Chapter 778 The people are very angry(2/2)

"Prime Minister, you really love the people as much as your son." Li Zheng sighed.

Xi Yu shook his head slightly.

"It is the fault of our officials who suffer. I will find a way to improve the status quo."

Li Zheng nodded repeatedly.

"Sir, it is a blessing for our entire village to have this heart. I will definitely help you with all my strength."

Ouyang Lian watched from the side, and admired Xi Yu even more.

Xi Yu looked at Li Zheng and asked seriously: "Li Zheng, you know the situation in the village the most. What do you think is the most urgent problem to be solved at the moment?"

Li Zheng pondered for a moment and said, "Sir, the land in this village is barren, and the crops have always been bad, so it is really difficult for the people to make a living."

Xi Yu frowned and thought about a solution in his mind.

"The land issue is the key, and we have to find ways to increase our food production."

Li was watching Xi Yu's focused expression.

There was a light flashing in Xi Yu's eyes, and he excitedly began to tell Ouyang Lianhe and Li about the greenhouse.

"Do you know? There is a way to build a shed with special materials so that crops can be grown in cold weather and can also grow faster and better."

Ouyang Lian frowned, scratched his head, and felt full of doubt.

"Prime Minister, what kind of novelty is this? I have never heard of it. You can grow crops with a shed? Is this possible?"

Li Zheng was also confused. He lived in the village for most of his life, and what he knew were farming methods passed down from his ancestors.

"Sir, this greenhouse sounds amazing, but what should I do? I really can't figure it out." He said cautiously, afraid that his ignorance would offend Xi Yu.

Xi Yu looked at them confused and understood that this idea was too novel for them.

He was thinking in his mind how to explain it more clearly.

"It's like building a house for crops. This house can keep warm and keep crops from being affected by cold weather. We can use bamboo as brackets, and then use some thick cloth or oil paper to make the roof and walls of the roof." Xi Yu said while gesturing the shape of the greenhouse with his hands.

Ouyang Lian tried hard to imagine the scene described by Xi Yu, but his mind was still in a mess.

"Can this really make the crops grow well? How much does it cost?" he asked worriedly.

Li Zheng also nodded in agreement. He thought to himself that the village was already poor, so there was no extra money to build this greenhouse.

Xi Yu saw their concerns and said patiently: "Some investment may be required in the early stage, but once successful, the grain output will be greatly improved, and everyone will no longer have to go hungry in the future. We can find ways to raise materials together, and we can also ask the villagers to help, with more people and more power."

Ouyang Lian and Li Zheng heard this, although they were still half-believing and half-doubted, when they saw Xi Yu's firm eyes, they couldn't help but have a little expectation for this greenhouse.

Xi Yu said: "I will order taxes from other places to support this place. At present, we will first solve the urgent problem, and then we will discuss development strategies in the long term."

Just as I heard it, tears suddenly appeared in my eyes, my lips trembled slightly, and I was about to kneel down and salute again.

Xi Yu hurriedly supported him.

Li Zheng was so excited that his voice was choked: "Sir, you have saved the whole village of our family. We have been struggling on the verge of food and clothing. Your move is like a bright light in the dark."

Xi Yu frowned slightly and said with a serious and sincere look on his face: "Li Zheng, this is what I should do. I have no choice but to pay attention to the people's suffering."

Ouyang Lian watched from the side, and was full of admiration for Xi Yu.

He knew very well that it was not easy to mobilize taxes from other places, and it required huge pressure and many tedious matters, but Xi Yu made this decision for the sake of the people without hesitation.

Li Zheng calmed down his emotions and said, "Prime Minister, we will definitely cooperate well and will never let you down."

Xi Yu nodded with a smile: "I believe everyone. As long as we work together, we will definitely make the village better."

At this time, the dilapidated house seemed to be full of hope, and the wind outside seemed to be no longer so cold.

Several farmers who participated in the trouble during the day sat together, and the candlelight swayed, reflecting their faces full of doubt and uneasiness.

They gathered in a dim home called Zai Tianlong.

A young farmer took the lead in breaking the silence and frowned and said, "You said, is that man claiming to be the prime minister, really? Could it be a fake?"

An old man next to him whispered a sip of dry tobacco and said slowly: "But they came out with the token."

An impatient man answered immediately.

"Tokens may also be faked. And we don't know what tokens are true or false at all."

At this time, a more calm person in the corner spoke.

"But if this is the case, what exactly are you going to do when you come here as a prime minister?"

Everyone fell into deep thought, and the room was so quiet that only the occasional crackling of candlelight could be heard.

Lei Tianlong touched his chin, pondered for a moment and said, "If it is fake, we can make great contributions. It is better to go to Fangjun to report tomorrow."

The others nodded after hearing this, thinking that this was a feasible solution.

A woman said worriedly: "What if they are really prime ministers? Will we be punished?"

Lei Tianlong frowned: "If he was really the prime minister, he would not care about us. Moreover, they said they wanted to solve our problem, so we were just asking for the truth."

After hearing this, everyone felt it made sense, so they began to whisper to discuss the specific matters of going to Fangjun tomorrow, and they were both expectant and a little nervous.

Lei Tianlong stood up.

"I'll go to Fangjuncheng to report the news, this is the best way at present."

An old man stroked his beard and said slowly: "Tianlong, the journey here is difficult and dangerous, so you should be more careful.

"Lei Tianlong solemnly saluted the old man.

"Don't worry, uncle, I will definitely live up to my mission."

After everyone dispersed, Lei Tianlong stood there, thinking about tomorrow's itinerary, but heard a burst of rapid footsteps coming from behind. He turned around and saw his woman walking over with anger on his face.

Her brows frowned, her lips tightly pursed, and her eyes were full of dissatisfaction.

"Why do you have to go to the county town? Can't you let others go?" Her voice was filled with a little resentment.
