The next day, Chu Rong accompanied Bu Fan to watch the land with her children at home. She didn't want to go at first, but Fan couldn't find someone who knew how to grow fields at this step, and this place was proposed by Chu Rong, so she couldn't shirk it. So Wenniang and Chunmei were asked to take care of the children, while Bufan and himself came to see the land.
And Huang Shuhai was summoned by the clerk of the county shop, and there was news that there was something urgent. If it is not clear, it is only related to beggars. Chu Rong and his wife knew that such a penniless person would be annoying, so Huang Shuhai hurried over.
Xiaowu Village has become a wasteland since the flood, and there are no other crops except for some weeds with strong vitality. The previous county magistrate naturally ignored these, so it is rare to see people, and it can't be more barren.
The two of them looked at the former village from a high place and felt so lonely.
"Planting food now can be regarded as bringing this land back to life." Chu Rong sighed, thinking of some reasons that prosperity must decline. Although her career is prosperous now, she still has a heart of worry.
However, I have to say that as a land for growing food, this place is indeed very suitable, both in terms of soil humidity and soil quality, which are almost the same as Huangjia Village. Especially the terrain here is low, and there is a natural water source near the high place, so it is very convenient to dig a canal to divert water.
"As long as the weeds are cleared, and the canals are dug, the rice will be full." Chu Rong said to Bu Fan.
Bu Fan's brows did not loosen.
"Easier said than done." He shook his head.
He is a new official, and his prestige is low. Naturally, a lot of manpower is needed to reclaim this large wasteland. And the source of this manpower is a big problem. Although Wen County is a small county, it is stable. Most of the people in each household have a stable livelihood. How could they abandon their livelihood to reclaim this wasteland. Unless it is out of money, a lot more money than usual. It's just that he has only been a new official for a few days, so it would be inappropriate for him to start applying for funding. Even if he has a relationship behind him, the money is not a trivial matter.
"It needs people to clean up the wasteland, and it also needs people to dig canals, let alone grow rice. How can there be so many people?"
After thinking about it, Chu Rong felt that his worries were indeed justified. I only care about growing rice, but ignore the important "people" issue. Although Fan was more official at this step, he really looked like a county magistrate. But since I'm not a county magistrate, I can't help much, so this trip to Xiaowuzhuang was worse than she thought.
After stepping into the Fanhui county government office, he wrote another letter, and this time he had to bother Mr. Xiaohai again¡ª¡ªif there is a back door, he must leave, otherwise it would be a waste. Although it is possible to apply for funding through normal channels, it¡¯s just that it takes a lot of time to apply for funding. Moreover, after the appropriation went through several layers, he might not be able to tell how much profit would be made, so he was worried.
The boy is also familiar with the road this time. He watched the eagle soaring to the sky in an instant, and sighed, "There are not many eagles in this world who bother the emperor so much."
Here Chu Rong returned home, and after seeing Ping An, she laughed and joked with Xiao Mingyue as usual. Xiao Mingyue was uncharacteristically lacking in interest.
"Mingyue, what's wrong with you today? You're listless." Chu Rong asked her while eating the fruit that had just been delivered from the mountain.
"Chu Xiao's aunt and the others should be coming in a few days." She held her chin thoughtfully.
"Are you still worried that Murong Yu'er won't succeed? Don't worry, Chu Xiao doesn't dare. If he really does something excessive, we will join hands and beat him up, especially in the face." Chu Rong said with a smile .
Xiao Mingyue suddenly had a funny scene of the two beating Chu Xiao in his mind, and couldn't help laughing.
"That's not it." Her face turned serious again, with an expression about to talk about business.
"His aunt and the others are coming, I always feel a little uneasy, and it has nothing to do with Murong Yu'er."
"Are you worried that they don't like you?"
Xiao Mingyue shook her head, "Not all of them."
"In my opinion, he has always been an orphan without father and mother. Now that he suddenly has so many relatives, I don't know how to deal with it. What I am afraid of is that some changes will affect the whole body."
"There is nothing in this world that remains the same. Think about it, aren't we always changing for the better? As long as the relationship between you and Chu Xiao remains the same. It doesn't matter whether he is a cow, a sheep, a chicken or a dog. Come on, aren¡¯t they all equally delicious?¡±
"Who's going to eat him?" Although the two were already as close as sisters, Chu Rong's words still made her a little shy.
Chu Rong really didn't mean it, she didn't expect that she seemed to say something interesting.son. Regarding the openness of the people here, even though she has been traveling for so long, she is still slowly getting used to it.
"What to eat? What's delicious." Chu Xiao came over after sword practice in another yard, and just heard this sentence.
Now Xiao Mingyue blushed even more, "Are you annoying?"
Chu Xiao didn't know what he did wrong, Xiao Mingyue blamed him as soon as he said it.
Seeing that Xiao Mingyue, who was still worried about Chu Xiao's life just now, regained her vitality, Chu Rong let go of her heart a lot. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
