Thinking of this, I realized that these naturalized barbarian farmers did not know what even the local Han farmers knew.Is it because I was isolated too much before, or because of the language barrier, I couldn't learn more advanced knowledge...

However, the problem of poor or even crude agricultural technology could be said to have been exposed at that time.In the end, I realized this problem, but I didn't know until my brother reminded me!

Lu Yan blamed himself a little. He is the magistrate of Yunzhong County, but he didn't even notice such a simple thing.

"There is no need to blame yourself..." Liu Tao looked at him, and then comforted, "Without your efforts, I don't have the extra energy to pay attention to this part. After all, what is the most important thing in Yunzhong County, you and I It's all clear."

In the final analysis, it is the Hu-Han problem. There are many Hu people who can speak Chinese, but most of them don’t know, or can’t speak clearly. If you are in a hurry, you just say a word in Xianbei, and it turns out that others mean that you are scolding yourself.

In many cases, quarrels become fights, and everything stems from misunderstandings due to language barriers.Even if they can speak Chinese, it is the dialect of Yunzhong, and they cannot speak official Chinese, so foreign traders cannot communicate with these people, and even worry that they are planning their own goods.

Here in Yunzhong County, getting along with Hu and Han is the top priority, and everyone is dealing with this kind of thing a lot of the time.

Other issues are also serious, such as infrastructure.After all, there are Xianbei people going south from time to time, or a group of Southern Huns passing through Wuyuan County... The agriculture in Yunzhong County, under the influence of his magic, has grown gratifyingly, but it is easy to be ignored.

"Having said that, it was my negligence." Lu Yan still blamed himself a little, so he promised Liu Tao.

He couldn't compare to Xun Yu in terms of talent, and if he couldn't even match in practical aspects, then he should really abdicate.Lu Yan secretly made up his mind that he must work harder.

On the other hand, the news that Yunzhong was about to face a harvest naturally spread.It was more than a month earlier than the normal harvesting time, and it was hard to understand that the harvest was going to happen even before the summer solstice.

"This Yunzhong County is also quite strange. The crops are not growing fast, and the grains are full. It seems that there will be a bumper harvest." After the yamen came down at night, Xun Yue stepped forward and called everyone over.

"Then I noticed it too..." Simpi stepped forward, "I even sent someone to check in other counties, and found that it was still growing there, and the growth was not very good, and the harvest would probably be affected. Just why , is this abnormal in Yunzhong?"

"I have a little understanding of this." Xun Yu is in charge of this aspect. Naturally, he has paid a little attention to agriculture. This is indeed the difference between him and Lu Yan. "It is said that the prefect presided over the dredging of the irrigation canal. We sent someone to overturn the truck, so the irrigation problem was solved very well.”

After a pause, he continued: "It's just why it grows so fast. On the barbarian side, many people seem to believe that Liu Tao is a messenger sent by the gods, and he brought all this."

"Basically, isn't it similar to Xiangrui?" Yin Yu thought for a while and said.

"By the way, what is that overturned car?" Simpi asked, obviously he didn't know much about it.

"It's also called a keel waterwheel. In the final analysis, it is a device that pushes water from one place to another. Farmers use their feet to draw water directly from the canal to irrigate the farmland, which is much more convenient than carrying water slowly." Xun Yu explained .

After a pause, he added: "I asked the craftsman, this overturned car seems to have been created by Bi Lan, one of the ten regular attendants."

Hearing that Shi Changshi invented it, most of the scholars around kept silent.Their class position makes them have to criticize the ten permanent attendants, and most of the items they create are described as "uncanny skills and obscenity" and "a waste of money and money".

But the problem is that the overturned cart invented by Bi Lan is really useful for farmland irrigation, so it is embarrassing.Compliments cannot be praised, and words of scolding cannot stand, so they simply keep silent.

"It's just that this crop can be harvested in less than two months. Isn't this auspicious?" Du Xi said to change the subject, so as not to continue to be so embarrassing.

"That's not the case..." Xun Yu shook his head, "I have personally seen the conditions of the fields. Those barbarians' farming machines are so ingenious that the output should be similar to or even slightly worse than that of ordinary farmland. The early harvest is really strange. , but in order to cherish the soil, it is impossible to plant another season..."

That is to say, in fact, in terms of the results, it is meaningless that the crops grow fast this season.

"The farming skills of these Hu people are too poor..." Xun Biao was a little dissatisfied, "It's a waste to let them cultivate the fields!"

"There were not so many people who came to cultivate the problem before." Xun Fai reminded, "Also, no one is willing to teach them."

"After teaching them, who knows when they will betray the big man and bring these technologies back to Xianbei?" Xun Biao still objected to this.

"The Xianbei and the Southern Huns didn't harass us all at once. They plundered a batch of supplies and people every year. If they really wanted to obtain farming technology, they had already obtained it. It can only be said that they don't value farming technology at all." Chen Yi shook his head.

"Everyone!" Guo Jia came forward suddenly, "Have you ever thought that the fact that the crops can be harvested so quickly is really related to the prefect?"

