    "Dalang, are you going to Zhangjiacun this time or half a street away?" Ashin asked.

    "Let's go half a street and exchange some bamboo utensils at Cuizhu Village. Some things at home need to be replaced with new ones. They are also waiting for our wild animals." Dalang replied.

    The markets in these two places are not much different.  If everything was complete, it would still be half a street away, so after Dalang had been to the market in Zhangjiacun several times, he still went to Cuizhu Village with two wild boars on his back.  He wanted to test whether the half-street market would still check outsiders as before.  Moreover, there were many more people in the village, and they also needed to exchange some bamboo utensils.

    That time, when he saw them, the village chief said excitedly: "Oh, I thought you wouldn't come."

    We haven¡¯t seen each other in almost a year, and Cuizhu Village has not changed at all. It seems that their lives are still going well.

    "Village chief, are there still people guarding half the street for interrogation?" Dalang asked.

    "No more, but prices are much more expensive, there are fewer people buying and selling than in previous years, and there is no more food to sell." The village chief sighed and said.

    "Has the caravan come to collect your bamboo utensils?" Dalang asked curiously.

    "I haven't come here for a year, but I did come here not long ago. The price this time was pretty good. It's just that I don't want many things." The village chief said, wanting to sigh again.

    Although the attitude of the caravan has improved this time, they don¡¯t want much, and they still can¡¯t make much. The key is that now they can¡¯t even sell food in the market.  Even with the money they had, they couldn't buy food. Everyone was still half-starved, and the meals they usually ate were thinner and more vegetables were added.  So they liked the wild boars that Dalang and his friends brought even more.  More meat, more oil and water, and less hunger.

    It turns out that as soon as the autumn harvest is over, someone from the government comes to collect grain, and the harvest is 10% more than before.  Everyone did not dare to resist and obediently handed over all the food.  Fortunately, although it was the first time that I saw real officials and family members coming to collect taxes, these officials and family members still abided by the rules and did not exploit the common people.

    However, after they left, no family had any extra food to sell, and even the food in the grocery store was bought. The government even left a message asking the grocery store to help.  To collect grain, they would have people come and take it away regularly.  Therefore, today's grocery stores sell even fewer products.

    "We don't want to buy food, we just want to buy some oil, salt, needles and thread." Dalang said.  After a year, the number of fields opened in the village reached 100 acres. They did not have to pay taxes, they hunted regularly, and had enough meat. There was basically no shortage of food.

    "That's good. Salt is still at the old price, twenty-five yuan per pound. The prices of other things have also increased somewhat." The village chief told him.  As for where the grocery store gets its goods, no one cares.

    Went to the market and took a look. Sure enough, it was a lot depressed, but it was still functioning normally.  Dalang and his group of five people bought twenty-five kilograms of salt based on five kilograms per person, and asked the villagers to help them. They brought back a total of fifty kilograms of salt, as well as other daily necessities.  .

    Now, two years later, everyone in the market knows them.  They were very familiar with both markets.  If you want to exchange some bamboo utensils for your return, you can go to this side of the street and exchange bamboo utensils with the people in Cuizhu Village.  If the picture is closer, we can go directly to the market in Zhangjiacun.

    Before going out this time, Dalang went to the village and asked what everyone needed, so that he could bring them back together.  After all, it is not that easy to go out. The round trip takes several days, even ten days and a half.

    Nowadays, Luwei Village basically distributes production to each household.

    Everyone cultivates their own land and raises their own horses, but after the autumn harvest every year, they will allocate some food to the common house for storage, and everyone takes turns to go hunting.  The meat is shared among the people, and the excess is exchanged for other things, so that everyone can get what they need.  Of course, several village rules have also been formulated to restrain the villagers.  It¡¯s not like now that you have divided fields and have private property, you can do whatever you want.  In order for Luwei Village to develop better, the village regulations are also very strict and cover all aspects.

    This unique and effective method of doing things was accomplished under Xin Hu¡¯s hint.

    In the past two years, everyone farmed together and got along very well. After all, everyone was working hard to put down roots here.  Therefore, no one spares any effort in the work, and no one thinks that you have done less and I have done more. When it is distributed, I am basically satisfied.  But as time goes by, it¡¯s impossible to allocate food like a big pot of rice every time.

