Chapter 537 9 Heavy Purple 2
Recently, it started to rain heavily in Zhending. Thinking of the plot, Changran took people back to the farm, while his mother stayed to take care of his younger brother.
My grandmother was kindhearted and concerned about the tenants around her, so she wanted to go and check it out herself. Although my grandmother was in good health now under my care, she was old after all.
Chang Ran was worried, so he took over the matter and sent a puppet couple to handle it. He also specifically asked them to take care of Tanjiazhuang. Not to mention that Tanjiazhuang was loyal and righteous, just thinking about the fact that they pleaded for Dou Zhao, he would not let it go.
In order to reassure his grandmother, he also went to the scene. However, he only helped out near his own farm and did not meet Wu Shan.
Although they didn't meet by chance, Chang Ran asked the puppet to help Wu Shan from getting lung disease. The other party was doing good things, so it would be hard to bear if he got sick.
Thinking of the plot, he sent another little puppet to Futing to temporarily stay with Song Mo, allowing him to avoid being injured and unconscious during the disaster relief.
Now the two of them have no intersection, and if Song Mo faints, what will happen, I am not sure. In the first life of the play, I don’t know what the situation is, so I will avoid it if I can.
As for Ding Wei of the Maritime Customs, he had solved the problem a few years ago when he sent people to Laifuting to build ships.
After Duke Dingguo's efforts to pacify the sea were successful, the puppet changed his appearance and came to Futing to build a merchant ship. Of course, his purpose was not to do business, as long as he could make a profit. He mainly wanted to exchange for what he needed.
After the potatoes were brought back, the puppets bought wasteland in various places and recruited local people to plant them. They then made various foods to sell.
Seeing the profit, the people naturally thought of various ways to grow potatoes themselves. The scale continued to expand, and now potatoes have become a common food for the people.
In recent years, disasters have occurred frequently in various places. With potatoes, which are easy to grow and have high yields, the problem of food shortage in various places has been alleviated a lot.
As the first stop, Futing naturally planted a larger amount of potatoes. Potatoes also played a big role in this disaster relief.
The court saw that the disaster situation in various places was not as serious as imagined. After investigation, it was found that potatoes played a role. After reporting, the emperor ordered the Yingtiansi to help promote it.
Soon, good news came from the capital that his younger brother had passed the exam and ranked tenth in the second class. The old lady was also very happy and specially held a banquet in the manor.
As a distant relative of the old lady, Ji Yong was invited to come to the farm as well.
After the reunion, Ji Yong went to Futing to take up a post, while his younger brother passed the examination for the title of Shujishi and entered the Hanlin Academy.
They are already quite old, so it's time to put marriage on the agenda.
The old lady invited Ji Yong to meet Chang Ran. However, it seemed that neither of them was interested.
Ji Yong is still immature. Chang Ran feels that with Ji Yong's behavior and ambition, there will definitely be a lot of trouble around him.
After the banquet, Changran and Zhangru came to the capital together.
After the disaster relief work in Futing was completed, Duke Dingguo was summoned back to the capital. This time he was not escorted but returned to the capital on his own.
The Duke of England and the Emperor finally met. They both thought of the oath they had made when they were young, and were filled with emotion.
The emperor punished Duke Dingguo lightly for disobeying the emperor's order and secretly confiscating his property to provide disaster relief. However, Duke Dingguo was temporarily kept in the capital.
Recently, Li Zhen has repeatedly invaded our borders. Wu Ge Lao and other cabinet ministers strongly advocated fighting. The emperor sent Duke Dingguo to fight. With Duke Dingguo's ability, he will surely be able to win the battle quickly. Moreover, with potatoes, the pressure on food and grass will be greatly reduced.
Song Mo did not go with them this time, as he was appointed by the emperor as the co-director of the Jinwu Guard. Ji Yong was transferred to Liaodong.
Soon news of a great victory came from Liaodong. Duke Dingguo's prestige was even greater than before. It was unknown whether Duke Dingguo would become so powerful that he would threaten the emperor in the future.
