Chapter 2191: Guizi rolls will come naturally, and the

  Chapter 2191 Guizi Juan is a matter of course, and the fruit is ripe

  After the inspection of Mizhi was a complete success, Feng Ziying was still not at ease, and went to Suide to continue inspecting the harvest in Suide.

  Suide was planted about ten days later than Mizhi, but the scale was larger, with a planting area of ​​about 800 mu. It was also divided into four types of areas, and seven points were selected as experiments.

  The situation is much the same. The highest yield per mu has reached 2,200 jin, the lowest is about 1,100 jin, and the average yield has reached 1,600 jin, which is quite gratifying.

Feng Ziying was not at ease with Wu Degui, the magistrate, thinking that the other party did not pay enough attention to him. Now it seems that this guy who looks like an old farmer is quite proficient in farming, and even personally participates in the planting, fattening and harvesting of potatoes. Feng Ziying was particularly satisfied with the fact that relevant personnel were required to make detailed notes on the potato planting process.

Calculated from 800 acres of potatoes, the potato output is about 1.3 million catties, which is no longer a small amount. If calculated according to the current price of corn, even if it is three catties of potatoes for one catty of corn, this is one Amazing numbers.

Now the price of corn in the entire Yan'an Prefecture is about five taels of money per stone, and if calculated on the basis of one hundred and twenty catties per stone, the price of corn per catty is about four quarters per catty, and three catties of potatoes are exchanged for one catty of corn. According to calculations, the batch of potatoes harvested in Suide Prefecture can be exchanged for 400,000 catties of corn, which is 3,500 shi of corn, which is not a small sum.

  And from the point of view of government relief, apart from the advantages of storage, corn is not even as cost-effective as potatoes. A refugee can get through a day with two catties of potatoes, and it is more convenient to eat them by steaming and roasting.

The only problem is the storage of potatoes, but as winter is about to enter, it can be stored in cellars for up to three months. Feng Ziying knows this, especially in northern Shaanxi. The temperature is low in spring, so it is possible to store for a long time, but it is more difficult when the temperature is high in summer and autumn. In that case, we can only solve this problem by eating potatoes first and saving corn and wheat. problem.

  Feng Ziying got drunk in Suide.

I really feel that it is very wise for me to discuss with Xu Guangqi in advance to carry out large-scale pilot planting in Shaanxi, and Xu Guangqi's seed preparations are quite sufficient. The first attempt has achieved such good results. I have to say that the first is that the timing is just right, and the second is all thanks to Xu Guangqi's full support, and there is also some luck in it. If the time is later, the time for planting potatoes this season will be missed, and it can only be planted until next spring, which will delay the big event.

   Now that this season has been planted, it is estimated that several states and counties can harvest one or two million catties of potatoes, which is of great help to the relief of the entire Yan'an Prefecture.

After waking up, she was still a little dizzy, but still in a good mood. Feng Ziying took a big sip of the lotus seed soup handed over by Miss You, and then breathed a sigh of relief, "This hangover is terrible, I can't drink like this in the future gone."

   "Sir, I'm afraid there's an unexpected surprise." Third Sister You said with a smile.

   "Oh?" Feng Ziying was surprised.

   "Miss Shi and her group have been exiled and have arrived in Suide."

  Sister You's words surprised Feng Ziying, "So soon? I know they came to Shaanxi, but why did they arrive in Suide so soon?"

"Maybe they are in a hurry. It is reasonable to say that they are going to be sent to Suzhou, Ganzhou. If they go on like this, they may not be able to reach the land during the Chinese New Year." Third Sister You shook her head, "Master, I really can't help them. ? Going to Suzhou, women and children like Miss Shi and the others, I'm afraid they can't bear such a torment. The conditions there are too bad, and the weather is also bad. They are no better than my second sister and I lived there since childhood. By the way, I am used to being pampered and treated like an exiled prisoner, how can I bear it?"

  Feng Ziying did not tell Third Sister You of her plan. After all, it still needs to be discussed with the Procuratorate, so it is not appropriate to say it to the outside world for the time being.

   "Well, I'm also thinking about it, but I still have to think about it carefully." Feng Ziying stood up, Qingwen and Heping'er didn't follow, and Third Sister You could only help him dress and freshen.

   "Then, do you want to meet Miss Shi?" Third Sister You asked.

"Let's see each other. I thought it would be better to meet again in Xi'an city, but we met each other. If I don't see you, it seems that I am too cold." Feng Ziying said frankly: "I may not see you for a long time. Sister Yun."

  Sister You glanced at Feng Ziying, "Sir, Mrs. Shi is a convict, you should think carefully about it..."

  Seeing Third Sister You's expression, Feng Ziying couldn't help but tap on Third Sister You's plump buttocks, "What are you talking about, I just saw you..."

