Night school began, and Li Yu not only had to spare some time to teach children during the day, but also taught adults at night, and even gave Ouyang Xing extra make-up lessons. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 Fortunately, the latter's mind is really good, and the learning speed is beyond his expectations.

Simple Arabic numerals are recognized in one lesson, and addition and subtraction are initially learned. By the third lesson, I had learned the addition and subtraction of several digits, and I had begun to learn multiplication and division.

In fact, a village official does not need too complicated mathematical knowledge, as long as he learns addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, it is enough to estimate. Therefore, Li Yu put the focus of his teaching on literacy. Considering his intelligence, the number of courses has been significantly doubled.

According to his observations, with Ouyang Xing's learning progress, even if he didn't help him strengthen his knowledge, it should be no problem.

As for the ordinary villagers, most of them have memorized the initials and finals and began to learn to read slowly. In the first class, Li Yu taught them to write their own names, fortunately, most of the names are similar, many of them are still clan relations, the surnames are naturally the same, and it is not difficult for all churches.

For these people, learning to write their names is even happier than this year, when they have collected two more buckets of grain and hunted a few more prey. At that moment, although Li Yu knew it in his heart, he once again understood the truth that 'the people are actually very satisfied'.

In the blink of an eye, it was already the time of the autumn harvest, and the people had already begun to harvest the grain. Water is not very abundant in the mountains, so they don't grow rice. It's mainly corn, with some soybeans or something.

Today's village is the result of the merger of two villages, so there is not a lot of land cultivated here. Naturally, the harvest is not much, barely enough for everyone to eat one meal a day, and it is estimated that they should be able to eat the next harvest. So if you want to eat well, you also need to supplement it by hunting.

Since a large amount of game is used to fill the stomach and even make fur coats, there are fewer that can be sold. If there is less to sell, then there will be less income and less to buy.

It's just that the mountain people here are obviously used to this situation, and Zu Lang told Li Yu that there have been such situations before. At this time, they will choose to save a little to get by, and even drink animal blood to replenish the salt in their body. If they can't stand it, they will go down the mountain, maybe to Lingyang, or even in other counties in Qianxian or even farther away, and launch an attack on the estates of those families, plundering food and property.

The rules set by the ancestors in the era that they would not plunder the poor, but only against those big families. In fact, it is mainly those small families, if these families are unable to continue to open estates here, then these lands will be transferred, and then the Zhang family or other families will take action and buy these lands.

It is precisely because of this that no matter how Zu Heng tosses, the great family will not care. Later, he turned his face, but in the end, he still felt that Zu Heng had the ambition to further expand his power, so he planned to nip the danger in the bud; Who knew that Zu Heng directly fought with the Great Family, so the Zhang family made a bloody effort to completely eliminate Zu Heng.

In this way, it is not difficult to see that no matter how strong the ancestor is and how influential he is, he is actually just a plaything kept in the hands of the family.

Li Yu has a system, he can get goods out, and in the past six days, he has saved more than 3,000 prestige points. Even if you exchange it all for salt, you can exchange it for thirteen stones. From a practical point of view, only two stones are enough!

The question is how to explain these things when they come out, but it's a trouble, and you can't conjure them out of thin air, right?

The land survey and planning have been completed, and the entire mountain village has been divided into several places: commercial, residential, agricultural and industrial. Although the commercial district is actually of little use at this stage, since the mountain village is planned to be built into a city, it is necessary to leave the place, otherwise it will not be easy to demolish and relocate in the future.

The agricultural area is divided into four areas: animal husbandry, fishery, forestry and farmland.

In the livestock area, wild boars and deer are raised in captivity, and in a short period of time, the mountain people have helped him hunt six wild boars and eight wild deer. In this way, it is not difficult to see that in this mountain forest, animal resources are still very rich.

The entire livestock farm was contracted by two mountain people, and eight other mountain people were hired to help raise it. According to the contract, the government of the raised boars and Lucun have the right to buy them first, and the price is calculated according to the market price, so they will not suffer a loss.

Before Li Yu came here, the people here didn't seem to have the idea of animal husbandry at all. Therefore, the entire beast circle and management methods were almost carried out under Li Yu's arrangement. Because of this, it is here that priority is given to the contracting system, and there is the least resistance.

In forestry, Li Yu ruled that pregnant females could not be hunted, and juvenile herbivorous beasts could not be hunted. At the same time, an orchard area is planned, and the seedlings will be loaded next spring, and an attempt will be made to optimize them.

There are also general forest areas, including a bamboo forest and other timber areas. The former can weave a lot of things, and bamboo insects and bamboo rats can also be considered for breeding. The latter is used as a source of timber and can be used not only for private use, but also as a commodity for sale. Of course, the timely replanting of new seedlings is also what he emphasized.

This kind of behavior may not be very well understood by the people of this era, after all, the mountains are full of trees, so why should they be replanted. Li Yu didn't bother to explain, saying that if you want to contract, you have to abide by it! Anyway, it's not very difficult to plant, and the contractor will admit it.

The fishing area is mainly a pond not far from the village, which seems to be a collection of mountain springs flowing down from the mountains.

Li Yu meant to open several fish ponds around this pond specifically for fish farming. Mountain people rarely eat fish, this thing smells fishy and has a bit of earthy smell, and it is not easy to catch in the key mountains. At this stage, Li Yu can't change their concepts, mainly because of the lack of cooking methods and ingredients, and he is also a clever woman who can't cook without rice. Therefore, it can only be planned out first, but it cannot be implemented.

The agricultural area is relatively troublesome, and the land that you have reclaimed with great difficulty means that it will be nationalized as a result? In the end, through propaganda, and Li Yu repeatedly assured, they relented.

At present, the land reclaimed in the village is about 6 hectares, and these fields were originally cultivated by more than 100 villagers. The village collects 40 percent of the crops as a tax, and they have 60 percent of the income.

In modern terms, this is already a heavy tax. However, at this time in the Han Dynasty, it was not uncommon for more than 70% to pay for rented land. Even those tenants who sell themselves to the family are just a herd of livestock, tired and tired just for a bite to eat, and what is grown in the field has nothing to do with them, it is better not to starve to death.

There is no way for the village to collect taxes, after all, it is necessary to buy iron to build weapons, build public buildings or fortifications, and train mountain people to protect the mountain village. These can't all let Zu Heng pay money in his own pocket, right?

This is also the case today, after the realization of the state ownership of land, these fields are naturally contracted by more than 100 people. Of course, Li Yu can't say that he doesn't collect taxes, but he relaxed it a little and dropped it to 30% as a contract fee. Without this, I am afraid that the state ownership of land and the contract system will not be able to be implemented.

It's also thanks to the fact that he only has one village under his name, otherwise I really don't know how much trouble there is. However, this is also a good start, and it is not difficult to promote this system with mountain villages as a model.
