I, above the court, angrily rebuked the faint king

After everything was settled, Zhengzhou and Wang Shouren slept in the fairy mountain under the arrangement of Mr. Chu. Zhengzhou spent the whole night thinking about why the environment in the fairy mountain gave birth to many rare foods such as potatoes and corn.

In the end, after much deliberation, I couldn't figure it out.

Then fell into a deep sleep.

The second day was full of light.

Zhengzhou woke up from his sleep, greeted Elder Chu hastily, and took Wang Shouren down the other side of the mountain.

On the way, Wang Shouren asked, "Elder Chu feels bored here, why don't we take him down the mountain?"

Zhengzhou shook his head: "Everyone has his own choice. Although this place is lonely, he chose it himself. If he followed us down the mountain, he would not follow his wish. I'm afraid it would be difficult to live longer."

This kind of life of picking chrysanthemums and seeing Nanshan leisurely under the eastern fence, some people hope, some people despise, Zhengzhou is indifferent to this.

Their choices don't affect more people, so why deliberately break them?

This is not good for them.

Zhengzhou had a clear mind and went straight with Wang Shouren, thinking about how to promote the cultivation of potatoes and corn.

Handing them over to the new dynasty is certainly a way, but it is not the best solution at the moment.

After all, the new dynasty has just been established, and the people's knowledge of these two crops is limited, so there may be problems if they are planted rashly.

What Zhengzhou wants to do is to give these two crops to people who are more familiar with planting. First, do a wave of experiments, and then plant them in large quantities after confirming that they can be promoted.

In this way, the cost will drop sharply, and a lot of unnecessary troubles will be saved.

But after the Song Dynasty fell, there were very few people with this ability.

At least the current Xin Dynasty does not.

Therefore, Zhengzhou was constipated and did not distribute these two crops to others.

The best way now is to take one step at a time, and there will definitely be better countermeasures in the future.

After descending the mountain, his vision suddenly opened up. Zhengzhou looked at the fields rising and falling in front of him, and was startled. What kind of place is this?

How can there be so many good fields?

We must know that after the decline of the Song Dynasty, good land became a thing of the past.

Afraid of being expropriated by the government, many farmers in the south who are suitable for living and planting deliberately do not plant, fearing that they will be seen by the Song Dynasty government and then expropriated.

More importantly, the farmland here is lush with branches and leaves, which is obviously beyond the reach of ordinary people.

Compared with the farmlands in the north, this is like the bright moon compared to the stars.

Can't be compared.

"Which one of the various schools of thought in the front belongs to?" Zheng Zhou asked, actually already had the answer in his heart, and was just waiting for Wang Shouren to confirm it for himself.

Wang Shouren said: "It's the land of the farmers. In fact, it can't be called a land. They don't have a high status in Kushan City. They are only responsible for agricultural production."

Zhengzhou laughed, isn't that high?

Grasping agricultural production is equivalent to grasping the lifeline of a city. If this is not high, other cities will die.

Wang Shouren said: "The farmers never greedy for power, they only care about their own one-third of an acre of land, that's why I say their status is not high enough."

Zhengzhou frowned: "Since that's the case, why are the farmers also driven to the south, just to survive?"

Wang Shouren sighed: "This matter is also related to Da Song. The peasant family helped Da Song manage the territory at the beginning. They worked hard and worked hard without complaint. There was never even a single complaint."

"Later, the Song Dynasty raised taxes, and the farmers couldn't see it, so they asked the emperor to show mercy and let the farmers go."

"The emperor at that time was furious and killed hundreds of peasant disciples, leaving only a dozen to live in the south again."

Zhengzhou suddenly realized that taxation has always been the most intuitive and supreme right of the emperor, how dare the peasant family do this?

It would be considered a great mercy not to be driven out to death by the emperor.

They did the right thing, but not what they were supposed to do.

There are many cases of this kind of situation in Song Dynasty.

Farmhouse is just one of them.

Wang Shouren then said: "The peasant family has a good relationship with our Legalists, but they hate people in the imperial court, whether it is the Song Dynasty or the New Dynasty."

Zheng Zhou smiled and asked, "What do you mean?"

Wang Shouren already knew what Zhengzhou was capable of, so he didn't dare to say anything.

Zhengzhou waved his hand and said, "Let's go, no matter how difficult it is, you have to experience it. Besides, didn't you say that the peasant family's status in Kushan City is not high?"

"Since the status is not high, people will naturally control it. For us, this may not be a bad thing."

Wang Shouren nodded and agreed, he had already figured it out, and Zhengzhou could do whatever he said he should do.

As for those extra flamboyant intestines, they were all wiped out after Zhengzhou easily captured the Legalists and the public losers.

Arriving at the foot of Kushan City, Zhengzhou and Wang Shouren drove straight in.

It's near the water to block the south, and there are mountains around, so it's difficult to enter. Because of this, there are not many soldiers in Kushan City.

This is a paradise exclusively for farmers.

After entering Kushan City, Zhengzhou felt very disappointed. Compared with Fengming Fort and Canglang City, this city has no merits and is not prosperous. Everyone is a disheveled farmer, the economy is not prosperous, and it is not lively , but everyone seemed to be able to barely fill their stomachs.

In troubled times, being able to fill the stomach is the greatest happiness.

The farm family is not the leading family or authority in Kushan City, so it is difficult to find them in Kushan City.

Under Wang Shouren's guidance, Zhengzhou came to the prefect's mansion in Kushan City. After a short briefing, a middle-aged man walked out of the prefect's mansion.

He has a serious face and doesn't smile.

Seeing Zhengzhou, who had declared himself as his family, his face was still ice-cold, not as enthusiastic as the prefects of other cities.

Wang Shouren said in Zhengzhou's ear: "This man is Zhou Run, a supporter of the Great Song Dynasty. Don't expect him to submit to the new dynasty. The best way is to kill him directly."

Zhengzhou glanced back at Wang Shouren, and then saluted the serious prefect in front of him: "Zhengzhou has met the prefect Zhou."

Zhou Run said coldly: "If you have anything to say, just say it. Our Kushan City has never been the territory of your new dynasty. If you want Wu Tong, send someone to fight it as soon as possible. Don't try to make me surrender just by talking."

Sure enough, Zhou Run was just like what Wang Shouren said, he was a firm supporter of the Song Dynasty.
