As a lord, I was forced to farm

Chapter 101 Harvest
On the way to Nanzhu Village, it was the time when the villagers were harvesting wheat.

It is the end of May.

With the growth of the wheat spirit monster, the growth of the wheat in Suling Town is getting better and better, and the speed of maturity has also accelerated. At present, the wheat is already golden and mature.

"Harvest harvest!"

Someone looked at the heavy wheat and was shocked for a moment.

A wheat plant is more than one meter high. The spikes are very long, and the wheat ears are dense and full, bending the head of the wheat.

"It's been more than ten years, and it's the first time I've seen such good wheat!!"

A farmer held the ears of wheat with his hands, and was very excited, "The fruit produced by each stalk of wheat is as delicate as it was sent to the lord's mansion in previous years!"

"It's not as shriveled as before!"

"Is this the divine power of a monster?!"

"No, there is still our work!" Someone said happily, "We can harvest so much wheat by farming as the lord said!"

"I'm full, I'm full!" The children were relatively simple, and they ran on the ridge of the field, shouting excitedly.

These words are a bit sad, but the children's words are the voices of all the farmers present.

Jiang Nancheng pulled her clothes, not knowing what mood he was in. Although he had been despised before and had no sense of existence, at least he was full. "Sister, they seem to be very happy."

Jiang Ran watched this scene from a distance, perhaps the joy of the harvest was also passed on to her.

Met Li Yiniu again.

Jiang Nancheng greeted, "Uncle Li."

Li Yiniu and him called each other, "Master Nancheng is good."

He said to Jiang Ran again, "My lord, are you also here to see the villagers harvesting wheat?"

Li Yiniu, as the Lingnong Secretary of Yaoling Pavilion, is devoted to his duty. Except in Biquan Bay, he has been guarding the field these days.

"Passing by." Jiang Ran replied honestly.

Jiang Ran and Li Yiniu looked at the busy villagers together.

Compared with the wheat that was green and yellow at the beginning, these wheats have undergone an earth-shaking change.

Moreover, Jiang Ran didn't know if it was her illusion, she always felt that this wheat was a little different from the wheat she had seen before!

The yellow leaves of the mature wheat are a little reddish, as if they were inadvertently painted with vermilion by a painter.

In a daze, Jiang Ran heard Li Yiniu say: "My lord, thanks to you, the villagers may be able to save a lot of food this year, and this winter may be better."

Speaking of winter, in addition to storing food, it is the clothes needed for winter.

Looking at some poor villagers, simply splicing a few pieces of rags together to make clothes for a year.

Some people even wear a piece of clothing since the village was built until now. The joy in Jiang Ran's heart dissipated in an instant, and she suddenly felt that "the road is far away", and there is still a long way to be a qualified lord to go.

"It's still far away." Jiang Ran said.

Li Yiniu thought that Jiang Ran was dissatisfied with the yield of one mu, so he quickly explained, "Compared to previous years, the yield has really improved a lot! In previous years, one mu of field would be enough for three to four hundred catties, but this crop can reach seven One hundred catties per mu!"

The monk's five senses are more sensitive. While listening to Li Yiniu's words, Jiang Ran heard a child ask her mother, "Mother, don't we have to worry about being hungry in the future?"

The child's mother said, "We won't be hungry anymore, and we will have a lot of food in reserve!"

The land tax in Suling Town is actually quite heavy. One-tenth of the harvest in the field will be confiscated. After Jiang Ran came to power, he encouraged the villagers to open up wasteland, saying that the wasteland would not pay tax within three years, but the tax on ordinary land has not changed. passed.

What's more, even if the villagers don't plant ordinary fields, as long as your name is written on that piece of land, they still have to pay taxes.

In previous years, when it was time to harvest wheat, the villagers had mixed joys and sorrows, but it was rare that they were all happy.

The child's mother was still saying: "Little boy, you have to remember that our lord fed us, and you will be a useful person to the lord in the future~"

"Yeah, mother, please remember, when you grow up, you will be a useful person to the lord!"

"..."

Eavesdropping is not done by a gentleman. Although Jiang Ran is not a gentleman, she accidentally snooped here and sealed her spiritual consciousness. At this moment, the sound of the system's promotion suddenly came, which made Jiang Ran stunned.

[Mission: You have worked tirelessly to let the people understand the importance of farming, and ushered in the first bumper harvest in the territory. Reward: [-] square meters of moraine spiritual soil]

(Evaluation: Thousands of people, loyal to one body! A town-level territory that coexists on land and sea has certain development potential.)
"Thousands of people, loyal to one body..."

The loyalty value unexpectedly increased by 5 points, reaching 70.

What surprised Jiang Ran even more was the [-] square meters of moraine spiritual soil. Jiang Ran was still worried that it would take a lot of work for the Bingzhi Lingworm to become a ghost, but now he doesn't have to worry too much.

But this moraine spiritual soil, like the heart of Lingquan, needs Jiang Ran to find a place to put it by himself.

Naturally, this kind of thing has to be placed quietly by Mimi alone, and Jiang Ran plans to go to Biquan Bay later today.

Right now, Li Yiniu is still rambling on, "Because of this bumper wheat harvest, more people want to open up wasteland..."

……

Fragments of golden light pass through the whirling branches and sprinkle on the soil mottledly. The warm wind blows a delicate fragrance to Nanzhu Village, bringing a natural and pure atmosphere.

More than a dozen brand-new wooden houses were uprooted on the ground, and some people who moved quickly had already built their houses. It was noon, and the smoke from the kitchen was wafting from the air, and this new village finally had a breath of life.

Because Jiang Ran provided wood for free to the villagers to build their houses, most of the houses built by them were beautiful and sturdy.

Don't underestimate wooden houses. Compared with stone and brick houses, wooden houses are indeed not as hard and durable, but wooden houses can adjust temperature and humidity to achieve a cool effect in summer and warm in winter.

Of course, the main thing is that wooden houses are quick and cheap to build.

Even though there are cement workers and brick and tile burners in the town, there are still a few who can live in brick houses.

"Sister, do you have anything to do in Nanzhu Village?" Jiang Nancheng was curious.

"Look at the situation in Nanzhu Village, and then take the Cocoa Demon Spirit back to the Cocoa Forest."

Jiang Ran also plans to find a land near Nanzhu Village for shipbuilding, but there is no need to tell Jiang Nancheng about this.

　The territory level of that system used to be D, but now it has been changed to town level
