He was betrayed at the beginning, from a cake seller to a wealthy person

After placing the soldiers, Chen Ping took Lu Yan to see the land he farmed.

Chen Ping said as he walked: "After spring, I planted the land as you said, but there was a late spring cold in March, and many of the seedlings may have been frozen to death."

The seeds in the field have already grown seedlings. At first glance, they are sparse and it looks like many of them have been frozen to death.

Chen Ping: "I originally planned to replant once the late spring cold was over, but you said you wanted cold-resistant seeds, so I stopped planting again."

Lu Yan nodded: "Yes, you can. It doesn't matter how many you plant, the most important thing is being able to withstand the cold."

Lu Yan asked again: "Where's the rice? Have you planted the rice?"

Chen Ping nodded: "Planted. More rice will die."

Chen Ping took Lu Yan to see the rice. Rice is grown elsewhere. There is a river not far from the outskirts of Liaoyang County. Chen Ping opened a paddy field by the river specifically to grow rice. When Lu Yan arrived, what she saw was a paddy field with twenty or thirty seedlings scattered here and there, which was too miserable to look at.

Lu Yan couldn't help but close her eyes, then opened them again and regained her composure: "It's okay, it's fine. I just want cold-resistant strains, so just plant them like this."

Chen Ping nodded and agreed.

Lu Yan said to Chen Ping: "These people I brought will also be farming in the future, but there is no rush this year. Just build a house first, just near your home. You can also help me look after it, if there is anything I need." Go to the county government office to find me."

Chen Ping looked at Lu Yan in surprise, and Lu Yan smiled and said, "The scholar who came to me last time is the newly appointed Magistrate Lu of Liaoyang County. If you have anything to do, you can go to him or me."

Chen Ping unexpectedly said with some understanding: "Last time, I felt that your temperament was extraordinary and your status must not be simple. I didn't expect that you would become our county magistrate at such a young age."

Lu Yan waved her hand: "Okay, okay, it's almost done."

Lu Yan followed Chen Ping back and called Zhe Mu over again, asking him to take a good look at the sheep. If that didn't work, he would build the sheepfold tonight.

Zhe Mu pointed to the patch of grass and said, "They have already started taking action. Some of them have gone to chop down trees."

Lu Yan was very pleased and felt that life was good.

Zhe Mu came here just to house these sheep. He gave the sheep to the wounded soldiers who were left here, and everything would be fine. He had to go back because those Beidi people who couldn't understand Chinese also needed him.

Zhe Mu followed Lu Yan back to the center of the city, one back to the inn and the other to the county government office.

Lu Sheng was already waiting for Lu Yan at the county government office.

After working hard all day and not having time to have dinner, Lu Yan cooked two bowls of clear noodle soup, and she and Lu Sheng sat down at the stone table in the courtyard to eat one bowl each.

Lu Sheng asked Lu Yan while eating, "Has everything been arranged?"

Lu Yan nodded: "Okay. I want to take a day off tomorrow and take them to Youzhou the day after tomorrow."

Lu Sheng: "There's no need to be so anxious. Why don't you ask them if they would like to stay in Liaoyang County for two more days? You can rest for a few more days."

Lu Yan didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "If this is Youzhou or Hengzhou, I would dare to ask them this, what is there to do in Liaoyang?"

Lu Sheng just wanted to retort that there were a lot of fun things to do in Liaozhou. After thinking about it, he felt that most of the fun things were things Beidi people were used to, so he swallowed his words.

"They are probably tired from traveling for so many days. They need to take a day off tomorrow." Lu Yan said, "Don't delay. I also want to see my pigs. Now I just regret not raising pigs in Liaoning." If you want to raise it in the state, you have to go to Youzhou to raise it.”

Lu Sheng shook his head: "It's not that you can't raise pigs in Liaozhou, but you have to take your time. It's impossible to raise a hundred pigs at once. There aren't that many pigs in Liaozhou, so you drive them here from Youzhou? It's unrealistic."

He thought for a while and then added: "If you want to raise piglets in Liaoyang, when the piglets are born, you can bring back two piglets, one male and one female. Let them give birth slowly and you can raise them slowly."

Lu Yan nodded: "Let's talk about it, don't worry, I just suddenly thought of this. Let's discuss the construction issues in Liaoyang County when I come back."

Lu Sheng looked at Lu Yan: "When you say this, you already have an idea in your mind. What do you want to build?"

Lu Yan hummed: "I want to take advantage of the fact that there are few people in the city to build public facilities first, such as building a public toilet first."

"Public toilet?" Lu Sheng repeated, "What is that?"

"Just build a public toilet in the city. Public toilets are called public toilets." Lu Yan explained: "The problem of urinating on the street must be changed. It is dirty, smelly and easy to transmit diseases. You don't want to do it again." Is there a plague? I know that every city has this problem. It’s a good time to develop a good habit when there are few people in Liaoyang. If you see someone excreting on the street, report it directly to the government and you will be rewarded with ten cents of silver. Anyone who reports will be fined twenty coins.”

"Furthermore, excrement can be used as fertilizer after it is collected and fermented. All crops depend on fertilizer. Transporting it directly from public toilets is better than spending money to collect it." Manure and urea are the best natural fertilizers, China Human and animal excrement has been used as fertilizer since ancient times, and this history began in the Shang Dynasty.

Although Lu Sheng had never seen this method of building public toilets on the street, when he was studying in the county school and the academy, there were toilets. The toilets were shared by everyone, so why couldn't they be considered public toilets? So he understood this form as soon as he heard it, and there was nothing difficult to understand.

Lu Yan told him the benefits. He thought about it along with Lu Yan's words, and found that public toilets were indeed beneficial without any harm, so he silently remembered them in his heart.

Lu Yan continued: "The medical office must be built as well. I brought Little Rabbit here just to let him lead a group of apprentices. When those few can treat people independently, they will all go to the clinic. There is no charge for the consultation. , only the cost of treatment is paid, we pay them wages, and the government subsidizes this part of the expenses. "

Lu Sheng nodded: "Where does the Yamen's money come from?"

"Wait until my trade routes are opened." Lu Yan said: "With so many good things in Liaozhou, are you afraid that you won't make any money selling them to the south?"

Speaking of opening trade routes, Lu Yan suddenly thought of caravans. When a few of them were invited to go to the Yili Department, they greeted the caravan and asked them to return to Liaoyang County first. Before escort Yang left, he greeted her and said that they were going to continue building the tea shed. Lu Yan hadn't come back yet. It’s time to go and have a look.

Lu Yan muttered: "By the way, go find Feng Si tomorrow!"

Lu Sheng:? ? ? ?

The topic was jumping around, and he was already trying to follow it, but it was still confusing.

Lu Sheng couldn't help but ask: "Why do you think of Feng Si again?"

Lu Yan glanced at Lu Sheng: "It's time for the caravan to go back. I'll go take a look tomorrow. If possible, we can go to Youzhou together the day after tomorrow."

Lu Sheng nodded in understanding. Lu Yan would never let go of anything around her that she could use.
