These days, cooking water and cooking all depend on burning firewood. Go back and bring them all back, at least enough for each of them to use for two or three months.

Just save it for the end and let them split evenly.

They do day labor and help in the city on weekdays, and they may not be good at reclamation. Song Shi was very good at it. He explained to Lu Qian and Liu Fu in detail, how to keep an eye on those people, remind them to pay attention to safety, not to get hurt, and to pay attention to whether they dug out all the underground roots when they opened up wasteland. , Some people will be careful, the roots will not be dug at all, and they will be covered with soil. In this way, weeds and shrubs will continue to grow, which will increase a lot of trouble in the future.

Liu Fu wrote down everything one by one, full of energy.

He was still young and couldn't control others, so he had Lu Qian to accompany him. Morrie was also sixteen years old. They were with him, and it was not difficult to manage 40 employees.

Taking advantage of the good weather, work started soon, and the work was done in full swing.

First cut down trees, shrubs, and grasses, clean them up from the ground, and pile them up in a centralized manner. Trim firewood and pile them up separately. Unwanted grass leaves and other debris are set on fire.

The ground is clean, and then start digging to clear the roots and grass roots underneath.

The hired laborers in the city were indeed not good at farm work. In the first two days, they were so busy that they were overwhelmed, and there were problems everywhere.

Fortunately, the employees were reluctant to do this job because of the generous wages, and even if they didn't know it at first, they were willing to listen.

Qiao Xuan drew a topographic map with Song Shi and Liu Fu, respectively, and each circled a place for them to set aside in advance so that they could build a courtyard house.

In the courtyard, there should be a farm tool room, a warehouse, a space for drying various fruits, a workshop hall for simple fruit processing, a duty dormitory and a small kitchen, etc. Each place should be left with about three and a half acres of open space.

In addition, the two places were separated by about seven or eight miles. Qiao Xuan asked Songshi to take a look at the terrain. After turning back to open up wasteland for planting, he made time to build a better road to connect the two sides.

Song Shi and Liu Fu took note of them one by one.

On the other hand, Qiao Xuan asked Sun Bai and Sun Qian to arrange two or three people to inquire about the saplings of pepper and star anise.

Buy according to the demand of each 10,000 mu, if there are not so many, then forget it.

There are no peppercorns or star anise in Yuzhang, so they can only be found in the Anze Prefecture. Today's large-scale planting is not feasible. Qiao Xuan feels that this sapling is difficult to find. After finding it, she may be able to use it in the space first. The branches are cultivated, and they are quietly taken out and mixed into it, which can expand the number of expansions.

In the blink of an eye, seven or eight days passed, and Qiao Xuan's resting period was over. When she had nothing to do in the past two days, she would wander and walk around the garden at will.

Mrs. Guan had learned a lesson last time and restrained the young master. Qiao Xuan never saw the young master Guan in the garden again.

Suddenly remembering something, Qiao Xuan thought for a while, and asked Li Xia and Li Qiu, "I rested a few days ago to have an abortion. Normally, each family should come to visit one or two, right?"

This is the most basic human relationship.

As the wife of the local parents, the official Zhizhou adults, Qiao Xuan was frightened by the fetal inflation. Out of concern, she said that the local high-profile families and famous squire's homes should indeed come to visit. Even if they are not free, they should send the high-status family The maid and maid came to the door with the post.
