Chapter 75 Rewards
The three nodded obediently, and then Chen Huiyin said, "Father, if I finish all the homework assigned by my husband, can I go to patrol the fields?"

Chen Boyu nodded: "Of course." After finishing speaking, he looked at Chen Boyan and Tang Yaoling: "You two are the same, you can do your own things after completing the homework assigned by your husband."

Because Wu Shengzhe and his disciples don't know how to cook, it would be too wasteful to hire a cooking woman alone, so Chen Boyu invited Wu Shengzhe and his disciples to have dinner at home.

Seeing that Chen Boyan didn't mention the food expenses, Wu Shengzhe knew that they didn't intend to collect the food expenses, so he offered to guide Chen Boyan's studies to offset the food expenses, so Chen Boyan became half of Wu Shengzhe's student.

There was still some time until the end of March, and Chen Boyu continued to open up wasteland with five long-term workers who were able-bodied. As for the five disabled people, they also had work. They were responsible for loosening the soil in the backyard of the old house, and then erecting a shelf. Seedling shed for rice.

Although these five people were disabled, they were all on their legs. Either their left leg was amputated or their stone leg was amputated. But because of the prosthetic limbs, let alone walking normally, they just built this kind of simple shed and dug the ground in a short time. , Farming will not be affected, but their artificial limbs will not be able to bear it if they open up wasteland for a long time.

Even the five people who went to open up wasteland didn't mean they were allowed to work blindly without rest. Chen Boyu and them happened to be six people, in a group of three, divided into two groups to take turns to open up wasteland, and with the tools that were easy to use, they didn't feel too tired.

There are more people, and more wasteland has been opened up, but within a few days, they opened up another [-] mu of land, and Chen Boyu stopped opening up wasteland, because there is a farm, and now their family does not lack farmyard manure. The mu of land was fertilized once with farm manure, and the time also entered late March.

After 20 days of classes, Wu Shengzhe gave the children a busy farming leave for half a month.

Looking at the children cheering and leaving, Wu Shengzhe shook his head with a broken smile, and then said to the four disciples: "We can't just study blindly, Xiaoyang, Xiaochen, you two will start tomorrow with Dalang and Qiaojieer Go to the field, experience the work of farming for a few days, and return to school after five days to continue the class."

From the next day, Chen Huiyin and Tang Yaoling took Mu Yang and Wei Chen to the field, instead of going to the [-] acres of wasteland at home, they moved the seedlings to the home with their parents and uncle. A few acres of good fields.

As for the [-] mu of land opened up at the beginning of last year and after the autumn, the soil fertility is better because it has been raised. Among them, [-] mu are used to plant potatoes and new varieties of corn, and the other [-] mu are reserved for cold planting. For cold vegetables, the [-] acres of wasteland that has just been bloomed is planted with the high-yielding corn in Chen Huiyin's hands.

The forty acres of Chen Boyu were handed over to the family's long-term laborer to plant. He and his wife put their energy on the few acres of upland rice and wheat, and set aside a few acres of land to grow strawberries and red melon seeds.

In fact, strawberries are perennial plants, but it is cold in Lingwu in winter. Chen Huiyin left some of the strawberries planted last year. When the weather got cold, she built a simple greenhouse with bamboo strips and straw mats to keep them safe. Get through the winter.

However, such a simple greenhouse can be set up for small-scale planting. For large-scale planting, the cost of setting up such a greenhouse is too high. Bamboo strips and straw mats are next. , At least ensure that it is above five degrees, and strawberry plants below five degrees will be frostbitten.

If strawberries are planted on a large scale in the Jiangnan area, there is no need to worry. It will not be so cold there in winter. It is enough to build a simple greenhouse, and the cost will be much lower.

So when the villagers came to buy seeds at home, Chen Huiyin didn't mention the ramets, so they should be planted as annual plants.

While every household in the village was busy with spring plowing in the fields, they saw a man riding a tall horse, wearing armor and a long sword hanging from his waist. A carriage appeared in the village.

The leader was Yu Jun. He knew Chen Boyu's house, and he led his people straight to Chen's house.

Chen Boyu happened to be at home, saw Yu Jun, and very unexpectedly welcomed him and his personal guards into the house.

Yu Jun followed Chen Boyu into the main room, waited for the guards to put down their things, and let them go to the courtyard.

Chen Boyan helped his sister-in-law bring hot tea to greet the guards in the yard, while Zhou Jinghao entered the main room with tea.

Chen Boyu waited for his wife to put down the tea and sat down beside him before he said, "Brother Yu, what do you mean by bringing these things?" After speaking, his eyes fell on the dozens of brightly colored cloths and boxed boxes on the table. There was a little uneasiness on the gold buds and jewellery.

Yu Jun smiled heartily: "This is a reward from His Majesty. After the first lunar month, I occasionally saw someone taking a farm tool with a very strange shape from the blacksmith shop. I asked my followers to inquire about it, and then I realized that it was a new type of land reclamation weapon.

So he asked his followers to order a few. When the farm tools were in hand and the soldiers in the camp tried them out, they knew they were good, so they asked people to find out where the farm tools came from, and at the same time sent the drawings to Shangdu. His Majesty's case.

His Majesty also asked people to build a few, took them to Huangzhuang for trial use, and found that they were very effective, so he distributed the blueprints to various states and counties for promotion, and achieved good results. His Majesty was very happy, and gave me many rewards.

But I didn't invent this thing, I can't take it for myself, but my followers found out about the house of the village head of your village. I will personally bring you the reward. "

Speaking of this, Yu Jun paused, picked up the tea bowl, drank two sips of tea, and then continued: "In addition to the cloth, gold, and jewellery, His Majesty also rewarded three weapons: daggers, bows and arrows, and swords. Thinking that you won't need it, I kept it for my own use, and added some cloth and silver to the reward.

I think about the head of your village, and it took a lot of thought to promote this farm tool, so I will give him the fabric and silver that I added, what do you think? "

Chen Boyu naturally had no objection, and suggested: "Actually, I only published a blueprint. Brother Fang is the one who worries about the promotion of agricultural tools. Why don't you share some of these things with Brother Fang?"

But Yu Jun stopped him and said: "No, it's too eye-catching, it may not be a good thing for the village chief's family, besides, these things were originally rewarded to you by His Majesty, adding weapons to the reward is just a deception, so you can keep it at ease!"

After hearing this, Chen Boyu understood in his heart, and he didn't worry about it anymore: "I see, should I deliver the other copy, or should you go there yourself?"

 Send today's update, see you guys tomorrow, okay?
