Chapter 159 Step by step compromise Compromise inspection is just a military attache of the ninth grade, the same as the general level, and the armed forces of the hundred personnel in charge of the inspection department, if it was said that a year ago, Quan Xu would still attach great importance to this position, it should be said that he was very happy, maybe he would take office.However, now he really can't look at it.As long as you enter the system, there will be some advantages, or care.Of course, it's more about constraints, elbows.Quan Xu actually prefers to believe that Lu Xiangsheng saw Quan Xu's rapid development and became vigilant.Quan Xu actually thought too much, at this time Lu Xiangsheng's confidence in the Ming Dynasty was very high, if Quan Xu told him that the Ming Dynasty would be over in fifteen years, he would definitely think that Quan Xu had drunk too much, and he would not believe it at all.This official position, for Quan Xu, is not only not a good thing, but a constraint.His relationship with the gentry of the Daimyo Mansion was not good in the first place, especially with the establishment of the Quan's Bank, which turned the contradiction from the dark to the light.The two sides only had to tear their faces.The reason why Quan Xu is not moved now is not how powerful Quan Xu is, but that Lu Xiangsheng has not yet reached his term.However, once Quan Xu is in charge of this inspection, then according to inertia, not only the vicinity of Quan Xu's industry, but also the entire South Nineteen Township, the county seat of Daming, is the jurisdiction of Quan Xu's inspection, and local security and other problems will give Quan Xu a headache.You must know that these gentry have a huge influence in the local area, and if it weren't for the disaster victims, Quan Xu wouldn't even be able to find tenants.Quan Xu smiled bitterly: "Lord Lu, although Xu is not talented, he also has the desire to learn, especially after reading Lord Lu's readers' notes, it is even more enlightened, at the latest next year, Xu is preparing for the county exam!"
”When Lu Xiangsheng heard this, he nodded slightly, instead of being angry, he thought that Quan Xu was self-motivated, which was a great thing, and he needed encouragement: "Yes, you have this thought, of course it is excellent, but the inspection department of Quanjia Town is ......"
"One hundred soldiers of the inspection department, according to each person, give them ten stone of rice grain, about one thousand stones, this money and grain, Xu will bear it with all his might!"
”Lu Xiangsheng nodded.The purpose of his proposal to establish the Inspection Department is to maintain law and order.When Quan Xu did not arrive outside the city of Daimyo, this was a wasteland, although those fields and there were no villages around, but in just one year, the population here has increased by several thousand, so it can no longer be ignored.At this moment, Chen Ying, who had been following Quan Xu, lowered his voice: "Quan Ye, you ......"
Quan Xu smiled lightly: "It's just that I don't want to be a chess piece, there are some things, as long as I want to do it, whether it is good or not, even if it is a loss of money, I will do it if I want to!"
”It's like Quan Xu's blood transfusion to Dongjiang Town, there is no benefit at all, just out of disgust Hou Jin's thoughts.Dongjiang Town is on the waist of Houjin, as long as Houjin moves, Mao Wenlong can take the Dongjiang army to copy Houjin's lair.Lu Xiangsheng wants Quan Xu to serve as this inspector, the purpose is to grasp certain local rights, don't look at the inspector is just a nine-rank official, but he is in control of the armed forces.According to the regulations of the imperial court, a county is divided into three to five inspection areas.The governor of each district is the inspector, although he is a subordinate of the county.However, the magistrate only has the right to manage the inspection, but not the power to mobilize.That is to say, Quan Xu is now the chief of grain, and he already has the power to draw up rules, compile atlases, declare disasters, report tax evasion, and urge grain differences, etc., which is equivalent to the director of the civil affairs, taxation, and household registration offices of townships and towns in later generations.The key is that the magistrate can command the officials and strong men in the county, but cannot command the soldiers of the inspection department.Chen Ying smiled bitterly and said, "Master, are you not afraid of angering Lord Lu if you refuse like this?"
”"Don't be afraid!"
Quan Xu smiled: "He is an official, so he will not try to be quick for a while, he needs a balanced way, sit firmly in his daimyo's prefect, the local gentry are on the same page as him, he also needs to have political achievements, this political achievement, can only be completed by me in the lead, not only will he not move me, but will send a puppet over to act as a nominal inspection, the real power of this inspection department is still in my hands!"
”Quan Xu is in charge of the food and personnel of the inspection, no matter who is the inspector, the family of the Quan family will not listen to him.When Chen Ying heard this, he was still a little puzzled."
One step to compromise, one step to one!"
Quan Xu smiled bitterly: "This is like a moth pulling an official into the water, just at the beginning, it was just an ordinary banquet, and slowly there was an exchange of interests, at first I didn't refuse, but over time, it was impossible to refuse!"
