Traveling through time as a peasant girl to turn things around

Chapter 890: Wutong Village’s Good Food Prospects

After dawn, the people in Wutong Village ate early and began to harvest crops. The crops grew and matured in three months in the first quarter. The men took their sickles and shouldered their burdens and pulled ox carts to the fields.

Ye Heng and the young men drove a combine harvester to harvest and thresh the large fields, while the women were busy mending sacks and carrying them to the fields.

The children help the adults with work during the holidays, running around.

Old Mrs. Li brought a few older women to cook, and it was a big pot meal.

Meat-braised noodles, Guoguo bought a noodle press, which is simple and fast.

The busy harvest scene! Ye Di brought Lu Xi to help with the work. The small plots still had to be harvested manually because machines could not enter.

The fields are a scene of busy harvest!

At the artillery camp, the soldiers had all gone to the fields. People were working everywhere, laughing and chatting. "What a wonderful life! This is the life we've all been waiting for!" Another soldier said, "Yes, we in Dayan want this wonderful life, hahaha." The soldiers chatted and laughed, not stopping their work, busily harvesting the rice. People imagined the white, fragrant rice...

In the barracks village, most of the girls and boys were teenagers, busy harvesting the crops. There were also quite a few adults, many soldiers had brought their families with them to settle down here. The adults helped with the work the children couldn't finish, and soon the first harvest of the year's grain was in the granary.

It's time to start sowing, planting rice seedlings, and planting the second crop. Guoguo realized that even this wasn't enough, so he suggested planting two crops a year, resting the land in between or planting other crops. Farming also requires careful attention, and the soil needs to be fertilized and maintained. Wood ash, chicken manure, pig manure, and other good things are all good. When applied to the soil and plowed, the yield will be higher.

The second crop was quickly planted, and water flowed into the fields. The rice began to grow vigorously! Ye Di stood at the edge of the field, looking at the green rice seedlings with Ye Heng, and said with a smile that the people of Dayan were no longer hungry. Ye Heng looked ahead, "Well, not only is the grain yield high, but we can also grow more. This place will slowly become Dayan's granary!"

Ye Di: "Well, Jiangnan will become a land of fish and rice!" "In recent years, the people of Dayan have no problem with food and drink. Border trade also sells grain, which shows that there is enough food for the people of Dayan." Ye Di said with a smile, "Yes. Let's go back to the capital during the New Year and ask the Ministry of Revenue to check on the livelihood issues of the people across the country!"

Ye Heng: "Well. It's time to ask and take a look. An Yi has been here for so many years, we should also investigate. I don't have any secret guards under my command, so you can arrange it, my royal brother." "Okay, I'll write a letter to Dong Lin."

Ye Heng added, "The ships built by the Ministry of War over the past two years should be made available to the people. Water transportation should be opened up." "Great! This will further promote the development of logistics!"

The two brothers were discussing state affairs. Although they were far away from the court, they were still worried about the Great Yan Kingdom!

The imperial treasure's river transport had finally opened. Starting from the southeast coast, heading south to the South China Sea, passing through Hanhai City and Yangzhou City, and heading west to Antai Prefecture, the waterway was much faster! Starting from the southeast coast and heading north, it reached the East China Sea, Duanping Prefecture, Chengzhongcheng, Zhongzhou Prefecture, and even reached the northernmost Binzhou Prefecture, almost encompassing most of the outer lands of the Great Yan Kingdom.

The water transportation is operated by the Ministry of Revenue, the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Works, and the Emperor. The water transportation is managed by the Emperor's treasure. The Ministry of Revenue has contributed more manpower. The trial operation will start today, creating an unprecedented glory for Dayan!
