The new crops could not be planted for the time being, and the days returned to peace, and the rice harvest season was in the midst of the children's fighting.

If the crops in the Han family's fields in the past can only be found to have a few more grains on one spike if they look closely, then this year's rice, even if it is just starting to plant, knows at a glance that it must have grown a harvest.

The townsman came to see it in person, and went to report the county order. Now that the new monarch and new laws have been changed, Wei Shang, the county commander who originally didn't like trouble, had to be active, and asked Han Chuan to come and ask questions, and come to see it in person on the day of harvest.

The county order is waiting, so naturally he can't sit there and wait for all the fields to be harvested. Tian Qiangfu Tao and the subordinates who brought the county worked together, first quickly harvested an acre of land, and then threshed together, and then weighed.

Tao He is not from Huaiyin, the huge Chu land, such as Lidian and Tiandian, there are naturally not so many people in the Qin State who can be deployed. The county order took the initiative to surrender, and the position would not move. But an important official like Tian Qiangfu, who was in charge of the county's agricultural affairs, refused to let the county choose people at will, but transferred someone from Nanjun.

Compared with Wei Shang and others, Tao He has been in the Qin State for a long time, so he naturally knows the importance of farming. As soon as he came here, he was keenly aware of the technique of composting and the technique of continuous cropping of rice and wheat, and the two complemented each other, and on the right plot, almost an entire season of harvest could be increased. And these things are all from the hands of Tian Dian in Peach Creek.

The sickle flew in the rice field, and the county magistrate and Tao He were afraid of cheating, so they refused to go to the house to rest, and set up a table to sit in the open space, and waited for a while, and the rice of an acre of land was harvested, and it was beaten and threshed.

Ji Yanxing, the townsman, rushed to take people to say, and after a while, he stumbled over and almost fell.

"Rice...... Eight stones of rice! ”

The county magistrate stood up, and Tian Qiangfu Tao He jumped up and shouted, "Are you wrong? While he hurried to check it out himself.

At that time, the rice harvest was before the composting technique, but it was only three and a half stones, and the compost was only slightly increased, but the good seeds of the Han Chuan family had just been harvested more than eight stones, and after the sun went to the water, it was estimated that there would be six and a half stones, and the income would increase by more than three stones in one fell swoop.

Huaiyin is hot and humid, and rice and wheat are important food crops. Although only 60% of the rice is left after it is milled into rice, there is a lot of local cultivation. In this way, one acre of land can produce rice and four stones, which is equal to or even exceeds the original yield of unhulled rice.

Tao He suppressed his excitement and said in a deep voice: "Harvest and dry as soon as possible, and when the exact harvest is reported, I will go to Tanxian County to report my merits." ”

Wei Shang was also happy, he was the respect of a county, and he had meritorious work in farming, which was naturally only good for him.

Han Chuan didn't dare to slack off, after all, he had only changed from a Chu person to a Qin person, and he didn't know anything about Qin Law, so he was very cautious, and even hired a short-term worker to work, taking advantage of the good weather to harvest all the rice, and then handed over the work of cleaning up the rice fields to prepare for planting wheat to them, and went to the county to report in person.

The conditions of his fields are different, and when calculated together, the yield per mu is about six and a half stones. Tao reported to the county order, issued a document to open the official warehouse to Cangqiangfu, exchanged the official grain with him for six stones of rice, and ordered him to keep the rice seeds and not eat them first, and wait for the news from Xianyang to come over.

Han Chuan felt bitter in his heart, his family didn't have much surplus grain, although he was also going to keep grain to plant, but his original plan was to let the villagers exchange grain with him, one stone of good seeds for one stone and one bucket of rice. In this way, his family will not only get more food, but also the good seed will spread.

Now it's okay, the grain that has just been beaten down can't be eaten at home, and it can't be changed, and I have to wait for the order from Xianyang, who doesn't know when it will come.

