After everyone has expectations for a better future, when Erya gathers people elsewhere for a meeting to talk about things, there are a lot fewer people who gossip and provoke right and wrong, and there are no meetings at all. The signing of the contract is smooth and smooth, which makes people feel incredible, let them press their handprints, and of course, because of the full supervision of Lizhen, they don't have to worry about being cheated or being cheated or something.

When Erya was checking what other valuable plants there were besides reeds, she heard a few old men chatting and saying that the reeds were not so big at first. It is because the flowers of the reeds can take root and grow when they are blown to the shore by the wind, and the reeds are very domineering, with strong vitality and super fecundity, gradually encroaching on the surrounding fertile fields. This is also the reason why the official registration is 9,000 mu, but the actual amount is more than 13,000 mu! In addition, the birds and wild ducks in the reeds often steal the ripe grain, so that the fertile fields around the reeds have become waste fields that they don't want to plant but can't sell.

Erya heard that they all had the intention to sell the surrounding fields, and the price was very low, so their minds were alive again. They all have a lot of silver tickets in their hands, but they don't have the opportunity to buy a large piece of land. It's a bit far from home, but it's the same if someone is arranged to manage it?! It's really better to buy all the fields around here, and then share them with the uncle and the second uncle!

They were willing to sell it for three taels of silver per acre, but Erya did not take advantage of the fire to rob, but gave a very fair price, five taels of silver per acre. Even all the towns that measured the land together and acted as intermediaries said that the Wang family was a real kind family. And Erya's real intention is to give them a reasonable price first, if they see these fields in the future and get a high income. If you have an unbalanced heart and want to make trouble, you don't have to be short of breath!

Because Erya wants to buy the paddy fields around the reeds, he also has the opportunity to swing the reeds around. As a result, she found that there were no river beaches or depressions in the surrounding area that caused the reeds to form. There isn't even a small river around, let alone a big river!

"Old man Lai! You don't have a river or a river here, how can there be such a large area of reeds? It's really weird! ”

Lizhen, who followed Old Man Lai, took Erya's question and replied: "There is a special record of this reed swing in our county annals!" It is said that after the establishment of the Tang Dynasty, there was a general who had great merit and did not want to be an official, and wanted to return to his hometown to farm. The ancestral home of this great general is here, just because of the war. The people fled in all directions, their houses were destroyed, and the people he sent back could not find the place he had said. The emperor at that time knew that the general's own home could no longer be found. I gave him all the places around him that had a little impression of the great general.

The great general took possession of this great land, and brought back with great rewards. I know that our large land, there are no rivers, and we basically rely on the rain of the sky. Although there is a lot of rain in our area. There is rarely a time when there is a shortage of water. However, the general built a large reservoir in the middle of his family's large field for irrigation and water storage. The descendants of his family have been here for hundreds of years, until the alien tribe conquered this place, and then fled to the south, and until now I have not heard of the descendants of this great general returning.

This reed swing also began to form when the alien race conquered this place. At that time, because of the war, people were panicked, and no one had the heart to take care of the reservoir. Later, an alien dynasty was established, but the alien people could not farm. It is very vicious to the Han people who can farm, and kills people at every turn. So that there are fewer people here, and there are more people. Nine out of ten acres of this land are barren there, and this reed prodigal is even more uncared for. In our generation, we are also powerless, and we can't think of a good way to cure it, so we can only watch this reed expand in a few years.

Let's be honest! Although there is no land in my family, but this good land has become like this, and it is heartbreaking! ”

It turns out that this reed swing is not naturally formed, so it's a pity, tens of thousands of acres of fertile land! How many people have to be fed!

The paddy fields around the reeds will dig a ditch on the ridge to connect the reeds, and the soil of a shovel can cut the connection between the two, and it is really convenient for irrigation or drainage. It's just that Erya intuitively feels wrong, this kind of water conservancy definitely has more advantages than disadvantages, and she can't help but ask the doubts in her heart: "If it rains heavily in summer, will this reed swing flood into the field in reverse?" ”

Old Man Lai's field is on the edge of the reeds, of course he knows best. He immediately replied, "Yes!" Sometimes the rainstorm season comes early, and the rice is often flooded before the early rice is harvested. If the rainstorm season comes late and the early rice has already been harvested, it will have no effect. On the contrary, you can also pick up a lot of fish and shrimp in the field! ”

"Is there a lot of this kind of backfilling? Is it every year, or only once every few years? ”

"Oops! Every year, several times a year. However, when it is large, it will flood the rice, and when it is small, the water will be level with the ridges. However, it has no effect on the crops, and I am afraid that the fertilizer that has just been sprinkled on the field will be wasted. ”

Dizzy! If this is poured every year, then the governance of this backfilling is an urgent matter, no matter how big or small, it is also harmful!

