After this spring ploughing, Gu Xinyu learned that the low productivity led to the reduction of labor efficiency.

And this probability also made it almost impossible for the agriculture of the Zhou Dynasty to turn over in a short period of time.

Therefore, with the help of external forces, it is imperative.

Although Zhou Muhan said that the border trade with Beichen Country will not be opened for the time being, Gu Xinyu must also prepare in advance, after the opening, she will exchange a large number of things that Beichen people like for what she wants.

And I heard that the grassland people love to drink, especially the strong soju.

When Shi Bo develops purified wine, even if there is no grain, a large amount of strong wine will be produced.

Open the way with wine, and you will definitely be invincible.

Although Gu Xinyu thought a lot, it was just a matter of thought.

"That's great, I'll find the right place tomorrow." Lu Bo was even more jubilant, he already had such thoughts, but the work at hand had not been completed, and it was not good to think about anything else, lest the master think that he had not kept his duty.

Now with the instructions of the young lady, Lu Bo was full of confidence, and he had a faint idea in his heart that he wanted to compete with the farm.

"Lu Bo, if you have any needs, just tell Uncle Wang, there is not much idle land in Zhuangzi now, but there is a lot of wasteland nearby, we can hire people to open up the wasteland, so this matter is done urgently, let's try to succeed in transplanting in the autumn!"

"Don't worry, young lady, the transplant will definitely be successful in the fall!"

Lu Bo was beaming with joy and confidence.

Maybe it's because there are too many things that don't have them, so a new industry will be planned unconsciously.

Gu Xinyu looked at the surrounding environment, it is indeed good to build an orchard, not to mention fruitful, just to say that the spring flowers are full of flowers, which are pleasing to the eye.

However, the conditions here are not as short as those in the Central Plains, and the frost-free period is too short, which is not conducive to the growth and development of fruit trees.

But looking at Lu Bo's eagerness to try, Gu Xinyu decided not to break his enthusiasm.

Anyway, in the northern land, the most important thing is land, of course, this land is raw land, and it has not been developed.

Gu Xinyu knew that there was almost no land buying and selling in Rongcheng at present, and almost everything that could be bought was bought by himself.

The rest is uncultivated wasteland.

The concept of the people's land reclamation and the army's land reclamation is different, the former has not yet issued relevant provisions, but Gu Xinyu's letter to his father has already made this matter clear, hoping to encourage more land reclamation, and then mobilize some areas with less land and more people to settle in the three northern cities, which can be announced to the world, and the imperial court will give some preferential policies.

No matter how rich it is, there are poor people and beggars.

I just don't know if people in this era will accept this.

After all, they advocate that their homeland is inseparable.

"Young lady, you're tired of a day, go back to Zhuangzi." Chunmei reminded next to her, although she likes to hang out with Gu Xinyu, she feels that the young lady seems to be very tired.

"No, let's go and have a look at the potato field."

Gu Xinyu looked at the sky and knew that the time to go back for a short rest would definitely not be short, and if he did that, he wouldn't be able to sleep at night.

The long night is the truest portrayal of this era, and many families begin to rest as soon as it gets dark.

Gu Xinyu is not used to it until now, Zhou Muhan didn't have these feelings when he was there, there are too many things that the two of them can do together, and sometimes, they feel that it is so early in the morning.

Of course, don't tell the girls about these thoughts.

"Young lady, are the potatoes delicious? Have you ever eaten it? Chun Yuan asked curiously.

"It's delicious, of course I haven't eaten it, I saw it in a book." Gu Xinyu almost blurted out, but fortunately, he reacted quickly and took back the conversation in time.

The acre of potatoes was very close to Zhuangzi, and soon several people walked there, and saw a man in the field from a distance, bending over and waving a hoe.

Looking at the figure, it seems to be Du Shiro.

Gu Xinyu glanced back at Chunmei behind her, and the little girl had obviously seen it, because her face was a little red.

After all, the one who was working in the field was Chunmei's future husband.

Gu Xinyu glanced at the fourteen-year-old Chunmei, and then at the sixteen-year-old Du Shilang, and also understood why people in this era married early.

When he was in Kyoto in the spring, once Gu Xinyu went to his father's study and saw that his father was counting the numbers there, only to know that the average life expectancy of people in the Zhou Dynasty was only thirty-six years old.

The women of the Zhou Dynasty basically got married when they were fifteen years old. Because the average life expectancy is short, the survival rate of newborns is not high.

Therefore, only by giving birth to six or seven children can we prevent population decline, we must cherish the time of childbirth, and if we get married early, the children will grow up to be helpers;

If we get married at the age of 30, we will not be able to fulfill the task of having six or seven children, and on the other hand, many people will die before they reach the age of children, and the children will become orphans.

And early childbearing is more conducive to eugenics than late childbearing, so that most children are born at the mother's golden reproductive age.

Moreover, as long as the average child grows up safely to the age of ten, more than half of them will grow into adulthood.

Therefore, people in this era should get married as soon as possible, and Gu Xinyu has no intention of changing this idea, after all, the backwardness of the overall medical level has led to this phenomenon.

A single cold can kill a child.

Gu Xinyu suddenly felt a little pessimistic, she subconsciously put her hand on her lower abdomen, she and Zhou Muhan are very affectionate, the child is not at present, but the future is not ruled out.

When you think about having children, you worry about their growth and the risks that come with having children.

Gu Xinyu suddenly shuddered.

Because there are really many women who die because of dystocia here.

Seeing Gu Xinyu, he suddenly paused, and several girls who were quietly joking with Chunmei all looked at Gu Xinyu, and Chunli asked worriedly, "Young lady, your face is not good, let's go back." ”

"Yes, yes, young lady, your face is very pale."

Gu Xinyu took a deep breath, looked up at the clear blue sky, and did his best to obey the fate of heaven.

"It's all here, look back." Gu Xinyu said as he walked towards the ground.

Recently, the weather has been good, the rain has followed, and the fields are full of green seedlings.

The same is true for this potato field, the seedlings have already emerged, with two green leaves, looking at Du Shilang who is still bending over, Gu Xinyu is relieved.

It seems that this is to do what you want.

Corn and potatoes, two high-yielding crops, are growing in the land at this time.

In time, the agriculture of the Zhou Dynasty will definitely undergo earth-shaking changes.

A few little girls were talking quietly beside them, and they were not only reading and writing now, but they were also very familiar with the growth of crops in the village.

Sometimes, Gu Xinyu needs them to understand the situation, and then give it back to her.

After all, it is very inconvenient for Du Shilang to enter and exit Weiyuxuan (to be continued.) )
