Chapter 105: Down to the South of the Yangtze River (1)
Soon, the middle of July has arrived, the wheat fields in Liaodong are golden yellow, the heavy ears of wheat are swaying with the wind, the people are full of joy, and it is another good year!
Zhuang Shaoyou mobilized all the people in the county who could participate in the autumn harvest to harvest grain, and he also ran to the farmland on a whim and brandished a sickle, and then the general's personal farming spread throughout the county. Approachable! Love to work! Do it yourself!
When it reached Zhuang Shaoyou's ears, it was a burst of embarrassment, am I so good? It seems that this is the case, the leader farts differently from others!
In ten days, nearly 20,000 people in the county participated in the grain harvesting action, and a total of 180,000 wheat harvested in the 2,000 hectares of wheat fields of the Mojia family, with an average yield of 6 Hu per mu; Zhou Tian's 2,000 hectares of land were sold to harvest 165,000 wheat, with an average yield of five and a half hus per mu;
Because the 8,000 hectares of Juntun field are basically cultivated with war horses as animal power, the harvest is slightly lower, with a total of 600,000 wheat and an average yield of 5 Hu per mu; The remaining 11,000 hectares of wheat fields have harvested a total of 800,000 wheat, and these fields are uneven, some are good and some are good, some are new, some are old, and the average yield per mu is less than five hundred!
The total number of wheat fields in the county, including Wanzi Town, is about 23,000 hectares, and a total of 1,745,000 hectares of wheat are harvested! That's 600,000 more than expected!
Zhuang Shaoyou was also shocked when he received the statistics, I'm dripping! How? But soon I was happy again, how can there be too much food, this is good, enough for the whole county to eat for several years, you can exchange food for things, and you can save it!
It's not certain that this depends on the sky to eat, maybe there will be a bad harvest next year, but even if you apologize and receive home, you won't starve to death, but some places are different, for example, Liaodong.
There are 64,000 households in Liaodong County, and there are more than 300,000 mouths, of course, this is the data of a few years ago, and there must be some changes now, such as Yudi County.
However, there has been a major war in the Liao Pingyuan for two consecutive years, which seriously affects spring ploughing! Last year's Liaodong land was very tight, but due to complex infighting, Gongsun Du did not let himself get involved, and as a result, this year Wuhuan came again, affecting spring ploughing, it is estimated that this year will not survive anyway, if Gongsun Du asks for help from himself, it must be obligatory, now it depends on what Gongsun Du is considering!
After the autumn harvest, Zhuang Shaoyou and Zhou Tian and Wu Liang discussed the matter of going south, and instructed Guoyuan and others that if Gongsun Du came to borrow grain, he could lend it, and he didn't have to wait for him to come back.
Before leaving, Zhuang Shaoyou thought that it was time to go to see Mo Mei and Gongsun Linglong, he had been busy recently, so he hadn't paid much attention to them, he just met and said hello every day, and he didn't pay special attention to it, and now he is a little free, thinking of Mo Mei's hooking eyebrows and eyes, that proud figure!
and Gongsun Linglong too, I couldn't help but think of the last time I was in the yard, I recognized the wrong person and forcibly kissed Gongsun Linglong and put my hand into her clothes, and my heart suddenly became hot!
He is already twenty years old, he is already an older young man in this era, Mo Mei is also nineteen years old, and Gongsun Linglong is eighteen, they are all not small, is it time to follow himself? Thinking of this, Zhuang Shaoyou's heart, which had been silent for a long time, began to surge again.
Zhuang Shaoyou couldn't wait to walk into the yard, but saw three young women under the tree there to cool off, the weather in July was the season of unbearable heat, the clothes of the three were very simple and cool, Mo Mei was wearing a slim coarse linen clothes, the thin linen clothes were stained with sweat and some adhered to her carcass, showing a graceful figure, and a pair of huge protrusions on the upper body seemed to be about to tear out.
Gongsun Linglong was dressed in crimson tight-fitting casual clothes, with a big braid on her head hanging down her neck to the protrusion on her chest, and she sewed the embroidery board on her hand very seriously, Gao Yingying was much younger, only fifteen years old, wearing a bright yellow dress and a pair of sheep's horn braids, looking cute, chattering on the side and eating the Mojia fruits sent from the Great Black Mountain.
Mo Mei and Gongsun Linglong were both embroidering flowers, chatting about the sky with or without a match, only Gao Yingying had nothing to do, so she was the first to find Zhuang Shaoyou coming, and suddenly her eyebrows rose upside down, she stood up and picked up the wooden stick next to her and rushed over, shouting in her mouth: "Big villain!" I will teach you a lesson for my father! ”
Zhuang Shaoyou had a headache, this guy had never met, let alone provoked her, when she was trading in Xi'an Ping last time, she scolded herself as soon as she met, and by the way, she also scolded Gongsun Du, saying that she was a bad villain than Gongsun Du, it seems that her reputation in Goguryeo is really bad! Otherwise, how could this princess hiding in the palace have such a bad attitude towards herself?
Zhuang Shaoyou caught the chopped wooden stick, snatched it down quickly, and then grabbed Gao Yingying with a grappling hand, Gao Yingying struggled a few times and didn't break free, and immediately cried.
