On the sixth day of the first month of February, Cheng Changqing's family was a little worried after being busy, especially the Li family, who didn't even have the energy to embroider! It was the day of the prefectural exam!

On the same day, after the sting, the whole farm began to get busy, and spring ploughing began. Cheng Changqing got a few acres of thin fields from the old house. I used to be in poor health, and I have been renting it from others, but now I am in good health, but I am getting busier and busier, but I have not been able to come back.

However, this year, his family has an extra 100 acres of land, Cheng Changqing and Cheng Zhaoer deliberately found time in the past two days, went to see the land, and asked the tenants to turn over the land a few times first.

Last winter, Cheng Zhaoer had asked the tenants to turn the ground deep several times, just to turn out the insects and grass roots inside and freeze to death.

This year, all the land is used to plant cotton, and there are still nearly two months before the cottonseeds go to the ground.

In the past two years, God is still very powerful, there are no natural disasters in this area, last year's snow was quite big, this year's spring did not appear to be cold in spring, the old and experienced crops said that this year is a good year!

Xichen Village is only three villages away from Heping Village, and most of the people employed are tenants from the village, almost all of whom are surnamed Chen.

Although the interval is not far away, Cheng Changqing's family does not live in Xichen Village after all, and it is easy to see the fields after all!

Therefore, Cheng Zhaoer thought about it, their tenants are all locals, and they have been together for a long time, and the tenants also have their own little heads among themselves.

This head is known as Chen Quan.

Chen Quan is an old tenant of this land, and there are seven sons in the family, Chen Da and Chen Er...... Chen Qi is scary to look at! People say: Half the size, eat the poor. These seven and a half sons are about to "eat" their Lao Tzu. Cheng Zhao'er went to his house to see that the poor couldn't even wear clothes.

However, this Chen Quan has a characteristic, this person is particularly righteous, although he is poor. However, the people in the village thought he was a man, and he had always been tenants of the landlord's land. He was also a good hand at tending to the crops, so the original landlord Chen was also convinced of him and asked him to help him manage the other tenants a little. Chen Quan is also doing very well!

Chen Quan has no relatives above, and there are clansmen who are related to their ancestors. But in these years, Xichen Village is notoriously poor, and his life is about to be unbearable, and he can't help others.

Chen Quan's father died of illness in his early years, and he was a widowed mother, and the wife he was looking for was originally here to escape the famine, and the family was gone. Now that the widowed mother is old, Chen Quan is very filial, even if he doesn't have to eat, he has to let the widow mother eat enough.

This. Cheng Changqing and Cheng Zhao'er went to his house again, it was still a thatched house that was about to collapse, and there were only two of them, I really don't know how so many people lived! Cheng Zhaoer chatted with Chen Quan for a few words, and found that Chen Quan was a flexible mind, and he claimed that no one had taught him the job of farming, and he had figured it out by himself. Cheng Zhaoer thought so.

This person gave her the feeling that she was a little bit clear.

The seventy-year-old mother of the family and Chen Quan's wife Niu are very kind, and the children in the family are lined up, and the eldest is about 20 years old, and he has not yet decided on a marriage. It's really too poor for my family. Lao Qi was only five or six years old, and he didn't even wear clothes, and he ran around the yard naked.

Now the weather is still very cold, and it makes people feel distressed to see it. Cheng Changqing sighed. Chen Quan waved his hand and said: It's okay, I'm used to it.

Cheng Zhaoer suddenly felt a little sad, how poor should this family be, so that they don't even give their children clothes?

When Cheng Changqing and Cheng Zhao'er came, they brought a small half basket of eggs and a plate of snacks. Chen Qi stared at the snacks and eggs dripping out without realizing it. However, they didn't get their hands on it. Cheng Zhao'er picked up a piece of soufflé and handed it to Chen Qi, but Chen Qi stepped back, glanced at his father again, and got his father's approval, before he took the snack and stuffed it into his grandmother's mouth.

Cheng Changqing looked at this scene, patted Chen Quan's shoulder and said, "Brother Chen, you will be blessed in the future, look at how sensible your baby is!" ”

Chen Quan waved his hand again and again, but there was a relieved smile in the corner of his weather-beaten eyes.

Cheng Changqing and Cheng Zhaoer saw that Chen Quan was indeed a good person, so they explained their intentions. Or ask Chen Quan to help manage this piece of tenants, and help take care of the fields by the way! Don't bother the two masters, Chen Quan did a good job in this area before, and he can do it well in the future.

