The matter of the tuntian of Dapandun went smoothly, and Shangguan also had a light on his face, so Zhang Hailin, the defense officer of the Qianhu Household Office in Xiahe Village, sent people to send ten ploughing cattle and a number of farm tools, and Wang Weizhen, the official of the Wangjiazhuang management team, also sent Jia Hongyu to send five ploughing cattle and some materials.

Liu Yan was very happy when he saw these ploughing cattle and materials, so he called everyone in the pier together, and publicized in public how the defense officer Zhang Hailin and the management officer Wang Weizhen were sympathetic to their subordinates, and the people who came to send the ploughing cattle were very useful.

At this time, Dapandun already has twenty-eight ploughing cattle, in all the chimneys under Wangjiazhuang, Dapandun is already a relatively spacious existence, so Liu Yan called Chen Xun, Wang Yue, and Zhao Min to the house, and several people discussed the matter of spring ploughing this year.

Before, Liu Yan took advantage of the time when the military households opened up the wasteland, and had sent people to buy a batch of millet and millet seeds, at this time it was already mid to late April, and other fire road piers had already begun spring ploughing, and now Dapandun was one step behind others, and more importantly, the time had slowed down, which was the most serious.

Therefore, in order to catch up with the peasants, Liu Yan summoned all the people in the pier according to the strategy discussed by several people, and directly distributed the newly reclaimed more than 1,000 mu of cultivated land, with an average of about 30 mu of cultivated land for each military household.

Although 30 acres of cultivated land does not seem to be much, in the current world, it is already regarded as a small landlord level, and I don't know how many poor people in Shandong are blushing when they look at it.

A few days ago, after the military households divided the fields, today Liu Yan distributed ploughing oxen and plough tools, seeds, rice and grain to them. In order to show fairness, everyone drew lots to decide the ownership of the cattle, so that everyone would not compete for the strong cattle, and the relatively thin cattle would not be wanted.

This time, the farm tools and seeds in the pier were also distributed, but due to the limited number of ploughing cattle in the mound, it was not possible for each household to get one, so under Liu Yan's arrangement, those old and weak ploughing cattle were owned by a military family, and those strong ploughing cattle were shared by two families. After this adjustment, all 28 ploughing cattle were divided.

Then Liu Yan was ready to order the start of sowing, although it was a little late at this time, but even then he had to start planting, otherwise there would be no harvest at all next year. This year, Liu Yan can spend money to support everyone, but he can't keep raising it, even if he can only harvest a grain of rice this year, he must let these military households be self-reliant.

"Everyone lined up and came up one by one to receive the cattle and rations, and they should be orderly and not chaotic."

"Everyone registers first, and then receives ploughing cattle and rations, and cannot be left out or stuffed!"

Chen Xun stood in front of Liu Yan and shouted loudly at the military households in front of him, maintaining order here, and Miao Shao and Xu Ming also brought two people each to help. The original dozen or so dun soldiers of Dapandun were also here, maintaining order under Chen Xun, or distributing goods, plowing cattle, or guarding the military households queuing up to receive supplies.

A few days ago, Liu Yan also specially sent someone to buy a large amount of grain, which was also distributed today as a store of grain for each family, which was also Liu Yan's intention to push everyone to support themselves, so as not to be used to being raised by themselves, thus forming inertia.

At this time, Liu Yan sat firmly on a chair in the lookout, Wang Yue stood next to him and watched, and complimented Liu Yan from time to time, like what kind of governance ability, the best guard in the world, etc., his face did not change and his heart did not beat, even Liu Yan felt that it was a little too much, but Wang Yue said it very seriously.

At the same time, there was a table under the lookout, and Zhao Min was sitting precariously, registering the rice grain, farm tools, and ploughing cattle received by the military households one by one.

Zhao Min wrote very carefully, and after checking all the numbers correctly, he would let the military households who received them sign and draw them.

Liu Yan nodded with satisfaction when he saw this, this Zhao Min can still be reused, he is a malleable talent, at least there is no problem with ability and sense of responsibility.

Of course, after the ploughing ox and the plough were separated, they were not given away for free, they were only leased from the pier, and the ownership still belonged to Dapandun, that is, it belonged to Liu Yan. In the future, everyone should also treat the cattle well, and every few months someone will go down to check on the large pandun, and if it is found that the cattle are abused, or the breeding is not effective, the cattle of the household will be taken back and severely fined.

In addition, the military households also had to borrow rice grain one by one to provide their own rations before the autumn harvest, and of course these rice grains had to be repaid, but there was no interest required.

Liu Yan did this because he didn't want to be kind, after all, these farming cattle and various materials were bought with his own money, or begged, and now they will naturally recover the cost if they are distributed.

At the same time, Liu Yan also wants his subordinates to form a sense of compensation, rather than waiting for relief.

Liu Yan sat on a chair and looked down, only to see that all the military households below were overjoyed, and when they were given ploughing oxen and plows, they were all looking towards the top of the lookout to thank them. Now that everyone has a field, plus the ploughing oxen and plough tools that have been distributed today, the happy life of their wives and children will accompany them in the future, and they feel happy when they think about this life.

