Chapter 57: It works very successfully
(The first update is delivered on Monday, please bookmark, please recommend votes, Sanjiang tickets!)
The shamelessness of time travelers is most fully reflected, and Wang Yi just takes Su Daxia’s famous works as his own so shamelessly!
"Okay! Good! Good name, good poem..." As soon as Wang Yishi finished reciting, several extras immediately cheered loudly, and everyone's faces showed an excited look, as if they really understood the true meaning of the poem, understood the name of West Lake, and the rhyme of West Lake.
After Li Hongjie and Zhou Duan and other people who had actually read books understood the content of Wang Yi's poems, their surprised expressions became stronger and stronger. After thinking for a long time, Li Hongjie finally showed an admiring smile on his face and nodded: "The poems written by Chen Yang are very wonderful, and the suggestions they put forward are also excellent. 'I want to compare West Lake with West Lake', haha... I said very well, West Lake, Xizi Lake, this name is good, good... good! With "West Lake" and "Xizi Lake" are called Qiantang Lake, which is really appropriate..."
After thinking about it, Cui Zhinian nodded and praised: "Envoy Li, the official thought that the proposal made by Prince Wang is very appropriate. This lake is located in the west of Hangzhou City. In the past, some people in the market privately called it "West Lake". Today, I heard Prince Wang's poem interpret the name of "West Lake" with "Western Lake" in this poem!"
At this time, a very famous "country gentry" named Wang Yuan also stepped forward and greeted Li Hongjie, Cui Zhinian and Zhou Duan, who stood aside with a complicated expression, and Wang Yi, who was indifferent, said: "Li Envoy Li, Cui Biejia, Zhou Mingfu, I think that the suggestions made by Prince Wang are really good. The name of "Qiantang Lake" only means the meaning of region. If it is "Western Lake" in the future, "Western Lake" will be named, and if there is such an outstanding poem by Prince Wang praises it, I believe that with the spread of the poems written by Prince Wang, the reputation of "Western Lake" will become more and more famous, and the name of Hangzhou will also be known to the world as the reputation of "Western Lake" and "Western Lake"..."
After the gentry said this, more gentry followed suit, and kept praising Wang Yi's poems and the names he mentioned were very good. It would be a pity if he didn't adopt them.
"This name and this poem are really good!"
After Wang Yi finished speaking, Li Hongjie had already praised him. Zhou Duan, who had originally wanted to express his opposition, did not speak up. Wang Yi's suggestions and this poem were really good. In addition, everyone who followed him praised him, he could not find a reason to oppose him.
The gentry who followed him had a great influence among the people in Hangzhou. Even if the official does not recognize the name of "West Lake" and "Xizi Lake", as long as these people go out and pass on Wang Yi's poem to others, folk scholars and people will definitely be called Qiantang Lake by the name of "West Lake" and "Xizi Lake" when singing Wang Yi's masterpiece.
Li Hongjie stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Cui Biejia, Zhou Mingfu, I think Chenyang's discussion is very good. Name Qiantang Lake after 'Xizi Lake', which is really an eye-catching idea. In addition, there is such a good poem to praise the beauty of Qiantang Lake. 'Xihu' will definitely become famous because of this. Let's also publish the list to let the people in the market judge it and see if this name will be accepted by the people..."

After Wang Yi returned to the mansion, he immediately told Wang Fu about what had just happened. After hearing this, Wang Fu immediately sent someone to pay attention to check it out and arranged for his subordinates to take countermeasures after the government announced the list, and that the name Wang Yi mentioned must be recognized.
The next day, the weather cleared, and Wang Yi was concerned about the rice dumplings in the village and took Wang Fu and others back to the village.
During the rice seedling breeding and germination of rice seedlings in Chameng, Wang Yi returned to the village several times to personally check the seedling cultivation, field management methods, and seedling growth. The rice seedlings were retrieved from the Linyi area of Jiaozhou, nearly ten thousand miles away. Whether it can adapt to the soil conditions in Hangzhou and the yield is still unknown before heading.
Now the rice seeds have sprouted and the production is also good. The seedlings grow nearly ten centimeters and the temperature has become warmer. The paddy fields to be planted are plowing well, and it is time to move them soon. However, when they were hit by such a heavy rain the day before yesterday, Wang Yi was also afraid that the rice seedlings would be damaged, and he also wanted to see if they needed to take countermeasures after knowing the situation.
Wang Yi, who knew very well that once this crop was successfully planted and promoted on a large scale, would have a great effect on the entire society. He naturally regarded rice cultivation in Chameng very importantly. He went back to the village several times to check the growth of rice, and the importance was beyond everyone's expectations.
The situation was fine, because when heavy rain was approaching, Wang Zuo, who stayed in the village, sent someone to release all the water in the seedlings. Although some seedlings were damaged due to heavy rain, the overall damage was not serious and did not affect summer sowing, which made Wang Yi feel most relieved.
That is, on the day when Wang Yi brought Wang Fu back to the village to check the situation, there was a lot of water in the fields because it rained and the sun came out again, which was very suitable for rice seedlings to be transplanted. Wang Zuo also brought the people in the village to move all rice seedlings to the selected fields.
Wang Yi stood in the field and watched the people in the village move the seedlings. When he saw the green seedlings being planted at certain intervals, he felt a hint of emotion and a great hope.
