Dressed as the cannon fodder who died prematurely, I will marry the villain in anger

After spring plowing, the people in the four counties of Pingzhou began to perform corvee service.

The government organized serving people to dig ditches, build roads and widen official roads, and build city walls...

The current large-scale infrastructure projects in Pingzhou are tentatively divided into these three projects.

In fact, these three items are quite labor-intensive, but they are not allowed to be done. They can only be carried out one by one. The first corvee arrangement is to clean the ditches and ditches.

Cleaning the ditches, this time includes clearing the silt at the bottom of the ditch, eradicating weeds on both sides of the ditch, etc. The purpose is to widen and deepen the original ditch to facilitate water diversion and drainage.

In this way, it can not only facilitate the irrigation of farmland, but also be an effective means to prevent flood disasters.

Before each ditch is cleaned, the water inlet will be blocked upstream. When the water in the ditch is almost gone, manpower will be organized to clean it.

Once the water in the ditch dries up, they can still pick up many fish, large and small.

These fish will be sent to the temporary kitchen and processed uniformly.These fish are either boiled with tofu to make fish soup or fried with some salt until they are charred and dry. When they have dinner, each person gets a bowl of fish soup or a spoonful of dried fish.

This is the time that all men who come to serve are most looking forward to, and it will make them feel very happy.

Wu Qi is a native of Xiangping and an outstanding student of Liaodong Academy.

Last year, a large number of craftsmen were mobilized for the Panhuo Kang in the three counties of Pingzhou. The promotion and completion of this matter required the guidance and assistance of many officials.At that time, Liaodong County was short of manpower at the grassroots level, so some outstanding students from Liaodong Academy were recruited to help.

He also went and was rewarded for his outstanding performance.

This year, the government is still short of manpower to repair ditches and canals.Most of their students from last year were also recruited to help this time.

For example, he is one of the supervisors this time.

Seeing the young men starting to work, Wu Qi hurriedly said, "Pick out the silt from these rivers, ditches, and ponds, and put the silt up together."

Each section of the river and canal has a designated area for them to pile up silt.Later, people will be arranged to dry out the mud.

After throwing down the shovel and dustpan, one-third of the strong men on the shore went down, another third was clearing weeds, and the last third was responsible for transporting silt.

The strong men hummed and laughed while working and said, "This year's work is quite strenuous."

"Didn't the officials say that once these ditches are built and the water is deeper, it will be more convenient to irrigate farmland in the future. In case of a flood, drainage will be faster. So just put in the effort."

"Supervisor Wu, is this mud useful?" the man below asked with a smile.

Wu Qi was helping to lift a dustpan of mud ashore. When he heard the question, he said angrily, "What do you care about? Just do what you are told to do. Why do you ask so many questions?!" In fact, he didn't really understand, anyway. These silts were requested by Mr. Guo, who joined the army in Sicang.

This mud was indeed what Guo Chunsheng had specified.

Lu Songli knew very well that the harvest at this time was not high and the crops were not growing well, which had a lot to do with insufficient fertility.

At this time, there was already a prototype of farmyard manure retting, but it had not yet been fully promoted.Furthermore, the farmyard fertilizer is not enough.

Silt is rich in organic matter. When properly treated, it can be converted into efficient fertilizer, lending nutrients needed by plants. It can also improve soil quality, promote microbial reproduction and improve soil fertility.There is also mulch on the mountain, which contains humus, is rich in organic fertilizer, and is also a soil conditioner.

Lu Songli has informed Guo Chunsheng and others about this, and they were experimenting with it last year, and it can indeed increase the harvest of crops.

The rivers and channels had to be cleaned anyway this year, so Guo Chunsheng simply asked people to collect a large amount of silt.

While the common people were busy with spring plowing and then working hard to perform corvee labor, various workshops originally opened in Liaodong County also sent people to the other three counties in Pingzhou to select suitable addresses to open branch workshops.

In general, Pingzhou has entered a period of balanced development.

