Lady of the Lord From the East

Chapter 127

In February, the wheat planted in the fields began to turn green one after another. In March, the earth rejuvenated, and the green wheat seedlings occupied a large number of fields. Swaying, waiting for the peasants to pour the important rejuvenation water for them.

The irrigation system in Sardinson County was fully repaired as early as last year. There are carefully dug canals scattered all over the fields of the plain. Going back and forth between the river and the fields saves time and effort. At this time, no one remembers the hard work of digging the canal before. I just felt that it was a wise decision to build the canal after listening to the suggestion.

In the manor, most of the serfs are busy irrigating the wheat fields. After the irrigation is completed, they will start a new season of spring plowing, while the serfs who were previously selected to plant new crops do not need to take care of the rejuvenation because there is no winter wheat in the fields. The wheat, now one step ahead of the others, has begun to clean up the fields and prepare to sow and raise seedlings.

Steward George is the person in charge of supervising the serfs. Because their hostess are getting bigger and bigger now, it is no longer suitable to go out and instruct the serfs to plant new food crops, so George has been assigned the task of supervision and has already learned about planting in advance. As a method, he needs to watch the serfs plant all the corn, sweet potatoes, and potatoes that they sent. If there is any problem that cannot be solved, he needs to go to the castle to ask Wei Wei for help. Of course, so far, they have not encountered any problems. on such trouble.

And compared to the trouble with planting, George is more worried about the crowds who run to these fields from time to time to watch the excitement. He looks at those people with vigilant eyes, always worried that these people will take advantage of them for not paying attention. Steal seeds from the ground.

You know, there are other things to say, the sweet potato is very big, and the seeds are food, and you can eat anyone you dig out.

George could not wait to tell his mistress that she should send soldiers to guard these fields.

Of course, although he didn't do it in the end, it was because he felt that it was a bit of a fuss to keep the soldiers guarding - he was going to arrange for a few serfs to guard the fields every night with himself.

Of course, the serfs and freedmen who came to watch didn't have any bad intentions. Well, although some of them did think so, this is the field of the earl's family. Who dares to steal here? Even if it's just a seed if it is found, it will be caught and put in jail, okay?

In the past, when everyone was hungry, they might steal food from the fields because they were too hungry, but now each of them can fill their stomachs. In the past two years, no one has been hungry anymore. Take something for an adventure, even if they're a high-yielding crop you've never seen before.

From the countess' generous distribution of seeds to everyone, we know that these crops can be planted by others sooner or later, so they don't need to take risks at all, okay?

And now most people are also watching, they have been growing wheat for a long time, whether it is wheat, rye, barley or oats are their main sources of food, and it is obvious that they are so quick to accept new food crops they have not seen before It is impractical, even if those crops seem very productive, but whether they are filling, delicious, and whether they are good to grow is a mystery, no one knows.

So people don't talk about it they all hope to understand how these new crops are grown first, and whether the final harvest is as high-yield as they have heard, so the serfs and free people whose fields are nearby will move at every turn. The reason for running to these fields is because they are observing and learning how to plant.
