Chapter 313 Harvesting Wheat Part One
These cornbreads are steamed today. They are all made of cornmeal mixed with soybean flour. They are very nutritious food.

"Wuxia Wuyan, you share the corn buns with everyone, let everyone have a taste." The two responded, and went to the crowd to share one by one.

Shen Lanyue continued: "Although this is not a good thing, it allows the common people to eat without going hungry. No one can guarantee that the weather will be smooth every year. If there is a bad year, this corn is the best food. It is not easy to eat. Digestion, eat two and you will not feel hungry all morning or afternoon. You can say that you are not full when you eat steamed buns, but you can’t afford steamed buns. This is your best choice. It is high-yielding, drought-resistant and flood-resistant. Hunger resistance. If you want to grow something, I will turn all the corn seeds I planted this year to the imperial court, and then I will spread this planting technology to the public so that the common people will no longer starve because of lack of food."

Everyone in the room ate corn buns, which tasted sweet and soy, but it was much more delicious than the corn buns they ate.

People in the village shouted, "Girl Yue'er, we are willing to plant, and we all believe in you."

He Lianjue also smiled, "If this little girl is a man, she has a bright future, even if she is a daughter, she can do this. A few words will inspire the common people. But this cornbread really has a special flavor. This is good for the country and the people He must strongly support the good deeds."

He Lianxiu understood his father's meaning and said to Shen Lanyue: "Little girl, you are cutting and planting. When the wheat production comes out, my father will give you a reward. You have done so many things for the sake of the people, and the reward is also worth it." It's time to come down."

Of course, Shen Lanyue saw the eyes of the father and son meeting, "Okay, let's harvest the wheat quickly."

"Okay, harvest the wheat."

Old man Shen shouted, "Boys, let's do it, harvest the wheat."

Immediately, more than 20 young men went down to the ground with sickles, one by one, and they started cutting.

Not to be outdone, He Lianxiu and Tang Cheng ordered the Yacha, "You guys go too, if you collect faster than Uncle Shen and the others, you will be rewarded later."

Dozens of yamen servants rushed into the field screaming as soon as they heard it. They were all carrying sickles, and they were originally asked to help harvest. Now if there is a reward for fast harvesting, can they not be happy?
There was more than seven mu of land, and the wind blew away in the afternoon. Old man Shen led more than 20 people on one side of the field, and dozens of yamen ordered by He Lianxiu and Tang Cheng were on the other side, harvesting from the two ends to the middle.

It can be said to be astonishingly fast. It only took one afternoon to bring down all the wheat in the field.

Then load the ox carts and pull them to the wheat field. I don’t know how many carts have been pulled back and forth, and each cart is full.

In the evening, the harvest of the seven acres of land was completed, and all of them went into the wheat field, and the rest was pressed to dry the wheat.

In the evening, Shen Lanyue prepared a rich dinner for everyone, as well as various fruits.

What everyone eats is called a guest and host enjoy themselves.

After a few days of busy work with the help of the yamen in the wheat field, all the wheat came out, dried and packed into ninety sacks, and each sack weighed more than 100 catties.

He Lianxiu and the others are also here to help every day, and of course the yield of wheat is in their eyes.

After they were all installed, they began weighing in front of the whole village and He Lianxiu in the wheat field.

The first bag is 110 catties, the second bag is [-] catties, the third bag is [-] catties, …………………

Just weigh a bag like this, and Wushuang writes down the next bag.

After weighing the ninety sacks, Wushuang added up all the weights and subtracted the weight of the sacks. Three sacks counted as one catty, and thirty sacks equaled thirty catties.
