He Jinshu said upon hearing this: "They are more receptive to people. They are more well-behaved when my husband and I hold them."
After hearing this, the county magistrate nodded.
After lunch, He Jinshu asked Grandpa He to chat with County Magistrate Feng and the others for a while, while he and Chen Chen took the children back to the house to coax them to sleep.
In the room, Chen Chen coaxed He Siyi to sleep while chatting quietly with He Jinshu: "Ashu, what is the county magistrate doing in our house?"
"What we did before worked." He Jinshu said lightly.
Chen Chen nodded upon hearing this, and then said, "Do you think he will vigorously develop Linshe County as you wish?"
"Since he has come to our house, he should have almost made up his mind and may need some final confirmation," said He Jinshu.
Chen Zhen nodded upon hearing this, and then said nothing more.
After coaxing his son to sleep, He Jinshu invited County Magistrate Feng and County Magistrate to go to the study together.
After the tea was served, He Jinshu took the lead in asking, "I wonder why the county magistrate and the county magistrate came to my house recently?"
Upon hearing this, the county magistrate said, "I heard that Wujia Village had a good harvest, so I came with the county magistrate to inspect it and take a look at the fertilization methods here."
After hearing this, He Jinshu nodded and said, "If you have any questions, you can ask me or Village Chief Wu.
In addition, this fertilization method is very effective in increasing grain production. I will write a detailed production method for the county magistrate later. You can teach this method to more people and help more people increase their grain income."
After hearing what He Jinshu said, County Magistrate Feng did not answer him for the time being. Instead, he asked, "I heard Mr. He say that he didn't have much hope for the imperial examination this time. If he really fails, what are his plans for the future?"
"Plans?" He Jinshu shook his head and said, "I don't have any plans. If I really can't pass the exam, I'll continue studying at home or find a college and take the exam again in three years.
Besides that, I help my husband with the family business, and also help Village Chief Wu and Village Chief Shen build the two villages, or research some more practical farm tools when I have time."
After hearing this, County Magistrate Feng pondered for a moment and then said, "If I report the method of fertilizing the fields and the rice transplanter to the court, would you be willing?"
"Of course I am willing," He Jinshu said, "but I hope the county magistrate can submit the report later, until this year's tax revenue is collected."
In previous years, because of the rush to plant rice, taxes were basically not paid to the county government until the end of July or the beginning of August. By the time the taxes were collected, it was almost mid-August. His exam was on August 20, and the results would usually be announced within 20 days after the exam.
It would take about a month to submit a memorial from Linshe County to Kyoto, which was almost the same time as the announcement of the results. If the memorial could be successfully submitted, it would be a good time to watch.
After hearing this, County Magistrate Feng vaguely guessed He Jinshu's intention, but he still couldn't grasp the key point, so he asked, "Why?"
"The next round of rice planting is about to begin. Your Excellency, shouldn't you first assign tasks to the towns in Linshe County and make the autumn harvest achievements more impressive?" He Jinshu said lightly.
After saying this, he continued, "There is no need to rush to seek credit now. Wait until the county magistrate has made arrangements for all the towns in Linshe County, and then report all the measures taken. I think this will make His Majesty look upon you more favorably than simply seeking credit.
