Chapter 980: Seeking Medical Treatment for Autumn Harvest (1)

As soon as the summer season has passed, August is getting cooler and cooler, but the sun is still blazing at noon. Few people are working in the fields at this time. However, compared with the flaming June and July, the hairballs are not as bright as these days. A guy who was afraid of heat had a much better life.

August is also the harvest season. The Mo familys orchard ushered in a bumper harvest. Although the fruit trees have not fully grown, the branches are bent by the fruits. You dont need to pick them one by one and weigh them to know the fruits harvested this year. , more than five times more than last year.

The batch of fruits harvested last year was not large in quantity. Mo Yan and Yan Junyu kept a few, and the rest were sent to the palace. The quality of that batch of fruits was much better than the so-called tributes shipped from the south, and it was not enough to send them to the palace.

Therefore, the output of the orchard has increased significantly this year, and Mo Yan is not worried about sales at all. Even if the palace cannot "eat" enough, there are many people outside the palace who want to eat, and the price is definitely not low.

The fruits are almost ripe now and can be picked in less than ten days. Mo Yan asked Aunt Tong to look at the arrangements and sent a message to Yan Junyu in advance, asking him to send someone over in ten days to directly transport his share of the fruits. As for the rest that belongs to her, she will naturally take it away together. Anyway, she will not lose any money, and it also saves her a lot of trouble.

More than 100 acres of rice in the mountain valley have also turned yellow and will be harvested in three to five days. As usual, Mo Yan entrusted this matter to Uncle Ding and asked him to hire someone to help with the harvest. The wages and other matters were calculated as in previous years.

However, this year's rice was reserved by the imperial court as soon as it sprouted. After harvest, it was used as rice seed to continue to promote trial planting in Dachu. As for last year's batch of grain, it was distributed by the imperial court to various imperial villages as early as the beginning of this year. It will be harvested in the next two days and will also be used as rice seeds for trial planting in various places.

Mo Yan was mentally calculating how much money the family could earn by adding up the fruits and rice. Xin'er walked in, flipped the abacus and asked: "Sister, when you were granted the title of Commander-in-Chief, the Holy Spirit rewarded you." Zhuangzi, dont you plan to go and take a look?

Last year, Mo Yande won the title of Lord of Hejia County and received a series of rewards. Among these rewards was a thousand-acre farm. The farm was located thirty miles south of the city. It was quite large in area, and it was all made of fine farmland. If it were measured in terms of silver, it wouldn't be worth tens of thousands of taels, so it would be impossible to buy it.

At that time, everyone in the Mo family was stunned by the imperial edict of rewards. They did not understand the series of rewards, and the deed of a thousand-acre farm was even more inconspicuous. After Mo Yan received the imperial edict, he worshiped it directly without looking at it carefully, and inadvertently ignored the farm.

The rewards were all taken away by Mo Yan to the warehouse. She didn't bother to look through them later, so she didn't even know that she had a large farm in her house.

Until this spring, the steward who managed the farm saw that the new owner had not sent anyone to the farm to arrange spring plowing and other matters, so he had to go through a lot of trouble to find Liuyang Village. When Mo Yan saw the steward, she learned that her family had a thousand-acre farm and also learned the origin of the farm.

The former owner of the farm was a corrupt official. After his house was confiscated two years ago, the farm was returned to the court. The farm was still rented by the fifty households of tenant farmers in the village, but the rent and taxes paid went directly to the court.

The steward was once a slave of a corrupt official. Later, after the farm was returned to the court, he became an official slave and continued to manage the farm. After the farm was given to Mo Yan, he naturally became a slave of the Mo family or Mo Yan.

At that time, Mo Yan was so busy that he didn't have much energy to take care of the farm, so he simply handed over the affairs of the farm to the steward and let him take care of the arrangements. Just knowing that the farm actually had two hundred paddy fields, she gave the high-yielding rice seeds and told the general planting method, and then asked the steward to go back.
