Heyin County has never been as lively as it is today. The rules for re-establishing the land of the Jiang family have involved a small number of rural families, and almost everyone is talking about it.

Li Zongxun Xu Ping once carefully discussed the scale of the farmers' cooperative. After considering various situations, the two finally reached a consensus that the scale should be small rather than large. In principle, five to ten households are a community, and raising a cattle together is the standard, and other farm tools are all equipped with this. Such a small organization can just help each other, and it is in line with the previous system of the ranks of the villages and does not conflict with the existing rural administrative levels at the level of the village.

The oldest rural organization should have the source of Zhou Dynasty, but it actually has the nature of mutual assistance and cooperation. However, the color of administrative management becomes stronger and stronger. The Liheting in the Qin and Han Dynasties should be considered the peak. The dynasties after that were basically dominated by Lihe Township, and the rise of local tyrants made the management system of Lihe Township also existed in name only.

When the Song Dynasty was established, Taizu once implemented the "management" system, abolished the township and changed it to management, and managed the labor service. However, this policy was abandoned halfway, and it was mainly based on the new affiliation areas in the south. At this time, it was actually a township, and the village and management coexisted.

The grassroots level is the small organizational autonomy of the cooperative, and the original management system of Lizheng, Township Secretary and Seniors continues to use, so that the impact is minimal and the effect can be achieved.

As for more advanced consumer cooperatives and supply and marketing cooperatives, the conditions are not yet mature, and they will not be suitable for launch until the commodity economy goes further. Xu Ping never mentioned it to Li Shen at all, so he naturally would not think about this aspect.

Xu Ping did not ask about the details of these matters, and his thoughts are now put on the exploration of the river.

Wang Yan hid that he had a memorial, but in fact, the core was to build the canal. After investigating these days, Xu Ping was already very sure that it was feasible to bring Luo to Bian.

Insufficient water volume is not enough to worry about. Luo River can intercept water. At worst, the boats in the Luo River do not enter the Yellow River and go directly to the new canal. Moreover, the water in the middle of the canal must be crossed, so that the water of the water can be incorporated into it. The original Sishui River channel is just used to discharge the water in the canal and control the water level of the canal. The area where the new canal passes is located between the Suoshui and the Yellow River. There are many swamps. These ponds can also be used to adjust the water level of the new canal after renovation.

In short, Xu Ping must be able to make this channel so that those who want to laugh at him will shut up.

Countless water birds fly over the mudflats on both sides of the Yellow River, accompanied by the rhythm of frogs in the pond under the sun, and looking at the blue sky and white clouds in the distance, all of this makes people feel refreshed.

Xu Ping rode on his horse and walked forward along the bank of the Yellow River, looking around Guangwu Mountain.

Liu Xiaoyi, who was beside him, suddenly said, "Monk, look at the people there! This place is far away from Heyin County. You can't get to Sishui County until it gets dark. It's very remote, how could anyone be there?"

Xu Ping looked up and said, "I think it's someone who wants to cross the river. There is Gubai Ferry less than ten miles ahead. There are the roads for several counties around him to cross the Yellow River."

Lu Fang on the other side said: "Those people stood there and did not move, not like pedestrians who were about to cross the river."

Xu Ping smiled and said, "There are more than a hundred soldiers with us. Are you still afraid that those people are robbers? No matter what they are! If you want to know who they are, go faster and go forward and see if it's just!"

After saying that, the horse reins led everyone to speed up the speed.

After only a cup of tea, I could see the faces of the few people standing there.

Liu Xiaoyi shouted: "Oh, it turns out it was Sun Fengnian, who stood there with his children, and didn't know what to do."

Xu Ping stopped the horse and ordered Liu Xiaoyi, "It seems that it is hard to say that the father and son are waiting for us there. Go and bring them over and ask what's wrong."

Liu Xiaoyi responded and flew toward him as soon as he lifted the reins of the horse.

In a short while, Sun Fengnian and his son were brought to Xu Ping's horse.

"The young father and son have met the county marquis." When he arrived in front of the horse, Sun Fengnian greeted Xu Ping.

Xu Ping said: "No need to be polite. I'm going to get off the horse because I'm running fast. Are you waiting for me here?"

"Yes, I heard that the marquis of the county left Heyin County today and specially brought Erlang and waited here."

"What's the matter waiting for me? Could it be that I told Judge Li Tong that he forgot to do it? In Bajiao Town that day, I promised you that I would stay in Heyin County. If you don't want to, I will definitely find a good place for you. Judge Li Tong replied to me, saying that your family doesn't want to relocate and wants to stay in Heyin County to live. Is there any such thing?"

Sun Fengnian said: "Report to the county marquis, there is something wrong with this. Judge Li Tong came to ask the young man specifically, saying that it was the county marquis' order."

"Oh, he's fine." Xu Ping nodded, "Then you'll wait for me today, but what's the difficulty?"

"No, the youngest family is good now. As in previous years, my family still rented the Jiang family's land and formed a club with several familiar families to raise a cow. The state exempted the tax this year and lived a life still. Moreover, Li Tong made the decision and reduced the rent. Like other places, we could get 60% of the land, and everything was fine. The youngest person took Erlang and waited here today to send the county marquis. If we hadn't met the county marquis on the way, our family could only beg all the way to Kaifeng Prefecture to make a living, how could it be as stable as it is now?"

Xu Ping smiled and said, "So that's it. You father and son are intent. We are officials and officials. We are responsible for reporting to the country and peace. You don't have to take this little thing seriously. You can live a good life in the future."

"Oh, that's the case, how can officials who really think about us, the common people, meet them at a leisurely occasion? The county marquis left, and there is nothing to give away at this time. We have a lot of sand and good yams, and the small ones have picked a bundle of good ones. The county marquis took them with them. It can be considered as the little people's wishes."

After saying that, Sun Erlang was asked to take a large bundle of yam to Xu Ping's horse.

Now is not the season for harvesting yams, and Xu Ping knows that this must be left by the villagers.

Seeing Sun Erlang coming forward, Xu Ping hurriedly dismounted, took the large bundle of yam in his hand, and said to Sun Fengnian: "If you have the will, I will leave it behind. These local products can be regarded as my visit to Heyin County."

As he said that, he handed the yam to Liu Xiaoyi beside him.

Turning around and looking at Sun Erlang in front of him, Xu Ping asked, "How old is this child this year?"

Sun Fengnian replied: "This year, the child of a poor family suffers nothing and looks smaller."
