I'm a big dick

Chapter 571 Change ([-])

Potatoes are resistant to cold and drought, and are also high-yielding. They can be eaten in a variety of ways and taste good.

The purpose of transporting potatoes to Liaodong is to use them as food, to save money, and to let the common people taste them, so as to increase their enthusiasm for planting next year.

Obviously, the purpose is achieved.At least for the Yingzi family, they really like the taste of potatoes.Especially baked potatoes, which taste similar to baked sweet potatoes.

You must know that although sweet potatoes are also high-yielding crops, they are not suitable for planting in the north, especially when the climate is getting colder.

But in the south, the impact is not too great. After harvesting, transporting it to the north can also solve the food crisis.

"I like to eat it too. There are no sweet potatoes, and the potatoes are the same." Yingzi laughed twice, and when the skin of the potatoes was slightly cool, he opened them and ate them slowly, just like his father.

Yingzi's father paused for a moment, but after all he didn't tell his daughter that he had planted a third of sweet potatoes in his private plot.

Although the government said that the weather is getting colder and sweet potatoes are not suitable for planting, he still has some hope, even if it is a waste of time.

"Girl, did you talk about anything new in the evening school last night?" Yingzi's father swallowed the soft potato in his mouth and asked with a smile.

Yingzi thought for a while and said: "Mr. read the newspaper and gave an explanation. The Jilin Mansion was newly built, which is further north of our place. The imperial court has a policy. Those who live in Jilin Mansion will not be taxed for six years on reclaimed land. ; After six years, only [-]% of the normal tax will be collected; after ten years, only [-]% of the normal tax will be collected..."

After repeated consideration, the emperor still did not let go of the land. To be precise, he did not let go of private ownership of the land.

But you can have territory, that is, ready-made arable land reclaimed by the army.You can also reclaim wasteland by yourself. You have the right to perpetual farming on the reclaimed land, and the tax will not rise to the normal level until 15 years later.

"This policy is really good, but you are not allowed to abandon the farmland." Yingzi's eyes flickered, and he said, "The abandoned land will be taken back by the state. If you want it again, you have to re-register and pay taxes."

Yingzi's father nodded slightly, and said, "It's really good, it's almost white."

After a pause, Yingzi's father shook his head again and said, "Unfortunately, Jilin Mansion is too far away. Besides, our family can't cultivate that much land."

Yingzi took it very seriously, and said, "Our family is fine now. If God takes care of us, we will be able to recover in a year or two, so we won't go to that bitter cold place in the north!"

"Yes, let's not go." Yingzi's father nodded vigorously, and said, "Jianlu escaped, but they have not yet been completely wiped out. The further north you go, the more dangerous it is. It is not as safe as our place."

Yingzi giggled and said, "Father, Jianlu is finished, how can the few remaining people prosper? When the army pushes past, they will have to surrender if they don't starve to death!"

"It's not all gone, so we still have to be careful." Yingzi's father didn't feel that he was timid, and hearing his daughter's laughter, he stroked his beard and felt relieved.

While talking, a familiar voice came from outside.It was the snorting of the horses, and the yelling of Zhang Zhuzi.

Yingzi stood up quickly, but her father had already reached out to stop her, and went out to open the gate of the courtyard first, helped Zhang Zhuzi drive the car in, and unhooked and tied the horse.

Zhang Zhuzi looked at his wife standing by the door, with a smile on his face, and drove a few sheep out of the car.

"This sheep is not bad." Yingzi's father nodded again and again, and said, "Usually I will put it out, and you will take care of it in the field."

Zhang Zhuzi laughed and said, "This goat's milk nourishes Yingzi's body. It's said in the book that what's in it is for nourishment."

"Nutritious, nutritious." Yingzi smiled and said: "The emperor said that the people of Ming Dynasty should have milk to drink."
