Chapter 239 I think I did something stupid

Liu Changqing looked at her standing still and said, "Any questions?"

Xia Wanniang smiled and said, "It's nothing. I was just calculating our harvest."

Liu Changqing was not confused: "We still need to pay taxes every year."

Xia Wanniang had forgotten about this matter: "How much tax should be paid for one acre of land?"

Liu Changqing thought she was afraid of paying too much tax: "It's not much, 30 catties per mu. You still have the rent for tenants, so it won't have much impact."

Xia Wanniang sighed in her heart. Even if she calculated it based on 600 kilograms, after paying the taxes, she would still have more than 500 kilograms of grain left over from one acre of land.

The rice seeds used by Liu Bao's family and Huang's family were provided by their own family. After paying taxes and rent, they had 400 kilograms of grain in stock, which was equivalent to the output of two acres of land without paying any fees.

Liu Changqing's family has five acres of rice fields. The two of them first spread fertilizer on one acre of land, and then started deep plowing.

Xia Wanniang taught him how to use a curved plow. In fact, it didn't require two people to operate it together. The ox just had to walk in front and he could control it from behind.

Liu Changqing felt that he could do it alone, so he let Xia Wanniang go back and rest.

Seeing that he was fine, Xia Wanniang returned to her own land.

Xiao Chiye saw her coming back and handed her the bamboo tube in his hand: "Drink some water."

Xia Wanniang took the bamboo tube and looked at him with a depressed look: "I seem to have done something stupid."

"What's wrong?" Xiao Chiye looked at her puzzledly.

Xia Wanniang told him about the yield of the rice fields.

After hearing this, Xiao Chiye was not so worried: "You forgot that every family uses fertilizers now. Even if the yield is not as high as our rice fields, it will probably be higher than before."

Xia Wanniang's eyes lit up: "What you said seems to make sense."

Xiao Chiye smiled and comforted her: "Don't think too much. Besides, even if something happens, Xu Li is here. He knows what to do."

"What are you talking about?"

When they turned around, they saw Xu Li and Yifeng standing behind them in coarse clothes, looking at them strangely.

Xia Wanniang looked at him with a smile: "He is praising Master Xu for his ability."

Xu Li gave her a look that asked, "Do you think I believe it?"

He turned his head and looked at the field: "You guys are really fast! You have already plowed so much?"

Xiao Chiye looked at his outfit and asked, "Are you planning to give it a try?"

Xu Li raised his chin proudly: "I said I wanted to experience farming."

Xia Wanniang pointed to where Liu Changqing was and said, "It just so happens that our village chief is alone. Since you are here, go and help!"

Xu Li didn't waste any time and took Yifeng to find Liu Changqing.

Liu Changqing was frightened by their actions, but later realized that they did not seem to be joking, so he began to teach them how to turn the soil.

Yifeng was assigned the job of spreading fertilizer, and Xu Li followed Liu Changqing to learn how to use a curved plow.

It was also at this time that Xu Li realized how useful the curved plow given to him by Xia Wanniang was, and how much trouble it could save the people.

No one goes home for lunch at noon. Instead, family members prepare and bring the food to them. After eating, we take a rest and then continue working.

The situation for the Xiao family was even simpler. Xia Wanniang went home and took out a lot of the dishes that she had exchanged before from the space.

Liu Changqing was alone, so Xiao Chiye invited him to have dinner together.

Xu Li looked at the various foods on the ground and swallowed unconsciously: "This is too rich."

Liu Baojia and Huang's mother and son also ate with them. Seeing the food placed on the ground, they were now numb.

Xia Wanniang picked up some dishes that the children liked and made them very happy.

She saw that the originally fair skin of several children in the family was now a little red, and there were streaks of sweat on their faces.

But today, no matter who it is, everyone eats better than anyone else.

Xu Li had been working for half a day and was already starving. With so many delicious foods, he had long forgotten his role as a young master.

They even started fighting with Yifong for a piece of sweet and sour pork.

Aunt Xiao looked at him and smiled: "This is the first time I see Ali eating like this."
