1,000 acres of original ecological fields plus more than 20 families of old and weak women and children.

The only thing that is of value in the entire grange is the innermost three-entry house in the Zhuangzi.

Although the construction time seems to be a long time, the house is mostly made of stone and wood, and the house is sturdy.

After being abandoned for so many years, there has been no sense of déjà vu of a dilapidated house.

This is much better than the house in Jinshui Village that their family just wore back then!

"This place is much stronger than the small courtyard house in Yueliao, if it weren't for the fact that this place has not reached the point of self-sufficiency, I would like to move here directly."

Umeberry stood next to the well in the backyard, and when she made sure that the well could still produce water, she felt that it was a good place.

"Although this place is not the best and is a little remote, but it will not be directly deserted like this, and no one cares."

Mei You helped Mei Berry look around and put forward her opinion.

"Isn't that there? Those ...... outside"

Plum berry Nunu mouthed, thinking that suddenly there were dozens of more people to eat, and the pressure came up as soon as possible.

"That's not what I'm talking about."

Mei You shook her head, apparently Mei Berry hadn't noticed it yet.

"Along the way, the land that has been reclaimed in Zhuangzi is very obvious, and those homeless hermits can obviously see it, but they are too timid to plant it directly.

There are also some water conservancy facilities, waterwheels, and ditches, although they all seem to be abandoned now, but it is obvious that this Zhuangzi was very good at the beginning, why was it abandoned here? ”

"Ah...... This ......" Mei Berry couldn't answer, "maybe...... Not enough people? ”

It's just that Mei You didn't answer this question, and only gave Mei Berry a "What do you think of yourself?" A mocking gaze.

Well, plum berries don't believe it either.

What a good Zhuangzi, inexplicably it was made like a deserted village, and Mei Berry's heart was also beating.

When she turned around, she still had to make a background to Jiubaoxuan or Xie Changchen to make a background for this farm.

In addition, after looking around, Mei Berry still has to consider the eating and drinking problems of these "villagers" who are temporarily classified as her.

The water source in Zhuangzi is quite stable, and this plum berry is not worried.

But they clearly looked like they hadn't had enough to eat for a long time.

The food in her system space, the plum berries, was reluctant to move herself, and this was the ration she left for their family.

The next time she comes, she will have to ask someone to buy some food and send it here.

When Mei Berry and Mei You were inspecting the house, outside the courtyard, Mei Youqian and a few guys from Jiubaoxuan went to continue to look at the fields, and Wei Meili was already chatting with the old and young women and children who Mei Berry had decided to take in.

After chatting, I learned that some of these families moved here for five to a year.

There are also a few underage boys here, but the oldest is only Tian Qi's age, and they all look like bean sprouts.

The rest are basically women, some old and some young, and they can't live happily at home, so they run out.

Wei Meili couldn't help but sigh when she heard all kinds of encounters with these people.

The men are all gone, there are some old and young people left in the family, it is very difficult to live, and they have to face all kinds of taxes from time to time, they can't get by, and they flee in the middle of the night;

Some of the men in the family are gone, and they are directly sold by their in-laws when they encounter the unkindness of their elders, and they run out by themselves halfway, and they come here when they are homeless;

There are also a small number of people who have nowhere to go because they are born as mixed-race, and finally stay here......

This Zhuangzi is nothing short of heaven for those of them who are homeless.

In addition, there is a military camp, which is relatively stable.

There were only a few times when it seemed as if they had been spotted by the soldiers in the barracks, but they didn't come to disturb them.

Occasionally, when it's cold, a few bags of wheat and fish are thrown at Zhuangzikou.

That kind of self-evident tacit understanding also gave their group of homeless old and young people a temporary sense of belonging here.

"We'll work hard when the spring is planting."

And now that the master of this Zhuangzi has come, not only did he not want to drive them away, but he even hired them to work here, recognizing their intention to continue here.

Everyone's eyes are full of hope for the future.

