"Yes! The child understands that after following the prime minister for a long time, he understands many truths, the people are precious, and the king is light! The emperor's grandfather never cared about the people's feelings, so that the world was in chaos. Yang Yu sighed.

This thirteen-year-old, soon-to-be-fourteen-year-old boy already has a hint of maturity on his face. Concubine Wei looked at her son and was very satisfied, after all, she was a son on one side and a lover on the other. Perhaps there was a desire to use and compromise at the beginning, and with many in-depth exchanges, a heart was naturally tied to him.

This is women, the vast majority of women, after having a man, the whole heart is in the man, unless the heart is broken. (Don't compare the current material woman, at least when we were young, the feelings were still very pure!) Commemorate the lost youth and the hearts of those who have been changed by the world. ）

The sensitivity of young people made Yang Yu discover some changes in his mother a long time ago, but he knew that his mother's life had not been easy all these years, and now he was finally stable, so he was very understanding and did not mention it.

Of course, this is mainly because he also admires Zou Yu very much, admires him for being able to defeat Liaodong and defeat the Turks, and knows a lot, such as the chair under the buttocks, the leather is covered with solid wood, and it is filled with the fluff of chickens and ducks. It looks very easy to make, and when you sit on it, you can sink into it halfway, and it's very comfortable.

It's such a simple change, and it's much more comfortable than kneeling, stools, and the like. Even a face made of ordinary hardwood can be reclined on it.

The change of furniture makes life full of surprises and more comfortable, and at the enthronement ceremony, the group of steel soldiers are so powerful and majestic, so that his young heart is full of enthusiasm, and he imagines how happy it should be to be like Zou Yu to lead thousands of troops and horses. It's just that he also knows it's impossible.

"Yu'er has grown up, and my mother is relieved!" Concubine Wei's eyes were slightly red and she sighed.

"The prime minister said that spring ploughing is about to begin, and if the children are willing, they can wear civilian clothes and participate in the work." Yang Yu said with a gentle smile.

"No! How could he make my son do rough work! Concubine Wei said excitedly.

"Don't worry, mother, the prime minister is not letting the child farm, but learning together. The prime minister said that people can not farm, but they must know how to farm. Moreover, this year's spring ploughing is different from previous years, so if you see more, you will be able to better govern the place in the future. Looking at his mother's excited appearance, Yang Yu explained a little awkwardly in his heart.

"That's what he said?" Concubine Wei asked in surprise.

"Yes! What's wrong? Yang Yu asked curiously.

"It's okay, it's okay, the mother is just so happy, my son has really grown up and is sensible, you must follow the prime minister to study hard, you know?" Concubine Wei shook her head with a smile and said.

Yang Yu didn't hear what Zou Yu meant, but she heard the underlying meaning, which meant that she might let her son govern one side in the future.

Whether it is for Yang Yu to govern the place, or simply for guidance, at least it shows that Zou Yu didn't even have the mind to let his son be a puppet, nor did he think about being imprisoned in the future. Thinking of these, Concubine Wei couldn't help but feel a little sweet in her heart.

Yang Yu said that this spring ploughing is different, and this is true. Since the beginning of the year, many preparations have been made. First of all, it is to concentrate on the resettlement of the people and re-plan the land.

According to the Sui Dynasty's uniform land system, each person, according to the fertility of the land, and the division of land, more than dozens of acres or hundreds of acres, as little as twenty or thirty acres.

This depends on the fertility of the land and the amount of local land, the place with little land is called narrow township, and the land with more land is called wide township. The people of the narrow township must have had a better time than the people of the wide township, even if the taxes are lower.

Under Zou Yu's rule, this problem must not exist, because there is empty land everywhere, in order to better develop, of course, it is best to concentrate on it, after all, there is a lot of power.

Not to mention this era, even after the founding of the People's Republic of China in later generations, there were a lot of barren mountains and wastelands, which were completely reclaimed collectively by the people of the whole country.

Of course, there are still drawbacks of big pot rice, which Zou Yu has always tried his best to avoid, working collectively, and then distributing it to each household, so as to maximize the use of labor.

Although it is said that it is difficult to leave the homeland, but in recent years of turmoil, the people have long been accustomed to moving, avoiding disasters, and going out to serve labor, so they are not too averse to moving, not to mention that now they are moving near the city, which is equivalent to changing from a rural hukou to an urban hukou.

A year ago, the good news of a year of tax exemption was announced, and after the autumn harvest, people were organized to build houses and build canals, all of which were paid enough for grain, so now under Zou Yu's rule, the reputation of the government is still good.

Many beggars were discharged from the army and returned to their hometowns, bringing their families from afar, and those who were close also brought back rewards, bringing back reliable news from Zou Yu.

Therefore, this relocation was very smooth, of course, Zou Yu spent a lot, and the grain of the entire Yongfeng warehouse was continuously transported to various places every month.

In every county seat, there are several officials who went to Liaodong to inspect and train, and at the same time, the grain and vegetable seeds, poultry cubs, and fruit tree seedlings mobilized from Liaodong were also transported to Youzhou, Yizhou, Bingzhou and other places.

What makes Zou Yu most confident is that there are a lot of livestock now, although there are not many ploughing cattle, there are a lot of horses, except for strong war horses, the others are used to plough the land and pull goods.

There are also waterwheels, a whole winter, plus the three months of spring, hundreds of large and small waterwheels have been erected in various places to ensure that most of the land can be watered, which undoubtedly allows the people to cultivate this year, reducing many things, and being able to free up time to do more things.

Now there is no winter wheat, March wheat, April rice, beans in May, and sorghum in June. These are the main grains of the North now.

In the past, there was a lot of land, and it was planted in rotation, and the planting method was also very rough, basically turning over the land, and then digging a pit and planting it.

Now there are livestock, it is much easier to plough the ground, in the winter it is turned over, frozen to death of insect pests, now turn it again, carefully clean the grass roots, and then sprinkle the grass and wood ashes, then plant the seeds, and then water the farm manure, this is completed.

All the seeds are soaked in water, screened, full, according to the experience of the old farmers, each small pit, put in the right amount of seeds.

It can be said that from ploughing the ground to planting seeds, whether it is seed selection or fertilization, it is intensive cultivation, in order to prevent pikas and birds from destroying seeds, not only some small traps are set up on the edge of the ground, scarecrows, but also patrols at night.

This kind of patrol is not something that can be done by people who are constantly moving around, nor is it a fire that is guarded by a few people. Instead, it is pushed on a wooden stick with a liter (square, a tool for measuring grain). This makes a strange and dull sound, some like the cry of a beast, and at night it can be heard far away, scaring away small animals.

This method is a nomadic way to drive away wolves at night, although the tools are different, but the effect is the same, at least in Liaodong for two years, the destroyed fruits and vegetables, grain, much less.
