Chapter 423: If only the granddaughter-in-law were here
The growing season of sweet potatoes is about three and a half months, and now it has just entered the middle of February, as early as a month ago, when Wang Fang had just started, he ordered all the beggars present to devote themselves to the great cause of reclamation.
This is the original site of Hejiatun and other three Zhuangzi, and there are thousands of acres of barren beach close to the river nearby.
In the past, these were good paddy fields, but unfortunately after being washed by the flood, no one cultivates them.
For more than ten years, the nearby river beach has long been overgrown with weeds, and even fish can be seen in some deep pits that have not yet dried up.
A mute fished around the pit, and as the only able-bodied laborer in the valley, he was ordered to be in charge of the food of a dozen people.
As for the little girl with a mouth full of fangs, she could have been a cook as a cook, but the beggars in the valley really didn't want to eat the food she cooked, and after several strong protests, they finally changed to a dumb cook.
Wang Fang is very pleased with this, since they dare to put forward opinions, it means that they have accepted themselves, and when they dare to make demands with themselves one day, it means that they have trusted themselves.
In a month's time, a total of 60 acres of wasteland were cultivated, a full 12 people, equivalent to two acres a day, and an average of six people only reclaimed one acre a day.
In terms of productivity alone, they are not up to par, but from another point of view, they have done their best.
On this day, when he entered the valley again to visit, Wang Fang brought two old cows, with the opening of the sea ban, the price of goods continued to rise, the price of a cow has risen to about thirteen guan, if it is put in some big cities, it can even rise to the price of thirty guan.
These two are veterans with many years of farming experience, with the addition of two cows, the efficiency of reclamation has been greatly enhanced, in just a few days, there are dozens of acres of fields in the valley again, without Wang Fang's order, Manniang has taken them to sow sweet potatoes.
Six people are responsible for reclamation, six people are responsible for farming, and according to the efficiency of six acres a day, after two months, they will have close to 500 acres of land.
According to the plan of 2,000 catties per mu of land, a total of nearly 1 million catties is still the minimum standard calculated by Wang Fang, and if the growth is normal, it can even reach the standard of 1.5 million catties.
1.5 million catties, which is equivalent to half a month's ration for the entire county, once such a huge grain crop flows into the grain price market in Qingyang City, it is conceivable that the grain price in the county town will definitely drop to a terrifying level.
At the same time, Wang Fang was also thinking about the third step plan, beckoned, motioned to He Yongding, and asked, "How is the inspection of the embankment upstream of the ditch?" ”
As early as half a month ago, Wang Fang instructed He Yongding to go upstream to investigate, but now, judging from his expression, the result is not very ideal.
"This year's rainfall is not abundant, and the amount of water upstream is at least four meters away from the embankment, and if there is no heavy rain at the end of summer, the levee will not break anyway."
"Four meters, that's almost enough."
After a moment of silence, he kept thinking in his mind, the upstream embankment, Wang Fang had not seen it, but before the autumn, there would definitely be more than two more heavy rains, and the water level could be raised to about two meters, only two meters away from the breaking of the embankment.
Two meters, whether it is high or not, whether it is low or not, but at the moment, Wang Fang does not want to pin all his hopes on the flood, if there is really no flood, he does not mind artificially creating a flood.
"I only hope that with the vigilance of the flood, the promotion can go more smoothly."
A flood and the promotion of food crops are more important than this, Wang Fang began to consider it a long time ago, and in the end, he was too lazy to think about the results, and finally left it to God to decide.
If you can harvest it yourself, you will promote food crops, and if you can't harvest sweet potatoes, you will give up the idea of bursting the embankment.
At the same time, just as Wang Fang and He Yongding were chatting, the little girl with fangs ran over and said with a smile: "Uncle Fang, the kid who is about to escape has explained, and Master Man asked you to get the results." ”
He glared at the other party speechlessly, and said viciously: "Shut up, you can't smile at me in the future." ”
The little girl known as Rou'er grinned twice, and after giggling, ran away happily.
She is now Manniang's follower, and she is also her eldest disciple, it is said that Manniang also has a disciple, that is, the woman named Ya Niang, but unfortunately a few years ago, Ya Niang had passed away, when the news came back, Man Niang just shrugged indifferently, and then said in distress: "It seems that the old lady is really alone." ”
can feel Manniang's depression, it is said that on the seventh day when the news came, she also went to the direction of Jinling City in Houshan to burn paper money.
I don't know if I'm crying or not, it is said that Manniang's eyes were red that day, but unfortunately Wang Fang followed him, and when he wanted to peep, he found that he was lost.
When I came back, it was already the next day, and the next morning, everything was calm, and Manniang happily announced that she would accept the little girl with fangs as a big disciple and give her the name Wang Rou'er.
The surname is the surname that follows Wang Fang, and to this day, Manniang already knows Wang Fang's real name, but she has never been willing to call He Tiedan's name, and still calls him Wang Fang according to Wang Fang's previous statement.
According to her, Tie Dan is too ugly, if her junior brother is named Tie Dan, then it might as well be killed by a headlong crash.
On the other side, Wang Fang, who was hit hard, also planned to change his name, to be honest, it doesn't matter if he was called a dog egg, an iron egg, a cow egg or something when he was a child, if he really grew up and was still called an iron egg, it would be really a bit embarrassing.
However, the name change requires the consent of her mother, and she has never come up with a suitable name for her precious son.
It's just that some names similar to He Yonggen, He Yongzhu, He Yongyin, and the like.
Half an hour later, I came to the dungeon where Manniang had been detained before, and now it has been inhabited by a different person.
The member of the beggar organization named Yang Shiyi finally settled down after a month of punishment, but there was always an extra iron chain around his neck, and no one could open it without Manniang's instructions.
When she walked over, Manniang was basking in the sun outside the dungeon, her beautiful figure was exposed to the sun, and two red dots were faintly revealed on her delicate body wearing only a gauze dress.
He Yongding turned around and ran away as soon as possible, during the time he lived in the valley, he had at least learned a truth, if he was disrespectful to anyone, he couldn't be disrespectful to this woman, otherwise, he would end up like Yang Shiyi in the dungeon, and he would even forget his name.
Ignoring Yang Shiyi, who was renamed Wang Mei'er next to Manniang, Wang Fang rushed up directly, grabbed the clothes next to him, buckled them on Manniang, and said angrily: "It's only March now, and you're not afraid of freezing yourself to death." ”
"Where, where, just take it off for a while, if it weren't for you, the old lady wouldn't be too lazy to take it off."
The two slender legs crossed in a different posture, Wang Fang looked at the valley in front of him and said: "Don't flatter Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu is only seven years old this year, even if he is two years old, he is only nine years old, even if he has the heart, he is powerless." ”