In terms of price, in addition to the previously negotiated land sharing with other tenants. As a steward, Chen Quan can also get three taels of silver a month's monthly money!

When Cheng Zhao'er said this, the eyes of the whole family lit up, including the youngest Chen Qi! It's just that Chen Quan was a little cramped again, and after a long time, he cautiously asked Cheng Changqing: Is it too much? Three taels of silver can buy an acre of good land. Originally, Landlord Chen only gave 500 yuan a month, and he felt that it was a lot.

Cheng Changqing glanced at Cheng Zhao'er, and said with a smile: "Brother, as long as you help us take care of it, this is what you deserve, we don't live in Xichen Village, and we need you to take care of it more in the future!" ”

Chen Quan's family was grateful to Dade, and when Cheng Changqing and Cheng Zhaoer left, they insisted on staying the two for dinner, Niu's took out a pig's head pickled for the New Year, which used to be eaten for a year, and now she took out the whole thing, just to entertain Cheng Changqing and Cheng Zhaoer, the two distinguished guests!

Cheng Changqing and Cheng Zhaoer saw that they couldn't shirk it, so they didn't shirk it again. It's just a pig's head, but Cheng Changqing resolutely refused to let Niu's do it, and Cheng Zhaoer also went to the stove to help Niu's cook.

Niu's couldn't let go at first, but then it gradually relaxed, and he felt that the new owner seemed to be a little different, and he couldn't tell what was different!

Cheng Changqing and Cheng Zhao'er breathed a sigh of relief, everything was arranged, and they could rest assured.

After coming back, Cheng Zhaoer didn't care about listening to Zhuxuan in the town at all, he rushed to the drawings for a few days a few days ago, designed a number of new furniture styles, and discussed with Cheng Changqing for several days, and now these styles are enough for Cheng Changqing to ponder and compile furniture for more than half a year.

What's more, Cheng Changqing is now completely able to negotiate business by himself, and rarely appears cramped or at a loss, and there is no need for Cheng Zhaoer to "accompany and supervise" at all.

Cheng Zhaoer is now concentrating on planting cotton.

It is very difficult to grow cotton, the conditions here are backward, whether it is the configuration of pesticides, or in the process of cotton planting, the cover of the plastic film on the land, and even the fertility of the land are 108,000 miles away from the 21st century.

Even if Cheng Zhaoer can remember to write the names of those chemical ingredients, he definitely doesn't have the ability to make them.

Therefore. For the cultivation of cotton, she can only use the most primitive and cumbersome methods, choose some of the most basic, and she can find drugs to prepare drugs for seed dressing. Finally, the soil is planted as much as possible to maintain the fertility and humidity of the soil. That's the limit of what she can do.

And these are easy to say, but in fact, each step requires a lot of energy.

A few days ago, Ouyang Jing came over for dinner and talked to Cheng Zhaoer about the cultivation of cotton.

Go to the age of the time. Cheng Zhaoer planted a few cotton plants on a small scale, but the cotton itself is a plant with a very low seedling rate, so even though Cheng Zhaoer was very careful, the survival rate of the cotton planted in the end was only six out of ten plants. And Ouyang Jing sent a few of his henchmen to learn technology, he is also smart, knowing that this cotton planting technology is the lifeblood of his future production of cotton cloth and his achievement of fame and status. Therefore, secrecy is well done. These henchmen sent over are not only his henchmen, but also the sons of his mother's family who have taken root for generations, and this technology is really not afraid of leaking out.

However, they are not Cheng Zhaoer after all, when Cheng Zhaoer feels that something is wrong, he can still be improvisable and flexible, but when it comes to them. They just memorized what Cheng Zhaoer said, so the result of the rigidity is to test it. Only three out of ten can survive.

Therefore, Ouyang Jing had to bother Cheng Zhao'er and let her guide again, but Cheng Zhao'er really didn't hide her secrets, and they also watched Cheng Zhao'er's process of serving cotton throughout the whole process. However, the results were not satisfactory.

Ouyang Jing can't, seeing that this year is going to be planted on a large scale, he is still waiting to show his skills, although the survival rate of three percent is much better than one of the hundreds of plants he lived before, but people are greedy, with Cheng Zhao'er's survival rate of sixty percent compared to this, why should he use thirty percent?

So, since the beginning of the year, he began to say that Cheng Zhaoer would give him a good service of the cottonseed to increase the emergence rate, and then Cheng Zhaoer would come to guide the seedlings or cultivation.

