Daming Town Haiwang

Chapter 1806, Daming’s Spring Plowing 3
The liberated serfs got their own land again. This year is their first year of farming for themselves. Everyone is full of vigor and strength.

"Ula~ Ula!"

Someone shouted loudly, desperately waving the hoe in his hand, turning the soil over.

At this time, the weather here is still a bit cold. The land is still very hard after being frozen in the cold winter, but everyone doesn't care about it, and they don't care. Every family is working hard on their own fields, looking forward to In autumn, you can harvest a lot of food.

"Thuk~chuk~"

At this time, the roar of machines sounded from the farmland not far away, which immediately attracted the attention of Tarasov and the others.

Everyone quickly looked over, and saw a man from Ming Dynasty driving a machine and walking back and forth between the fields. With the movement of the machine, the land behind him was plowed out, and a large amount of rotten soil could be seen even in the deep soil layer. The offspring, white eggs and worms attract a flock of hungry birds to follow.

"What is this?"

"Turn the ground too fast?"

Tarasov and the others looked straight.

Their farming methods have always been very primitive, using hoes or cattle and horses to plow the land, but serfs do not have cattle and horses, so they can only plow the land with hoes.

Farming the land is very hard work, no different from the farmers of the Ming Dynasty in the past, they are all very tiring and hardworking, and most of the harvested food is often handed over to the nobles or landlords.

This is the first time I saw a cultivating machine. With the roar of the machine, the land has been plowed by the machine once. The speed is very fast. All of them were deeply shocked by such an efficient machine. .

Driven by curiosity, Tarasov and a few bolder villagers walked over to take a look.

After getting closer, it became clearer that the person sitting inside was Wu Yan, the new owner of the surrounding land. Except for the land of these serfs, the surrounding land basically belonged to the Ming soldier in front of him. up.

"have you eaten?"

Wu Yan, who was driving a cultivator, came over curiously to see his plowing land, stopped the machine, and greeted them with a smile.

"Eat, eat~"

Tarasov replied in broken Daming dialect, he felt that although this way of greeting of Daming people was a bit strange, it was indeed very close to life, people only had the heart to think about other things when they were full.

"My lord, what is this?"

Tarasov said in broken Daming language.

In order to consolidate the rule and control of Heitu Province, the Ming Empire not only stationed more than 20 troops here, but also organized a large number of immigrants to Heitu Province.

At the same time, for these natives in the Black Earth Province, the Ming Empire used the consistent policy of Damingization and Sinicization, using land, grain, cloth, etc. as incentives.

Encourage them to change their Chinese surnames, take Chinese names, and learn the language and characters of the Ming Dynasty. For this reason, they have specially trained more than 1 translators to teach these local Slavs the language and characters of the Ming Dynasty and the glory of the Ming Empire. History, and there is no such thing as historical friendship between Ming and Slavs, but it is said bluntly.

Among them, Zhu Houzhao made the greatest contribution. He called all the way and found a bunch of beautiful Slavs. Among them were the two daughters of the Grand Duke of Ryazan and the daughter left by the Grand Duke of Moscow, and they are all pregnant now. .

So in the publicity here, it is also to promote that the people of Ming Dynasty are related to them, and even the crown prince of Ming Dynasty has married with their grand duke and daughter, and has a child.

The Ming people came here not to oppress them, but to liberate them from serfs to free people.

After finishing this set of theories, the remaining nobles and the like naturally don't believe it at all, but for the serfs at the bottom, they completely believe it.

In the past, they were serfs and had no land or property of their own. They even belonged to nobles. As long as the nobles liked their wives and daughters, they could take them away at any time, and they could even give them to them as livestock like cattle and sheep. sell.

They live the poorest life and work hard, but they have no property of their own, and they can't even eat.

Since the arrival of the Ming people, their life has become easier.

Not only was he free and protected, but he also had his own land and property. The people of Ming Dynasty even brought them food in winter.

They fully believed that the Ming people really came to rescue them, rescued them from the serfs, and gave them freedom and land.

As for anything else, does that matter?
Doesn't matter at all?
The nobles were almost killed, does this concern them?

