There are more than 3,000 households in Lantian County, with less than 20,000 people, and there are more than 1 million mu of cultivated land in public land, of which 60% is private land.

In previous years, his own fields were too busy, so no one rented public land at all, but now Yang Wenhua took advantage of this disaster and relied on hundreds of thousands of people in Guanzhong to make use of all the cultivated land.

Fifty percent of them are planted with corn at the same time, but also interplanted sweet potato vines, 500,000 acres of land only use 500,000 catties of seeds, how large the spacing can be imagined, so there is no impact on the interplanted sweet potato vines at all.

The remaining 500,000 acres of land, in addition to dozens of acres of potatoes as seeds, are all planted with Chinese cabbage, and it is foreseeable that the whole winter of Guanzhong this year will be filled with the smell of Chinese cabbage and corn.

One person and two acres of land, it only took three days to plant all the things, and it was time for the Guanzhong people to settle the bill and leave.

In addition to exchanging a pound of corn seeds, many people still brought back the remaining plastic paper money, ready to continue to exchange for kelp and taro, and only a very small number of well-off families were willing to exchange for Yang Wenhua's chickens and ducks.

A pound of corn seeds can only be planted on an acre of land, how can a family take care of it, in the case of the imperial court exempting all taxes, the production of a pound of corn seeds is enough for a family to save their lives.

Chickens and ducks, on the other hand, are not necessary.

Even if the price given by Yang Wenhua is very favorable, only half of the 200,000 chickens and ducks are exchanged, and many businessmen want to buy it when they see that it is profitable, but Yang Wenhua is unwilling to sell it to them at a low price.

At this time, it was already the beginning of June, and the dozens of acres of peanuts planted by Yang Wenhua were already ripe, although they were still almost hot to make seeds, but they could be boiled and eaten by tender peanuts, but it was completely okay.

When Yang Wenhua took the third sister and her group of little sisters to dig peanuts, Chen Siwei, the county magistrate of Ningmin County, came over.

It was the middle-aged man who took 10,000 Ningmin County residents, including 3,000 old and weak women and children, who claimed to be a student to Yang Wenhua on the river embankment.

At this time, he called Yang Wenhua affectionately one by one, and helped tear off the peanuts dug up by Yang Wenhua one by one, and became a mud monkey in an official uniform.

Seeing that he was working hard, the third sister dug out peanuts more and piled them in front of him, and also instructed her students to dig more piles for Chen Siwei.

Yang Wenhua saw that he was a little pitiful, so he beckoned him aside to drink saliva and rest.

"Take those corn and cabbage seeds back and plant them, even if this disaster year has passed, see what you want to plant next spring, plan first, and then come here to get the seeds."

Chen Siwei rubbed the soil on his hands, took the water bowl handed over by Yang Wenhua, thanked him, poured a few sips hard, and waited for his breath to be even, before he spoke.

"This is all the teacher's work, the students have lived for 40 years, and there are always corpses all over the field in every disaster year, and there are countless people who sell their children and daughters, but this year is such a disaster, but the people still have enough to eat, and the teacher's merits are immeasurable!"

Yang Wenhua listened to it and scolded with a smile: "Don't pat yourself on the back, just say what you want." ”

Chen Siwei still didn't say his purpose, but asked: "The student heard that last month, when the rye grass here was in excess of demand, he asked Steward Yang to harvest and dry it and store it?" ”

Rye is like that, it can be harvested once in half a month in summer, but in this summer, when there is a lot of sunshine, the harvest interval is even shorter.

If you don't harvest it, it gets old, and then it blooms, and once it blooms, don't think about reaping it all the time.

"Yes, it was indeed stored and used as feed for livestock after the snow."

After getting Yang Wenhua's confirmation, Chen Siwei hurriedly asked: "Is it okay to make chicken and duck feed?" ”

"Yes."

Chen Siwei's breathing immediately became heavy, and he said in a somewhat hoarse voice: "The students want ryegrass seeds, chickens, ducks, rabbits, and piglets, but the students don't have any money now." ”

Looking at Chen Siwei, who was like a child in front of him, looking at him with his eyes, Yang Wenhua sighed.

"Even if it is given to you, what does the land of Keningmin County produce, and the imperial court needs to be the master, how can you develop it?"

Seeing that Yang Wenhua had the intention of agreeing, Chen Siwei was instantly excited, and quickly explained: "The student can, as long as the teacher is willing to lend money to the student, the student can do it."

This year, the imperial court will not care about the cultivation in the county, and wait until next year, as long as the people see that it is profitable, and when they finish dealing with the cultivation errands of the imperial court, there will be wasteland.

And ryegrass is produced a lot, as long as some wasteland is opened up at will, it can meet the needs of livestock, and in a few years, when Ningming County becomes rich, the imperial court should not be so strict. ”

Chen Siwei is not a child of a big family, from a lizheng in the former Sui Dynasty to a county official, it took twenty years step by step to achieve the position of the county leader, and there is no need to say much about the hardships.

If nothing else, the rest of your life will stop here, Yang Wenhua's appearance has changed the fate of many people, and for such a person who knows how to seize the opportunity, he will naturally not be too stingy.

What's more, Yang Wenhua's positioning of Ningmin County is also an auxiliary existence of Lantian, so it is good for Ningmin County to develop as soon as possible.

"Well, you make a charter first, see what you need, and come back to me tomorrow."

Seeing that Yang Wenhua agreed, Chen Siwei immediately laughed, didn't care about the mud and sand on his hands, quickly took out a booklet from his arms, handed it to Yang Wenhua, and said, "Yes, students have charters." ”

Yang Wenhua smiled, took the booklet and read it.

It seems that Chen Siwei has been prepared for a long time, and it is written in detail, not only listing the population of Ningmin County, what things are needed, but also planning what to plant in those places, and even how to cooperate with farmers, there is a complete set of processes.

Chen Siwei also took advantage of the drought to build many small reservoirs at a very low cost.

"Very good, it seems that you have done a lot of hard work, you go to Yang Guo to settle it first, and then come over tomorrow to get the seeds."

In addition, your step is too big, don't cooperate with farmers this year, and rent farmers to use official land for planting.

If the government builds a breeding farm, when the harvest is completed, the farmers will naturally actively participate in it, and things will go more smoothly. ”

After listening to Yang Wenhua's suggestion, Chen Siwei said with some embarrassment: "But the students built many small reservoirs earlier, and they have already spent a lot of money and grain in the county. ”

Looking at Chen Siwei with a ashamed face, Yang Wenhua didn't know what to say, the low productivity not only made the people poor, but even the government and the court were also poor.
