There is a good husband in the crossing house

Chapter 081 Buying land to open up wasteland

Leaving the fish pond, Qi Lan went to the last two acres of Shatian. This Shatian in Qijia Village is usually used to grow sweet potatoes, and other than that, it seems to be of little use.

Because Shatian is the most vulnerable to water shortage, and for most crops, the most indispensable thing is water.

But Qi Lan knew that if the right plants were planted in this Shatian.In fact, it can also be a big harvest, as far as he knows it.For example, watermelons, yams, and Codonopsis pilosula are all suitable for planting in sandy fields.

By the way, there is also Shatian pomelo. Shatian pomelo should also be grown in Shatian. I remember that when I bought pomelo, Shatian pomelo was more expensive and more delicious than ordinary grapefruit.

It's a pity, Qi Lan thought about it carefully, Shatian pomelo and Codonopsis pilosula are probably not available in the Great Xia Dynasty at this moment, right?

There may be, but people should not have discovered it. After all, in ancient times, people usually ate ginseng in the mountains to find wild ones, which is precisely because of this.

Therefore, the price of ginseng has remained high, and it is simply not affordable for ordinary people.

Ahem, this topic is a bit far-fetched. Qi Lan finally chose watermelon and yam among the crops he knew could be grown in Shatian. These two are more popular, and the seeds should be easier to find.

It's just that Qi Lan tried hard to find the memories in his mind. It's a pity that he has eaten yam, which shows that the seeds of this yam should not be too difficult, but this watermelon...

Was it because he didn't have that blessing before, or did Qingshui County not have it at all?

After pondering for a long time, Qi Lan still didn't think of the reason, and finally decided not to bother the second master at all, and was going to ask the shopkeeper Wang for help. Yueke Restaurant has such a good network and internal staff purchase channels. Not using it, Qi Lan felt a little sorry for being able to know shopkeeper Wang and Qiao Mingyue!

"Husband, what are you writing, so serious." Qi Lan has been shutting herself in the study since returning home, and Su Fang opened the door and came in without paying attention.

"Oh, it's Xiao Fang. I'm writing a letter to Shopkeeper Wang, asking him to find something for me."

Qi Lan talked about his thoughts roughly. After Qi Lan's repeated thinking, he felt that he would first tell Shopkeeper Wang about watermelon, yam, Codonopsis pilosula, and Shatian pomelo. What kind of seeds can he find? Just plant something.What if, if you are lucky, you really find Dangshen?

What Qi Lan will write now is the detailed introduction of these four things. After writing, let the people who will go to the town tomorrow help him to send it to Yueke Restaurant.Anyway, the people in Qijia Village are now familiar with Yueke, and they don't even have the guts to approach Yueke Restaurant as before.

Su Fang listened quietly to Qi Lan talking about her thoughts, nodding from time to time without interjecting, waited until Qi Lan finished speaking, thought for a while, and then said: "But my husband, our house only has two acres of sandy land, if these I have found the seeds, how do I plant them then? If only half an acre of each is planted, that would be too little."

If it was before, they would still be able to buy sand from the villagers.

After all, apart from growing sweet potatoes, this sandy land is useless.In the past, this sweet potato was just something to feed pigs, so it was nothing unusual.But it’s different now. Whether it’s dried sweet potatoes or vermicelli, they can be sold for a lot of money. They can’t wait to have a few more acres of sandy fields at home. How can they be willing to sell them out?

This is actually something that Qi Lan has considered, but now Qi Lan has a solution: "Don't worry, Xiao Fang, have you noticed that the piece of wasteland next to our house has about ten acres of wasteland. It's Sha Tin."

"Husband means that you want to dig out those wastelands?"

Su Fang's eyes lit up. The Great Xia Dynasty had regulations. In order to encourage the people to plant more, the newly opened wasteland can be exempted from tax for the first three years. You only need to go to the yamen to register, and there will be people in the yamen after three years. Start collecting taxes.

But Qi Lan shook her head when she heard the words, just when Su Fang was puzzled, Qi Lan said again: "It's not land reclamation, it's bought directly, the sandy land is about [-] mu.

Because it is some distance away from the village, under normal circumstances no one will come here to cultivate.But just in case, I'm going to buy it better. "

"Buy?" Su Fang's eyes widened suddenly: "Buy [-] acres of Shatian?"

Su Fang quickly calculated in his mind that his family now has twelve acres of land.In fact, this is considered a lot. Ordinary people usually have seven or eight acres, and less than four or five acres are normal.

After all, it is very expensive to buy land, if you buy too much but can't grow it, the government will take it back directly in the end.

"That's right, buy it directly. After Mr. Qiao gives me the bonus, I will go to the Yamen to buy the land."

Qi Lan has already considered this matter carefully, and there is no need to think about it at all.

"But husband, with so many fields, we can't plant them. If we buy them and don't plant them, the yamen will take back the fields, and we won't refund the money for the land."

Compared with Qi Lan's confidence, Su Fang is a little worried. Why do you feel that your husband is becoming more and more unreliable now?

"Don't worry, Xiao Fang, I've already thought about what to do about this matter, and I'm sure I won't let these fields be taken back by the yamen in the end."

Qi Lan didn't know what Su Fang was thinking, and she was trying to comfort her little husband at the moment: "Besides, these four crops don't need someone to guard the field all day, so there won't be any problems."

Since the husband has already said so, Su Fang nodded and said nothing more, and once again gave his confidence to the husband.

He knew that her husband would definitely not disappoint people. His husband is a person who is dedicated to doing great things!

When Qi Lan finished writing the letter, it was getting late, so he asked Su Fang to help chop the grass leaves. He went to the village to find someone to help him bring the letter to shopkeeper Wang tomorrow, and when he came back, he would feed the fish together. There are many at home now. Everything has been set up, and Qi Lan doesn't need to go to town every day anymore.

Besides, he plans to go to the mountain alone with Xiao Fang tomorrow, which is the mountain on the other side of the village that Uncle Da Zhuang said.

At this time, it has entered late autumn, and when I came out of the study, I felt a coolness hit, it seems that winter is coming soon;

After thinking about it, Qi Lan touched a few taels of silver and came out from the space. He felt that the cotton clothes at home might not be enough, so he might as well ask someone to help him bring some cotton cloth back.

When Qi Lan came back, Su Fang had already chopped the grass leaves to feed the fish. The two went to feed the fish together and came back, and then made dinner together. The family of four ate a hot dinner together. This day passed again .
