Cow plowing seems to be a small matter, but it is related to the major matter of eating. "Food is the most important thing for the people", and eating is the greatest. In the Warring States Period, productivity was low and grain output was not high. Trying to improve grain output and let the Chinese people have food to eat is the top priority. Qin did a very good job in this regard. First, it was to promote ox plowing, which could save a lot of manpower. You should know that in the Warring States Period, manpower was an extremely scarce resource, and if you could save money, you had to save money.

Another way, Qin's visionary move was to use limited iron in agricultural production rather than to arm the army. Iron was also scarce at that time and was very expensive. Qin used iron to build agricultural tools and improve production efficiency. This vision was amazing.

It is precisely because of these powerful measures that the people of the country have food to eat, and the Qin State is rich and admiring the six countries in Shandong.

The Qin people's words were a bit twitching, which was not very nice, but Qin Yiren was not angry, but instead alerted himself in his heart. If he wanted to become the King of Qin, he had to have a comprehensive understanding of Qin and understand the customs and customs of Qin. Otherwise, how could he say that he would govern it?

At this point, the ex-girl could not give him much help because he didn't understand the national conditions of Qin and had to rely on himself.

"I've been taught." Qin Yiren clasped his fists and bowed.

"If you want to be an official in Qin, you have to understand the national conditions of Qin. Let me tell you that the national conditions of Qin are completely different from the six Shandong countries, and you have to put in some effort." The Qin man smiled again.

"Murazhi, people are coming from the county." At this moment, a 16 or 17-year-old boy trotted over to report.

"A person is coming from the county. Don't look around. Hurry up and drive the cows and let them test them, and it will be fine." The Qin man was the clan leader and spoke loudly.

As soon as he finished his order, he went to drive the cattle and did not welcome the people from the county.

"This... he isn't he afraid that these officials will make things difficult for him?" Zhao Ji saw it and blinked her charming eyes, and was very surprised.

"Yes." Qin Yiren thought so too.

People's feelings and worldly styles are indispensable. If there is a person in Shandong, if there is a county, the small village will only be able to be curled up, so how can he walk away like he does?

"I told you that to understand the national conditions of Qin, don't look at Qin from the old eyes of Shandong." The village chief's earlobe was very good, and he actually heard it. He stopped, turned around and explained to Qin Yiren, and said, "This is Qin. There is no need to look at people's faces. Just obey the laws of Shang Jun. People from the county come to do things, not to please, and we will not welcome them. Don't say people from the county come to the state, even people from the state government, we will also deal with it."

The government is the imperial court and the highest level of Qin.

Qin Yiren opened his eyes wide and looked at the village. Seeing that he was speaking very seriously and there was no falsehood, he had to believe it.

"Is this Qin?" Zhao Ji was very surprised.

"We will prepare some hot tea for them at most." Murama stroked his forehead, as if he remembered something, and said, "Oh, bring the hot tea and prepare it for them."

He ordered, he went to drive the cattle by himself. Not long after, he drove a fat and strong cow back.

"Wow. What a fat cow!" Zhao Ji's eyes widened and she wandered around the cow.

Qin Yiren was also surprised. This cow was really great. It was fat and strong, with smooth fur, like satin. You don’t have to think about it. Muramasa has worked hard on this cow.

Muramasa was very intimate with the cow. He scratched the cow with his hands, pulled his ears, and pressed his eyes lightly. The cow was very happy and did not live on Muramasasa.

"The same is true there." Lu Jujian's eyes were not enough. When he looked around, he saw that there were so many cows, and he couldn't be intimate with the cow owner.

Look at their appearance, this is not a human or a cow, a brother or a relative.

"The Qin people are really willing to work hard on raising cattle!" Qin Yiren saw it and praised it in his heart.

A sound of hoof steps sounded, and four people rode their horses and rode their horses. This was the person from the county, and the leader was a county chief, who was about thirty years old.

The four of them flew off their horses, walked quickly, came to the tea, picked up the tea, drank it dry with big mouthfuls, and said, "Good tea! Tighten thirst!"

The four were drinking tea. The clan and the others just watched from afar, and did not surround themselves up and approached them. They didn't even say a word of flattery, as if it was natural for the four of them to arrive.

These four people were not surprised. They put down the teacup, crossed their sleeves, wiped the water stains on their mouths, and said, "Your cows are well raised. But it's not enough to raise them well, it's better than last year. Have you done your best and done your best? We'll know once you check it out."

A follower opened a bag, and it was full of bamboo slips. The leading county chief picked up a bundle of bamboo slips and thought, "Zou Hei Niu..." A series of data about the cows was read out by him. How long is the cows, how tall is the cows, and what disease have they had... Remember clearly, clearly.

"Experience!" County Cao finished his thoughts and ordered.

Among the people who came, there was a veterinarian who immediately stepped forward and checked around a fat cow for a while, saying, "It's slightly better than last year! No reward or punishment."

