Ding Tian's Ancient Life

This person is none other than County Magistrate Xu.

According to Ding Tian's understanding, it was these top leaders who had a meeting here for a few days, and then they were about to go back. On August [-]th, County Magistrate Xu only sent his son to give gifts, but he didn't come.

This time he came, no matter what Ding Tian said, he had to be invited once.

But not in a restaurant, but at home.

Wang Zuo didn't come to dinner today, so Ding Tian cooked a big harvest for County Magistrate Xu.

"Your family's business is doing well now. The price of purchasing grain is very fair, and the army also purchases some grain from your family. They give you real money. Don't worry." County magistrate Xu ate and drank. Drinking a little wine, he praised the Ding family's business very much.

This year is another bumper harvest year. As long as there is no foreign aggression in the Northland, every year is actually good and the weather is good. If there is a war, the Northland will also bear the brunt.

"It would be great if the family could find a way to sell grain for the folks." Ding Tian didn't take credit for it: "Besides, the atmosphere in the county is good, and you are a good parent official."

"Hehe..." County magistrate Xu was indeed somewhat complacent.

"If Nama County Magistrate, even if there is such a store, he would not dare to open it, let alone expand it." Ding Tian complimented again

a bit.

This made County Magistrate Xu even more happy: "I have done my duty faithfully."

He didn't say anything about calling himself "this county" or "Master Ben" in front of Ding Tian, ​​but he still talked as usual, just like before.

After the two talked and laughed, County Magistrate Xu asked him: "Why do you become neighbors with the Governor's Mansion? Isn't this too small?" It's hard to take care of a rich family, and this one lives next to him. next to each other.

"I can't help it!" Ding Tian laughed, "Who told me to come first? The Governor's Mansion came later. The Governor's Mansion is so big, and the residents in the front and back streets occupy it all. I didn't catch up with the good time."

"What time is it?"

"Demolition..." Ding Tian muttered.

In modern times, who doesn't want to be a demolition household?

Then the compensation should not be too much, and the second is to occupy land, build an oil well, and set up a utility pole in the field, it will be beautiful, and the government will give a lot of compensation.Just because their family has real estate and fields in the urban-rural fringe

Ground.

The yard alone occupies an area of ​​over 300 square meters, but in terms of the area of ​​the house, it is more than [-] square meters, and there is such an area on the real estate certificate.

hehe…….

"You!" County Magistrate Xu didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Even if the Governor's Mansion can give compensation, how much can it possibly give? The most is that the normal house price will go up by [-] to [-]%. Do you want the Governor's Mansion to be built in the Beichong Mansion? That's because the land can be expropriated. Some of them are sincerely doing business, and some are here to earn money. Wait, the prince is not easy to fool !"

As a person who came from the bottom, magistrate Xu bowed his head in front of these officials, because he only accumulated such an official position due to work, and he was still a scholar, not even a juren. If he could become a county magistrate, he would be the end up.

A person with no future, who cares about him?

So in the past two days, County Magistrate Xu had been left on the bench. Fortunately, Zhifu Du missed his old love, and he and Master Du were classmates and friends, so he was not completely ignored.

And His Royal Highness King Ning also named him, saying that the county he restored was the best, and encouraged him to make persistent efforts, which made him shine in front of everyone.

Otherwise, who knows who he is?

Of course, he also knew that there was a bit of Ding Tian's effect in it.

"Oh, really?" Ding Tian scratched his head and smirked: "I really don't know, hehe, but it's good to be a neighbor to the Governor's Mansion, at least it's safe here!"

After saying this, County Magistrate Xu laughed loudly: "Not bad, not bad! Who dares to find it uncomfortable here!"

The two ate and drank, and finally Ding Tian sent Magistrate Xu away. He was still so simple, with a small carriage, a coachman, and two yamen servants accompanying him to protect him. Ding Tian didn't know him, so it was said that they were newly recruited.

This is to ensure his safety, otherwise he would not even bring these two people with him.

They didn't go back until the end of the month, and Fucheng was cleared up, and because the weather was getting colder and colder, everyone started to have a cat winter.

On this day, Ding Tian was at home, and Aunt Jin brought him a can of spicy cabbage: "It's well pickled, it's delicious!"

"Then I'll eat it tonight!" Ding Tian accepted the food unceremoniously.

In the evening, Ding Tian really made stir-fried pork belly with spicy cabbage, and Wang Zuo took a bite: "Is it not bad?"

"This is spicy cabbage, haven't you ever eaten it?" Ding Tian picked up the dish for him: "Let me tell you, this is delicious, it can be regarded as a fresh side dish in winter."

"I have two separate rooms where I grow some vegetables. Go and have a look when you have nothing to do, and let them grow whatever you want to eat.

"Wang Zuo told Ding Tian: "It will grow this winter, how can we do without green vegetables. "

"That's right!" Ding Tian nodded in agreement: "My corner house on the west side is unoccupied, and I have grown a lot of things. I invite you to eat it then!"

The corner room was about the size of a single apartment, about [-] to [-] square meters, with a small kang, and the rest of the place was planted with some small green vegetables by Ding Tian. In fact, he also planted ten watermelon seedlings. Watermelons cannot be grown. After all, at this time, there are no glass windows, and the windows are all made of mulberry paper. The light transmission is not very good, and it is impossible to open the windows for ventilation in winter.

Whether it is possible to grow watermelons, or to ripen them... In fact, Ding Tian is not sure.

After all, he is not a professional greenhouse farmer. It is not bad to know how to use flower pots and wooden boxes to fill soil and grow vegetables.

This is also forced to do nothing, but if there is a way, he will not be able to grow vegetables by himself.

