Farming through the portable space

After Xiang Yu and the others cleaned themselves up, they ate another simple breakfast. It was still cornmeal porridge. They pulled out the small green vegetables in the yard and fried them, and steamed a steamed egg for Xiaoxiao.

Farmers raise chickens, but there are very few eggs to eat for themselves. Most of them save enough for a basket and sell them for a little money on market days. Xiang Yu also knows that his own family used to be like this, so he decided to Although I have to save eggs to sell for money, I have to save one for steamed eggs every morning, and occasionally I can fry a few for Zhu Youran, and of course I can supplement my own nutrition.

Xiang Yu didn't dare to enter the space during the day, if someone found out, he still didn't know what would happen!Although you can't enter the space, there are still many things to do.

I need to find out in the village, after all, I am an outsider, it is better to say hello to the villagers first;, and then go to the field to see how much wheat is to be harvested?We also need to strengthen and check the tools for harvesting wheat, and deal with the wild vegetables and bamboo shoots that were brought up from the mountain yesterday... There are a lot of things. After doing this calculation, Xiang Yu feels that he wants to chop himself up today. Into several breaks.

Xiang Yu hugged and smiled, Zhu Youran led the way, and said hello to acquaintances [uncles, uncles and nephews.Big brother, sister-in-law] called over and over again, and by the way, I would like to introduce who is in each family and what they do, especially technical talents such as carpenters and blacksmiths. is the best.They laughed and called all the way, and when everyone in the village got to know most of them, and the village also got to know most of them, Xiang Yu and the others finally returned home with a stiff smile on their faces.

"Oh, the people in the village are so enthusiastic!" Xiang Yu couldn't take it anymore. The villagers were very curious about this outsider, especially because he had short hair. The older ones even touched it, and the younger ones joked about it. Are you talking about a monk who escaped?Some aunts even asked if they wanted to introduce a daughter-in-law, so scared that Xiang Yu almost threw away the smile in his hand.

He's still very young, okay? He hasn't graduated from university yet, so what kind of wife are you looking for? Well, people in ancient times got married too early, and I don't know if Youmi has matured. Can a child be born?

Seeing that it was still early, Xiang Yu decided to go to the field first to see how much land there was. He had to arrange the time reasonably. Besides wheat, what else was planted in the field?

Summer is actually a very good season. At least for farmers, not only are there a lot of vegetables and fruits, but also the wheat harvest is exciting enough. A year's hard work has finally paid off.

Zhu Youran went to the land with her parents, so she still knows where her land is.

Xiang Yu followed Zhu leisurely for a circle, only to realize that the cultivated land is not far from the village, just beside the village, the large farmland is full of golden wheat, which can be harvested within ten days at most, and some even The mature ones are earlier and the next day will be almost the same.

In ancient times, productivity was low, and farming could only rely on manpower. Therefore, even if you want to, you don’t have more energy or ability to cultivate more land, but it’s not a lot. After all, if you have a large family, you have to open more land. , because you have to pay taxes every year, Xiang Yu doesn't know what the tax system here is like, and I don't know how much to pay, so go back and ask the village chief

However, when he heard Zhu Youran say that he had grown 30 acres of wheat at home alone, and then planted [-] acre of soybeans, which was mixed with a portion of red beans and mung beans, and there were also [-] acres of rice specially planted. The land is divided to grow vegetables, but Xiang Yu didn't see the five points of land, and Zhu Youran said that they were all planted behind his house.Xiang Yu really didn't pay attention, so I'll have a look when I get home. (In ancient times, a family of five had to plant [-] mu to be barely enough, because the land was not their own, it had to be rented, and it was taxed per person. We feel sorry for the small item, so let’s set it less), Xiang Yu Almost fainted after listening, ten acres?When will the harvest be finished, not to mention that there may be a rush to harvest at that time, because maybe one day there will be heavy rain, it will be miserable, and if it cannot be harvested, it will have to wait for the wheat to germinate again, maybe it will still be that kind of bad It germinates directly on the ears as soon as it falls to the ground...

Xiang Yu was very depressed, dejected, thinking about ten mu, ten mu...

