Chapter 83 Unanimously adopted
At this time, Shen Yunxi thought about it and made an idea: "Village chief, I have an idea. We are a village. Many were killed or injured in the process of fleeing. Some families have no workforce and are left with only the old, weak, sick and disabled. It is difficult to open up wasteland and build a house.
They can't do heavy lifting, but they can cook, do laundry, and take care of kids. Let's divide everyone into groups of housework, cooking, building a house, cultivating the land, going to the county seat to buy seeds and plows.
In this way, everything can be done without delay. Bamboo houses, allocated as needed. If there are many people, they will be divided into larger ones; If there are fewer people, they should be divided into smaller ones.
As for the farmland that will be cleared, the wasteland we will open this year will be divided evenly according to the number of people. Children over the age of 8 are just like adults. Under eight years of age, half of the adult is allocated. ”
Tamura thought about it carefully, and his eyes lit up. His family had a lot of strong laborers, and he could get a lot of land.
"Youqing's family, I think your method is very good, you can save one person from cooking and washing clothes, and everyone can do big things together, build houses, and reclaim wasteland.
After such a distribution, if there are men or more people in the family, they will do more work and get more farmland. There are no male laborers in the family. After doing what they can, they can also get a share of the fields. Everybody says, how about this?"
Someone thought about it carefully and whispered, "Then our family has a lot of labor, and we have opened up a lot of wasteland to share with others." Aren't we at a loss?"
When Tian Mura heard this, his eyes widened: "Tian Toutou, your family has four sons and five strong laborers. You have two married sons, two daughters-in-law, and three grandchildren. How many people do you have in your family?
You have a lot of wasteland. When you divide it evenly by person, your family will get more land! When the time comes, your family will only need to reclaim the wasteland, build a house, wash clothes, and cook. Wouldn't that be easier?"
Hearing Chief Tian's rebuttal, people thought of the example of Tian Datou's family, and thought that Shen Yunxi and Tian Chief's statement was very reasonable.
Someone else hurriedly said, "We have come a long way to clear the land here." If we want to settle here, we have to unite. In our family, there are strong laborers, and we don't worry about opening up the wilderness or not having enough food.
However, there are still many strong laborers in our village who are no longer on the way to escape the famine, leaving behind the old and weak women and children. They were too weak to survive the famine. Can we watch them starve to death? Because they don't have land to grow food. ”
Shen Yunxi listened, nodded and praised, "We opened up this wasteland and distributed it to each family. Each family has a plot of land that can be used to support themselves by gathering food.
Now is the most critical moment for our village to leave its hometown, and there is no relief food from the government. What we are fighting for is the obsession of leaving a path for future generations, and what we are fighting for is our future generations. Don't run away anymore. ”
Tamura was so excited when he heard this, and even his eyes turned red.
If it weren't for Youqing's family, whether it was the villagers colluding with bandits and deceiving us, or the officials and bandits at the Qingmei Estuary colluding, it would be very dangerous. We're going to have bad endings too. It is estimated that there is not much left of the former Lihua Village. ”
People grieve when they think of their loved ones and friends lost on the way out.
After returning, Tamura had a meeting while eating.
Chief Tamura explained Shen Yunxi's suggestion to everyone, and finally everyone agreed.
In extraordinary times, there is no point in worrying too much.