Liu Yan was also full of emotion when he saw this situation, his own land policy had come to an end, and after the fields were divided into households, what life they would have in the future could only depend on these military households themselves.

However, the history of China has proved many times that after the Han people owned the land, the great enthusiasm of those yeoman farmers, as well as their desperate spirit to protect their own interests, will radiate great vitality and powerful combat power!

After this division of fields and cattle, Liu Yanji made a decision, and in the future, the affairs of the tuntian in the fort will be temporarily supervised and supervised by Chen Xun, in addition to urging the military households to cultivate diligently, Chen Xun will also urge the military households to send Dingkou to serve in the fort in the future.

Of course, this is only temporary, after all, Chen Xun is a small flag officer under Liu Yan himself, and his main task is to lead the troops. As for the affairs of Tuntian, we will make other arrangements after we have professional talents in the future.

After all, Liu Yan can't handle everything by himself, there are only these two old people around him, one of them is a person like Wang Yue, who can he hand over the matter of Tuntian in the fort to Chen Xun at the moment?

On this day, after plowing cattle and other things, a grand spring ploughing ceremony was organized in Dapandun the next day.

The spring ploughing ceremonies in the surrounding Tunpu have already been held, and Chen Xun and Wang Yue also persuaded Liu Yan to save this step and directly plough, and there is still a sum of money and grain left.

However, Liu Yan insisted on holding a spring ploughing ceremony, which was the first spring ploughing in Dapandun, which was of great significance and must not be too casual. In Liu Yan's words, it is necessary to have a sense of ceremony.

A few days later, a thatched factory had been built next to the Xitong Canal, and Liu Yan also spent two taels of silver to invite a troupe from the Qianqian Household in Xiahe Village, beating drums and gongs all the way, blowing and blowing, and letting everyone in the pier carry paper spring oxen, plows and other items. Everyone greeted all the way from the Dapan pier to the thatched factory, and the fire road piers and tunbao along the way were alarmed, and those dun soldiers and military households gathered to watch when they heard the news, and it was not lively along the way.

Along the way, the military households in the pier set off firecrackers and threw rice, soybeans and other rice to the paper-tied ploughing oxen, indicating a bumper harvest in the new year. The dun soldiers and military households along the way all widened their eyes when they saw this, they didn't expect Dapandun to be so extravagant, and they actually used real rice and soybeans to throw it.

In the blink of an eye, there were many dun troops and military households rushing to Dapandun and their group, squatting on the ground to compete for those scattered grains.

Liu Yan couldn't help but shake his head and sigh when he saw it, the soldiers of the Daming Guard at this time were too hard and too poor. Even the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty were like this, not to mention those ordinary peasant people. Thinking of this, Liu Yan's heart became heavier and heavier, the world is like this, and he still has a long way to go.

Soon after the paper was carried to the thatched factory, Liu Yan personally burned incense to worship the emperor's earth, and led the three worships, and Chen Xun and Wang Yue also led a group of military households to follow and worship in the back.

After paying tribute to the gods of heaven and earth, Liu Yan personally supported the plough and performed a trial ox ploughing the field to show the start of spring ploughing.

In the end, Liu Yan led everyone to lift the paper-tied spring cow again, and after swimming a few laps inside and outside the big plate pier, the paper-tied spring cow was burned, and the whole spring plowing ceremony officially ended.

From this day on, the tense spring ploughing of Dapandun officially began, the fields are full of busy figures of Dapandun military households, and the happy ballad of Dapandun military households farming will be sounded every day along the Nanhe River:

"Autumn ploughing is deep, spring ploughing is shallow. Spring ploughing is like turning cakes, and autumn ploughing is like digging a well. Spring ploughing is one inch deep, and it can be used to top dung. Spring ploughing and spring ploughing are unwilling to be busy, and the face is hungry and yellow after autumn. Plough well and rake well, and grow crops without grass. The crops don't recognize their father and mother, and they work intensively and do more grain......"

During this time, Chen Xun took a few dun soldiers who had no family affairs out, and several of them were busy, nervously urging the military families to work everywhere, and most of the original dun soldiers in the fort went to the fields to help their families work.

Now Liu Yan has not raised the soldiers who are out of production, of course, he also takes this problem into account, but if he wants to leave the army, he must give them at least one stone of grain and rice every month, so as to make up for the losses caused by the Ding Kou in their family, as well as their weapons, armor, horses, beans, etc., all of which are a lot of money.

Now although Liu Yan will have a few hundred taels of silver every month, after all, he only has the financial resources of the soap workshop in his hand, and once something happens to the soap workshop, there will be no way back. Therefore, for Liu Yan, at this time, it is too early to directly transfer young and strong soldiers from the pier to train full-time elite soldiers, and it is still a little weak in terms of financial resources.

However, Liu Yan still planned it, and planned to expand the manpower of the dundun soldiers in Dapandun after the spring ploughing was over, and twelve people were still too few. Of course, these dun troops cannot be out of production for the time being, and can only be practiced during the slack time.

"Let's take it step by step, now that we have sown hope, we will definitely reap something."

Liu Yan said in his heart.