"Ms. Xianggong's words don't mean it." Third Sister You giggled, "Ms. Shi is actually the most pitiful. There are two uncles like that. Her personality is my favorite. She is bright and generous, and she is worse than the third girl." Still upright, but it's a pity that this kind of thing happened, and I don't know what to do in the future? Then Sun Shaozu will definitely be punished by the court in the future. She is a widow at a young age, but what should I do? No, I I heard that she seemed to have broken off her engagement with the Sun family before, and I don't know if the Ministry of Rites has approved it?"

  Feng Ziying coughed dryly. The engagement between Shi Xiangyun and Sun Shaozu was complicated. The imperial court would definitely not easily approve such an obvious method of exoneration. Besides, historians themselves have problems. Shi Ding and Shi Nai are also the perpetrators of the Jiangnan conspiracy, and Shi Xiangyun will also be implicated.

Fortunately, Shi Xiangyun did not marry, and this was not a marriage contract made by her parents for her, so it seems feasible to raise an objection in the name of Jia Mu and ask for the dissolution of the marriage contract, but this matter is stuck in the Ministry of Rites, and the Ministry of Rites has no Officially approved, the Dali Temple of the Ministry of Punishment has to be dealt with according to the family members of the criminal Sun Shaozu, so Shi Xiangyun can't get rid of this biggest shackle.

Qi Yongtai also specifically warned Feng Ziying not to get involved too much in this matter, so as not to attract the attention of the censors of the Metropolitan Procuratorate. The daughter of the Shi family and the wife of the Sun family are all taboos. Affect Feng Ziying's future.

   Feng Ziying could only listen to Qi Yongtai's warning, but he didn't take it seriously.

If the imperial court can really take down Jiangnan quickly, whether it is the Sun family or the historians, it will be nothing to worry about, let alone a female stream, and it will not be taken seriously. There will be so many implicated, but Jiangnan will be stared at all the time, which is worrying.

   "Third sister, you can inquire clearly. I remember that you and Xiangyun are not that familiar." Feng Ziying glanced at Third Sister You.

"Look, Master is guilty, right?" Third Sister You covered her mouth and smiled, "Although I am not familiar with Miss Shi, my sister has also been in prison for so long, so naturally I am also very concerned about these things. , so when I come to my concubine and my second sister's place, I can't avoid mentioning these things."

"Why am I guilty?" Feng Ziying said stiffly, "Isn't it a matter of course to see Sister Yun? Besides, I am the governor of a province anyway. In this Shaanxi territory, who would dare to make trouble with me for such things? "

  Sister You smiled even more happily, "That's not the case, I just feel that my husband is a little guilty and wants to cover it up."

   Being teased by Third Sister You, Feng Ziying asked Third Sister You to arrange it. It was not appropriate to make a big fuss, but just quietly brought Shi Xiangyun to meet.

  With Third Sister You around, it is naturally impossible for Feng Ziying to have such close contact with Shi Xiangyun, but he just asked some questions and gave him some encouragement and comfort.

  From Shi Xiangyun, Feng Ziying also learned that Jia Amnesty was also among the exiles, but Feng Ziying was not interested in seeing Jia Amnesty, and there will naturally be opportunities in the future.

   Feng Ziying, who returned to Xi’an City, promoted the purge of the Four Guards of Xi’an. Under the deterrence of the Guyuan Army, the Four Guards of Xi’an began a large-scale streamlining and elimination.

   Either reorganize and go to the battlefield to fight, or leave the country.

  Is this still an option? Except for a very small number of people who deliberately wanted to serve in the army, most of them chose to quit their nationality.

If you want to leave, you can pay the money to get out of the country. This is equivalent to saying that the original private payment of the money to get out of the country has become a public process, but the money for getting out of the country is divided in half by the capital and the place of registration, and the place of registration is in the east of Xi'an Prefecture. The area after the war and some places in northern Shaanxi.

After the war, many places in northern Shaanxi and the eastern part of Xi'an Prefecture were almost turned into a piece of white land. The gentry and landlords were slaughtered, and the remaining land would naturally be confiscated by the local government. Now it can be used to sell to For these guard soldiers who are willing to leave their nationality, of course, the premise is that you can afford the money.

  The price of registering in northern Shaanxi is much cheaper, but on the Weihe Plain it is much more expensive, and it is up to you to choose.

  The next step is to start recruiting recruits to enter the reconstruction phase of the Xi'an Four Guards.

After Modren's troops completed a roundabout attack on Qingyang and Pingliang, they were finally "unsurprisingly" blocked by the assault battalion led by Kuang and his son in the area from Zhenning to Sanshui. , After several "entangling battles" and "persuading to surrender", Modren's department was finally recruited and directly incorporated into the Xi'an Four Guards Central Avantgarde.

   This also aroused great repercussions in the province. How could such a chaotic army that came and went like the wind, just ran back and forth twice and then "recruited" cleanly?

   And the Governor was so reassuring and bold that they were reorganized into the Guards. Although they have not entered Xi'an City yet, it seems that they will definitely enter the city, which is too incredible.
