Farmers' group pet: the blessings of powerful ministers are soft and deceitful

Chapter 59 This is the ancient farming society

According to this amount, the Jiang family's 17 taels of dowry gifts may take four or five years to save enough.

For the past four or five years, it is still intact, and there are no other expenses every year to survive.

But which family does not go to cut some meat to taste during the New Year?
Calculated based on the budget of only one tael per year, if you want to save 17 taels, it may take longer.

Thinking of this, Shen Chenlan couldn't help but respect Jiang Shi and Lin Ru even more.

For the sake of their daughter, the two of them spent many years of their family property in order to find a son-in-law.

However, if he didn't happen to pass through, the original owner came to the Jiang family only to harm the Jiang family.

It can only be said to be a coincidence.

And since he came here for more than a month, the Jiang family's daily food is already better than most other families in the village in his opinion.

He went to the town to buy with Jiang Ning, and Lin Ru gave them a tael of silver back.

In this way, he was already considered a wealthy household in the village—although he felt that there was still a big gap between him and the wealthy household in his imagination.

If the Jiang family is used as the standard line, most of the families in this village may not even be able to get enough food and clothing.

This is the ancient farming society.

Here Jiang Shi and Lin Ru watched Shen Chenlan calculate the number, and they began to frown, so they comforted him: "Shen Lan doesn't need to worry, our dry land also grows some corn and peanuts, and now my embroidery can also subsidize the family Take care of your family, and your family will try their best to support you when you study."

Today's farmers, paddy fields account for more than half of their income, and other scattered corn and peanuts can't shake anything.

I said this just so that Shen Chenlan wouldn't have to worry too much.

Listening to Lin Ru's words, Shen Chenlan smiled helplessly, and said, "It's not because I'm worried about not being able to study, I'm just thinking, maybe there's a way to increase the yield of our crops, this acre of land only produces three stones Rice, it is indeed a little less."

It was the first time for Jiang Shi to hear that three shi of rice per acre of land was considered a small amount. If in a famine year, one mu of land could produce one shi of rice, he would have already laughed.

These three stones of rice are still too little.

Sure enough, scholars do not understand Zhuangjing.

Only the people in the field know about this kind of crops.

Fortunately, a few days ago, he still thought that scholars were smart, but looking at it now, it is nothing more than that.

Although Jiang Shi thought so, he didn't show it, and diligently inserted all the seedlings.

The piece of land between their house and Liu's house was also short of water. He also asked someone to dig a hole on the ridge of the field to divert the water.

Now that the water has flowed into the fields, the impact of the water force is not great, so there is no need to worry about washing the sand down.

Just dig a hole and let the water slowly seep through.

The Liu family didn't know about this water diversion device until people came to plant rice seedlings.

When I first saw it, I was stunned for a moment. Every year because of this incident, there would always be some quarrels between their family and the Jiang family. Later, every year the Jiang family had to bring something over, and their family reluctantly gave in.

Anyway, Jiang's family is a wealthy family in the village, so there is nothing wrong with bringing some things here.

Give some benefits, and their Liu family reluctantly suffered from this dark loss, so they also tacitly agreed that the Jiang family will do the same this year.

I just waited and waited until it was time to plant rice seedlings, but there was no movement from the Jiang family.

I didn't know what was going on until I was going to plant seedlings in the field over there and walked on the stable ridge.

Immediately, I felt a little uncomfortable.

The Jiang family is also true. If there is a big deal, if they give some benefits, they will give in.

It took a lot of trouble to do this.

So stingy.
