The land of each family in Xiaoan Village was drawn by lot.
Wherever you catch it, that's where you catch it.
At that time, they were called a village, but in fact, except for dozens of families in Xiaoan Village, Qishan Prefecture, the rest of the people joined midway.
The village elders are thoughtful and considerate that while they need to stay together for warmth, fairness and justice are the most important thing.
Therefore, each family's land is scattered here and there, not neatly arranged.
Some families in the village also changed their land privately for the convenience of farming.
It can be like Yan Yuzhuo's family-based unit. Three households and five households form a small collective to cooperate in agriculture, animal husbandry and farming. They gather the human and animal power of each family to jointly cultivate fields, livestock breeding, fishing, hunting and picking, etc.
Combined with the form of comprehensive development, it took a long time for both Yan Laoer and Li Xuemei to digest it, not to mention whether the villagers could understand it.
"She should have been enrolled in the University of Agricultural Sciences from the beginning." Li Xuemei said suddenly.
Yan Laoer: "It's not that we don't have enough space for her in my hometown. Besides, you said that being a translator is better, speaking smaller languages is better, and there is less competition..."
Li Xuemei glared at him: "You don't know why there is no land in my hometown?"
Yan Laoer shrank his neck and did not dare to say anything.
He originally had land, but after his parents passed away, no one took care of the land in his hometown. His cousin offered to lend him the land to grow and give his family some food every year.
He thought, isn't this a good thing? Others are farming the land, and he has food to eat.
But later, I don’t know how it was settled, and the land fell into the name of his cousin. He went to Murakami to ask, and found that the procedures at his cousin’s house were complete and all were new. On the contrary, it was not easy to check the old background of his family. If he wanted to clarify the property rights
, and still have to file a lawsuit.
His wife had just given birth to a child at that time, so he lied and said that his cousin had given some money and the land had been transferred to his family.
For the money to transfer land, he tried hard to hide it for a long time. He and a few other traders moved around, getting up early to go to the wholesale market to stock goods, sneaking out to the night market at night, and squatting beside the construction site to sell lunch boxes, go to the market, practice stalls, and collect rags.
, selling vegetables, selling fruits...
In the end... I still didn't hide it.
This "transfer money" that was about to be collected, was decided by his wife to cash in at the store opposite her school.
Opened a stationery store.
He understood what his wife meant, so she let him stay under her nose to avoid being deceived again.
It can only be said that today's Yan Laoer is very humane and sophisticated, but the young and ignorant Yan Laoer is just as stupid as hell.
Yan Laoer quickly pretended to think seriously and said to his daughter:
"It's not enough to just plant the current land. You have to open up wasteland to expand planting, and then you have to raise cattle, sheep, chickens and rabbits, go into the mountains to hunt and collect herbs, and go down to the rivers to fish... My dear, there are only so many people in our village, Xizhou is not
Peace and stability, a fight may break out at any time, we still have to be on guard, even if we have three heads and six arms, we can't do so much work."
What he actually wants to say is, my daughter, why don’t you go to heaven?
He didn't dare to say it in front of his wife.
"There are definitely not enough people, so we have to recruit people!" Yan Yu said: "My uncle has long said that we need to recruit disaster victims from our hometown. There are many families in the disaster-stricken big houses who are having a hard time. The main reason is that our Guanzhou is far away and there are many people on the road.
It's not safe either, so they mostly go south. But as long as we open the official road between Qishan and Guanzhou, escort them all the way, feed them for a fee, and vigorously promote Guanzhou's registration policy, I believe some people will want to come.
of."
"Although the north can collect taxes once a year, the taxes are less. Our place is not as prosperous as the south, but our folk customs are simple and prices are low. You can tell by looking at the behavior of the Crown Princess. Everything is more expensive in the south.
Here, we are a living example, and I think you all don’t mind being used as a typical example for publicity, which is good for both Huju and our Xiao’an Village.”
"In an environment where manpower is the main labor force, population is of vital importance."
Yan Yu put on a sullen face and said seriously: "The long-term plan is to replenish the population from outside the country, mainly from our hometown in Qishan. In the short term, we can only rely on the quarry."
"Are you still thinking about the quarry?" Yan Laoer asked in surprise.
"Why don't you care about it?" Yan Yu said plausibly: "The imperial court exiled him to Guanzhou and didn't specify that he was going to be exiled to a quarry, so what's wrong with being exiled to Xiao'an Village?!" As long as the prince acquiesced, the master nodded.
"As the weather gets warmer, work will start at the quarry." Yan Laoer reminded.
Yan Yu quickly said: "We can use the Xizhou soldiers captured before. They are all strong laborers, no better than the old, weak, sick and children who were exiled."
"If you make this plan, you must consider safety issues. If someone escapes, we will be responsible." Li Xuemei suddenly said.
Yan Laoer hurriedly said: "What your mother said is that the people who came to our village in the past were all old and weak, and it was winter, so we were not afraid of people running away, but now I hear what you mean, you have a lot of people in our village.
The fence has not been put up yet, and we are busy with farming right now, and we can’t spare any manpower, so we can’t tie them up one by one with ropes.”
What's going on? It's so weird to watch.
The people who were exiled were very few who were extremely evil, and most of them were the family members of officials who had committed crimes.
Yan Yu came over with a smile, put her little arms around Yan Laoer's waist, and skillfully found a comfortable position with her little head, arching it.
"Then it's up to you, Dad! Isn't that camp at the edge of our village for you to use? You want to train new recruits. Hehe, that's great. You can arrange for people to patrol the camp and expand the scope. Dad, by the way, give it to us.
Let’s take a tour of the village and you’ll find everything!”
Yan Laoer was stunned. He straightened his daughter's head with his hands and looked at it carefully, "So that's what you had in mind!"
Why does this little brain work so well?
He looked at his mother, his eyes full of complexity.
At home, my daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law are all very smart, but he...is a little worried.
After becoming the seventh-level general flag, he had the excitement of organizing. In just one day, he was beaten by left and right uppercuts, leg sweeps, and a powerful opponent. At this moment, he was completely KO.
"It's actually easy to manage a prisoner who has a family." They had accumulated a lot of experience with the previous batches of people who had paid money to hire from the quarry.
"There are really stubborn people who won't change their ways. Dad, just take them to the military camp. Even if they can't run away, when there is a war, take them directly to the battlefield. Isn't that bad? Isn't it fierce? If you have the strength to attack the enemy."
Yan Yu talked a lot about how the Boy Scout rabbits are so good. At her request, the children have summarized a practical and effective method of raising rabbits. She thinks it should be promoted to let more rabbits be raised.
people benefit.
There are too many cattle and sheep in the village!
In order for them to eat grass, the village elders mobilized the whole village and even used a charcoal sales team to go to the outer city to find grass and buy bran. They really thought of all kinds of tricks.
"...At present, the number of cattle and sheep must be controlled within a certain range. Xiao'an Village must continuously store grass in spring, summer and autumn in order to keep as many cattle and sheep as possible."
Yan Yu: "So I think we can sell some cattle and sheep first to relieve the pressure of pasture, half work and half money. When we separated yesterday, I asked Brother Santie to take a message back to Grandpa Luo and the others. Let's go back to the village in the evening.
You can probably count how many cows, sheep, chickens and rabbits there are in the village..."
