Dressed as a family of cannon fodder, the villain brother is busy opening up wasteland

So much land can be plowed by manpower alone. How long will it take to plow it?

While standing next to the ground, Wen Xiuyi regretted it. Was it too late for him to go to the dock now?

"Why are you still standing there? Work." Old man Wen kicked Wen Xiuyi from the side, hating that iron could not turn into steel.

He knew that this boss was unreliable.

Wen Xiuyi twitched the corner of his mouth and pointed to more than ten acres of land: "Dad, how long will it take for us to plow it?"

Old Man Wen knocked his hoe on the ground and replied: "With so many people in our family, we can finish the work in a few days."

Wen Xiuyi: "..." After reading so many pages, that person will be useless?

What he didn't know was that his ancestors had been here for so many years, relying on a pair of hard-working hands.

Wen Xiuyi still didn't give up and asked, "Isn't there any way to save trouble and effort?"

Old Man Wen paused, raised his head and looked him up and down, and said, "You don't want to be lazy, do you?"

"No, no, absolutely not." Wen Xiuyi quickly denied it and said, "I just feel that with so much land, how long will it take for us to turn it over with hoe after hoe?"

Old Man Wen didn't think anything of it. He just felt that he had protected his eldest son very well since he was a child, so he patiently explained: "This is how our ancestors have come here for generations. Hurry up and get to work. Your mother will see you soon." You have to be scolded again.”

Luo Shi was indeed Wen Xiuyi's nemesis. As soon as Old Man Wen said that Luo Shi Wen Xiuyi was honest, he went to the ground with a hoe and accepted his fate.

It is said that the whole family came, but in fact the only labor force was old man Wen, Luo Shi, his three brothers and two sisters-in-law. Among the younger generation, only 12-year-old Wen Jin and [-]-year-old Wen Fa followed. As for the girls, It's all easy work.

They shook the wheat roots they dug out from the soil and used a small hoe to break up the large clods of soil.

As for Datou and Wenying, they were just running around, saying they were working rather than just having fun.

Although the original body was quite strong and he had developed some arm strength at the dock during this period, after plowing a quarter of an acre of land, Wen Xiuyi still felt that he couldn't bear it anymore.

If he digs any further, his arm will become useless.

At this moment, Professor Wen missed the mechanical farm tools of later generations, how great they were in saving time, effort and labor.

The old couple watched his every move. They originally thought that Wen Xiuyi would be unable to bear it for a few meters at most, but they didn't expect that they would do so much. This was already a big problem for Wen Xiuyi, who had never been to the ground before. It's not easy anymore.

"Brother, take a break when you are tired. There are me and the third child here." Wen Xiuzhu smiled naively at Wen Xiuyi like he did when he was a child, let him sit next to him and rested, and took his place to continue. .

This family was accustomed to letting him go. Wen Xiuyi looked at his father, mother, brother and younger siblings. Even the two children were working so hard that he couldn't sit still, so he gritted his teeth and continued to do it.

As for the hands?Hey, whose hands?Where did the hand come from?Already numb.

Wen Yao followed him to pick up, turn over, knock and shake.

"Professor Wen? How do you feel? Do you feel the hard work of the working people?" Wen Yao rubbed her waist and wanted to lie down on the spot.

Wen Xiuyi looked at her: "Are you okay?"

"My waist is about to break." Wen Yao was helpless, but they couldn't stop. They had to adapt to this kind of life.

Wen Xiuyi sighed deeply: "Hey, let's do it. I'll look into it later. Relying on manpower like this is not an option."

Wen Yao's eyes lit up and she almost forgot what Professor Wen used to do.

"Dad, what can you do?" Wen Yao was anxious, but the address didn't stop him. Fortunately, there was no one around them, so they wouldn't be overheard.

Wen Xiuyi glared at her and then said: "We all relied on machines to work at that time. Even your grandparents' generation had cattle in every household, as well as those farming tools. It was useless for work like now. It’s so hard.”

Wen Yao threw away the straw in his hand, walked up to him and said, "Just make the original thing."

Wen Xiuyi looked at the others and felt heartbroken when he saw the sweaty faces of his family members. He gritted his teeth and nodded: "We'll think about it when your brother comes back tonight."

"Okay, what are you going to do with the soil here? I can buy fertilizer, but how are you going to use it?" Wen Yao said.

Wen Xiuyi smiled. His daughter and son were born in a good era, so they didn't have to worry about anything. There were all kinds of chemical fertilizers everywhere, so it was normal not to know about these.

He patiently explained to Wen Yao: "Before the advent of high-tech chemical fertilizers, our ancestors had already developed various fertilization methods. There are many ways to do this.

Although every household now only uses manure as fertilizer, or the worst is to burn straw and use plant ash to make fertilizer. Isn’t this all fertilizer?This is also a process of evolution. In fact, there is no need for chemical fertilizers. It is not impossible to produce good fertilizer under current conditions. "

"Do you know how to do it?" Wen Yao asked.

Wen Xiuyi glared at his daughter and smiled: "What does your father do?"

Wen Yao jokingly teased him: "Study? Farmer? Hahahahaha..."

"Stinky girl." Wen Xiuyi glared at her and said, "Okay, let's do it quickly. I know this well. I'll tell your father and others when I go back tonight. I have to try it first to know whether it works."

The father and daughter murmured for a long time without stopping, and they did not stop to rest for a while until they were really tired.

Every time at this time, Datou would come running to deliver water to the two of them with a water bag bigger than his head.

Drinking the water brought by his son, Wen Xiuyi didn't feel tired anymore.

When noon was approaching, Luo Shi called Wenyao away, saying that he would go back to cook with her, but Wenyao knew that grandma felt sorry for her to work.

The two of them went back and made meat and vegetable cakes with the ingredients at home. The family ate the cakes with water on the field, which was quite happy.

The day's work didn't end until the sun went down.

But even so, these people can only manage to organize more than an acre of land.

When he got home, Wen Xiuyi sat down on a chair and really didn't want to move at all.

"Look at how promising you are, you're going to die just to do some work." Luo Shi was disgusted when he saw him like this, but he still turned around and went into the kitchen to boil a lot of hot water, soaked a hot handkerchief and threw it in the paper Xiu Yi asked him to put a hot compress on his hand and arm to avoid pain the next day.

Wen Xiuyi smiled stupidly and applied hot compresses to his hands and arms, and finally felt better.

The dinner was very sumptuous. Wen Yao steamed a large pot of rice, cut two pieces of meat sent by Butcher Zheng, fried shredded pork, cut a plate of braised vegetables, and fried a plate of vegetarian vegetables.

It is absolutely impossible for the Wen family to live like this in the past. Two meat dishes could appear on the same table at the same time?Not even during the Chinese New Year.
