Datang Live Room

Today is the first day to invite the people of Kuoding County to farm their own land.

In every household, not only young men came, but also many women and children came.

Because Yan Kai told everyone that work points are calculated as work points.

Young and strong men work three work points a day, women work two work points a day, and children over ten and sixteen years old, regardless of gender, work one work point.

At the end of each month, everyone is paid according to their work points.

Regardless of whether they are men or women over the age of 1, they will be given one work point if they do not work. At the end of the month, they can still exchange their work points for food.

"This is equivalent to providing a pension for anchors over the age of fifty. This... I mean I'm jealous!"

"Actually, the Tang Dynasty also had a pension system, but those over sixty were exempted from all taxes and servitude. Also, those over eighty would be assigned attendants, which can be understood as caregivers. One would be assigned to eighty, two to ninety, and one to one hundred. Comes with three.”

"Just considering the average life expectancy at that time, not many people could enjoy it."

"Why do I feel that Datang's pension system is no worse than ours now, hahaha."

"The anchor lowered the age to fifty, but you didn't look at the calculation just now. In the entire Kuoding County, there are only thirty-six people over this age."

The average life span in the Tang Dynasty was 50-60 years, but that took into account the prosperous Tang Dynasty.

In the early Tang Dynasty, there was a war that swept across the country, and there were really not many elderly people in the entire county.

Yan Kai asked Zheng Zhixun to divide everyone into teams and groups.

A total of two thousand people came, one hundred people in a team, led by the county's original yamen and later guards of the Zheng family and Zhou family.

Because they basically know numbers.

The hundred people were divided into ten teams, and each team was filled with young men.

Of the twenty teams, Yan Kai only left one team to plow the land, while the others were sent to dig holes and canals.

The pits are dug for fertilization.

Canals were naturally dug for irrigation.

One side was led by Zheng Zhixun, and the other was led by Zhou Tong.

The remaining one hundred people look at me and I look at you.

I just heard that they are required to plow the land, but there are only a hundred of them plowing these tens of thousands of acres. How long will this plowing last?

Then I saw Li Dazui and several craftsmen from Yan Kai's family, including Yan Xiaoer, leading the cows out.

"Cattle!"

"So many cows!"

The people below all shouted in surprise.

There are still people in the live broadcast room who don’t understand.

“What’s so surprising about seeing a few cows in ancient times?”

"Let's put it this way, when they see these cows, it's almost like the people in our country saw tractors in the [-]s."

This was true. Only when Tang Ping came to Kuoding County did he realize that not a single family in Kuoding County had a cow.

Some of them have a donkey at home like their uncle, so they are considered to be doing well here.

When they came from Yangping Town, except for three horse-drawn carriages, the others were all ox-carts.

Zheng Zhixun went to Dengzhou last time and bought a few more cows, and now he has more than [-] cows.

Yan Kai distributed the oxen to these people, and there were about three people each. One led the oxen in front, one held the new curved shaft plow behind, and the other finally gave some big clods of soil to the people. Crush.

With these oxen, one cow could plow more than six acres a day, because Tang Mu was smaller than modern Mu.

In this case, if you plow 200 acres of land a day and start planting spring wheat a month later, you can plow 6000 acres.

These are the experimental fields prepared by Yan Kai.

He wanted to see whether a farmer could grow more food through intensive cultivation, or whether the ordinary people could grow more food in the past.

As for the other land, there were not so many cattle, so the people who dug ditches and pits could only dig over it casually after digging.

These one hundred people held the plow in an obedient manner and were dumbfounded as they looked at the deep furrows plowed on the ground by the oxen.

This plow is much easier to use than the one they used before.

After all, this kind of plow is almost the version used by the Qing Dynasty.

To put it simply, Datang's straight-shaft plow is at most a fruit 4th generation mobile phone.

The one Yan Kai brought out has already been updated and iterated to the level of 12promax.

There is actually a double-shared plow after liberation, but that kind of plow has obvious advantages and disadvantages, and it is not so practical here.

A few people even cheered while plowing the fields.

In their minds, the appearance of every new and convenient farm tool means that everyone can harvest more food during harvest.

"We can't do this, right!" Yan Kai shouted at the side: "How about we all compete?"

"From now on, the three groups that plow the most fields every day can get three more work points, and the 3th group can get two more work points."

"What do you think?"

How about it? What else? He must have worked harder.

Every extra work point can be exchanged for more food at the end of the month. These days, who else despises their family for having too much food?

When Yan Kai first arrived, he didn't know whether these people were diligent or lazy.

The rent they gave for renting the land plus the remuneration for the work was just enough to ensure a family's food and clothing.

Then add some competition mechanisms so that these people can work hard.

No way, Yan Kai also visited some places when he was an outdoor anchor.

Some people in some places are just lazy, really lazy!

Anyway, as long as I don't starve to death, I will never do anything more.

Yan Kai did not do this to exploit these people. In the end, he would slowly invest the output in the fields into the construction of the entire Kuoding County in a planned way.

He just hopes that these people can see hope in their labor.

You can work with him for a better life.

Rather than being the only one waving flags and shouting at the time, these people will just work like foreigners every day. Then isn't my work in vain?

Besides, if you play a World of Warcraft raid version, the player who does the most damage and heals the most will get extra rewards!

It is even more impossible to implement completely equalized management here.

Not only does Plow have such a reward mechanism, but other teams also have this.

Each team has 20 teams, and the best 6 teams each day can get some extra work points.

You may not be able to tell in a day or two.

But by the end of the month, some families who work hard will have significantly more work points than others.

The things he prepared for these people in exchange for work points were not just corn and wheat, but also unexpected good things.

Of course, he also told Zheng Zhixun, Zhou Tong and the captains of each team that working more is not reckless, and fixed rest times are still necessary.

It's not like I'm running around to make people die from exhaustion.
