Chapter 110: Farming
Frankly speaking, the previous conversation was a bit abrupt, but Deng Jiuxuan's way of thinking was also very out-of-the-box, and after reading the secret letter, he basically reacted to what Zhang Buzhou meant.
But what's the use of reacting? You have to admit it's a fact, there are just too few people in the Land of Two Cities.
Although Deng Jiuxuan knew that Zhang Buzhou could probably guess that it would be impossible for an army to come over to fight Shuangcheng in a short period of time, but now there is no need to worry too much, but the hard injury of the population is really helpless, and the population is not a grain crop, it can be ripe once a year!
Of course, there are pros and cons to everything, that is, the loss of the population is not too much, and the existing materials of the Twin Cities can meet the needs of these people to eat, drink and Lazar.
Forget it, there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, so let's tinker with the existing handicap first.
Now that Sheephorn County and Qingmiao County have also returned to Aries City, Zhang Buzhou is naturally a conscription for every family, of course, a militia.
The people are actually very simple, as long as you can show them the benefits, they will naturally support your policy. Zhang Buzhou's policy is so simple, if you have a militia in your family, you are a military household, and you can enjoy the benefits of land reclamation.
Of course, these militiamen mainly grow crops when they are busy with farming.
Time flickered, but it was time to sow seeds, and the wedding date of Xuan Xuan and Zhang Buzhou was getting closer and closer.
As for the Xiao family and the Wu family, there is still no movement, although the old Wu family and the old Xiao family are eager to bring a large army to destroy the twin cities now, but now is the spring planting season, and you want to send troops at this time.
The reason is very simple, not to mention whether the soldiers and horses of the dynasty want to plant crops, just say that in the twin cities, if someone really comes to fight, and you can't plant your crops, then for the friends in the land of the twin cities!
If you can't plant crops, it means that you won't be able to do it this year, and if you don't get it, it means that the family will be hungry.
Are there any cowards in the border guards? It's really like a joke.
On this day, Zhang Buzhou pounded the potatoes out, look at this thing, it has sprouts. In the direction of this sprout, the potatoes were cut into five or six pieces, and the wounds were sprinkled with grass and wood ashes, and then carefully planted in the backyard of the city lord's mansion.
Although the potato is not a precious thing, there are too few seeds, so Zhang Buzhou was subconsciously cautious, and finally planted thirteen.
This thing can still pick up five or six potatoes, plus it is different in time and space, and the size is not small, maybe it is because of the aura in the air?
Zhang Buzhou planted corn after pounding the potatoes, this kind of seed was counted by Zhang Buzhou one by one, a total of ninety-three grains, after a simple soaking, two seeds were lit into a nest.
That cautious energy, Xuan Xuan smiled secretly on the side, Zhang Buzhou planted the corn and potatoes before laying straw mats on top of the corn, which can be regarded as a little bit of heat preservation.
Zhang Buzhou said to Xuan Xuan with a smile when he was done
"Daughter-in-law, do you know what this is? It's hope! ”
Xuan Xuan nodded with a smile, although the marriage has not yet been done, Xuan Xuan always has the feeling that he and Zhang Buzhou are already old husbands and wives.
Not far from this land, there were originally some flowers and plants, and they were also picked up by Zhang Buzhou a few times.
After turning over the whole thing, it was combed into a boxy shape with a rake, and the larger lumps were bulged together to form a space.
What is planted here are those strange seeds of Li Jiugan, as for what they are, Zhang Buzhou may know them if they are ripe.
After all these were done, Zhang Buzhou naturally told the little sisters and guards of Xuan Xuan to guard them well, and don't let any messy things mess up the ground.
Dao Heifeng patted his chest and said that there was no problem, Zhang Buzhou was stunned when he saw it, this woman is really Biao, and you are not afraid of patting your chest away.
Forget it, since Dao Heifeng said so, of course Zhang Buzhou believed her, after all, this thing is estimated to be no idle person who wants to destroy it.
Left and right were crops they didn't know.
After telling him, Zhang Buzhou took Guancheng out of the city to see, now the outside of the city is really in full swing, the simplified version of the Jiujian plough is basically mass-produced, not only the engineer battalion in the army is working overtime in production, but also the blacksmith shop in the city can be regarded as making money.
Far away dare not say, the village in Aries City basically has one, the main labor of the family is now in the holiday stage, one by one pulling the plough behind the family members who follow the plough to plant, the whole scene is very good to talk and laugh.
These small farmers saw Zhang Buzhou and Xuan Xuan from a distance, and they all wanted to say hello, joking that they could have so much land and such good tools, it was all the credit of Zhang Buzhou and Xuan Xuan.
You see, propaganda is still very necessary. Now Zhang Buzhou's reputation is not old or young, nearly 40,000, and he can also exchange 400 gold coins every seven days. Although it is not much, it can be regarded as a harvest, and the balance of gold coins is now nearly 130,000 or so.
Forget it, wait for this time to be busy, research and research, it's not a matter of keeping it!
The thoughts in Zhang Buzhou's mind are always so flickering, and soon the two of them arrived at the public field of the army, and the movement here is very big, the bullock pulls the Zheng'er eight meridians and nine ploughs in series into nine ploughs, and the plough hits the ground quickly, and the transmission device of spiritual power is there to support the plow rake, and it will be replaced when it is consumed to a certain extent.
The two brothers Li Jiugan and Li Jiuying were staring here, and when they saw Zhang Buzhou and Xuan Xuan from a distance, the two brothers came over after a few ups and downs, so they were the cultivators of the Haoyue Realm, and they still had this ability.
After the two came over, they first saluted Zhang Buzhou and Xuan Xuan in turn, although Zhang Buzhou said it several times. But these people said that the ceremony should not be abolished. Zhang Buzhou could only give up, and Li Jiugan said after saluting
"According to the current progress, I am afraid that there will be tens of thousands of acres of public land!"
This is not surprising, although the people from the military household were put back, there are still nearly 4,000 friends who are pure soldiers, from the mountains, and orphans in Aries City, these people have no home.
Or rather, these people's homes are barracks.
So many people are 4,000 mu per person, and they are all Dianxing's cultivation skills, and it is no problem for everyone to tinker with a few acres of land, plus the help of Jiujian Plough and Qianniu, this is really not an impossible thing.
