After more than ten days of intense busyness, the spring ploughing finally started as scheduled, although the first year of the Xingtian Army to do such a thing, it was inevitable that some things were a little rushed, and some things were not very perfect, but for these people who had lost their land for many years, they were content to do this.

When the land thawed, many people immediately began to enter the field assigned to them, began to cultivate, farming, this kind of thing, cultivated land is very important, according to the old man surnamed Chen who was invited by Xiao Tianjian as a consultant said, the benefits of deep ploughing can be more, not only can retain water, but also can retain fertilizer, and is conducive to the growth of crop roots, can improve the yield of food, the specific reason is not clear, but the ploughing must be carried out deep ploughing, but this is for the people who farm, are simple truths, Now the fields belong to them, and the grain they hunt is basically theirs, so there is no need for the people of the Xingtian Army to supervise them, they also have how hard they can plough how deep, once the land belongs to a change, the people's enthusiasm for labor will be much higher, and there is no need for anyone to urge them.

At the time of spring ploughing, Xingtianjun himself also left two or three thousand acres of self-reserved land, which were basically connected into a piece of fertile land near Shuangfeng Village and Lotus Village, and the cultivation here was personally participated in by the soldiers of Xingtianjun, and was used as a military reclamation field, and most of the people of Xingtianjun were also from farming before, and they were no strangers to doing this at all, plus Chen Laohan gave them guidance here, so when the people carried out spring ploughing, Xingtianjun also began the work of spring ploughing.

After all, it is the first month near the water, and when Xingtianjun distributed ploughing cattle and farm tools, he did not forget to leave some for himself, and Xiao Tianjian also attached great importance to these military reclamation fields, and personally went to the field to preside over the ploughing ceremony, and with the help of the iron head, he helped the ploughshare to drive the ploughing oxen to plow it himself, and began the spring ploughing work in the sound of firecrackers.

Although the Xingtian Army was currently overstretched, after Xiao Tianjian analyzed the situation, he still ordered only the patrols and the generals on duty to be left behind, and the rest of the people went to work in the fields to reclaim their own land as soon as possible.

The people of the Xingtian Army are all strong laborers, and the cattle and farming tools are in place, and the land is reclaimed very quickly, and in three or four days, the army reclamation field is completely cultivated, and then the land is prepared.

With these people working, Xiao Tianjian couldn't intervene at all, and all he cared about was the variety of grain that was about to be planted.

It is impossible for the Xingtian Army to plant the same thing as the common people, because most of their plots belong to fertile land, and they are also relatively concentrated, in addition to sowing normal spring wheat and sorghum, they also have to set aside a part of the land to grow vegetables, although they are not very short of food at the moment, but it can be said that there is a shortage of vegetables, people can not eat only staple food, vegetables are also necessities, while solving the problem of being full, they must also solve the problem of soldiers eating vegetables, so the Xingtian Army is in their military reclamation fields, A part of the land was specially allocated for planting vegetables, not to mention that the soldiers should be allowed to eat vegetables in winter, at least in spring, summer and autumn, they should be able to eat some fresh vegetables, and they should also reserve some pickles in winter, Xiao Tianjian was by no means sloppy in this matter.

And the sowing of ordinary crops Xiao Tianjian can not be too concerned, he is most concerned about the corn and sweet potatoes he has at hand, this thing has not yet been popularized in the hinterland of China, and there is no place to find seeds and roots, so the only seed on hand is the original seed that they will expand in the future, Xiao Tianjian does not dare to have the slightest carelessness.

For this reason, he specially found Chen Laohan to be in charge of this matter, and handed over the corn seeds and sweet potatoes to him to be responsible, and Chen Laohan is very familiar with the cultivation of other grains and vegetables, but for these two new things, it is also the first time to plant, and he does not know their habits very well.

So Xiao Tianjian searched his stomach and collected some knowledge about these two crops in his mind, and told Chen Laohan, who shook his head and said, "This is not easy to do!" The corn that the general said sounded a bit like sorghum, but according to the general, this thing could not be planted until after the summer harvest, and if it was planted early, it was estimated that it would be difficult to germinate! Little old man didn't dare to take this risk! If these seeds are wasted, the child will not be able to afford it! To be on the safe side, with Xiao Lao'er's idea, at least after April, you can plant this thing, in that case, the weather will be hot, and the problem will not be too big!

But sweet potatoes, according to the general, can still be planted right now, this thing is cut first to let them sprout, and then planted in the ground! This kind of thing is not troublesome, according to what the general said, this thing can produce thousands of catties of land per acre, but the little old man can't believe it, what can produce so much! If this thing can be a few thousand catties per acre of land, how many people can it feed! ”

Xiao Tianjian is not an expert after all, squatting on the ridge that has just been built, and said to Chen Laohan: "I'm just hearsay, how to plant it, it depends on your father-in-law!" In short, I have a request, the yield is easy to say, I don't want them to produce too much in the first year, but the boss should try to keep these species, can't be extinct! Once it is extinct, there will really be nowhere to find it in the area here in the future! If once planted, it is necessary to select the good varieties and then multiply! I'll leave this matter to you, uncle! You'll have to worry about it! If you want anything, you can go to Master Jin! ”

Chen Laohan hurriedly nodded and agreed, reassuring Xiao Tianjian, he would definitely protect these things as eyeballs, and he would never let them go extinct, and he also proposed a way, that is, plant in batches, plant a little first, and then try to plant a little bit every month in the future, so that after a year, you will know when it is best to plant, and there will be no harvest due to weather.

Xiao Tianjian heard that this method was good, so he asked the old man to try to do it, as long as he did it in the first year, he would know how to plant it in the second year, who let him live in the city when he was a child, and he didn't learn agriculture, so this kind of thing can only be done.

Once the spring ploughing begins, things have gradually decreased, the people are busy and start farming, it is difficult to let people come out to make trouble, not to mention that this year for them, it is also the first year they planted their own land, almost all of them are full of spirit, intensive cultivation for fear of serving this season of grain, and as long as this year does not encounter too much drought, this season of grain harvest, they do not have to pay rent, the future of this day will be much better.

But there are also a very small number of greedy lazy people, after receiving the grain seeds given to them by the Xingtian Army, they actually did not take them to plant, but first used these grain seeds to get a few good meals for themselves, and when it was time to farm, but there were no seeds, so they ran to the chief guards to ask for grain seeds.

The result was that after letting Xiao Tianjian know, he ordered someone to take back their fields without saying a word, and directly beat them up and drove them to the mining site to be reformed through labor.

With such a precedent, no one dared to take care of their fields carelessly, and after the beginning of spring, in the jurisdiction of the Xingtian Army, there was a busy scene everywhere in the wasteland.

And Xiao Tianjian could finally take a long breath, so he left Lotus Village again and headed towards Shuangfeng Village.