Originally, Xiang Yu planned to go home and pack up yesterday's bamboo shoots and wild vegetables after seeing the land, but now he is not in the mood, not to mention that he has to go to the village chief's house to ask about taxes and so on.

When Xiang Yu and Zhu Youran came to the village chief's house, the village chief was sharpening his sickle there, preparing for the wheat harvest in a few days.Seeing Xiang Yu and the others come in, the village head stood up and let them sit in the house.

Seeing that the village chief was a little surprised, Xiang Yu stood up and said, "Village chief, I would like to ask, how much land in our family is our own and how much is rented? And how much is the tax? I'm very familiar with it, but Xiaoran is not too clear about it."

The village head looked up at him, "Our village is not big here, so we don't have much land. When Xiaoran's parents returned it, they opened up three acres of wasteland and passed it under their own name. The rest were rented and planted. Xiaoran's parents He is a diligent person, so he has a lot of land, ten mu in total, and most of the other villages have five or six mu. The tax is based on the head. You don't have a household registration yet, so it doesn't count. Although Xiaoran's parents have passed away, But this season’s taxes still have to be paid, and next season will not be needed.” The village chief sighed, “As for you, after the wheat harvest is over, I will register your household registration, and then you will be a member of our Qingmu Village, but , Taxes will also have to be paid when the time comes!"

Xiang Yu now understands, it seems that the village head is not bad and saved himself the tax this time.

"The village chief, I think that after harvesting the wheat this time, only the three acres of land will be left, and the rest will not be rented. After all, you have seen the situation at home now. Youran and Xiaoxiao are still young, and I can't afford to rent it alone. I can’t grow so much land, so I can just plant some for myself to eat in the future!” Xiang Yu has his own plan, he has a space now, and the space is so big, he can plant it in the space in the future, not only does not cost money, maybe Just like in the novel, it can be harvested quickly, and then you can live a peaceful life like a landlord. Although the land in the space still has to be planted by yourself, it is also comfortable, after all, you will be yourself after planting it. The belongings are gone, and there is no need to pay taxes to others.

The village chief looked at Xiang Yu and the three of them, thought for a while, and then nodded and agreed, "Okay, after the wheat is harvested, you can plant three acres, and I will take back the other few acres! As for taxes, I will go to you at that time." I can’t tell what the family harvested now! However, a person basically needs to pay the amount of grain for one mu of land, and that’s when the harvest is good,” the village chief told Xiang Yu about it.

Even if Xiang Yu was prepared, he couldn't help but want to scold his mother, the tax is too heavy, almost half of the [-] mu of land has been lost, no wonder he has to plant so much, and if he goes out to rent land, that's not enough. ah!

Alas, it was really not easy for the farmers in ancient times. Most of the hard-earned food went away in a blink of an eye. I was very lucky to be able to eat the rest of the food. No wonder everyone said that the tenant farmers worked hard, really hard work!

It's just that in the future only these three acres of land will be planted, what about the tax?It seems that I still have to find a way to make money, grow some food for self-sufficiency, earn some money to pay taxes, and I will have a good life in the future. Don’t think about anything now and take it easy!

When Xiang Yu got home, he turned around and went to the backyard. He had been busy for the past two days and didn't go to the backyard. He thought it was an empty yard. Before, he wondered why the neighbors lived so far away. Now it seems that it is for growing vegetables. ah!But why didn't I see a lot of people growing vegetables behind their houses when I went to the village just now? It seems that at most, I sprinkled a little in the yard, and it was almost enough for the chickens to eat!

In fact, Xiang Yu doesn't know, not every family here is like this, but because Zhu Youran's house is relatively close to the river, and some are close to the mountains, so they planted directly behind their house, which is convenient for watering and of course picking vegetables. more convenient!

After Xiang Yu arrived in the backyard, he was really happy, and his previous depression was relieved a lot!

I saw two racks of cowpea horns planted in the field, one rack of green beans, two racks of cucumbers, two or three rows of leeks planted on the ground, and then green onions, ginger, garlic, etc. were planted in the entire backyard.
