A World (Earth) Time: December 5, 2010 A.D. B World Time: May 30, 3210 in the continental calendar.

Han Empire, Right Zhengyang County, Taikang Township, Shiting Village.

"Proprietor, this season's wheat has been tax-exempt according to your wishes, and the people are ......very happy," said the steward Shui Yi with a smile.

"Very good, we didn't bother with this season's crop at all, and it was useless. Su Ze smiled and nodded. Of course, this Su Xue is a "clone", but this kind of doppelganger built by the Force is no different from the main body at all, it can be said that it is exactly the same, and even the gods of the lower rank cannot be recognized.

Although those gods of the main god rank (powerful divine power) have this ability, but that great god would be so bored to pay attention to a small Billy nobleman?

Now is the time when the winter wheat is ripe, because Su Ze has brought a group of people back with him. In addition to building the territory, Su Xue also arranged for them to help harvest grain, and even the structures he bought were also sent out. Due to the addition of these additional laborers. So the wheat in his territory was harvested quickly.

Yesterday was the end of the harvest, and the wheat was planted by the people of the Lord. If Su Ze didn't come, they would have to pay taxes to the government. Since Su Xue is now divided here as a lord by Emperor Lao'er, the taxes here should naturally be transferred to him. However, according to the rules of the Great Han, Su Xue could not get this season's harvest, because this batch of wheat was planted before he was divided here, so it should naturally belong to the imperial government.

Of course, this rule is not strictly enforced in remote areas, and it can be collected or not. After all, the agricultural tax of Dahan is very low, and the traditional thirty tax is one, and dozens of hectares of land cannot be collected much. Besides, Dahan's agricultural technology is very developed, and he can't eat up the grain every year, so he doesn't care about this little thing at all. It was already difficult for the nobles to be assigned to remote areas, so the Han royal family didn't care about them taking advantage of this little advantage.

In order to sell it well, the county magistrate also made a favor and transferred the right to expropriate this batch of wheat to Su Ze.

However, in order to buy the hearts of the people, Su Xue exempted this batch of taxes.

Here in Dahan, the agricultural tax is fixed, and the grain crop is 30 tax 1, which can only be low but not high. Although the fiefdoms of the nobility are all in their own hands, the tax rate of industry and commerce can be adjusted by themselves. But the agricultural tax is a minefield, and it must not be changed by itself, otherwise it will be impeached by the imperial historians of Lantai.

Su Ze now has 63 acres of 40 acres of land. Among them, the cultivated land is about 45 hectares, and the wheat cultivation is only about a dozen hectares. He felt that he couldn't collect much tax on this little land, so he simply exempted this season's harvest and regarded it as a welcome gift for the new lord.

Besides, Su Ze has just made a windfall in the blessed land of Africa, how can he take this little money in his eyes?

Not only was he exempt from taxes, but he also sent his men hired from Xinju to help, which made the local people very happy, at least the first impression was good. Most people felt that this new lord was not the kind of lord who was "three feet tall".

................................................................................................

The climate of Youzhengyang County is relatively warm, belongs to the temperate oceanic climate, and China's South China is almost the same, if according to Chinese customs, basically can ensure that the second crop a year, if you spend a little thought, three crops a year is not a problem.

However, it is probably due to the fact that the farming habits of the Han Empire are very different from those of Earth China. As we all know, traditional Chinese agriculture pays attention to "intensive cultivation", and it is eager to plant a piece of land in turns. This habit is caused by more people and less land, and if you don't do this, you can't feed people.

The advantage of this method of farming is that the yield is high, but the disadvantages are great, firstly, the cultivator is tired to death, and secondly, because of the non-stop farming, after a few years, the fertility of the land will be greatly degraded. In the long run, this type of farming is extremely uneconomical.

The Han Empire, on the other hand, was sparsely populated and there was no shortage of land, so there was no need to use such destructive cultivation methods. In addition, he was later influenced by the elves, and paid more attention to natural harmony. Therefore, the land of the Han Empire now adopts a rotation system of four, six or more nurseries, which is relatively close to the planting methods in Europe and the United States.

Usually one is wheat, one is rice, one is vegetables, grains or cotton and linen, one is fallow, leguminous pasture is planted, and livestock are grazing.

Although Su Ze's old house is in the countryside, he has never farmed, and he only has a conceptual understanding of agriculture, and it is also like "intensive cultivation".

If you don't understand it, you have to listen to the experts. Fortunately, Su Xue was smart at the time, and among the three stewards hired, there was Shuiyi (word line) who was good at agriculture. This Mr. Agricultural Scientist is a Level 5 Nature Cultivator, not only can he farm, but he also has to fight with weapons, and he will not pull his hind legs, which is much more powerful than his counterparts on Earth.

