Chapter 301 The people of Wanxian County have a way to live
With the crow of the rooster, Chen Laoshi rubbed his eyes and got up from the bed.
The morning in Wanxian was a little cold. Chen Houshi put on his clothes and washed his face with cold water. He suddenly became much more awake.
There are many homeless wastelands in this generation. The government said that whoever cultivates them will be considered to be.
Chen honestly said that such a good opportunity must not be missed, and he must reclaim a few more acres of land.
If he were alone, he would definitely be too busy. Fortunately, he borrowed a cow from the government. This solved the big problem. The cows plowed the land much faster than those of the people.
Chen Houshi is 43 years old this year, but he is still alone and can't get a wife.
He often secretly scolded that this world of killing will not give people a way to survive. The Western Army and the official army surrounded Wanxian and fought in chaos, and no one would give up when they went back and forth. The young people could run away, and Chen Laoshi also ran away.
But later one of his fellow villagers found him and said that the Western thieves were driven away by the government army. Today, Sichuan East is the new Sichuan Governor Wen Anzhi in charge of affairs.
Governor Wen is a great charity. Not only does he not arrest the strong men, but he also encourages the people to settle down. Whoever cultivates wasteland will be considered. If you really don’t want to reclaim wasteland, you can rent high-quality farmland directly from the government, and the government will also reduce rent and interest.
At first, Chen Houshi didn't believe it. How could such a good thing happen in this world?
I won’t say anything else. Didn’t the government just rely on taxes to survive? How could it be that you can’t get along with yourself?
But his little fellow villager patted his chest and promised that what he said was true. He had reclaimed two acres of wasteland and rented another acre of high-quality farmland.
The little fellow persuaded him repeatedly, and finally Chen Houshi was a little moved.
He said in his heart that hearing is false, seeing is true. Since it is so evil, he should always go and take a look with his own eyes.
With the mentality of watching the fun, Chen Laoshi followed the fellow villager back to Wanxian.
I didn't know if I didn't look at it, but I was shocked when I saw it.
I saw that there were many farmers who were sweating and farming in the farmland outside Wanxian Town.
Many of them, Chen Laoshi looks familiar, and some can even name them.
I'm really back, I'm really back!
Chen Laoshi burst into tears and cried in disgrace.
From that moment on, he vowed to do his best to reclaim a few acres of his own land.
This is a good time.
If it were in the peaceful era, a mu of high-end land would cost more than ten taels of silver, and the key was that no one would sell it.
If you can't survive unless you have to, who will sell land? That's something that only prodigal sons will do!
Whether it is a landlord or an ordinary farmer, it is more important to see land than life.
Anyone with a few acres of land must be carefully reclaimed and left to future generations.
Which one is willing to sell?
It’s great in troubled times, but it gives him the opportunity to cultivate and cultivate.
With these places, Chen Chen had a bright future.
The harvest in the first year will not be very good, but the harvest will be much better after one year of fertilizer and the second year of planting crops in the third year.
Chen Laoshi secretly swore in his heart that in three years, he must save money to buy his own cow in three years.
In this way, there is no need to borrow the government's cow.
After all, the cattle from the government are only used for reclaiming wasteland. If you borrow them after reclaiming them, you have to pay.
It’s okay if you don’t have money for the time being, so you owe it and get it to pay for it when the crops are harvested.
Chen Houshi doesn’t want to owe the government money all the time, so he must buy a cow, it’s just a matter of time.
Now that the land has been almost overturned, the next step is to delve into it.
Chen Laoshi left the house and brought the cow from the cowshed, and walked out while eating dry steamed cakes.
When he saw the little fellow villager Sidan, he smiled and said hello: "Danwa, where are you going?"
"Uncle Chen, don't you know yet? The government is going to give us seeds, and everyone is rushing to the city. Do you want to go too?"
Chen Houshi was stunned when he heard this. He gave birth to seeds? Is there such a good thing?
"Isn't this fake?"
"What's the fake? Everyone has gone, so I have to go there too, I'm afraid I won't be able to catch up if I go too late."
After saying that, Sidan was about to rush to the road.
"Hey, wait for me!"
Chen Laoshi swallowed and spitted: "I'll tie the cow back first."
After saying that, he walked quickly towards the cowshed.
After he tied the cow up, he ran all the way to catch up with Sidan and asked panting: "Danwa, why did the government suddenly become so good?"
Until now, Chen Houshi still feels a little unbelievable.
In the past, the government gave people the impression that it was fierce. If you don’t pay food, you would just take the iron chain to the yamen and make a board.
The meat of fried bamboo shoots tasted bad. After I took off my pants, I felt so painful that the big bamboo board hit the butt film.
Chen Laoshi once had a board, and he really didn't want to try it for the second time.
"Hehe, I can't explain this clearly. But it must be related to Governor Wen. When Governor Wen came to eastern Sichuan, the government treated us a lot more harmoniously."
"Hey, the governor is really a living Bodhisattva."
Chen Houshi followed and praised a few words, Adam's apple swayed and said, "I just don't know how many seeds I can get this time."
Seeing Chen Laoshi's appearance as if he was obsessed with money, Sidan laughed out loud: "This is not good. But your two acres of land should be enough to plant it."
"That's great!"
Chen Houshi clenched his fists excitedly, and his eyes shone brightly.
It's not his excitement either.
You should know that seeds are a very important material in this era.
No matter how tight the life of an ordinary farmer lives, he or she has to leave some grain as seeds. Otherwise, what will be used to sow seeds next year?
If you eat even the seeds, the current hunger will be over, but what should you do next year?
Will the whole family drink the northwest wind?
Chen Laoshi naturally has no seeds in his hands.
He originally wanted to buy some, even on credit. But now that the government is willing to send seeds to everyone, he certainly doesn't want to spend another in vain money.
Like most ordinary people in this era, Chen Houshi was careful in his calculations and lived a life with his belt.
The county town of Wanxian is not big. Chen Laoshi and Sidan entered the city one after another and followed the flow of people to the direction of the county government.
The crowds were surging, with shoulders wiping and kicking. Apart from the days when visiting temple fairs during the Chinese New Year, Chen Laoshi had never seen the county town so lively.
After finally moving to the county government office, Chen Laoshi was blocked and could not see anything.
As for Sidan, let alone, his eyes were dark.
Chen Houshi was angry and annoyed, but Sidan turned his eyes and said, "Uncle Chen, lift me up."
Chen said honestly, can you see this little kid just by lifting it up?
Without saying a word, he tried hard to lift the four eggs up.
Sidan could see the scene in front of him clearly at once.
