When Governor Hao and Magistrate Tu came to Xipo Village, Luo Yong was leading a few children to braise persimmons in his grocery store.
They did not have a persimmon tree at home.
Recently, they saw that other people's persimmons were ripe, so they exchanged grain for some.
Come back to eat.
"Master, Governor Hao and Magistrate Tu are here.
I just saw them coming in from the village entrance."
Several of Luo Yong's disciples were changing straw for the pig pen that day.
As soon as they saw these two people coming, some people immediately ran to Luo Yong.
The family yard came to report to Luo Yong.
"Hey, here we come."
Luo Yong quickly got off the kang, put on his dusty linen shoes, and pulled up his heels as he walked.
When he reached the entrance of the courtyard, Governor Hao and Magistrate Tu also arrived. .
Luo Yong bowed to the two men, and Governor Hao told him not to be polite, and then they followed Luo Yong to the hall.
After taking his seat, Governor Hao first conveyed His Majesty the Emperor's verbal praise to Luo Yong, and then said that the saint took pity on his plight and gave him five hectares of fertile land, telling him to farm the land well in the future and raise the children in his family.
Luo Yong saluted and thanked him.
After the business was done, Luo Yong left the two of them to have dinner at his home, but neither of them responded.
He chatted a few words about swallows flying on the fire bed, dirt and dung, and then stood up to leave.
When he passed the Luo family's pig pen, It actually stayed for a while.
The Luo family's half-sized pigs are all round and round, which is very pleasing to the eye.
The pig pen has just been cleaned and is not very dirty and smelly.
"The method of raising pigs seems to be really good."
Governor Hao praised the growth of the pigs after carefully observing them.
"Besides raising pigs, is there anything else that needs to be paid attention to in this method of raising pigs?"
Magistrate Tu asked Luo Yong.
"It's not very particular.
It's just that the pig food must be cooked before feeding, and the wild vegetables and wheat bran, bean dregs and other things must be cooked together."
Luo Yong replied.
"Very good."
After hearing this, Governor Hao nodded and praised again.
After these two left, two other minor officials stayed behind to measure the land for Luo Yong when Zou Lizheng came over.
One hectare of land is one hundred acres, and these five hectares of land are only five hundred acres.
Luo Yong never dreamed that one day he would become a big landowner with five hundred acres of fertile land.
Although the land was so vast at this time, The population is sparse, and ordinary people have hundreds of acres of land at home.
In the early Tang Dynasty, the land equalization system was implemented.
Each small household was granted one hundred acres of land, of which 20 acres were Yongye fields and 80 acres were Koufu fields.
Yongye fields could be inherited by descendants, but Koufu fields were different.
After the owner passed away, the fields would be Taken back by the government.
The 500 acres Luo Yong got this time were all Yongye fields, and they were assets that could benefit his descendants.
However, although it is 500 acres of good farmland, the number of people here has basically increased in the past two years, and there is no excess good land that can be allocated to him.
In the end, except for a few dozen acres, which were relatively good, The rest of the farmland is sloping land, and Luo Yong has to clear up wasteland himself.
After the fields were laid out and it was getting late, Luo Yong left Zou Lizheng and the two county officials to have dinner.
A pot of braised chicken, a pot of corn porridge, a pot of pancakes, and a few side dishes left several people with mouths full of oil and contentment.
After dinner, Luo Yong stayed with the three of them for the night, but all three refused.
It was the autumn harvest season, and no one, whether it was Zou Lizheng or the county officials, had time to spare.
They had to go back to sleep tonight, and they would have to continue their work tomorrow. .

"Zou Lizheng, don't leave now.
Recently, people from Xiaohe Village are pushing pig dung to exchange for bean dregs every day.
Let me help you see if there is anyone who hasn't gone back at this time."
When one of Luo Yong's disciples saw Zou Lizheng saying that he wanted to go back to Xiaohe Village alone, he quickly said that it was getting dark now.
Zou Lizheng was so old, who could safely ask him to go back so far at night alone.
"Zou Lizheng, it's okay for you to stay here for one night.
I and I will leave first.
There are still many official duties in the county."
The other two said they were about to leave.
Luo Yong and others sent the two of them to the entrance of the village, and told them to be careful on the road.
After all, it was such a long road, and it was late at night.
The road was very deserted and there were no pedestrians on the road.
"Why do you need to worry?
I and I have traveled further on this road than you."
The two clerks raised their arms and waved as they spoke, then headed towards the county seat together.
It is the harvest season now, and the county officials have to go to the countryside to collect taxes and fees.
At this season of the year, these people don't get up early and work hard at night, wishing they could break their legs.
In their poor place, there are not so many in the county government.
The horse-drawn carriages and ox-carts are available, and walking in the dark at night is too common for small officials like them.
"Lin Er, do you think we should also get two Yaner Fei to ride here?"
The two brothers walked side by side on the winding dirt road.
There were overgrown weeds on both sides of the road.
Occasionally they would pass by a farmland.
At this moment It was dark, and I couldn't see clearly what was being planted in the fields.
I could only smell it vaguely.
"It's not cheap for swallows to fly."
The other person had his hands on his sleeves and his neck curled up.
The temperature here began to drop in September, and after today, there would probably be frost at night.
"Walking just on two legs is a disaster."
The man just said.
"Isn't it just suffering?"
I walked for several hours and ran around all day long.
How could I not suffer?
At least the two of them could go back together, but Zou Lizheng didn't even have a companion, and they didn't dare to ask him to walk alone at night.
In the end, two of Luo Yong's disciples drove him back in a donkey cart.
After sending these two groups away, it was already dark.
Luo Yong returned to his yard and saw that there were still oil lamps burning in the grocery store.
"Brother, the persimmons haven't been stewed yet."
Siniang Wulang and the others were still waiting there.
"But it's all put in."
Luo Yong smiled and entered his grocery store.
"It's all set up."
Several children moved aside to make a place for him.
"Let me take a look."
Luo looked into the jar with his probe, and saw that half a jar of round orange persimmons were neatly arranged inside, so he said, "Let's light the fire and stew them."