    In particular, not every family has the same amount of labor. Over time, some people will definitely think that our family obviously does a lot.?I only go to work in the fields when the farming season is busy.  I usually don't care much about it.

    The two girls in the vegetable garden are good at planting, but they are far behind in working in the fields. After all, it is a girl's house, and their physical fitness is poor. Even after two years of learning Kungfu, they are still not as strong as other girls.  Moreover, Chunmei was not very old, so she had actually been working with her sister, so the two sisters worked alone.

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Fortunately, Lao Chentou knows a trade. He can castrate pigs, chickens, and other domestic animals.  There are also repairing farm tools and doing some chores.  Now there are more chickens, ducks, and pigs raised in the village. Everyone comes to him for work, and he doesn't charge for it. He does the same for other jobs. He just asks everyone to do some work to compensate for the salary.

    Xin Hu can cook all kinds of delicacies, and anyone who wants to learn from her has to help her family with work, so the Chen family has no shortage of labor.  In addition, Chunmei Qiuju still lives in the Chen family, but she is not at home during the day to take care of the daily life of the two wives. After all, they are scholars and do not know or can do many jobs.

    It¡¯s just that now the Chen family has built an extra room for Chunmei Qiuju to live in.  Not to mention that Xin Hu felt uncomfortable sleeping with them, they both felt uncomfortable too.  The two wives also live in a small courtyard by themselves.  Old Chentou and his grandson also built separate houses to live in.

    Therefore, although the number of people in Luwei Village has not increased by a few, the number of households has increased a lot.  For example, Ashin and Ah Zhi separated from the Hu family, and Wu Chunni's two cousins ??also separated from their family. These four young men each built their own houses and lived alone.

    They are all seventeen years old and fifteen years old, so they are all considered adults.  I just started a family and started a business by myself.  After all, they are both only children and want to inherit the legacy of their own family.  Both the Hu couple and the Wu couple agree.  Therefore, under the auspices of the village, everyone separated their families amicably and peacefully.

    However, because of their close relationship, even if they are separated, they are still relatives, and they will always help each other with anything.

    It just so happened that A Xin met Zhang He and A Zhi fell in love with Wu Chun Ni again. Immediately after the autumn harvest, they had to get married.

    In addition, Wu Chunni¡¯s two cousins ??are also somewhat interesting to Chunmei Qiuju.  There are only so many young people in the village, so they naturally get together.  Everyone is happy to see it happen.  Although Chunmei Qiuju is still young and the matter has not been revealed yet, everyone is a discerning person. In two or three years, they will naturally form a new family.

    Even Xie Wu married his aunt and cousin from Zhangjiacun.  Wang Shu also married a girl from Zhang's village earlier than Jiang Dashan, and now his family is about to have a baby.  These young people are not young anymore, and those who can start a family early will get married.  If you really can't find a partner, you can only stay alone.  There are more men than women in the village, but the same is true in Zhangjiacun.

    ???????? It¡¯s just like modern times, there are a lot of leftover men.  Another point is that in ancient times, status was more important. Although we are in troubled times now, there are fewer things than usual, but we still can't do things that are insurmountable.  For example, Jiang Hao and Wu Fan couldn't just marry a village girl.  For another example, Jiang Dashan was able to marry Xie Shuer because his status was not bad.  It is impossible for Xie Shuer to marry a man like Xie Wu or Xie Qi who was once a servant of their family.

    So now, at a glance, there are quite a lot of reed houses. Originally, the one by the lake was all covered, so we had to continue building toward the other side of the field.  Now Luwei Village looks like a big village composed of three small villages.

    Life as a family unit is still much better than eating from a big pot, and everyone will be more energetic at work.

    So this time Dalang said he wanted to go shopping, and there were quite a few people who wanted to follow him.  Everyone wanted to get some wild animals to exchange for something back.  With a new home, everything is missing.  Especially two young people who are about to get married.

    Then, Dalang took Ping'er, Xiao Shitou, and Ashin and Azhi, the two nephews of the Wu family, out together.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
