and weeds and trees, and ploughed the fields to loosen the soil. Thousands of pairs of peasants went to the ploughing fields, the depressions and the slopes.

"Liang Yun": Tian Jiale Tu

This poem was produced in the early Western Zhou Dynasty, that is, in the context of the great development of agriculture in the Cheng and Kang periods. Later, through the efforts of King Wen of Zhou and King Wu of Zhou, the father and son of King Wen of Zhou and King Wu of Zhou, the decadent rule of the Yin Dynasty was finally ended, and the Western Zhou Dynasty was established with the call of respecting heaven and protecting the people, thus liberating the productive forces to a certain extent and improving the enthusiasm of slaves to engage in large-scale agricultural production.

This poem is a true portrayal of the large-scale agricultural production of the Zhou Dynasty at that time, and in the poem, we can see that the plowshares used by the serfs at that time and the tools used to hoe weeds were made of metal, which is already a great progress. The poem traces the scene of spring ploughing and summer ploughing, the scene of the harvest in autumn, and finally writes the scene of rewarding the gods in autumn and winter.

When spring came, the male serfs were digging deep into the south acres of land with their hands in hand, and the sharp plows made a rapid forward clatter. The seeds of various crops are then sprinkled into the soil and allowed to grow, germinate and grow. After they worked until they starved, the women and children of the family carried square baskets and brought them fragrant yellow rice. When the seedlings were ploughed in the hot summer, the scorching sun was in the sky, and the serfs wore hats woven with straw ropes, and the hoes of the weeds pierced into the soil to hoe off all the debris such as tu and knotweed. After rotting, the knotweed turned into fertilizer, and the large green millet and millet grew gratifyingly.

At the time of the autumn harvest, a cheerful picture is displayed. The sound of the sickle of harvesting crops came and went, like the rhythm of music, and all kinds of grain were soon piled up into mountains, which looked like high walls from high places, and dense comb teeth from both sides, so hundreds of granaries lined up to collect grain and put it into storage. Every granary was filled with grain, and the women and children were beaming. The people take food as the sky, and they will not panic when they have food, so that they can live a stable life.

The ploughshare is really sharp in the soil, so go to the south to plow the land first. Hundred grains are sown in the field, and the grains are full of vitality.

Someone came to see you with a basket and a basket filled with millet rice.

Wearing a hand-woven straw hat and a hoe to turn over the soil, the weeding field has to be cleared.

The weeds rot and are used as fertilizer, and the crops grow really densely. The scythe reaped sounded, and the grain was piled up.

Look at the high place like a city wall, look at the sides like combs, and the granaries are open and unclosed.

The granaries were full, and the women and children were in good spirits. The black-lipped scalper is really beautiful.
