survival in the wilderness

Chapter 102 Ploughing
Hua Min hurried out with a basket in his hand, pulling Lin Yan to run away.

"What's going on, why are you in such a hurry?" Lin Yan grabbed Hua Min hard to prevent her from running away.

"There is a big event at the wood factory, and everyone has gone there, let's go there quickly."

"You can tell me clearly, what is the big deal?"

Hua Min said mysteriously: "I won't be surprised if I say it, but you must be surprised to see it."

Lin Yan's curiosity was aroused, and he and Hua Min trotted all the way to the wood factory.

Many people were rushing over here, and she was even more curious about what was the big deal that brought so many people together.

As soon as she thought of this, she saw a group of people hugging and walking out, the leader was Yun Qing, and the person behind her was carrying something.

With just one glance, Lin Yan was stunned.

"How about it, isn't it a big surprise?" Hua Min smiled close to Lin Yan.

Lin Yan nodded, "When did you make it? What is it for?"

"I made it two days ago. I went to the field to show everyone. The wooden plow was originally made by a wood factory. After trying it out, the plow was easy to break. Lin Yun and Shi Zhi changed the plow into an iron one, so That’s why there are so many people around, wanting to see the effect of this iron plow.”

"Very well, I didn't even notice that you did such a big thing. It should be no problem, the iron plow is stronger and more durable. It's just what you use to pull the plow, can't it be a human?"

Hua Min shook his head, "It was pulled by humans before, but Tie Da thought it would be better to replace it with cows after trying it. Didn't you bring back two little calves, they have grown up a lot, and Tie Da raised them very well."

"If you don't tell me, I've forgotten about you, son of a bitch. Let's go and have a look."

Lin Yan couldn't wait. When he brought Niu Zizi back, he handed it over to Tie Da and the others to take care of him, and she didn't care.Tie Da is the immigrant Dashi, and they all changed their surnames to Tie.Living in the northernmost part, it is rarely seen at ordinary times.

When he arrived at the field, Tie Da was already waiting with his ox.The little bull at the beginning has grown into a big black bull, looking very tough.

The black bull has a nose ring and is tied with a rope. Its eyes are peaceful, without the ferocity of a bison.

Several people put the iron plow on the black cow with hemp rope and other tools.

Tie Da led the ox, and Yun Qing held the handle of the plow, and moved slowly.

Seeing the black soil turned up where they walked, everyone burst into laughter.

"It's much faster than people digging."

"Tie Da has restrained this black cow, and he is quite obedient. It would be great if my family also raised a cow."

"Hey, there are so many bison, if you go and tame one of them, you might have one."

"Isn't this looking for death? The buffalo is too fierce to be subdued. We still have to raise it from the buffalo, or we can steal the buffalo."

The crowd was chattering, and the plowers continued to speed up gradually.

In less than half an hour, a large area was turned over.Seeing such an effect, who wouldn't be moved.

Lin Yan was also very moved. With so much land in her family, it would take time and effort for Huahong to dig it with his head. If he could plow the land, he could turn it over in a few days.

Not only that, the plowed ground has deep ravines, the weeds have been turned over, the leaves are buried in the ground, and the roots are exposed. After the sun has passed, they die completely.

Compared with people digging the ground, it is faster and better, and it is the best choice for farming.

Tie Er was not far from Lin Yan, seeing her envious look, he said naively, "I'll plow the land for your family."

"Really?" Lin Yan's eyes sparkled, "I'll give you a reward, you help my family plow the land."

Cows are a rarity, and there are only two of them at present, but iron plows can produce many.

Tie Er is Tie Da's younger brother. The two brothers admire Lin Yan very much. Every change in Sun City is extremely novel in their eyes.

He shook his head hurriedly, "You don't need to pay, I am willing to plow the land for your family."

"How can I let you do it for nothing." Lin Yan disagreed, "You should be paid for your hard work. That's it. I'll come to you when my land is open."

Sun City was very lively on this day, and the story of the iron plow and the ox spread quickly.

The two cows immediately attracted everyone's attention, and they were surprised.

Many people want to rent cattle, and some people want the Tie family to plow the land with the cattle and people, and they will pay 1 cent for plowing an acre of land.

When Lin Yan came back at night, he heard Hua Hong talk about it, and Tie Da agreed to plow the land for the people in the city for 1 cent per mu.

Huahong enviously said: "Who would have thought that those two cows would become treasures. If I had known this, I would have kept it by myself."

"Auntie doesn't have time to raise cattle. Cows eat more than pikas, and they are busy enough to cut grass and feed every day. It's pretty good now. Tie Da and the others are outsiders, and they have a way to make money. Let them integrate into Sun City."

"I'm just envious. There is a cow, how fast the plowing is. The work is easy and labor-saving. If we have so many fields in our family, it will take a lot of time to turn over the fields."

Lin Yan said with a smile: "Please Tie Da and the others help, the things that can be done with a lot of money, I don't have to work hard to dig the ground. Next year, I will plant more wheat, and I will weed together Woolen cloth."

The two mothers ate dinner while chatting.

She had already given the blueprint to Hong Ling for them to study on their own.Lin Yan didn't need to copy any more books, and fell asleep after concentrating on his practice.

When I work in the fields every day, I can sleep in seconds at night, sleep until dawn, and repeat the life of the previous day.

The days passed quickly, and it entered mid-June. Under Lin Yan's careful care every day, the wheat seedlings grew much better than the first generation, with thicker leaves and stronger stalks.

According to this trend, a batch of good wheat seeds will be harvested in two months.

After chasing the sparrows away with a branch, Lin Yan sat down on the ground and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Running around in the field every day, her small body has become thinner but more powerful.

Once a fat baby, now a lean black monkey who has learned to climb trees.

I don't know if it's because of her mental strength, but she also has great strength and a great body.

He also eats a lot, and every time he sees Huahong, he smiles happily.Seeing Lin Yan like this, she no longer had to worry about not being able to support her.

It's time for the second crop of juma to be harvested, and people are busy in the fields, carrying bundles of juma to their homes.

The yield of Ju Ma is very high, and the stalks, hemp silk, and pockmarked seeds can all be used. It can be said that there is no place to waste.

However, pockmarks are piling up more and more, and no one is idle eating pockmarks every day, so the consumption is limited.

In the past few days, Lin Yan heard a lot of people talking about too many pockmarks, except for making seeds and eating a little, some of them were spoiled.

It is a pity to waste the pockmarked seeds that have been planted and harvested so hard.

Unlike hemp silk, no amount of production is enough.

Masi can be sold for money, but pockmarks cannot be sold. Every family has them, and there are many in the wild. Who will buy them? People are worried about smashing their hands.
