MTL - Wei and Jin Cooks-Chapter 759 Wang Xuan
Zhao Hanzhang did not see the "Wang Xuan" who was waiting in front of him, so he took people out of the city to look at the crops.
There was little rain in Yuzhou this year. Fortunately, they dug wells and ditches in advance, and most of the wheat fields and rice were irrigated when it was critical.
At this time, the wheat was already yellow. Zhao Hanzhang went to the field and touched the full ears of wheat. He felt comfortable physically and mentally. "Order to harvest, and dry the wheat as soon as possible and put it in storage."
"Yes." Zhao Yunxin asked after a pause, "Master, what should we replant after the wheat is harvested?"
In previous years, wheat was harvested on the last leg of the rain. Those near the water can be replanted with rice, which is counted as late rice, and harvested after the Mid-Autumn Festival; in places with less water, beans can be planted, which can be harvested before the Mid-Autumn Festival and after the spring rice is harvested, so that the autumn harvest will continue throughout the year. all autumn.
But at this time, Zhao Hanzhang was a little hesitant. She walked around the field, and finally stopped at the edge of the field, and saw a group of ragged people walking towards this side not far away.
Zhao Yunxin also looked over and explained: "It should be refugees from Jizhou. During this period of time, many refugees from Jizhou who went south due to the drought have flowed into Yuzhou, and the banditry in the territory has increased."
Only then did Zhao Hanzhang make up his mind, "Grow soybeans. Locusts don't like soybeans. Let them harvest and replant. Since there are so many refugees influx, they should find ways to use them. As long as there are things to do and food to eat, people's hearts will be stable. , stability will lead to less banditry."
Zhao Yunxin responded.
"The control of locusts still has to continue. Like the low-lying places on the river bank, as long as there are larvae found, they should be wiped out immediately. The school also has to assign tasks. It just so happens that they are going to have a summer vacation. Let them go back and publicize with the villagers. In the future The villagers know what to do if they encounter adults."
Zhao Yunxin responded, "My lord, can the locusts in Jizhou really fly to our Yuzhou?"
She said: "I think they don't fly very far, and they always stop after flying. Jizhou is so far away from Yuzhou, how can they come here?"
Historically, locusts from Jizhou not only flew to Yuzhou, but also to Sizhou and Bingzhou, and the entire Central Plains and northern regions were severely affected.
But this time, she also reminded Zu Ti to prevent and control the locust plague, and tried to kill more locusts. She even wrote to Shi Le and Liu Yi. The disaster situation should be different, right?
Zhao Hanzhang said: "Let's prepare for the worst situation and order the counties to do a good job in prevention and control."
"yes."
Zhao Hanzhang waved to the guards not far away, then glanced at the approaching refugee group, turned his head and said, "Yun Xin, you and a few guards will stay here for a while, and send these refugees to the county government office, so that Gao County Order them to be properly accommodated.”
"yes."
Zhao Hanzhang took the reins from the guard and was about to get on the horse. She glanced at the approaching refugee group again. She paused and narrowed her eyes to carefully size up the group of refugees.
She tightened the reins in her hand, and summoned a soldier, "Go up and ask, who is their leader, and bring their leader to see me first."
The personal soldiers responded, and quickly ran forward to stop the refugees who were approaching. After a while, they led a thin young man in ragged clothes.
The other party has disheveled hair, an unshaven beard, and a face full of dust and weather, but only a pair of piercing eyes, so he looks different from ordinary refugees.
There is a vitality in him.
The closer he got, the brighter the light in his eyes became, and in the end he passed the soldiers leading the way and walked towards her quickly.
The soldiers waiting behind Zhao Hanzhang saw this, and stepped forward a few steps to block Zhao Hanzhang.
Zhao Hanzhang pushed the people away, and the young man walked up to her quickly, looking at her excitedly, "The third sister of the Zhao family!"
Zhao Hanzhang felt that his voice was a bit familiar, so he stared at his face hesitantly. However, he was unkempt, and after looking for a long time, he still didn't recognize him, but his bones were good.
very nice?
Zhao Hanzhang looked at the figure of this person, and there was a name in his mind, but he didn't dare to answer it for a while.
The young man has already excitedly declared his identity, "Third sister, I am Wang Meizi!"
Zhao Hanzhang’s lips trembled, looking at the more than a dozen belts wrapped around the other party’s body, most of which were blue and gray, rough linen, obviously ripped from other people’s clothes and patched on, barely able to cover the broken clothes;
Looking down, he has straw sandals on his feet, with only one lace made of thatch. His feet are full of mud, not to mention the nails, which are gray and black inside.
It was really hard for her to imagine that this was Wang Xuan, a son of the No. 1 family in the capital she once knew.
Seeing her reaction like this, Wang Xuan knew that she recognized him. He couldn't help but smile, and laughed loudly: "I finally found you, you don't know how long I've been away."
A whole year!
This year, he entered a bandit den, worked as a military adviser for others, and recruited soldiers himself. Refugees flee with others.
During this time, he also entered the county government office, revealed his identity to the local officials, and wanted to ask the other party to send him back to Luoyang, but in the end he was caught as a liar and thrown into prison...
Walking around, he was carried by bandits to Jizhou when he was about to arrive in Luoyang, and finally wandered there for a period of time. When he encountered a drought, he managed to escape and followed the refugees all the way to Yuzhou.
Because I heard that Zhao Hanzhang is now in Chen County in Yuzhou, he took people all the way to thank the counties and counties along the way for solicitation, and ran to Chen County.
Oh, the people behind him are all the people he recruited along the way. Everyone ran for their lives together, but they recognized him as the boss.
Zhao Hanzhang hurriedly asked him to go home together, and left the rest to the soldiers to arrange.
Wang Xuan turned around and told the refugees a few words, then got on his horse and went back to the county with Zhao Hanzhang.
He asked anxiously: "I heard on the way that Second Sister and Fourth Niang are working under Third Niang?"
Zhao Hanzhang nodded and said: "Sister Huifeng stayed in Luoyang, Si Niang just took an errand to Ruyin County two days ago, but counting the days, she should be back soon, I will send a letter to her immediately, let She came back quickly."
Wang Xuan felt relieved, his eyes were a little red, "Don't worry, I'm just worried that the two girls will not survive in this troubled world, it's good to know that they are safe now."
He smiled at Zhao Hanzhang and said, "Thanks for meeting the third sister, you are the one who sheltered them."
Zhao Hanzhang hurriedly said: "Brother Shi underestimated them, and their achievements are based on their own abilities."
Wang Xuan smiled at her, and did not argue, but he knew in his heart how difficult it would be for two women to live alone in this world.
Especially when Wang Huifeng and Wang Yifeng were still in Shi Le’s hands, as their identities, they would definitely be given as trophies to those generals and soldiers, and his second and fourth younger sisters would rather break jade than destroy it.
Wang Xuan turned his head away, and waited to hold back his tears before turning around and changing the subject with a smile: "I also have some skills, so please don't give up on Governor Zhao, how about giving me a chance?"
Zhao Hanzhang laughed loudly when he heard the words: "Hanzhang's luck!"
