Chapter Ninety-Nine: A Harvest

After a while, Steward Sheng and the servant came out carrying a black wooden box.

The helpers who didn't leave all looked at the black wooden box curiously and secretly guessed.

"Be quiet, my young master said, for the sake of safety, I will pay you now.

Those who have been paid have all taken care of it.

Don't make trouble yourself, say that my young master didn't send it. Steward Sheng stood on the black wooden box and looked at the black pressed head.

"That can't be, the little owner has paid us, and we can't ask for a second time." Old man Hu responded with a smile.

When everyone heard that they were going to be paid, they were all happy.

For those who come to work for the first time, the money is the most reliable only when it is in their own hands.

When everyone gets their wages in full, they are happy to see their teeth and eyes.

Holding the broken silver and copper coins, he counted and counted, and bit out a few rows of tooth marks on his upper teeth, before he wrapped them contentedly and put them close to his body.

The woman who invited the kitchen to help and Shi Liu's mother were the three who were the least paid.

But each of them had an income of two taels of silver, which was equivalent to their income in a year.

There was food and take, and there was a salary, so that the women were very satisfied.

The diligent woman does not rest and chat like a man, but has a lively look in her eyes.

I hope to leave a good impression on the small owner, and I can come to work when recruiting workers in the future.

It is better to have the opportunity to work for many years, not to mention saving one person's rations for the family, eating well and living well, and the salary is not low.

Early in the morning, after Steward Sheng distributed wheat and dried fish to each helper, Wang Xingwang and Hong Feiyang went out to sea with the boat.

Because of the abundant manpower of Daxia Castle, the original temporary shipwrights no longer have to go out with the ship.

And Wang Xingwang's five shipwrights took the initiative to sell themselves to Ziyu and became real Daxiabao people.

Wang Xingwang became a bare-pole boat boss with only boats, and he had to ask the people of the Ziyu family to help him when he traveled.

Fortunately, the two complement each other, but every time they go to sea, Ziyu pays Wang Xingwang only forty taels for the ship.

In the case of the open sea, it is one hundred taels.

Because all the expenses and people on the ship belong to the Ziyu family, of course, the ship price should be less.

The boatman who goes to sea will pay 200 yuan at a time.

Everyone is happy, and the enthusiasm of the boatmen who go to sea is still very high.

When only one of its own people is left in the grain, the rice harvest begins.

The yellow ears of rice are hidden in the yellowing rice leaves, and Chen Da, who is in charge of farming, grows on the edge of the field every day.

I often squatted on the edge of the field and smirked, and sometimes I had to shout to Chen before going home when it was dark.

Tiedan, Wang Xingwang's family, and Bao Jiu's family, as soon as they heard that Ziyu's family was going to harvest rice, the three families also gathered at the edge of the rice field.

Waiting for Ziyu's order, they opened the sickle to harvest their respective five acres of rice fields.

Standing on the wide ridge, Ziyu, dressed as a farmer, held a sharpened custom sickle and held it high.

"Open the sickle!"

Ziyu was the first to go down to the rice field where the water was drained, and went down with two knives, cutting off a heavy straw.

The people lined up on the ridges of the fields went down to the fields and bent down to harvest, and they looked cautious, for fear of hurting the straws.

The lively scene of men, women and children working together is staged in the depths of this mountain.

Chen Da, who was in charge of selecting grain seeds, walked around the edge of each field, and the basket on his shoulder gradually sank.

The strength of the population is great, and nearly 600 acres of rice will be harvested in five days.

The dam and the yard are covered with grains, and in this sunny summer, they are dried in the sun and the wind is too clean.

Ziyu, who counted it himself, heard the bursts of gasps around her, and laughed so hard that she couldn't close her mouth.

A bunch of people who have never seen high yields, this is where to go!

"A total of 2,400 quintals, with a yield of 400 catties per mu, I'm not happy!"

Ziyu quickly calculated the total number and yield per mu, and smiled at a group of people who were so shocked that they couldn't speak.

This little yield per mu is a bumper harvest for a group of aborigines.

But for Ziyu, it is really 108,000 miles away.

But she is very proud, and the valley that was overgrown with weeds and uninhabited last year is now fertile land and surrounded by houses.

The yield of wheat per mu is 300 catties, and the yield of rice per mu is 400 catties, which is already a high yield compared to the output of one or two hundred catties per mu outside.

"Wow! We've got food, we've got food! ”

Chen Da, who woke up the fastest, rushed out of the yard like crazy.

"Hahaha, there's food!"

"There's food! Young Master Xie, Young Master Xie! ”

……

There were people crying and laughing, and they knelt down and kowtowed to Ziyu.

With this food, it means that they will never have to go hungry again.

If they had produced this kind of production before they were sold, they would not have been sold into slavery.

Everything is fate, so that they can meet the little young master in front of them.

The people who kowtow, whether they were former or new, are grateful from the bottom of their hearts for bringing them a new life.

"Get up!

As long as you are from Daxiabao, you can eat white rice, live in a solid house, and wear warm clothes.

As long as you are loyal to Daxia Castle, you will all live a good life.

They began to divide the grain, and each person who lived in the new house had 40 catties of rice and 15 catties of wheat per month.

If you eat fish or something, it's up to you to get it yourself, and I don't care!

The vacant land is still too late to plant autumn vegetables, and each person goes to Steward Sheng to receive a small bag of seeds.

After the beginning of spring, give each house a vegetable plot, you can also raise chickens and ducks, pigs or forget it!

Other necessities of life will also be given to you in the right amount.

There are rewards for good performance, just like Chen Da.

He has a great credit for the abundant grain harvest in the valley.

Ten taels of silver and one piece of cotton. ”

Chen Da, who came back from a crazy run, was as happy as a big fool, and kept throwing his hand at Ziyu.

"Young Master Xie, Young Master Xie!

The little one will strive to grow better crops next year, and he will have to work hard for this reward of the young master. ”

Of the fifty people who bought later, only Shi Ziming, who could plant fruit trees, was arranged to live in a house at the mouth of the valley, and two houses with attics for a family of five were just enough to live.

Forty-five subordinates, and five boatmen who lived in the sixth courtyard, were placed in the newly renovated stone houses.

The seven middle-aged male servants who originally lived in the compound were also assigned to live in a stone house, and the two servants stayed behind to run errands.

There are four people in a room, and the pots and pans in the house are complete, and the fire is opened separately to save the work of Bao Jiu.

When the farming season is busy in the coming year, eat a big pot of rice.

After everyone settled down happily, it was time to break sticks, harvest soybeans, peanuts, and other farm work.

Ziyu handed over everything to Steward Sheng to arrange, and asked him to send someone to Kan'er Village to help with the autumn harvest.

There are Hong Feiyang and Snow Wolf in the valley, and there are two strong gates, so there is no need to worry about safety.

She boarded a merchant ship and prepared to go to Jiangfu to ask for professionals such as Mr. Shu, Master Wu, and Doctor.

I also took this opportunity to see the changes outside, I haven't been out of the valley for a year, and I don't know anything about the outside.
