Chapter 93: 100 acres of fertile land

Although Shen Yunxi and Zheng Guizhen wanted to go hunting and improve the children's food, they didn't have time because they were reclaiming the wasteland every day.

Luckily, Tian Daniu and the children in the village went fishing every day. The most popular foods right now are fish soup and grilled fish.

Although it is not very tasty, it is also a meat dish and no one does not like it.

The village names are working to clear the wasteland. No one dares to be lazy. They were worried that Tamura would quit.

Tian Ergou is good at farming. Locals plant 8 catties of seeds per acre, but he thinks the village can open up more fields. He calls the shots. Six catties of rice per acre.

This is more sparse and easy to manage in the future, and it has also been recognized by Tamura Chief.

When people go out early and return late every day, they are tired, and the old scalpers are also tired.

Tian Da Niu cuts the most tender and best grass every day to feed the old cattle, and sometimes Shen Yunxi secretly beats a dozen quail eggs to feed the old cattle.

This can replenish physical strength, so that the old scalper will not become too thin because they are too tired.

Despite their best efforts to conserve food, they ran out of food after 12 days. In total, they reclaimed 173 acres of land. All the rice seeds I bought were used up.

Tian Ergou used to work for the locals when he fled the famine in the south, so he knew how to plant terraces.

Looking at the more than 100 acres of land on the hillside, the village chief blushed: "This is our land!" This is our land!"

Tian Ergou also choked up and nodded: "As long as this land can grow food, we can settle here."

Shen Yunxi was tired, he sat on the mountain ridge, looking at the slopes of the four mountains around him. Terraced planting. After her calculations, it was a total of 173 acres.

At first, she thought that there would be 150 acres, which was already a lot, but she did not expect that the villagers of Qianlihua Village were so eager to stay.

"Don't get excited, Uncle Chief. I think we should now assign these fields to individuals and let specific people manage them. Otherwise, many people will not listen to the arrangement, they will be lazy, and the food will not grow well. ”

Tian Ergou also thought so and nodded in agreement. "Yes, the villagers in our village are not very skilled, but they have a lot of ideas. The land should be divided early, then weeds should be pulled, insects killed, irrigated. You can do the work of your own home. Village chief, you don't have to care so much, otherwise you will be so angry that you can't sleep. ”

Tamura nodded: "Okay, divide the land today." When the time comes, we will reap together. Whoever has a high yield per mu will be rewarded with 50 catties of grain, which is good for us. If there is no male labor force in the family, I will divide the land under the terraces, and if there is a male labor force, we will divide the high ones.

Our village has 173 acres of land. There are 103 people in the village, of whom 78 are over 8 years old. Plus three old scalpers and there are 81 adults here. The remaining 22 people under the age of 8 were allocated half of the fields for adults. Alas, how much land does this adult want to share? Ergou, do you know how to calculate?"

Tian Ergou scratched his head and said, "How can I figure out such a complicated situation?"

Tian Village Chief looked at Shen Yunxi and said, "Youqing's family, can you count?"

Of course, Shen Yunxi will calculate: "Yes, twenty-two children under the age of eight, each of whom is divided into half adults, that is, eleven adults; Add the previous eighty-one, and that's ninety-two. "A total of 173 acres of land, divided by 92 acres, etc., I can't count it with my mouth. I have to come up with a formula!"