"Oops! That's right! Lai, old man! Your field is leaning on the reeds, and the bamboo net is woven a little higher, otherwise the loach will run into the reeds against the current! ”

"Thank you, Mrs. Wang! We also thought of it when we were blocking the bamboo net on the ridge, and then we made up another one and added it when the rainstorm came. ”

"Hmmm! It's good to be prepared! I have to think about how to solve this backflow! ”

This is a really nerve-wracking thing, there is no river that can drain here, there is not even a ditch to connect the river, which is a big problem! Although the terrain here is flat, the water conservancy is really poor.

At present, there are two original methods that Erya can think of: one is to clear the silt, and the second is to raise the embankment. And these two are quite large projects, which are different from the small water conservancy projects that her family used to have. However, no matter how difficult things are, as long as they have a direction, they can be done. Erya has a direction in her heart. I put this matter aside for the time being and concentrated on buying land. When this side is solid, I will think about the governance of the backwater.

She was busy measuring the area and driving the boundary of the pile with the big guys here. Xiaohu hurried home to get the money, and Dahong and Xiangzi heard that there was also a field bought for their family, so they also followed with silver tickets.

The brothers of the Wang family took the villagers who sold the land to handle the transfer and registration of the land deed in the county, and also exchanged the cash and handed it over to them. In the evening, in order to buy so much fertile land, the brothers happily drank wine at Lai's house while thinking about how to make better use of these paddy fields, but the villagers who finally got rid of the abandoned fields were nervous and couldn't sleep.

"You say! Doesn't this Wang family know that we can't plant this field! Otherwise, how could they be willing to spend so much money to buy so much land? ”

"Who says you don't know?! When people buy land. Ask more than I know! Since people dare to give more money to buy our fields, maybe there is a way to cure it! You don't care so much. It's all sold, and you still want to be kind enough to return the money to others?! ”

"Not really! I'm just worried that this Wang family won't regret it when the time comes, saying that we cheated them! This is not implemented in my heart, and I am ashamed of it! ”

"You don't have to worry about this! At that time, someone told the girl in person. What's going on with this field. We only need three taels of silver per acre. It was the girl herself who said that she would give five taels of silver per acre, and we didn't maliciously cheat others. ”

"Hey! In that case, I can get a good night's sleep! ”

"Sleep in peace! Although we are a bit like some people say that we are shallow-eyed, we are not the wicked people who are abducted and deceived, and we will not do the things that make people scold and lack morality behind their backs. We have discussed it, and the Wang family will always need help in the future, and when the time comes, everyone will reach out to help, and we can repay this favor a little bit! ”

"Hey! You're doing the right thing. Anyway, this rich man is a kind man. If you really want to meet the rich and unkind, we can only admit it! ”

"Hmmm! I'm sleepy, I won't play with you! ”

“”

After all the land deeds were rewritten into their Wang family, Erya divided the fields into two or three hundred acres. This paddy field was bought along the reeds, and it was a long strip, with a width of about ten zhang and a narrow one of only four or five zhang. If you want to divide five or six hundred acres into a group like Liu Jialing, it is not possible. Only one group can manage the fields within a few miles, so that anything can be reported and dealt with as soon as possible. Together with the fields of the eldest uncle and the second uncle's family, there are a total of fifteen groups. The largest group has 7 or 8 people, and the largest group has 14 or 5 people.

Then for each group, the selection of long-term workers and team leaders is also simple: first of all, the family has no half of the industry and has no place to live, the second is the family with many children in the family, and the third is the family who bought their land. Among these people, they all look at character first, and then physical strength and talent. After all, even if she can't do the work, she will hire short-term workers again, and she will not force long-term workers to work tiringly, so she puts her character in front of her physical strength.

As for how to choose people, how to arrange, and how to choose the leader and deputy team leader, these are all familiar to Erya. Those Li Zhen and the elected long-term workers saw that all the men of the Wang family were on one side, and they took it for granted that women were the directors. They were so shocked that they almost broke their big teeth!

As a result, these two women also became legendary figures in the reeded township that later became famous in the surrounding state capitals. It really fulfilled the saying that 'foreign monks are famous'!

After the long-term engineer and the principal and deputy team leaders have been determined, Erya is not in a hurry to arrange how to maximize the benefits of these paddy fields, and they are still continuing their previous practice and planting seedlings and rice for the time being.

Now that there are few people in the fields, of course they can't rely on their own shovels to plough the land like they used to. Erya prepared three to six large buffaloes and a complete set of configurations for each group, and the necessary farm tools were equipped.

Although everything has been arranged, the main family still has to leave someone here to deal with some unexpected things. It's just that Dahong and Xiangzi still have to go back to build a house, and they go for a while, and Master Cha takes care of them. But after a long time, Master Cha should be too busy, after all, Master Cha has to take care of too many things, and it is also very important, so he can't be distracted or distracted. Er Ya also has to go back, the family has already sent a message to Erya, and there are some things that only Er Ya can solve. Therefore, the only one who can stay is Xiaohu! Besides, Xiaohu has also been in Liujialing for a while, and it shouldn't be difficult to manage these people well. (To be continued......)
