Chapter 1072 New Actions in the Village ([-])
"What other instructions does the old general have?" Qi Ke said one thing after another, and Qi Ke intuitively felt that what was to be said later was the key point.

"It's related to the cultivated land in the village." Lao Jiuye and Lu Chen suddenly became serious, which made Qi Ke sit up straight.

"What happened to the cultivated land?"

"Isn't it because you are very good at farming? No matter what we do, we can't keep up with the output of your piece of land. The old general asked our village to combine all the cultivated land and let you arrange what to cultivate. Try to see if you can increase the grain production. If it is useful, you will be rewarded. "

"What's the reward?" Qi Ke put his hands on the table, and tapped his fingers on the table in turn, looking like a money fan who can do everything as long as the money is in place, and at the same time waiting for a bargain.

"Hey, how do you know what the reward is now?"

"That won't work. The old general said that it's easy. We are the ones who do the work. The cultivated land is divided into households. At this time, it is said that the cultivated land of the whole village will be collected and arranged by me. Even if I don't mind the trouble, the whole village agrees." ?"

"The whole village agrees."

"Everyone agrees."

Old Ninth Master and Lu Chen spoke in unison.

"Huh?!" Qi Ke was really confused now.

"After the old general made this suggestion, we discussed it with the whole village, and everyone agreed."

"...Eh?!" Qi Ke raised his eyebrows, three forehead lines frowned on his forehead, and finally came to his senses, "That means this matter has been decided by the whole village, and it's just waiting for me?"

"Hey, that's right." The two village chiefs nodded in unison, and their movements were in unison.

"Each household has no opinion? It's so easy to talk? If it's really like this, the irrigation ditches will have to be repaired first, and some of the fields that belonged to them will be taken up. The villagers have no objections? And is there a time limit for this kind of unified farming? Don’t I invest a lot of money this year to repair the ditch and tell me next year that I quit this job and return the fields to each family. What about the ditch? It’s demolished again? No waste of money? If there is unified farming, each family’s wages How do you count?"

"Don't worry, the whole village has discussed these things. If you really want to do this, you really have to hurry up and repair the ditches. This is a big money-consuming matter. It can't be repaired this year and demolished next year. The cost of repairing the ditches has not been earned back. The old general also hoped that Siliu Village would do a good job when he gave this suggestion, so the period of unified farming is tentatively set at ten years."

"Ten years? I have the final say on what to plant in the whole village's farmland during these ten years? No one will jump out and sing against me?"

"Will you give people a chance to play against you?" Old Ninth Master smiled slyly.

"That can't be."

The unified cultivation was started by the old general, and the whole village discussed it. Qi Ke just got a notice and was about to take office and make arrangements quickly. In fact, there was no possibility of change, and Qi Ke was not hypocritical.

"It's not enough for me to have the final say on the farmland alone. There are many other things involved in farming, such as whether it counts when I say how to fertilize and use fertilizer?"

"It's up to you. As long as the food production can increase, the whole village will be at your disposal. You point east and never go west. Our military households are very disciplined. Don't worry, we will never hold you back." Lu Chen was very pleased. He slapped his thigh boldly.

"Alright then, let's go to Junyi to choose a yard in the afternoon, go to the field tomorrow, and re-measure the cultivated land in the whole village, and then I will ask the foreman of the construction company to come and have a look on the spot, and list all the things that can be used. , Make a bill of materials."

"It's not cheap to repair ditches and waterwheels. Is there any money in the village account?" Old Ninth Master asked a little nervously.

"No, only the living money of a few hundred taels of silver that is turned over every day. The 1000 taels before was remanded in the cotton account, and there was no way to withdraw the principal with interest. Now the business is stuck. A wealthy textile merchant Still waiting and watching, as long as they end, the money will come back." Qi Ke told the truth frankly.
