Two hundred and twenty nv son-in-law and father-in-law

"Xiaoxi, it's better to marry Eryin. Féi water does not flow into the fields of outsiders - besides, she is still young and not in a hurry. Fu Buer said confidently, "Marry Eryin Province for a bride price, she will be a capable person in the future." As for the first gold, I think Xiaofu is a good kid. There will definitely be development in the future. Now that I have climbed up to the pro, I can't lose it in the future. ”

The couple took half a night before going to sleep. The next day, Fu Fu got up early and went down to the field with a hoe, and the attitude of Fu Fuji and his wife at the banquet yesterday made him feel that there was a mén about marrying a wife. Although he has no connection with the Fu family now, it is likely that he will be his son-in-law and father-in-law in the future. Of course, Fu Fu has to work hard to show it.

Although Fu Fuji is still a little wretched on weekdays, he is a good hand at work. Before leaving the mén, the work was assigned, and everyone had specific work, such as digging ditches, playing fields, accumulating féi, raising pigsties, herding sheep, and planting gardens...... In order.

Although the Fu Fuji family has more people, they also have a lot of land, and they have to engage in side jobs. Labor is not abundant. Recently, the wages of short-term and long-term workers have skyrocketed, and it is difficult to find manpower, and he can hire fewer people. Fu Fuji was inspired by the fact that the agricultural equipment such as threshing machines and windmills sold to him by the Heaven and Earth Society greatly improved production efficiency. At the time of the autumn harvest, he used a bank loan to add a cow and bought a small traction harvester and seeder from the Tiandihui store. Two cows pulled agricultural machinery to carry out animal power operations, so that the land of the Fuji family was the first to complete the harvesting and sowing.

While other farmers were still busy threshing and planting green féi and winter wheat, the Fu Fuji family was already starting to build water conservancy, accumulate féi and engage in side businesses.

Fu Buji also had the intention to win over Fu Fu and work with him to build a ditch -- the farmland water conservancy in Meiyang Village was not long repaired, and the farmland water conservancy standards here are not as high as the grange directly under the Ministry of Agriculture, and the facilities are much more primitive, and the ditch has not been hardened, and after a summer of use, especially after the rainy season, the ditch is very silted. The main canal and branch canals are uniformly desilted by the village, and the silt in the irrigation and drainage ditches is cleaned up by each family according to the principle of who benefits and who maintains. In this way, the water conservancy facilities can be maintained, and the silt in the ditch can be used as a raw material for accumulation.

The black, stinking mud was shoveled out with a spade and thrown into a basket on the shore. From time to time, he could dig up the loaches from the mud, and every now and then, Fu Fu would take the cheeks of the loaches, wear them with wicker and hang them aside, and the loaches that had been shoveled into several pieces, and also picked them up one by one and threw them in a small basket - and ate them as if they were back. In the past, this was a rare opportunity for them to fight tooth sacrifices. Even now he hasn't broken the habit.

Fu Fu only wore a homespun cardigan - the army issued a cotton underwear in winter, and Fu Fu was reluctant to wear it - an army-standard máo scarf with the words "Defend the family and defend the country" was hung around his neck, and the beads of sweat on his dark skin were shining in the sun. Seeing that he stopped for a while and took a breath, he immediately picked up a bamboo kettle with a smile and gave it to Fu Fu.

Fu Fu took a big sip of water and wiped his sweat with a máo towel. Gasping for breath with satisfaction, doing farm work gave him a sense of pleasure. Fu Fuji said: "Let's rest first!" This ditch is long. You can't finish it all in one go! ”

Fu Fu wiped his mouth, returned to the ditch, rubbed his muddy feet on the dead grass by the ditch, and sat down.

"Master, I have added a lot of land to my family."

"Yes, yes, it's all thanks to the chief. A lot of land has been added, but a large part of it is considered public land, which was planted for me by Chief Wu. The land was divided. When the harvest is good, they also take more. Fu Buji said and took out a cigarette, Fu Fu took out a pack of matches from his trouser pocket and lit it for him.

Fu Fuji squinted his eyes happily and spat out a puff of smoke rings. "The ten thousand leaders of the Heaven and Earth Society can be a character. There are so many ways to farm the land, and all the crops we have here can't match one of his toes. He boasted of Wanlihui in his mouth, but he was actually proud of his original vision, if he hadn't joined the Heaven and Earth Society first, how could there be such a situation today? Fu Fuji can see clearly: Australians like to set up "pacesetters", they do things, and it is always a great benefit for you to jump out and echo it first, and it is far from following up later.

"It's not that Master Fu, you can see far." Fu Fu complimented.

This tickled Fu Fuji's itch, and he was so happy that he opened his mouth and smiled. He pointed:

"Look at the land, to the east to the mound, to the west to the grove, to the north to the ditch...... "he showed off his possessions.

