How I Survived in Transmigration with My Ghost Hubby

It is said that there are three fires for a new official to take office, and Ji Ran was still thinking about how to burn the first fire all the way, but when he got to the place, this fire made a boring fart.Hearing that the Department of Agricultural Education is linked to the Ministry of Household Affairs, Ji Ran thought that this yamen was very grand, but it turned out that it was a farmhouse, and he even edited it, plus a handyman in charge of cleaning, and there were only four people in total. .

Along the way, Ji Ran wondered why the Yamen of the Agricultural Education Department was so remote, but he never thought it would be like this.This is not remote, it is the suburbs.

In addition, there are no other yamen's nine-curved corridors, large courtyards and small courtyards, just a single Sanshe Zhuangzi, and behind Zhuangzi is a vast wasteland.

Ji Ran was led by the two editors to stand in the wasteland, silent for a long time, but in his heart he wished that the stingy wasteland would be captured and beaten up.

Damn, this official is so tired.

But Lu Zhen wasn't there, and there wasn't even anyone to complain about.It's not that Lu Zhen is missing again, it's that when the emperor ordered people to issue appointment letters, in addition to the necessary official seals and uniforms and a fixed monthly salary, he also gave a few acres of fertile land. Then he sent Li Gui to check it out, but he was worried that the other party was not experienced enough, so he asked Lu Zhen to follow him secretly.

It's just that he was taken care of there, and Ji Ran was alone in the job, without Lu Zhen by his side, he was not used to it at all.

Thinking of this, Ji Ran sighed.

"Master Ji, what do you think is wrong?"

Seeing him sigh, the two editors thought there was some dissatisfaction. They looked at each other, and one of the editors surnamed Qiu hurriedly stepped forward to ask carefully.Seeing how cautious the two are, it is estimated that they are waiting for his new official to take office. It is a pity that such a shabby place, not to mention Ji Ran, no one will be able to burn it.

Ji Ran shook his head, turned around and walked back.

"It's a waste of such a piece of wasteland to be empty." Ji Ran said as he walked, "Instead of being so barren and ugly, it's better to use it for land reclamation. Mr. Qiu, Mr. Cao, you two are responsible for going to the surrounding villages to find some strong laborers. The number of people will be ten first." If you don’t have enough people, you can find them again. The wages are calculated on a head-by-head basis, and no one pays twice after the work is done. The accounts of wages are clearly recorded, and I will go to the household department for reimbursement later.”

"Yes." The two said in unison, and Master Cao asked, "Then, shall we go now?"

"Go ahead, you can't just sit there for a day." Ji Ran said, "In the initial plan, let's find someone to use this wasteland first, oh, by the way, these ten people have to be found in different villages, and when we arrive It’s appropriate to gather again at the right time, and hold a group lecture. It can be said that these ten people are not only laborers, but also have to take on tasks. The selection of candidates not only requires brute strength, but also sharp minds.”

The transformation of agriculture did not happen overnight. The Southern Dynasties were so large that it would be better to start from the surrounding area and discuss the second step of the plan when there are achievements, rather than being ambitious and special.

Originally, he didn't know that Yamen was such a place, so Ji Ran thought about experimenting with enclosing land in the village and explaining the way of planting to the villagers by the way, but that would be relatively tiring and troublesome.In this way, the existence of this wasteland is just right, and in terms of providing convenience, it can be regarded as the icing on the cake.

I don't know whether such a place was intentional or accidental. If it was intentional, then the emperor's mind is really unambiguous!

Qiu and Cao received the task, and even went to the countryside to find someone in the village, but Ji Ran felt a little idle in his spare time.Fortunately, the Department of Agricultural Education is shabby and shabby, but it is worthy of the name, and it has all the farm tools in it.

There was nothing left and right, Ji Ran simply called the handyman to carry the hoe, and went to the wasteland behind to weed.

The two of them had one head at the other, and just after they had shoveled twice, Ji Ran suddenly stopped.

"What's the matter, my lord?" The handyman didn't understand, so he hurriedly stopped and asked him.

Ji Ran didn't speak, threw away the hoe and squatted down, pawed and pulled, picked up a tree from a small pile of soil and grass roots, shook off the soil and looked at it carefully.

The handyman went up to watch it for a long time, but couldn't see why, "My lord, is there anything special about this grass?"

"Bitter Artemisia." Ji Ran pulled away the soil and picked up a few more, and then said, "It's a good thing for clearing away heat and relieving summer heat, and it doesn't need to be fried, just wash it and rinse it with boiling water."

"Listen to your lord, this thing is still a medicinal material?" the handyman asked in surprise.

"Almost." Ji Ran stood up, "Don't move now, you take the hoe back, and I'll look around again, if it's really all herbs, it would be a pity to shovel them off like this." So saying, Ji However, there was a vague thought in his heart.

Naturally, the handyman did what Ji Ran said, and he didn't talk nonsense after listening to the order. He answered yes, took the hoe and went back.

Ji Ran wandered around the wasteland to check, and found that there are quite a lot of herbs, but none of them are expensive herbs, most of them are only for clearing away heat and relieving summer heat, and coughing due to wind and cold. In addition to bitter wormwood, there are also the most common martis grass, money grass, Pencil grass and the like, and even found a clump of fruity snake mulberry, the size of a red fingernail, crowded and piled on the coiled vines, it was quite gratifying to look at.

