    After being dragged home by Shang Wanyi, beaten to a bruised face and swollen, she swore that she would no longer dare to spend the night outside casually, never dare to look at pretty girls, dare not talk to pretty girls, and even less dare to touch the little hands of pretty girls.  Finally, he mercifully spared Fatty Lu's fat life, and sent Fatty Lu to Donghe Township to urge the people to work in the spring, so as to benefit the Qing Dynasty and the Eight Banners.

    Riding the fast horse sent by Xiao Mazi, I rushed to Donghe Township where the old county seat of Qujing used to be. It was already the afternoon of February 16th.  There are still people plowing and working on one-third of the land, and Zhu Fangdan is wandering around that land with seven or eight government servants, talking to a group of poor people who are shirtless.  Fatty Lu rode his horse over, and all the people hurriedly knelt down to salute. Fatty Lu got off his horse and said with a smile: "Everyone, this is not a court, so there is no need for so many salutes. Get up and go about your affairs. Spring plowing season is an inch of time."  An inch of gold."

    "Thank you, master." The common people all thanked and got up.  Over there, Zhu Fangdan asked Fatty Lu suspiciously: "Boss, what's wrong with your ears? Why are they so red? Are they still a little swollen?"

    "Noit's nothing, I accidentally bumped into it when I went out just now." Fatty Lu blushed, quickly covered his ears that were almost torn by Shang Wanyi, and changed the subject and asked, "How is it?  Has it been planted? And our drug, would the common people be willing to plant it?"

    "Back home, the spring plowing is not bad. Except for two lazy men who refused to plant the land left by their parents, the rest of the land has been planted with grain and vegetables." Zhu Fangdan replied honestly: "As for those two lazy men, I  They also asked the dibao to bring them here, scolded them, whipped them a few more times, and forced them to plant the land. It¡¯s just that the drug is more troublesome, except for the landlords and gentry who promised to help us grow the drug in the Town God¡¯s Temple.  In addition to the promise, ordinary people dare not plant, fearing that they will not be sold for money, and even more afraid of affecting the grain harvest.¡±

    "It's impossible, but it doesn't matter. As long as the first batch of planters get rich, our headache is how to control them to plant less." Fatty Lu sighed, and knew that once he made this first, the future  He must have a headache about how to suppress and suppress the common people to plant a hibiscus - but Fatty Lu understands better that even if he doesn't set the precedent, the coquettish ahibiscus flowers will bloom all over this land sooner or later.

    Long-term pain is worse than short-term pain. For Fatty Lu himself, instead of letting history develop according to the original track and letting drugs ravage this land for hundreds of years, it is better to advance this time and wait until he has enough strength. Come over and suppress it forcefully.  After all, even if I don't do this, someone will come here with strong ships and cannons more than a hundred years later, forcing the people here to do so.

    After sighing again, Fatty Lu rolled his eyes, pondered another wicked idea, beckoned Zhu Fangdan and several yamen servants to his front, and said to them in a low voice: "Have you seen that most of the common people here are  They are so poor that they don¡¯t even have a piece of clothing. Go tell the people here that as long as they plant a piece of the land alone, they will have clothes for the winter in half a year. If they don¡¯t even want to plant a piece of land, even  It¡¯s fine to plant half of the land or one line of land, in the future they will surely laugh so hard that they can¡¯t even close their mouths.¡±

    "Boss, the planting is so scattered, it will be difficult to harvest the juice at that time." Zhu Fangdan said in embarrassment: "At that time, if you want to collect all these scattered seeds and instruct so many people to harvest and cook the juice, it will be difficult to harvest the juice.  It is not an easy task, and it is definitely not enough to rely solely on the manpower of our Qujing county government."

    "Stupid, who wants to accept their drug juice?" Fatty Lu said with a smile: "I want their seeds, think about it, and see the results in half a year.  How heavy is it?"

    "Wonderful! The owner is really clever. When we collect the seeds, we can still sell them for a high price." Zhu Fangdan patted his thigh, turned to the servants next to him and urged: "Why are you still standing there? Everyone bring a small bag."  Go and persuade the people to plant the seeds, and wait for the extra money to make a fortune in half a year."