No, these serfs can only clap their hands and applaud. The original nobles didn't have a good thing, they were all cannibals. Tarasov and his serfs hated those nobles.

As for what country, nation, etc., it doesn't matter, because they have never had any sense of belonging. What does the rise and fall of the Principality of Moscow have to do with them?
It doesn't matter, those nobles' affairs, anyway, they are just serfs like cattle and sheep, and they are just the private property of the nobles.

But now, everything here has something to do with them, because they are free, no longer serfs, own their own land and property, and their families are protected and respected.

So they support the people of Ming Dynasty, they support the rule of the Ming Empire here, their lives are much better than before, and the most important thing is that they are full of hope and longing for the future.

Tarasov and the others are also very happy to learn the language and characters of the Ming people, because every time they learn, they can receive 10 catties of food, which is enough for the family to eat for several days.

And through learning, they also know the outside world, know a lot of things, know that the Ming Empire is the most powerful, richest, and most advanced empire, and they are now the people of the Ming Empire, the people of the Ming Dynasty , They should be proud and proud, and at the same time, they should consciously safeguard the Ming Empire and serve the Son of Ming!
This kind of learning, education and publicity is a subtle process, which needs to be accumulated slowly. At the same time, it must be accompanied by the continuous improvement of their lives to achieve the greatest effect and role.

"This is called a cultivator, and it is used to cultivate the land."

"The speed is very fast. There is no need to use hoes to plow the land like you. It is too slow."

Wu Yan smiled and introduced his cultivator to Tarasov and the others.

Because he has a lot of land and there is a lot of wasteland around it that can be reclaimed and cultivated, so Wu Yan also bought a cultivator to cultivate the land.

"Cultivator?"

Tarasov and the others looked at each other, and it was the first time they had heard of this thing.

"In many places in our Ming Dynasty, hoes are no longer used for farming, but machines are used."

"A cultivator plows the land, a seeder sows, a harvester harvests, and there are rice mills, flour mills, etc., all kinds of machines, there are many types, and the efficiency is also very high."

"Often a single farmer can cultivate thousands of acres of land, and when harvesting in autumn, the harvested grain warehouses cannot be piled up."

Wu Yan described the agricultural situation of Ming Dynasty to Tarasov and others.

His words also made Tarasov and the others widen their eyes. They cultivated thousands of acres of land alone, and the harvested grain warehouse could not hold it.

There are also all kinds of machines, which they have never heard of, let alone seen.

"I'll find out later, I'll be able to buy a lot of machines by then, so you can see what's going on."

Seeing their bewildered looks, Wu Yan immediately laughed.

Then he shook his head and continued to drive his own cultivator and started to get busy, talking to these serfs about the machine, it was a bit like playing the piano to the cow, how could they understand this.

Only by letting them see the mechanized agriculture of Ming Dynasty with their own eyes, will they know that farming can be very easy.

"Thuk~chuk~"

Accompanied by the sound of the cultivating machine, the machine pulled out a long belt on the vast field.

Seeing such an efficient plowing method, Tarasov couldn't believe it. He couldn't help but grabbed a handful of soil and looked at it carefully.

It is very tiring for them to use hoes to plow, especially when the land is still frozen, the soil is very sticky, and every swing requires a lot of strength.

Anyone who has grown vegetables knows that dry soil is relatively easier to plow, and wet land is the worst plow, because the soil will stick to the hoe, making it more difficult for you to wield it. Still need to clean up.

But looking at the land in front of him, it seems that these problems do not exist at all. The powerful cultivator directly turned the thick soil out without any effort.

And Wu Yan, who was sitting inside the cultivator, was actually singing and humming at this moment, just watching the cultivator walking around as if playing a game, without even sweating.

In just a short while, a large piece of land has been plowed. If they were to plow such a large piece of land, they would not know how many times to swing the hoes, and Khan would not know how much to keep.

What about Daming people?
They just sang, watched the machine walk a few times, and plowed the land with ease, which was better, deeper, and faster than what they had worked so hard to plow.

"Oh my God! Is this the way the Ming people farm the land?"

Tarasov and others couldn't help exclaiming, seeing the power of agricultural mechanization for the first time.