"Of course it has something to do with it..." Xun Biao replied, "It's not dredging the canals, but also building overturned cars. It is said that after autumn, the canals will be further expanded, so that the harvest in the coming year should be better."

"That's what you said." Xun Yue also noticed a problem, "The prefect gave the test to the barbarians, and those who passed are now taking evening classes. I went to see that the prefect's course is very superficial, but it is very meaningful. No wonder he said, passed Those who take the test will be granted Chinese registration.”

Give Hu people a test, and those who pass the test can get Chinese registration, which is also a big deal in the cloud.After all, according to the previous habits, there is no way to obtain Chinese nationality if you live for three generations and pay taxes.

At first, a few of them thought it was nonsense, but after watching Liu Tao's class and knowing the inside story of this test, they were more admirable.Perhaps, this is indeed a solution to the underpopulation of border counties.

"No, no, I'm talking about another aspect..." Guo Jia shook his head, "Guo has nothing to do these days, he's been drinking and meeting friends in the county town, and then got in touch with the county magistrate."

It's just that you are embarrassed to say that... Everyone gave this young man a supercilious look. Everyone present has a job, and this Guo Jia, relying on his relationship with Xun Yu, has been eating and drinking during this period of time, doing nothing.

Does Guo Jia care about other people's eyes?Of course he won't!Among the scholars, he himself is a relatively independent type, and the title of 'prodigal son' can tell the clue.

"The county magistrate came from the Zhen family in Zhongshan, and the patriarch had the eldest daughter Xu with the prefect, which can be regarded as an in-law relationship." Guo Jia recalled, "Drinking with him last night, we had a chat, and vaguely heard him mention that the prefect is a disciple of the immortal. , have learned the magic of immortality."

"Do you believe this kind of drunk talk?" Xun Yu shook his head. As far as men are concerned, drunk talk and love talk are the most unbelievable things.Because of this, he couldn't help but complain.

"Although you can't listen to drunken talk, there is also a saying called 'tell the truth after drinking'." Guo Jia replied, "Besides, there is nothing wrong with it. Since he dared to say that, of course he has his own evidence. Besides, the cloud The situation in the county is indeed somewhat miraculous."

"Could it be...the prefect really knows magic?" Simpi muttered, and everyone began to think.

"Although there is no definite evidence, there is always a truth behind any strange thing, right?" Guo Jia spread his hands, "Also, I have started to contact the master book recently. He was in charge of marching when the prefect raised troops The chief secretary's subordinates must know more than the county magistrate."

"Oh, that master Jane..." In everyone's minds, a person suddenly appeared, with a slovenly appearance, a somewhat sloppy behavior, and an existence that seemed to be in a state of drunkenness all day long.

Many people couldn't figure out why this kind of person could be the chief bookkeeper. Many people took a sigh of relief and wanted to replace him.

"Be careful, I've paid attention to this person, it's not as simple as it seems." Xun Yu reminded.

"Haha, you all showed your face in front of the prefect, but I didn't. To the outside world, I'm just a scholar who came to study in the cloud, and contacting him is just to discuss knowledge." Guo Jia smiled, and then looked at Xun Yu , "Besides, if I really encounter any problems, Wen Ruo will come forward to protect me, right?"

"Yes, yes, I will come forward." Xun Yu was speechless. Is this guy sure of himself?Make friends carelessly, make friends carelessly!

After a pause, he asked a rhetorical question: "But even if you know, the prefect really knows magic, so what?"

yes!Everyone is a little stunned by this question, even if they know that the prefect knows how to perform magic tricks, so what?

"Knowing fairy art, but changing Zhang Jiao, that's a demon!" Guo Jia teased, "But if it's a Han family clan relative, what should I do?!"

Chapter 255 The Arrested Spy Guo Fengxiao

This is a serious question, or a question that no one dares to think about.

Those like Zhang Jiao must be using sorcery, a sorcerer's way, they must be punished if they are not tolerated in the world.But a clan member of the Han family suddenly got the immortal law taught by an immortal, and what happened to be the current emperor's insane words...

It's really hard to imagine it, and it's hard to say it when you think about it. If it spreads out, it will definitely bring death.

"Speak carefully..." Xun Yue was the oldest, so he came forward to stop Guo Jia's words.This is not one family, so many families are involved, and some things can't be said casually.

"Haha, why deceive yourself and others?" Guo Jia laughed, "Guo is very curious, what secrets does the eunuch have!"

Seeing that he left immediately after speaking, everyone looked at each other in blank dismay. It could be seen that everyone's mood was a little complicated.

"That Guo Jia... belongs to the Guo family..." Xin Pi took the lead to ask the question. Generally, those who can enter the circle should be the big family in Yingchuan, the Guo family in Yingchuan, and they don't need to be inferior to the Xin family.

"Guo Jia is just a collateral lineage. His parents died early, and his family rules have been kept from him, so he has had this personality since he was a child." Xun Yu sighed. He was bullied by his tribe and suffered various injustices since he was a child.

Guo Jia's superficial debauchery is actually more unimaginably strong and open-minded.

"So that's how it is..." Hearing this, Simpi let go of his concern for Guo Jia, but he didn't despise Guo Jia because of it.