    All the yamen servants were also a little skeptical, and they couldn¡¯t understand why the new county magistrates and masters liked to grow these things, and they insisted that growing these things would make them rich, but considering Fatty Lu¡¯s double salary, these  The yamen servants still honestly picked up a small bag of seeds and scattered around to persuade the people to plant them experimentally.  Zhu Fangdan then suggested to Fatty Lu: "Boss, the student thinks that if you want to make money with this thing, then the western side must also pay attention to it. The student heard that now foreign doctors also like to use medicine to treat diseases, ah  Hibiscus is also sold at a high price.?The son knocked on Erlang's leg and said, "Liu Junmen, it's fine if you don't want Murima to know about it, but you have to tell me what benefits Li Futai has given you, and you have to help him intervene in the local area."  civil affairs?"

    Liu Wenjin hesitated to answer, Fatty Lu sneered again and said, "Don't say it? It's okay, someone will let you say it, but when the time comes, the officials won't intercede for Liu Junmen, so don't blame me Liu Junmen."

    "I said, I said." Liu Wenjin had no choice but to say honestly: "Master Lu, Li Futai gave me the jade ax in front of you. I heard from Li Futai that this jade ax is the same jade ax that Zhao Kuangyin used to row the river.  That jade ax was awarded to the King of Dali, but somehow it ended up in the hands of Li Futai."

    "Li Futai, a big deal." Fatty Lu picked up the jade axe, held it in his hand, and said with a smirk, "You don't dedicate Li Futai to the emperor, but keep it privately at home. Do you want to imitate Zhao Kuangyin and come here as well?"  A change of dynasty?"

    "You're talking nonsense!" Li Suizu was completely anxious, and shouted indiscriminately: "Who wants to change the dynasty? If I want to do this, why give this jade ax to Liu Junmen?"

    "So, Master Li wants to change the dynasty of Liu Junmen?" Fatty Lu hit the snake with the stick, turned to Liu Wenjin and smiled, "Liu Junmen, I think you definitely don't have such an idea, do you?"

    "Of course the last general didn't, and of course the last general didn't dare to have such thoughts." Liu Wenjin kowtowed again and again, then turned to Li Suzu and glared at him.

    It is of course very difficult to frame Li Shizu for rebellion and usurpation with just a jade axe - not to mention Li Shizu's greed and stinginess, this jade ax may not really belong to Zhao Kuangyin.  So Fatty Lu didn't bother to entangle in this issue, he just said to Liu Wenjin: "Liu Junmen, I won't make things difficult for you, you just report to the court according to the truth about today's affairs, as for you to pass on this official to threaten and intimidate you."  It's a trivial matter, you don't need to report it, and I won't tell General Murima. You just tell the court that Li Futai bribed you with this jade ax to lure you to interfere in civil affairs, but you sternly refused, do you understand?  ?¡±

    Fatty Lu is blatantly instigating Liu Wenjin to impeach his boss, but even though Li Suizu turned blue with anger, there was nothing he could do about it, while Liu Wenjin over there was overjoyed, and hurriedly said: "Thank you, Mr. Lu, thank you, Mr. Lu. Please rest assured, my lord.  I will definitely report the truth, and this jade ax will be sent up as evidence in the end, and Lord Lu will be satisfied with it."

    "Very good." As expected, Fatty Lu nodded in satisfaction, and was about to continue to sow discord, but suddenly there was a commotion outside the tent, and then, a group of soldiers directly belonging to the Pingxi Palace rushed to the tent like wolves,  The green battalion soldiers in front of the tent were kicked and beaten, and the leading general was none other than Wang Jing, the deputy general of Yunnan who just discussed with Fatty Lu yesterday to make a fortune together.  Before he got the money, Wang Jing yelled: "Brother Lu, don't be afraid, the second brother is here to save you! The surname Liu, you dare to touch a hair of my brother, I will be with you today"

    After shouting here, the warm-hearted General Wang Jingwang couldn't continue shouting, because he suddenly saw that the good brother Lu Fatty, the seventh-rank magistrate, who he was going to rescue, not only did not crawl on the ground covered in bruises as he imagined, but was also wearing clothes.  A bright yellow mandarin jacket knocked on Erlang's legs and sat on the coach's seat.  And Liu Wenjin, the second-rank general soldier he wanted to stop the violence, was kneeling obediently in front of Fatty Lu, with several red slap marks on his face.

    "Who am I here to save?" Wang Jing scratched his head in doubt.  (To be continued, if you want to know what will happen next, please visit www.qidian.com, more chapters, support the author, support genuine reading!) (Remember the website URL: www.hlnovel.com
