"Xian'er, let's go back to the village to live with our parents for a while."

Unwilling to deal with the sophistication of the town, Zhu Chuanwen planned to take Xian'er to live in Niugou for a while.

Although he has a desire to change the world, Zhu Chuanwen is not willing to completely betray himself.

If he hadn't wanted to interfere with too many things, Zhu Chuanwen would not have left the civil affairs of his own territory to the local gentry to take care of themselves.

"Okay... I also want to go back to the village to live for a while and stay with my parents."

Xian'er's expression changed several times, but she finally agreed.

Xian'er didn't have any objections to Tunli, Zhu Kaishan and the Zhu Wei family.

On the contrary, it was because Xian'er abandoned her parents and went to Guandong with the Zhu family.

The Zhu family is very kind to Xian'er and gets along well with her.

Zhu Kaishan and Zhu Wei did not want Xian'er to take care of them, and letting Xian'er live in the town was an example.

The main reason is that the two have been married for seven or eight years and have not had children, and Xian'er feels a little ashamed of them.

"Don't worry, I will take care of my parents' side and won't embarrass you."

The two of them have been childless for such a long time. In the past few years, Zhu Chuanwen deliberately did not want Xian'er due to his young age.

Later, Zhu Chuanwen was absorbed by the Qing Dynasty and was stationed abroad all the time. The two of them got together less and separated more, so they didn't want to get married. After all, this kind of thing still requires a bit of fate.

"Uncle Zhu, where are your family's braids?"

After returning to the village, the first thing that others noticed about Lao Zhu was that the braids on his head were gone.

"If you cut it off, it will be the Republic of China. Who will still have those braids?"

Zhu Kaishan replied to the villagers while driving his car.

"It's good, it's neat and tidy..."

"Isn't this just like a fake foreign devil? It's so ugly!"

Due to the status of Lao Zhu's family, the villagers, no matter what they think in their hearts, outwardly support and praise him.

But children don't care about this, they don't take it into consideration that much, and they just say whatever they think in their hearts.

This is an aesthetic distortion, caused by more than two hundred years of ideological poisoning, and it will take time to reverse it.

"You are all children of someone else's family. None of you can run away. Leave your braids for me, otherwise none of you will be able to run away."

Zhu Chuanwen threatened a group of children watching the fun.

"Run quickly, I don't want my pigtails to be cut!"

A group of children immediately dispersed. The children were taught to stay away from soldiers and bandits, and they were naturally afraid of Zhu Chuanwen's identity.

Even if Zhu Chuanwen is friendly, he is at least as intimidating as a patrol officer.

Children from Fangniugou and Yuanbao Town are better off if they are familiar with the style of the militia.

In other places, Zhu Chuanwen's reputation is such that it is not surprising that he can stop children crying at night.

"There's no point in running. Dolls with pigtails are not allowed to exist in the Cowherd Valley."

Zhu Chuanwen thought in his heart, forget about those adults, they have stubborn ideas and it is difficult to change you, but children are very malleable and cannot be delayed.

When I get back, I will discuss with the village chief about shaving off the child's braids.

Then carry out some new school education.

After twenty years, these people will be of great use.

As Lao Zhu became more and more prosperous, the yard of Lao Zhu's house in Fangniugou was repeatedly expanded.

Up to now, it is not just a courtyard where long-term workers and servants live.

The three brothers of Lao Zhu's family also each have their own small courtyard.

"You guys clean it up, I'll go to the fields and take a look."

As soon as he returned home, Zhu Kaishan was thinking about the crops in the field again.

No matter how many short-term and long-term workers we hire, it will not delay Zhu Kaishan from going to the fields himself.

"Dad, let me go with you." Seeing that Chuanwu had no intention of going with him, Zhu Chuanwen decided to follow him and have a look.

When the two people arrived, the long-term workers, led by the foreman, were weeding the soybean fields.

This is the farming method of Zhu Chuanwen’s hometown in Shandong.