Tao He glanced at him, Han Chuan's expression fell in his eyes, and he naturally understood his difficulties. He intends to befriend Han Chuan, but now it seems that he is cheating people...... Thinking slightly, Tao He said with a smile: "Han Tiandian doesn't have to worry, the official warehouse can't be moved lightly, but I have some savings, so I'll lend it to you first." I have heard that even the king has been asking about your rice, wheat, and corn rotation and composting skills, and as long as it is verified in the pass, the reward will definitely come. ”

At this time, there is also a place to grow rice in Guanzhong, and it is enough to use it for experiments. Not to mention, millet is one of the most important staple foods today. The state of Qin now encompasses the land of Chu, and there are vast fields to cultivate whether it is rice, wheat, or millet. If crop rotation can be promoted, the country's annual income will increase in grain uncountable, and it is no wonder that even the King of Qin will ask.

But the compost itself takes three months, and to see the effect, you have to wait until next year's wheat harvest, so you don't have to think about it now. Corn and wheat rotation also depends on the climate in Guanzhong, I am afraid that two seasons a year can not be done, two years and three seasons are about the same, and it is necessary to test a round to be conclusive.

Han Chuan could only say yes, and simply went further, requesting that all the rice seeds be sent to the official warehouse for safekeeping-as far as Qin Lu's severe punishment was concerned, he was worried that if he didn't keep it well, he would have to hold him accountable, and hand it over as soon as possible to save his worries.

Tao He laughed, not thinking about this carefully, and promised to report to the county order. Not long after, sure enough, Cangqiangfu went to Taoxi to bring all the rice seeds back to the county.

But his reward had to wait, and another unexpected reward came first.

Han Xin couldn't stay at home now, as soon as he sat down to write silently, regardless of his father or mother, he drove him out to play when he saw it. Later, Han Wu also learned, and when he saw him writing on bamboo slips, he came to grab his pen and shouted: "Brother go out to play!" ”

So I can only play. At this time, the people in Taoxi followed Han Chuan to plant wheat together, the adults in Lizhong were not there, only children were playing, they were not fighting today, they were playing hide and seek.

Han Xin climbed a tree near the inner gate, and felt that this place was the best location, and he could see other people running around hiding, especially Ah Wu, who refused to hide with him and had to hide by himself—Han Wu was only five years old, so Han Xin didn't dare to let him out of his sight.

Oops, the kid squeezed between a tree and the courtyard wall, but his ass couldn't squeeze in, and it was exposed.

Zhang Dolphin ate a small stomach at a young age, and he couldn't squeeze into many places, and there were people in the places where he could hide, so he had to go around in the alleys, listening to the voice of the person who caught him, and went around to the other side to dodge, and almost bumped into it several times. Han Xin looked anxious for him, thinking that if he told him that he would take a conspicuous thing and wave it on the tree to direct him to run, he would definitely not be caught.

Oh no, I'm going to be discovered. But it's far away, and when the captor finds him, he can go down the tree and change places.

Just thinking about it, Han Xin suddenly saw two cars coming from the field outside the inner gate, one was the county's carriage and the other was the ox cart following behind, looking like it was coming to Peach Creek.

Is it the county official, is he here to find Lidian or to find his father? Han Xin didn't have the heart to play hide and seek, he kept staring curiously, and when he saw the carriage getting closer and closer, he went to the inner gate and talked to the inner gate supervisor for a few words, and drove directly into the inner door.

Hey, not to Song's house, not to your own house? Han Xin forgot that he was still playing hide and seek, climbed down the tree and followed, and did not forget to pull Han Wu out on the way.

Han Wu protested: "He hasn't found me yet, brother, you make trouble with me!" ”

"Stop playing, let's go, see what they do."

If he doesn't play, the children in the countryside are bored, and when they come to the carriage outside, there are too many children who run out of the hiding place and follow from afar. Zhang Dolphin also ran over panting, his eyes straightened: "The basket on the ox cart behind is money, right?" A basket of money! ”

It's not a big basket, it's a basket!

