Chapter 220: We Want to Cultivate the Famine
Zhao Sheng was panting like a cow, this weak scholar ran all the way over, tired and dark, and gasped for a while
After gasping, he finally breathed well: "Whew...... Holy Maiden, I have come to you because I have something to report to Tianzun. ”
Gao Yiye: "Oh? You say, Tianzun is on top of your head, listen. ”
Zhao Sheng raised his head, glanced at the dwarf clouds in the sky, and hurried down for a big week.
He has been coming to Gaojia Village for several days, and he has also figured out that there is a dwarf cloud in the sky that can be seen in the low sky of about sixty or seventy zhang, that is, Tianzun is there, and if there is no dwarf cloud, Tianzun is not there.
Zhao Sheng said to the dwarf clouds: "Tianzun, I have been wandering around the slopes outside the Valley of the Wanderers for a few days, and I have been thinking about what the future of my three thousand villagers should be, although Tianzun has provided them with all kinds of work to do, but there are now four thousand people in the village, and the daily food required is a very huge number. ”
"These grains are now being given to us by Tianzun." Zhao Sheng made another big salute: "We are very grateful to Tianzun for his kindness, but I am also thinking about it, if one day, Tianzun is busy with other things and has no time to take care of our Gaojia Village, what will these 4,000 people eat?" Relying on the current farmland of Gaojia Village alone, even if the farmland of Zhengjia Village and Wangjia Village is added, it is far from enough.
Li Daoxuan gave him a thumbs up in his heart: Very good! It makes sense to think about something, or rather, it's long-term.
Zhao Sheng: "Please allow us to reclaim the land and reclaim new farmland." It is necessary to have farmland that can support more than 4,000 people, which is necessary to prepare for the future of all people. If there is more farmland, Tianzun can also reduce it, or no longer send us immortal food, and Tianzun can also save some effort. ”
Li Daoxuan was about to say: Accurate!
I heard Gao Yiye say curiously: "Mr. Zhao, I guess Tianzun will definitely promise you to reclaim the wasteland, but ....... the land of Chengcheng County...... There aren't many suitable for reclamation and farming. ”
Zhao Sheng showed an embarrassed expression: "Yes, the land around the Wandering Valley is indeed a bit barren, and it is okay to grow some wild flowers and weeds, and it seems a bit ...... to grow crops But...... My fellow villagers are all very industrious, and as long as there is a field, whether it is barren or not, everyone will always find some way to find some crops suitable for it to grow.
Li Daoxuan has actually checked the information of Chengcheng County a long time ago, Chengcheng County belongs to a part of the Weibei Loess Plateau, and the landform is dominated by the Loess Plain.
The loess plain, growing crops is really life-threatening.
It is not easy to find a few fields suitable for planting crops in Chengcheng County, and the places suitable for farming have long been developed by predecessors, such as the wheat fields in Gaojia Village, which is the best land in the vicinity.
But!
Li Daoxuan has found that there is an important pillar crop in Chengcheng County in later generations, that is: Bao Bu: In modern times, the planting area of corn in Chengcheng County has reached 310,000 mu. No matter how barren the loess you are, Lao Tzu doesn't say a word about it, just a corn for you to plant, as long as you can ensure good fertilizer, you will give Lao Tzu a long brush.
Lee Do-hyun was unable to provide modern corn seeds to the villain in the box, because the "living creatures" would be killed by mysterious forces the moment they entered and exited the box. Plant seeds are "living creatures" and cannot be put in them.
But.
At the end of the Ming Dynasty, corn had been introduced to the Celestial Empire, and as long as you were willing to look for it, you would definitely be able to find it.
Since Zhao Sheng has the heart to reclaim the land on the Loess Plain, Li Daoxuan feels that it is a good time to promote corn to "Yiye, is Xing Hongwolf about to leave the village and go to Xi'an again?" ”
"Yes!" Gao Yiye raised his head and said, "Sister Xing will leave tomorrow." ”
"Very good, tell Zhao Sheng first, allow them to reclaim the wasteland, and the land around the Wandering Valley will be developed into farmland in large quantities. Then you go to Xing Hongwolf and ask him to look for the crop 'corn' next time he goes to Xi'an, and if he can buy it, he will buy it back in large quantities, and the action must be fast, and it won't take long before he can buy this thing. ”
Gao Yiye nodded and agreed: "Mr. Zhao, Tianzun is gracious, the wasteland around the Valley of the Wanderers, you should try to reclaim it." ”
Zhao Sheng was overjoyed, cheered and ran out: "I'll go inform the villagers." ”
"You run slower." Gao Yiye shouted loudly: "Don't run out of breath anymore." ”
Zhao Sheng: "I can do it, I can do it!" I'm physically strong...... Call...... Very strong...... Whew...... Ah....... Such good news should be ...... as soon as possible Phew........"
After running two hundred meters, he supported his knees with his hands and gasped: "Oh mom, no, I have to ...... Slow... Slow down...... Although it is good news...... Or slow down...... Slow down the notification........"
Gao Yiye laughed out loud: "Hahaha!
Li Daoxuan couldn't help but wonder: In terms of the physical quality of this goods, he actually ran out to rebel, who would believe it?
In the evening of the same day, after returning home from a short job, the villagers of Qingjian County got the good news that Tianzun allowed them to reclaim the famine.
Although the valley of the displaced people is surrounded by barren loess plains, the villagers are still excited, they are now "wanderers" who are not worthy of owning land, and they did not expect to get the permission of Tianzun to reclaim the wasteland.
This is a huge reward!
Some of the diligent villagers immediately took up their hoes and went out of the valley, although they were tired from working all day, but as soon as they heard about the reclamation, they came back to the energy, and took care of a piece of land as soon as possible, and that piece of land was not their own.
With such an idea, of course, it is early rather than late, and the first strike is stronger.
However, there are also some villagers who can settle accounts, especially those with craftsman skills, who fold their fingers and count the accounts: "If I spend all my time working, according to the work I am doing now, the salary given to me by the third steward will be worth about three taels of silver a month." Thirty-six taels of silver a year. ”
"But if I spend my time farming, on this barren loess plain, I can harvest at most one or two stones of grain a year, even if the price of grain is relatively high in a famine year, it will only be an income of a few taels of silver.
"Working to make money is obviously more cost-effective than farming, I have the skills, there is no need to go to the wasteland to farm, let the people who like farming to plant, I will work for the rest of my life."
As a result, there are artisans and those who have agricultural skills and take different attitudes to this matter.
Everyone goes from a starting point to different directions, like separate tree branches, extending different life trajectories.
Early the next morning, Xing Hongwolf took a small caravan and set off for Xi'an again.
This time she no longer sells salt, there is a serious and responsible inspector who is supreme, which makes it more difficult for her to smuggle salt, it is better to sell something serious, isn't it good to sell fairy candy? I make more money than I make selling salt.
Gao Yiye sent Xing Hongwolf to the entrance of the village: "Corn must be bought as much as possible, in addition, the rare things that are not in the Gao family village can be brought back, and now the village is very rich, and the rare things must be very easy to sell." The most important thing is that craftsmen, teachers, and all kinds of talents, if they can turn around, they can turn here, and calculate the cost, this is Tianzun's original words. ”
Xing Hongwolf laughed: "Don't worry, leave this matter to me." ”
