The rain comes in the beginning of spring, get up early and go to bed late.

For people like Liang Chuan who are not diligent in four bodies and do not distinguish between grains, they suddenly felt that one day when they got up to chop firewood, the quiet He Lu suddenly became lively. People carried plows and drove cattle snails to the fields and carried them on their shoulders.

With hoes and rakes and manure, every household began to clean up their own acre of three-quarters of land. The temperature in the air rose slightly, the sky gradually became brighter and the temperature slowly rose. The busy spring plowing season on the ground finally began one after another.

Missed this best season and may be drinking the northwest wind again this year.

Zheng Ruoying frowned, worried that she was not worried about food and food. The tenant farmers at home were busy packing up the paddy fields and occupied all the farm tools and oxen. Not to mention taking out some to serve the sugarcane land at home, even the excess tenant farmers were

Not many.

She used her ability to act spoiled Zheng Yiqian again, hoping that Zheng Yiqian would be soft-hearted to help him pull out a few cows and tenant farmers to help reclaim the dry land. Zheng Yiqian remembered that he was beaten by his wife a few days ago because of her momentary confusion. Now, how many days now

I can't even touch the bed, so I can only sleep in the living room, so I dare not be soft-hearted.

Besides, this spring farming plan is the foundation of a family. If spring farming is misleading, the family will not be able to collect food in the autumn harvest. Now most of the family’s business depends on autumn grain. If the tenant farmers cannot collect grain, they will pay taxes and rent?

Lao Cai has been watching this young lady grow up since she was a child, and she knew in her heart that she was quite concerned about growing sugarcane recently, but she happened to encounter the busy farming season of spring plowing, and she found the ox to be a ghost. Lao Cai felt sorry for this

The girl, I gave her an idea to go to the market to see if anyone sells oxen, and to recruit them to see if there are any idle farmers. Last year, many people fled from the north.

It depends on luck, you should find it.

The only thing she needed was money. Zheng Ruoying wanted to place her hopes on her father Zheng Yiqian, but Zheng Yiqian refused to help her. She was cruel and took out all the private money she had saved for several years...

In the fifth year of Xianping of Emperor Zhenzong, Li Jiqian, the head of the Li clan in the northwest, was plotted by Tubo and seriously injured. After Li Deming ascended the throne, he tried his best to expand. In the third year of Emperor Zhenzong, he even chose Huaiyuan Town as the capital and changed it to Xingzhou. Now

The Xingqing Mansion was still vain to the outside world, but the wolf ambition was known to everyone.

At this time, the Liao Kingdom in the north was no longer a big trouble, but instead, the northwest was in chaos. The Li family invaded the Song territory from time to time. The northwest was originally a place for the people. The Li family suffered a disaster and the people were living in poverty. In this dynasty, Li Yuanhao followed Xia.

The throne was changing, and the Li family was ambitious. Not only did they go to war with the Song Dynasty, but they didn't even take the Liao Kingdom seriously. They met with war, and refugees were everywhere, and a large number of homeless refugees moved to the mainland.

Relocation of land is the most fundamental belief in the hearts of the people for thousands of years. If the land where our ancestors lived was not the last moment, these simple people would not think about changing it. However, wars are inconsistent, and they will be in one after another every three days.

War, let alone agricultural production, did not even have life. It was also because of the loose management of household registration in this dynasty, and the restrictions on personal life were not as crazy as those in the Ming Dynasty, so it was possible to move the whole family.

The land in the north has long been saturated, and the only places that can accept these refugees is Jiangnan, while the large tracts of land in the south are still in a primitive and undeveloped state.

A large number of refugees crossed the Yangtze River. Jiangnan is not as good as Jiangbei at this time. Jiangbei has been an important place for farming since ancient times. The development of the south is not so accurate. The impression of the Southern Barbarians is still deeply imprinted in the hearts of the people. A large number of refugees are moving towards Jianghuai and Zhejiang, and have arrived here.

Then they no longer move forward, but a small number of people can see far and rather give up the great prosperity of Jiangnan and continue to move towards the south. They believe that although the poorer they go south, they can stay away from war. It doesn't matter if their generation can work hard.

Give your descendants peace for several generations and no longer suffer from the suffering of their own generation. This is the most important thing.

People are still there, what is hardship?

Fan Dianyuan dragged a wooden car and walked thousands of miles with wheels. His little daughter and wife were sitting on the car. The three of them had a clean face, but they smelled so much. How long hasn't they been?

They couldn't remember it even after bathing. Their hair was messy and yellow, with some grass stems and leaves, and they looked like beggars. They walked on the only important road in the north and south of Fengshan, and others were afraid of it. Behind him

There are about a dozen people like him.

They all escaped from Shaanxi together. Li Yuanhao was in a military state and occupied Xia, Yin, Sui, You, Jing, Ling, Hui, Sheng and other prefectures and counties, covering the area of ​​many counties. He arrived in Shaanxi, and this place where the heavens were not blessed was caught in the Li family.

There were many wars between Zhao Song and the Khitans. Not to mention food, even the grassroots and bark were eaten, and it was almost impossible to eat people.

Like everyone else, Fan Dianyuan had no choice but to take his family to the south to make a living. At the beginning, there were hundreds of such families coming out of Shaanxi, some heading towards Shuzhong, and some heading towards Jingxiang.

