The lobsters of this era are different from the lobsters of later generations.

Because lobsters are omnivorous and eat everything, in later generations, due to pollution, they should not be eaten in excess. In this era, it doesn't matter.

Although this thing doesn't have much meat, it is extremely nutritious, even better than ordinary meat.

People have to eat meat and have nutrition.

This is Fang Jifan's most simple concept.

Only with nutrition can you have strength, and in this era, too many people are pale and thin, with disheveled faces, and are extremely weak. You need to be strong, otherwise, you won’t have the energy to farm or build embankments. Even if you recruit soldiers, you’re still a bunch of skinny people.

Some people can't figure out this account, but Fang Jifan's small abacus has been upgraded to the level of an integrated circuit digital computer, which can run complex calculations without any obstacles, and even has a certain graphics processing ability.

The only worry is that some of the crayfish in the pond will escape and eventually become wild crayfish, and then become an invasive species, destroying the ecology of our great Jiangxi.

But if you think about it carefully, at present, the real invasive species in this big Jiangxi should be millions of Jiangxi old cousins. Invasion, what are you invading? I can't kill you!

Fang Jifan squatted by the pond, beckoning to Xiong Er: "Come here."

Xiong Er came over honestly: "What orders does the Captain have?"

Fang Jifan said: "From today onwards, don't do anything, just stay here, no matter when he is, guard it for me, stay close to each other, and watch these shrimps."

Xiong Er nodded and nodded: "I know, don't let the shrimp escape?"

Fang Jifan said angrily, "Don't let those damn old cousins ​​steal my shrimp."

"Oh, oh." Xiong Er became vigilant: "Poke, they don't dare to steal, they won't kill them if they steal."

Crayfish are easy to feed, especially in an environment like Jiangxi.

In the future, Fang Jifan will not only raise shrimps in the pond, but also raise shrimps in the harvested rice fields.

He got up and let Chen Wang, the captain of Tuntian, also guard here, explained some precautions for breeding, and then slipped back into his shed.

Zhu Houzhao came over out of breath.

Although it was the twelfth lunar month of winter, Zhu Houzhao was dressed in short clothes and was steaming all over his body. As soon as he entered the shed, he drank Fang Jifan's half-drinked tea in one gulp, wiped his mouth, and said, "There are more than three hundred people here." Refugees, there are so many refugees in Jiangxi?"

Fang Jifan shook his head and shook his head: "Your Highness, King Ning has perverted the law, and the people are suffering from hunger and cold. Now that His Highness has conquered Nanchang, the soldiers and civilians are all rejoicing and eating pots of pulp to welcome the king's teacher!"

Zhu Houzhao said dumbfoundedly: "They just brought their mouths. Where can there be a pot of rice?"

Fang Jifan said: "This is modification."

Zhu Houzhao said with emotion: "There are so many people to support now. Today..." He took out a notebook from his waist, bowed his head and said, "Today we have reclaimed 1,235 mu of land, but it is not enough. What should we do?" ?”

Fang Jifan said: "It's not easy. Poyang Lake can also be built around the lake to avoid silt. There is a lot of land there, but in order to prevent heavy rains in the future, the river will soar and it will be reclaimed with great difficulty. The fields have been washed away, so it would be better to dredge a few canals, so that when the water rises, the flood can be discharged through the rivers, and the land along the banks can be irrigated, but...to repair the canals, I am afraid that a lot of manpower will be wasted."

"All we have are people." Zhu Houzhao laughed, "Okay, I'll tell them to do it."

Zhu Houzhao was very serious about his work. He took out the notebook, picked up a pen, and wrote down Fang Jifan's words.

Fang Jifan said: "I heard that His Majesty is coming?"

"Whether love comes or not has nothing to do with Bengong."

Fang Jifan narrowed his eyes: "His Royal Highness, have you forgotten that you have made so many decrees?"

Zhu Houzhao's face was green and pale: "This... this is the will of the emperor."

"Oh." Fang Jifan nodded: "Understood, it is His Majesty's imperial decree. His Majesty is really good at knowing people. He can see His Highness's talent at a glance. He has conferred so many official positions on His Highness. It is amazing to know a son like a father."

"..."

Zhu Houzhao laughed dryly: "Haha, haha, I don't want to talk to you."

Feeling a little guilty, Zhu Houzhao hurried out of the shed, pointed to the flying ball in the sky and said: "Call Yang Biao and the others down and repaint them. What are you doing so ostentatiously? I'm afraid that others will not know that I am here."

…………

After driving for six days, we arrived at Nanchang Mansion.

First, a group of eunuchs and imperial guards came on flying horses, looking for His Highness the Crown Prince, but unexpectedly, His Highness the Crown Prince was not in Nanchang City, but on the other side of the river.

It should be known that in this era, there is no bridge between the north and the south of the Ganjiang River, so the eunuchs had to look at each other across the river. On one side is Nanchang Mansion, where singing and dancing is peaceful, and on the other side, it is a shabby shack. Hastily took the ferry, crossed the river, and found Fang Jifan: "Where is His Royal Highness?"

Fang Jifan said: "Go to Meiling to quarry."

"Your Majesty is coming, he will be here in a blink of an eye." The eunuchs stamped their feet angrily: "Your Majesty must not be happy to see the crown prince."

Fang Jifan had no choice but to order someone to go to Meiling, while saying: "Don't worry, don't worry, I'll pick you up."

