Chapter 62
Not only was he not worried now, but he also somehow felt that this bitch was quite hurt.

After thinking about it, he slapped his thigh again.

Such a wonderful method, why didn't he think of it?

You must know that his family's paddy field is next to the mountain of no return, but he just doesn't live there, but it is more dangerous than the mountain over there when working.

If these were planted earlier, even snakes would not dare to drill them.

Zhaizhu Zhao decided that when the next season's rice is planted, he will also clear the area at the foot of the mountain and plant cocklebur and thorny catalpa.

He didn't have the whole plant, but seeing that the whole plant dug up by the Si family had grown quite a lot, he probably wouldn't mind giving him some seeds.

Zhou Qiqi really didn't care, she had dug the whole plant and brought it back. The roots and leaves weren't hurt much, and they didn't wilt when they were planted, so the seeds must be able to mature.

Cocklebur is a good thing. Although Zhou Qiqi was very careful when planting it, one or two would still stick to her hair from time to time, and it was very difficult to tear it off every time.

Seeing the Si family gloat over others' misfortune, suddenly they didn't care so much about their hair.

Of course they get stuck on their clothes too, but it's not nearly as frustrating as getting stuck in their hair.

After working for six or seven days, I planted cocklebur and thorny catalpa on the edge of the ditch, and dried all the millet in the house.

There are only 450 catties in total, and after paying the tax, there are only [-] catties left, which are still unhulled.

It's actually quite annoying to have to work so hard for this, but it's also something that can't be helped.

The market in the Exiled Lands is like this, there is nothing fair or unfair to say, anyway, the people who see this place are not pleasing to the eye, so the rent is very expensive.

Even if you buy a paddy field, you have to pay [-]% of the tax after the harvest, and the tax is so heavy.

It's not that Zhou's officials are ruthless. In fact, even the old King of Zhou is a poor man. The reason why he behaves like this is because Daxi's exploitation is too severe.

In order to allow the people to eat, we had to encourage more farming.

This situation is difficult to change. Zhou Qiqi was worried about it when she was still Wang Ji. After all, this is something that every monarch wants to change, but she can't think of a good way.

Now she doesn't have to worry, let the stinky brother worry, first light a piece of wax for him.

Just when Zhou Qiqi thought he was done with work and could finally take a breather, the Yang brothers finally finished cutting their rice and emptied the paddy fields.

Si Chen asked her very excitedly: "Auntie, other people's homes have started planting, when will ours start?"

Zhou Qiqi: ...

It suddenly occurred to her that harvesting rice was just the beginning, and the [-] mu of paddy fields she had just bought were still waiting for her to plant them.

Miscalculated.

Just looking at such a large piece, she felt a pain in her back.

I don’t know if it’s too late to make seedling throwing trays. Thinking about it, it should be too late, but if you make a pair of water shoes, there should be no problem, right?
When she was saving people earlier, she found a large rubber tree not far from the swamp. If you cut a few more trees, you should be able to gather enough rubber in a short time.

"Plant, you raise the seedlings first." Zhou Qiqi thought to himself, the good paddy fields can't be left unused.

If you don't plant it, next year it will be full of grass, and it will be even more troublesome.

This year is a time of war outside, gold, silver and treasures are not as reliable as food, no matter how hard or tired you are, you have to plant food.

It would be great if we could invite someone to plant it, but unfortunately, who doesn't have any paddy fields in ten miles and eight villages?Rent it if you don’t have it, there will always be one, no one will choose to abandon their paddy fields for the few pennies.

Zhou Qiqi continued to sigh, it would be great if there was a planter from the last life at this time, the fully automatic one, she didn't need to plow or rake, and she didn't need her waist to sow the fields by pinch by pinch.

It's a pity that this thing only exists in dreams.

I was feeling melancholy, and suddenly felt something was wrong.

"Eat chicken." The fourth child looked at her with his fingers in his mouth.

No matter how dull Zhou Qiqi was, she could sense such hot eyes very quickly.

She took a look at the fourth child, and asked with a smile, "Fourth child, who told you to eat chicken?"

The fourth child had a naive look on his face, he was at a loss for a moment, then quickly turned his head and pointed at the first and third children hiding behind the straw pile.

"Brothers, sisters, and uncles."

Zhou Qiqi smiled and squinted her eyes, reached out her hand to touch his head, found a bamboo branch out of nowhere, and rushed towards the haystack.

The first and third juniors obviously had been prepared for a long time, and they ran away like birds before she could make a move.

"I'm going out for a while, I have to come back later." Zhou Qiqi chased after a few steps and stopped, retracting the bamboo branch into the space, planning to cut the rubber as soon as it was still early in the sky.

There are so many leeches and water snakes in the paddy field, she doesn't want to have close contact with them.

Looking back, with water shoes, those flooded crayfish can be caught.

The area between Lin County and Ze County is only the edge of the swamp, but it is also more than two miles wide. There is a gray misty miasma floating on the swamp, which is only closed around noon.

There are many mosquitoes hidden in the miasma, many of which are poisonous, so it is extremely dangerous to enter the miasma.

Zhou Qiqi was not afraid, but unless it was absolutely necessary, she didn't want to be confrontational.

There are many black crocodiles hidden in the swamp. At first glance, they thought it was black wood.

Before the end of the world, Zhou Qiqi wanted a real crocodile leather bag in her dreams, but now the only thing she is interested in is their flesh, not the piece of skin under its stomach.

I wonder if crocodile meat is delicious?

Zhou Qiqi thought to herself, if there is a crocodile that doesn't have long eyes and rushes up, then she doesn't mind tasting it.

Zhou Qiqi didn't use supernatural powers, but used her internal strength to walk across the swamp on the head of the black crocodile.

The speed is very fast, and often when the black crocodile reacts and opens its mouth wide, she has already walked over.

It only took a moment to reach the other side, glanced at the crocodiles, turned and walked towards the rubber forest.

These insidious and cunning guys were all stepped on their heads, and none of them dared to go ashore to fight her.

In the wild rubber forest, rubber trees grow unevenly, and there are very few plants other than rubber trees, so the road becomes much easier to walk.

People's evaluation of the rubber forest is "no eagle flying up, no snake down", and they call it a green desert.

Zhou Qiqi naturally relaxed a lot after entering the forest, and then started with the rubber tree.

Probably because no one has cut the trees here, there is more milky white rubber than she imagined, and after picking up some glue, she tried to rub some on the shoes.

After the wind dried, I tried it and found that it was okay, so I started to work.

After being busy for about half an hour, suddenly there was movement in the woods, and she couldn't help turning her head to look over.

It was found to be an ordinary wild boar, about five or six hundred catties, and it looked somewhat similar to a domestic black pig, but it didn't look so fierce.

But just as Zhou Qiqi thought about it, she saw this wild boar rushing over.
