The river water continues to flow along the dug canal. In this wilderness, every villager is looking forward to the arrival of the river water.
On the third day, the river finally flowed to a place fifty miles away. This was the original site of the Rock Beach Hundred Households.
This is now the administrative center for managing the main wasteland here. Because there are complete houses and official halls here. Everyone in Yang Fan's land comes here to do business.
After all, there are more than 300,000 people here, and they need an official office to manage them. It's just that they are all the master's domestic slaves, and this official office is called the Internal Affairs Office. The director is concurrently held by Zhao Fu, the chief steward of the Yang Mansion, and the deputy director and assistants handle specific matters.
They report directly to Mrs.
Seeing the clear river water rushing in the main canal, people rushed to tell each other excitedly, "The water is coming, the water is coming."
All the families who were allocated land, men, women, old and young, went into battle together. They were so excited that they all ran to their own fields, waiting to be released.
A seventy-year-old man, watching the clear river flow, knelt down on the ground and kowtowed excitedly. His whole family knelt down and kowtowed.
With water, there is a harvest. The master has also allocated so much land. As long as you are willing to work hard, there will be no problem. The whole family finally has hope.
According to the above statement, after soaking in water for three days, the water can be drained after the water has fully dissolved the salt and alkali.
Then put in new water, repeat the cycle, and rinse ten times. In about a month, the land will be basically cleaned.
By then, it will be just in time for autumn grain planting.
I heard that just to be on the safe side, the authorities also distributed a salt-alkali-tolerant seed called sea rice.
It is said that it is rice that can be grown in sea water. It is extremely tolerant to saline-alkali soil, even if the ground is not washed clean, there will be no problem. Over a few years, the paddy fields will be washed clean after repeated water inflows and discharges. When the time comes, switch to high-yielding hybrid rice.
These people were stunned and couldn't believe it.
However, they all eat the master's food, and they dare not stop planting it, even though they are a little worried.
Grain is the lifeblood of farmers, who dares to joke about grain seeds.
However, they were all domestic slaves and did not dare to go against their master's wishes.
Anyway, even if we can’t grow anything by then, the family will still be able to eat the master’s food without worrying about going hungry.
Three days later, the turbid water was discharged into the river again. The originally clear river water turned into dirty water with white stains.
In the urban area of Zunhua, many people were surprised to find that the clear river water turned into a yellow mud soup, which was also covered with white foam. It was really inexplicable and they didn't know why.
The river water was polluted, making it impossible to eat and wash clothes.
In this era, many people still rely on river water to wash rice, cook, wash vegetables and clothes.
Although drinking river water directly in this way is not hygienic and can cause the spread of typhoid fever and dysentery.
But the panic did not last long, as the well house previously built in the city was opened. There is an iron water press inside, and the water produced is very delicious.
Yang Fan's people had anticipated this situation in advance and dug a hundred pressurized wells in the city and built well platforms with cement to form permanent buildings that were open to the public for free.
The groundwater is very safe. There are a hundred wells distributed in the urban area, and the well houses are built, and some disabled and retired soldiers from the regiment are hired to guard them.
It can not only do some cleaning work, but also provide them with a place to stay. In addition to the retirement salary, there is an additional monthly subsidy of 500 copper coins and a load of rice, which can be regarded as an additional income for life.
Nowadays, these disabled veterans on the battlefield are basically married.
After all, they have a pension and a house to live in.
It is not difficult to find a wife in this era, and these people are not picky. They will accept any widow or divorced woman as long as they can have children.
Old Cangtou was the old pawn who guarded the gate when Yang Fan and Xiao Niangpi first went to Luanshitan Baihu House.
In the subsequent Battle of Rock Beach, he was blinded in one eye. Although he was a guard soldier, Yang Fan also gave him the retirement benefits of a regiment training officer.