Fang Jifan followed them across the river to the east bank, and hurried to Zhonggu

Lou, at this time, the mighty driving has entered the city.

Emperor Hongzhi was riding a horse, and he was gradually able to ride a horse. Calluses had been rubbed between his two thighs, so he didn't feel anything unusual. On the horse, they were fierce as dragons and tigers, and they all bowed down and shouted long live.

Fang Jifan hid in the crowd, pretending that His Majesty couldn't see him, and lowered his head.

Who knew that Emperor Hongzhi's sharp eyes fell on Fang Jifan: "Where is the prince?"

All the officials in Nanchang were stunned and didn't know how to answer. Since His Royal Highness entered the city, he ignored them. After taking people to the west bank of the Ganjiang River, he never came back. This prince has a bad temper Well, everyone dare not provoke him, who knows what he is doing.

Fang Jifan had no choice but to say: "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness, is quarrying stones."

"What is quarrying for?" Emperor Hongzhi felt strange.

Fang Jifan said: "Collect stones to build embankments."

repairing the embankment...

"I'll go and have a look."

Fang Jifan said: "Your Majesty, it's on the west bank of the Ganjiang River. I'm afraid I'll have to take a ferry to get there."

Emperor Hongzhi curled his lips indifferently: "If he goes, I can go too."

But after Emperor Hongzhi finished speaking, Jiangxi Governor Wang Zhen hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, you must not go."

"Why?" Emperor Hongzhi frowned.

"This..." Wang Zhen glanced at Fang Jifan, hesitating a bit.

Emperor Hongzhi said: "You say so."

Wang Zhen had no choice but to bite the bullet and said: "Your Majesty, there are mostly water thieves entrenched there, including water thieves from Poyang Lake and bandits from Meiling. They are extremely vicious... His Royal Highness was about to cross the river, and I was already terrified. It's extremely serious, if there is a slight mistake, there is no place for the burial of the minister, death is unforgivable, the minister even sent troops across the river to protect His Highness the Crown Prince, but who would have thought that His Highness the Crown Prince would drive them back, these thieves have hard-won habits Change, I am only afraid of these thieves, although they are temporarily suppressed, but the thieves are hard to change, once His Majesty crosses the river, these people..."

Emperor Hongzhi frowned, and said sharply: "Since that's the case, why is the prince there!"

Dare to love, there is a den of thieves.

Sure enough, Zhu Houzhao is a kid who will go wherever there is danger.

In this era, the boundaries between officers and soldiers and thieves are very clear. For high-ranking officials, thieves are thieves. If you don’t act in safety and starve to death, but follow the example of praying mantises, this is an evil crime against the norms, and you must not be trusted. .

Emperor Hongzhi read the memorials every day, and the local officials reported the thieves from various places, most of which were how cruel and vicious the thieves were, and they would naturally be affected by these memorials.

Hearing that the prince was alone in the den of thieves, his face turned blue.

Fang Jifan said: "Your Majesty, don't worry, Governor Wang, what you said is too much. These people are not thieves."

Wang Zhen looked at Fang Jifan in fear. This captain is not reasonable. Wang Zhen is really afraid of him, so he doesn't argue with Fang Jifan.

Emperor Hongzhi frowned: "I'll go and have a look."

Emperor Hongzhi beat his horse to leave.

But Wang Zhen became anxious again: "Your Majesty, why don't you wait for a few days, the river is surging and there are no bridges, and the army can't cross it. Why don't you delay for a few days, and I will try my best to conscript a hundred ferries... First order the army to go there, and then your majesty will go to the river again." ..."

"I can't wait." Emperor Hongzhi looked at Fang Jifan: "I ask you, Fang Jifan, can I cross the river now?"

Fang Jifan thought for a while: let's cross the river. "

Wang Zhen and others were in an uproar.

Now crossing the river, how many guards can be brought, and whoever has an accident.

Emperor Hongzhi thought for a while, and seemed to have made up his mind: "The prince can go, and I can go too. Fang Jifan, you will lead the way. Xiao Banban, Ouyang Qing's family, you two choose a hundred guards, and go with me."

Wang Zhen couldn't help but knelt down: "Your Majesty...Your Majesty governs all directions, how can you rush into the den of thieves lightly. I...I am willing to accompany you and protect Your Majesty."

Emperor Hongzhi ignored him.

After a while, several ferry boats were requisitioned, more than a hundred people, first a commander led dozens of people to the opposite bank first, and then the ferry turned back, Emperor Hongzhi, Fang Jifan and others boarded the ferry, and Wang Zhen finally followed But he was terrified inside and looked dazed. Looking around, he saw an old acquaintance, Zhang Sheng.

Zhang Sheng is the minister of the Ministry of Rites. When Wang Zhen was still in the Metropolitan Procuratorate, he was regarded as his old official. Wang Zhen couldn't help stepping forward and said, "Mr. It's dangerous, Your Majesty is going there rashly, I'm afraid it's inappropriate, why didn't Zhang Gong persuade him."

Zhang Sheng put on a straight face, and said to himself, my son is also on the other side, who cares about you!

He stroked his beard and remained silent.

Wang Zhen made fun of it.

In a blink of an eye, the ferry boat arrived at Honggutan. It was chilly on the riverside, and Emperor Hongzhi began to look at the coast.
