Of course, the summer harvest has nothing to do.

After harvesting the beans on her 200 acres of farmland, she reorganized the land and planted pasture, and used tons of buckets to draw water from the Qianhe realm to water the ground.

Qi Ke, who was idle, took the opportunity to busy her papermaking workshop, Jia Ji Ship's fleet transported paper-making raw materials from other places one by one, and the villagers were busy harvesting and grabbing seeds from morning to night in the farmland with a drop of sweat, and they also paid attention to Qi Ke's paper mill was preparing to start, and it was clear that the raw material pool was already storing water and leaching material.

The rabbits sent down above have become the best meat supplement for the villagers at this time, but it is not easy for the village to have a bit of public property, and the two village chiefs are reluctant to eat the rabbits like this, so they took the time to find Qi Ke to help readjust the number of males and females, eat part of it and raise a part, and use the fecundity of rabbits to have a batch of newly grown rabbits in the New Year.

The rabbits that were picked out to be eaten were sent to the cyclamen inn, where they were deboned and finely diced and burned together with the equally chopped pork roots to make a thick soup like a rice bowl.

The boats that carried people in the county came once a day, and at first they were all girls under the age of ten, but halfway through the summer harvest, boys began to appear.

These boys first of all, their parents died, because of their young age, they didn't accept the army Bai Jiajun, they could only live in the county, hungry and full, and they were easily tempted by street gangs, but there were also those who knew that they were bad, and they were not afraid of losing face at the young age, and went to the door of Jia Ji Boat Company to kowtow and sell themselves, and some boys still had younger brothers and sisters under their knees, so they simply did not ask for money to sell themselves, but only to have something to eat.

Qi Ke couldn't help but make an exception when he didn't accept pregnant women, these little boys begged to come to the door, she held back for five minutes and nodded, comforting herself and waiting for the boy to grow up just to replenish the Bai family's army's soldiers, anyway, it would not be wasted.

After opening this opening, there are boys who take the initiative to come every day in the boat company, and they all say that they should not sell their bodies for money when their parents die, and as long as they are not sick and painless, they are accepted, lice, fleas, night blindness, iodine deficiency, calcium deficiency in the big neck, anemia, and lack of all trace elements are not a problem.

These boys, Qi Ke also changed their names and surnames, and uniformly used the surname Bai, and the children of the Bai family army had to be surnamed Bai, and they did not accept rebuttals.

These things, Bai Qing's military post in the county has been truthfully reported, the number of displaced people is too large, I don't know when there will be a riot, recruiting displaced people to join the army is a solution, but the premise is that the imperial court wants to give money to increase the army.

The imperial court had no money.

Because of the great drought in the capital, the people of the capital fled a lot in the first half of the year, and now the capital is half empty, and the imperial court barely maintains it every day, and none of the ministers dare to mention the word money, and Emperor Qian Taiyuan will be furious when he mentions it. The expenses in the palace have been reduced again and again, the palace maids and eunuchs have released a lot of people, and the high-ranking royal family members have been cut off from support, and have been changed to only support three generations of direct blood relatives, and the princes and brothers of Emperor Taiyuan's peers also have to support themselves, and they can't get a tael of silver, and they can't help it, no one dares to say that they are more capable than the emperor's ministers and can reverse this bad situation in one fell swoop.
