Chapter 676: I can’t understand it, but I’m shocked! Why are there still people who give gifts to beg for death?
Yan Chen is not far away.
Yan Chen, who heard the whole conversation, hurried over and held his hands in his arms: "Yan County is definitely not like this, absolutely not like this!"
Yan Kuo slapped Yan Chen in the face. He went up and asked angrily: "You are the traitor who is slandering our Yan County?!"
"Whose name is your traitor? Who sent you here!"
Although Yan Chen was Yan Kuo's clan brother, Yan Kuo's slap was merciless.
As soon as the slap was removed, Yan Chen's cheeks became obviously red.
Yan Chen didn’t pay attention to the pain in his cheek, and just kept shouting: "Misunderstanding! It’s all a misunderstanding!"
"Our Yan County is really a place with outstanding people, and it is even more sophisticated when it comes to thieves. Sharp!"
"What the common people said to Shangguan just now is that there may be some trouble due to the recent arrival of a group of bandits in Yan County."
"Of course, we, the people of Yan County, are voluntarily suppressing bandits and eliminating thieves, and the soldiers of Yan County are also patrolling every day. I think it won't take long to restore peace to Yan County!"
Wu Qing was slightly surprised. He asked strangely: "Really?"
"Is it such a coincidence?"
Yan Kuo made a look of surprise on his face, patted his forehead and said: "It is true!"< br>
"Recently, there has been a stream of thieves here, and I am also leading the way to eliminate the thieves, Cao Qingjie. I never thought that the Guizhou leaders were also voluntarily suppressing the bandits."
"It's just that this fact is a trivial matter, so I didn't inform the superior officials."
Wu Qing frowned and said: "Such things are trivial to the county officials, but they are a big deal to the Agricultural Research Office. "
"Colleagues in the Agricultural Research Office mostly live in the fields without the protection of city walls."
"Security within the territory is particularly important!"
"Such precious talents. , you can’t go into danger!”
Yan Kuo was heartbroken, stretched out three fingers and said: "Three days!"
"In three days at most, Yan County will be safe and sound!"
All the bandits and bandits near Yan County will be either It is related to the Yan family, or to Xiong Liu and Qu Qiu.
As long as the three of them work together, Yan County can maintain peace for a period of time!
Wu Qing still took a step back and shook his head: "Otherwise, I'd better take a look again."
"The territory of Nanjun is very vast, and it is not inferior to Yan County."
"I can't bear to bother the officials of Yan County too much in order to study and evaluate farmland."
Aren't you bad?
We are bad!
Yan Kuo took out two golden beans from his arms, secretly put them into Wu Qing's hands, and whispered: "Misunderstandings, they are indeed all misunderstandings."
"Yan County is a major county in Nan County. I dare to say that Yan County is definitely the safest place in Nan County."
"Wu Yanjian doesn't need to worry too much, at least take a look before talking!"
< br>Feeling the golden beans in his hand, Wu Qing panicked: "This, this, this, no, no, no! This is against the law!"
"Yan Prisoner, take it back quickly!"
Seeing Wu Qing's unconcealable panic, Yan Kuo felt happy.
This person has never been given gifts, at least not much!
His focus turned out to be whether it was legal or not, not whether there were enough!
Sure enough, the imperial examination officials were so unreliable that they actually appointed such an important official position to such an inexperienced young man!
This kind of new official with little experience is the best to deal with!
Yan Kuo seemed to be more surprised than Wu Qing and asked: "Wu Yan, what do you think you are doing?"
"Although the official is a little helpful, he really doesn't deserve such a generous reward."
"Why do you give your money to the official?"
Wu Qing was stunned: "This Is it my official’s money?”
Yan Kuo said sincerely: “Of course it’s Shangguan’s money!”
Wu Qing was not pretending this time, he was really dumbfounded. .
Telling lies with your eyes open and paying bribes openly and openly, yet not feeling the slightest bit blushing or ashamed?
Wu Qing, who was new to officialdom, said he couldn’t understand it at all!
Wu Qing has long known that people are shameless, but he never thought that these people can be so shameless!
