Chapter 76: Terracing



Zhao Jun returned to his room at night, sent Qing Liu away, and finally contacted the system he hadn't seen for a long time.

"Mirror, what are you doing, mirror?"

Zhao Jun shouted flatteringly.

"On vacation." After a long while, the mirror replied indifferently.

"Ah, you can still take a vacation?" Zhao Jun envied.

"Yeah, someone hasn't contacted me for over a month. If I'm not on vacation, what am I doing? Are they saying I'm unemployed?"

Zhao Jun heard a complaint in his tone, so he hurried to comfort him.

"How could that be? How could Jingzi be unemployed? Your job is a stable one. You can't quit even if you want to."

"I've been quite busy lately. You should be able to hear that I'm doing this for work."

"Forget it, I've seen through your true colors. No one comes to see me for no reason. Tell me, what's the matter?"

The mirror didn't really care, it was just a joke, and it was enjoying its vacation.

"That's right, help me open a world connection. I need to talk to the old man about something."

Zhao Jun mainly wanted to find the old man to learn about the relevant process of terrace construction.

She didn't bring those books this time, and none of those books were about terrace construction, so we can only contact each other now.

"Okay, open it right away."

The mirror answered calmly. It knew that it was just a switch machine. Sob.

"Hello, is that Xiaojun?" The old man on the other end spoke first.

Xiaojun, this was the name she had told the old man before.

Unexpectedly, this time it wasn't his daughter who answered the letter.

"Yes, it's me, old man, you're back."

Didn’t we say before that the old man went to attend some exchange meeting? He should be back now.

"Yes, yes, I'm back. I heard my granddaughter say you wanted medicine. Are you feeling unwell?"

The old man asked with concern.

"It's okay, I just had a slight fever at the time. I'm fine now after taking the medicine. Thank you for your concern."

"It's okay, it's okay. Thank you for the ancient book you gave me last time. It's really valuable for research, haha."

Zhao Jun couldn't help laughing when he heard the old man's hearty laughter.

"By the way, what do you want to talk to me about this time? Hurry up and don't delay."

The old man stopped chatting and started asking about the business.

"Well, I want to build a terraced field here, but I don't have any knowledge in this area, so could you find some professional books on the subject for me?"

"Building terraces is a huge project."

"Okay, don't worry, I'll go find it for you right away. I also know a few agricultural experts, and I'll ask them if they have any suitable books."

The old man patted his chest and assured that there was no problem.

"Okay, thank you for your help. Please do it as soon as possible. Thank you."

After chatting about family matters for a while, Zhao Jun's needs were finally met.

Now we just have to wait for the book from the old man to arrive so we can start work.

The old man was very fast and arrived at noon the next day.

After finally taking a half-day break and finishing lunch, Zhao Jun received a big gift package from the old man.

She went into the house and started studying.

Tan Ben hadn't seen her all day and thought she was resting because she was tired over the past two days.

The next day, when Zhao Jun got up yawning, she already had a more specific idea of ​​how to build the terraces.

"Hello, sir. Have you had a good rest these past two days?"

Tan Ben saw Zhao Jun get up early in the morning and thought she had had a good rest.

"What are you resting for, Magistrate Tan? Our master has been thinking about the things in the fields and has not rested well."

Qingliu answered unhappily. She lived in the same room with Zhao Jun, so of course she knew that she had been mumbling to herself about the terraced fields.

As he spoke, Zhao Jun yawned again.

"So that's how it is. Your Excellency cares about the people and really works hard." Tan Ben said with admiration.

"Okay, come here, I'll talk to you first."

Zhao Jun, sitting at the table next to him, greeted Tan Ben.

"I plan to build terraces on the hillside where I saw it the day before yesterday. Let me tell you how to do it."

Afterwards, Zhao Jun told Tan Ben in detail the knowledge points he had summarized throughout the night.

Terraces? Another new word. Qingliu stood quietly at the back, listening.

"Is this okay?"

Tan Ben felt that her words were a bit far-fetched.

How is it possible to grow crops on a hillside? People can't even climb up there.

But Zhao Jun did explain the steps, and at first glance it sounded quite plausible.

"So this is possible, sir. I think it will be fine."

Qingliu said firmly. She felt that what Zhao Jun thought was of course right, so she glanced at Tan Ben who was a little doubtful.

"If there is no determination to change, then Xincheng County will remain like this."

With Lu Jing's example, Zhao Jun felt that Tan Ben was neither good nor bad and was of no use.

"Yes, I will gather someone to do it right away."

Tan Ben was startled by the look Zhao Jun gave him just now, and nodded hurriedly to prepare to go down.

"Well, this is a big project. You can recruit more people and the county will provide the wages."

Of course, building terraces with manpower requires a lot of people, the construction period will not be short and the intensity should be very high.

"Sir, this salary, the county..."

Tan Ben didn't say anything, but his meaning was already very clear.

Where is the money in the county?

"If I say yes, then yes. Later, you can write an official document to the county magistrate's office and request the funds. Just say it was me who said it."

Zhao Jun didn't want to curse, but he was really angry with Tan Ben, so he had no choice but to hold his forehead and let him go.

"Sir, please have a drink of water." Qingliu brought a glass of water at the right time.