Mo Mei and Gongsun Linglong on the side were all frowning, looking at Zhuang Shaoyou with an unkind expression, and Mo Mei first opened his mouth and scolded: "Zhuang Shaoyou! What are you doing! Hurry up and let go of Yingying! ”
Zhuang Shaoyou is very aggrieved and innocent, who am I provoking to provoke whom? I was going to take advantage of it today, but I didn't expect it to be like this, the three women didn't want to see themselves, and they couldn't find the reason yet, thinking of this, Zhuang Shaoyou sighed and said, "Okay, you're busy, I'm leaving!" After speaking, let go of Gao Yingying, turned around and left.
"Stop!" The two angry female voices rang out in unison, startling Zhuang Shaoyou, and quickly turned around, looking at Mo Mei and Gongsun Linglong who were even more angry, as well as Gao Yingying, who was indignant on the side.
"Aunts and grandmothers, how did I provoke you? You did this to me? Even if you're going to let me die, you've got to make me a ghost! ”
Mo Mei and Gongsun Linglong glanced at each other, and Mo Mei said: "Come if you want, leave if you want, what kind of place do you think of here?" What do you take us for? ”
Zhuang Shaoyou was stunned for a moment, it turned out to be complaining, well, this time is the best time to reflect a man's mind, so he said seriously: "This is our home!" You're my mother! The husband is going south, so before leaving, I will take a look at the two ladies, is there anything wrong with this? ”
"What? You're heading south? Where to go? How did I not know? Take me there! Mo Mei wanted to be angry when he heard his flamboyant tongue, but when he heard that he was going to go far away, he didn't know it.
"I'll go too!"
"Big bad! I'm going too! ”
Gongsun Linglong and Gao Yingying on the side also hurriedly signed up.
Seeing this, Zhuang Shaoyou suddenly had a headache: "No! No way! Absolutely not! You can't take a woman on board! Inconvenience! Not really! ”
"Why not! What's wrong with the woman! You dare to look down on women! The third girl was immediately annoyed and rebuked him at the same time.
Zhuang Shaoyou retreated after defeat, cleaned up his mood, stabilized his position, and explained: "This trip is to explore a new route, and it may encounter danger in writing, so it is considered a military operation, and the army stipulates that it is forbidden to bring female dependents in the army!" This is a rule I set myself, so I can't take the lead in breaking it, right? ”
"Then you have to be careful, and come back safe and sound!" Mo Mei looked at Zhuang Shaoyou affectionately, his eyes were gentle, Zhuang Shaoyou felt that his whole person seemed to be melting, he couldn't help but step forward, hugged Mo Mei, kissed his lips deeply, Mo Mei's tears fell down and slid into Zhuang Shaoyou's mouth, sweet and salty and a little bitter, just like the feeling of first love.
"Big bad! You are not allowed to bully Sister Momei! Gao Yingying on the side was furious when she saw this, picked up the wooden stick and was about to step forward, but was stopped by Gongsun Linglong.
"Sister Linglong, what are you pulling me for! Didn't you see him bullying Sister Momei! You see, Sister Momei was bullied and cried by him! If you pull me again, if he bullies you later, I don't care! ”
Gongsun Linglong didn't speak, but her face turned red, and she was secretly a little annoyed in her heart, and she was a little expectant, would he come to bully me?
Zhuang Shaoyou and Mo Mei kissed for a long time before letting go, only to find out that the other two girls were gone, nowhere to be found, Zhuang Shaoyou gently hugged Mo Mei in his arms, just saw the protrusion that the Mai couldn't hide, and suddenly his blood gushed, and he couldn't help but say, "Shall I go to your room tonight?" ”
Mo Mei, who was in Zhuang Shaoyou's arms and recalled the taste of the kiss just now, suddenly came to his senses, jumped out of Zhuang Shaoyou's arms, glanced at him fiercely, and then went back to the house.
Zhuang Shaoyou was very helpless, can this woman be smart when she should be smart, and brainless when she should be brainless? But I found out that it was all the other way around? It's really speechless to be brainless when you should be smart, and smart when you should be brainless.
…………
On 20 July, the fleet was ready, three four-masted warships, three four-masted merchant ships, a total of six four-masted sailing ships, mighty and imposingly arranged at the pier in the north of the city, tens of thousands of people in the city came to see the excitement, the officials of the administrative department were all present, the leaders wanted to travel, and as subordinates, they naturally wanted to see them off.
Zhuang Shaoyou doesn't talk nonsense, just say a few simple polite words to everyone and hurry on board, time is precious, don't play vain!
Originally, Zhuang Shaoyou wanted him to stay and take care of the construction of the new dock, but Ink insisted on going to the Jiangnan area to exchange experience with his peers, Zhuang Shaoyou thought that this reason was very sufficient, so he agreed.
In addition, there are 1,000 sailors with them, and the remaining 500 sailors stay at home to continue training, and take the newly recruited 500 sailors to train together, after all, the sailor is the biggest trump card in Zhuang Shaoyou's hand, and after the five-masted warship is built, the scale of the sailor will swell sharply.
