Chapter 176: The Grand Canal 7
Although I drank a lot of wine last night, the degree of the wine brewed by the farmer is really not enough, it can only be called a wine drink, and it is more turbid than the wine made by Lao Zheng Tou himself - there is not enough food to eat, so he is naturally reluctant to make wine, even if he brews wine, he is reluctant to waste it.
Zhou Nan came out of the tent early in the morning, smelling the moist and fresh air, listening to the crows of chickens in the village, such an idyllic environment is really difficult to associate with the saline-alkali land. However, from a distance, the undulating layer of white soil in the surrounding fields pulled Zhou Nan back to reality.
Yu Shen was already waiting, and Zhou Nan instructed Yu Shen to call all the farmers.
Zhou Nan's tent was surrounded by the tents of the pro-army guards, and then the tents where the farmers lived. One for every 10 people. Dozens of tents are lined up in the surrounding area.
The farmers rested all night, and when they heard that the horses were going to see them, they hurriedly followed Yu Shen over.
Zhou Nan saw that everyone had arrived, and said loudly: "Everyone said a lot of ways yesterday, each with its own reason. The people of this village have been cultivating here for decades, and they can harvest half a stone of grain in the salty and wet fields. The village chief revealed that there is a method of deep ploughing and washing the fields handed down by his ancestors. It is roughly the same as the washing of the fields that the third child said yesterday, except that the fields should be flooded with river water, soaked for a winter, and then discharged the water in the fields in the spring of the next year. It seems that this deep ploughing and washing of the fields is also useful. ”
Seeing Zhou Nan praising himself, Li San looked proud, and hugged his fists to the people around him.
"But there are other ways to put forward it, but it has not been verified, I don't know how you will judge?"
Li San and the dozen or so farmers who supported him muttered for a while, and then said to Zhou Nan: "Don Ma, the method of deep ploughing and washing the fields in Sanshui Village is basically the same as the method of our others. ”
Zhou Nan nodded and said, "It should be so." If there is a good way, it will naturally be used. ”
The farmers who advocated boiling salt to remove salt, saw that Li San and those people were now competing with them for the title of "eradicating the roots", and immediately began to say to Zhou Nan that their own methods were the best way to cure the roots, as long as the fields were fenced, ditches were built and banks were built, or Zhuang Pu was erected to block the tide, and then the fields in the middle were boiled one by one, they could naturally be cultivated, and there was no need to worry about it in the future. This statement was also supported by seven or eight people, and they immediately started a war of words with Li San's gang, each saying its own reasoning, each saying its own benefits, and arguing endlessly.
There are still five or six farmers left, and it is indispensable, as long as the fields are well managed and rice can be grown, and as for how to manage them, it still depends on the actual results.
The only one who did not support either washing the fields or boiling salt was the Yizhou farmer, who knew that his method had no one to support, and he did not speak at the moment, but stood alone to show that he did not agree with the other two methods.
This kind of controversy, even if it is fought until next year, will not have a result. Yu Shen looked at Zhou Nan with embarrassment and handed the paper in his hand to Zhou Nan. Zhou Nan took it and saw that there were three methods listed above: washing the fields, boiling the fields, and fertilizing the fields. The number of people, initiators, and follow-up questions corresponding to the three methods have been recorded, which shows that Yu Shen has carefully verified and recorded.
Zhou Nanyang said loudly with the paper in his hand: "Right now, everyone is divided into three laws, and there is no dispute about the result." I have a method, so it is better for you to divide into three groups and conduct a competition on the management of fields. According to the law of governing the field, they work together in groups, each according to their own law, the best to govern the field, the initiator is recorded as the general supervisor of affairs, the official position is seven grades, and the person who follows is the general as the supervisor of the farmer, and the monthly salary is two. The rest of the craftsmen, the horses will also be rewarded as appropriate. I wonder if you would like to give it a try? ”
When these farmers first enlisted, they only thought that the imperial court had recruited them to farm, and the salary was preferential. I thought it was just for them to go farming, and finally give some copper coins. I didn't expect to be able to be an official if I planted a good thing, if I didn't get the first, as long as I did a good job, I could still get the reward of the horse, who wouldn't want to do such a good thing?!
After a burst of excited whispering, someone whispered below: "But the matter of governing the field is not a day's work, how can you judge whether it is good or bad?" ”
Zhou Nan said with a smile: "Whether it is success or failure, you must have your own public opinion in your hearts." Furthermore, I will select people from the village and the people of the village will judge them. With a period of one year, the expiration of one year, the assessment, or the period of less than one year, has been recognized as the best way to govern the field. Thus the victorious are chosen. ”
"The horse is fair, and we are naturally convinced." "The horse commanded, I'll wait for this to start governing the field!"
"Second Brother Niu, if you don't come to our group, you can get some rewards, hahaha!" The farmers below were talking, and some of them were already impatiently preparing to be grouped. Indeed, they are all farming, and when the time comes, everyone will naturally know who will be able to farm the fields. Even if it is selfish, there are people who are chosen from the village as a just person to judge. If you want to win, you just need to manage the fields.
"That's very good." Zhou Nan looked at the momentum of these farmers with satisfaction, and said to Yu Shen: "According to their own methods, let's group them first!" ”
Yu Shen took the piece of paper he had memorized and read it aloud: "Li San washes the fields in a group, there are fourteen people in total; Liu Laoqi boiled a group of fields, with a total of nine people; Yizhou Hanzhi Fertile Field Group, a total of ...... One person. There was laughter below, but the Yizhou farmer still did not flinch. Yu Shen read aloud again: "The remaining six people don't know how to govern the fields, they only know how to farm, and they have never chosen the method of governing the fields. The assignment of each group has been completed, please give me instructions, how to start to govern the field? ”
Zhou Nan said to Xiao Jiu beside him: "Go and ask Village Chief Zhai to come here to discuss matters." When Xiao Jiu saw Zhou Nan's order, he immediately rushed away. After a while, Village Chief Zhai rushed over with Xiao Jiu.
"Village Chief Zhai, we have divided the people who govern the field into three groups, and we will start to govern the field on the same day. It's just that there must be fields to govern the fields, and I see that your Sanshui Village, surrounded by water on three sides, is just used to govern. Is the village chief willing to take out the land and govern it for the farmers? ”
Village Chief Zhai hurriedly said: "This is all a noble way to make a living for our small people, how can you refuse?!" The nobles don't have to discuss with us, the little old man and the clansmen are at the mercy of the nobles! ”
Zhou Nan saw that the village chief spoke cheerfully, and said with a smile: "If I use your land and delay the situation for a year, I will not be unreasonable." How many acres of land do you have in this village? ”
The village chief didn't know what he meant, and replied blankly: "There are 380 acres of land in total, and there are accounts in Wuqing County. ”
Zhou Nan didn't pay attention to any accounts, and said: "Three hundred and eighty acres of land, I use all of them." An acre of land will give you a stone of grain and rice, which will be enough for your people to eat. ”
The village chief immediately waved his hand again and again, and stammered: "This ...... How does this make it?! The villains would never dare to ......"
"Grain and rice will not be given to you in vain," Zhou Nan said, "You can divide the village into various groups to use, and you don't need to ask, just follow the orders of each group." ”
The village chief was relieved and asked happily, "I don't know which groups?" How will this field and the strong men be distributed? ”
"The fields on the east, west, south and north sides of the village are divided into four pieces, and the strong men in the village are also divided into four groups. If there is anything unclear, you can find Secretary Yu. Zhou Nan made a brief assignment and said to Village Chief Zhai.
"Isn't it three?" Secretary Yu Shenyu asked strangely first.
