  Chapter 13: Busy with land reclamation, Jian Renshou is busy
  with land reclamation. In many time-travel novels, it is a very simple thing. It seems that as long as you give instructions, the people can turn the wasteland into fertile farmland, and the problem of eating is suddenly satisfied.

  Only when Su Ze stood in the field did he realize how difficult it was to open up wasteland in this era.

  This land is full of weeds, the soil is severely hardened, and there are many large and small rocks in the ground.

  Based on the "farming" knowledge he had just acquired in his mind, Su Ze realized how huge a project it was to open up three or four acres of wasteland in ancient times without agricultural machinery.

  Su Ze needed to dig up the entire land and dig out all the roots of the weeds and burn them so that the weeds would not grow over the grain after sowing.

  Next, all the hardened soil must be broken open. A farm tool like a log hammer in Jiu Gu Po's temple is used to break open the hardened soil.

  Then Su Ze also needs to remove all the large and small rocks in the field. Only in this way can he plow the land with plowing oxen.

  In addition, fertilization is required to improve salinity and alkali, and the land needs to be plowed frequently to prevent it from becoming weathered and hardened again.

  The entire Changningwei is close to the sea. The land is severely salinized and desertified, and it cannot store rainwater, so water storage projects need to be built.

  It would be impossible to complete such a huge project within a few months, and the land obtained in this way would be nothing more than the lowest-grade Susukita.

  An adult labor force has been busy for a year, and the cleared land cannot be planted. For the poor people of Changningwei, the whole family can starve to death in this year.

  This is also the reason why the Ming Dynasty provides such generous rewards for land reclamation. It is really not easy to open up wasteland.

  Su Ze picked up the hoe and started to turn over the land. Just after he dug out a big stone from the ground, he heard a familiar sound.

  [Clear wasteland and farmland, farming experience +1, Lv1, 1/100]

  Huh? Does farming experience increase so quickly?
  Su Ze suddenly became energetic. He quickly waved the hoe and cleared out a bunch of weeds again.

  [Create wasteland and remove weeds, farming experience +1, Lv1, 2/100]

  After eating sweet potato porridge in the morning, Su Ze felt full of strength. Seeing the barren land and the rising experience points, Su Ze was full of energy. .

  Here Su Ze was sweating profusely in the wasteland, and over there Lin Liangjun and Lin Cainiang studied all morning before being released by the ninth aunt.

  Lin Liangjun himself couldn't study. After being tortured all morning, he ran home quickly.

  Little Luobotou's home is at the highest point of the guard. He has lived here since the first hundred households. This is the hundred households of Changning Guard, and it is also the watchtower of the guard.

  Little Carrot Head carefully climbed over the wall and was about to get into the house through a dog hole, but suddenly he heard a familiar voice.

  "Where have you gone wild again?"

  Little Luobotou ate too much sweet potato porridge in the morning, and his belly was bulging. He was so frightened that he got stuck in the dog hole.

  Lin Liangjun screamed and kicked his butt with a boot, kicking him out of the dog hole.

  "You murdered your own brother!"

  In fact, the force of this kick was so skillful that Lin Liangjun's butt was not too badly affected. He lay on the ground crying for a long time without shedding a single tear.

  All he saw was a tall and pretty figure standing next to Lin Liangjun.

  "Sister, I was wrong!"

  Seeing the boots raised again, the little carrot head immediately gave up.

  Lin Mojun had just finished the training and took off the disguise on his face. His heroic face was full of anger and he said to Lin Liangjun:
  "We are in Wei Liye every day! Starting tomorrow, you can follow me to the school grounds! Practice with the soldiers!"

  Lin Liangjun immediately got up and said: "Sister! Ninth Aunt asked me to learn to read with her! I just came back from the family temple today!" Lin Mojun

  looked at the little carrot head with doubts. Liangjun immediately said: "Ninth Auntie can vouch for me!"

  Lin Mojun nodded, agreeing with his statement, and then pulled his ear and said:

  "Since you are here to learn how to read, why do you have to climb over the wall and drill holes? Sneaky!" "It hurts, it hurts! Aren't you used to this!"

  Lin Mojun let go of his hand and said to his younger brother:

  "How is the family temple? Is that guy okay?"

  Lin Liangjun Knowing that the guy Lin Mojun was talking about was Su Ze, he quickly said: "Ninth Auntie is very accurate in identifying people. That guy should not be a Japanese pirate." "Whether he is a Japanese pirate or not, we can't take it lightly. Since you learn literacy in the temple, you can't do it on weekdays.

  " Keep an eye on it."

  "By the way, sister, do you know any delicious wild fruits in the mountains?"

  "Digging wild fruits? Are you going to the mountains again?"

  "No, no! That guy Su Ze did it today. A pot of wild fruit porridge, sister, let me tell you, that food is delicious!"

  Recalling the taste of sweet potatoes, Lin Liangjun's mouth started to water.

  Seeing his brother's useless look, Lin Mojun looked at him with disgust and said, "
  I've never heard of wild fruits like this in the mountains, but since you're fine after eating them, you should be able to eat them. What do you think Su Ze wants?" Open up wasteland to grow this kind of wild fruit?"

  Little Carrot Head nodded repeatedly.

  The little carrot head asked again: "Sister, why did you agree to let Su Ze open up wasteland?" "

  Those acres of land were originally thin fields, and they have been abandoned for many years. I'm afraid nothing can be grown." "

  If that guy If we can open up wasteland, we can get a few more acres of farmland in the health center. If we fail to open up wasteland, the health center will have no losses." "

  This kind of land is not easy. This wild fruit tastes so good, so I'm afraid it's not easy to grow, so let him try it. Let's try it."

  Lin Mojun stared at her, and said to Lin Mojun:
  "Since you have eaten other people's wild fruit porridge, you can also help me after you finish your literacy! Our Lin family never owes favors, do you understand?"

  The little carrot head's face suddenly fell. He had to study and farm for a meal.

  deficit! What a shame!

  But seeing my sister like this, if I said I didn't want to learn how to read, I would be dragged to the school field for exercises. Thinking of the terrifying training intensity of the soldiers, I might as well learn how to read.

  When the sun was about to set, Su Ze returned to the family temple with a hoe.

  Looking at the 50/100 experience slot for the "Farming" skill, Su Ze felt full of energy!

  When a skill in "Hundred Scenes" is upgraded to Lv5, you can obtain a passive skill related to the skill and one free attribute point.

  Moreover, as the skill level increases, more skills and knowledge can be obtained, which makes Su Ze full of expectations.

  Under the setting sun, Aunt Ninth was leaning on a wicker chair at the door of her family temple, singing an unknown Taoist song. The melody of this Taoist song was simple and vicissitudes of life, and her hoarse voice gave it a feeling as rich as the earth.

  Aunt Jiu sang, and Lin Cainiang also sang along. With the same melody and lyrics, the little carrot head sang softly and gracefully, as if it were the bright moon that had just risen in the sky.

  Taoist songs were floating in the sky over Changningwei, and crows returning to their nests flew through the air. Their chirping sounds mixed with the sound of the waves crashing on the table, forming a confusing movement.

  The setting sun had not yet set and the bright moon was in the sky. Su Ze couldn't help but said:

  "I don't know how high the blue sky is and how thick the yellow earth is. I

  only see that the cold moon and the warm sun are used to fry people's lives."

  Su Ze suddenly felt a sense of urgency in his heart as time flew by. Don’t waste your time when you travel through time.
