Li An previously proposed to open these labor insurance workshops, and let several of his wives, who have nothing to do, take responsibility, in order to promote the concept that workers must protect in Great Tang, whether it is a craftsman building a building, Craftsmen who are paving roads, or other hard-working craftsmen, must do the most basic protection. They cannot participate in labor without protection in order to reduce the casualties caused by labor as much as possible.

Through continuous publicity, many laborers and foremen have already recognized Li An’s theory. I believe that some labor insurance investments are cost-effective and can increase labor efficiency. Of course, some are to please Li An and take care of Li An. The home business has achieved better results than bribery.

At this time, it is very close to spring farming. The landowners and self-cultivators around Beijing are busy preparing for spring farming. Since many self-cultivators are selling land into the workshops, there are few self-cultivators around Beijing, and most of them are It is a large and small landowner with more than 1000 acres of land. Li An is also a landlord. He owns at least a few thousand acres of land, and there are many officials who own more than 1000 acres of land.

Although land is not a good thing, since ancient times are the root cause of world turmoil, but at this moment, the Great Tang has undergone changes in Heaven and Earth turning upside down, and the harvest of farming has greatly exceeded the national 100 Demand for surnames, the surplus grain could not even fit the treasury, the grain bins everywhere were full, and the family of 100 old surnames had to dedicate a house for hoarding grain. As a result, the price of staple foods on the market has been declining year after year, and has been reduced by half in a few years.

Although the output of grain has more than doubled, which makes up for the loss caused by the price reduction, for ordinary self-cultivation farmers, as long as they enter the workshop to work, the monthly income can buy the hard-working half-year-old grain , 2 months of income is more than one year ’s income from farming, and farming seems very uneconomical, plus they are all a small amount of land of about a dozen acres, it is not cost-effective to use advanced machinery, and use cattle It’s hard work, and the more you lose, the more you lose.

For this reason, many farmers went to work in the workshops in Beijing when they were angry. At the beginning, they could also take care of the land in their homes. Each year they received some food for self-sufficiency. However, the workshop system became stricter and more standardized. The busy season of spring farming and autumn harvest will not take vacations. If you forcibly ask for leave, you will be deducted wages, and the wages deducted are more than the harvest of ten acres of land. The old and weak women and children are handed over to the family, but there is no main labor. How can the old and weak women and children alone support a dozen acres of self-cultivated fields, simply cannot be busy, and under 10000 frustrations, they can only sell the extra land. If you lose it, leaving a mu of vegetable land close to your home is almost the same. The women and children of the family are still able to work, and you may be able to leave 2 3 mu of land. No matter how much you are really busy, it makes no sense.

The rich landowners are different. They can easily use 1000 to 10000 acres of land. They can use machines for large-scale cultivation. The cost is greatly reduced, and the profit is still good. Therefore, they are very happy to buy the land of ordinary self-cultivation farmers. Imperial Court has also agreed to buy and sell such land in recent years based on actual conditions.

In addition to buying a lot of land, these landlords are also very keen on exchanging land. The so-called exchanging land is to exchange one acre of land in their own hands with another acre of land. Of course, it can also exchange a few acres of land. It can be exchanged with ordinary self-cultivation farmers or other landlords.

As for why it is necessary to exchange land, it is naturally because the mechanized cultivation of crops requires the land to be concentrated as much as possible. If a few thousand acres of land owned by a landlord are distributed in many places, here is 1000 acres and there is 3 acres, it is difficult to form a scale In addition, it is very troublesome to use the machine. In order to solve this problem, it is necessary to carry out several kinds of land as much as possible, and the land cannot be moved. The only thing that can be done is to exchange land. The land with similar conditions is one Change one mu for one acre, and even a few mu can change one acre if conditions are not good. In short, this is something you want, no one will force anyone to negotiate. !

Through a tedious exchange of land, the land of the landlords around the capital is almost concentrated as much as possible, or in several larger areas, it will not be too scattered, and the small amount of self-cultivated land reserved by farmers is basically concentrated in Together, and not far from the house where you live, so that it is convenient to take care of the dishes, you can better save the physical strength of the ground, so you don’t have to run very far on the ground.

This model is a way for everyone to profit. The resistance to execution is naturally very small, and no confrontational incident has occurred.

More food is good, because the treasury with more food can’t accommodate it. A lot of old 100 surnames and noble families have enough food for about a year, and some of them have hoarded food for at least a month, so that they can’t eat. The 100 surnames are only a few.

After the nobles have more food, some people will stand up to do good deeds, such as going to the beggar gathering place outside the city, or a few large iron pots near the temple, where some porridge is cooked, and the poor and beggar can drink In the last few bowls, for some poor people and beggar who ca n’t survive, they can live with these alms, which is very important for stabilizing the Great Tang.

The increase in grain is increasing. After all the grain bins are full, Imperial Court has to mobilize part of the manpower and material resources to build a new large grain bin. After all, the grain storage is only the more the better, no empire will abandon it I have too much food.

Before the completion of the construction of the new granary, much of the surplus grain can only be temporarily piled up in some open spaces. The protection is very rudimentary. Once there is excessive heavy rain, it will definitely be finished.

In order to avoid losses, and because there is indeed too much food, there are more and more processed products related to food. For example, there are more and more workshops for wine making. At this moment when food is sufficient and cheap, wine making The cost has become very low, and the 100 old people have a rigid demand for drinking, so the wine industry is bound to grow, all over the world are using a lot of grain to brew wine, and the streets can smell the intoxicating wine everywhere .

