Money and goods have been properly arranged, and Xinzhai is also under construction.

The next thing he has to think about is Tuntian, as well as the division of the field.

Ah Niu took Wang Zezhi and walked along the cave whirlpool.

On both sides of the river, in addition to most of the barren fields, there are some scattered farmers who have planted some of the newly cultivated land.

This is exactly the land that Geng Ruqi returned to the people after the trial of the case.

There are not many cultivated fields on both sides of the river, and not far from the river is a large area of barren and dry land that is exposed.

Wang Zezhi followed Ah Niu and rode his horse from the shallow part of the river, and came to the other side of the river, and the same situation was on the other side.

Wang Zezhi estimated that in the area along the river alone, there are thousands of acres of fertile land that can be cultivated.

In fact, these lands are quite fertile, but the water conservancy is in disrepair, irrigation is not in place, and there is no one to cultivate and take care of it, so it is barren.

The land in Shanxi is like this, there is drought and little rain, all rely on irrigation, like those places where there are no rivers, if it doesn't rain, there will be no harvest.

Because of this, Wang Zezhi attaches great importance to the fertile land in the area of Dongwry.

Wang Zezhi walked up the banks of the river, he wanted to see how much of the water conservancy facilities here were still usable, and how much food he had to spend to repair them.

He found that due to the low water level of the cave whirlpool, and the waterway had not been dredged for many years, the river could not circulate, and many places were shallow and abandoned.

This situation has made some fields farther away from the river even more barren.

If the river does not have water, the construction of such a deep well will cost a huge amount of manpower, material and money, which is not something that ordinary people can bear, which also causes the situation that there is no water and more barren fields.

If someone can dredge the canals in this area and build some deep wells for irrigation, then this area can become a large grain producing area.

However, he can only think about this situation, Wenju people are rampant in the township, occupying countless fertile land, and the county magistrates only know corruption and fill their pockets.

Even if the imperial court allocates money and grain, there will not be much left in the end that can be used in this area.

After thinking about it, in the end, this money and food still had to be paid by himself.

Wang Zezhi chose a mound and looked around, what a good place it was.

But now it's a barren place.

Wang Zezhi fell into deep thought, he had to find some good farmers from the recruited homeless people.

"My lord, this is all fertile land, if we get through all the ditches and recruit some people to cultivate them, it will be a good field in the future." On the side, Ah Niu took the fish scale map in his hand and said to Wang Zezhi.

"Hmm." Wang Zezhi snorted softly.

It's all this damn era, the officials and gentry colluded to harm the people, and the taxes on the yeoman farmers were increasing exponentially.

Ding Yin, Liao Salary and various taxes emerged in an endless stream, and the people could not make ends meet, and their lives were difficult, so they had to flee with their families.

Either that, corrupt officials maliciously annexed land, forcing the people into a desperate situation, and had to give up the land in exchange for a temporary survival.

Historical facts prove that the land at the end of each dynasty is not so little, after the disaster and war, it is basically a township, a town, a city, a county is deserted, and even thousands of miles of land, Liao is uninhabited.

In fact, there is still a lot of land in the Ming Dynasty, but after these corrupt officials, gentry, nobles, and vassal kings invaded, they were unwilling to spend manpower, material and financial resources to cultivate, and only thought about continuing to persecute the people and loot the people's fat and ointment.

Insatiable greed is something more terrible than poverty.

Wang Zezhi pondered, he had to think about how to distribute these fields.

Not only did he have to put the homeless people at ease to farm, but he also had to make his soldiers die for him. Chinese bar

Wang Zezhi saw his desire for land in Ah Niu's eyes, which is a plot that traditional Chinese farmers would have.

There was a stable piece of land, one acre and three points of land, three people, a ploughing ox, growing grain, and some wild vegetables, and they were satisfied.

Wang Zezhi was thinking that if he let all these people join the tuntiansu under the name of the guerrilla general, become a military member, and form a strong and united collective, he would be able to make his power grow while stockpiling grain in the future.

At this moment, he took a deep breath and was full of pride.

After Wang Zezhi saw the land, he came to Tudong and Shan Tongshan to discuss the matter of the Tuntian Shogun.

As soon as the two discussed, they found that this matter was not as simple as it seemed.

First, the tuntian needs a young and strong population, the elderly and children cannot plough the land, and he still needs to do a lot of preparation.

For example, where do you buy cattle?

Now he didn't know where there were so many cattle to buy, and if there were, he wouldn't skimp on the money in his pocket.

If the channel can be dredged before July, then some corn can be planted, and if it is dredged before September, then only wheat can be planted.

In short, the sooner you can grow food, the better.

The top priority, no matter what, is to recruit more young people back, which is also a necessary condition for Tuntian.

Yu County is one of the oldest counties in Shanxi, it is the Spring and Autumn Jin Dynasty Dafu Yu Bingzhiyi, Yu County should have a sufficient population, after the disaster of Wenju people, the rebellion of thieves, and now, the population of Yu County is not enough.

Recruiting homeless people depends on luck.

If there is a large influx of young and strong people into a certain place, then you will meet good luck.

If there is a large influx of old and weak people into a certain place, then it is not known whether it is good luck or bad luck.

Of course, sometimes it is possible not to see a single homeless person for many days.

However, perhaps it is the ballad of Shan Tongshan that has played a role, and these days there will always be small groups of displaced people from all over the country rushing to Shouyang and Yuxian.

After Wang Zezhi and Shan Tongshan discussed specific matters, he personally went to Yuxian County to ask to see Geng Ruqi, who was handling government affairs inside.

Geng Ruqi's face was embarrassed, and he frowned and sighed.

"Nowadays, Mo said Yu County, the population of the entire Shanxi prefecture and county is insufficient, and as for the cultivation of cattle, it is even more precious, it is not easy to do."

Wang Zezhi also sighed, the governor of a province said that this matter was not easy to do, which shows that this matter is really difficult to do.

Geng Ruqi can't help with the matter of ploughing cattle, but he can.

He ordered to go down and spread it to all parts of Shanxi, and all the young and strong people among the displaced people were guided to Shouyang and Yuxian, and handed over to the Yanmen Pass guerrillas to receive them as soldiers.

Although Wang Zezhi was a little disappointed, he still bowed down to thank him and prepared to leave Yuxian.

Just as he was about to turn around, Geng Ruqi suddenly asked, "You are the one hundred households in Shouyang City who killed one hundred and six thieves, right?" ”

Wang Zezhi immediately bowed down and saluted, and said: "The last general is a guerrilla attack at Yanmen Pass. ”

Geng Ruqi stared at the respectful Wang Zezhi for a while, stroked his beard and said: "In this case, your newly built station should be renamed, and the gangsters in the cottage are too heavy, so let's call it a guerrilla battalion." ”

Wang Zezhi's heart shook, and he was still silent on the surface, he bowed down and thanked: "Thank you for your name!" ”

Geng Ruqi just inferred to understand his foundation, and he was really smart.

In fact, after Li Ruolian's incident, he knew that he couldn't underestimate anyone, let alone treat them as fools.

But he was still careless, didn't the station he built called Kaishanzhai just to tell others that he had something to do with the bandit Kaishan knife.