”Quan Xu doesn't want to be a fat pig in Lu Xiangsheng's eyes, cooperation is cooperation, but you can't blindly ask for it.is the same as Shengmien and Doumi's hatred, when Quanxu should refuse, he must refuse.The Quanxu compound has not changed much, most of the houses in the courtyard are still prefabricated houses, but on both sides of the road, there are more flowers and plants, green plants, and the road surface has been paved with a green brick road from the original dirt road.At this time, the corn cobs that have been broken from the fields are placed on the blue brick pavement, neatly arranged, and it is magnificent.Quan Xu explained to Lu Xiangsheng and others: "Lord Lu, this corn, we look dry, in fact, there is still a lot of water in it, and it is far more complicated to deal with than wheat and soybeans. ”Quan Xu casually picked up a corn cob and rubbed off the corn kernels on it with his hands, revealing the corn cob inside, which obviously carried a lot of moisture.Lu Xiangsheng suddenly remembered the weight he had just weighed: "So, the yield of this corn has a lot of moisture?"
”Quan Xu nodded and said: "Yes, if it is all dried, the yield per mu will be eight hundred to one thousand two hundred catties!"
”Lu Xiangsheng breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Less than half of it went, it's okay, it's okay!"
”"Still, these corn cobs!"
Quan Xu suddenly thought that in the literature of later generations, in the three-year special period, people used corn cobs to grind into flour and mix with miscellaneous grains.He pointed to the corn cob and said: "If there is a famine and the people have nothing to eat, eating this, although the taste is not good, is better than eating bark and grass roots!"
”Hearing this, the thoughts of the officials of the Daimyo Mansion were lively, corn was really a good thing."
The point is that this kind of thing can be used as medicine!
The medicine has the effect of strengthening the spleen and promoting dampness, and can treat unfavorable urination, edema, athlete's foot, diarrhea and other diseases. ”Quan Xu thought about it for a while, and introduced: "The corn cob can be used as feed, and it can be fed to pigs, horses, and cows......
The corn cob obtained is about 500 to 800 catties, plus the corn stalk, you can get about 8,000 catties to 15,000 catties (dry and wet are different), that is to say, the corn stalk and corn cob of one acre of land, without the need for additional food, can raise a strong cow and a calf!
”Lu Xiangsheng said in surprise: "So much?
”"Hearing is false, seeing is believing!"
Quan Xu pointed to Yongdao and said, "Please move and observe Quan's cowshed!"
”Quan Xu knew that these local officials wanted to enjoy Quan Xu's feast, but Quan Xu didn't want them to live comfortably.From the Quanxu compound to the pine forest farm, the first to come into view are the chickens running all over the ground, and these chickens are in the thousands, surrounded by a kind of net.Lu Xiangsheng asked curiously: "You chickens are good-looking!"
”These chickens are particularly fat, and their feathers are bright and shiny, and they are particularly spiritual.There is no way not to be fat, these chickens eat maggots every day, they are all high protein, can they not be fat?
There are a large number of flies and maggots as feed, Quan Xu raised thousands of chickens and ducks and did not have much difficulty, if there is no such thing, it will be fatal, thousands of mouths, I don't know how much food to eat every day, now people can't eat, where is the surplus grain to feed chickens and ducks?
In fact, at this time, the farmers also learned the same thing, but since Quanxu was not allowed to raise livestock and poultry in the Quanxu compound, he didn't want to make the whole compound stink.However, this is not difficult for those who have divided the fields, they have built small chicken coops in their fields, prepared large vats to ferment chicken and duck feces in vats, and then led flies to the vats to lay eggs, and then they can obtain a large number of flies to feed chickens and ducks.In this way, you can pick up an egg every three or five to boil the pot and add vegetables, and everyone can improve their lives, as for killing chickens and ducks......
Of course, you can't kill it, and you still rely on the manure of chickens and ducks to use it as fertilizer.Of course, this method of raising chickens and ducks can't be told to Lu Xiangsheng, if they know, maybe, these officials will have no appetite for chicken.Along the rows of chicken coops, to the cowshed, more than a dozen farmers are using guillotines to cut the corn stalks into sections, the corn cob is actually not much, just for demonstration.The corn stalks and cobs are broken into pieces, washed in water, and placed in the troughs of cattle and horses.Cows and horses eat very happily, as if they are eating rare delicacy.Quan Xu proudly introduced: "This year, 30,000 acres of corn have been planted, and almost 20,000 or 30,000 cattle can be raised. ”Lu Xiangsheng asked with concern: "Is this corn seed expensive?"
”"This?"
Quan Xu smiled bitterly: "This corn, sweet potato, and potatoes are all native to the Americas, that is, in the east of us about thirty or forty thousand miles, Yi Buddha Liangji people brought over, when I bought it, it must be expensive, almost comparable to gold, and the harvested seeds, I sell two taels ...... to the outside world" Without waiting for Quan Xu to finish speaking, Lu Xiangsheng groaned: "Two taels of silver per bucket, no more!"
”Quan Xu opened his mouth, he originally wanted to say that two taels of silver per stone, slightly higher than rice and wheat.In fact, this is already very expensive.However, Lu Xiangsheng felt that this corn was a kind of sacred object specially prepared for raising cattle and horses, even if it was two taels of silver per bucket, two acres could be planted, enough for a people's family to feed two or three cows.PS: The update is a little late, please understand,.
