After I became a general, I went back to my hometown to farm

◎If you want to solve the legacy problems of the mountain people, you still like to tease Brother Cheng. ◎

In the next few days, Gu Zeyu took care of the vegetable field in the backyard and planted some green onions, as well as spinach, lettuce, loofah, peppers, and coriander. Anyway, he planted some seeds. After all, the vegetable field is quite large.

After the plants were full, Gu Zeyu watered them a few times and didn't care about them. Whether they can survive or not depends on God's will.

However, spring is the best time to grow vegetables. Most of the vegetable seeds are very tenacious, but within ten days, they poke their heads out of the soil, revealing small shoots.

Gu Zeyu was also about to start reclaiming the land, and he just received a reply. The fellow from Qiushui Town was called Li Tong. He saw in the letter that he was looking for a job for his uncle and cousin from the mountains. The salary was generous and the time was short. Up to half a month.

Thirty Wen a day for one person, including food and lodging.Half a tael of silver is enough for half a month, which is too much, and it only costs twenty yuan a day to carry sacks in the town.

Li Tongxin cover - cheat - 55 yuan package micro: ly. x7. 7 Remark 51539 Laiyi 09 is very entangled. He has been back to his hometown for several years. It is not that he has not thought about making his mother's relatives into good citizens, but he has no choice. Back then his mother was able to marry his father. Or because he pretended to be a refugee in exile here.

Because of her beauty, she fell in love with her father at first sight, and she would not marry a non-qing.

My mother later revealed her true identity as a descendant of the mountain people, but my father could only ask the village head to let my mother settle in the house.

He finally agreed. It is spring now, but the food is almost eaten, and the food cultivated will not be harvested until autumn. It would be best if he could earn some money and buy more food during this time.

Li Tong was going to take his uncle and cousin to take advantage of the moonlight to take a detour to Gujia Village. It happened that Gu Zeyu's [-]-acre land was near Xiaohuan Mountain, which was some distance away from the land of the villagers. It's safe to go to Xiaohuan Mountain.

As long as you avoid the town and come to the village, the villagers will not know that they are mountain people. In fact, you can go to the town. How can ordinary people see the difference between mountain people and villagers?It's just that the mountain people are afraid of being arrested because of their black history in the past, so they dare not show up in towns, counties, or any place where officials are haunted.

For living, if there are not many people, you can still live in Gu Zeyu's house, because Gu Zeyu's house has two rooms, both of which are spacious, and it is not a problem to accommodate five people in one room.

No matter how bad it is, I can share a room with Gu Zeyu, and I can sleep in a crowded room for only half a month.

After Gu Zeyu received Li Tong's letter, Gu Zeyu went to the town to buy a lot of grain, some quilts, two cows, and some tools for land reclamation. Those iron products still cost a lot of money. A plow is the most practical thing, and then there is a hoe.

In addition, Gu Zeyu visited the village head's house again, and said that he wanted to pay people in the village to help plow the land. It would be better if the family was in difficulty and there were many males and little land. It would take about half a month to hire them.

When the village chief Gu Zhengming heard this, he was happy at first, but then he became sad. Gu Zeyu's family has too much land. There are many men in the village and few land, but at most ten people can be gathered together. Sometimes my own land has to be plowed, so I don't have time to help Gu Zeyu plow the land.

He asked the price again.Gu Zeyu made a comparison of three.The village head was surprised, thirty yuan a day, this price is okay.

The village chief promised him that he could find ten people, but he felt that five hundred acres of land would not be enough for ten people, because Gu Zeyu wanted to open up wasteland, and the land must be very hard and difficult to cultivate.

When the village head asked, he felt that there were not enough people.

Gu Zeyu said that he also found another person from Qiushui Town. He had a brother who had served as a soldier in Qiushui Town. Their village was relatively poor, and there were some middle-aged men who wanted to find work and were willing to come here to give He cultivated the land.

When the village chief saw the fertile water flowing into other people's fields, he looked very sorry, but there were only less than 150 households in his village, and there were only about [-] people including children. Sometimes I can't take care of myself.

Gu Zeyu said again: "Village Chief, I invite relatives of my comrades-in-arms to come into the village to help me reclaim the land. Then they will live in my house, and they will be less busy and work better. They should not disturb the villagers. "

The village chief said: "It's okay, anyway, your land is far away from the villager's land. It's okay, no one in the village will go there."

Gu Zeyu felt relieved, and soon received sweet potatoes and potatoes from Yucheng.

He just urged Li Tong to bring someone here.

Li Tong came to Gujia Village with his uncle and cousin that day, and Gu Zeyu packed a dozen dishes from the town to cleanse them up. The dozen men ate a lively meal and drank some wine. Crying and laughing unconsciously, the sadness of being a mountain dweller is all drinking and uttering the truth.

In fact, my uncle is already the second generation of mountain people, and my cousin is the third generation of mountain people. My uncle's parents may have had a record with the government, but my uncle and my cousin are proper black households. No one even knows about them. They hide in a remote mountainous area. It's been decades, but I don't have an identity certificate when I think about it, so I feel empty and scared.

They couldn't think of a way to turn themselves into good citizens, and those with status and household registration could only hide.

