But even if Wang Xiujuan had tried to say as little as possible, Fu Linjun was very shocked.

In the north, the grain yield per mu is 100 to 200 stones, and in the better places in the south, the highest may only be 300 stones.

Although this pumpkin is not a common food on weekdays, Fu Linjun has eaten this thing, it tastes sweet and sweet, better than the taste of grain, and there is no need to peel off the shell.

The yield per mu can be 500 stones!

Fu Linjun got up from his seat suddenly, "Auntie, are you telling the truth?!" This pumpkin really has a yield of 500 stones per mu?! ”

Wang Xiujuan said: "Naturally, there is, although I have only planted half an acre of land, but my half acre of land has more than 300 stones, considering that it may be the reason for the fertile land in the mountains, but if it is under the mountain to produce 500 stones, it should not be a problem." ”

Fu Linjun smiled, "Great! Even if you don't have 500 stones, it's good to have 3 or 400 stones! ”

The people are too miserable, and if there is more food that can be eaten, I don't know how many people can be saved.

Wang Xiujuan wanted to say that although this pumpkin can be eaten as a meal, she can't just eat pumpkin, but after thinking about the miserable situation of the group of homeless people outside the city, she swallowed this sentence back.

It's nice to have something to eat these days.

Or don't say something that makes people laugh about why you don't eat minced meat.

"We don't eat much rice in the north, but I think we are close to the big river and have plenty of water, so we can grow some rice." Wang Xiujuan took out another small bag of rice, which were all seeds she had carefully selected.

Fu Linjun hesitated, most of them in the north still eat wheat, but it is not that they don't eat rice, but they just say that it is inconvenient to use water in the north.

Wang Xiujuan said: "Originally, I figured out a method in the mountains, and I wanted to experiment, but who knew that those things happened later, and I hurriedly moved to the county, which was delayed, and now the weather is gradually getting warmer in spring, I want to try to plant rice, and use the way of fish and rice symbiosis." ”

Hearing the unfamiliar name, Fu Linjun asked: "Auntie, what is the symbiosis of fish and rice?" ”

Wang Xiujuan explained: "Fish and rice symbiosis, as the name suggests, is that fish and rice grow together, and when the seedlings are inserted into the field, the seedlings are put into the fish and grow together with the rice. The fish raised in this way are sweet and fragrant. Rice can also grow better. ”

Fu Linjun is not a person who does not know grains, she asked: "Won't that fish eat rice?" ”

"When the fry are put in, the fish is still small, so they eat the pests in the field, and when it grows up, a lot of weeds grow in the paddy field, and these weeds are the best forage for fish, and it also saves us the effort of weeding, and the fish manure can also be used as nutrients for rice, so that rice grows better." It's a mutually beneficial and symbiotic way of growing. ”

Fu Linjun didn't quite understand whether it could be done, but it didn't sound like a problem, and after thinking about it, she said:

"Okay, I'll assign the fifty acres of land near the big river to the eldest lady, and you are responsible."

"Auntie, although what you said is very reasonable, but in the end everyone has never seen it, so I don't dare to risk giving you too much land, these fifty acres for you to try, if it can be successful, we will promote, if not, we will not consider it."

If there were no pumpkins, Fu Linjun would definitely not be so happy to allocate fifty acres of land to Wang Xiujuan as an experimental field.

In the north, there are few mountains and mountains, and those high-quality fields like the river are even more rare.

But with a pumpkin as a base, she has a little more confidence.

She believed that Wang Xiujuan would not do such a stupid thing as deceiving her.

Wang Xiujuan thought it would be good to have ten acres of land, but who knew that she could get fifty acres of land, and she was also satisfied.

Then Wang Xiujuan, who had rested for half a winter, began to get busy again.

……

After Fu Linjun took people to circle Wang Xiujuan, he sent a lot of people to help her and left.

When he returned home in the evening and got angry with Chang Yuan, Chang Yuan didn't say anything, his wife is not the kind of lady who only knows things in the boudoir.

He trusted that his wife would not mess around.

One day, Wang Xiujuan had lunch and planned to go to the field.

"Sissy."

Wang Xiujuan looked at it, it was Mrs. Ding.

"What's wrong?" She stopped.

Mrs. Ding explained that it turned out that she was in love with two families for her youngest son, and she wanted to come to Wang Xiujuan to ponder.

Wang Xiujuan thought it was a big deal, but it was indeed a major life event for others.

"I can't get any idea for your family to marry a daughter-in-law." Wang Xiujuan doesn't want to take care of this kind of thing, and when the time comes, the daughter-in-law Ding is not satisfied, so she can't blame her?

Mrs. Ding looked entangled, "There is a family, the girl has a good character and good appearance, and she said that she can not be hired." ”

Wang Xiujuan was surprised, she looks good, has a good character, and she doesn't want a dowry, I'm afraid there is something wrong?

She asked directly, "Could there be any problems?" ”

Mrs. Ding explained, "I'm a little older, but my kid is not too young, so I don't mind." It's that there is no strong man in her family, there is only an old lady and a younger brother, who sell tea and water to make a living on weekdays, and if she marries her, she will definitely not be able to ignore her family. The girl also said in advance that she would definitely take care of her mother's family when she married into her mother-in-law's family, at least until her younger brother was an adult and could hold up the door before letting go. ”

Wang Xiujuan didn't think there was anything wrong with it, but felt that this girl was affectionate and righteous, and she also knew the importance of helping her mother's family because her mother's family had no ability to survive, but after her younger brother became an adult, she also knew the sense of proportion and let go and returned to her mother-in-law's house.

Mrs. Ding said: "There is another family, there are two brothers and one sister in the family, she is the youngest, and the dowry costs five taels of silver, I don't think they want more, but when the family talks to me, these words are like selling girls, and I feel uncomfortable listening to them." But this girl looks good, and she is quite capable at home, and she catches it inside and outside the house. But they now live outside the city. ”

Wang Xiujuan herself is inclined to the first house, but she can't say it so clearly, she can only put forward her own opinions for Mrs. Ding's own reference.

"Although the first family said that the girl still had to drag her mother's family, her mother's brother is already 12 years old according to what you said, and he will be able to stand up for the door in a few years, and their sister-brother relationship is so good, when her brother grows up, he will definitely be the help of his sister. This girl is still worried about her mother's family when she marries, which shows that her character is good, and she also knows that she is measured to let go of her younger brother when he becomes an adult. ”

"Although the second family wants a lot of dowry, but after marrying, there is no drag from her mother's family, she is the youngest, and she can't find her head if there is anything in the family. And he is also a hard-working and willing to work. ”

Mrs. Ding was speechless, she wanted to find Wang Xiujuan to help her analyze and analyze, but Wang Xiujuan picked on the benefits of the two of them, and then didn't give her any advice.

Wang Xiujuan sent Mrs. Ding two more sentences, and went to get busy with her own affairs.

Outside the city, the nearby distribution of displaced people has begun, and it is almost time to farm, and these displaced people are allocated to the nearby empty villages and planted all the land.

The seeds were given to them by Chang Yuan on credit, including the fields, which were also given to them by Chang Yuan, but it would take ten years of cultivation for the fields to truly belong to them.

Several families worked together to ensure that the grain was planted on credit, and as soon as the grain was planted, they would immediately go and return the grain, and the rest of the tax would be their own.

Of course, if something happens, it will be borne by several families.
