Farmer's little scholar

"That's true." Turning around again, he said to the magistrate, "Xiaosheng has finished what he wanted to say."

From the corner of his eye, he saw a guard quietly leaving beside the magistrate, and Mo Qiyu knew that he must have gone to check on the salesman.I also sighed secretly in my heart, I could only help Zhao Ming get here.After all, he only wanted to be a wealthy idler, and he didn't want to be involved in any bloody cases.

"Oh, oh, I remembered." The villager of Shanghe Village suddenly said loudly at this moment.

Thinking of the prefect above and the fellow prefect on the opposite side, he quickly knelt down and said: "The grassroots are rude, and I hope the prefect will forgive you."

The magistrate was still gentle and refined, he didn't care much about his rudeness, so he asked him to get up, "What did Village Chief Lin think of?"

"Yes" the villager wiped his sweat with his sleeve, and said stumblingly, "About six or seven years ago, there was a shopkeeper surnamed Zhao. Caomin didn't know his surname at all, but one day he ran into the village and knelt down." He begged us to help him find his daughter. He said that there was a daughter named Zhao An, who was lost in our Shanghe Village. He said that his wife brought the child from the town to Shanghe Village to play, and then disappeared. Caomin I searched for it with other villagers, but there was no information, and after that, it just disappeared.”

"Did you say how old the little girl is?" the prefect asked.

"Back to the adults, 6 years old, it seems."

"If it is counted according to six years ago, it happens to be the Year of the Goat." The Tongzhi said to the prefect.

Picking up the teacup, the magistrate put it in his hand to play with, and asked the village chief, "Did you lose children often six years ago?"

The village head thought for a while and said: "My lord, almost all the children in Shanghe Village where Caomin is located and in the surrounding villages have been lost. The farmers are poor, and basically all the children can go to the mountains to collect firewood or dig wild vegetables. I haven't been back. It is estimated that I was tricked by the wolf in the mountains."

Mo Qiyu became silent after seeing the magistrate after listening. The simple hall became extraordinarily quiet with the magistrate's silence.The wind outside is blowing with the warmth of early summer.Take the flimsy gauze clothes of the magistrate, and the long hair around everyone's ears.

The Zhifu-sama who was sitting in the upper position stopped the movement of the matcha cup, looked up at Tong Zhiming-sama, and said, "Check it out."

The two seemed to have a perfect understanding, Master Ming nodded and went out without asking any questions, so he must have a plan in mind.

Mo Qiyu lowered his head and squeezed Lin Xu's palm, hoping that he would not be too nervous.Mo Qiyu had sensed his uneasiness before.

Although it was his temporary decision to lead the magistrate to handle the case, he didn't want to scare Lin Xu.

Lin Xu also knew that Uncle Zhao Ming had a miserable life, but there was nothing he could do to help him.After all, I am just a little brother, who has no power, power or wealth, so how can I help?

Now that my husband has quietly provided clues to the magistrate, I am actually very happy in my heart. This is the perfect way to help Uncle Zhao without hurting my family.So he couldn't hold back, holding Mo Qiyu's hand tighter and tighter.

Unexpectedly, Mo Qiyu mistakenly thought that he was too nervous and scared.

Before the couple had time to communicate with each other, they heard the magistrate's gentle voice: "That's it for today, everyone has worked hard. Go back and rest earlier."

Everyone bowed and said goodbye, and Mo Qiyu also planned to take everyone from the Lin family along.

But I heard the magistrate say: "Mo Xiucai, why don't you stay and have a cup of tea before leaving?"

Although it is an inquiry, do you dare to go directly?At least in order not to cause trouble to his upper body or offend the magistrate, Mo Qiyu still smiled and agreed.

It's just that when Lin Xu saw that the magistrate left Mo Qiyu alone, he was extremely worried that their meeting with Zhao Ming would be discovered, so he kept silent and refused to leave.Even Mo Qiyu's persuasion was useless.

The magistrate smiled, and didn't care much about the extra person, and only said jokingly: "It's so sticky, it looks like a newlywed."

Mo Qiyu could only smile, pulled Lin Xu to stand by his side, and behaved elegantly: "Master Zhifu left Xiaosheng, what do you want to ask?"

The magistrate stood up, straightened his sleeves and said, "On the way here, I saw the paperwork handed over by your village chief, and it was full of appreciation and admiration for you. I heard that when there are more pests in spring, you gave the solution." Eliminate pests? Seeing the crops turn yellow is also the method you proposed to fertilize to provide nutrients?"

"Small students have little knowledge and experience. They are just humble opinions that have not been verified." Mo Qiyu was still very humble.

The magistrate shook his head and said: "It's Mo Xiucai who is being modest. When Fang came, a few of us had been to Shuixi Village, and the crops there were indeed much better than those in Shanghe Village. Wait for the people to harvest in a few days." When the crops are finished, this comparison is verified."

"The crop yield of Ruoshuixi Village is higher than that of other villages. I wonder what Mo Xiucai thinks about this method of benefiting the people?"

It's really a millennium fox.The magistrate looked indifferent, but he was testing himself every sentence.

"My lord, if this method can really increase production, please spread the word, so that more farmers will know and benefit more."

"Mo Xiucai is really selfless." The magistrate walked into Mo Qiyu and said, "However, since this is your contribution, the government will naturally not snatch it. I will recommend you along with this method."