Of course Cheng Zhaoer didn't do it, why? She can't finish her own things, and there is no reason to help him do it, and she has taught and taught, and she is very conscientious and does not hide her selfishness at all, why are there so many things? If she wants to take all these things into her hands, then why is she still teaching those people, isn't this a white religion?

Ouyang Jing couldn't, it was useless to grind every day, gritted his teeth, and finally said that Cheng Zhao'er would add half a dry share!

Cheng Zhao'er pouted when she heard this, she was really stingy, and she only added half of it, but she really didn't covet silver, first of all, this dry stock of two percent was still dead now, and it couldn't be turned into silver immediately, she was not interested at all. Besides, if she was a person who pursued a lot of silver, she would have done it herself a long time ago, and what was Ouyang Jing's business? Even if she was forced to have no power and power, she had already opened her mouth before that, and directly made five with Ouyang Jing, and asked for fifty percent of the dry shares, or on the tools used to make cotton cloth, she also opened her mouth widely, and there were many opportunities to ask for money, where would it be Ouyang Jing's turn to open her mouth to add it?

However, this reminded her of one thing, she was carried away by the prospect of cotton and cotton cloth before, and forgot that it was not ten plants that she planted on the kang to plant these cottons herself, but a hundred acres of land!

Although those tenants can farm, she has to die of exhaustion just to guide or check the emergence of cotton seedlings and so on!

Not to mention, before, you have to do it yourself! She is not a robot, even if she doesn't die of exhaustion by doing this, she has to lose half her life, Cheng Zhao'er felt that her legs were weak just thinking about it.

Now, this Ouyang Jing has sent it to the door by himself! Come on, she doesn't want that half-percent dry stock, she just wants the "apprentices" she taught before.

Let them do their own work! Ouyang Jing has a total of eight henchmen, and coming over together is equivalent to sharing her affairs, so that as long as she moves her mouth and points out their mistakes, she doesn't need to do anything at all, how good!

In this way, Cheng Zhao'er will not be tired, and Ouyang Jing's eight henchmen can also improve their skills through practice and discover their mistakes, which can be counted in one fell swoop.

Ouyang Jing was speechless, but he was reluctant to let Cheng Zhao'er be so tired every day. With a wave of his hand, he agreed, and from then on, as long as these eight henchmen were planting cotton, whether it was cultivating seeds or guiding tenants, they would be on call. Unless Cheng Zhao'er and Ouyang Jing fell out one day, otherwise, they really couldn't get rid of Cheng Zhao'er.

However, even so, Cheng Zhaoer is now busy. In addition to Cheng Zhaoer's own side earlier, there were some cottonseeds, and Ouyang Jing also collected a lot.

Although her own 100 acres of land will not be planted until the beginning of April, Ouyang Jing can't wait.

In order to maintain the temperature, this rich and hated guy deliberately went to order a greenhouse!

That's right, it's a greenhouse, a greenhouse made of pure glass, and the people here call glass glass! This made Cheng Zhaoer know even more that the world she was in now was a world that had been transformed by the traverser.

However, this is irrelevant, she said earlier that others can go and live well, she is not envious or jealous, and what she pursues is different!

What Cheng Zhao'er is concerned about is that the glass greenhouse of hundreds of acres of land on Ouyang Jing's mother's village has been turned into a big greenhouse, and now at this time, the temperature inside is enough. Cheng Zhao'er can be planted now.

After ten days, the people in the village found that the carriages of the Cheng family had increased again, and these days, Young Master Ouyang always came, sometimes several times a day, and he didn't know what he was doing.

has been busy for nearly a month, and at the end of the second lunar month, Cheng Zhaoer was a little free.

The cotton on Ouyang Jing's side has finally fallen to the ground!

Because there are too many people in the family, therefore, Cheng Zhaoer has to go to Ouyang Jing's mother's Zhuangzi every time to select and dry seeds and cultivate seeds, in order to prevent anyone from seeing, he left with Ouyang Jing's carriage early, and the Cheng family also claimed that Cheng Zhaoer went to listen to Zhuxuan's busy work.

Now, only her own cotton seeds have not been made, but with the help of Ouyang Jing's eight henchmen, it is also much easier, and Cheng Zhaoer also borrowed the land on the Zhuangzi to continue cultivating seeds.

In early March, news came from Changshun City that the results of the county examination had come down! (To be continued.) )
