Chapter 11 is in full swing
The people erupted into a burst of cheers, kowtowed to Dong Ce, and then got up and walked towards their own land. Their steps were very urgent, they looked impatient, and their minds were extremely eager. For these farmers, land is their lifeblood!
After each household received their cattle and farm tools yesterday afternoon, Wang Tong took them to work all afternoon to divide the fields of each household. With ten acres as a well, this is the most basic unit, whether it is burned or not burned land, it has been divided. After Dong Ce saw it, he ordered Bai Zhongqi and Bai Shuren to write the names of all the people who were allocated to the fields in the household.
In this way, the basic household registration land system has been established.
Dong Ce and the others climbed a slightly higher hill and watched the people farming in their fields, which was different from the messy ones in the past, and was much more orderly. There were many fires in every place, but the people were burning the wasteland.
Glancing at this hot land, Dong Ce sighed deeply, only feeling a lot lighter. Finally, it is time to start plowing the land and start to get on the right track, and there are examples to follow in this aspect in the future. And these henchmen under his command have also exercised a certain amount of experience.
Today is the third day of the first month of September, according to the calendar of later generations, it is almost October, and the planting time period of winter wheat, "One", "Ben" and "Reading" novels ybdu is in late September and mid to early October, and there is not much time.
He instructed Wang Tong: "On the people's side, you are urging a little, and if you need anything, just ask." Within half a month, the sowing must be completed. ”
"Yes." Wang Tong hurriedly responded.
Dong Ce said to Wang Yu again: "How many catties of fish have you saved now?" ”
"It's a thousand pounds." Wang Yu said with a smile: "I have people take salt and store it in a big wooden barrel, and put it in a cool place in the city without rain." ”
"Hmm." Dong Ce nodded: "With this lot of inventory, don't fish for the time being, and put all the people on the reclamation side." It just so happens that you can use this time to find carpenters and shipwrights, build shipbuilding workshops, and buy large nets. ”
"Yes!"
Dong Ce smiled suddenly: "What are the plans for the fields you have divided?" ”
Shi Jin and the others' military status, Dong Ce was naturally transferred from Shilipu to Panshi Fort early in the morning, and there was no need to tell Liu Ruozai about this matter, he was now a popular man in the Yamen of the Military Preparation Dao, and those lower-level officials also had a good impression of this tall and handsome young officer, so they just had to say a word to the scribes below.
In addition to the open fields and Yongye fields divided according to Dingkou, there are also many official fields divided according to their official ranks, as for the ploughing cattle and various tools, Dong Ce will naturally not shorten them.
When it came to this topic, several people were very excited with their eyes lit up. Wang Tong and Wang Yu and Su Dacheng, who have families, all said that they would move their families here to cultivate the land, and if there were not enough people, they would go to find someone to buy a few slaves and maids. Shi Jin Wang Hun, who was not married, directly said that he wanted to buy slaves and maids to farm.
With a large number of fields, official bodies, and slaves and maids, there will be houses to be divided in the near future, and it seems that a family of officers is about to take shape. They are full of longing and hope for their future.
And these officer families are incorporated into their own system.
When Dong Ce saw their excited expressions, he also felt something in his heart - it was unrealistic to expect others to follow you to death without complaint or regret, even if they were hungry. Only by letting everyone follow you to reap the benefits and go up together can you condense enough centripetal force.
At about noon, a fast horse came from Zhenhe Fort, and the little flag in charge of the order sent an official letter to Dong Ce.
It was issued by the Yamen of the Northern Hebei Military Preparation Road, and a letter from the commander of Yang Gaowei and the garrison officer of Zhenqiang Fort was stamped underneath -- 60 Liu Ming soldiers and their families in Shilipu and their families, a total of 66 military households, were transferred to the establishment of Panshi Fort together with their military registration.
Dong Ce didn't expect that Liu Ruozai would do this so beautifully, and those soldiers were transferred together with their families, which relieved his worries.
After he received the order, he immediately ordered Shi Jin to go to Shilipu to recruit those military households, and now Xu Ruji, the officer of the Shilipu management team, died in battle, and he, the team officer, was temporarily in charge of Shilipu affairs. Before the new appointment, he was the supreme governor of the ten-mile shop, so there was no need to hand over to anyone, just go in and pass the order to execute.
The relocation of military households, and there were sixty-six families at once, this is not a small project.
Before the order, the military households naturally did not dare to disobey the order, but they always had to pack up a lot of things, although they were very poor, but the more so, the more reluctant they were to the bottles and cans in their hands, and the tattered family background. And you always have to say goodbye to your neighbors, and then go to the ancestral grave before you can go on the road, just these few items, I don't know how much time it will take.
Although Dong Ce had already instructed Shi Jin to step up his urging, it was only on the morning of the third day that Dong Ce saw the huge team that was slowly squirming from a distance on the city wall.
Sixty-six military families are like refugees fleeing the famine, both men and women, most of them are in rags, and the men are better, no matter what, there is always a mandarin duck jacket to wear, and the women are much more miserable, and some do not know how many years they have not bought clothes. It's better when I'm in Shilipu, and I can't say that I don't want to go out less, anyway, who can see it even if I'm naked at home? I can't take turns going out and wearing a pair of pants with my man. But this is not always possible, so some women are wrapped in rags inside, and a piece of felt is draped outside, and the whole body is wrapped.
Most of the men carried straps on their shoulders, the two baskets in front and back were full of heavy things, and the women and children also carried a lot of things, so the speed was very slow, and from time to time the procession had to stop for a rest. Fortunately, Shilipu is not far from Dashigu, you can come in the morning or afternoon, and you don't even have to eat on the road, otherwise it will be a great trouble.
It was quiet in the group, and everyone just walked with their heads down. The weather was gloomy today, but there was no sign of rain, and the wind was a little cold, and it swept in from the north, and poured into a mouthful.
Some people have some resentment on their faces, but more of them are numb, Shi Jin rode a horse on the side of the team, wearing a heavy fish-scale iron leaf armor, and the sharp eyes of the goshawk swept over everyone's faces from time to time, and no one dared to look at him. Behind him, however, there was a horse-drawn cart and two ox-carts. At present, the carriage is not new, it can even be said to be quite old, and the material style is very ordinary, which is the common carriage in such small rural places. It's just that the horse is very energetic, and the groom is a middle-aged man in his thirties. The ox-cart was purely a hauler, and the things were piled high on it, and the outside was covered with felt cloth, and I didn't know what was inside.
When this large and silent procession finally reached the edge of the Gan River, everyone was involuntarily stunned, and their mouths were wide open, and their faces were full of disbelief. Then, there was a huge exclamation, and some people shouted in distraction: "God, is this still a big stone gu?" I'm not dazzled, am I? ”
Is this still the original desolate and dilapidated, overgrown, and uninhabited boulder?
To be honest, for this transfer, these military households are full of resentment. Whoever is living a good life -- though not wealthy, or even on the verge of starvation, but always unable to leave his homeland -- is suddenly sent a dispatch to a place where you have never been before.
The reluctance to leave home is an emotion that everyone has, and it is a human instinct - the fear of the future and the reluctance to give up on the existing life. Although the new life may be better than the current life, it is only possible, unless the current life is really unsustainable and it is impossible to live, otherwise, it must be more willing to live like this.
Not to mention that some of them have heard of Dashigu, which is a wasteland, there is no food, no drink, no place to live, let alone farming. Although the name has been changed to Rock Fort now, is it possible to change it?
What are we going to do there? What to eat and drink there? Is it possible to starve us to death?
However, these grievances can only be buried in my heart, and I dare not show them at all.
