Chapter 842: The Great Mother and the Meaningful Discovery
Chapter 842: Great Mother and Far-Term Discovery
Since the "grandfather of agriculture" Tao Zongwang successfully cultivated Muhe and solved the food problem of the residents of Luliu Town in one fell swoop, Wang Dafu has never been concerned about the agricultural construction of Luliu Town, and has completely left this problem to Tao Zongwang to take responsibility.
Tao Zongwang did not disappoint Wang Dafu. With his careful care and research, Muhe not only maintained an extremely high yield, but also developed to be able to cook twice a year and double the yield.
Under this circumstance, the grain output of Luliu Town has reached a terrifying number. Wang Dafu once proudly patted his chest to his friends in private: "As long as I want, I can use grain to bury the entire Bolan City alive!"
The embarrassing memories brought by the "natural disaster" once had completely disappeared from Wang Dafu's mind. It is no exaggeration to say that Luliu Town will no longer have the problem of insufficient food in the current Luliu Town. Even if the population of Luliu Town is increasing tenfold, there will be no problem!
But Wang Dafu forgot one thing, that is human desire! When a person is hungry and cold and faces a crisis of survival, his only wish is to have a full meal. He will never care whether the meal is rice or noodles, buns or steamed buns; but when a person has no worries about food and clothing, his requirements will increase. Southerners are generally fond of rice, while northerners prefer pasta... Everyone has a different taste, which is a human nature and a kind of human nature. It cannot be said to be "arrogance and luxury".
Although Muhe is good, after all, there is only one flavor. With the increasing number of foreign populations in Luliu Town and the continuous improvement of the quality of life of residents in the territory, Muhe can meet the basic needs of everyone, but gradually it can no longer meet everyone's respective needs!
However... Wang Dafu has not been concerned about agricultural issues for a long time. Although Tao Zongwang is a very experienced agricultural expert, he is only interested in how to further improve the varieties of Muhe. Secondly, Tao Zongwang is an "official fan". Compared with the agricultural issues in Luliu Town, how to do the daily work of the "elders" (that is, to talk about the mountains in the Elders' Courtyard) is what Tao Zongwang is really interested in. As a result, this issue was ignored by Wang Dafu and Tao Zongwang...
If it weren't for the sudden conversation between Daniu Village Chief of Bifeng Village and Elder An today, I'm afraid Wang Dafu wouldn't have realized this matter yet. This is why Wang Dafu suddenly had his eyes shining.
Although this seems to be just a small matter, as the saying goes, "details determine success or failure". If you don't really care about the people and go deep into the people, understand the sufferings of the people, and understand the people's hearts and conditions, how can you notice the little and small matters? At least the lord and mayor of the big city who claims to love the people did not discover it.
Although it is just a "trivial matter" of planting wood, wheat, rice, and corn, it is not difficult to recognize his talent when you can notice such a problem! - The reason why Wang Dafu's eyes are shining is not because he discovered the "food problem", but because he discovered a talent that he had never paid attention to!
"Who is this person?" Wang Dafu suddenly asked Xiao Rang in a low voice.
"An Deyu, the current elder of Bifeng Village~~The former Songyue Empire has already been the top scholar in the imperial examination." Xiao Rang was obviously very familiar with the situation in Bifeng Village and immediately replied confidently.
"...I almost missed such a talent... Fortunately, fortunately, I found it early, otherwise..."
After a moment of silence, just as Wang Dafu caressed his chest and was glad that he had not missed the match with this elder An, the elder An in the room had finished talking to Daniu and got up and prepared to leave.
Seeing that he was about to come out, Wang Dafu quickly signaled everyone and flashed to the other side of the house - he was here to inspect the real situation of Biwei Village on site, and he didn't want to meet with the senior management of Biwei Village yet.
Wang Dafu originally planned to leave after Elder An left and then go to the market for research, but unexpectedly, before they had time to walk away, a few more learned scholars with great aura came over to "talk" to Daniu. Wang Dafu couldn't help but curiously approach and eavesdrop.
"Village Chief, all the overturns in the village have been repaired. I have stepped on them one by one. I feel that there is no problem and it will definitely not delay the second farming this year. We can now consider making a windmill." Hearing this, a very strange picture appeared in Wang Dafu's mind. A rigorous scholar with a genius face was wearing a green scrub, but he was swaying around on the overturn like an ordinary farmer... This picture is really too funny, right?