But after all, I don't want to go on like this for the rest of my life. At this moment, the sadness comes from my heart, and I feel that life is hopeless.

Gu Zeyu didn't know how to change the household registration into a good citizen. He thought, there must be a lot of black household mountain people like this. They reproduced and their number gradually increased. Even if the first generation of mountain people was guilty, but The children of the next second generation seem to be born with original sin, and they can only be black households all their lives. There is nothing to prove that they have been in this world.

Gu Zeyu waited for these mountain people to fall asleep, then talked with Li Tong again, and finally proposed a solution, that is, to write a letter to General Wei Yan, asking if these mountain people can be sent to serve as soldiers for three to five years Yes, you can give them a lower salary in exchange for a normal status and a household registration.

This can also solve the problem of difficult conscription.Besides, most of the mountain people are hard-working, so for the status of a normal commoner, they must do their best.

Li Tong also agreed that it might be possible, so he also wrote a letter, describing the difficult situation of the mountain people, who often did not have enough food and clothing to keep warm, and did not even have a tile to cover their heads. Just want to have a civilian status.

After writing all the letters, the two fell asleep.

The next day, these men had a full meal and excitedly went to reclaim the land. In fact, the hoes and plows that Gu Zeyu bought were not enough for these dozen people. Some of them brought their own hoes, so that the enough.

Gu Zeyu invited another dozen or so villagers to work. There was no conflict when the two groups met. Cultivating the land is a laborious task, and they are all doing it with their arms around. I work slowly, so when I see one party surpassing me, I must work harder to surpass that party.

The land here is not hard, because it has only rained a few days ago, and the soil is soft and easy to cultivate. One Chinese character can be cultivated for half an acre of land after a day of hard work.

There are about 30 men who can reclaim half of the land in half a month.

Gu Zeyu didn't plan to plant all the [-] acres of land with grain, because it was really difficult to plant, and it would be a problem to harvest after planting. There was a lot of wheat planted, and many people were needed to harvest it, which was very troublesome.

He decided to use the other half of the land to plant some fruit trees. Fruit trees are easier to take care of, and there is no need to rush to harvest, and it usually takes a year or two for newly planted fruit trees to bear fruit, so he gave Gu Zeyu a buffer period.

Prepare to plant two hundred acres of wheat, five acres of potatoes, and ten acres of sweet potatoes.

The rest of the land is full of fruit trees.

Spring is the time to start struggling, and the plan for a year lies in spring.

Gu Zeyu also started to struggle. He didn't become an idle shopkeeper, he left everything to the hired people. He is also a man, and he took the lead in reclaiming the land by himself. I broke through a piece of land with a hoe, and I didn't feel tired. I worked very hard. I was sweating a lot all morning.

The people in the village are about to plow the land at this time. If the soil is loosened, the seedlings or seeds planted will grow better. The big guys dare not perfuse the land, which is the guarantee of food.

There are also people in the village who heard some gossip about Gu Zeyu hiring people to reclaim the land. For example, he hired about 15 men, and each person worked for [-] yuan a day. months, it would have cost [-] taels of silver, but Gu Zeyu didn't feel distressed at all, it seems that the family has a deep family background.

Some people also said that Gu Zeyu also provided meals for the group of men from outside. Although they ate coarse grains, they could eat a meal of meat in three days if they were full, and the food was okay.

The other person retorted that the food expenses were paid by their own. Gu Zeyu hired a strong woman from the village to help because he couldn't cook. Gu Zeyu just paid for the cooking expenses.

Gu Zeyu knew about these gossips, but he didn't care, as long as no one came to him to gossip.

Gu Zeyu is busy cultivating the land, so he doesn't have time to worry about what others say.

In the meantime, there was good news. On the second day after Li Tong and the others came, Gu Zeyu learned about Gu Gang's news from him. He was indeed hiding in Qiushui Town, the village next door to his wife's hometown, and he knew where to hide. suspect.

So Gu Zeyu passed the news to Fatty Liu, that man was a ruthless character, he tied him up in the dark that day, demanded money after a lesson, and chopped off his hands and feet if he couldn't pay it back, scaring the old guy enough , Zaguomaitie scraped together 100 taels of silver, and the extra 20 taels were the interest for running overdue for these 20 days.

Over there, Fatty Liu wondered whether he should return the 50 taels that Gu Zeyu gave him at that time. After inquiring that Gu Zeyu had been to the county government a while ago, he had a good relationship with Chu Yun over there. As for the general, this is not to be offended, so he sent his younger brother to send the 50 taels back.

Gu Zeyu has been busy with the land for the past half month, and he has not met Brother Cheng a few times, and his family is also busy with farming, but because of the lack of land, it will be almost enough after five days of busy work.

Every time I meet Brother Cheng, I deliver food to my father and mother in the field, or some mung bean soup. Brother Cheng works slowly, and his hands will turn red after a long time of work. His father and mother love him dearly. Take him away from time to time and let him go home to cook.

Most of the time when the two met, someone else was present, but Gu Zeyu still greeted Brother Cheng, and when he was not paying attention, he would playfully open the basket to see what Brother Cheng was cooking.

When brother Cheng is angry, he will ask for mercy and give him some orange candies.

Then he ran away with a smile.
