Lu Lin greeted a few servants and visited several villages in Sha County. Many farmers in Sha County have already repaired kangs, but there are still some people who are too poor to afford repairs. able to consume.
Seeing this situation, Lu Lin donated money to build kangs for some poor people who could not afford them.
Although some people think that Lu Lin did this to win over the hearts of the people, no matter what, Lu Lin's actions still made many villagers feel very grateful to Lu Lin.
Seeing that Lu Lin was so righteous, the patrol team assigned a group of people to help Lu Lin, which saved Lu Lin a lot of energy.
Seeing that Lu Lin was so considerate of the villagers, Ji Yunan couldn't help but look at Lu Lin with admiration, "My lord, I didn't expect you to be quite righteous!"
Lu Lin looked at Ji Yun'an, smiled, and said earnestly: "Of course, since I am a parent official, I have to think about the common people, Young Master Ji! You come from an extraordinary background, you should have a great future, and you should put your mind to it Use it on the right path.”
Ji Yun'an blushed, and thought to himself: He climbed the corner of the wall only once, and it seems that he can't wash away the stigma of climbing the corner of the wall. It's too late to regret it!
Ji Yun'an took a deep breath and said, "A few uncles in the army, let me thank you for your kindness in presenting the knee pads."
Lu Lin waved his hand and said, "This is nothing."
One hundred copies of knee pads is too little, but it also relieves the urgent need. Lu Lin plans to add another two hundred copies in the near future. Knee pads, that is, use some cotton and coarse cloth, are not worth much, and if they can gain the favor of the patrol battalion, that would be the best.
Ji Yun'an said seriously: "It's nothing to my lord, but it's also a great help to my uncle in the barracks."
Sha County is vast and sparsely populated, so there is still a lot of wasteland here. Lu Lin circled a piece of wasteland near the county government office. I remembered that Chen Xiaomi's name Lu Lin circled the wasteland. Occasionally, the land of a few villagers was enclosed. Let Lu Lin spend some money to get rid of it, but nothing happened. Even those villagers who had their fields taken away felt lucky that the wasteland could be exchanged for money.
Ji Yun'an turned to Chen Maimai and said, "What are you doing with so many places in the county magistrate's circle?"
Ji Yun'an felt that he was really going back more and more, and wanted to know what, he could only use a pair of words.
Chen Maimai raised his head and gave Ji Yunan a stupid look, "Of course the enclosure is here to grow delicious food."
Ji Yunan frowned and said, "Grow something delicious? Who will grow it!"
Chen Maimai puffed his cheeks and said, "Please ask someone to plant it."
Ji Yun'an: "..." The population of Sha County here is not large, how can anyone be willing to help with farming!
Chen Mai gave Ji Yunan one, and you said with silly eyes: "Of course I hired someone to plant it, as long as it costs money."
Ji Yunan: "..."
Lu Lin walked into the backyard, where the father and son of the Qin family were assembling the various parts of Quyuanli according to Lu Lin's instructions.
"My lord, it's already installed. Let's take a look and see if it's right." Qin Yi said eagerly.
Lu Lin looked at the assembled Qu Yuanli, and said, "Almost, that's it, how many pieces have you made?"
"Four pieces, but the rest have not been assembled yet. If they are all assembled, there should be ten pieces." Qin Yi said Lu Lin nodded and said, "Okay, take a few mules out tomorrow. Turn over the ground."
Lu Lin thought to himself: It's time to take the animals for a walk at home. It takes a lot of fodder to feed these animals.
Although no crops are planted in this winter, it is still necessary to plow the ground. If the foundation is not laid this winter, the crops planted in this spring will not grow well.
The next day, Chen Maimai followed Qin Lang and four other farmers who paid for them to lead their mules to the field, and Ji Yunan followed Chen Maimai to the field to watch the excitement.
Ji Yun'an watched a few fools plow the ground under Qin Lang's guidance, and his eyes widened in surprise.
"What is this?" Ji Yun'an looked at Chen Mai with some excitement and asked.
Ji Yun'an looked at the ground that was easily plowed and thought: This thing is amazing, with this thing, this kind of land will be much easier. However, this thing looks quite complicated, and I'm afraid it's not cheap.
Chen Mai gave Ji Yunan a white look, and said with some disdain: "You don't even know what this is, it's a trolley! Look at this, you can push it with your hands."
Ji Yunan nodded his head receptively, and said, "So it's a trolley!"
Before Ji Yunan, he had been watching Lu Lin busy in the county government office. At first, Ji Yunan thought that Lu Lin was tossing something so tempting and depraved as a rocking chair. Unexpectedly, Lu Lin actually tossed a trolley that benefited the country and the people. , Ji Yunan couldn't help but look at Lu Lin with admiration.
With this thing, farming can be much easier.
Ji Yun'an thought to himself: There are still a lot of vacant wasteland in Shaxian County. With this tool, wouldn't it be possible to reclaim more wasteland.
Several farmers were amazed by the functions of Quyuanli, and attracted many farmers to watch.
With Qin Lang's consent, several farmers who watched the excitement went up to try it out. The effectiveness of the "trolley" amazed many farmers.
Over time, the reputation of "Trolley" quickly spread in Sha County.
The minds of farmers are still very flexible. Many farmers quickly thought of the carpenters and blacksmiths who were invited to the county government before, and wondered whether they could hire someone to make such a farm tool. It is a pity that the parts of this "trolley" are made by several carpenters and blacksmiths, but this combination is not done by a few people, it is a combination of several people. I was very at a loss for the "trolley", and I really didn't understand how the parts I made would turn into such farm tools.
