The Reborn Lady is Farming
Chapter 230: ideal
The yield of corn per mu was quickly calculated to be 658 catties, which was only 138 catties higher than the inferior land planted by the Mu family in the spring. Not only Qi Xiuyuan and Qi Haoran, but also Mu Yangling were not too concerned about it. satisfy.
But the rain in the second season could not keep up, and it was only watered once, and the sun was far less than the first season, so it was understandable.
The corn produced by was all collected by Qi Xiuyuan into the warehouse in Xiying, and the two warehouses were completely filled.
Of course, all of these corns can’t be used as seeds, they have to be screened again, and how much to bring back to Lin’an Mansion for the servants, this matter has to be discussed.
Qin Xiang once wrote a secret letter to the inner servant, hoping that he could bring all the seeds back, but he couldn't, and he had to bring most of them. Unfortunately, the letter was intercepted by Qi Haoran before it reached the inner servant, and then it arrived at Qi Xiuyuan. before the case.
Qi Haoran has a perfect explanation for this, "I'm investigating the fine works left over. The man was riding a high horse, and he wasn't from the post station or the court. I thought he was a fine work. Who knew he was from Qin Xiang?"
Qi Xiuyuan picked up the envelope and looked at it. Seeing that the envelope had been opened, his younger brother had obviously read the letter, so he asked, "Where's that person?"
"He wanted to escape, but he fell off his horse and died."
Qi Xiuyuan looked up at him, put down the letter, and said: "Since he is not good at riding, then forget it, you go back and take care of the roads in Mingshui County, don't let those meticulous things slip through the net, as for the servant here. , I'll go and explain to him."
Qi Haoran said unconvinced: "Brother, Qin Fang's management is too broad. He wants to have all of our seeds."
Qi Xiuyuan snorted coldly and said, "So his life may not be long, you go back, the seeds have been screened out, the Shen family will come to get one-third of them in a few days, you pay attention, don't let the servant know about it."
"Brother, how much do you want to give to the servant?"
"The remaining half," Qi Xiuyuan said, "The south of the Yangtze River is not too small, but it is a land of fish and rice, water conservancy is convenient, there is really no need to grow corn, but it is in the area of Sichuan and Guizhou, this year is not very smooth, I don't know the imperial court. How much is willing to share with them, we will definitely share some of the remaining half. If nothing else, we can't leave it out in Xingyuan Mansion. Dai Wei and Lu Ji have already called someone to find them, so I have to leave some for them. , and Hanzhong Mansion, in addition to the share of the military households, we must also leak some of the common people..." Qi Xiuyuan had planned in his heart that even if there was a drought next year, he would not be able to let people plant all the land. Corn, just to protect the harvest.
So wheat and rice have to be planted. Most of the upper and middle lands have to be used to grow these, and the rest are used to grow corn and the like.
Qi Haoran calculated in his heart and said, "Brother, I want to raise a horse."
"Aren't you raising your foal now?"
"No, I want to raise a large number of horses," Qi Haoran looked at him seriously and said, "Brother, the Hu people's cavalry is very powerful. After we attacked the city before, if the cavalry can keep up, they will not let their chief escape. If you want to take back your homeland, you must practice cavalry. The Hanzhong mansion was previously grazing by the powerful and powerful of the Jin Kingdom. Although a lot of good land was wasted, it also raised a lot of pasture."
Qi Xiuyuan frowned and looked at him, "This destroys people's livelihood..."
"Brother, I don't want to occupy the people's farmland to raise horses, but I want you to give me a piece of land to raise horses. There are horse farms in Jingzhao Mansion and Pingyang Mansion. Why can't we build one in Hanzhong Mansion?"
Qi Xiuyuan said: "The horse farms are all built by the state and governed by the imperial court. What do you think of opening a horse farm in Hanzhong Mansion?"
"The caravans in Fenzhou are not owned by the state. If the court wants to buy horses, they have to secretly do business with them. Brother, we have to ask for the horses raised by the court. If you ask for ten horses, he will give you one. Why don't we raise our own, we can build a cavalry in less than five years..." Qi Haoran's eyes lit up and said: "Hanzhong Mansion and Jingzhao Mansion are not far away, as long as there are horses, we can run back and forth, and even detour Huazhou. Attacking its east side, there is a great possibility of taking back Jingzhao Mansion under the attack of both sides."
Qi Xiuyuan's hand on his leg could not help but bend slightly, his fingers tapped his thigh, and after a while he said, "Are you rich?"
Qi Haoran raised his head halfway and said proudly, "As long as the eldest brother agrees, I can get the money."
Qi Xiuyuan chuckled lightly, thought about it and waved his hand: "Okay, while the current prefect of Hanzhong has not yet assumed office, I will first enclose a piece of land for you, which was originally used by a powerful person in Jin Guo to race horses, right in Hanzhong. Thirty miles northwest of the mansion, at the foot of Xiangshan Mountain, there are about 300 acres, and out of Xiangshan is a grassland, but there is also danger there. There are no barriers for people from Jin Kingdom and Xixia Kingdom to enter and exit there. Whether you can keep your horse is up to you. ."
Qi Haoran's eyes lit up, and Qi Xiuyuan said again: "I know that you and Zijin plan to use the money from the business to help eldest brother support the army, but you should keep the money yourself, now that you are grown up, you must have your own private room. Money, big brother has his own way here."
Qi Xiuyuan didn't say it before because he was glad that these two little ones were considerate and would share his worries, but seeing that their own affairs were all messed up, and there were a lot of things they wanted to do, they didn't plan to tease them.
Some things are just fine. The little money they got from the two little ones is not enough for the army to stick between their teeth. He raises seven or eight thousand soldiers, not seven or eight thousand. No pants left.
Qi Haoran scratched his head, smiled, turned to look for Fan Zijin, Fan Zijin slapped his wrists, "Cousin why didn't you tell me earlier? I've already notified Manager Chen that he's back, if he said two days earlier, I'd let him Put all the money into goods, and you don't have to carry the money back."
Qi Haoran's eyes lit up, "Then ask him to bring it back. I'm going to buy a foal."
Fan Zijin glared at him, "Don't you already have a horse?"
"I plan to build a horse farm to raise horses," Qi Haoran told him about his plan, "I have already asked Baili to find someone who can raise horses for me, and then I will take them to build fortifications and houses at the foot of Xiangshan Mountain. , the horses are raised there, it used to be the place where the nobles of the Jin Kingdom ran horses, and even the grass for planting is ready-made, and there are many houses, which saves a lot of trouble."
Fan Zijin patted his head and asked, "What are you kidding? Do you know how much a horse costs? How many can we afford? And don't we have to spend money on hay? We are poor now. "
Qi Haoran looked at him with wide eyes, Fan Zijin was stared at by his round eyes, a little unbearable, sat on the chair and said, "You can raise a horse, but not this year, nor next year, you have to give me time, The year after that, when I earn enough money, I will buy you hundreds of horses at once, with enough forage, what do you think?"
Qi Haoran pinched his fingers, shook his head and said, "No, it's been too long. After you buy a pony, I'll have to raise it for two or three years before I can use it, and I have to practice cavalry. How much time wasted?"
"The haste is not enough."
"I know that time is life, and I want to take back my homeland in my lifetime."
Fan Zijin glared at him, "Why do I think you've been possessed by General Yuan? All my thoughts are on recovering your homeland."
"General Yuan is someone I admire."
