Chapter 93 Hundred acres of fertile land

Although Shen Yunxi and Zheng Guizhen wanted to go hunting and improve their children's food, they had no time because they were reclaiming wasteland every day.

Fortunately, Tian Daniu and the children in the village go fishing every day. Now the most popular food is fish soup and grilled fish.

Although it is not very delicious, it is also a meat dish and no one dislikes it.

The villagers are working hard to reclaim wasteland. No one dares to be lazy. They are worried that the village chief will quit.

Tian Ergou is good at farming. The locals plant 8 pounds of rice seeds per acre, but he thinks the village can open up more fields. He makes the decision. He plants 6 pounds of rice seeds per acre.

This is more sparse and easier to manage in the future, and it has been approved by the village chief.

When people go out early and come back late every day, they are very tired, and so are the old scalpers.

Tian Daniu cuts the tenderest and best grass to feed the old scalpers every day. Sometimes Shen Yunxi secretly breaks a dozen quail eggs to feed the old scalpers.

This can replenish physical strength and prevent the old scalper from becoming too thin due to being too tired.

Although Village Chief Tian and Yang Dacui tried their best to save food, they ran out of food after 12 days. They cultivated a total of 173 acres of land and used up all the rice seeds they bought.

Tian Ergou once worked for the locals when he was fleeing famine in the south, so he knew how to plant terraced fields.

Looking at the more than one hundred acres of land on the hillside, Chief Tamura blushed: "This is our land! This is our land!"

Tian Ergou also choked and nodded: "As long as this land can grow food, we can definitely settle here."

Shen Yunxi was exhausted. He sat on the mountain ridge and looked at the surrounding hillsides and terraced fields. After her calculations, the total was 173 acres.

At first, she thought there would be 150 acres, which was already a lot, but she did not expect that the villagers of the former Lihua Village were so eager to stay.

"Don't get excited, uncle village chief. I think we should allocate these fields to individuals now and let specific people manage them. Otherwise, many people will not listen to the arrangements and will be lazy, and the food will not grow well."

Tian Ergou also thought so and nodded in agreement. "Yes, the villagers in our village are not very technical, but they have many ideas. The land should be divided early, and then weeding, insecticides, and irrigation can be done. You can do it yourself It’s family work. Village chief, you don’t have to worry so much, otherwise you’ll be so angry that you can’t sleep or eat.”

Chief Tian nodded: "Okay, we will divide the land today. Then we will harvest together. Whoever has the highest yield per mu will be rewarded with fifty kilograms of grain. This is good for us. If there is no male labor force in the family, I will divide the land." If there are male laborers in the land under the terraces, we will get a higher share.

Our village has 173 acres of land. There are 103 people in the village, 78 of whom are over 8 years old. Plus three old scalpers, there are 81 adults here. The remaining 22 people under 8 years old are divided into half of the adult population. Field. Well, how much land does this adult want to be divided into? Ergou, can you calculate it?"

Tian Ergou scratched his head and said: "How can I calculate such a complicated situation?"

Village Chief Tian looked at Shen Yunxi and said, "Can you count those from the Youqing family?"

Of course Shen Yunxi knew how to calculate: "Yes, for twenty-two children under the age of eight, each of them will get half of the adult share, which is eleven adults; plus the previous eighty-one, it will be ninety-two." A total of 173 acres. Land, divided by 92 acres, etc., I can’t just rely on words. I have to come up with a formula!”
