After fleeing famine, I have thousands of acres of fertile land

"Grandpa Village Head, if I meet the right person, I will definitely not forget the people in this village." Ye Qing said sincerely.

The villagers were busy, so Ye Qing invited people from Ji Village to help build the house. Tietou helped supervise the construction and buy materials.

The workshop designed by Ye Qing was a large house with two entrances. There were houses built on all four sides in front, and there were no partitions between the houses.

The design at the back is the same, but it is designed as a warehouse that can store several thousand kilograms of vermicelli.

A special drying area was designed, and two wells were dug, and the ground was paved with stone slabs.

The entire workshop covers an area of ​​two acres, and more than 30 people were hired to help build the house.

Tietou had been to the provincial capital several times and had become well-trained. He was in charge of the materials and construction of the entire house.

Ye Xuan is in charge of the production of vermicelli in the backyard of the meeting hall. He got custom-made insoles in the city last time, which raised his shorter legs. As long as he doesn't go up the mountain and walks on flat ground, no one can tell there is any problem unless he looks closely.

Ye Xuan was very grateful to Ye Qing because he was actually very self-conscious about his leg. Now that he gets paid every month and his leg problem is not noticeable, he feels more open-minded.

Someone was watching over the workshop, so Ye Qing went to the mountains to work. Compared to the workshop, she preferred studying plants.

A lot of trees were cut down on the mountain last winter, and there was also new forest land that was purchased and some seedlings were missing. She counted what trees to buy based on the terrain.

You should also buy some fruit trees, including hawthorn trees and plum trees.

Last year, the shopkeeper who sold trees came to Wuan City and went to the village first to let the villagers choose first.

This year, I brought a lot of hardwood species and fruit trees. I know the village needs a lot, so I have signed a cooperation agreement and come every year.

And the land that Ye Qingxin bought also needs to be plowed over again.

The plows that the village brought back from Yangcheng were officially put on sale. They plowed a few acres of land and found that they were indeed better than traditional plows.

The nearby villages heard about it, especially Ji Village, and many people from their village came to work.

Xu Lizheng made a special trip for this matter. Ji Village was not as wealthy as Kaoshan Village, so several families pooled together to buy a bunch of grass and planted the land first.

The reputation of the improved plow in the village spread further and further, and the village next to the mountain became well-known. It not only had charcoal, but also had two students in a family.

The young men and women in Kaoshan Village are sought after by the surrounding villages. Kaoshan Village is the richest village within a dozen miles.

The first cow our family bought became pregnant with a calf last year, and now its belly is frighteningly big.

Ye Lao Da counted the days and it was only these two days. At night, Ye Lao Da slept on a cart next to the cowshed, and would get up as soon as there was any movement.

A cow is worth seven or eight taels of silver, and it can work for the family all year round, making it an important member of the family.

Ye Qing watched Boss Ye walking back with his bedding in his arms, and followed him to the backyard.

Looking at Boss Ye making the bedding, he asked distressedly, "Is Dad cold at night?"

Ye Qing felt warm at heart when he saw his daughter's caring look.

"It's not cold. The blanket is thick and warm. Go back to sleep. You have to get up early tomorrow."

Ye Qing followed the advice and went back. After a tiring day, he took a hot bath and lay down on the bed to sleep comfortably.

I was sleeping soundly in the middle of the night when I was woken up by the sound of people walking back and forth in the yard. It sounded like someone was going to the kitchen.

Ye Qing shouted, "Who's outside?"

"Qingya, it's me. Go to sleep quickly. The cow is giving birth." Ye Dalang's voice came in.

Ye Qing became alert. She had never seen a cow give birth to a calf before, so she put on her clothes and went to the backyard to help.

Old Man Ye and Mrs. Li were both in the backyard, while Mrs. Zhou was boiling water in the kitchen and preparing food for the cows so that they would have the strength to give birth.

Li saw Ye Qing coming over and said, "Qingya, stand in front and watch the cows. If there is nothing to eat, add some."

Li didn't want Ye Qing to see it, for fear of scaring her.

Ye Qing watched the cow eat while accumulating strength to give birth to a calf.

Ye Qing was nervous and whispered "Come on!" He also fed some of the food Zhou brought to the cow.

After waiting for another quarter of an hour, Mrs. Li exclaimed, "It's born. The calf's head is out."

Ye Qing wanted to go around to take a look, but Li glared at him. He could only wait until the calf was fully born before taking a look.

The cow slightly spread her hind legs and squatted, exerting all her strength, and a calf wrapped in a bloody fetal sac fell to the ground.

After the calf landed, it could not walk immediately, but lay quietly on the ground.

Its two little ears moved and its little mouth chewed subconsciously. Because of the harassment from the blood-thirsty flying insects, the calf kept shaking its head. Although it was still wrapped in the placenta, it could feel the discomfort.

The cow fell exhausted to the ground, and when she caught her breath a little, she lowered her head, kissed the calf lovingly, and then used her tongue to slowly lick the afterbirth off the calf's body.

The calf lay there for a while, then tried to stand up. It stretched its head and used its front two legs to support its front half, then its back two legs, and finally lifted its weak body off the ground after swaying.

Unfortunately, because its body was too weak, as soon as one front leg took a step forward, the other front leg was unable to support the entire body on its own.

The calf leans forward with its front legs bent in a kneeling position, but its head is tilted in the other direction.

Although the calf failed to stand up the first time, it did not give up. After resting on the ground for a while, it started the second challenge.

Ye Qing was terrified and wanted to help, but was stopped by Li. The calf had to stand up for the first time on its own.

The calf raised its head, bent its two front legs, and exerted force with its hind legs. Its whole body left the ground while swaying, and it began to walk forward.

Unfortunately, due to lack of leg strength, his body fell down again while swaying.

Ye Qing was curious. He heard that a cow has to fall four times before it can stand firmly.

The cow looked at the calf lovingly, but did not come to help. She just watched the calf suffer on its own.

Old Man Ye and Boss Ye couldn't sit still anymore, so they stood up and walked over to watch Xiao Niu struggling.

This process took a while. After trying again and again, the Mavericks were finally able to take two steps steadily.

Now the family is relieved, as long as the cows can stand, they can be kept.

The calf took a few more steps, stood next to the cow, found the milk, and started sucking.

Old Man Ye took his family back to the front yard. It was still dark, so they all went back to sleep.

Ye Qing got up early in the morning, and without taking time to wash up, he went to see the calf first. The calf was already strolling and playing, and when it saw Ye Qing, it mooed twice, as if to say hello.

Breakfast was ready. After eating, Ye Qing planned to visit the workshop first and then go to the mountain to see the newly planted saplings.

I walked out of the door and walked forward. After just a few steps, I saw Ye Xuan running towards me, panting.

Ye Qing's heart tightened. Did something happen in the workshop?

"Brother Ye Xuan, don't run. Let's talk slowly." Ye Qing was worried that Ye Xuan would fall.

Ye Xuan not only did not stop, but also sped up, "Qingya, something happened in the workshop, we are in trouble."