"That Xiaosheng is here, thank you sir." Mo Qiyu respectfully saluted with his fists clasped.

"Oh, the government has also heard that Mo Xiucai has another skill in frying tea?"

"I don't dare to say it's craftsmanship, but I can't afford tea, so I researched it blindly."

"This government does not agree with what you said. This tea is very good. I just don't know how much is left at Mo Xiucai's place? I would like to double the purchase."

Seeing the sincerity of the magistrate, Mo Qiyu was no longer cautious.He could tell that the magistrate intended to make friends with him.

Talking about business with the magistrate, the atmosphere is much more relaxed.In the end, the two of them treated each other with the courtesy of peers, and they were no longer as polite and alienated as before.

When he was leaving, the magistrate Lan gave Mo Qiyu his jade token, with which he could come to the county government to look for him at any time.

Seeing the small courtyard of the Lin family, Lin Xu felt much safer, and was really relieved.

Pulling Mo Qiyu, he said, "Brother Yu, you are really brave. In front of the magistrate, you, you..."

Seeing that he couldn't say one, two, three, Mo Qiyu asked jokingly: "I, what's wrong with me? I'm not telling the truth?"

Seeing his smiling face, Lin Xu didn't know how much he was worried about him just now. He felt a little angry and said angrily, "You know in your heart whether it's the truth or not."

It was rare to see Lin Xu angry with him, and Mo Qiyu felt a little strange.However, my husband hurts himself, but I really can't make him angry.

Seeing Lin Xu who only gave himself the back of his head, Mo Qiyu took a step back, bowed to the end, and said in a very sincere tone: "Fu Langmo is angry, it's all Xiao Ke's fault. The fault is that I didn't discuss it with you and made my own decision. It made Fu Lang worry about me."

Hearing what Mo Qiyu said, Lin Xu stopped being angry.It's just that I haven't encountered such a situation, and I don't know what to do for a while.

Turning around to see what Mo Qiyu was doing, before he could move, Mo Qiyu grabbed both hands, swayed them around, and pouted at him in a coquettish manner.

But Lin Xu was so shocked that he quickly shook off Mo Qiyu's hand, and said while running, "Oh, brother Yu is bewitched."

Mo Qiyu was happy to hear him laugh, so he didn't plan to care about Lin Xu's rumor that he was "bewitched".

Lunch was eaten at Lin's house. Lin Xu hadn't eaten the food cooked by his aunt for a long time, so he couldn't control it and ate too much all at once.

Lying on the chair and touching my round belly, I felt very uncomfortable.Seeing Lin's mother approaching, Mo Qiyu stepped aside and asked the mother and son to say something personal.

I went to Lin Sheng and planned to discuss with him about the sale of this soap.Although I was too busy making tea and soap at the same time.

Mo Qiyu discussed with Cui Shi about teaching Lin Qiu how to make soap, and the two families split it into four or six, and of course signed a non-disclosure agreement.

Lin Hu, a small family, knows the recipe. In order to earn more money, they will naturally try to keep the production method.

Now Mo Qiyu is planning to make essential oils based on soap and upgrade it to soap.Find more outlets and sell them.Just count the money at home by yourself in the future.

Lin Sheng approached Mo Qiyu and motioned him to come with him.The two entered Lin Sheng's room and sat behind the round table.

Lin Sheng rubbed his hands, and said with some embarrassment: "I... I want to ask Qi Yu about your soap business, can I also participate?"

"Of course." Seeing that the conversation had started, Mo Qiyu said, "Although the soap has basically been given to Lin Qiu, we only get a share. But I want to make soap."

"Soap?" Lin Sheng's eyes rolled, he couldn't stop thinking and didn't understand very well, he just asked, "Then does this have the same effect as this soap?"

"It's the same, but it will be more fragrant than soap." Mo Qiyu explained: "The main function is to remove dirt, but if the essential oil is extracted and then blended into soap, it is soap. Clothes washed with soap will carry The scent of the soap. The scent depends on the scent of the flower we use. For example, if we use pomegranate, then it is the scent of pomegranate, and rose is the scent of rose.”

Lin Sheng listened carefully to what Mo Qiyu said, but it was still a bit difficult to understand, especially when Mo Qiyu said how he planned to extract the essential oil.

"Finally, repeat heating, cooling, and filtering, and finally we can get the essential oil. After that, we can add a few drops when making soap." Mo Qiyu finished his long speech, took a sip of water, and then observed his uncle Brother's reaction.

Of course, he deliberately told Lin Sheng everything at once, and the purpose was to see how much Lin Sheng could remember.He needs to know whether Lin Sheng can adapt to discuss business with others and understand the other party's obvious meaning and the other party's subtext.

But it seems that although my uncle is a bit confused, he probably understands it.

But let's not mention the reaction speed, fortunately, I also fell in love with Xiao Chen early on.With Xiao Chen's ability to communicate with others and his elder brother's stable and down-to-earth appearance, even if the business fails to be negotiated when he goes out, he will not suffer a loss.

I still have to go to town another day, and the manager of the same week wants Xiao Chen to come over.Just in time, I also asked Xiao Chen if Master Zhang had found out that he had already saved enough money.

And didn't they also take 300 taels from Boss Qi and Shopkeeper Qian to buy mountain land? ?
