On the other side, Sheng Ze "accidentally" came to Shen Qingqian's side and helped them transport the excavated sand to the creek and pile it up.
Shen Qingqian didn't want to take advantage of others, so she insisted on using a small dustpan to transport the sand. However, Cheng San followed her and used a wide wooden board to transport the sand.
Neither of them spoke. After running twice, Shen Qingqian saw that there were many people helping, so he slowed down and asked casually: "Brother Cheng San, where do you plan to build your land?"
"With you..." Shengze said without thinking, almost saying "with you".
Shen Qingqian said "Oh", then raised his hand to build a "pergola" between his eyebrows and looked out of the valley. He said to himself: "I don't know if I can open up wasteland outside the valley? At least there are streams here for irrigation. .”
In fact, she has thought about this matter in the past two days. It is most suitable to choose her own wasteland outside the valley. Firstly, it is close and convenient for work. Secondly, there is a stream passing through here. Unless there is a severe drought, Otherwise, irrigation is not a problem.
And even in the dry season, she can secretly hide the divine spring in the stream, which will definitely keep the crops in this area growing.
However, the land outside the valley is not as good as inside the valley. After it is reclaimed, it is difficult to ensure a harvest without some means.
Shengze also looked outside the valley, pondered for a long time and then said: "Otherwise, it would be better to change the place. If the outside of the valley was suitable for reclamation, it would not be left here until now."
The Jin Dynasty has been established for more than two hundred years, and it is impossible to test how many convicts there were during this period, but there must be a reason why no one has chosen to cultivate outside the valley for so many years.
In Shengze's heart, even when Shen Qingqian and the others were arranged to come to this valley to open up wasteland, the people in the court were making things difficult for them.
Looking at the cleared land now, they had dug down a foot deep, and what they saw was still sand, or rough sand mixed with many small gravels.
"Of course I know, but..." She just didn't want to see her family working too hard!
Shen Qingqian was really distressed. After thinking about it for a while, he came up with nothing, so he simply stopped thinking about it. After exhaling a breath, he smiled and said to Shengze, "How about this? If the land in the valley is reclaimed and food can be grown, I will let it go." My eldest brother went to get ten acres of land outside the valley to cultivate."
"What if the land in the valley cannot grow food?" Shengze asked curiously.
Shen Qingqian raised his lips and smiled, "Then my family's land cannot be planted outside the valley, but if we can't grow food in the valley, we can grow other things, so it won't be abandoned anymore."
She still has so many books in her hand. If she studies them carefully, she can always find a suitable plan.
After all, it is land that has been cultivated through hard work. Even if you cannot grow food, you can still try fruits and so on.
"Yeah." Shengze nodded lightly and didn't say much.
He didn't know much about farming to begin with, so what he was doing now was based on what others did, and what he just said about clearing land for his family was just following Shen Qingqian's words.
Because after the New Year, and after confirming that she had survived the disaster of being twelve years old, he was leaving.
…
Because the words were spoken by Chief Lu himself, Wang Tao did not dare to play tricks and reluctantly went to the mine to report early in the morning.
And the people who originally followed him to open up wasteland watched helplessly as the Shen family and others worked enthusiastically, so someone suggested that they should work together with the Shen family.
"Can people agree?"
"Whether he agrees with it or not, it's right for us to give it a try, right?"
"Yes, let's try it first. Let's go for a walk. Let's go find the second boy of the Shen family..."
