Chapter 873
Spring goes and autumn comes, and in a blink of an eye, more than half a year has passed.
At the time of the autumn harvest, in many villages under the mountain, a group of laughter and laughter was heard from afar.
For a year, I have been waiting for the autumn harvest, and this time, the harvest is obviously greater than in the past.
"Thanks to those few gentlemen."
"Heicao, is your family also using the fertilizer taught by the gentleman to fertilize the fields?"
"Haha! Aren't you the same?"
Several old men were harvesting in the fields, busy for an afternoon, the sky was getting dark, but everyone's enthusiasm did not diminish.
The good weather in these few days made everyone very happy.
With the sky, the big men also came out of the farmland, gathered on the ridge of the field, looking at the golden wheat ears, even happier.
Those who are close are communicating.
"Haha! Uncle, look at your harvest this year, it should be 30% more than last year."
The big man with dark skin called Heicao wiped the sweat on his body and grinned, looking silly.
But the strength of working was very great.
This also made the old man, who was called Uncle, a little envious. Their family of four worked, not as powerful as the other person alone.
According to the speed of the other person's work, I am afraid that within three days, the hundred acres of fields could all be harvested.
Old Liu's family gave birth to a good son.
But then thinking of the harvest at home this year, he could not help but laugh along with the other person.
"Yes, it's almost 30% more."
At the beginning of this year, the gentleman on the mountain first taught them some medical skills about self-rescue when they were sick. They were stupid and learned for a long time, and only learned a little bit.
But even so, if anyone in the family was rained on and caught a cold, now they don't need to be afraid, afraid that they won't be able to resist.
Go up the mountain, pick a few common herbs, boil a few pots, and drink them while hot. Most people can be cured by medicine, and they don't need to be like before.
For that gentleman, they are all very grateful, because of him, these common people, even if they are sick in the future, are very likely to live.
As for the real serious illness, then it can only be blamed on their own bad luck.
Later, at the time of spring plowing, the gentleman went down the mountain again. This time, the gentleman taught them a new fertilizer technology.
Fertilizer, these old men who farm naturally know, but the fertilizer taught by the gentleman, from production to fertilization, is very detailed, much more cumbersome than before.
Just because it is cumbersome, it will consume more of their energy.
Some people in the village hesitated.
Fortunately, the gentleman never forced them. Among the hundred households in the village, some were willing to learn, and the gentleman also taught them carefully.
And they are the ones who are willing to learn.
The gentleman is also tireless in teaching them, and then a few months passed. Now the autumn harvest has arrived. These families are connected together, and they have all used the fertilizer technology taught by the gentleman.
Now in the fields, the yield per mu is obviously much more than those who are not far away, and the wheat ears are full and heavy.
With his vision, the harvest this year is obviously more than 30% more than in the past.
In the past, the wheat in the fields was only a little over two shi a year. This year, it almost reached three shi. After handing it over to the government, their family of eight can have a good year this year.
The rest of the families are the same, and everyone is laughing very happily.
"Xiao Qi, see it now."
Then the old man looked at another young man. His family's fields were connected to his own. The harvest this year was also good, but a part of it, the harvest looked the same as before. Obviously, it was not used.
The other party only used a part.
Hearing the old uncle's words, Xiao Qi's face rarely showed shame, and in the shame, there was a bit of heartache.
His family has a full two hundred acres, but the real use of new fertilizer is only thirty acres.
If all two hundred acres were used with new fertilizer during the spring plowing this year, then wouldn't their family's surplus grain be more this year?
Perhaps by the end of the year, they could make one or two new clothes for their younger brothers and sisters.
Thinking of this, Xiao Qi blamed himself even more.
It seems that he saw Xiao Qi's thoughts, but the old uncle said: "Don't blame yourself, you can't catch up this year, but at least you planted thirty acres, and the income is not small. Work harder next year."
"Your family has two hundred acres of fields, and there are thirty acres of superior fertile land. In the future, when you use new fertilizer, the days will definitely be better."
Among the families, Xiao Qi's family is the best, because his father is a Shangzao, although it is a very low title, it let the family have an extra hundred acres of land.
Two hundred acres of fields, even if handed over to the government, the remaining is enough for their family of six to live very well.
"Old Uncle! It's Da Niu and their family."
Just when the old Su was still comforting Xiao Qi, Heicao pointed to the left and saw a few big men walking towards them.
These big men looked a bit twisted, not refreshing at all.
"Uncle," a few people slowly walked to the old uncle's side, lowered their heads, and greeted.
Seeing these people, the old uncle did not show any good color on his face. He, the old uncle, has lived in Shangze Li of Chunze Township for more than fifty years.
What are these people doing? How could he not be clear?
Shangze Li has more than eighty households, and it is considered an upper village among the ten miles of Chunze Township.
In the village, he is not the village head, but even if it is the village head, he will give him a few points of face.
Before, the gentleman taught them fertilizer technology. In the village, many people did not want to believe it, but he always believed in the gentleman on the mountain.
So he pulled a few neighboring households to believe in the gentleman and learn the new fertilizer technology.
The few people who came have some relationship with him, which can be considered his nephews.
It is a pity that these families did not believe it at all and did not want to learn. They felt that they had been farming for so many years.
Some people felt that it was troublesome and laborious.
So in their Shangze Li, only eight households followed the gentleman to learn the new fertilizer technology.
"Humph!"
Looking at these people, the old uncle snorted coldly. These people are considered his relatives. Outsiders like Xiao Qi and the others are willing to believe him, the old uncle.
As a result, his own nephews did not believe it and said outside that he was old and confused.
"What are you doing here?"
"I, this old and confused person, cannot be your uncle. If you get closer, you will be infected and confused together."
As soon as the old uncle said this, several big men showed shameful expressions on their faces. The leading big man opened his mouth slightly, wanting to say something, but now he did not know what to say.
After all, they are all common people in the village, and they are usually honest and honest. At most, when they are in a hurry, they say a few unpleasant words.
Now the old uncle's sarcasm made the honest people not know how to respond.
They could only lower their heads.
"Humph!"
Seeing the bear-like appearance of these people, the old uncle's face gradually eased.
