After rebirth, I became a national teacher
Chapter 606
But Chen Qingzhu was not anxious about it.
Her current qualifications are vastly different from when she was just reborn, and she is very content.
What's more, once the land is divided and the millions of people under her rule have had a chance to recuperate, she will surely gain a huge amount of merit again.
More than half a year has passed in a flash.
In a blink of an eye, it is the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month, which is already the Little New Year.
In a mountain village in Jinhua Prefecture, 37-year-old Chai Xingjia and three strong laborers from the same village were carrying two large baskets full of New Year's goods on shoulder poles and rushing home.
Even in the south, this winter is still very cold, and the cold wind blowing on the face feels like a knife.
But when Chai Xing's family looked at the New Year's goods they had carried, and thought about the expressions of the old and young at home when they saw these things when they returned home, they felt extremely excited.
A year ago, they never thought they would have such a good life today.
Now, because of the grace of the gods, all the fields of the wealthy families in the county have been distributed to the common people like them.
Every household has at least ten acres of land.
With so much land, except for the 20% tax paid to the government, the rest belonged to them.
The wheat, soybeans, etc. harvested in the spring, except for a 20% tax, are all theirs.
After two harvests, every household had two to three thousand kilograms of grain stored.
Looking at the golden wheat and rice, I feel so at ease.
In addition to these grains, there are also sweet potatoes that the God ordered everyone to plant.
The villagers were reluctant to plant it at first, but when they heard that it was brought back specially by the deity and there was a government decree to force them to do so, they reluctantly started planting it.
When it comes to harvest time, everyone realizes how good this thing is.
Dig under the sweet potato vine and you'll find a bunch of fist-sized sweet potatoes.
From one acre of land, we harvested more than two thousand kilograms!
It’s as much as the harvest from ten acres of land planted with other crops!
Not only is the output high, but this thing is also delicious and filling.
It is sweet and powdery when cooked.
Mixing it with rice not only saves rice, but also makes it sweet, fragrant and delicious.
Originally, even if they were given land and had plenty of food at home, no one dared to eat too much.
But since the sweet potatoes were harvested, everyone can finally feel at ease.
With such high-yield sweet potatoes, do they still need to worry about food shortages?
From then on, everyone ate happily every meal and had a full belly. After two months, everyone in the village, young and old, men, women, and children, had gained weight, which looked so festive.
When people are full, they will naturally have other thoughts.
Now, as the Chinese New Year is approaching, many people in the village have picked up some grain to sell in the county, intending to exchange it for some money to buy some New Year goods to celebrate the New Year well.
The four of them carried New Year's goods and walked home in big strides, chatting happily.
As they walked, an oil-paper package in Chai Xing's basket fell out from the pile of New Year's goods.
He was walking in front, so the three people behind him naturally saw him.
"Brother Xing, something fell!"
Chai Xingjia immediately stopped to pick it up, and the other three people then noticed the red paper with the shop pattern printed on it on the oil paper package.
"Oh, Brother Xing is so rich that he actually went to He Xiang Zhai to buy cakes!"
The man who was a few years younger than Chai Xingjia immediately started to tease him.
It's no wonder they made a fuss, the main reason was that He Xiang Zhai was a famous dim sum shop in the county, and just a bag of dim sum would cost dozens of coins, which the villagers like them couldn't afford!
Chai Xingjia put the oil-paper bag into his arms, touched his head and smiled innocently:
"Hehe, isn't it that my wife is pregnant and has no appetite, so I thought of buying her some preserved fruits to stimulate her appetite!"
"Brother Xing is really generous to his wife! He is a retired soldier after all, he has money!"
Another middle-aged man who was traveling with them joked.
Chai Xingjia's face suddenly turned red:
"Sister Chuntao didn't mind that I was a former soldier, nor did she mind that I was old. She was willing to marry me and even got me pregnant. So I should treat her better!"
This immediately caused the other two to burst into laughter.
Only the youngest man, who looked less than 20 years old, asked expectantly:
"Uncle Xing, does being a soldier really pay that much?"