“...... Proprietors. During this time, I learned a little about the meteorology, soil and other conditions of this place. According to the actual conditions of the territory, I have formulated an agricultural development plan for the future territory, and you will see if there are any changes that need to be made......" Now, the agricultural scientist handed Su Ze a thick stack of plans.

"......" Su Xue took it and flipped it over, and he was a little dizzy.

This proposal is at least 100,000 words, and there are many illustrations and diagrams, which can be described as a very good plan. But...... Where does Su Ze know these things?

He looked at it casually and nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, I'm a layman here, and I'll leave the agricultural affairs to you." But even as a layman, I can see that this proposal is very well done. Whatever you need, just bring it up, and as long as it can be done, I'll try to solve it......"

Don't use suspicious people, don't suspect people. People are experts, and as a layman, they don't have much to do.

"Thank you for your trust, please rest assured. I will definitely do my best to build my skills well!" Although the relationship between us is still in the run-in stage, at least the initial impression is still very good.

Su Ze looked at the introduction of the planting ratio on the plan, thought for a while and said: "Okay, uh, let me make a few suggestions, there is no medicine field in this plan, I am going to plant some medicines, it is best to divide a piece to grow medicinal herbs." In addition, the area under cultivation of food crops could be reduced. As long as there is more food than half of the population needs in capability, it is enough. I'm like a variety of vegetables, like mushrooms, ......."

He doesn't understand the details and techniques of agriculture, but he can still give some advice on the macro direction.

Shui Yi thought for a while and said, "Well, the proprietor is right, the profit of grain is not too high. This plan is only a preliminary plan, and I will revise it as you wish, but if you plan to grow that kind of herbs and vegetables, if it is a mushroom, you don't need to occupy arable land at all, and the forest and hills can be used to grow ......"

Su Xue smiled and said: "Well, that's good, I'll make a list for you tomorrow, indicating the type and how much you need, and you can modify it according to the above content......" This matter, and discuss it with Fan Dongliu.

"Okay, then I'll quit under the ......" Shui Yi bowed and retreated.

..........................................................................................

The agricultural affairs were temporarily over, and Su Xue focused on personnel recruitment again.

The population of Su Ze's current territory is mainly composed of several parts.

First of all, there are 123 local residents, including 123 people who are old and young who cannot work, and only 90 of them are excluded.

Then there are 20 craftsmen and 100 farmers recruited from Xinluo, as well as 10 guards and 10 servants, cooks, grooms, and other support staff. However, among the 120 laborers, there are more than 100 foreign races, and 14 are Han talents. However, there is an advantage to the alien subordinates, that is, they sign long-term contracts, that is, the kind that are indefinite. This contract is valid as long as there is no serious conflict in the relationship between the parties.

And the Han people are all considered "gods" here, and the lowest are free people, and the contract with the lord cannot exceed ten years at most, and the contract can be renewed when it expires. If you want to get the loyalty and support of these Han people. It's not an easy task. Moreover, their awareness of human rights is very strong, and if the lord goes too far, even if the contract does not expire, it will cause a lawsuit. Besides, now is the time when there is a shortage of people everywhere, many new territories are recruiting, and the treatment here is not good, so people vote with their feet and run away.

Therefore, Su Ze's current situation can be regarded as having advantages and disadvantages.

63 hectares of arable land plus the same amount of non-arable land add up to 127 hectares, which is close to 171 hectares of land in the unit of earth. If it is built, the manpower in the early 200s will not be enough at all.

"Long Tai, how is the recruitment situation now?" asked Su Ze to another steward, Ke Yizheng (the word Long Tai).

Ke Yizheng smiled bitterly: "Back to the owner, now that the empire is in short supply, it is really difficult to find people everywhere...... As of yesterday, only 5 farmers have been recruited, two families, and now they have moved to the territory......"

Su Ze shook his head, he was also helpless about it, so he said, "Hey, forget it...... You don't have to think much about this, just go and post the task at the office. Now you are mainly managing the existing lords well, and there are not so many people in agriculture who are practical. I'm going to build a few factories, and you're going to select some of the existing people and prepare to turn them into workers. ”

"Yes, proprietor, but, what factory are you going to open?" Ke Yizheng also breathed a sigh of relief, he couldn't sleep well during this time in order to find someone.

"Well, let's build a canning factory and a hardware factory first, and a food factory, the scale doesn't need to be too ......large," Su Ze thought about it and said.

"The proprietor, the food factory knows, but what are these canning factories and hardware factories...... Ke Yizheng was stunned for a long time and asked curiously.

"Oh, this, I'll explain it to you......" Su Xue patted his head. Only then did he remember that the difference in vocabulary between the two places, and the "hardware" here did not mean the earth at all. And while there is something like "canned" here, there is no word "canned" either.
