Chapter 97 Cotton Planting
Meng Yi had heard Zhao Jun talk about intermarriage between Guanwai people and Beidi people before, but he didn't expect to see one with his own eyes so soon.

The woman had a gorgeous face with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and she was holding a sleeping baby in her arms.

"My lord, although I am from outside the Guan, my husband is from Beidi. He also owns fields in Beidi, and I have also entered the household registration of Beidi County. I hope you can make it easier for me."

Doss begged, but dared not make any movements for fear of waking the child.

Meng Yi looked at the child in her arms with an unbearable expression on his face.

It stands to reason that her husband should be able to grow cotton if he has a field in Beidi, but she is an outsider after all.

Meng Yi hesitated again, and after a while he still handed over the decision to Zhao Jun.

"What's the matter, Master Meng."

Zhao Jun was standing next to Qingliu and was explaining from time to time, when he was suddenly called out, saying that Meng Yi was looking for her?

Doss stood in the corner. At first, she thought it was hopeless, but unexpectedly, another adult came, and it was actually a female adult.

"Master Zhao is like this. This woman is from outside the Guan, and her husband is from the Northland. He has a field. Can he get the seeds?"

Meng Yi had some guesses about Zhao Jun's answer.

"Of course, why not, as long as there are people from Beidi in their family and fields in Beidi. At most, you should be more detailed when you register."

Doss immediately let go of his uneasy mood.

"In the future, you don't need to ask me about this kind of thing, it will be passed."

"Okay, I'm busy, what's the matter with you?"

Zhao Jun muttered a few words, and quickly returned to the other side.

Meng Yi shook his head helplessly, it really is.

"Then just register and go directly there to get the seeds."

Doss bent over holding the child, full of gratitude.

Doss had just recovered from his excitement when he realized that he was not holding anything.

When I first came here, I never expected to receive money and things now.

What to do now.

Just when Doss was in a dilemma, Aunt Wang who was waiting outside came in to help her get the things.

"For such a long time, I thought that if the adults disagree, it's fine if you agree. The aunt can carry this thing easily."

Doss hurriedly thanked, and both of them walked back happily.

Only Liu Cuihong is still immersed in the sadness that her family has too little land and does not earn as much as Aunt Wang's family.

After the group of people who received the seeds left, the news was brought to a place a little further away.

Soon people from further afield came.

"That's not true. I got all the money. I heard from the sheriff that the quantity is limited, and it will be gone after it's distributed. Hurry up."

Aunt Wang returned home and said to her neighbors.

Many people rushed to the county guard's mansion, and those who came too late to catch up were even greener.

Finally, near evening, all the seeds prepared by Mr. Zhao were distributed.

Basically, most of the land in the North has been registered, and the cotton planting area is close to thousands of acres.

"Master Meng, Qingliu worked hard today, let's continue tomorrow."

To finish work next night, Zhao Jun smiled and said to the two of them.

Compared with the workload of terraced fields before, today is really easy.

Meng Yi also declined with a smile.

"It didn't take much effort for me to register.

So he was very impressed with Qingliu.

Originally, he also thought that Qingliu might just be Zhao Jun's maid, or someone she wanted to support.

But today, I saw her standing there and kept saying this to people, her movements and tone were very swift and generous.

He didn't hesitate at all, which made him admire him.

As night fell, another day passed, and they all retired to the officer's mansion to rest well, because there was work waiting for them the next day.

Si time is approaching.

Zhao Jun couldn't help but regret very much, why didn't he set the time later.

You must know that since she came out, she has rarely been able to sleep late.

Don't even think about sleeping in when you start growing cotton now.

She spread out on the bed full of resentment, and let out a long sigh.

In the end, I woke up with difficulty in extreme reluctance.

When they arrived, there was already a row of people around the gate of the Sheriff's Mansion.

Governor Yu also stood at the door early.

"Sir, you are here."

Yu Zhaoyi stepped forward to say hello.

"Well, so many people have come, and the time is up, so I'm ready to start talking."

She looked at the people who had been standing in the dark for several times, and hurriedly prepared to start.

"Everyone be quiet, this is an adult from Xianyang, mainly here to teach you how to grow cotton, everyone should listen carefully."

Yu Zhaoyi walked to the front and shouted loudly, and then introduced Zhao Jun.

Many of the people below were people who had seen her yesterday.

But for the person from Xianyang, there is still a female adult who has never been there before, everyone is very curious.

Because I have never seen a woman who can be such a big official.

So when Zhao Jun started to speak, everyone listened very seriously.

"Everyone be quiet and listen carefully. I believe that everyone should really want to grow cotton well. After all, the better the cotton grows, the more everyone will earn. Okay, that's no nonsense. Let me tell you about this cotton. How."

As soon as she went up, she used the final reward to motivate everyone, and then started serious teaching.

"It's basically like this. The method of planting is not very difficult. The main thing is to use the composting method I told you. Cotton planting must be fertilized, otherwise the growth will not be good."

"The rest is regular weeding and pest control."

"When the cotton matures in September and October, the stalks and leaves of the cotton will wither, leaving only the top white flowers, which is what we want."

"Because I came here a bit late this time, everyone must sow the seeds quickly. Planting them late may delay the germination of the seeds."

"But you don't have to worry about the harvest, because if there are no accidents, I will still come at that time."

Zhao Jun already has the idea of ​​building a cotton workshop in the north, so she will definitely come back when the cotton is harvested and made.

She explained the process in detail, emphasizing the method of composting, because cotton has a great demand for nutrients.

After she finished speaking, she went down to the crowd and personally answered many people's questions.

It wasn't until noon that the crowd gradually dispersed, and she was already talking dry.

After listening to this class, the common people are ready to plant the seeds as soon as possible after hearing her instructions.

All of a sudden, the whole Beidi County was busy, and those lands that were usually idle were also stepped up.

Except for the fields where corn has been planted, most of the remaining fields are planted with cotton.

Those who received the seeds did it happily.

But Aunt Wang's family, which has nine acres of land, is a little worried.