However, even large-scale brewing still cannot consume all the surplus grain, and there are still a lot of grains that cannot be stored in the storage. Even, because the Imperial Court grain storage is full, it cannot continue to purchase grains of 100 surnames, resulting in many 100 surnames Grain accumulation at home often occupies a whole house, and even may occupy multiple houses, and some large grain households, because they did not anticipate this situation in advance, caused their own grain harvested on several thousand acres of land had to Most of them are piled in the yard, and the rain and snow are ruthless. As long as they are encountered once, all the hard-grown food will be finished.

When the warehouse was full for the first time, there was quite a lot of such losses. Later, large grain growers also learned to be smart, and they all built their own grain warehouses in order to avoid temporary damage to the grain that could not be sold by rain and snow. Economic losses.

In the most recent year, most large grain growers have already owned their own granaries, which allows them to be less anxious when selling grain, or take it slowly, or choose a time when the grain price is slightly better Selling, even, some big grain growers can’t sell the food they have in a year.

The advanced planting technology of Great Tang, not at all, spread to neighboring countries so quickly. Therefore, in the vicinity of Great Tang, in fact, there is still a little food shortage, and the excess food of Great Tang can be sold to these small countries. It ’s just that long-distance transportation requires freight. If the cost of Great Tang ’s cheap food is drastically increased to its destination, then it does n’t make much sense. Therefore, only the regional merchants who are not too far away from the Great Tang, or are connected by rail Only choose to buy food from Great Tang, otherwise, they will not buy, even if many people starve to death in their own country, as a businessman, they will not buy or sell at a loss. This is the essence of the businessman.

Spring plowing is coming soon, and the land in Guanzhong at this time has already practiced 2 maturing a year, that is to say, the wheat of the second season has been popularized, the varieties planted in spring can be harvested in autumn, and the wheat planted in autumn It can be harvested in the spring of next year. In this way, we can get twice the grain harvest. Together with the popularization of fertilizers and water conservancy, this output will be greater. In addition, the popularity of high-yield crops will be popularized. The grain output of 2 years is a matter of ease. Even, it is not difficult to obtain the output of the previous ten years a year, so it is strange that the granary is not full.

Because many crops cannot survive in winter, only cold-tolerant wheat can resist the bitter cold. Therefore, the crops planted after the autumn harvest can only be winter wheat, and in the spring of the following year, these winter wheats can be harvested. The land is deeply cultivated, and then it is possible to plant food crops in spring. As for what is planted, it is the landowners who grow the grain and the farmers themselves. Spring wheat, corn, sweet potatoes, potatoes, highland barley, millet, millet, rice and other crops are all acceptable. Among these crops, the production of sweet potatoes and corn is relatively high, but the Great Tang is not short of food at this moment, so the cultivation of this crop is not required in the Imperial Court, everyone can choose freely.

However, there will still be many people who choose sweet potatoes, because sweet potatoes contain more starchy substances, after extraction, they can be made into very delicious noodles, and crystal clear and near-transparent jelly, these all are very popular Ingredients, and there will be a market if there is demand. Since the old 100 people like to eat vermicelli and jelly, there will naturally be more people planting sweet potatoes, especially self-cultivators. The largest number of people grow sweet potatoes because other crops need to spend more It takes energy to take care of it, and as the family ’s main labor force goes to work in the workshop to make money, there is too little labor at home, and it is a little difficult to manage crops, and sweet potatoes do not need to spend too much energy to take care of it. Picking sweet potato leaves and cooking them anytime, anywhere can be said to be more than one thing, so naturally it has been favored by many self-cultivation farmers.

Therefore, as long as it is one or two months after spring cultivation, walking on the field ridges outside the capital, you can definitely see large pieces of sweet potato seedlings. The green one, not to mention how spectacular.

At this moment, the fields outside the capital are all winter wheat that has been yellowed. These winter wheats are ripe and ready for harvesting. After harvesting, the straw is burned, and then you can plant crops such as sweet potatoes, but Before planting sweet potatoes, the originally flat land needs to be cultivated into a ravine to form a close up of each and everyone, because the sweet potato vines need to be planted on the close up, so that it is highly possible to obtain high yields. If you do n’t do this, sweet potatoes are very good If it is difficult to achieve high yield, if it is flooded, it will result in a total failure.

And it ’s very hard to dig the sweet potato long by manpower, and it does n’t matter if a few acres of land fall, it is certainly not realistic if a few thousand acres of land are tossed like this, and Great Tang has already developed a machine that can directly dig it up Afterwards, 1000 to 3 rounds have been formed, which is extremely convenient and fast. When the harvest is completed, there are also special tools that can easily harvest the sweet potatoes. Then, it is very easy to push the sweet potato long, so that It is convenient for the next winter wheat planting.

In short, after having the machine, not only can large-scale farming be easier and cheaper, but also can quickly change the crops planted, like sweet potatoes and wheat, require different terrain, and the machine can quickly change the terrain, In order to meet this different planting needs.

Spring harvesting and spring tillage are about to begin, the relevant Imperial Court section, and the large farming households are all busy. They must act as soon as possible to harvest all winter wheat when the weather is fine, otherwise, once they encounter spring rain When it is continuous, it is very bad. Only when the wheat is dry on a sunny day, the harvest can be carried out. If the wheat is harvested when it rains, the harvested wheat must be moldy, and the moldy wheat cannot be eaten. It is diarrhea and even life-threatening when eaten. Therefore, all large grain growers must catch up before the spring rain comes, and then quickly plant the next season’s grain.

Whether it is harvesting or farming, it is inseparable from manpower. Although large households can rent the machine, the machine can only complete most of the work, and there are some details that the machine ca n’t complete, which can only be done by hand. Labor protection items are required for manual work. For example, gloves are a very practical work protector, which can protect the hands of the working worker as much as possible, avoid the injury of the worker’s palm, and avoid affecting the efficiency of the work of the worker.
