy moment.
"Yes, let's have a drink. This thing is said to have no nutrition after eating, but I prefer to eat it. It's expensive now. They were all made in Xiaqiu Village. "
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the table in front of him and asked for food. Please remember to bookmark it. The latest and fastest website without anti-theft and free to find and add books can be added to the qq group 952868558
