The Reborn Wife is Farming

Ma Liu was very happy to see that she brought back so many things, touched the iron plow with her hand, and said: "This is left by your cousin. It has been used for eleven years. I didn't expect this thing to be found again." .”

Ma Liu put the things aside and said: "Since there is an iron plow, let's start digging the soil after we burn all the grass in the field."

Of course Mu Yangling said there was no problem.

The next day, the four of them set out to burn more than 20 mu, and after noon, they went to cut the firebreak again. Seeing this situation, the Hu family was secretly moved. When the Mu family burned all the land, the old man Hu Walking on the edge of the field, looking at Hei Hui who didn't take a step further, he sighed, "This is a good idea."

"Why don't we ask them, if we don't ask carefully, I dare not set fire."

Old man Hu nodded thoughtfully.

But before the Hu family came to ask, Qi Haoran came to find Mu Yangling on horseback, "I heard that you burned all the grass in the field with a torch, which saved a lot of effort."

"You said it lightly. I cut a firebreak for several days. If the fire really goes down, your camp will be burned."

Qi Haoran's eyes lit up, "Then there is a way to burn it. Tell me, so that others can learn from it. Fan Zijin said that the farm tools are not in hand yet, and the spring planting may be delayed. Food and grass will be a problem. If there is a good Fazi, you can't hide it from me."

Mu Yangling's eyes lit up, "Let's go, take me to the field. Since you said so, I'll tell you what's on my mind. But I don't care if it works or not. Believe it or not, it's up to you."

"Okay," Qi Haoran originally only wanted to train soldiers, but when he went back two days ago, he saw that his elder brother was anxious about food and grass, his eyes were turning blue, and he almost got into a fight with several generals in Xingyuan Mansion, plus the importance of food and grass in the art of war He felt that he couldn't relax this part.

Among the farmers, Qi Haoran is most familiar with Mu Yangling, so naturally he consulted with her immediately.

Qi Haoran got on his horse, reached out and pulled Mu Yangling up to sit behind him, and asked, "Where are we going?"

"Go to the east first. My family has 110 mu of land there, which was just burnt out yesterday."

"I know," Qi Haoran said, claiming credit, "That's why I specially rowed it for you."

Mu Yangling twitched the corner of his mouth, "Thank you."

"You're welcome. If there is still land in the future, I will help you choose the best one."

Mu Yangling snorted, "Don't be so kind, our family belongs to the Hu family, the land on the east side of their house is all medium-sized land, and the 40 mu to the south has 30 mu. It is a first-class land, although it is a little sporadic, but the land is fertile, and there are 20 mu of land to the west, which is also a first-class land..."

Qi Haoran tilted his head in confusion, "The Hu family? I don't know you. Are you old with their family?"

"No, I just want to tell you that out of my family's 180 mu of land, there are only 23 mu of high-quality land, and most of the rest is low-grade land that fails to harvest even corn, and a small half is middle-grade land."

Qi Haoran's body stiffened slightly, "Is the ground divided into top, middle and bottom?"

"Yeah," Mu Yangling saw that the tips of his ears were red, so he burst out laughing, poked him in the waist and said, "Okay, it's actually not bad, my family's land is poor, but our family Not so much, so it may not be so much planted, it would be even worse if such land was taken by others.”

Qi Haoran scratched his head, not knowing what to say, he had good intentions, but he didn't seem to do a good job.

When they reached the ground, Mu Yangling pointed to the Mu family's tunnel and said, "Here, these are all burnt out."

Qi Haoran saw the ashes on the ground and nodded, "How many days have you been burning?"

"Eight days, I almost died of exhaustion when cutting the fire path. If you cut it off bit by bit like other people's house and then dig the soil, you will die a hundred and eighty times. So you want people to learn from me, I You must teach, but you must be careful when setting fire. If the fire escape is not done well, it will be difficult to control the fire once it spreads. Qi Haoran, our Mingshui County has many mountains and forests. If you are not careful, it will be a catastrophe, so you have to think clearly gone."

Qi Haoran said seriously: "Don't worry, I know how to do it."

The two rode to the river, Qi Haoran jumped off the horse before picking her up, "What are you doing here? The river has already frozen."

"That's what I really want to tell you. Has it snowed five times this year?"

Qi Haoran didn't count, and looked at Mu Yangling blankly.

Mu Yangling walked to the river and stamped his feet, and said: "Mingshui County is full of mountains and small rivers, but as soon as there is a drought, the river will stop flowing, and there are few people who can store water. Qi Haoran, it is only early winter Well, there may still be heavy snowfall, assuming what I told you about the summer drought is true, then the snow in the spring will melt and the water in the river will skyrocket, and land like this may not be able to be kept."

Mu Yangling stepped on the ground under his feet, and said again: "And after summer, it is the critical growth period of wheat. If there is no water and the river stops flowing at this time, how much grain and grass do you think will be guaranteed for the coming year?"

Qi Haoran's face darkened, "Then what do you say?"

"Fix water conservancy," Mu Yangling saw that he was frowning and was about to persuade him, so he heard him say, "Okay, I'll let them suspend training and spend half a day every day to repair water conservancy."

Mu Yangling was taken aback for a moment, then looked at Qi Haoran in a daze.

Qi Haoran looked up at the endless fields, and sighed melancholy.

Qi Haoran ran back to the camp in a depressed mood, thinking that tomorrow would be a holiday, so he just rode his horse back to the west camp overnight.

He rushed all the way to his eldest brother's study, looking at him with some aggrieved eyes.

Qi Xiuyuan put down the brush and asked, "What's wrong?"

Qi Haoran pursed his lips and said aggrievedly: "Brother, if the barbarians come to commit crimes, will you let the Fifth Battalion go to war?"

"It depends."

"What's the situation?"

Qi Xiuyuan said coldly: "The fifth battalion is a miscellaneous army. Unless the first battalion, the second battalion and the third battalion are mostly killed and injured, the fifth battalion will not go to the battlefield."

Even though he knew this was the result, Qi Haoran still felt very sad when he heard it with his own ears.

Qi Xiuyuan slowed down his expression, and said: "Hao Ran, if you want to take them to the battlefield, you have to train the fifth battalion just like training the fourth battalion."

"What's the difference? When I was in the Fourth Battalion, I just trained them, but now that the military system has changed, everything has changed. Everything in the Fifth Battalion has to be built, and there is almost no time for training." Qi Haoran said irritably.

Qi Xiuyuan's face turned cold, "You can't take it now if you only manage a battalion, what about me? Do you think I just need to train them to fight? Food, weapons, winter clothes, military pay, pensions for soldiers, and even I have to master the cooperation and confrontation in Xingyuan Mansion, if you want to catch up with me or even surpass me, then you have to learn all of these."

Seeing his younger brother bowing his head in frustration, Qi Xiuyuan got up and walked to his side, patted his head, and said, "Sharpening knives is not a mistake for woodcutters. You are already very good at training soldiers, but you are far from being good at training soldiers." Not enough, the elder brother asked you to take over the fifth battalion not only because you are too young to be appointed, but also because he wants you to slowly learn how to be a good general. The fifth battalion, the elder brother will let you do it, no matter you Whatever you do, Big Brother will support you, and Big Brother hopes that one day you will be able to surpass Big Brother."

Qi Haoran's eyes burst into light, and he looked at his eldest brother with bright eyes.

Qi Xiuyuan smiled slightly, and couldn't help but patted his head again.