He is fifty-three this year. In addition to receiving a pension of 2,000,000,000,000,000 yuan a month, he now also takes over the responsibility of the administrator of a well house. This well house is a two-story building with three rooms on both floors.
On the first floor, one room is used to fetch water for the neighbors, and the other is a fire-fighting equipment warehouse for dealing with sudden fires. Another room is the administrator's office.
The second floor is where his family lives.
The old man found a thirty-year-old widow and brought a ten-year-old girl.
Now his wife has his baby again, and she sells vegetables at the door of the well house every day with a full belly.
This is a simple woman, hard-working and capable. There is a vegetable stall facing the street. Many neighbors will buy some vegetables to take home after fetching water.
Her prices are fair and the vegetables are fresh, so the neighbors are still willing to patronize her. After all, it's a bit embarrassing to get water for free.
It can also increase your income.
The old man, apart from guarding the well house, watching his wife selling vegetables and teasing his daughter, was always happy from ear to ear every day.
Who would have thought that I, who had been a bachelor all my life, would have some luck one day.
He fought hard in the brutal street fighting.
He stabbed to death a Buddhist slave and two bandits with a spear. Although he was also shot with two arrows and lost one eye, he almost didn't die.
But he has no regrets, because his hard work has brought about earth-shaking changes in his life.
The better his life gets, the more grateful he is to the master who gave him everything.
In addition to maintaining the well platform, he also practices martial arts every day.
Who knows when the master will start a war again, and he can still fight. This time he will make another fortune for his unborn child.
"The father of the child, I heard that he opened a public hospital in the city and invited more than thirty doctors from other places to come and see the doctor. They said they were family members of veterans. They went to the hospital to give birth for free. The wife of the Chen family in the front yard It’s the baby who went to the hospital to give birth.”
The old man's wife is a typical strong woman with big breasts and big butt, and she looks like she is fertile. The old man teased the girl brought by his wife and said: "We will also go there then. The director of that hospital is Mr. Chen, the former doctor in the Baihu Hospital. He killed Jiannu with us and is a comrade in arms. The master said that this is called the Four Irons, and it is an iron-clad friendship. When we go, we will definitely match you with the best nurses to take care of you."
After hearing her husband's proud words, the old man's wife showed a happy expression.
I really found the right husband. I and my children suddenly went from struggling for survival to falling into a honey pot.
She had a hard life, and her family was greedy for gifts. She married a tuberculosis man at the age of sixteen. Her husband died within ten years, leaving behind a pair of children. The burden of life fell on her alone. Unexpectedly, all the misfortunes in life did not let her go. Her husband died, and a few years later, her son contracted diphtheria and died in infancy.
Since the death of her son, she has lost all hope, her eyes have lost their luster, and she lives like a zombie.
Later, the marriage agency organized by Master Yang would visit widows and women who had been abandoned at home. As long as there were no problems with their lifestyle, they would be introduced to the old bachelors in the health center.
To this day, she still remembers the adults at the dating agency talking about the freedom of marriage and letting them watch a group of veterans in the hole in the wall.
Pick the one you like, because the economic conditions are similar, so if you don’t have anything to choose from, just pick the person you like.
I was so shy at that time that I wanted to run away.
But what the adults said is so good. Last time, you were ordered by your parents and the matchmaker, and you couldn't help yourself. This time, you choose one for yourself.
The husband I am looking for now, although his hair is gray, is actually only fifty-three years old this year, but he is strong and in good health.
She didn't have enough to eat before and was very thin, but now she eats well and practices martial arts every day. Her muscles are bulging all over her body, which makes her feel like a kitten scratching her heart.
Old men have the advantages of being old, they are warm and very caring.
It's not like that ex-husband with tuberculosis.
He also loves the children he brought with him. Although they are not his own, he has been a bachelor for half his life and is envious of other people's children. Now he is equally as rare if they are not his own.
She touched her belly happily. She was only thirty years old and could still give birth. She must give birth to more fat boys for her husband to repay her husband's love for her.
