The Iron Dragon flying boat slowly landed on the huge grain drying field outside Piianzhuang Castle on the edge of the Ning River.

This place is Ninghe Fort, which manages all official fields in Ninghe County.

In Ninghe County, there is no need for airships or airship landing sites, because the grain fields attached to various farms and castles are several hundred meters long and wide, and the ground is either cement or stone. These grain fields are

There are many natural landing sites for airships and airships in Ninghe County.

While still on the flying boat, Zhang Tie saw a large number of people waiting for him in the grain field below. Among the large crowd, a few bright reds, blues and purples stood out.

"Why are the officials from Ninghe County also here? Didn't they notify them?" Zhang Tie asked Tang De.

Tang De sighed, "The 120 million acres of government land you rented in Ninghe County are the best in Ninghe County. The irrigated fields south of Ninghe County and the various fields in Ninghe County are all the best."

Up, including those mountain fields and dry fields, it is more than 300 million acres. You will be the largest landowner in Ninghe County in the future. Now the officials in Ninghe County are all in trouble. You said that if you were them, you would suddenly hear the world-famous

Qianji Zhenren was taken advantage of and was willing to use 50% of the land rent to rent all the official land in Ninghe County. What do you think they will think?"

"I think there must be something I can do to treat me as a life-saving straw!"

"Of course, when I heard the news that you were coming to Ninghe County, the officials here rushed over to wait on you one by one to see if Master Qianji had any unique methods that could save Ninghe County from disaster!"

While he was talking, the Iron Dragon flying boat was already hovering over the grain field. Zhang Tie rubbed his face and led Tang De towards the door of the flying boat.

Olina and others originally wanted to see what the Yanzhou granary looked like, but just now they saw in the sky that the land was covered with burnt ink scenes of fields, and not a trace of green could be seen. Olina and others

They couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. When the wind came, the dark wheat ash in the fields started flying all over the sky, turning into a veritable black wind. In addition, there were too many people outside the flying boat, and the women lost interest and did not want to fall outside at this time.

I don't want to get off the boat at this time.

As soon as the door of the flying boat opened. As soon as Zhang Tie's figure appeared at the door of the flying boat, Zhang Tie saw a group of prostrate bodies outside the flying boat. Several officials from Ninghe County were standing in front of the crowd, taking the lead to pay homage to him.

.

In Taixia, the Earth Knights have the qualification to be on equal footing with the governor of a state. Coupled with Zhang Tie's reputation, there is absolutely no governor of any state in the Northeast Governor's Palace who dares to say that he is more famous than Zhang Tie.

All people are respectful.

"We look forward to welcoming Master Qianji!"

There are hundreds of people with uniform voices. It seems that they have practiced. Moreover, these people have never seen me, but they recognized me as soon as I came out. They probably asked about my appearance and figure in advance. They will not think of me as someone on a flying boat.

's follower.

Zhang Tie stepped off the flying boat and noticed that just outside the grain field, in order to block the black wheat ash flying everywhere, straw mats were pulled up outside. There were three layers of straw mats in total.

, hanging from the ground to a height of more than four meters, creating a natural artificial windbreak, which is considered thoughtful, but the barn is too big. It is almost like a newly built Class A airstrip in Zhulong County.

, the number of straw mats hung outside the grain field is also large, and it is absolutely time-consuming and labor-intensive.

Tang De followed Zhang Tie and also got off the flying boat.

The ground beneath your feet is cement mixed with bluestone, which is quite smooth and very solid. The water stains on the ground have just dried, but there is still some moisture. It seems that they have been cleaned carefully. But I don’t know who is waiting here.

After a long time, when Zhang Tie got off the flying boat, some scattered black and gray wheat ash could still be seen on the ground. Zhang Tie's flying boat had arrived. Naturally, it was impossible for the people who greeted him to find anyone to come in front of Zhang Tie.

Iron surface cleaning.

The crowd stood up straight, and everyone was looking at Zhang Tie. Everyone looked calm and polite, but only their eyes showed deep surprise and awe.

