The land tax to be paid is a fixed amount, and five liters of grain must be handed over per mu of land, not according to a few percent of the yield per mu.

The tax is five litres of grain, and if the land is rented, it is also rented.

The amount of rent to be paid is not determined, it depends on the amount specified by the owner of the field, but under normal circumstances, seven to eight liters of grain must be handed over for each mu of land, and even a bucket of grain is required.

The average yield per mu is only more than two buckets, and one bucket is ten liters of grain, that is, more than 20 liters.

Therefore, even if the landlord's land is rented, if the harvest is not good, the farmers will simply not have enough to eat, which is very miserable.

Ye Qingyu also had a plan in her heart about collecting rent, as long as the tenant returned the relief grain she had given before, she didn't want the grain to pay the rent, as long as some of the cash crops in the field, such as cotton, jute, spring peanuts, etc.

The reason is that each household was allocated ten acres of wheat in their hands before, but because she wanted to experiment with intercropping, almost every family had four acres of land to plant other cash crops, which damaged the grain reserves in everyone's hands.

When those tenants heard that Ye Qingyu was no longer collecting rent, they were so grateful to Dade that they couldn't wait to offer Ye Qingyu and burn high incense for her every day.

Because the yield per mu in the field has increased, the tax has not increased, and there is no need to pay rent, as long as the previous relief grain is repaid, so for a while, these peasant households have a lot of grain in their hands, and they can eat abundantly until next year.

Not only food, but also harvested cotton, which can be kept to make cotton clothes and quilts, and they are not afraid of cold in winter.

For them, it's a real harvest!

Therefore, after the corn was planted, the farmers' enthusiasm for farming became even higher, and they were not lazy at all, hoping that the harvest in the field would be better.

-

After a month of busy farming, it is basically midsummer, and the trees are screaming endlessly, and the weather is also hot and irritable, wilting, and without appetite.

Ye Qingyu's appetite has decreased greatly because of the hot weather, and he can't eat too much meat, and he especially wants to eat cold things.

However, she is a pregnant woman, and it is not good to eat something too cold.

Ye Qingyu used watermelons, melons and other melons and fruits to make all kinds of shaved ice, but she commanded Luomei to do it, and it was also for others to eat and relieve the heat, and it was not her share.

She was also able to eat a watermelon that had been cooled from the well water, and she was very depressed.

"If you get too hot, put some ice in the house." Xu Jingnan said, "The ice at home is still enough. ”

The ice cellar at home was still made by Ling Ba at the beginning, and a large amount of ice cubes were stored, which made Ye Qingyu not too difficult this summer.

"I don't need to put it down, it's not that hot." Ye Qingyu was lying on the bed, shaking the fan gently, very unenergetic.

Xu Jingnan looked at her like this, but she was distressed, but she didn't know what to do to make her feel more comfortable.

"Did the cubs make a fuss?" Xu Jingnan put her hand on her big belly and asked gently.

"Well, you just kicked me." The corners of Ye Qingyu's mouth hooked up a smile, and he also put his hand on his stomach.

Xu Jingnan saw that she was a little more energetic, so she continued to talk to her about children, and the two longed to think about whether the two little cubs in their wombs were two male babies or female babies or dragon and phoenix fetuses.
