Chapter 106 Spring Plowing

After more than ten days of intense and busy work, spring ploughing finally started as scheduled. Although Xing Tianjun was in a hurry to do such a thing in the first year, and some things were not perfect, for these people who have lost their land for many years, they are satisfied that they can do this.

After the land was thawed, many people immediately began to enter the fields that were given to them and began to cultivate and cultivate. Cultivated land is very important. According to the old man surnamed Chen, who was invited by Xiao Tianjian as a consultant, there are many benefits of deep ploughing, which can preserve both water and fertilizer, and It is conducive to the root growth of crops and can increase the output of grain. He can't explain the specific reason, but the ploughing of the field must be deeply ploughed. However, this is a simple truth for the ordinary people who cultivate the land. Now the field belongs to them, and the grain they beat is basically theirs, so there is no need to Xing Tianjun. The people will urge them. How much strength will they have to cultivate? Once the ownership of the land changes, the people's enthusiasm for labor will be much higher, and there is no need for anyone to urge them at all.

During the spring ploughing, Xing Tianjun himself also left two or three thousand mu of self-retained land, basically in the good fields near Shuangfengzhai and Lianhuazhai, and the cultivation here is the personal participation of the soldiers of Xing Tianjun, which is used as a military reclamation field, and most of the people of Xing Tianjun used to be farming. One thing is not strange at all. In addition, Mr. Chen is here to give them advice, so when the people are engaged in spring ploughing, Xing Tianjun also began spring ploughing.

After all, it is the first to get the moon near the water. When Xing Tianjun distributed the ploughing cattle and agricultural tools, he did not forget to leave some for himself. Xiao Tianjian also attached great importance to these military reclamation fields. He personally went down to the field to preside over the plow ceremony, and with the help of the iron head, he helped the ploughed the plough and drove the cattle himself. Spring ploughing began in the sound of firecrackers.

Although Xing Tianjun's strength is currently stretched, after Xiao Tianjian analyzed the situation, he still left only the patrols and sentries, and the rest of the people went to work to reclaim their own land as soon as possible.

And the people of Xing Tianjun are all strong and laborious. In addition, the cattle and farm tools are in place, and the land reclamation is very fast. In three or four days, the land reclamation was completely ploughed and deep, and then the land began to be rectified.

With these people working, Xiao Tianjian can't get involved at all, and what he cares about is only about the grain varieties to be planted.

Xing Tianjun can't grow the same thing as the common people, because most of their plots belong to good land, and they are also relatively concentrated. In addition to sowing normal spring wheat and sorghum, they also have to divide some land to grow vegetables. Although they are not in short supply of food at the time, they can be said to be It is impossible for people to eat only staple food at a meal. Vegetables are also a necessity. While solving the problem of being full, we should also solve the problem of soldiers eating vegetables. Therefore, Xing Tianjun specially allocated a part of the land in their military reclamation field to grow vegetables, not to mention letting soldiers eat vegetables in winter, at least in spring, summer and autumn. Ji, you should be able to eat some fresh vegetables and reserve some pickles in winter. Xiao Tianjian is not careless about this matter.

And Xiao Tianjian can't pay much attention to the sowing problem of ordinary crops. At present, he is most concerned about the corn and sweet potatoes he has. This thing has not been promoted in the hinterland of China at present, and there is no place to find seeds and roots, so the only thing he has on hand. It is the original species that they will expand in the future. Xiao Tianjian dares not be careless at all.

For this reason, he specially asked Mr. Chen to be responsible for this matter and handed over the corn seeds and sweet potatoes to him. Although Mr. Chen was very familiar with the cultivation of other grains and vegetables, he was also the first time to grow these two new things and did not know much about their habits.

So Xiao Tianjian searched for some knowledge about these two crops in his mind and told Mr. Chen. Mr. Chen shook his head and said, "This is not easy!" The kind of corn mentioned by the general sounds a little like sorghum, but according to the general, it can't be planted until the summer harvest. If it is planted early, it is estimated that it will be difficult to germinate! The little old man dares not take this risk! In case these seeds are spoiled, children can't afford it! To be safe, in the opinion of the little old man, it will at least not be able to plant this thing until after April. In that case, it will be hot, and the problem will not be too big!

However, according to the general, sweet potatoes can still be planted now. This thing is first cut to let them germinate, and then plant them in the field! This kind of thing is not troublesome. According to the general, this thing can produce thousands of catties per mu of real estate. The little old man can't believe that what can produce so much! If this thing can feed thousands of pounds of land per mu, how many people can it feed!"

After all, Xiao Tianjian is not an insider. He squatted on the rut of the field that has just been prepared and said to Mr. Chen, "I'm just hearsay. How to grow it? It depends on your father-in-law to explore more!" In a word, I only have one requirement. The output is good. I don't ask them to produce too much in the first year, but my father-in-law should try his best to keep these seeds, which can't be absolute! Once it's over, there's really no place to find in our area in the future! If it is planted, you should choose the good seeds and then expand them! I'll leave this matter to my father-in-law! You have to pay more attention! If you want anything, you can go to Jinfuzi!"

Mr. Chen quickly nodded and agreed to let Xiao Tianjian rest assured that he would protect these things as eyeballs and never let them be absolute. Moreover, he also proposed a way to plant them in batches, plant a little first, and then try to plant a little every month in the future. After a year, he will know when to plant them. It's the best to go, and there will be no harvest due to the weather.

Xiao Tianjian heard that this method was good, so he asked the old man to try to do it. As long as he did it in the first year, he would know how to grow it in the second year. Who let him live in the city when he was a child and did not learn agriculture? This kind of thing can only be done.

Once spring ploughing begins, things will gradually decrease. The people are busy farming. It is difficult for people to come out and make trouble. What's more, this year for them, it is also their first year to grow their own land. Almost everyone is full of energy and ploughing for fear that they can't serve them well. Seasonal grain, and as long as there is not too much drought this year, they don't have to pay rent when this season's grain is harvested, and the days will be much better in the future.

But there are also a few greedy lazy people. After receiving the grain seeds given to them by Xing Tianjun, they didn't take them to plant. Instead, they first used these grains to make a few good meals for themselves. When it was time to farm, there were no seeds, so they ran to the chiefs to ask for grain seeds.

As a result, after Xiao Tianjian knew, he ordered people to take back their fields without saying a word, and directly beat them up and rushed them to the mine for reform. Since they don't want to farm well, go mining to save them from wasting food and land.

With such a precedent, no one dares to take care of their fields carelessly. After the beginning of spring, in the jurisdiction of Xing Tianjun, there was a busy scene in the wasteland everywhere.

And Xiao Tianjian was finally able to take a long breath, so he left Lianhuazhai again and walked towards Shuangfengzhai.