Then, there are fewer and fewer people in the team along the way.

Fan Dianyuan was not confused when he saw the wealth of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, because he knew that the fertile land here could not accommodate them, and his descendants could only serve as tenant farmers and slaves for the local landlords, and where would there be land for them? He persuaded the team.

People gritted their teeth and walked south again. Just enter Fujian Road. There is a large area of ​​forest land that has not been developed yet. First, they are tenant farmers for the locals for two years. When they get familiar with the place and find abandoned land, there must be

Where they were in their place. Only a few people in the northern Shaanxi team that fled to the north believed his words, and continued to walk south after passing Jianzhou Prefecture.

In order to come to Fujian, when Taizu established the country, Shuchuan started fighting and the two lakes were expropriated and suppressed. Fujian and Yue surrendered. There has been no war here like other places for hundreds of years. Looking at the whole world, the whole world has been in full swing.

Song, the place has been peaceful for a long time, and the one who fears the most is war and the one who desires the most is such a quiet place.

We could no longer walk south, and they saw that the large area of ​​land here was abandoned. It was not that the crops had not been planted, but that weeds and rocks were chaotic, and that no one had cultivated them for many years would have such a scene.

This place is their end.

Lao Cai took Zheng Ruoying and Cai Gang drove a carriage to buy oxen at the market in Fengshan. The family didn't even have enough tenants. Zheng Ruoying took a look at whether there were any idle laborers to recruit a few to reclaim sugarcane land. Lao Cai told

If he is a local, don't use it. If the locals are too lazy to farm their own land now, then what are they attracting? Do you have a good meal?

Normally, the plowing oxen at this time is like a treasure. Every household carries good grass and supplies for it, for fear of getting sick and not being able to go to the field, which will miss the farming season, let alone selling cattle for money. But Zheng Ruoying's luck

It's so good. There are several farmhouse scalpers who plan to sell them. They go to Suzhou and Hangzhou to see them. If this continues in the fields, they really can't make a personal appearance. The government's taxes are too tight. I want to go to the north to work hard and take a look.

Can you turn around? Take advantage of this busy spring season when oxen need to be plowed, and come to the market to see if you can sell it at a good price.

The two families had five cows in their hands. Zheng Ruoying saw the opportunity and was willing to miss it. She discussed the price with the two families on the street. Unexpectedly, while the price was negotiated, a unkempt suddenly ran out of the roadside.

The little boy, his clothes were torn in the winter. The little boy grabbed Zheng Ruoying's skirt. Zheng Ruoying was a big yellow girl, and he was so scared that he was not.

What a thief, but a little boy.

The little boy was probably hungry and had never seen such a beautiful lady from a wealthy family. Without knowing it, he went over and grabbed Zheng Ruoying's skirt and said, "Sister Fairy"

,Hungry.."

When the little boy's parents saw the scene, they were frightened and they didn't know the price of the glossy silk dress, but they knew that even if they sold their family in the kiln, they couldn't change that much.

I will pay the money to others.

As soon as the servant Cai Gang saw the light of the sky, this little devil was so ungrateful that he dared to act like a wild person with his own people. He immediately showed a loyal attitude of protecting the master, rushed to the front, pulled the little boy apart, and pushed it away.

On the ground, I raised the whip in my hand and said angrily: "Where did the wild breeders come from? I dare to be rude to our ladies like this. I blinded your dog's eyes. How much money is this skirt in my small family worth? It's dirty.

Can you afford to lose the bad ones?" After saying that, the high whip whipped the child down.

With a "bang!", the little boy's face turned out to be green and hungry, and suddenly there was a deep red blood mark. Because of the pain, he was intimidated by Cai Gang again. The little boy got up from the ground and sat down.

She started crying while wiping tears on the ground. Cai Gang smelled the hand he had just touched the little boy, and a disgusting smell rushed straight to his forehead.

Zheng Ruoying was very disgusted with Cai Gang's behavior of pretending to be powerful and tyrants. Seeing that Cai Gang was going to slap the little boy a second time, he immediately stopped and said, "Stop hitting him! Stop!"

The little boy's parents knelt in front of Zheng Ruoying and his group with a thud. They kowtowed and sniffed in front of Zheng Ruoying and snatched, "The female Bodhisattva is kind, poor, the baby is so hungry.

, stop beating, the baby is still young, let the doll go."

Cai Gang looked at these two parents who were not very eyed and wanted to teach a lesson. Zheng Ruoying couldn't bear it anymore and was about to have an attack. Old Cai spoke in a heavy and majestic voice, "Didn't you hear me when you ask you to stop?

When did you become so presumptuous?"

Cai Gang looked at these beggar-like people angrily, and swung the whip to the side. The whip was thrown out a whip flower on the ground, and said, "This time you are lucky! My lady won't care about you."

, otherwise I will send you to heaven!”

Zheng Ruoying squatted down and helped the little boy up, checked the whip marks on his body, and said with heartache: "Be good, don't cry or cry, my sister buys you a meat bag." Zheng Ruoying told Cai Gang to buy it.

A few meat buns, Cai Gang saw that his lady wanted to buy food for these stinky beggars, and hurriedly said, "Miss..." Lao Cai said behind him, "You might as well go, you don't have to follow him next time.