The reason why there are so many people and so little land is that Shandong pays attention to intensive farming. Without more fields, we can only make a fuss about how to increase the yield per unit mu.

The soil outside the customs is fertile, and there are few people and plenty of land, so rough farming is adopted.

At a glance, Lao Zhu's crops are growing much better than others.

"Botou Cui, how many more days will it take for the bean fields, and how many more days will the tobacco fields need manpower?"

Zhu Kaishan asked the leading long-term worker.

"Boss, the guys have worked hard and can't delay the progress."

Cui turned his head towards Zhu Kaishan and replied.

According to the original plot, this person should have been a bit prickly and unconvinced by Zhu Chuanwen's management.

But now Zhu Kaishan directly manages Changgong. Of course Zhu Kaishan is better at management, and there is a reason why the Zhu family is more powerful.

There is no sign of thorns on this Cui Bao's head.

Farming for Lao Zhu's family is the same as farming for his own family.

"Okay, everyone has worked hard during this period. I'll give you an extra meal today, and you'll have enough food and wine." After hearing this, Zhu Kaishan encouraged the long-term workers.

In fact, most of the days of long-term labor are not difficult, especially outside the customs where there are few people.

During busy farming hours, the long-term workers had better food than the landlords themselves.

Many landowners in this era cannot ensure that they drink alcohol and eat meat every day.

But we need to help ensure that the long-term workers have good food and drink, and they need to eat meat and drink.

Lao Zhu's family gave the best treatment to long-term workers because Lao Zhu's family farmed intensively and did heavier work than other landlords' families.

But even with the most ordinary treatment, the landlord must ensure that long-term workers have a living.

"Quickly thank my boss. You will all work well and live up to my boss's kindness."

Cui turned his head to the guys and shouted.

"Thank you, boss!" Upon hearing the extra meal, the guys' movements must have become noticeably lighter.

"This boss Cui is very good at what he does. When he gets a job, he really takes it."

Seeing the long-term workers working hard, Zhu Kaishan felt much better.

"It is indeed possible. After the collection is completed this year, if any of them wants to move here, let them move here."

Zhu Chuanwen nodded.

Consider allowing these people to move to Zhu Chuanwen's territory and settle down.

In troubled times, peace is certainly a gift.

"Dad, the situation is not bad. There may be a little less harvest this year, but the situation is not too bad."

After the two people patrolled around, Zhu Chuanwen said firmly to Zhu Kaishan.

Zhu Chuanwen has been farming for many years and is considered an old farmer. Without various modern tools and technology, his performance will definitely be affected.

But the experience of farming is universal regardless of age and will not be affected.

"Brother Kaishan, you have come to the fields again. If you ask me to tell you that you are the best at farming in Niugou, or that you from Shandong Mountain are the best at taking care of the crops."

On the way back, the two met Han Laohai, who was supervising the work of the long-term workers.

This person has a bit of an impression of a landlord. Every day he walks leisurely around the fields with his hands behind his back, pointing fingers at the long-term workers.

"There's nothing you can't take care of. If you work harder, the crops will grow better."

Zhu Kaishan said modestly that although farming is physical work, it also requires a lot of skills.

"That's what I say, but who is willing to suffer this? Only you Shandong people can bear this suffering."

Han Laohai replied, to put it bluntly, these people were spoiled by the fertile land.

You don't need to worry too much about taking care of it, and you can have a good harvest.

It's so easy to survive on the land here, so there's naturally not that much pressure.

They all came from feudalism, and there was a big generational difference between those outside the Pass and those within the Pass in terms of improved seeds and agricultural tools.

The people from Shandong migrated here to farm, which was not without benefits for the local people.

At least agricultural technology outside China has advanced a lot.

"Chuanwen, why did you follow your father to the fields today, where is Chuanwu?" After greeting Zhu Kaishan, Han Laohai asked Zhu Chuanwen.
