Chapter 397(2/2)
The third is Du Yong's 3,000 acres of land, which has been distributed long ago, so the people can just go out of the city to farm. However, there are still some problems with living outside the city, such as daily necessities, housing construction, etc., which were followed by Nie Wentao himself.
The fourth is recruitment, with several hundred quotas, which are jointly responsible by Gao Qian and Nie Wentao.
Du Yong had nothing to do. He really tinkered with two acres of land, which was very close to the city, and the soil was very fertile. There was a small fish pond next to it and a small ditch for irrigation.
The place is very good. Du Yong also asked someone to build a temporary house nearby, where you can rest and cook.
Du Yong did the work of turning over the ground himself. He made a plow and led two cows. When turning over the ground, he attracted many busy people nearby.
After turning over the floor, Du Yong tied the cow up, took the kettle handed over by Lingling, raised his head and poured half of the pot, and shouted that he was satisfied. Then he took the towel handed over by Qingyao to wipe his sweat. He was not satisfied with it, so he buried his head in the small ditche next to him and washed it happily.
The people were discussing in a low voice. This Lord Du was really strange. He was not good at being a rich man, but he came to turn the ground. The key was that the land was very well turned, and he didn't complain, and he had the style of an old farmer.
However, in this way, Du Yong's easy-going image became more deeply rooted in people's hearts, and the people were willing to deal with him, or even joked because Du Yong would not be angry.
"Hello, Master Du!" An old farmer stepped forward and asked with a smile: "You are very fertile in these two acres of land. What are you going to plant?"
"You are good, too!"
Du Yong responded with a smile and asked back: "What do you think is good to plant? I don't understand very much."
The old farmer thought for a while and suggested: "Grow radishes and cabbage, rapeseed is OK, it grows quickly. Now all the vegetables in the city have to be transported from Ganzhou City and Chuanming County. The price is not much different than meat and is not fresh. If you grow it yourself, you can eat it soon. If you have a good taste, you can still sell it at a good price."
Speaking of this, the old farmer patted his forehead and smiled silly, "The old man almost forgot that Mr. Du is not short of money."
Du Yong waved his hand: "Then let's get radish and rapeseed."
Lingling asked, "Young Master, isn't rapeseed oil-pressed?"
Du Yong grabbed his head: "The cabbage heart of rapeseed should be edible, right?"
The old farmer nodded: "You can eat it, and the seedlings can also be eaten, and they are more delicious than ordinary vegetables."
Qingyao pointed to the fish pond: "Young Master, I saw fish swimming just now. Should we cut some grass and feed the fish?"
"There are fish?"
Du Yong's eyes lit up and he laughed: "Immediately open the pond to release water. I want to fish in the terrible waters and eat grilled fish tonight."
Lingling and Qingyao rolled their eyes together.