"How did the lord's land become so regular? Are they all newly bought? Fu Fu suddenly discovered something, "Wasn't that piece of wasteland in the west originally?" ”

"But this one is all my own. I sold all the scattered land I had and bought it around the land with the money. I saved up as much land as I could, and bought some wasteland next to it, and opened it all out to form a ......."

"Wasteland?" Fu Fu was a little surprised. This piece of land was originally the largest piece of land in the Fu family, and it was originally opened up by Fu Buji with his family. It is not easy to open up wasteland, not only does it consume a lot of labor, but also the demand for féi material in wasteland is very large.

"Heaven and earth will have a wasteland team, they have a large machine, a dozen oxen pulled, three or four days to open the ground and level it. The féi material is also supplied by the Heaven and Earth Society, and it is all shipped in bags...... "Thinking of this, Fu Fuji is a little worried about his loan problem, and the machine farming team and féi materials used by the Tiandi Society are all bank loans.

This kind of machine Fu Fu saw when he was supporting farmers, it was all iron, and the size was amazing, and it could be used to do all kinds of farm work with different parts, plowing, harrowing, plowing, sowing, and harvesting...... It is almost omnipotent, that is, the plots have to be large enough to be used - so they have so far only been used in the chiefs' own farms. The local natives, even the big landowners, rarely have such large tracts of land.

I didn't expect Master Fu to nòng such a piece of land! Fu Fu thought, needless to say, the old man wants to use more Australian farm tools to work in the future - saving people and effort.

"In the future, I want to use Australian machines to work more."

"Chief Wan said that machine work is the direction, and people work too slowly." Fu Fuji said, "It's called...... Efficiency? That's right, it's called efficiency. He said we were too inefficient here. ”

Fu Fuji's method of grouping the scattered pieces together was not originally for the use of machinery, but was inspired by his chats with Wan Lihui, who had already been inspired many times by chatting with the chiefs. It turns out that the chiefs are always far-sighted.

Wan Lihui talked about labor efficiency when chatting. He believes that the labor efficiency of the East Village is not as good as that of the West Village. Because the land of the new immigrants in the West Village is uniformly distributed, and the land of each family is together, the peasant households in the East Village rarely have their own land together, and many families are in the east and west, whether they are homesteaders, landlords, tenants, or long-term and short-term laborers who work for others, it takes a lot of time to go back and forth between the fields every day, and the accumulation is a great consumption.

There are also great other advantages to the intensive cultivation of large areas of land, such as the easy arrangement of farmland and water conservancy construction. Small pieces of land in fragments involve the specific interests of each family, and it is difficult to form a consensus of the whole village. Meiyang Village was able to complete the infrastructure construction, to a large extent, in line with the rapid development of the village and set an example - everyone believed in the words of the Heaven and Earth Society, so that the farmland water conservancy could be carried out relatively smoothly.

"Chiefs like big no matter what!" Fu Fu said and smiled, and Fu Fuji also smiled.

Fu Fuji chōu took a few puffs of cigarette before he said slowly: "Xiaofu, you have been in my house for more than ten years. Although you are not my son, I have supported you for more than ten years," he took a puff of cigarette, as if touching the words below, "I know what you are thinking. ”

Fu Fu's face turned red: "Master Fu, it's good that you understand." ”

"I agreed." He stopped Fu Fu, who was happy to be in the form of sè, "One gold can be promised to you, but you are still a soldier now, and you can't get married." When you are a soldier, you live in a group house, and you have to practice every day, and maybe you have to go out to see the battle. Yijin is an NV child, so he can't go to the barracks with you. ”

"Yes. I'm also wondering when I'll be discharged......"

"What do you do when you are discharged from the army?!" Fu Buji hurriedly interrupted him, "What are you doing when you come back from the army, do you want to be a common man who farms?" You do a good job in the team, you have to be self-motivated......"

Fu Fu is not stupid, and soon understands that Fu Buer wants him to become an officer before he can get married. At that moment, he said: "Master Fu, you can rest assured of this." I'm going to join the teaching team during the Chinese New Year, and I'll be a corporal. I look at the officers who have only fought a few battles with the chiefs. When there is another battle, I will also be an officer. ”

Fu Buji was very satisfied with his attitude, and put on an elder's style: "You are still young. One gold is not too big. Wouldn't it be more decent to wait for a few years to get married again with a sign on your shoulder? ”

"That's right." These words aroused Fu Fu's ambition to make a contribution, and he nodded, "I must become an officer and marry a gold again!" ”

"You can rest assured. When you get married, I won't be able to treat you badly. Fu Fuji said.

"Xiexie Daddy ......"

"Hehehe," Fu Buji smirked, "It's early to call Dad, you can call it at home, don't mess around,......" He waved his hand, "Keep working." ”