"When did you Confucian disciples become so humble and even go down the fields to work in person? Could it be that the sun came out from the west? Could it be that they had done a show and ran back?" Wang Dafu thought to himself with malicious intentions, but he intentionally or unintentionally ignored the word "windmill" that this person just mentioned.
But it is obvious that only fat man himself would have such a vulgar idea. The big bull immediately replied respectfully: "Mr. Zhao, I don't understand either. If you think it can be done, you can make the decision. You should make the decision. I will be responsible for solving all the support you need! If it is not enough, I can also ask the adults in the town to support you!"
"The one who was the elder of Bifeng Village just now was taken for granted by Daniu, but he didn't know why he was so polite to Mr. Zhang again? Could it be that he fell in love with someone else's daughter?"
Seeing his respectful look, Wang Dafu couldn't help but sigh. This big bull was speaking under his "subject" and was clearly "reporting to his superiors"!
What surprised Wang Dafu was that Daniu was extremely respectful to the next few Confucian scholars. Those who don’t know might think that these Confucian scholars are the “leaders” and Daniu is just a “subordinate” who is obedient!
This not only made Wang Dafu hiding aside confused. The instructions he gave to Daniu were "if these Confucian scholars were beaten if they were disobedient," but now, seeing Daniu's respectful appearance, Wang Dafu almost thought that he had issued the wrong order, saying: "If these Confucian scholars were disobedient, they would be beaten?"
After finally waiting for the scholars to leave with satisfaction, Wang Dafu could no longer hold back his questions and walked into the village chief's office. At this time, he no longer cared about "private visits".
"Ah! Mayor, why are you here?" Daniu was shocked when he saw Wang Dafu suddenly appear.
"Haha~~ It's okay, I'm just here to take a look~~" Wang Dafu waved his hand, pondered the words, and said with a smile: "Big Niu~~ You did a good job. You upgraded Bifeng Village to a level 5 village so quickly, which is worthy of praise!"
"Mayor, this is all thanks to the help of all the gentlemen, and I didn't put in any effort." Daniu said with a simple face: "I want to thank them."
"...This kid has learned to be an official voice even after not seeing you for a few days..." Wang Dafu was speechless for a moment, and thought for a while and continued, "Well~~ Daniu, I was about to ask you, how have you felt during this period? Which scholars have caused trouble for you?" Unconsciously, Wang Dafu's attitude has changed. At least he no longer speaks of "corrupt scholars" or "rice insects".
"No, mayor, these gentlemen are more capable than me. They say I am, then I must be not doing well, I will listen to them..." Daniu said with a straightforward smile on his face.
"Hmm? They said I? That means these guys still have suggestions? Then why are you..." Although Wang Dafu had discovered that all the "opinions or suggestions" mentioned by Confucian scholars who came to find Da Niu were very practical and reasonable, and he was also very glad that Da Niu, who came from the "Urban Management Brigade", did not use their daily management methods. (As mentioned in the previous article, the task of the first batch of soldiers in Luliu Town was to act as the "Urban Management Brigade")
But no matter how glad he was, Wang Dafu still had to ask the reason. No matter what, the behavior of these Confucian scholars was already considered "disobeying discipline", but he didn't know why this big bull did not take "legitimate administrative means to manage" according to Wang Dafu's original instructions, but instead respected them. This was not like the style of the "urban management brigade"! - But fortunately, this was not the case. Otherwise, Wang Dafu would not be able to imagine what the Bifeng Village would look like. To be honest, Wang Dafu is now very scared of his original instructions that "brained water".
Touching his head straightforwardly, the big bull smiled and said, "Haha~~My mother said, gentlemen are all learned people. I must respect them, listen to them, and not offend them..."
"Oh~~my god, praise the great mother. Praise the great filial piety~~" Wang Dafu heard a completely unexpected answer and felt a little amused.
But how to say it, because of a completely unexpected reason (Da Niu’s filial piety), Wang Dafu’s extremely ridiculous order ended in vain, which made him "unexpectedly" gain a fifth-level affiliated village and a group of administrative talents with considerable capabilities!
However, none of these are the most important. The most important thing is that through this incident, Wang Dafu realized two very important issues - his prejudice against Confucianism and the signs of crisis hidden under the current prosperity of Luliu Town.
