Datang Nongwang

Chapter 141 Harvest
The only crops planted by Li Zhuang are wheat, millet, millet and beans.

Because it is located in the north, rice is not grown.

Li Chongyuan really wanted to grow rice, but the output of rice is not as high as these crops at present, and even if rice is grown in the north, not many people know how to grow it.

Millet is the most common grain at present, also known as yellow rice.

Millet is also a commonly grown grain nowadays. In some places it is called millet or millet.

As for the bean, it is just a bean.

Early October.

Early in the morning, before dawn, Qiao Su came to Li Chongyuan's house, "My lord, today is the day to harvest the crops, you have to get up and preside over the sacrifice."

Li Chongyuan, who was a little confused, got up quickly after hearing the sacrifice.

A few days ago, Qiao Su had mentioned this matter with Li Chongyuan.

In previous years, this sacrifice was presided over by Qiao Su.

But this year is different.

Li Chongyuan was in Li Zhuang, so it was natural that Li Chongyuan, the owner, would be the host.

Sacrifice is actually quite simple.

Kill a chicken, get some blood on it, and then say a few words according to the sacrificial words provided by Qiao Su, and then thank God, and then thank the court and so on.

but.

When the sacrifice began, Li Chongyuan began to play cards not according to the routine.

"This year, our crops in Lizhuang are growing well. I think that no matter what, we should harvest twice as much grain as compared to previous years. With the grain, you have to feed your children two more bites. Look at each family's food. Little baby, everyone is as thin as skin and bones." When Li Chongyuan first started offering sacrifices, his words were not right.

This also made Qiao Su wish to pull Li Chongyuan away, so as not to ruin Feng Shui.

Li Chongyuan looked around at the excited villagers, and said loudly: "After the crops are harvested this year, everyone will have to get busy again. There are too many weeds in our field this year. After the crops are harvested, We have to turn over the whole land, so as to remove some weeds and rhizomes, so that we can have a good harvest next year."

"Xiao Langjun, we will do whatever you say. The crops are growing really well this year. If it weren't for the horse manure you brought us, Xiao Langjun, we wouldn't have such a good harvest this year." Among the villagers An old man responded loudly to Li Chongyuan's call.

"Yes, Mr. Xiao Lang, we will do what you say we will do."

"Xiao Langjun, after harvesting the crops, I will definitely bring you the first bowl."

"Xiao Langjun, I also brought the first bowl."

All the villagers sincerely thank Li Chongyuan in their hearts.

The crops are growing well, and we don't need to harvest them to know that this year's grain will increase by one or two times.

Even after paying [-]% of the rent, the food left at home is still enough to last until this time next year.

In this way, there is no need to go to the owner to borrow food.

right now.

Not to mention the villagers of Lizhuang.

It can be said that all the common people and households in the world have to go to the master to borrow grain as long as they are in short supply.

If the owner is not good at borrowing, they can only sell this and that, and even sell their sons and daughters.

no way.

The condition is such a condition, if you want to survive, you have to sell it.

However, with the establishment of the Tang Dynasty, such things became less and less.

But in the current eight years of Zhenguan, such things still exist.

Li Chongyuan laughed happily when he saw that the villagers said they would give him the first bowl of grain.

What the first bowl of grain represented, Li Chongyuan knew it without thinking.

Youdao is the first bowl of food. Except for ghosts and gods, there are few people who respect people.

All the villagers can honor Li Chongyuan with the first bowl of grain, which is enough to show that Li Chongyuan has a place in the hearts of Lizhuang villagers.

Even Qiao Su, who wanted to drag Li Chongyuan away, froze there as if he had lost his soul after hearing what the villagers said.

"Okay, I've received everyone's wishes, and we don't have much to say. We will finish this year's work first, and then we will discuss next year's work. Everyone, get your tools and start!" Li Chongyuan didn't want to waste any more time. With a wave, the sacrifice was immediately ended.

When Dadu saw that Li Chongyuan had finished speaking, he quickly killed the chicken with a knife, and the blood dripped into the bowl.

Afterwards, all the villagers came over with their own knives, stained with a trace of blood, and rushed to their fields one after another.

Li Chongyuan, who had nothing to do, walked boredly into the field with his hands behind his back, like an old man.

Such a scene, Li Chongyuan will not let it go.

The harvesting of the crops can be said to be in full swing.

Whether it's an old man, a man, a woman, or a baby.

No matter how tired he was, there was still excitement on his face.

The harvesting of crops can be said to be the most tiring.

Li Chongyuan belonged to the south in his previous life, so he has done a lot of work like harvesting rice.

Moreover, when the big farming is busy, it is a race against time.

Wearing a straw hat on the head, in the hot summer, facing the scorching sun, arching the back, holding a sickle, and mechanically repeating the same technique, cutting the ripe rice.

This busy, is a month.

The hardest people in the world, in the words of Li Chongyuan, belong to farmers.

now.

This scene is happening again.

This made Li Chongyuan feel bitter, and made Li Chongyuan think of too many memories of his previous life.

Harvesting of crops.

Except for Lizhuang, it is happening everywhere in the north.

For the matter of harvesting the crops.

The DPRK and China have also agreed a long time ago.

At the Great Court Meeting on the first day of October, all the officials, or the royal family.

All have to go to the fields to inspect the fields in person, and even the royal family has an arrangement similar to farm work experience, where princes and princesses, big and small, are all pulled into the royal fields to experience the pain of farm work like a model.

Just as Li Zhuang was harvesting the crops.

The old lady also rushed to Li Zhuang with everyone in the Li family.

After Mrs. Da brought all the Li family members to Lizhuang, when she saw Li Chongyuan wearing a straw hat helping the villagers harvest the crops in the field, she felt distressed and said, "Yuaner, don't be too tired." own."

"Aniang, didn't I see that the crops grew well this year, so I wanted to try a few tricks. Aniang, you should sit and rest, so don't tire you." Li Chongyuan replied with a smile.

The old lady looked at the crops full of ears, and said happily: "Auntie is not tired, this year's crops are really good, it is several times better than previous years, this is really a bumper harvest. I But I heard from Qiao Su that all of this is due to you, Yuan Er."

"Auntie, don't praise me like that. I just like working with the land. If the crops grow well, everyone needs to work together. Only with fertility can the crops grow well and have a good harvest." The old lady was really embarrassed by her praise.

Is such a bumper harvest also called a big bumper harvest?
However, Li Chongyuan knew that in his previous life, with the efforts of the father of hybrid rice and a group of agricultural scientists and agricultural technology experts, one mu of land could produce more than 2000 catties of grain in two seasons.
