Chapter 168 Imperial Decree to Promotion

The family who helped reclaim the wasteland before, came over to help spread the composted fertilizer on the 30 acres of land, and it took two days to spread it.

It is just these two days that the sun is enough to kill the eggs inside and avoid pests and diseases.

On the third day, the cattle and ploughs rented from the Weisuo in advance were sent to the ground, and the second ploughing was started, and it was ploughed as deeply as last time, so that the fertilizer could be better absorbed by the land.

After    Yunyi and their fields were fully prepared for spring planting, there was a light rain that night.

A few days later, the Xiao family's land was cleared, and some of the land was just to fool them, that is, the grass was pulled up, and the ground was cut. .

As expected, five sets of ploughs were rented, and two sets of ploughshares were damaged in one day. The two sets of ploughshares alone cost the Weisuo two taels of silver, which made the Xiao family feel bad.

Where is this going?

If the ploughshare can be damaged when ploughing, it means that the stones in the field have not been picked up, and the digging is not deep enough when the land is cleared, and there is still dead soil below, and a small stone may break the ploughshare.

The first step of the previous foundation was not done well, and the things that followed were natural, and the ploughing was probably fooling them.

When it comes to spring sowing, I'm afraid it won't work if I want to sow the seeds, I'm afraid that I will be able to pull the seeds to pieces.

A few days later, the guard informed them that they could receive the seeds. Yunyi and the others brought wheat, sorghum (sorghum), corn (millet), soybeans, and black beans.

They didn’t know much about farming, but they asked others beforehand. Seeing that someone had started planting, they started spring planting. They planted ten acres of wheat, ten acres of millet, five acres of corn, and three acres of land. Soybeans, two acres of black beans.

After all the following plants are finished, the ground should be removed. Not to mention that this kind of ground is really not easy, and there will be no idle time.

Yunyi drew a picture for Jing Rui based on his previous knowledge, and asked him to play a few light hoes. After the experiment at the guard house, he is also ready to promote it vigorously. It is indeed lighter and easier to use than the previous hoe.

Jing Rui was not greedy for merit, and he also told the people over there that it was Yun Yi’s drawing, which made Yun Yi famous in the guard house, and everyone became curious about Yun Yi, and became famous for a while.

At this moment, Jing Rui also ushered in good news for him and his brothers. There was news about the memorial that the commander had previously reported, and the imperial decree had arrived, from the commander to the people who participated in the operation that night. All were rewarded.

Because of this memorial, Sheng Shanglong was very happy, and he was directly promoted to the position of Jingrui Baihu, and he was also rewarded with a thousand taels of silver.

As soon as the news came out, the Jing family and the Xiao family were so anxious that they almost beat their chests. I don't know how many people laughed at them behind their backs.

Jing Rui took the imperial decree and thanked him, and took office directly. It was Wei Baihu who took over the position, but he didn't know how Wei Baihu would react when he found out.

There were also a group of exiled people who arrived with the imperial edict, and Cao Qianhu and the others also took over some of them.

As soon as Jing Rui took office, the first thing to do was to dispose of Wei Baihu's old department and replace him directly with his own people. All those who had followed him through life and death had their positions.

Cao Qianhu also took advantage of this opportunity to make a major adjustment in Wei Li, and Jing Rui also felt that the opportunity was rare, and directly used some means to change the people from Jing Hongnan's small banner to his subordinate banner.

This made Jing Hongnan heave a sigh of relief. It was because those people didn't accept it. He was so aggrieved by this little flag that he could be transferred away.