The carriage stopped at the door of Shi's house under the envious eyes of a group of children. Shi Wei was surrounded by others in surprise: "I went to your house, a lot of money, I went to your house." ”

Some people even encouraged him: "You go back and see what's going on, and then come out and tell us." ”

"No, I don't dare."

Shi was cunning, Han Wu was not cowardly, he pulled his brother with one hand and Shi with the other: "Then we are also relatives of his family, and we can go to relatives." ”

Shi Wei desperately retreated, refusing to go home. Han Xin was really curious, so he didn't care about him, and led Han Wu into the Shi family.

There was already a mess in the Shijia courtyard, and everyone was busy not knowing what to do. The little official who came by car was the assistant of the engineer, and said with a smile: "Shi Tong, you are also a subordinate of the engineer, and you are all your own people, don't be nervous like this." The engineer will dedicate the stepping to the ground, and Shaofu has made a batch of trials, and the effect is excellent. Therefore, on the reward of meritorious deeds, the stone Xing who made the stepping on the gong gave the duke, and there was another house, a hectare of fields, and a servant. Your father and son will settle down a little, and tomorrow they will go to the county to see the engineer, and the county will rush to make the treadmill for the use of rice. ”

He still complained a little: "You too, why don't you report such a good thing?" Or the engineer came to Huaiyin to find that the people used it, and asked a few words, otherwise I didn't know that it was made by your son, wouldn't it be a waste of credit. ”

Shi Tong was stunned, and before he could come back to his senses, Shi Xing also opened his mouth in a daze and said, "But this is what the eldest brother of the Han family asked me to do." ”

Han Wu suddenly became excited, and was about to shout, "My father did it", but Han Xin covered his mouth. These days, Han Chuan has learned Qin Law, and he can't help but complain to his wife, and Han Xin has also heard a few words.

It seems that Qin Lu does not encourage people to do things across industries, and his father is Tian Dian, and he doesn't know if he can do this.

Sure enough, the official asked the reason, muttered for a while, and asked Shi Xing to whisper a few words, and no longer stayed, but when Shi Xing didn't say that, he left the other reward from Xianyang, and left.

Shi Tong looked down and saw Han Xin and the brothers, so he called Han Xin: "Ashin, you go back and let your father come here, I have something to look for him." ”

At this time, Shi Wei dared to enter the courtyard and asked loudly: "Father, is the money for our family?" ”

"It's not." Shi Tong sank his face, "That's Ashin's family, don't worry about it." As he spoke, he glared at the eldest son, Shi Cang hurriedly lowered his head, feeling a little aggrieved, he didn't speak just now, wasn't he also stunned and didn't react, Father, you didn't have time to say it yourself just now, why are you still angry with me.

When Han Chuan was called, Shi Tong explained the reason to him and asked him to take the money away. Han Chuan understood what was going on, looked at the Shi family with different expressions, and said with a smile: "The Chu State doesn't pay attention to it, but the Qin State pays attention to each of its duties, and this credit is better than burying it, it is better to let Brother Xing go." Uncle doesn't have to care, you see my farming ability, are you afraid that I will lose the title to get it? ”

But Shi Tong still asked him to take the reward money, Shi Xing also said that the 100 acres of land should be given to him, Han Chuan was helpless, thought about it and said: "That's it, I will also take 30% of the harvest in the 100 acres of land." Maybe we'll have to borrow some kind of experiments. ”

Shi Xing immediately patted his chest and agreed, Han Chuan can plant whatever he wants, he has to work by himself, he must find someone to cultivate, he doesn't care, and leaves it all to Han Chuan.

"Okay, I still have some ideas, when I am idle in winter, I have to help Brother Tuoxing." Han Chuan said with a smile, and without waiting for others to say anything, he left.

He has a lot of things to do, and Shi Xing alone will definitely not be able to do it. But rushing is not a business, my uncle is willing to help, but he is bound by an errand from the government, and it is really tiring to take time to do it when he goes home. The same is true for Shikura, who is even more reluctant to do the work given by Han Chuan in his spare time. Now that there is a knighthood reward hanging, there must be no need to bother Shi Xing alone.
