The harvest is finally over. After harvesting the wheat ears, the land can be plowed and transplanted. Yang Lin has been focusing on harvesting grain these days. Even when he returns home, he only eats in a hurry. Sometimes, facing Lu Pheasant's resentful eyes

He had a headache and could only choose to escape from the gentle and pouty cheeks.

"How is the grain procurement going?" On this day, Yang Lin came to Wang Shan and Xia Houying and asked with concern.

Xia Houying replied calmly, "Since the last time, things have been going smoothly here in Sishuiting. In addition, our prices are higher than the market price. Ying estimates that almost all the farmers who are willing to sell grain have sold. In the past few days, the amount we purchased has been higher than before."

Much less."

"The same goes for Lishui Pavilion. Everything that can be sold has been sold. I don't think Brother Lin will be able to receive it." Wang Shan said with cupped hands.

Yang Lin nodded, indicating that he knew, then he sat on Tamu Mountain, and asked Xia Houying and Xia Houying to sit down together, and then said: "Can the current total amount be enough for taxation?"

Xia Houying continued to answer, "As of now, we have purchased nearly twenty-five shi of grain, which is enough for tax purposes."

"So..." Yang Lin held his chin and thought for a moment, then said after a pause, "Since enough taxes have been paid, Lishui Pavilion can stop the acquisition. As for Surabaya Pavilion, Brother Xiahou, please trouble me for a few more days."

Wang Shan looked puzzled, frowned slightly, and asked thoughtfully, "Brother Lin, what does this mean? If it is enough, why go to Surabaya Pavilion again."

"Because of Liu Ji." Yang Lin's eyes flickered and he said calmly, "Wang Shan, now that every household has finished harvesting, can all statistics be recorded?"

"Brother Lin, please rest assured that everything has been recorded and no household has been missed." Although Wang Shan still didn't understand Yang Lin's intention of continuing to collect grain, he still hurriedly answered the question.

Yang Lin smiled with satisfaction. He was relatively relieved about Wang Shan's work, and said, "A part of the purchased grain will be distributed to these twelve families as rations. The rest will be strictly guarded and remember not to catch fire."

.”

"No!" Wang Shan responded and immediately went out to arrange the matter.

"If nothing happens to the pavilion chief, Ying will take people to Sishui Pavilion to continue purchasing grain." He didn't understand Yang Lin's intention, but he didn't ask because he knew his responsibilities and could just carry out Yang Lin's instructions.

After the two left, Yang Lin inspected the wheat fields alone. Now every household is plowing the land in preparation for spring planting. Looking from a distance, several old oxen were driven by Han Ding to pull the wooden pear "Moo moo"

"Crying hard and moving forward, the fields after harvesting wheat were renovated bit by bit.

Yang Lin knelt down and saw that the entire Lishui Pavilion seemed quiet and peaceful, and the people lived a carefree life. He sighed in his heart that this kind of life was what he yearned for, no disputes, no intrigues, just living quietly and freely.

Stay alive!

He sighed and casually grabbed a handful of plowed soil in his hands. As he was thinking about it, he heard the words of a farmer passing by behind him, "This year's wheat harvest is much more than in previous years. Now we don't have to worry about food rations until the autumn harvest."

Hearing this, a flash of inspiration flashed in Yang Lin's mind, as if he had caught something. He looked down at the soil in his hand, then opened it and took a look. Then his idea was confirmed, and he hurriedly got up and hurried back to the pavilion.

"Go and find Ting Fu Wang Shan." As soon as he returned to the pavilion, he immediately ordered the people outside the door.

Not long after, Wang Shan entered the hut at the foot of the pavilion, bowed his hands and asked, "What do you want from the pavilion chief? Shan just distributed the rations to the twelve families."

Yang Lin immediately told him what he had just thought, "Now that there is a good harvest, people have enough food at home, so there is no need to worry about food shortages in the summer. After thinking about it just now, if the output is also increased during the autumn harvest, wouldn't there be no worries in winter?"

"That's what we say, but this kind of land depends on us, and the harvest depends on God. How can we say that increasing production will increase." Wang Shan said with some doubts after thinking deeply.

"That's a bad statement." Yang Lin smiled and pointed at Wang Shan and continued, "The cultivation, sowing, irrigation, and harvesting of this land are indeed done by humans. Rain, drought, locust plagues, and diseases are all done by God, but the yield

In addition to the above factors, there are also ways to increase manpower."

When Wang Shan heard this, he already knew that Yang Lin had a way, so he couldn't help but look happy and asked emotionally, "Brother Lin has a way to increase production?"

Yang Lin nodded, everything was clear in his mind, and he said again, "Yes, this is exactly why I came to you. Apart from human power and God's gift, the power of this place cannot be ignored."

"The power of the earth?" Wang Shan was a little confused.

Seeing this, Yang Lin continued to explain, "The fertility of farmland soil is also the key to increasing production."

"I understand. After we harvested the wheat, didn't we burn all the wheat residue to plow the ground?"

Yang Lin shook his head. Although ashes can increase soil fertility, it is not the most ideal in his mind. "It is far from enough. If there is enough excrement to apply to the soil, the effect will be better."

"Feces?" Wang Shan was confused and continued to ask, "Brother Lin, is this method feasible?"

Yang Lin nodded confidently, smiled faintly, looked at the latter, and said, "No need to worry, this method can keep the soil fertile and increase the yield."

"Since Brother Lin said it's feasible, it must be feasible." Wang Shan finally felt relieved and said with a smile, "But where can we collect excrement in such a short period of time? The whole pavilion's farmland uses a lot of it."

"Since you no longer need to collect grain, take some people to other kiosks to collect excrement. The speed should be fast and bring more people. Now that the land has begun to be cultivated, we need to take advantage of this to let farmers spread excrement." Yang Lin put away

With a smile just now, he ordered solemnly.

Hearing this, Wang Shan did not dare to delay and immediately retreated. Then he mobilized more than ten strong men from Anyang Village, and also collected bullock carts and wooden barrels, and hurried to other pavilions.

Yang Lin didn't rest either. He immediately told all the farmers about this method and asked them to stop plowing until the manure was collected before continuing. Although farming depends on the season, it cannot be delayed for too long, but because of Yang

Lin's prestige is very high, and a considerable number of farmers still obey this order.

Afterwards, Yang Lin also left with a dozen people. Now Xia Houying is still collecting grain in Sishui Pavilion, and Li Ba and Zhao Meng are also helping. There is no one around, so he personally leads a team of people to collect excrement. Time is running out.

Others, farming must be completed within the next few days, otherwise the output will be affected if the season is over.

Arriving at a nearby pavilion, Yang Lin ordered everyone to go around to collect the items from each house. Before leaving, he told everyone not to break into people's houses, destroy people's belongings, and not to humiliate people at will.

Yang Lin also worked with his own hands, driving an oxcart with a huge wooden bucket on it, visiting every house to collect excrement. As he was driving the oxcart to the next house, he didn't expect that someone suddenly appeared in a panic.

Without looking at the road, he suddenly bumped into the bullock cart.

Okay, I admit that collecting feces in this chapter is a bit disgusting, but it is to pave the way for the future, so please continue reading.
Chapter completed!
