Back to Datang Jianzuo City

Chapter 121
Liu Hu took several servants and surrounded Ding Yi.The hundreds of people rushing forward lost their minds, in order to prevent a stampede on Ding Yi!

Originally, Ding always went through the side door when he went out, because he was afraid of being watched by these people!When I heard the news about glass today, I was a little overwhelmed!

"Marquis Shiping, who told the world that the world is round?"

"Master Hou, where is the fairy world?"

"Ding Shenxian, touch me quickly!"

I go!How come there are people like this, are you sure you haven't seen mortals?I still want a fairy to caress my head, so that I can live forever!

The crowd was so excited that Liu Hu and the others could no longer stop it.

"stop!"

"Stop it first!" An angry shout did not stop the crazy people, so they had no choice but to shout a few more times...

Finally the crowd quieted down, and Ding Yi said sternly, "What are you doing? Are you committing crimes in the street? Who gave you the courage to besiege a Lord of Tang Dynasty!"

The stopped crowd calmed down instantly, this is indeed inappropriate!No matter how other people are also Lord Marquis, some timid ones retreated quietly.

"Master Hou, we are here to ask questions!"

"That's right, you are full of knowledge and knowledge, we are here to ask for advice!"

……

Sister, the person who shouted just now didn't see it!Why does this have a taste of conspiracy, someone is provoking!

"I'll give you three breaths, leave by yourself, or you will be responsible for the consequences!" Ding Yi's expression was gloomy, and he finally felt like a future star, this is so annoying!However, this is Datang, the evil imperialism, and no matter how you say it, it belongs to the exploiting class!

"Liu Hu, open the way, someone will block and break your legs!"

This moment aroused public outrage, but more people dared to be angry and dare not speak out, no matter how they provoke a Marquis, they have to weigh their own weight.

Wherever Liu Hu passed, he retreated.Everyone glared at Ding Yi angrily, but dared not speak, for fear of being beaten badly if he was too late!
"Lord Marquis, although you are a marquis, you are also a courtier of the Tang Dynasty. We are just here to argue with you, why do you treat us like this?"

In front of Liu Hu, a young man in his twenties blocked his way.The man was still looking around in a daze, saying to his mother, who pushed me out!

Liu Hu made a gesture to fight, but the man ran away in a hurry.A farce ended just like that, but Ding Yi left, but these people did not retreat...

"Hmph! I thought he was a man like Marquis Shi Ping, but he is also a bully!"

"That's right! I heard people say that Marquis Shi Ping had a good temper before, but seeing him today really deserves his reputation...Hmph!" The man had a mocking face, with deep meaning in irony.

"You all came to Marquis Shi Ping to inquire about the circle of land, and to discuss academics. Why did Marquis Shi Ping treat us like this?"

"Yes, if he doesn't explain it clearly to us, we will..." The man was halfway through speaking, but he didn't know how to continue.

"Whatever it is, you tell me!"

"Just... just... just block his academy, if you don't believe him, he won't show up!"

"Yes, let's go, block the academy!"

I don't know how these people live. There is no one in this area for ten miles, only the Ding Mansion and the college. The other places are either desolate or cultivated, and the rest are construction sites.

The craftsmen who built the police hall looked curiously at these people who looked like scholars.These people are really full, let's see how you spend tonight!
……

In the courtyard of Ding's mansion, Ding Yima sat around the stone table on Tuesday.The census of Mazhou County is coming to an end, and the surrounding villages will be registered next.

"You mean that the county population cannot be found in some places?" Ding Yi asked in surprise.

Ma Zhou has already registered the population of Shiping County, but he is currently encountering some difficulties.

"Yes, the Zhao family in the east of the county is said to have a close relationship with Mr. Liu, and those who went to register were blocked from the door. The students also went to Fu Xiancheng, and Fu Xiancheng said something to the students!"

This census organized by Ding Yi is very easy for ordinary people.Meeting the merchants and wealthy households in these counties encountered difficulties. Fu Xichen told Ma Zhou that these people were in cahoots with Liu Yu and the others, and there were some people in their families who had lost their status in the early years.If this was registered by Ma Zhou, they would have to drive people away or pay taxes.When Ma Zhou heard this, he became angry and cursed at being despicable.Fu Xichen, who had long been used to it, comforted Ma Zhou and asked him to come back to find him.

"How about this, don't check if you don't find it in the county seat, go and register the people in the surrounding villages."

Ma Zhou glared at Ding Yi, unexpectedly Ding Yi would do this.

"Your Majesty, don't you care about this matter? Those people hid people privately, evaded taxes and exposed taxes. As a Marquis and the magistrate of Shiping County, don't you care about the people under your rule?" Disappointed, I thought he was different from other nobles, but now it seems he is the same!
"I didn't say I don't care. The timing is not right now. Do you know why I want you to register?" Ma Zhou has not yet entered the officialdom. Although his behavior is unruly, he is also righteous.

Ma Zhou suddenly realized, yes, this is not a document issued by the court to check the population, why did Ding Yi want to check?Looking at Ding Yi curiously, she wanted him to give an answer.

He signaled to sit down, and it was uncomfortable to stand so high and raise his head to speak.He told him about the city he wanted to build, and told him some of his ideas about the city.

Ma Zhou listened with enthusiasm and asked questions from time to time.

"Master Hou, you said that this city should be dominated by industry and supplemented by commerce. What about food? The people don't farm the land anymore?" Although the planning prospects are very bright, are you sure this city can be built?

"You still don't understand!"

Ma Zhou said embarrassingly, "Then I don't know what position the Marquis of Agriculture is placed on?"

"Nowadays people use human and animal power to farm, with very little income, and everything depends on the weather. It's good to say that there is a good year, but if there is a bad year... then what is the reason for this?" There is no gift to go on, and I leave it to Ma Zhou to answer .

Ma Zhou thought about it, and it was obvious that this question was a bit difficult.

"Lord Hou, the common people have always farmed with human or animal power, and when manpower is exhausted, the time suitable for farming is only one or two months a year. Natural disasters are unstoppable, just like last year's locust plague, which spread all over the world! This kind of In such a situation, what can the people do!"

Ding Yi held the thermos cup and brewed a cup of green tea, smelling the wafting fragrance, enjoying it.

"Then why don't you change it? Don't make some tools to make spring plowing and autumn harvest easier, and you can cultivate more land! If you don't want to do everything possible to increase food production, but keep your old roots, how can you build a great achievement that surpasses the predecessors? !"

Change!What does Lord Hou want to do?Do you want to learn from Shang Yang and Wang Mang?Ma Zhou yearned for it in his heart, but he didn't dare to raise it.

"Master Hou, do you know how to change the tools for spring plowing and autumn harvest?"

"So, go and register your population first, and let you know when you're done!"

... Are you fooling me for a long time?But being aroused by curiosity, Ma Zhou also wanted to see how Ding Yi could change, so he resisted the urge to beat someone...

But something happened in Chang'an City that I don't know how to describe!

The soldiers and horses of the five cities are all messed up!
