??Bai Jiaxuan said he wanted to build an ancestral temple and sent his family''s grain to the city to sell it.
But after he came back, he did not build the ancestral hall. Instead, he and his newly hired long-term worker Ma Liuer planted an unknown seed in the ground.
?Before planting, they plowed the land five times and harrowed it three times to make the entire land flat and loose, and then sprinkled the precious seeds brought back from the city.
?And their method of intensive farming naturally surprised the villagers, who asked curiously, "Jiaxuan, what the **** is this thing like yours? Why is it so valuable?"
“It’s medicinal materials.” Bai Jiaxuan explained.
“Medicinal materials?! What medicinal materials?” the villagers asked curiously.
?But Bai Jiaxuan has already shut his mouth and refuses to say another word.
When the villagers saw this, they became more and more curious.
They secretly dug out the seeds that Bai Jiaxuan had planted in the ground and looked at them curiously. They found that they could not identify the seeds, which were so small that they were as small as sesame seeds.
?However, they believed that Bai Jiaxuan would not be aimless, and what he planted must be no small matter.
…
“Hei Wa, what do you think your Uncle Jiaxuan will be able to grow?” Lu San asked curiously.
“The seeds are poisonous.” Xiang Nan replied directly.
“Poison?” Lu San was a little confused.
“It’s Yingli.” Xiang Nan explained.
Lu San was stunned for a moment.
?Even though he has no experience, he also knows that the thing is harmful to people. It is common to hear people smoking the thing within a few dozen miles, and they have lost their entire family and scattered their wives and children.
I didn’t expect Bai Jiaxuan to bring something so poisonous to Yuan Shang.
"Oh, why did he grow that thing? It can harm people." Zhang Fenglan was surprised when she heard this, "There used to be a rich family in our village, and unfortunately, his son smoked this thing. As a result, within two years, the family All the properties, land, mules and horses were sold.
He himself ended up becoming a beggar. He had nowhere to go in the winter, so he hid under a bridge to sleep. As a result, he froze to death. There is no cemetery even after death, just let wild dogs carry it away.
People in our village said that it would be better if he didn''t smoke that thing, because it was the thing that harmed him. Oops, how can the patriarch grow something like that? "
“The desire for profit leads to greed.” Xiang Nan curled his lips and said, he disapproved of this matter ten thousand times.
He knows that this thing is harmful to people. It''s just that greed is human nature. Even if he is the best in martial arts, he still can''t compete with people''s hearts.
?Even if he stops Bai Jiaxuan''s race, he can''t stop other races. And as long as one person makes a fortune from this thing, others will immediately follow suit.
It is said in the original novel "White Deer Plain" that from the north of Xi''an City, the entire Guanzhong Plain is full of this poisonous flower. On every auspicious day, drug dealers occupy the entire street, making it very lively and prosperous.
It can be seen from this that the scale of its cultivation is large and there are many farmers involved in the cultivation.
In pursuit of yield, the people used the best land to grow poisonous flowers. They only used the broken land to grow wheat, corn, and millet. As a result, after a drought, an extremely serious famine broke out in the northwest region, killing more than two million people.
Not to mention how many people would be harmed if those poisons slipped out.
“Can we stop him from planting?” Lu San asked.
"I can''t stop it. Even if I can stop Uncle Jiaxuan, can I stop other people? After all, I haven''t become a **** yet." Xiang Nan waved his hand.
The matter of controlling poisons is not something he can do alone. There must be a strong government, a strong armed force, and overwhelming and persistent propaganda. He obviously can''t do it now.
??And the book also said that the common people planted it, and a large part of the reason was due to the instructions of the warlords. In order to raise funds, they asked people to grow this thing.
In the play, after Mr. Zhu plowed away the smoke seedlings in Bailuyuan, it seemed that there was no such poison in Bailuyuan anymore.
But actually the book says that the next year, the new county magistrate dismissed Mr. Zhu from his position as "anti-smoking commissioner". Then the little white, pink, and red flowers bloomed all over the plain again, leaving only Mr. Zhu sighing.
Lu San couldn''t help but sigh when he saw him saying this.
"I''m telling you, no matter what the people in the village do, our family will never allow that thing to exist." Xiang Nan warned, "Otherwise, don''t blame me for not caring about family ties."
Lu San and Zhang Fenglan both nodded when they heard this.
…
While Bai Jiaxuan was busy tending his poisonous fields, Lu Zilin also went to the county to participate in training on the recommendation of Tian Fuxian. When he returned to the village, he brought back a card with the words "Zishui County Bailucang No. 1 Security Center" engraved on it. Wooden sign board.
?At once it attracted the attention of the whole village, and everyone was talking about what this shelter was. It''s just that everyone has little knowledge and no one understands.
Subsequently, Lu Zilin’s shelter was officially opened, and Xiang Nan and Lu San were invited to watch the ceremony.
After all, he and his son are now well-known figures in Bailuyuan. In terms of family wealth, reputation, and status, they even surpass the Bailu family.
?However, Xiang Nan declined the invitation, "I am a Taoist and I am not involved in worldly things."
?He didn''t want to get involved in Lu Zilin''s troubles, let alone carry his sedan chair.
Because he knew that Lu Zilin was not a good person.
When he was in charge of the township contract, he collected more food and money from the people every year, and embezzled a lot of oil and water; he deceived and raped Tian Xiao''e, and had affairs with many women in the original family, and produced dozens of illegitimate children; he He set up a bet on the original land to lend money to the people; he instigated Tian Xiao''e to seduce Bai Xiaowen, and also deliberately set traps to frame Bai Jiaxuan, Goudan''er and others.
It can be said that this person is bad to the core, and Xiang Nan naturally deals with this kind of person.
Xiang Nan couldn''t be moved when the visitor saw him, so he had to go back in despair.
“Hei Wa, what is a shelter?” Lu San asked curiously.
“They are the tax collecting yamen.” Xiang Nanyan explained concisely and concisely, “When the time comes, the court will point at them if it wants to collect taxes.”
“So that’s what he did, bah!” Lu San couldn’t help but spat after hearing this, “He, Lu Zilin, is good at doing this kind of bad thing.”
How can a person who reaches out to the common people be a good person? He is the first to look down upon him.
"Okay, we don''t want to see him, but don''t recruit him either. Let''s live our lives honestly." Xiang Nan waved his hand.
It is better to mess with a gentleman than a villain. Lu Zilin is a real villain. You can get close to this kind of person, you can distance yourself from him, but you can''t offend him.
Because this kind of person is thinking about how to harm others all day long. After offending him, you must always be on guard against being plotted by him.
It is said that one can commit a thief for a thousand days, but there is no one who can guard against a thief for a thousand days. Because as long as he slacks off, as long as he seizes the opportunity, he will succeed.
??This is the case for Bai Jiaxuan. In terms of his mind, he is no better than Lu Zilin, and Lu Zilin can''t take advantage of him. But Lu Zilin still took advantage of him not paying attention and plotted against Bai Xiaowen.
That’s what’s disgusting about this kind of person.
