At the same time, the original Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove
They are also working fast, appearing in different areas that they are responsible for, and they are responsible for some planting matters.
In different areas of Hanzhong City, orders were issued quickly.
In Jingzhou, when the news that the whole of Jingzhou was going to plant rice, a new crop, was issued and posted in the cities of the entire Jingzhou area, it also aroused violent reactions from the people.
"what!!"
"Want to plant new crops?"
"And the yield is not as high as potatoes, so why plant them?"
"We don't want to plant them. Although the new crops are more suitable for staple food, we are poor people. We can just eat these potatoes, and we don't want refined grains!"
"Yeah, compared to the past, it's much better now!"
"Isn't it planting for those officials? They want to eat better food??"
"."
Such gossip spread throughout the entire Jingzhou area.
Many people, although they don't say it, complain in their hearts. They don't want to grow low-yield rice, but potatoes.
Because the yield of potatoes is guaranteed, even in the event of drought, their growth will not be affected too much, and the harvest this year is also good.
They didn't understand why the lord made such an announcement.
Could it be that he was bewitched by some traitor?All the common people were puzzled by this, especially when they heard that it was a new type of grain planted for officials, the common people were even more reluctant.
Is this for oneself, regardless of the life and death of the people? ?
These false information, of course, were intentionally disseminated by spies from other territories. They hid among the people in order to cause a vicious cycle of law and order in the entire city.
They are only afraid of chaos in the world, as long as there is chaos in Hanzhong, it will be beneficial to their lord.
These rumors also made the people a little unstable to a certain extent.
On this day, the people of Jingzhou City were all gathered in one place. In order to solve this problem, Ruan Ji directly asked the local government to gather the people together.
Because the new season of potatoes has been harvested, and the new round of planting, the government has mandated that potatoes cannot be planted, saying that too much potato production will easily affect its price.
As well as problems such as difficulty in preservation, the common people had to stop temporarily.
"Village chief, do we really want to grow rice?"
"Many people in the village disagree, why do you have to do something that makes the people unhappy?"
"You know what a fart, just be obedient!"
"Have you forgotten, who helped us when we couldn't eat in the past, and we can't be ruthless people!"
"My lord has his own reasons for making such a decision. Don't listen to other people's slander, otherwise, don't blame me for being rude!"
"Yes, village chief!!"
Countless villagers stood densely in the square, and they were all discussing this matter, but for many people, their faces were a little displeased.
Obviously, it was influenced by those rumors.
And the common people are extremely worried that if there is no high harvest, their planting output in the second half of the year will be greatly affected.
At that time, if the tax cannot be paid, will it disappoint the lord? ?
The common people knew that the lord had given them everything, but they still instinctively resisted those unfamiliar crops.
Because no one has planted before and has little experience in planting, if something goes wrong, they will live up to the trust of the lord in them.
Most of the common people are not willing to grow rice because of those secret spies instigating dissension, but because they are afraid that the cultivation will not be done well and the lord will be disappointed.
After all, even if their output in the second half of the year is low, the food stored in their family will not make them starve.
Nowadays, many people are willing to sell potatoes and exchange them for money, which is stored in money houses all over the country. These money houses are currently in the initial stage.
People save money in it, and there is interest.
And Jiang Chen was able to use all the money to improve people's livelihood, this is the meaning of taking from the people and using it for the people.
When the money generates income, it will be able to pay interest on savings to ordinary people.
Saving money in a bank can still earn interest, this is simply unheard of, and hearing that it was opened by Jiang Chen, the common people expressed their reassurance.
Now people are willing to store money in the bank, because there is a bank, so that people will not be worried about it, and they are not afraid of being accidentally stolen.
If this was stolen, they would not be able to find a place to cry.
Just when everyone was discussing, Ruan Ji, led by the county magistrate, appeared on a podium in the center of the square, and everyone immediately looked over.
"Everyone be quiet!"
"Let me introduce you from this county. This is Mr. Ruan, who was sent from Hanzhong!"
"Just to give you a detailed explanation about the planting of new crops, everyone applauds and welcomes!"
Applause and welcome has also become a new type of culture in Hanzhong City.
These are all influenced by Jianghu. When this kind of culture is popular, it is as fast as the speed of air transmission, which is unimaginably fast.
As long as it is a wonderful performance or speech, the common people will applaud unconsciously.
This kind of culture has begun to take root in the bones of the people, and they instinctively feel that this is a kind of affirmation and respect for others.
"Hello everyone!"
"I am the new director of the Jingzhou Agricultural Bureau!"
"My lord sent me here to guide everyone in planting rice, a new crop!"
"The main reason why rice is planted is that eating this crop will make everyone healthier. Potatoes are good, but they are more suitable for cooking!"
"We southerners are used to living with rice. Therefore, this rice is a new type of rice with a very high yield. As long as it is planted, everyone will be able to eat delicious rice."
Ruan Ji's speech was very simple.
He didn't tell the common people any great principles at all, but talked about delicious food, which aroused the saliva of countless common people, which was really right.
They used to eat coarse grains such as millet and millet, and the delicious rice. The taste is so nostalgic, which makes most of the people swallow their saliva uncontrollably.
It's so tempting to say, this is simply an indiscriminate blow!
"I believe everyone will miss this taste!"
"How should I say this, it should be a kind of nostalgia, and we southerners are used to rice, if we don't eat it for a day, we will feel a little uncomfortable!"
"It feels like I'm always short of a few meals, doesn't it?"