But since these people are even willing to give away money in order to die, why should I stop them?
Slowly holding the golden beans in his hands, Wu Qing had a smile on his face: "How about we take a look?"
Yan Kuo said emphatically: "Look! You must see it!"
"Wu Yanjian, look at how good this field is!"
"Although it is adjacent to mountains, it is also close to a river. , there is no shortage of water for irrigation.”
“It’s just that it’s a bit short of fertilizer because of the long cultivation time.”
“As long as the manure is cultivated, it will be a good harvest.”
What Yan Kuo said was not a lie.
The field that can be competed by many forces such as the Xiong family and the Yan family is definitely the best field in the entire Yan County.
Wu Qing ignored Yan Kuo's self-promotion, just picked up a piece of soil and said seriously: "This soil should be yellow soil, and the whole soil should be acidic."
"Bring up a bucket of soil!"
Two subordinate officials immediately stepped forward, picked up a Luoyang shovel and drilled down into the soil.
When the Luoyang shovel brought sections of deep soil to the surface, Wu Qing squatted on the ground and nodded slightly as he looked at the sampled soil: "The layering is quite obvious."
"There are also bright yellow and sticky soil. The heavy, lumpy inner layer should be yellow soil."
"Continue to dig deeper, and then send it back to Xianyang after being filled with labels!"
Looking at the actions of Wu Qing and others. , especially looking at the Luoyang shovel he had never seen before, Yan Kuo's eyes were a little confused.
Wouldn’t it be better to just farm like this for a while, and then do that again?
Why is it so troublesome!
But despite the trouble, the actions and words of Wu Qing and others revealed two words: professional!
Yan Kuo couldn’t understand, but Yan Kuo was shocked!
Watching the Luoyang shovel continuously spitting deep soil into the wooden box, and Wu Qing's subordinate officials marking the wooden box label, Yan Kuo involuntarily lowered his voice: "Wu Yanjian, what is this yellow soil? What do you mean?”
Wu Qing answered casually: “Yellow soil is a type of land.”
"The soil in Nanjun is mainly yellow soil, red soil, yellow brown soil, yellow brown soil, sandy black soil, etc."
"The soil here should be yellow soil."
Yan Kuoquan He couldn't understand but still nodded in agreement, and then asked: "How dare I ask Wu Yanjuan, is the soil in Yancheng good or bad?" Wu Qing asked in surprise: "Comparing the yield per mu in Yan County with the yield per mu elsewhere, Yan Prison Naturally, we know whether the yellow soil in Yan County is good or not."
"The officials of Yan County should know this best, why bother to ask me?"
Does Wu Qing understand agriculture?
Of course he understands.
But Wu Qing doesn’t know much more about agriculture than Yan Kuo.
Everything Wu Qing said just now was the words in the pamphlet written by Ying Chengyu, but Wu Qing recited it word for word.
So Wu Qing will never allow Yan Kuo to lead the direction of professional topics!
Yan Kuo said bitterly: "The yield per mu of Yan County is not inferior to that of other counties in Nanjun."
"But compared to other counties, it is far behind."
"When I first heard about Jin When the golden juice was used to treat excrement, the lower officials were happy, thinking that there was a way out for the people of Yan County. "
"I just don't know if this method of treating excrement with gold juice is suitable for Yan County."
Wu Qing shook his head: "The yellow soil is thin, cold and wet, so naturally it cannot compare with the fertile soil in other counties."
"I also noticed that the soil layer here is quite thin, and I think there is a risk of water and soil erosion."
"Treatment of manure with gold juice can improve the thinness and coldness of this field, but it is difficult to change the wetness. If there is water and soil erosion, If so, even the dung fields will be washed into the river, and the dung will be white!"
After waiting for a few seconds for a reply, Wu Qing looked at Yan Kuo and asked, "Is there any soil erosion here? "?"
Yan Kuo raised his hand and asked: "May I ask Wu Yanjian, what is the danger of soil erosion?"
"How to judge the danger of soil erosion?"
What is soil erosion?