This kind of wild fruit is not big, but it tastes sweet and sandy. Ji Ran often picked and ate it when he was a child, but because this kind of wild fruit is rotten and cheap, the soil is not picky, no matter the cracks between rocks, dry cracked soil, or field ridges It can grow luxuriantly on mud walls. The adults in the family are worried that they will be splashed with pesticides, so they will lie to the children. Snake mulberry is the fruit eaten by snakes. Whoever eats it, the snakes will go looking for it. I haven't picked and eaten it again, but the taste is deeply in my heart after decades.

If you see it again, and know that there will be no pesticide pollution here, and it is pure natural green, you can't help but feel a little bit greedy and itchy.But it is probably because he was scared out of the shadows when he was a child, and he really wanted to reach out, and suddenly thought of the snake, Ji Ran didn't dare again, hesitated again and again, and finally gave up.

Qiu and Cao went out for half a day, and it was past noon when they came back.The two brought back ten people, most of them were young and strong, only one person looked thin and short, at most eleven or twelve years old, he was not related to strong labor.

"What's the matter with this kid?" Ji Ran pointed to the kid and asked Qiu Cao and the others.

As soon as Mr. Cao stood up and wanted to speak, the child fell to his knees with a plop.

"My lord, although the young one is small, he can do all kinds of dirty work. You, just accept the small one. The small one is small, and the salary is half that of the big brothers. I beg you, please accept the small one." Let's do it!"

The child knelt down and begged to kowtow, Ji Ran hurriedly pulled him up, "Okay, okay, I just want to ask you what you are doing? Get up!"

"Thank you, sir." The child kowtowed again, and stood up following Ji Ran's pull.

"It's not necessary to halve the wages. As long as you are diligent and can keep up with everyone's progress, you can pay as much as you want. That is, the amount of land reclamation work is not low. Can you handle it at a young age?" Although Ji Ran also knew In ancient times, children matured precociously, but seeing the slender arms and legs looking malnourished, he was still not at ease, and worried that the child would be exhausted and sick again.

"It can be tolerated! It can be tolerated!" The child was afraid that Ji Ran would regret it again, so he hurriedly nodded his head.

In this way, Ji Ran didn't get entangled and left him behind.Immediately counted the number of people, and prepared to take people to the wasteland behind, and then explain to them in detail, but just as he was about to turn around, he saw Lu Zhen standing outside the door with a smile, Ji Ran's eyes lit up, hindering others, Did not welcome out.

Ji Ran secretly winked at Lu Zhen to let him in, but Lu Zhen shook his head, pointed out, then turned and floated away.

Ji Ran: "..."

Ji Ran was puzzled, but he didn't have time to chase him out right now, so he simply put away his thoughts and turned around with a few people to the back.

"Wait, you first remove the grass in each area, but don't throw the grass around, shake it off and pile the soil under the eaves, and there will naturally be special personnel to deal with it. Your task today is to weed. I think you have brought farm tools. , then let’s start.” After a pause, Ji Ran added, “The government invites you here for work, I don’t want to see people stealing, raping, and playing tricks. Once found, they will be expelled immediately , take care of yourself."

With Ji Ran's order, several people immediately dispersed, each selected an area and began to get busy in full swing.Ji Ran stood there for a while, seeing that everyone was very active, he let Qiu and Cao do whatever they wanted, while he went to the eaves and squatted down to pick out the herbs from the pile of weeds just now.

Both Qiu and Cao turned around and wanted to leave, but they couldn't help but stopped wondering when they saw this, and looked over for no reason.

"Master Ji, what are you doing?" Master Qiu asked.

This wasteland is not only weeds, but also herbs, and the herbs have to be sorted out.

"Herbs?"

The two looked at each other.

"Master Ji, you asked them to straighten the grass, but they have to pick out the herbs." Master Cao asked.

"Yes." Ji Ran nodded as he was busy, "Later, we will pick together the herbs, pick them out and dry them, and we will keep them in storage. Maybe someday they will come in handy."

The two choked when they heard the words, and they both frowned, obviously not very happy.But after all, Ji Ran is the biggest here, even if he was dissatisfied, the two of them didn't show much on the surface.

Ji Ran saw it in his eyes, "You two adults, don't forget, what does our Agricultural Education Department do."

Ji Ran didn't say anything serious, but the expressions of the two of them changed slightly when they heard the words, and they hurriedly collected their thoughts and bowed to Ji Ran.

"There's no need for so many people to be busy here now. Mr. Cao and Mr. Qiu, you two don't have any editing work to do at the moment. Instead of being idle, it's better to find some work to do." The two frowned again, still Thinking it meant letting them go to work in the fields, Ji Ran said, "You two go to the market separately to buy some seeds and come back. You need food and vegetables, but if you want seeds, the seedlings are not busy, and those things are not put away. It won’t be too late to buy it after turning around.”

When the two of them heard that this was the case, even though it was an errand task that was not compatible with their own duties, they both breathed a sigh of relief.After everyone responded, they turned around and left, but the handyman had nothing to do, so he spontaneously came to work with Ji Ran.

Ji Ran liked this honest man very much, so he smiled and asked, "What's your name, brother?"

"Don't dare, my surname is Guo, everyone calls me the little old Guotou." Old Guotou said.

Ji Ran nodded, in the spare time of work, he couldn't help looking at the door, wondering why Lu Zhen didn't come in, and didn't know what he was doing outside.