Lu Songli is committed to building an internal cycle in Pingzhou's self-system and arming herself.

She was preparing for a rainy day. If Pingzhou was blocked in the future, she could be as self-sufficient as possible.

At this time, branches of the Liaodong Chamber of Commerce were also gradually opened in some places.

And because the goods sold are either high-quality and affordable, or unique.The huge blue ocean market is only occupied by their family.So the business was booming, and he brought back a lot of money and transported it back to Pingzhou to provide blood transfusions to Pingzhou.

The people of Pingzhou are living in the midst of rapid changes, and they are the ones who can feel the changes in Pingzhou the most. Among them, the people of Liaoxi County feel the most obvious.

Liaoxi County, Yixian County, Yushu Village

Aunt Liu and her old sister separated at the first intersection in the village, and they went back to their respective homes.

As soon as she opened the door, she saw her eldest daughter-in-law hanging clothes.

When Mrs. Liu saw her mother-in-law, she immediately said hello, "Mom, are you back from the market?"

Aunt Liu smiled and said, "You came back right after shopping. Did you pick up so many mushrooms today?"

Sister-in-law Liu replied, "Yes, they are all hanging here. I will pick up some more in the afternoon."

Mushrooms, fungus and other mountain products can be exchanged for money after being dried. They can sell them to the grain and oil store of the Liaodong Chamber of Commerce, or wait for people from the Liaodong Chamber of Commerce to come to the village to purchase them collectively.

These mushrooms were all from the government, and they were taken to the mountains to identify them and make sure they were non-toxic and edible.

"Where's your father?"

"Dad, he went to the entrance of the village. Didn't you see him when you came back?" During this time, her husband went to do corvee work, and her brother-in-law went to work in the county.Everyone is busy with their own things.

"Your father has to go to the village entrance several times every day. He is more interested in building a private school in the village than building a house for himself." Aunt Liu muttered.

Sister-in-law Liu smiled, "That's not possible."

A private school is being built at the entrance of the village. This private school was built jointly by Yushu Village and several other villages, and the government promised to provide half of the money.

Because of the good geographical location of their Yushu Village, the location of the private school was chosen at the entrance of their village.

With this matter settled, the village chiefs and prestigious elders of several of their villages held a meeting together and agreed that every household in their villages would contribute money and effort to establish a private school together.

Old people like her father-in-law in the village go to the entrance of the village for a walk every day, lending a hand and helping out.

"Where's your little sister?"

"She's probably a little uncomfortable in the house."

"I'll go in and take a look." Aunt Liu didn't enter the room where she and the old man lived, carrying the basket, but went to the hut next to it.She had been thinking about it for a long time. When she went back to the market, she mainly bought things for her daughter.

"Mother--" Liu Dani was lying in the room with a slight discomfort in her stomach. When she saw her mother coming in, she quickly called out.

"Still uncomfortable?"

"A bit."

"I'll make you a bowl of ginger soup later." Aunt Liu said and went to rummage through the basket. "I just went to the grain and oil grocery store of the Liaodong Chamber of Commerce in the town and bought a square of paper. Here, you can use it to pad A pad.”

Liu Dani blushed and took it.

Recently, the paper mill in Liaodong County has produced two kinds of paper, one is yellow-brown side paper.

The side paper is not expensive, costing a penny for a bundle. It is thick and cut into square pieces. It can be used sparingly by a family of three. It can last for a month.She thinks it is much easier to use than side chips.

Another kind of knife paper is of better quality than the side paper, and the color is greener.She heard that this green knife paper was specially developed for women.

Liu Dani turned sideways, took out a thick piece of paper and stuffed it into the menstrual belt.

Aunt Liu couldn't help but mutter, "You have caught up with the good times. We used to stuff plant ash in it. But your aunt said that the plant ash was unclean and unhygienic, so she asked me to buy you green knife paper."

That is to say, after Mr. Lu took office, ordinary people like them had more opportunities to make money. They were willing to spend money like this when they got extra money from time to time.

Liu Dani thought to herself that she liked her life now.