Anyone who meets Zhang Tie for the first time will be surprised that the famous Qianji Zhenren looks like a handsome young man of seventeen or eighteen years old. No one would believe it unless they saw him in person.

"Thank you for your waiting!" Zhang Tie's voice was gentle, neither too enthusiastic nor too cold. It just made people feel as mellow as the spring breeze and autumn dew, and everyone's pressure suddenly eased.

Among all the officials, the one wearing the uniform of the county magistrate quickly raised his hands and said, "At this time, Master Qianji's visit will definitely be a timely help to the people of Ninghe County!"

Zhang Tie looked at the official who was speaking. This official was in his sixties and had a loyal face. However, his complexion was a little bad. He probably hadn't slept well these days. There were bags around his eyes. There was some bitterness on his face and at the corners of his mouth.

He looked like he was getting angry and said, "You must be the Sheriff of Ninghe County!"

"The lower official is Liu Yuntao, the governor of Ninghe County!"

"Where is the steward of Ninghe Fort?"

Hearing Zhang Tie's words, a round ball immediately emerged from behind Liu Yuntao. This person looked at Zhang Tie with a fawning look, "The villain is here!"

The man who emerged from the crowd behind Liu Yuntao was too short. Liu Yuntao was not very tall. Standing next to Liu Yuntao, this man was only as tall as Liu Yuntao's shoulders. Standing behind several officials, he was almost tall.

Completely obscured by the people in front of him, it was almost difficult to spot him among the crowd, and his body was round and fat. When he came out, it was like a ball rolling out of the crowd, plus

The look of this man's small eyes and nose, as well as the dazzling red lees on the tip of his small nose, damn it, he is simply the reincarnation of the legendary hedgehog spirit. Zhang Tie almost couldn't help laughing when he saw it.

This man has dark skin and brown-grey hair. He is actually a foreigner from the subcontinent.

"May I have your name?"

"My name is Xiao Ciwei!"

This man's pronunciation had a strange accent. As soon as he said the three words "Xiao Ciwei", Zhang Tie was immediately confused.

"What, little hedgehog?" Zhang Tie looked surprised, wondering how this guy dared to amuse himself.

"Thank you Master for giving me the name today. From now on, I will be called Little Hedgehog!" Xiao Ciwei knelt on the ground all of a sudden. The big snake followed the stick and kowtowed to Zhang Tie three times, waiting for him to raise his head.

At that time, my forehead was all red, but there was still a happy smile on my face.

This style of behavior directly caused several Ninghe County officials next to him to frown secretly, and they couldn't help showing a look of contempt on their faces. It is a state for a person to be so shameless.

.

Zhang Tie looked at this person deeply. Such a person can do this in public. If he is not a born flatterer, he must have abilities that are difficult for others to match. Otherwise, such a person would never be possible.

Sitting in the position of steward of Ninghe Fort, this position ranks first among all stewards of official land in Ninghe County. For ordinary people, the power is not small. Xiao Ciwei got here by flattery and flattery.

Regarding the position, this person is really capable. In fact, it is not difficult to distinguish, and it can be revealed in a moment.

The official land in Ninghe County now belongs to Zhang Tie, and the future and destiny of those who are dependent on the official land are naturally in Zhang Tie's hands.

Zhang Tie looked away from Xiao Ciwei. "Okay, we don't have to stand here anymore. Let's take a walk together..."

"I wonder where the real person wants to look?" Liu Yuntao asked respectfully.

"Go to the river first and let him lead the way!" Zhang Tie pointed at Xiao Ciwei...

"This is my honor!" Xiao Ciwei smiled happily and quickly walked in front to lead Zhang Tie towards the Ninghe River in the north of the barn.

At this time, Zhang Tie was naturally the one walking in front. Tang De was one step behind Zhang Tie, walking behind Zhang Tie. Liu Yuntao and Xiao Ciwei walked on both sides of Zhang Tie, and hundreds of other people followed in a mighty manner.

behind the individual.

