    ?

    This time the autumn harvest is roughly divided into three parts: greenhouses, field reclamation, and forest planting.

    The food arrangement in the greenhouse is to be harvested first. In order to make more effective use of human resources, the people in each shed are divided into three groups.

    One group is full of middle-aged men, all of whom have good strength, and are responsible for the physical work of harvesting grain.

    The second group is a mixed group of half-grown boys and some old people. They are responsible for collecting and packing the harvested grain, and then transporting it to the unified drying yard by bullock cart.

    The third group consisted of children taken in by the orphanage. The older children plowed the land with ox carts, and the younger ones followed behind and carefully sowed the fallen lily seeds so that the land could rest and accumulate fertility.

    The wasteland opened outside is left to the refugees from outside to be responsible: a wage of 30 Wen a day, three meals a day, and contribution points can be accumulated.

    Once these three conditions are fulfilled, no one can live there. Seeing that winter is coming, these winters have become more terrifying every time. Who knows what it will be like this time. If you don¡¯t work hard at this time, you will come  Winter can only wait to die!

    As for the picking work in the mountains and forests, it is all handed over to the women. There is no need to ask for more, and they can always complete the task very well.

    The harvesting plan of the three groups is obviously very efficient. Qingshu records the work progress of each team. The team that completed the fastest has now started the harvesting of the third greenhouse. Focus on it. Among these people  A few of them should be qualified to join the hunting team!

    On the side of the fruit forest on the mountain, all the picked fruits are divided into three categories according to their appearance and ripeness. The best part will naturally be sent to the mansion. The women are all carefully selected, with sharp eyes.  It doesn't matter if there are flaws, this is what Master Jia wants to import, and it must be the best.

    For the rest, pick some products that are in good condition and put them in the exchange and cafeteria. This is all for the villagers to digest internally.

    The most frequent ones were sent to the cafeteria to make canned or dried fruit, which was regarded as a kind of New Year's goods.

    Only Jian Afu was there on the side of the refugees outside. Chen Chen didn't care much about planting in the wasteland. At that time, he only did this to increase the chances of survival for those refugees.

    Here, Jian Afu is just registering the number of people working, the number of days, and the total output of each day. However, the little monkey in the grain store is as busy as a spinning top.

    All the grain harvested here will be supplied to the grain store. When everyone is starving, which grain store will be willing to sell this year's new grain, and it will be sold at the original price!  Not a single point!

    The little monkey patted the ox cart full of grain, and his face was flushed with uncontrollable joy. With this batch of grain supplied, the lives of the people in the city will be much better this winter.

    After a whole day of harvesting, those who were physically exhausted had to take time to rest early after dinner to recover their strength for tomorrow's harvesting work.

    The whole Taoyuan Village seemed to have entered a sweet dreamland, it was quiet and there was no sound at all.

    Only Chen Chen sat alone in the study and checked the records made by Qingshu, and summed up his experience, "These mutated wheats seem to have adapted to the living environment here, and the yield per mu this year is 20% more than last year!"

    "However, the harvest of this upland rice has not changed. The land is cultivated frequently, and if the fertility does not increase, it may be difficult to have a high yield." Chen Chen tapped the table twice with his finger, and made a decision in his heart, "We still need to produce chemical fertilizers.  That's right, the problem of fertility loss is not limited to Taoyuan Village, it will become more prominent in other places, and the successful promotion of improved varieties has finally stabilized the hearts of the people, so nothing can happen again."
