Du Qi saw it in his eyes, but he sighed in his heart. The lives of the people in this life are not as good as the lives of the people in later generations. Although later generations are also full of various pressures, such as loans, car loans, children, etc., at least there is no problem with eating meat and drinking, and filling the stomach has long been solved. Countless people in this life can't even eat enough.
After all, productivity is too low.
Whether it is the level of technology or the standard of living, it is seriously insufficient.
Du Qi wanted to change this situation in his heart, but it didn't happen overnight, and the journey was long.
Du Qi chatted with Yue Laojiu again, asked about Yue Laojiu's own affairs, and learned about the situation in Shangyuan Village. In Shangyuan Village today, many villagers go out to work, and they also grow food at home.
The life of these people is pretty good, much better than in previous years.
In previous years, there were exorbitant taxes.
? After paying all kinds of taxes and food, it would be pretty good if there is not much food left to fill the stomach. But at the end of this year, many people have food reserves and have made some money to save. Life is very good.
Yue Laojiu said that he used to go to work, but the work was slow, after all, he was getting old. But at any rate, when working, I can earn a little money to ensure that I can eat some meat.
After Du Qi heard it, he nodded in approval.
This is not bad.
It seems that Ye Daosheng is in charge of Jiuquan County, and with road construction and other things, people's lives are improving rapidly.
Definitely have a good life.
After Du Qi talked to Yue Laojiu again, he took his leave and left.
At this time, Yue Laojiu was extremely excited.
He went out to see him off in person, and after sending Du Qi out of the village, Yue Laojiu turned and walked back. At this time, Yue Laojiu already held his head high, his face full of pride.
King Pingxi came to see him.
King Pingxi did not forget the members of the Yue family.
At this time, the village official in the village and the rest of the villagers came. After seeing Yue Laojiu, they all asked for a while to understand Du Qi's intention to come to Shangyuan Village. When they learned that Du Qi came to Yue Laojiu's house to express condolences, whether it was the village official or the folks, they were all envious, because Pingxi Wang came to Yue Laojiu's house alone, which was the recognition of Yue Laojiu.
Regardless of whether King Pingxi will come back in the future, Yue Laojiu cannot take it lightly, and must treat it with caution.
Village Zhenggeng proposed to renovate Yue Laojiu's house, but Yue Laojiu politely refused. Amidst the laughter and laughter, and the envy of some people, the crowd returned to the village.
However, Du Qi and Guo Xiaozheng went to the next family.
Went to visit Wang Shengli.
Wang Shengli's family background is worse than that of Yue Laojiu. After all, Wang Shengli is a widowed old man, living a poor life. After this encounter, Wang Shengli was extremely grateful to Du Qi, and he was full of praise for Du Qi.
By this time it was almost noon.
Accompanied by the village official of Shengli Village, Du Qi had a light meal in the village. The meals are quite hearty, including chicken soup, mutton, etc., which are very rich.
Du Qi didn't say anything beforehand, and when he was about to leave after having lunch and chatting with the host's family, he asked Guo Xiaozheng to give the host some money for meals, and then took them away.
After Du Qi left, he went to Gao Leping's house in the last Dapinggou.
Gao Leping's family is not bad.
After all, Gao Leping has a family, and although Gao Leping himself was injured and his legs and feet are inconvenient, he knows how to run a business. In addition to raising livestock, he can earn money to support his family.
When Du Qi talked with Gao Leping, he found that Gao Leping's room was quite warm.
This is coal burning in the house.
Du Qi saw the coal stone and asked: "Gao Leping, you burn coal stone in your house. It's very cold and the house is closed without ventilation. Don't you worry about being poisoned by burning coal stone?"
If it is low-quality coal, the combustion will produce carbon dioxide, which is easily poisoned.
Of course, fine anthracite is different.
It can be burned directly.
Even if carbon dioxide is produced, the content is extremely weak, or even non-existent.
Gao Leping showed a smile on his face, and said: "Your Highness, this coal stone is different from ordinary coal stones, and it is non-toxic. Don't believe me, I have been using it all the time without being poisoned. It's just that many people don't want to believe it, so it is We use coal like this in our house.¡±
Du Qi asked: "Where did you find this coal stone?"
Gao Leping replied: "BackYour Highness, such coal stones are located on Daping Mountain, west of Dapinggou. There are countless coal stones on Daping Mountain, all of which are on the ground and can be picked up everywhere. The coal stones used by the grass-roots people were picked up from Daping Mountain. It's just that many people think that such coal is poisonous and unusable, so they are unwilling to use it. "
Du Qi's eyes lit up when he heard it.
Coal!
Especially for anthracite coal exposed on the surface, this is an opportunity. However, it is cold today, and the mountains are blocked by heavy snow, so it is not suitable for mining. After the beginning of spring, manpower can be mobilized to mine anthracite in large quantities.
Whether it is used for heating or for smelting weapons, it is all possible. Once coal is used to smelt weapons, the smelting temperature can be greatly increased.
After Du Qi talked with Gao Leping again, he finally had food, wine, meat and cloth delivered, and finally left. Now that he finished these three places, Du Qi went to Daping Mountain.
Guo Xiaozheng said: "Your Highness, we have already traveled all the places, why don't we return?"
"Not in a hurry!"
Du Qi shook his head and said: "Let's go to Daping Mountain first to have a look at the terrain of Daping Mountain."
Guo Xiaozheng heard about the situation of coal stones before, he said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, coal stones are an extremely dangerous item. If you don't pay attention, it may lead to death. Be careful when mining coal stones!"
Du Qi said: "Let's take a look first."
"yes!"
Guo Xiaozheng heard the words, so he stopped talking.
Du Qi and his party headed towards Daping Mountain, because the distance is not far away, and they arrived within two quarters of an hour. Now that the heavy snow has fallen, the entire Daping Mountain has been covered by heavy snow, and it has become covered in silver, and there is no layer of coal stones outside.
In such a situation, it is impossible to mine coal.
Du Qi did not order mining.
Just asked someone to dig off a layer of snow on the surface, picked up some coal stones from the ground, and ordered to return. This return, when he returned to the county seat of Jiuquan County and the Wangfu, it was already dark.
After all, it gets dark very early in winter.
Du Qi and Guo Xiao are in the study, and the host and guest are seated.
Guo Xiaozheng said: "Your Highness, today I have condolences to Yue Laojiu and others. After I am humbled, I am going to publicize the news so that countless people know about it, so as to establish His Highness' status in the hearts of the people."
Du Qi thought for a while and said: "There is no need to make a big fanfare of the propaganda. It only needs a small-scale publicity, and let the people discuss and ferment by themselves. It's too deliberate and unnecessary."
Guo Xiaozheng said: "I understand the humble position."
Du Qi waved his hand, Guo Xiaozheng turned around and left.
In fact, although the news of this era was closed, word of mouth passed it on, especially the fact that Du Qi went to condolences to the people, for the people of Jiuquan County, it was the first time in the world.
Soon there were countless people talking about it.
In addition to Du Qi's many previous reforms, all of which have brought benefits to the people, superimposed together, the people's impression of Du Qi has been elevated, and the people are even more grateful to Du Qi.