After clearing the land, Lu Lin called the "trolley" back.
When Lu Lin woke up from a nap, he found that the reputation of "trolley" had already spread. Lu Lin didn't quite understand how Qu Yuanli became a "trolley" all at once, and everyone was still convinced by the name. At this point, Lu Lin didn't change his name, he simply made a mistake.
That night, Lu Lin welcomed people from the patrol battalion.
When Lu Lin saw the people coming, he thought to himself: Sometimes the news here spreads very quickly.
"Want to report to me?" Lu Lin asked.
Liu Yun nodded, and said: "Yes! County Magistrate Lu, you have researched such a farm tool as soon as you came here. The merits are in the community, so it should be reported to the king. This farm tool is so useful, no accidents, you should be able to get it Rewards, even promotions."
Lu Lin raised his eyebrows and said, "I'm just a small county magistrate."
Lu Lin thought to himself: He is just a seventh-rank sesame official, and he can be drowned by a wave. If this matter is reported, the credit may not be his, and maybe he will cause a commotion.
Ji Chengkang probably guessed what Lu Lin was thinking, smiled, and said, "If County Magistrate Lu is willing, I can report it on his behalf."
Lu Lin's report needs to be reviewed layer by layer. Ji Chengkang has a relatively large official, and the Ji family also has other larger officials in the court. It is relatively simple to report.
Lu Lin nodded and said, "If that's the case, that would be great. Let's say that this thing was developed by the Patrol Battalion."
Ji Chengkang frowned, and hurriedly said: "If you don't get paid for your merits, what should you do?"
As long as this matter is reported by members of their Ji family, even if it is controlled by Lu Lintong, they can also get certain benefits from it. It is also a great favor for Lu Lin to bring a patrol battalion in this world.
Lu Lin smiled and said: "This is the first time this official enters the officialdom, this credit is too great, I am afraid of being envied by others, and this official is afraid. If Mr. Lu is afraid of taking risks, he will say that you have researched it, and I will send it to the patrol camp. Somebody help."
Ji Chengkang smiled helplessly, and thought to himself: Lu Lin is so timid, and he is still in the officialdom, but thinking about it, Lu Lin's worries are reasonable, so he accepted Lu Lin's favor. Lu Lin nodded and said, "If If so, that would be even better.”
Ji Chengkang asked Lu Lin for a trolley and sent it to Kyoto as soon as possible.
Lu Lin did not give the cart directly, but gave two parts of the trolley and taught Ji Chengkang how to assemble it.
Ji Chengkang admired Lu Lin's carefulness. It is much more convenient to transport the parts than transporting the car. Moreover, even if someone snatched it on the road, the person who robbed it would not know what the thing was for.
Lu Lin discussed the details with Ji Chengkang and Liu Yun, and they talked for more than an hour. Liu Yun came out of the county government office, and couldn't help but look at Lu Lin with admiration.
"General, this magistrate Lu is not easy!"
Ji Chengkang nodded, and said: "Before, I found out what dolls and toys he made in Lin Town. They were all sensational things. I didn't expect that he could make such good things. If this trolley can If it is popularized, the farmers will be blessed."
Liu Yun nodded and said, "That's right, General, it's not too late. It's best to send this thing to the capital as soon as possible."
Ji Chengkang nodded and said, "Not bad."
Liu Yun held his chin, and a strange light flashed in his eyes. The matter of the trolley was handled well, which is a great political achievement. It should also be of great benefit to Ji Chengkang's future promotion.
After Ji Chengkang left, Lu Lin thought about this thing. After it was delivered to the capital, it would be flooded. Before that, he could make more handcarts. Within a year, if he needs something, several people have to give him priority to work, and what he makes cannot be passed on to the outside world.
After handing over the trolley matter to Ji Chengkang, Lu Lin forgot about it.
Lu Lin asked the blacksmith in the village to make a mandarin duck hot pot. In winter, several people gathered around to eat hot pot.
Chen Mai stretched out his chopsticks, picked up a quail egg from the pot, lifted it into the air, and dropped it into the pot.
Chen Xiaomai persevered and pinched again, and the quail eggs fell into the pot again, and the cycle repeated several times.
After a few unsuccessful attempts, Chen Maimai seemed to have gotten into a fight with the quail eggs, her eyes were red and she looked menacing.
Ji Yun'an fished out the quail eggs and gave them to Chen Maimai, who smiled contentedly.
Yuan Bao was holding a bowl, sucking and sucking on the noodles.
Yuan Bao doesn't like noodles in clear soup. However, noodles dipped in spicy oil are Yuan Bao's favourite. Yuan Bao can eat a small bowl by himself.
Lu Lin picked up some potato chips to eat, and Chen Xiaomi picked up some pieces of tofu.
No matter how many times he eats hot pot, Ji Yunan is always amazed by this novel food. On the one hand, Ji Yunan thinks that Lu Lin really knows how to enjoy it, and is too depraved. On the other hand, he is addicted to the deliciousness of hot pot and cannot extricate himself.
Lu Lin shrank his hands and feet, and said, "The winter here is much colder than that in Lin Town!"
Looking at Lu Lin's appearance, Ji Yun'an felt a little disdainful in his heart, Ji Yun'an secretly said: "Man, don't be afraid of the severe cold, not to mention that this room is really not cold. Ji Yun'an, who admired Lu Lin because of the "trolley", has an impression of Lu Lin." Dropped some more.
Lu Lin regarded Ji Yunan as a child with secondary illness, and didn't care much about Ji Yunan's impression of him.
