Qiao Hong drove the carriage, and Jing Yi said to the village chief in the carriage: "Uncle Wang, now the autumn harvest is about to start, and after the autumn harvest, I want to tidy up the wasteland, and anyone in our village who is willing to come to work can come to me to sign up." I don't care about eating, and my wages are settled according to the amount of land that has been cleared. If you are qualified to open up one acre of land, I will give you thirty yuan. ”

Jingyi's area of wasteland is also to stimulate the enthusiasm of workers, so that the efficiency can be improved and the wasteland can be sorted out as soon as possible. It's nothing to spend a little more silver.

Wang Xuhuai heard that it was not low to open up an acre of wasteland, and there was nothing else in that wasteland except weeds, so it was not difficult to open up wasteland. If the whole family goes to open up the wasteland, they are not allowed to open up a few acres of land that day.

"Then I'll talk to the villagers. I heard that there are patients in your house, so don't let the people in the village disturb your house, let those who want to work come to me to sign up, and I will give you the list later. I'll just get rid of those who are usually sneaky and tricky. ”

Jing Yi was very grateful when she heard this, "Then thank you Uncle Wang." ”

It was already noon when Jing Yi arrived home, and Qiao Yan had already cooked the meal. Although it can't be compared to what Jingyi did, it's not bad.

Xiao Yilin still eats meat porridge, but as soon as he eats it, he knows that it is not made by a teenager, and the taste is much worse. But he still insisted on eating more than half a bowl and another piece of steamed bread.

After lunch, Jing Yi came over to check Xiao Yilin's pulse.

Xiao Yilin asked, "It's okay to go to the county government to buy land." ”

Jing Yi was overjoyed when he mentioned the purchase of land, "This time it went very well, not to mention that wasteland only cost ten taels of silver, and it was exempted from taxes for ten years." Now I don't have any pressure. As long as there is some harvest in that land, there will be no loss. ”

Xiao Yilin looked at the young man's elated appearance, and his mood became happy, and the corners of his mouth curled up and asked, "What are you going to plant?" ”

She didn't hide that the land was already in hand, "That wasteland is a saline-alkali land, so it doesn't grow crops, and you have to remove some of the salinity in the field first, and you can only grow things when it meets the planting standard."

It is also necessary to grow crops suitable for growing in saline soil. It's too late to plant this year, but if you sort out the land, wash out some of the salinity, and raise the land, you can plant crops next year.

I'm going to plant some cotton or something next year. Now the price of cotton in the market remains high, as long as you can harvest a little, you will not lose money. ”

Xiao Yilin was very interested in the way the teenager managed that wasteland, and he was ready to learn it.

Jing Yi asked Feng Zhi to boil hot water and boil the medicine, and then gave Xiao Yilin a medicinal bath, and then acupuncture.

Half an hour later, Xiao Yilin sat down in the tub again and began to soak in the medicinal bath. Today he obviously felt much more relaxed than yesterday, less painful than yesterday.

After the medicinal bath, it is still acupuncture, and then it is the blood. There is a lot less poisonous blood today than yesterday.

When Jing Yi brought a bowl of medicine to Xiao Yilin again, she still asked Qiao Yan to come over with a new quilt. Let's let Feng Zhi prepare hot water. But today there was a sheet on the mattress.

Xiao Yilin knew at a glance that he would be covered in dirt like yesterday today. I don't know where so much dirt came from in his body.

After drinking the medicine, Xiao Yilin soon couldn't resist the drowsiness and fell asleep. Today he woke up before dinner, and then without anyone else's words, he quickly asked Gu Yu and Feng Zhi to wait for him to bathe.

However, he clearly felt that there was not as much dirt as yesterday today. After bathing, I feel more relaxed.

For dinner, Jingyi still made a well-digested ginseng chicken porridge for Xiao Yilin. The bean sprouts Jingyi gave birth with an ability, and they grew very well and were already ready to eat. Jingyi fried two plates of bean sprouts today.

She also stewed two pheasants, steamed steamed buns as the staple food. Naturally, everyone was very satisfied.

Xiao Yilin was not satisfied with the food at noon, and in the evening, he couldn't help but eat more when he ate the boy's handicraft.

Gu Yu has always been by Xiao Yilin's side, and naturally knows him very well.

"Childe, Gongzi Chu is so good at cooking, I think there will be a chance for her to teach our cooks in the future, so that you can eat delicious meals in the future."

Xiao Yilin heard the words and said, "I'll talk about this later." ”

The next day, Jing Yi and Qiao Hong drove the carriage into the city again, and she had to customize some tools for clearing the wasteland today, as well as tools for farming in the future.

When he arrived in the county seat, Jingyi went to the blacksmith shop to customize some hoes, pickaxes and other farm tools. She saw how good the plough was for ploughing, so she drew her own drawings and asked the blacksmith to make an iron ploughshare according to her drawings.

Jing Yi painted an ordinary ploughshare, but it was much better than this ancient plow. At the very least, it will be much more efficient, and the depth of the cultivated land will be deepened.

Iron tools were relatively expensive in ancient times, and Jing Yi spent dozens of taels of silver at once.

Then Jingyi went to the carpenter's shop to customize the plough pole. She had drawn a drawing of a chaise longue and gave it to the carpenter's master to make two chaise longues together.

She mainly made this recliner for Xiao Yilin. In the future, Xiao Yilin can lie on a recliner in the yard and bask in the sun, which is good for him.

After ordering the tools, Jing Yi went to the market again, and found cumin seeds, and she bought them. Cumin comes from the western region and is both a medicinal herb and a spice. It was a real surprise to meet cumin here.

You can plant some cumin next year, and there will be another spice at home. It is essential when it comes to making barbecues in the future.

Jing Yi and Qiao Hong drove the carriage back, and as soon as they entered the house, Qiao Yan ran over, "Childe, the vegetables in the vegetable field in our backyard have sprouted." ”

Qiao Hong was surprised when he heard this, "Sprouted so quickly?" ”

Jing Yi was not surprised, because she knew that this would happen, but she still pretended to be surprised and said, "I just soaked the seeds in advance, but I didn't expect them to sprout so quickly." I'll take a look, Qiao Hong, you move the things in the cart and drive the carriage to the backyard. ”

Jing Yi walked quickly to the backyard and saw that a bunch of vegetable fields had grown tender green seedlings.

Qiao Hong drove the carriage to the backyard to see the vegetables in the vegetable field. Qiao Hong and Qiao Yan were born in peasant families, and they still know a little about crops. As for a woman like Liu, she doesn't know anything about it.

Feng Zhiai also came to see the vegetable patch in the backyard. Although he has never grown vegetables himself, he also knows some common sense, and the seeds of this vegetable germinate very quickly after just two or three days of planting.

Jing Yi still gave Xiao Yilin medicinal baths and acupuncture in the afternoon.

Two days later, Xiao Yilin felt much better and could get out of bed and walk around on his own.

Jing Yi brought back the farm tools and custom-made recliners this morning, one recliner was placed in her mother's bedroom for her mother, and the other was given to Xiao Yilin.

She asked her mother to make two sets of rectangular cushions suitable for the chaise longue and spread them on the chaise longue, so that it would be comfortable to lie on.
