Chapter 314: Fighting Thieves (Five Watches)
"After deep ploughing, this plough will be deeply ploughed one foot deeper." Ye Sanniang gestured with her fingers, "Deep ploughing is to turn the salt in the surface soil to the bottom of the cultivated layer, and turn the soil with less salt in the lower layer to the surface." Tillage can loosen the tillage layer, weaken the evaporation of soil water, and effectively control soil salinity. "The best time to plough saline-alkali land is in spring and autumn. Spring and autumn are the seasons when the return of salt is relatively heavy. Autumn ploughing is also beneficial for killing pests in the soil. β
"Pests?" Lin Wenlong said in surprise.
"The pests were turned underneath and suffocated without air." Ye Sanniang looked at them with beady eyes and said.
"Buried alive!" Lin Wenlong said with a smile.
"Yes!" Ye Sanniang said with a smile, "Deep ploughing is also conducive to removing weeds, which is definitely worth advocating." Then he added, "It is also necessary to rake the ground in a timely manner, which can loosen the topsoil and prevent salt return." Harrowing the land should be timely, shallow spring ploughing, rushing ambush ploughing, early autumn ploughing, ploughing dry but not wet. He raised his index finger and said, "In the end, we still have to apply more fertilizer, and the crops are all dependent on dung." β
"Is it that simple?" Lin Wenlong looked at her with some shock and said.
"It sounds simple, but it's not easy to do at all." Lord Lin frowned lightly and tilted his head slightly to look at his naΓ―ve son and said, "It's not a family, it's something that our whole county has to do." Farming is the hardest work, and you can't fake it. β
"But this is a point of hard work, a point of harvest, how much you pay, it will return you as much, it will not be useless work." Ye Sanniang's eyebrows were raised lightly, her dark and deep eyes were full of smiles, and she looked at them and said.
"Hmm!" Master Lin smiled widely when he heard this, looked at her with arched eyes, and said seriously, "Thank you." β
"Thanks for what?" Ye Sanniang looked at him gently and said, "Only if you curb the wind and sand and the salinization of the land, can we farm better, otherwise it will expand, and sooner or later it will affect us." He said solemnly, "So it's a matter for your county alone." β
"That's why you're here." Lord Lin looked at her in surprise and said.
"Yes!" Ye Sanniang said unabashedly, "This really can't be left alone." β
"Can you please write it down Mrs. Ye?" Lord Lin looked directly at her and said.
"No problem." Ye Sanniang replied happily, listening to the wind raging outside the cabin, and couldn't help but say worriedly, "This house won't be blown down by the wind!" β
"No, it has stood for so many years, and no matter how strong the wind is, it can resist." Lord Lin said confidently, "Every year in the summer, I will come to repair it." β
"Let's use other people's firewood, what should we do?" Ye Sanniang said worriedly.
"The villagers in this neighborhood come from time to time to replenish firewood." Lord Lin said with a smile when he heard this.
"That's good." Ye Sanniang looked at them with bright eyes and said, "Oh! The water is boiling. β
Gao Mancang took the clay pot on the fire and poured four bowls of water.
After drinking the water, they lay down around the fire and their clothes, and rested.

After turning the day, the wind stopped, nibbling on steamed buns, and Ye Sanniang, who was full of food and was about to leave, was startled by the noise outside the house.
"What's going on?" Ye Sanniang raised her eyes and looked outside, she couldn't see anything blocked by this door.
"The wind has stopped, let's go and see." Lord Lin handed the baked steamed bun in his hand to Lin Wenlong and said, "Take it, I'll go out and have a look." "I got up, opened the door, and went out.
This time I heard it clearly, shouting, shouting, "Beat him, beat him......"
The muffled grunt of the twigs whipped against his body was endless.
"What are you doing?" Lord Lin looked at the seven or eight men from a distance and said.
Everyone looked over, recognized Lord Lin, and said excitedly, "Lord Lin is you!" β
"How do you beat someone!" Lord Lin watched them wave the branches in their hands and said unhappily, "Stop, stop." β
A man who was tied up with five flowers was pushed by them.
"He stole my sorghum."
"Shouldn't stealing be beaten? You deserve to be killed. β
"Lord Lin......" The tied man knelt down, "It's not that I want to steal, but the doll at home is too hungry." He walked towards Lord Lin and said, "Lord Lin, Lord Lin, look, you see that this hungry person is swollen. I stole a bowl of sorghum rice and told the children to eat it, please. β
Bang Bang Bang, head knocked in the yellow sand......
"You can't hit people either! They are all from the villagers of a village. Lord Lin looked at them and said, "Loosen up, let go." β
"Lord Lin, I just asked him to return the sorghum rice, but he didn't give it back to him, so we tied him up."
"If you don't pay it back, if you don't pay it back, my family will starve to death." The man kneeling on the ground gritted his teeth and said.
Ye Sanniang came out of the cabin, the weather is fine today, the sky is blue, tiles are blue.
Ye Sanniang thought that she was in the desert Gobi, with rolling sand dunes clearly visible in the distance, and yellow sand everywhere nearby.
A few places of dry grass and purple paulownia are deeply rooted in the sandy soil and stand tall.
"Listen, what's that called? Your family is dying of hunger, so my family will not starve to death. β
The branch in his hand slapped on the man's body, banging......
The clothes are thin, and they are whipped like this, and the clothes are whipped one by one.
"You shouldn't steal anything if you don't eat! My family's life is not easy either! β
"You stole it, what should I do?"
"A bowl of sorghum rice, you won't starve to death!"
"What did he say?"
"Stop, stop." Lord Lin stepped forward and snatched the branch from their hands and said, "What right do you have to beat people!" He looked at the branch in his hand and threw it aside.
"I ...... I ......" He looked at Lord Lin aggrievedly, the tears fell down, knelt on the ground and said, "Lord Lin, I can't live this day." β
"You ......" Lord Lin looked at the bitter master in front of him, and was interrupted by someone as soon as he began.
"Her father, his father ......"
"Daddy......"
A peasant woman with a child in her arms and five or six children by her side rushed to the man who stole sorghum, crying and shouting, "Why are you beating people?" β
"Daddy......"
Lord Lin and Lin Wenlong stepped forward to untie the hemp rope on the man who was tied up with five flowers.
Ye Sanniang watched the children barefoot in winter, wearing ragged clothes, shivering from the cold.
The peasant woman wept as she pulled out the twine, "Tie it up!" Don't whip! Look at how you can wear this garment! It's not warm in the first place, but now it's showing flesh. β
The children cried and shouted, "Daddy, Daddy......"
"I remember you, you are from Huangjia Village, Huang Youtian, Huang Lizheng." Lord Lin looked at Huang Youtian, the bitter lord who was still kneeling on the ground.