A group of people walked out of the threshing floor and went outside. There was more wheat ashes on the road. An obvious layer of ashes could be seen not only on the road, but also on the leaves and grass on the roadside, and on the walls and eaves of the houses.

Now the entire Ninghe County is almost like this. It cannot be cleared by manual cleaning. These days, 120 million acres of wheat fields harvested this summer in Ninghe County have been burned. The flying wheat ash and the charred earth have made the entire

Ninghe County has almost changed color. Without a few heavy rains, these ashes cannot be removed at all.

Seeing Zhang Tie glance at the leaves on the roadside a few times, Liu Yuntao, the governor of Ninghe County, quickly explained to Zhang Tie the causes and consequences of burning the wheat fields.

Even at this time, whenever the wind blows, there will always be some wheat ash in the wind.

"It's burnt, it's clean. It's just that those straw mats hanging on the edge of the barn to keep out the wind and ash are too time-consuming and labor-intensive. I won't have to do this in the future. I'm not that delicate. This little wheat ash is no better than Diyuan."

The air in the abyss is even more poisonous. By the way, how many straw mats are used on the edge of the barn?" Zhang Tie kept talking and asked Xiao Ciwei a question without leaving any trace.

"A total of 8,761 straw mats!" Xiao Ciwei said the number of straw mats without hesitation for half a second.

"No, why did I just see 8,786 straw mats?" Zhang Tie said nonchalantly.

"There are 8,761 intact straw mats, and 50 straw mats are somewhat damaged. There are not that many straw mats stored in the Ninghe Fort warehouse, so I asked people to cut off half of the damaged straw mats and leave the other half.

Put the two together into one and hang them up, and I made 25 more..." There was a tremor in Xiao Ciwei's words.

After hearing the words of the two people, the people next to them all suddenly felt awe in their hearts. They were all in awe. It was not surprising that Xiao Ciwei knew how many straw mats were hung on the grain field. At most, it only meant that he was quite diligent in his work and did not make a fool of himself in public.

Qianji Zhenren got off the flying boat and did not deliberately look to count. He just took a casual look and saw how many straw mats were hung around the barn, but not one of them escaped his eyes. Such strength is really terrifying.

Already...

At this time, a strong wind blew, and the wind was mixed with some wheat ash. Many people in the team quickly covered their mouths and noses with their sleeves, but the wind carrying wheat ash blew three feet away from Zhang Tie.

Then he bypassed Zhang Tie and blew over.

Zhang Tie seemed unaware of it and continued walking towards the Ning River.

The road from Ninghe Fort to the edge of Ninghe River is well built. It is a six-lane cement stone road. On both sides of the road, there is a large willow forest and a locust forest. You can see it when walking on the road.

There are neat four- to five-meter-deep water channels repaired with stones in the woods. One end of the water channel is connected to the Ning River, and the other end is like a blood vessel in the human body, continuously extending to the fertile fields in the distance.

There are water canals, with water houses and sluices along the way, which can flexibly and freely distribute the water to irrigate the fields. Connected to the water houses and sluices, there are also half-meter-thick cement prefabricated pipes that go deep into the fields. These cement

The pipes have water valves directly where they enter the fields. Irrigating the fields is very convenient, just like turning on the faucet in your own kitchen. It is no exaggeration to say that the water conservancy project here in Ninghe County is definitely the best in Taixia.

, naturally, it should also be the best among human beings.

"How many farms and forts are there to manage these official fields in Ninghe County? How many farmers are employed, and how many sets of farm machinery are there?"

Zhang Tie asked Xiao Ciwei as he walked.

"There are a total of 3,147 farms that manage official fields in Ninghe County, employing 1,765,521 farmers, and more than 512,180 sets of various agricultural machinery!" Xiao Ciwei did not hesitate at all, and took out the official fields rented by Zhang Tie like a treasure.

The data was reported.

"Who are the farmers employed by these farmhouses?"

"Most of the hired farmers are border residents from the Yiyue subcontinent like the villain!"
