Chapter 523: The Curve Saves the Nation

The fields were quickly sorted out, and Huang Fu wanted to plant a first phase of rice.

There is no shortage of seeds, but Fang Xing has some different opinions.

"Interplanting sugarcane seedlings?"

Huang Fu really didn't understand this. He was afraid that he would harm the tens of thousands of acres of rice, so he always disagreed.

"Xinghe Bo, there is a lot of land here, you can plant it just by finding a place."

Fang Xing spread his hands and said, "But no one is in charge!"

Zhu Gaoxu didn't care about these people's livelihood affairs, so when he heard about planting sugarcane, he left on the excuse of going to the camp to train soldiers.

Huang Fu waited for Zhu Gaoxu to leave before he relaxed a little. The irritable prince put a lot of pressure on him.

But when he looked back and saw Fang Xing's expression that I just depended on you, he was so angry that he couldn't make a fuss.

"When Xinghe Bo, Ruan Shuai's British Duke said he was not allowed to move when he left the last time, or you would go and wipe him out, and there would be no shortage of people who plant sugarcane."

Ruan Shuai? Fang Xing was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly, "Forget it, why don't I go and recruit."

Now that most people have planted rice, farmers are not so nervous about time, but they can gather some people.

Besides, there are many lazy people in Jiaozhi. Instead of letting those women work, it is better to use a whip to get men for rewards.

So all the people from the Baoshan Guard were summoned to mobilize manpower in Dongguan City.

"Everyone goes to the government office to check it out! As long as you are diligent and take good care of the sugarcane fields, you will have enough money and food every month to support yourself!"

"What are you doing when you sit at home? Isn't it embarrassing to support your wife?"

"Your man is so lazy, can you bear it?"

“…”

After some quarrel, Fang Xing, who was in charge of the yamen, got bad news.

Huang Fu came in with a wry smile and said, "Brother Xinghe, I have been working on it for a whole morning, and there are less than a hundred people."

Fang Xing was stunned, and Huang Fu explained: "Jiaozhi's land is fertile, and you can get something by sowing it casually. Some men are lazy and women don't care about him."

"Will it become a seeding machine?"

Only responsible for providing seeds and giving birth to babies, isn’t this a seeding machine?

Huang Fu didn't know the word machine, but he agreed with the word sowing: "That's true, so it's difficult!"

Fang Xing was also in trouble. As soon as a family letter arrived, he read the letter first.

Zhang Shuhui said in the letter: She, Xiaobai, and Lingdang Dahuang are all missing him. Everything is well at home and the situation in the college is also stable... and then, there is a hidden warning in the end.

Husband, I heard that the Jiaozhi woman is capable, but I don’t know how to compare with Xiaobai…

This woman!

This is to get a precautionary vaccine in advance, so that Fang Xing must not bring a concubine home.

but……

Fang Xing put away the letter and showed a proud smile on his face.

Huang Fu is very busy, but no matter how busy he is, he has to receive him when he comes to Fang Xing.

Seeing Fang Xing smiling and Huang Fu, who had already understood some of his habits, was secretly alert and vowed that he would not let Fang Xing have any trouble.

But Fang Xing then changed his serious face and said seriously: "Mr. Huang, can Jiaozhi be considered my territory of the Ming Dynasty?"

"certainly!"

Huang Fu has been deeply engaged in Jiaozhi for many years. If anyone dares to say that Jiaozhi is not the territory of the Ming Dynasty, he will be filled with his old fists!

"The people in Jiaozhi should be considered as my Ming Dynasty, right?"

Fang Xing still had a serious face.

Huang Fu thought something big happened, so he hurriedly said, "Of course it is."

Fang Xing's seriousness immediately turned into sadness: "Hey! In my Ming Dynasty, most men work, and women take care of their husbands and children at home. But look at Jiaozhi, is this place still my Ming Dynasty?"

Huang Fu was a little confused, "Xinghe Bo, but this is the habit of Jiaozhi people. We can't control it, right?"

"Why are you not easy to manage!"

Fang woke up and said heartbrokenly: "Since they are all people of my Ming Dynasty, you can see those women alone in the family affairs. Lord Huang, can you bear it? Isn't there any sadness of empathy?"

Huang Fu was really confused. He didn't know what Fang Xing said, so he nodded and said, "Yes, if a man in the Central Plains was so lazy, he would have been despised by his neighbors long ago."

"Bang!"

Fang Xing slapped his hands and said with admiration: "It turns out that the heroes have similar views! Lord Huang, even the farmers in our Fangjiazhuang do not have such lazy guys. If there is one, there is no need for his family to make trouble, Fang will let him know something, and men should support their families!"

Huang Fu was still confused and had to agree: "That's what it should be."

"But... Xinghe Bo, what you mean by these is..." Huang Fu was very busy, so he didn't have time to talk.

Fang Xing said solemnly: "Mr. Huang, we should fight this unhealthy trend so that the women in Jiaozhi can be more relaxed, at least they cannot rely on women to support their families!"

Huang Fu felt it didn't matter.

"Xinghe Bo, I have no objection to this matter, but I have a lot of things recently, so..."

"Leave this to me!" Fang Xing patted his chest and took the errand.

After Huang Fu left, Fang Xing immediately found a minor official to write a notice, and then asked someone to post it everywhere.

"We must let everyone see it, and let the translations explain it."

So several notices were posted on every street in Dongguan City.

The notice immediately surrounded people, and the translation was explained immediately.

"The new rules of the Governor's Office are because the Jiaozhi women have to work hard and have to have children and work in the fields. The men are just doing nothing at home, and they are very angry about this Governor's Office, so..."

"... The Chief Secretary said that in the future, if there are healthy men at home who do not go out to work, they will be charged a 10% grain tax."

What?

Those Jiaozhi people were confused!

The translation continued: "If a woman is bullied by an unemployed man at home, she can sue the yamen. The yamen will send all such lazy men to plant sugarcane, but the remuneration is reduced by half, and the remuneration is only given to the women at home..."

The Jiaozhi men who were listening were all looking like earth, but this was not squeezing Jiaozhi people, but just to stand up for the women who worked all day.

Such governance cannot be a reason for rebellion.

If anyone rebels because of this, those women will not support them and others will also be ridiculed!

But if you don’t rebel, do you really have to work?

When those women of the jackal heard this, their faces were full of confusion and disbelief.

Is Mingren really that kind-hearted?

But this is an announcement from the General Secretary’s Office. That Lord Huang treats us well!

With all kinds of moods, these Jiaozhi people left, but soon another group of people came, and it happened like this.

Huang Fu only learned about this when he returned to the city to prepare for lunch. When he heard the content of the notice, he was furious and went to Fang Xing to find him.

Fang Xing was having dinner with Zhu Gaoxu in the camp and was talking about some exercises. Seeing Huang Fu rushing in with an angry look on his face, Fang Xing stood up and said, "Did Lord Huang come to tell me about the matter?"

Huang Fu said angrily: "That's right, why did Xing and Bo change their minds? Who will end if this incident arouses the civil rebellion?"

"I can't get up."

Fang Xing called someone to get the dishes and chopsticks, and then explained: "Although Fang is suspected of calculating you, who are the people who are in the Jiaozhi accident? Since men are unreliable, why don't we let Jiaozhi's women think that I, Daming, are their parents' home?"

Seeing Huang Fu still being angry, Fang Xing bowed and apologized, and then said, "As long as those women can be loyal to me, Jiaozhi will be in chaos!"

Huang Fu said depressedly: "Do you want those women to press on the man's head?"

"What's wrong!"
