Cultivation Starts From Planting Sweet Potatoes

In addition to lamenting that Peach Blossom Fairy is now too famous, Zhang He also found out some news in the city.

It is said that the two sons fought that day, and the specific process is generally unknown to Qi training monks.

All I know is that one day later, Young Master Jian led his people to withdraw from Lu Le City and went to Qingshui County, which is adjacent to Lu Le City.

When Zhang He returned to Heishui Town, it was already a few days later.

Today's Heishui Town has become more and more prosperous, the outer wall with a height of one foot has been repaired, and there is still a team of people patrolling the wall.

There are two horizontal and vertical streets in the town, and the houses on both sides of the street are all built with blue bricks, and the overall coordination is beautiful.

Since there are factories and schools in the town, more than 3,000 people live in Heishui Town for a long time.

The current Heishui Town is called a small county town by many local tenants.

This is partly due to the prosperity of Heishui Town, and another reason is that most people have never been to Dehua County in their entire lives, and Heishui Town can fully satisfy their imagination.

After these years of education, the Heishui Town School has trained the first batch of students.

For this group of students, Zhang He conducted an assessment, and all the outstanding ones were retained.

Some of them will be sent to Zhaoling County or other cities to open stores and sell soybean products, soybean oil, wine, and maltose produced by the factory in Heishui Town.

In addition, the daily management of the factory and Heishui Town also requires some educated manpower.

There are also a few who are suitable for practicing martial arts and immortality, and they are all assigned to the guard team.

Now he has completely let go of the training of the guards, and he can choose to practice martial arts or immortal skills.

However, currently there are only a dozen or so people who are qualified to practice immortal skills, and the guards are still mainly warriors.

Most of the remaining students with mediocre grades were still sent back to work as sharecroppers.

There is no way around this. Blackwater Town is so big, and he only needs so many talents at present, and there are so many places. After all, there must be people of race, so he can only recruit based on merit.

When there is a need in the future, it is better to choose from among these people than to only have a few scholars in the whole town.

For students,

They are not at a loss. Not only have they learned a lot of knowledge in the past few years, but they can also receive rations every day.

As for allocating land to tenants, Zhang He never considered it.

All the land in Heishui Town belongs to his Zhang family, or it can be said to belong to the Gu Liang family, and most of the land rent collected must be handed over to the Gu Liang family.

If the land is distributed and high taxes are collected from the farmers, then the farmers will feel exploited and squeezed out, and they will grow their own land according to their ability. Why should they pay taxes?

But Gu Liang's family would definitely urge Zhang He to pay taxes directly, and Zhang He couldn't pay for it himself, which would be even more troublesome.

In short, given his current social status, it is a thankless and stupid thing to distribute the land to the tenants.

"Master Zhang is back!"

"Master Zhang is wise and mighty!"

"Master Zhang is invincible!"

"Master Zhang is omnipotent!"

"Master Zhang..."

Several educated teenagers cheered enthusiastically when they saw Zhang He appearing in Heishui Town.

This made Zhang He quite embarrassed, so he could only smile and wave to everyone.

He was thinking, was the textbook he edited a little too forceful?

How could he go out after this?

After all, in this world, ordinary people have very little access to information, and it is still easy to educate.

At the crossroads of Heishui Town, there is another tall building with a "Town Office" sign hanging at the door.

Now the public affairs of Heishui Town are handled in this building.

Zhang He appointed himself the position of mayor, named Weipeng Ling Yin, handed over the daily management of Heishui Town to him, and named Ma Gan Sima, in charge of the army.

These official positions sound a bit nondescript, but Zhang He is too lazy to spend too much thought on this aspect, as long as his subordinates can perform their duties and help him handle all kinds of chores.

When Zhang He walked into the town hall, Wei Peng quickly came to him.

"My lord, it hasn't rained since the beginning of spring this year. The water level of the Blackwater River has dropped, and there are already signs of drought in many places."

"Is there still water in the canal network of our Heishui Town?"

In the past, Heishui Town has been carrying out infrastructure construction for several consecutive years, and a dense network of canals has been built. The general drought of ten days and a half months has no impact on Heishui Town.

"With the current water level of the Heishui River, the water supply of the canal can still be ensured, but the water flow has decreased.

Also, after a general drought, it is often accompanied by locust plagues, so we must guard against it! "

In fact, other towns have already been affected by the drought, and some natural small canals and ponds have bottomed out.

Many tenants often go to the Heishui River for more than ten miles to fetch water, and then transport it to the field, but they can barely save a small piece of crops.

If things continue like this, except for Heishui Town, other villages and towns may lose their crops this year.

Zhang He thought for a while, and faced with this situation, he couldn't think of any good solution.

There is indeed a rain-distributing technique in the world of cultivating immortals, which can cast spells to condense the water vapor in the air and turn it into rain.

However, with his current foundation building skills, one spell can cover at most one or two acres of land. Considering the nearly 100,000 acres of arable land in Heishui Town, he needs to cast tens of thousands of spells to water it once.

Moreover, in the entire Dehua County, there is only Baron Zhiyuan, the lord of the city, who is a Foundation Establishment monk.

It is obviously unrealistic for the cultivators to fight the drought.

"You let duck farms and chicken farms try their best to expand the scale of farming, and once you find traces of locusts, you put chickens and ducks there to kill locusts.

In addition, every village organizes manual inspections, and if large-scale locusts are found, they will be reported immediately. "

These are the only ways Zhang He can think of at the moment, mainly to prevent locust disasters.

Because of the water network system of Heishui Town, as long as the Heishui River keeps flowing, the crops will at most decrease in production, and they will never die.

After doing some more things at the town office, Zhang He went to Zhangjiazhuang.

In Zhangjiazhuang, the old man Zhang has been tossing day and night since he took in Aunt Hua, and he even let him toss out a daughter.

It's just that Aunt Hua may be older or have a bad life. She passed away only half a year after giving birth.

At that time, Zhang He hadn't established his foundation yet, so he used several rejuvenation techniques, but failed to save Aunt Hua's life.

This incident hit old man Zhang hard. In recent years, he has concentrated on raising his children and never wants to take concubines anymore.

"Brother! Hug!"

As soon as Zhang He walked into Zhangjiazhuang, a little girl who was only two or three years old with braids was already running towards him with outstretched arms.

"Yuanyuan! Do you miss your brother?"

The little girl is naturally Zhang Yuan, Zhang He's half-sister, and every time she sees Zhang He, she stretches out her hands to hug him.

Zhang He picked up Zhang Yuan and held it up in the air for a few circles, making her giggle.

Then he pinched her chubby little face and kissed her a few more times.

Let Xiao Zhangyuan kiss him on the cheek again, his face covered with saliva.

"Brother, where have you been, and why don't you come and play with me?"

"Brother went to a far away place to find delicious food for Xiao Yuanyuan."

When Zhang Yuan heard that there was something delicious, he immediately regained his energy. He reached into Zhang He's backpack with his two little hands and began to feel for it.

After returning to the house, Zhang He took out a large watermelon from his backpack, cut it open on the spot, and a fresh fragrance came out.

Zhang Yuan was too short, and after smelling the scent, he couldn't reach the watermelon on the table, so he could only circle around the foot of the table anxiously.

After Zhang He cut it, he took a piece in his hand and handed it to her. Zhang Yuan took the watermelon and couldn't wait to take a bite.

"Delicious! Delicious!"

Zhang Yuan's eyes were now bent into crescents.