"Sir Xie." Zou Heiniu was a strong and dark man. He let out a long sigh, crossed his sleeves to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead, smiled, and said, "I was worried for a while, I thought it was worse, so I had to eat a whip."

"Haha!" A loud laughter sounded, from the mouth of the Qin people.

In Qin, oxen plowing can only be better every year. If this year is not as good as last year, then wait to eat a whip. Every time the ox test is a tense day for the Qin people.

"Next..." County Chief picked up a bundle of bamboo slips and started chanting loudly.

The Qin people drove the cattle to check one by one.

"This cow has lost weight." The veterinarian stopped his eyes on a cow and looked carefully: "I've been sick."

"Adults have good eyesight, and they are really sick, so they are more sensible." The cow master's face turned bitter.

The county cavalry waved his hand and said, "Law Enforcement Officer."

A very cold county official stepped forward, looked at the cattle owner, and said, "Do you remember the ten methods of raising cattle?"

The Qin law in Shandong is said to be harsh, but that is actually a misunderstanding. The Qin law is perfect and forms a complete system, and various things have specific regulations. For example, raising cattle, Qin not only uses the law to protect the ox, but also summarizes the techniques of raising cattle into some technical rules for guidance and let the Qin people remember it.

Not only raising cattle, but also growing crops, Qin also has specific rules. Modern archaeology has discovered this document, which has very specific records. It is still amazing to look at it from a modern perspective.

"Remember, remember." The cow master hurriedly replied.

"Since you remember the ten methods of raising cattle, why can't you find out the condition in advance? This is your sin, ten whip." The law enforcement officer raised his throat and shouted: "Are you convinced?"

"I'm convinced." The cow owner lifted up his clothes and exposed his back.

The law enforcement officer took out a thick whip, flapped his wrist and a crisp sound. It was obvious that he had hit people a lot.

"Papapapapapapapa!" The whip kept whipping down and hit the cow owner's back. Strips of whip appeared, with blood stains on it.

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

"One, two, three...eighty and ninety." The law enforcement officer counted while beating, and stopped immediately as soon as the ten whips arrived.

"Hiss!" The cow master sucked the cold air, and his teeth were grinning.

Murata immediately came up with a golden sore medicine and applied it to the cow owner, saying, "If you take a whip this year, remember it in your heart and don't neglect it anymore."

"I must remember, I must remember." The cow master hurriedly said.

Soon, the cow test was over, and only this cow owner ate the whip.

The county chief collected the bamboo slips and said, "It's the cold winter now, so don't think you have nothing to do. After winter, it's spring. You must be prepared for spring plowing. You can make more firewood, renovate your house, and finish the idle things in winter as much as possible."

Qin Yiren was surprised when he heard this.

The officials of Qin State were "leniency" enough, and even such things were in charge. It makes sense to think about it. The Warring States Period was a time of great struggle, and manpower was limited. We must use manpower to the greatest extent and do the idle things in winter. In spring, we can focus on growing crops.

"Ah! The officials of Qin are really..." Zhao Ji was also surprised when she encountered such a thing.

If they were in Shandong, the officials would only bully the people of the country and would not care about these matters. Even if the people of the country and the people had no food to eat, they would not care about them.

This was enough to surprise Qin Yiren, but there was something that surprised him even more. The county cavalry said: "There are five Ding Zhuang in your village who are about to be crowned. Can their marriage be arranged?"

"Do you care about marriage?" Zhao Ji opened her mouth in surprise and couldn't close it for a long time.

"Mrs. I don't know anything. According to Qin law, if an adult man fails to get married, he will be punished! A woman who has not yet got married will be punished!" Meng Zhao explained to her with a smile.

In the Warring States Period, the most scarce resource was not gold, silver, treasure, food, or iron, but human resources. Think about it, when the princes fought, there was no war in which year and month? Innumerable casualties, the population became a big problem.

During Shang Yang's reform, marriage was written into Qin law. Those who had not yet gotten married at the age of marriage should be punished. The reason why he did this was to increase the population.

After all, only with people can we have money, food, army, and do more.

If there is no one, there is nothing.

However, this law became a clear proof of the tyranny of Qin and was verbally criticized by countless descendants.

"I'm just organizing it. Don't worry, sir, I won't violate Qin's law." Cun Zheng hurriedly replied.

"That's good." The county cavalry nodded and said, "I'll come here today. In addition to testing cows, there is another thing, that is, check your residence, whether there are any messes, whether there are any unswept, and whether they are not cleaned, like pigpens and doghouses. Let's go and take a look."

"This is also in trouble?" Lu Jujian stared at the boss with his eyes wide open, and was surprised.

"This is Qin State, not the dirty place in Shandong." Meng Zhao knocked on his head and said, "The Qin State's residence is bright. Only with a good residence can one have a good body. Do you think it is the pigpen where you, a little slave, live?"

"Haha!" Magai and Fan Tong laughed in unison, making fun of Lu Jujian.

"Not bad! Not bad!" Qin Yiren emphasized the key point and praised it very much.
