Chapter Fifty-Nine: Replanting

The autumn wind rises, the leaves are yellow, people begin to wear jackets in the morning and evening, and when they give lectures to the children in the morning, the droplets of water dripping from the leaves have a slight coolness.

Wuhua has also grown into a half-sized cow, and when she was young, she was often teased by a group of babies, which made Wuhua very naughty. Sometimes I often play with my head on the baby, and the baby also likes to hold its little horn to pull and pull, and sometimes the five flowers take advantage of the children's inattention to gently go to the top, but fortunately, the five flowers no longer do any dangerous actions after pushing the babies down.

Now that Wuhua is slowly growing up, the children are not at the same level as Wuhua in terms of strength, and they are often hit by Wuhua as a heel. But Wuhua still often likes to play this game with the children, and in the end, Lou Shide and a few naughty children fell to the ground and pretended to be dead when they saw Wuhua coming.

As soon as they saw them fall to the ground, Wuhua was like a victorious soldier, turning his head and snorting and leaving triumphantly, which made people laugh after seeing it. I don't know why Wuhua is very afraid of Jin'er, sometimes Wuhua makes trouble during class, Jin'er just shouts, Wuhua doesn't toss for half a day. But it also likes to stick to Jin'er, every time Jin'er comes from the yard to the river, Wuhua follows step by step, this smart and clever energy is really attractive.

The autumn that the peasant family was looking forward to was received, bending over and waving a sharp new sickle, behind him were rows of grain cut to the ground.

As soon as the millet was collected and loaded into the car, the rhubarb was pulled to the threshing floor, and Ah Hua also pulled Lu Qi around the field. Watching Wuhua grow into a half-big cow and follow Ah Hua around the grain field, the villagers also wanted Wuhua to start working slowly, and it took a long time to put it on, but Wuhua rampage in front of him, trampling the grain on the grain field in a mess.

After walking a few laps, Wuhua lay on the ground, and the four hooves were facing upwards and did not move, which made the villagers who worked crazy at all, and Lao Wang Quan laughed and said that he had never seen such a smart cow when he lived so big, and he played a dead dog in order not to work.

Jin'er also smiled when she looked at it on the side, and untied the rope sleeve from Wuhua's body, as soon as the rope was untied, Wuhua jumped up from the ground with a roll, and rubbed Jin'er's legs affectionately with her neck.

Seeing that Wuhua really couldn't do the work, Jin'er told the villagers that it would be a big deal to buy a few more cows next year, so they would raise the Wuhua and play with it.

After harvesting the millet, there were more than 100 catties per acre. The joy is crazy, and the yield of Qiao Mai newly opened by Zhang Shun is about the same as that of the previous good land. This time the old folks on the new plough and the columb, the old Zhang Shun sat in the field holding the columb, crying, he knew that this year there are these Qiao Mai on the top, although not as delicious as millet and white noodles, this thing at least to ensure that no one dies of hunger.

When the Tang Dynasty was first built, each couple gave 100 acres of land, of which 20 acres were "Yongye Field", 80 acres were "Kou Divide Field" after each Ding was granted the field, and two quintals of Su were handed over every year, called "rent", the war just stopped during the Wude period, the population and Emperor Wen of Sui decreased sharply, ten rooms and nine empty are not exaggerated at all, the wasteland in the countryside can be seen everywhere, as long as you have the ability to open it.

When the grain was received from the family, Xiao Hai, who was the head of the village, collected the taxes in the village, and a few families had a bad life, so Xiao Hai paid for it himself and made up the money to pay the business in the county. When he came out of the county office, according to Xiao Zheng's meaning, he smiled and handed the county lord a small box of golden oil, although it was a passing season, but the county lord Lede put his arm around Xiao Hai's shoulder, and praised Xiao Hai for the fastest tax payment in these two villages, which made people worry about it, work hard, and the township would be yours in the future.

After Xiao Hai came back, he saw Xiao Zheng chatting with his father and Zhang Shun in the pharmaceutical workshop, and the old Zhang Shun had a somewhat embarrassed expression. Seeing Xiao Hai come back, Xiao Zheng smiled and said I just have something to look for you, I just discussed with Zhang Shun, and I was going to plant wheat on the three hundred acres of land newly opened by Lao Zhang, Zhang Shun said to Xiao Zheng: "Mr. Xiao, other old men don't dare to say, but this old man is a good way to farm the land, this wheat is a good thing, the soup cakes and pot helmets made of ground noodles are delicious and chewy, but this wheat is planted with a lot of water, these fields we open are at a high place, if you really plant wheat and other watering, The people on our two Zhuangzi are not enough to water the ground, and the old man advises you to accept this thought."

After hearing this, Xiao Zheng said to Zhang Shun: "Old man, aren't you just worried about not going to this water now, but if this water goes up, the kid also guarantees that you can water this field now, can you do it?" ”

"! My old man must do it, in fact, the old man also understands in his heart that your Mr. Xiao is the life-saving benefactor of our dozens of people, but the old man also has to think about these dozens of people, once the wheat is planted and there is no water next year, these dozens of people will drink the northwest wind. If Mr. Xiao can lead this water up, we will definitely plant wheat, but the old man also wants to see if you have any way to make this water go up, but you are still the dragon king."

pointed to Xiao Hai's father beside him, told Zhang Shun that he was the Dragon King, took out the drawings in his sleeve, and told Zhang Shun to tell Old Man Xiao about the production method of this waterwheel before he came out. Although the terrain of these fields you are driving now is a little higher, with this waterwheel, no matter how high it is, it can be sent to you.

After explaining the purpose of this waterwheel to Zhang Shun, the old man turned around and walked out of the house, and after a while, he brought more than a dozen men over, just do it, and find the Zhao carpenter from Shenhe Bay.

Everyone was not too busy after harvesting the crops, but when they heard that Mr. Xiao and Zhang Shun were making farm tools that could lead water to high places, they were all interested. The people on the two farms often come and go, and the croppers instinctively want to help when they see that there is work to do. Even Mr. Xiao was busy, and he couldn't save face if he didn't help out, and the next day more than 100 people came to the open space by the river to make a waterwheel.

Three days later, a watermill more than two feet high was erected on a shelf by the river. Two bearings were sleeved on the wooden shaft of the waterwheel, and the pin was pulled out after the rack was up, and the waterwheel turned happily under the drive of the river. The bucket made of bamboo tube pours the water into the trough, and the bamboo is opened as a water pipe rack, and the water goes up to the dry field at once.

The villagers saw that the waterwheel competition they made was so magical, and one or two of them also cheered around the waterwheel. Taking advantage of this excitement, he simply continued to do it with all his might, and only used one large, two small and three waterwheels, and the water in the river was all poured into three hundred acres of land.

Lao Zhang Shun told Xiao Zheng in front of the villagers that he would listen to you Mr. Xiao in the future, and you said that we would plant whatever we wanted, and I would do it, and I quickly went to the county seat to buy wheat seeds and sowed them with a cocoon.

However, what Zhang Shun couldn't understand was that Mr. Xiao planted twice as many seeds as he had planted wheat before, and the sowing density was much larger. Whatever, Mr. Xiao has his own reasons for doing this, and my old man just listens to him.

Three hundred acres of wheat are finished, and the Mid-Autumn Festival is near.
