Chapter 674 Meeting Spirit
Yan Yu's latest planned farmland map was released.
The weather in Xiao'an Village is just like the weather, with cold passing and spring coming.
The vigorous land exchange operation began.
Yan Yu thought it would take a lot of talking, but he underestimated the degree of trust that the people of Xiao'an Village had in the Yan family.
No one came for any reason.
In addition to the somewhat chaotic process of changing land, people had to stay at the original land to wait for the handover. Everyone ran back and forth in the village, repeatedly determining where their new land was, where the boundaries were, and which houses it was next to.
I need to take a good walk around the new place.
Rather than pen and paper, farmers prefer to use their feet to familiarize themselves with and record their fields.
The land that Yan Yu did not give to his family was all connected together.
She wanted to be close to the water, but she was also worried that the water would rise one year, and she was reluctant to part with the training ground in the woodland that she had worked hard to build and the fruit saplings her family had planted.
Therefore, the Yan family's land is divided into two parts.
Half by the river, half by the woods.
"What are you going to do?" Yan Laoer asked.
The whole family of four is on the kang.
The little one sleeps while lying down in single clothes, and from time to time he has to kick the quilt with his hands and feet.
The remaining three gathered around the Kang table.
Yan Yu couldn't sit still because of the heat, "Dad, can you get some firewood out? This kang is too hot!"
Yan Laoer wiped his sweat and said, "It's a bit weird. It's my fault. It's only been a while since my hand didn't burn."
"You can see that our family makes a living by making charcoal. It's so bright and generous when burning!" Yan Yu exaggeratedly slapped her father.
"I don't want to burn charcoal. I've burned too many briquettes." Yan Laoer put on his clothes and went to the ground. He took his shoes and went outside to bring a basin of water and put it in the house.
"Where did our family get the briquettes?" Li Xuemei asked doubtfully.
She brought the briquettes at home, and she didn't bring them back in Yongning City.
"We haven't come back to stay for fear that we won't have enough heat, so Mrs. Luo poured half of the basket, Mrs. Zhang from the west of the village sent a dustpan, and our sister also prepared a lot. Hey, you said this, I pushed it for a long time I didn't push it out, so I kept it." Yan Laoer said, "I closed the courtyard door to prevent anyone from coming."
"I won't talk about our sister. I'm afraid that Sister-in-law Luo is getting close to us because she has to go to the palace as an errand for the Three Railways." Li Xuemei didn't understand for a moment and asked: "Then what's the reason for the Zhang family?"
Yan Yu turned her head and thought for a while, then laughed and said: "As soon as Brother Santie left, my uncle's position as the book boy became vacant. It was Brother Zhang's turn." She turned around and flipped through her small notebook in order. Draw a few names.
"The tough uncle and the smooth book boy, eh, eh, they have to be arranged." Yan Yu patted his forehead and said angrily: "That's a mistake. I should let my eldest brother take a few people with him when he leaves. It's rare to have an opportunity to go on a business trip at public expense. "
Yan Xiangheng was sent to Fengming to do the finishing work after the cold disaster.
I left a little hastily.
Except for Yan Laoer, the top scholar who gave up his career and abandoned literature to join the martial arts, this year's batch of students all have their own busy schedules and are running around the vast land of Guanzhou.
"I want to plant rice on the land by the river, together with the land in Grandma Rong's name. The land by the forest will be planted with wheat. The land cleared behind will be planted with potatoes, beans, soybeans and mung beans." Yan Yu I laughed so hard thinking about the tofu shop's accounting He said: "It is indeed profitable to make tofu. The tofu, soy milk and the remaining bean dregs are not wasted at all. Our family's bean dregs are all given to my aunt's family and Grandma Qi's family. Good guy, the mules of their two families are What the donkey eats is so smooth."
"Don't grow vegetables?" Yan Laoer asked.
"You still have to plant." Yan Yu has a lot of vegetable seeds in his hand. "Our land should be planted first. If someone in the village doesn't have enough seeds, I want to replace the vegetable seeds in my hand. In fact, It doesn’t matter who grows it, we want to eat it, buy it or exchange it, it’s all in the same village, so it’s convenient.”
Yan Yu thought clearly: "It doesn't matter if I can't replace it. I will slowly open up the land again. Anyway, the vegetables grow fast and I can harvest several crops a year."
"There are still vegetables stored in the cellar from last year. We are the only people in our family and we really can't finish them all." Li Xuemei said: "It's okay to exchange for some. Our vegetables are better than others. Many people have come to inquire about them." ”
Yan Laoer had no objection either.
"I plan to plant the seeds, peppers and tomatoes I bought on the platform shelves this time in our vegetable garden and take care of them carefully." Yan Yu held her face in her hands and smiled so hard that her teeth were exposed: "Wait for next year, the year after, the year after that. , Hahaha! Goodbye, Chili! I’m finally waiting for you! ”
"I thought about where it came from. I just said that dad bought it from a grain merchant from the south."
Yan Laoer shook his head: "No, what if the south doesn't have these two things? You have to plant them on a large scale in the future, and then pass them over, and compare the two sides. Okay, there is no such thing at all. It's better to say that it was found from Beirong. I don’t know what it is, I just know it’s a seed trying to grow.”
Yan Yu clapped his hands and said: "Yes, yes, just say it was from Beirong. Dad, you are so thoughtful. This is called death without proof, hehe!"
Yan Laoer also grinned.
The two men are facing each other hey hey hey.
…
The suitable day for farming according to Grandma Rong is four days from now.
Yan Laoer then said that he would like to say hello to the old farmers in Guanzhou, and that was the day.
The village elders are convinced.
Village Chief Luo came to Yan's house several times a day, for no other reason than to urge Yan Lao Er to leave quickly.
The waiter has held a meeting for them.
The conference conveyed a lot of spirit.
We work together on farming, cook together, take turns to provide rice, meat and vegetables, help each other with all kinds of work, feed the animals, etc. In short, you help me and I help you, and strive to finish planting each family's land in the shortest time.
Then, here comes the key point!
The Yan family will take the lead in reclaiming wasteland.
The second child has even picked a place, and he is the boss.
Although she and her mother are the only ones who can work in her family, her mother has to take care of the children, so she can only be counted as half. Mrs. Rong is indeed capable, but she has her own land and has to take care of the Yan family's housework. I'm afraid she can't handle it, but there are many families willing to work with her.
The three brothers of the Qi family are as strong as many strong laborers, not to mention the oxen of the two families, which are the richest in the village.
Whatever happens, they are afraid that someone will take the lead. If the second child didn't say that his family wanted to reclaim wasteland, they didn't think about it. Once he mentioned it, every family had ideas.
There are two difficulties.
One is the lack of seeds, and the other is that Yan Laoer has conscripted many people from the village, all of whom are able-bodied men. Even if there are livestock to replace them, it is still okay to plant the existing land, but it is not enough to open up wasteland.
The waiter has thought of it for them.
There are too many cattle and sheep in the village, and they worry about fodder every day.
Take the extra sheep away and sell them, and rent the cattle instead of selling them!
No money, only labor.
In this way, the people who rent the cattle get the cattle, and they get more people to use the cattle!
Oh my! This is a great thing that both sides are happy!
Waiter: Hey! I convey a few spirits of the meeting: plant the land, plant well, and plant well~~o(* ̄︶ ̄*)o~~
One update today, see you tomorrow~