I have never seen these four words in my whole life of reading!
Wu Qing explained: "Rainwater cannot melt into the ground, but will flow across the river, taking away sand and soil and fertility in the fields. This is the problem of soil erosion."
"As long as the soil here becomes thinner and the yield per mu decreases day by day, there is a risk of soil erosion."
"As an official of Yandi, Yan Prison should have some understanding of this."
Yan Kuo replied with shame: "Xiaguan is a jailer, not responsible for farming."
"Xiaguan will call his colleagues to come and answer Wu Yanju's questions."
Wu Qing threw away the soil in his hands, clapped his hands again and said, "Will Yan Yupu's colleagues go to the fields to work in person?"
"When it involves fields, naturally we have to ask the farmers directly."
"I saw a village in front of me. Let me go and have a look."
Hearing that Wu Qing was going to the farmer's house, Yan Kuo hurriedly said: "The farmers are poor and vulgar, and I might scare Wu Yanban." . ”
Although the officials in Yan County have already prepared the documents, this piece of land belonging to the Yan family apparently belongs to hundreds of farmers.
But who can guarantee that these hundreds of farmers can hide the truth from Wu Qing?
If Wu Qing were to ask in person, the secret would inevitably be revealed!
Wu Qing shook his head: "It is true that farmers are vulgar, but we, the research envoys, are meant to deal with farmers."
"No matter how vulgar the farmers are, they should understand that I am here to help them improve their acres. "
"Who can have trouble with food?"
"What's more important is that I don't just want to ask one farmer, but all the farmers. How to summon them!"
Yan Kuo said without hesitation: "Then the official will summon all the farmers here!"
Wu Qing looked at Yan Kuo in surprise, with a little more vigilance in his eyes: "I would rather have all the farmers come to see me on their own initiative than let me go to see the farmers."
"You Yan County Are you trying to deceive me?”
“I have come here with the order of Lord Chang’an, so I must not do any dereliction of duty!”
Yan Kuo said in a low voice: “I am here. You can guarantee it with your life that Yan County will never deceive Wu Yanjing in the slightest."
"But it is really inconvenient to enter a farmer's home."
"I wonder if Wu Yanpan would like to make it easier?"
"You drink wine and hug Mei Ji, and I will collect all the information you need and come back, and let all the farmers come to be questioned by Wu Yanpan. Ask, Wu Yanjian doesn’t need to do anything.”
“Afterwards, I, Mr. Yan, would like to thank you very much!”
As he spoke, Yan Kuo stuffed five more gold coins into Wu Qing’s hand. beans.
But this time, Wu Qing waved his hand to avoid Jin Douzi, and even took a step back and said with a serious face: "I have just entered the court, and my foundation is not enough!"
"If you continue to delay Lord Chang'an's plan in studying and judging such a major matter, I will not be able to compensate you even if I have ten heads!"
"These two pieces of gold can exchange for my silence on this matter. I can't accept the rest."
"Just say goodbye!"
Seeing Wu Qing turn around and leave, Yan Kuo quickly stopped Wu Qing: "Wu Yanpan! Wu Yanjian! "
"You are... Oh! Your Majesty also has good intentions!"
"Since Wu Yanpan is not afraid of hard work, then the lower officials will not stop Wu Yanpan."
"Wu Yanpan is free to inspect and inquire at will."
Wu Qing frowned and looked hesitantly Asked Yan Kuo: "There won't be any trouble later, right?"
"By the way, I don't have to make a judgment in Yan County, and there is no conflict between you and me."
< br>"If there is still any trouble, Yan Yubu can speak up and Wu will turn around and leave!"
Yan Kuo said bitterly: "There is really no trouble!"
Pushing the golden beans back into Wu Qing's hand, Yan Kuo said sadly: "Wu Yanjian, please give the people of Yan County a way to survive!"
After Wu Qing pondered for a long time, he finally accepted the golden beans and said in a slightly difficult voice: "Then I will take a closer look."
Yan Kuo whispered excitedly: "Wu Yanjian , please come ahead!”
“Xiaguan will lead you!”