Seeing this appearance, Wei Meimei's eyes couldn't help but be a little sour.

When Mei Berry and Mei You came out to look for Wei Meili, Mei Berry saw her mother sitting with a group of people eating black cakes in a missing clay bowl.

The cake, plum berry looked at it and knew it was not delicious.

But Mei Berry and Mei You still didn't hesitate to take it when they handed it to them.

It was their kindness and gratitude to themselves, and the plum berries showed no dissatisfaction or disgust, and swallowed the rough, even scratchy, cake with the water they had brought.

In the evening, Mei Berry and a group of people who came with Jiubaoxuan cleaned the courtyard of the Sanjin house, and everyone was going to spend the night here tonight.

Thinking of what those people ate during the day, Plum Berry struggled for a long time, and finally took out an old pumpkin the size of a millstone and a bag of ten catties of cornmeal from the space with the mule's cart.

Thanks to the fact that knowing that there was a high probability that they would stay here for the night, Mei Youqian and Wei Meili brought a lot of things on the mule cart, and Mei Berry suddenly took out these grains, but no one aroused suspicion.

Corn pumpkin pie, although the conditions here are limited, but the scones made of pure grain will not be unpalatable after all.

Early the next morning, before they left, they distributed the dozens of catties of corn and pumpkin pie to these farmers.

For these farmers who have been eating coarse grains and wild vegetables for a long time, this kind of charred outside and soft inside, mixed with the sweet aroma of old pumpkin and corn, is simply a delicacy in the world.

Everyone almost knelt down to worship Plum Berry, but fortunately they were supported by Plum Berry again and again.

"Okay, okay, this one has the strength to work when he is full! I guess in a few days I'll bring people back to the country, and then they'll bring all kinds of seeds and some food, and then everyone will start spring planting.

Before that, I hope you can help me clean up the weeds on the acres of fields in Zhuangzi. ”

Everyone agreed to what Plum Berry said, but Plum Berry looked at their yellow and thin appearance, and finally told them to do what they could.

At the end, Plum Berry also took out some of the vegetable seeds stored in her space.

"I see you all have some land in front of the door, and I have some vegetable seeds that come in handy."

"The owner!"

A group of poor people looked at Plum Berry with tears in their eyes, and they couldn't say anything for a long time, so they looked at Plum Berry like this, and couldn't suppress their gratitude.

"Okay, it's time for me to go back and make some plans for our Zhuangzi. The next time I come back, I hope it will be when the good days really begin~"

Plum berry waved at everyone before leaving.

Leaving the farm and riding on the way back, Plum Berry sighed several times.

"What are you sighing for?"

Mei You saw that Mei Berry seemed to be a little distracted from leaving Zhuangzi.

"Suddenly carrying the burden of raising dozens of people, I was a little flustered~"

"Your Zhuangzi doesn't look like you can only raise dozens of mouths."

As far as the population of plum berries is concerned, if I really want to plant all the fields in the grange, it is estimated that there will be a lot of people.

Besides, although Jiubaoxuan said that there were thousands of acres of land, Mei You rode around yesterday evening.

The area of Zhuangzi is much more than that, and even cultivating another thousand acres is not a problem.

"Let's feed this group of people first~"

Mei Berry sighed, she didn't expect much from these people's labor, "That Zhuangzi is so big, if I really grow cotton, I will need people to pick it later." ”

Not to mention plum berries, in addition to cotton, peppers and watermelons are also grown.

"Before, Xie Changchen said that he would help me find another group of people to come over, but now that I think about it, I guess I still need some guards.

Alas~ It's too late to talk to him now, I'd better figure it out myself~"

Mei You listened to Mei Berry's broken thoughts, the green tendons on her forehead jumped inexplicably, with a deep dangerous light in her eyes, and asked, "You, when did you get so close to that man?" ”

Mei You: Oops! Why are so many people targeting my sister in my absence?

Berry: Huh?

Yang Qingyue: Gearing up

Xie Changchen: Rub your palms