As soon as September arrived, before it snowed, the Ministry of Criminal Justice's approval came back, because His Highness Ning Wang was here, so he didn't even need to be escorted to Beijing, and directly cut off An Hongqing's head.

An Hongqing's stolen goods were taken out, and all of them were taken into the Governor's Mansion, which was actually King Ning's place, but the higher-ups ignored this, and no one dared to raise the issue of the ownership of the stolen goods.

Especially when such a sensitive thing as the Mongolian Night Pearl is involved.

When An Hongqing died, there was no proof of his death.

Before the Double Ninth Festival came, the first snow fell. When Ding Tian got up in the morning, he felt that the outside was unusually bright. He opened a small gap from the window and saw that there were pieces of heavy snow outside.

Moreover, the temperature dropped by more than ten degrees in an instant. Ma Liu, who got up before dawn, had already burned the kang, so Ding Tian's room was not cold, but he was about to get up.

While eating breakfast, Ding Tian looked outside: "It's snowing today, everyone should dress thickly, and don't go out to work if you have nothing to do, so as not to get cold. For the snow, just sweep the road, and you don't need the ones on both sides anyway. No one left either."

"Young Master Tian, ​​there are people over there who come to sweep the snow before dawn." Ma Liu told Ding Tian, ​​"It's all gone..."

Ding Tian hehe: "Okay."

In fact, although the weather is cold in September, the snow may melt when it falls, and after melting, it will freeze to ice.

It was winter, and everyone put on winter clothes, and Ding Tian was wrapped into a ball. When he arrived at the government office, he saw that the jailers were doing the same, and they had fun with each other.

"This year's weather is quite cold. Unexpectedly, before the Double Ninth Festival, it will be the first snow." The one who wears the thickest is Old Zheng. Others are still wearing cotton clothes and trousers. Sheepskin jackets are all put on.

"You put on the old sheepskin jacket now, what will you do when the cold weather comes?" Ding Tian was delighted to see him.

"At that time, I don't plan to go out." Old Zheng Shu not only has old sheepskin jackets, but also dog fur hats. The dog fur hat keeps warm very well.

The winter in the Northeast is very cold, and the northwest wind often blows. When the wind blows to the face, it hurts like a knife cut, so it is important to keep the head warm, and the best thing to keep the head warm is a dog fur hat.

The fur of dog fur is warm, strong and durable, and has excellent moisture resistance.

The dog fur hat is thick and comfortable to wear on the head, and more importantly, it suppresses the wind.

At the same time, dog skins are economical and cheap, and almost every family raises dogs. Dog skins are mainly used to make hats, which saves costs and has sufficient supply.

In the evening, Ding Tian returned home with a dog fur hat. As soon as he entered the door, he saw Wang Zuo holding a fur hat made of sable fur in his hand.

When Wang Zuo saw Ding Tian coming in with a hat on his head, his face suddenly fell down with a "clack": "What is that thing on your head?"

"This is a dog fur hat..." Ding Tian swallowed, "It was distributed by the government office, one for each person, what kind of hat are you wearing?"

son?Why is it so beautiful? "

It can be seen that it is sable fur. Ding Tian saw it at a place selling mink fur coats before. My mother bought a mink fur coat and bought a hat like this for my father. My mother’s mink fur coat cost more than 1 yuan. , Daddy's mink fur hat is only more than 1000, and it is still an ordinary mink fur hat.

The sable fur costs 4000 yuan...but it is artificially bred sable fur.

But the one Wang Zuo is holding in his hand is definitely wild!

The fur is smooth and smooth, and it is definitely not ordinary at first glance.

"This is a sable fur hat. I made a few of them, but I can't wear them all at once. Seeing that you are missing a hat, I'll bring you one." Wang Zuo glanced at Ding Tian's head again: "Why do you wear a dog fur hat?" The hat is so ugly?"

Ding Tian didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "You have to wear it even if it's ugly? Otherwise, you'll freeze your head when you go out."

Even though he said so, he took off his hat and put it aside casually. After taking off the big clothes he was wearing outside, he changed into his shoes and went into the house. He sat cross-legged in the pit and took the mink fur from Wang Zuo's hand. The hat, taking advantage of the light in the sky, looked carefully: "Is the mink fur comfortable to the touch?"

"Of course, this is a large forest surrounded by Zhuangzi outside the pass, and this kind of small things are specially raised in it." Wang Zuo was finally happy: "In addition to this hat, there is also a big cloak, and I will bring it to you when the time comes." .”

"I don't dare to wear such a good thing casually." Ding Tian is well versed in the principle of "wealth should not be revealed". This thing is worth at least a few hundred taels of silver. People poke the spine?

But seeing that Wang Zuo's face was becoming elongated again, he quickly added it: "I have to keep it well, and when it's Chinese New Year, I can wear it and go home, so that everyone in the village will be envious!"

Wang Zuo's face looked better again: "Then you should keep it well, and wear it out during the Chinese New Year."

Ding Tian nodded hurriedly: "Hey!"

After putting away this thing, I have time to talk about other things: "Now it's snowing and winter, and the weather is cold. You should wear more clothes when you go out."

Although he knew that exhortations were useless, Ding Tian couldn't help exhorting: "You don't know, it's not even the Double Ninth Festival, and it's snowing here."

"Can I not know?" Wang Zuo told Ding Tian the bad news: "It snowed on the grassland in August. This year, the weather here is good, and the cattle and sheep on the grassland are fat and strong, but this winter is different. It’s too cold there, and there are not many leeward places on the grassland, whether the cattle and sheep can survive this winter is still a question.”

Ding Tian frowned: "Is there a white disaster on the grassland?"

The white disaster is that the wind and snow are too strong, and that kind of wind and snow is the sharpest on a plain like grassland. Let alone people, sometimes cattle and sheep can freeze to death.