The brothers and sisters carried the jar to the kitchen, first took a handful of hay and lit it, then threw the burning straw into the jar, quickly covered the mouth of the jar with a piece of oil paper, and quickly used the piece of oil paper to The string was tied tightly to the mouth of the cylinder, and a few pieces of old cloth were covered with it.
In this way, even if the persimmons are stewed, the mouth of the jar is sealed, and there is no fresh air in the jar.
The fire is quickly extinguished, leaving most of the jar with thick smoke.
Luo Yong uses this thick smoke to ripen it.
Persimmons, most villagers in Xipo Village ripen persimmons in this way, and they also use turbid wine to ripen persimmons, but after all, not every household has wine.
The Luo family does have wine, because they are making fermented bean curd, and their family has never run out of turbid wine.
The reason for doing this is just to add something new to these children.
Luo Yong is quite familiar with hatching persimmons.
In the past, when Grandma Luo was here, she would buy a lot of new persimmons every year and put them at home.
If they were stored well, they could last half the winter.
When she wanted to eat, she would just take them.
A few come out to hatch.
There were a lot of fruits at that time, and bananas and apples were very common.
Grandma Luo was reluctant to put bananas or apples directly in.
Before hatching the persimmons, she would go to the fruit stall and buy a few bananas.
Grandma and grandson ate the bananas first. , leave the banana peels, pack them in plastic bags, put them together with the persimmons, put them in a random paper box, and throw them under the bed.
Take them out after ten days, and the persimmons will be ripe and soft.
Now in the seventh century, bananas and apples are not even used to hatch persimmons.
The few small ones at home don't even know what they taste like.
Apples are probably still being grown in the royal gardens at this moment, and their name seems to be Pinpo fruit.
As for bananas, I think they are available in the south, but the transportation is really inconvenient at this time.
From here to Chang'an, it's just a short walk.
It only takes a month to travel from Chang'an City to the southern tropics, and I don't know how long it will take.
If the regenerated bananas are cut and shipped to them, they will be spoiled.
"Sanlang, what do you think we can use to grow that 500 acres of land?"
Compared to this jar of persimmons, Erniang was obviously more concerned about the 500 acres of land she had newly acquired.
As the daughter of a native farmer, She also values land very seriously, and there was a difficult time before when she had to sell land for food, which made her even more obsessed with land.
"Yeah, what do you think would be good to plant?"
Luo Yong said with a smile.
Speaking of these five hundred acres of land, Luo Yong thought of what Governor Hao said before.
The Holy Spirit gave him five hectares of fertile land and asked him to cultivate it well.
Is there any hidden meaning in this statement?
Perhaps, setting up a branch in Chang'an City should be postponed for a while.
In Chang'an City, Du Qilang has not returned yet, and the peony cushion Luo used has not yet become popular in the city.
Yan Erfei, who was previously brought from Lishi County, has become more and more involved in the lives of Chang'an people as time goes by.
This morning, the morning bell has passed, but the morning drum has not stopped.
It’s time for all the shops in the city to open their doors and lift restrictions.
In addition to the traders who get up early to do business, there is another group of people in this city who also have to get up particularly early, and that is the officials who go to court.
In order to make it easier for them to go to court, many officials choose to live close to Taiji Hall.
Correspondingly, the housing prices in that area are naturally very high.
Those whose official positions are not high enough, their salary is not high, and their family background is not strong enough, I had no choice but to go farther away.
This distance would naturally make the journey longer when I went to court in the morning.
"What a coincidence, Taishi Lu."
In the early morning, the sky is still dark, and the breath of autumn is already in the air.
At an alley far away from the palace gate, a Yanerfei turned out lightly.

The cyclist saw someone wearing official uniforms riding a Yanerfei on the other side, and took a closer look under the light.
Look, I found it was an old acquaintance.
"It's from Chen Nei."
The other party also greeted him.
The two chatted for a few words without stopping, and rode Yanerfei to the Tai Chi Hall to attend court together.
The busy day began again.
