ps: Thank you for sending me peace charms and monthly passes, and of course, all the little masters who gave tips and messages!

With Tian, the next thing is the personnel problem.

Wu Nuandong wants to hire local landless tenants, so that she doesn't have to think about miscellaneous things such as resettlement accommodation for farmers, and she doesn't plan to develop in Hezhou for a long time.

The Cheng tenants are actually more like short-term workers, employing only two seasons of spring planting and autumn harvest, and the villagers can arrange or cultivate their own fields at other times. But the serious 800 tenants are different, they are also called tenants, they are dependent on the landlord's land for survival, and are in a position of powerlessness. When tenants get married, the landlord takes the opportunity to extort money. If they are unable to pay, they will not be able to marry, and their children will be enslaved by the landlord after marriage.

Legally they were still good citizens and could not be bought and sold legally like slaves, but if the landlord sold the land, the tenants of the land bound to the land would also have to be sold by deed. The landlord regarded the life of the tenants as if he were a mustard, and he could sell his life and kill at will. Their status was slightly higher than that of slaves.

Wu Nuandong's request made Gu Governor overjoyed, after they bought that batch of victims, more victims came in Hezhou intermittently, but these people did not receive the favor of the martial family, and they were not willing to sell themselves as slaves lightly. Some of them bought land with money, and those who did not have money exchanged the land for a stable place to live and the right to settle down, and became landless, barely living by working for others.

Hezhou is in ruins, the grain in the field will be enough for their own food, and they will never employ any tenants, and the landlords of the really rich families will all have tenant farmers, and it is even more impossible to accept untrustworthy outsiders.

Two thousand acres of land, with enough plows and a hundred people, is enough. Wu Nuandong plans to hire more than 90 tenants, and the rest of the people will be worked hard by the subordinates of Gaomen Village who are already familiar with the habits of herbs and vegetables, and go to Hezhou to supervise and guide them during the cultivation and harvest season, and the 'secret medicine' Wu Nuandong can also be handed over to them, after all, he is the subordinate of his own family's death deed, and he drinks blended spiritual water all year round, and he has long been loyal to the Wu family. It is impossible to betray lightly.

Tenants don't have to go to the trouble of choosing a subordinate. A newly built village was recommended by the nearby Lizheng, which had exactly 30 households and a population of less than 100 people. A few children who belong to the half-matched are not counted as heads.

This village is actually the Gu Governor's Mansion who resettled those disaster victims who had no money and no land, and built houses for them, which is the location in the mountain nest behind the swamp. They also had easy access to the fields, and they could get there along the trail around the small hills. Other villages are further away. It's not always too convenient to get to work.

Wu Nuandong had been to the village surrounded by mountains on three sides, because the valley was relatively small. The ground is uneven, the houses are scattered, and the pattern is very compact, just enough to live in, and it is a bit difficult to grow some seasonal vegetables for home-chewing in the small courtyard.

It is not easy for these 30 or so households to survive the cold winter. Finally, there is a field to plant and hope, and I am very happy.

Wu Xia Zhi looked at the simple house conditions, and his eyes were straight. The neighbors of Gaomen Village used to live better than this. At least the room is spacious.

Wu Nuandong is not strange, and modern small apartments abound. The price is better than gold, don't you still rush to buy it!

How many people froze to death in the immediate aftermath of the natural disaster, but now they not only survived, but also had a house to live in, which is a great blessing in misfortune.

Wu Nuandong had no disgust or sympathy in his eyes, and he unfolded the contract quite calmly and began to read it.

The tenant farmers, who were very awe-inspiring and apprehensive, were suddenly a little dazed and surprised, shouldn't they be given a dismount to make them obedient, or should they be obedient with both grace and power? Why don't you follow the script? By the time they heard the terms and conditions, the tenant farmers finally knew that they had met a good landlord.

Not only are the landowners responsible for breeding and ploughing cattle, but the way of sharing is not according to other people's five-fifty shares, but four or six points, four landowners, six of them, in case of disaster years, they can also collect less rent as appropriate. This is something that I couldn't have imagined before. It's just that one of them makes several households hesitate, that is, it is not food that is planted, but fruits, vegetables and herbs required by the landowner.

Farmers rely on the land to eat the land, of course, they still feel that it is safe to grow food, not to mention that they do not know how to grow medicinal herbs.

Wu Nuandong understood their scruples, patiently explained, and transformed agricultural science and technology words such as technical support and cultivation and breeding into the most simple language, and only after they understood them one by one did they propose to sign a contract.

When I knew that the landlord's family was specialized in growing medicinal herbs, fruits and vegetables, and I had a lot of experience in this area, basically no one raised any doubts. The landlord also wants a bumper harvest, and the interests of the two are bound together.

It was already the best season for farming, and Wu Tiande and Wu Xingyi also went down to the ground with two small ones, connected with two maids. In the early days, it was necessary to open up the fields and cultivate the fields, and to teach the tenants, who could only grow food, how to treat herbs carefully, which fruits needed to be divided, and which vegetables should not be watered too much.

The fertilizer field is still the previous few steps, the main thing is to fuse the fertilizer with the miraculous black and red soil in the jade mansion, so that people can not see the difference and then rush to the field.

It takes some effort to carry water, Wu Nuandong let people dig a well at the edge of the field, the south is good because there is a lot of rain, there is very little lack of water, the well is not deep, but the water source is sufficient. So she opened a canal along the outermost field, and poured a little spiritual stream water into the canal every day, so as not to deliberately water the field again.

As for the swamp, it needs to be cleaned up and planned.

In fact, biogas is an excellent fuel, but unfortunately Wu Nuandong only knows one, biogas is a combustible gas produced by the fermentation of organic substances under anaerobic conditions, and she does not understand how to operate the esoteric technology.

Wu Nuandong's grandmother is a beautiful southern woman, but her grandfather is a master who is completely rooted in the imperial city, and when he was young, he was also a player who liked to fight crickets and walk birds.

So she knows a little about orchid cultivation, and the moss called sphagnum moss, which grows in the swamps, is the best material for cultivating flowers and plants, especially delicate orchids.

Mulberry trees can be planted on the slightly dry and loose land around the marshland, mulberry leaves can be used to raise silkworms, mulberry trees can be used to make wine, and mulberry branches can be used to grow mushrooms.

Juanqi her mother, Zhou's sister-in-law, came from a brewing family, although it is a small tavern, but it is a serious family handicraft. Plainly letting such a craftsman do some kitchen chores, she feels distressed when she thinks about it. It's far better to make the best use of things and let Aunt Zhou give full play to her residual heat!

White wine is indispensable, as well as red wine, beer, soju and other liquors, Wu Nuandong doesn't mind letting them all come alive for the benefit of people who are good at wine.

The more she thought about it, the more excited she became, water moss is a swamp resource, don't worry, now the first thing to find is the mulberry tree. She thought about it, as if she had seen mulberry trees somewhere, only one or two, so she ignored them without paying attention.

When she remembered it completely, the corners of Wu Nuandong's mouth twitched, it was not somewhere else, it was her neighbor's left and right neighbors, Luo Mansion and Liang Mansion, a mulberry tree on one side, and the two teenagers who loved and killed each other had the same strange hobbies!