Wang Yi very much hopes that under the guidance of the planting "experts" brought by Wang Zuopai people, Chameng Rice, a brand new rice seed, can be successfully cultivated, bringing abundant yields, and providing more seeds. If less than 100 kilograms of rice seeds can be successfully cultivated, the harvested seeds will be dozens of times, and the next season can be cultivated and planted. Soon all paddy fields in the village can be planted until they are promoted in Hangzhou.
If this rice seed does have a short growth period, high yield, and few pests and diseases, after reporting to the court, Li Shimin, the emperor who is now diligent in politics, would definitely be very interested. Then it can be widely promoted in the Tang Dynasty, and the problem of people in the world's food will be easily solved.
In the early years of Zhenguan, the people's food problems were not completely solved because of insufficient grain production. In some famine years, the court often could not provide enough money and grain to provide disaster relief, resulting in constant refugees. Wang Yi saw these things in some historical books recording the Tang Dynasty. He hoped that because of the arrival of his time traveler, he could solve this problem with the experience and knowledge that later generations knew.
For example, today, when one year of planting and ripening is widely implemented in the next era, it is indeed not too difficult to significantly increase the yield of grain. Adopt intensive cultivation techniques, widely planting rice, and promoting chameng rice. It is recommended to replant rice and wheat, and to ripen a few times a year. Even if it is affected by disasters, ordinary farmers will not have no food. After all, there is more field in the home of every farmer now than in later generations.
Wang Yi also really wanted to directly suggest to Emperor Li Shimin that the court would increase its efforts to develop Jiangnan and that Jiangnan would be fully developed. This place called the "granary" in later generations and "paragraph on earth" would be valued by the court earlier and fully developed, it would definitely be a "paragraph on earth" hundreds of years earlier than in history and become the granary of the Tang Dynasty.
However, Wang Yi is still unable to go to Chang'an for the time being. He also hopes that on the day he can go to Chang'an, a miracle will appear in Hangzhou, proving that his conclusion is correct.

"Second Young Master, the government has really announced the renaming of Qiantang Lake!" Wang Fu hurried in and said to Wang Yi, who was practicing calligraphy in the study with joy. "The name of the second one mentioned "West Lake" and "Xizi Lake" was written on the list, but also wrote the poem "West Lake" you wrote..."
"Oh?! What are the reactions of the people in the market?" Wang Yi was also a little surprised and asked immediately.
"Almost all the people in the market praised the 'West Lake'. The 'West Lake' is very appropriate, and there is almost no opposition. The scholars in the city praised the poem you wrote on the same day by the second young master. After reading your poem, they all had the urge to go to Qiantang Lake. No, they wanted to go to West Lake to see the beautiful scenery of the lake and mountains!"
The extras arranged by Wang Fu did not play much role, because those scholars who saw the announcement and those illiterate people who heard the announcement all praised "West Lake". The name "West Lake" was appropriately named and rarely heard opposition. The scholars in the city were amazed after seeing the poem "West Lake" written by Wang Yi, and praised the poems written by Wang Yi were getting better and better, and the charm was even more memorable. One day, the streets and alleys of Hangzhou and the city were talking about the West Lake, and sang the "masterpiece" of Wang Yi's "made" by Wang Yi!"
"That's great!" Wang Yi applauded. Thinking that the name of West Lake would appear in history through his suggestions, a very great sense of accomplishment appeared in his heart. West Lake is about to move towards history. From then on, the name of West Lake will definitely replace the name of Qiantang Lake and is well-known to the world. I believe that by next spring, after the peach willow and other trees are planted in large quantities, in a few years, the West Lake area will surely be as beautiful as a fairyland. He also believes that as the famous work he "made" that stolen Su Shi spread, the name of West Lake will be well-known to more people.
"Second Young Master, today I want to tell you a bigger good thing!" Wang Fu's face showed unconcealed joy.
"What a great thing?"
"After the government issued a list a few days ago, after asking the names of several long dikes and small islands in the lake, do you know what the most mentioned names are the people?"
Wang Yi shook his head, "I don't know..." He hasn't been to the streets these days, and he doesn't know what the people in the market are talking about.
"What the scholars and the people in Hangzhou mentioned most is that the Baisha embankment was still named, the newly built long dike that ran across the north and south was Li Gong Dike, and the long dike in the west of the lake was named Wang Gong Dike. Second Prince, the people in Hangzhou remember you and named Chang Dike after your surname!" Wang Fu's voice became louder when he spoke.
"Li Gongdi? Wang Gongdi?" No, Wang Yi didn't expect that the people would actually be named after the surnames of him and Li Hongjie. This has robbed Su Shi and Yang Mengying of later generations. How could these two historical celebrities who made great contributions to Hangzhou?
"Yes!" Wang Fu nodded vigorously, "In addition, the names of the small islands in the lake, "Xiaoyingzhou", "Huancui Dun" by the second young master, have also been recognized by most people. If nothing unexpected happens, the government should adopt the name you named!"
"That's great!" Wang Yi couldn't help but cheer and looked at Wang Fu and laughed.
My subordinates are quite capable of doing things. During the dredging of Qiantang Lake, the action of building momentum for him was very successful...
