Traveling through ancient times.

She even dared to kill the housekeeper who had worked in the Jiang family for decades. Who doesn't know what she is up to?

She actually wanted him to pick her up in person? Dream on!

Ning Jianren was furious but had no place to vent. He really regretted not sacrificing his life to completely kill this troublemaker.

Once he got angry, all the servants in the Jiang family’s old house had a hard time.

Jiang Zijun, in particular, had finally stabilized after taking several doses of pregnancy-stabilizing medicine. Now she was so frightened that she hid in the side yard and didn't even dare to go out.

In the spring of March, the grass grows and orioles fly.

In a blink of an eye, two or three months had passed since the end of the year. Things seemed to have calmed down at the old house, and Jiang Yizhou inspected his farm as usual.

After more than half a year of hard work, everything at Yunshan Farm is finally on track.

Waterwheels, ponds and irrigation canals were put into use. Especially during spring plowing and sowing, this irrigation network played a huge role. In just one or two days, hundreds of acres of land were irrigated.

This had never happened before and it excited everyone.

Cassava has already been planted, covering about one hundred acres.

The remaining one hundred acres of reclaimed land were all sown with wheat seeds produced by the system.

The wheat seedlings have grown to more than one foot tall. Compared with other crops such as barley and oats, the plants are very strong, but it is still unclear how they achieve such high yields.

Jiang Yizhou was also a little excited. She watched the waterwheel turning, the clear stream flowing, the wheat seedlings spreading a layer of emerald green blanket on the ground, and the transplanted cassava on the mountain had formed a green shade.

The wheat is about to ear.

Well, if she can hold on for two more months at most and wait for the first round of funds to come in, she will be able to do more things.

It was a pity that she didn't find more good fish fry, and the pond was just a reservoir of water, without maximizing its value.

... Jiang Yizhou took a tour outside and returned to the manor in the afterglow of the setting sun.

There was no wheat planted around the manor. Instead, the land was divided into strips of vegetable plots, planted with seasonal vegetables, most of which were improved varieties that Jiang Yizhou exchanged from Xiao Tongzi.

For example, cabbage seeds, melon seeds and so on.

These are not like regular food, so only a few dozen or a hundred merits are needed for each one.

Because there is sufficient water, the fruits and vegetables grow very well. There are fresh vegetables every day and we can never eat them all.

Occasionally they would give it to the farmers who came to work, and the rest would be sold by Tao Er and his friends when they went to Fusong Town.

It's at least some income, which can be used to improve everyone's food.

Among the vegetable varieties, Jiang Yizhou most wanted to exchange seeds of cabbage and white radish, both of which have very high yields.

Every time she sent people to the county or town, they would bring back some varieties of vegetables that were not available in the farm to see if there were similar ones.

Just two days ago, Brother Tao brought back a bunch of seedlings with long, saw-like leaves on top and a thin white rhizome underneath.

Jiang Yizhou took a look and found that the leaf looked a bit like a white radish.

She took a bite of the rhizome, it tasted bitter, and she quickly spat it out.

At that moment, Xiao Tongzi sent a message: "This is the unimproved white radish. Congratulations, you have discovered a species of the same type, so now you only need 300 merits to exchange for improved seeds."

Jiang Yizhou was immediately excited as she looked at the introduction of white radish that Xiao Tongzi took the initiative to show her: the yield per mu could reach 10,000 jin!

She thought, even if the soil here is relatively poor, there are at least 7,000 to 8,000 kilograms of vegetables, whether it is eaten directly or made into pickles or dried vegetables, it is a good choice.

But when I looked at the account, there was only a little over a hundred points.

Because the waterwheel and she employ workers to work every day, they invisibly provide more job opportunities for everyone, so they gain merit every day.

She estimated that at the current rate, she should be able to collect all the white radish seeds in more than a month.

Jiang Yizhou looked calm on the surface, but in fact she was more nervous than anyone else.

All hopes rest on the wheat which will be harvested in more than two months.

If this is really a good harvest, then not only can she make back a large sum of money, but her reputation will really spread, and it will not be easily shaken by those rumors.

Jiang Yizhou was nervous, and so were the people on the farm. Even all those who had worked there before and those who had not worked there before were full of curiosity and anticipation about this vast wheat field.

Because Miss Jiang promised them that once there was a good harvest, she would leave some wheat seeds for them.

So, now, except Ning Jianren who hopes that all this is just a farce, everyone else hopes that Jiang Yizhou's farm will have a good harvest.

...As soon as Jiang Yizhou walked into the yard, he almost bumped into the impetuous Zhang Ni.

Zhang Ni has already passed the probation period and is now the fourth maid serving Jiang Yizhou.

However, Jiang Yizhou did not assign her any tasks. Instead, he gave her a small courtyard next to the kitchen.

She has been doing all kinds of things in there for the past few months.

These are all ideas that Jiang Yizhou comes up with occasionally on a whim.

For example, automatic rice pounding machines that use water flow and rice husk shelling machines... these already exist in this era, so Jiang Yizhou used very little merit to exchange for an improved version.

All these make Zhang Ni very excited and she never gets tired of them.

She also passed the information back to Carpenter Zhang and others, and then promoted it out.

Just like the waterwheel, it can benefit more people and gain more merits, but the amount of merits is much less than that of the waterwheel.

Seeing that Zhang Ni almost hit Jiang Yizhou, Wei Ke subconsciously dodged and moved closer to block her.

"Be careful."

Zhang Ni's face flushed, and she couldn't hide her smile: "Miss, Miss, I made it. Automatic thresher, I made it..."

Jiang Yizhou said "oh".

She was mainly thinking that the wheat harvest season would be here soon, and she didn't know how long it would take to thresh the more than 100 acres of wheat manually.

Thinking of the principle of the thresher in the previous life, he asked Xiao Tongzi to retrieve a thresher structure drawing that was closest to the productivity of this era.

It was exchanged for a high price of one hundred and sixty merits, and then given to Zhang Ni to do.

This girl actually managed to do it in just three or four days?

Jiang Yizhou said happily: "Okay, I'll go and take a look."

Zhang Ni demonstrated it herself.

Because there is no electric motor, the wheel can only be turned manually to drive the wooden teeth to rotate.

One side is the feed port, the other side is the discharge port, and there is an air cavity in the middle.

Sweep the wheat ears twice at the feeding port, and all the wheat grains will fall off. The discharge port will basically have complete wheat grains without even any residue.

Of course, we don’t have wheat ears to try it on now, so we tried it with tree branches, and we can basically see that the effect is very good.

Jiang Yizhou is still very confident in the thresher produced by his system.

She felt that this product would become a big hit, even more popular than the water truck.

After all, water wheels can only be used near rivers and are expensive, so they are usually purchased collectively by landlords or several households.

But this thresher is different. It only requires very little wood. Zhang Ni can make one by herself in two or three days, and the cost is at most one or two taels of silver.

The price is three or four taels of silver, so there will definitely be a lot of people buying it.
