Chapter 205: Divide fields, divide houses!

Because the most important thing at present is to solve the problem of accommodation for nearly 30,000 people, it is impossible to build the houses to such a high level. Therefore, except for the county government and the school, the layout of each house is the same, with three large rooms. However, enough space is left behind each house. After the house is divided, if the head of the household has enough financial resources, he can pay for it or rebuild it himself. All houses are very strong, absolutely no cutting corners.

After all the fields and houses are taken care of, it will be at least three or four months before the cultivated fields cannot be left uncultivated. This season is not suitable for planting wheat. After Qin Mian asked local farmers, he asked them to buy seeds from other county towns that are suitable for planting in the season, including sweet potatoes, corn, cucumbers, macaroni, winter melon, celery, tomatoes, peppers, etc. Sow the seeds at the ratio of three mu of corn land, one mu of sweet potato land and one mu of vegetable land in every five mu of land. The emperor Shan Gao is far away, so he and Lei Tie quietly used some spiritual spring water to improve the soil quality without worrying about being discovered by the imperial court, and at least ensure that all seeds can grow smoothly.

The common people had a very bad impression of the new county magistrate. After a period of time, they discovered that the new county magistrate really did practical things for them, respected the new magistrate from the bottom of their hearts, and worked more willingly and harder.

During the day, all the people work together, and at night, they rest in the built houses. Perhaps it is because of the great disasters that the people get along very harmoniously. Even if there are some big or small contradictions, they can quickly let go of the knots after the advice of others.

The more the merrier. In mid-July, the road from Xinkui County to the mountain was completed; in mid-October, all farmland was reclaimed and various crops were planted. In the first sown fields, vegetables had already been picked a few times. Until late December, all houses in the new county seat were completed.

Standing on the hillside overlooking the new county town, almost all ordinary people have joy, surprise, and pride in their eyes. I saw that the neatly planned farmland of the same size was surrounded by a wide lake like squares on a chessboard. On the periphery of the continuous farmland, twenty-four rows of houses form six "mouth" shapes of different sizes, one set one by one, parallel to each other, and extremely neat. Among them are sixteen rows of brick houses, four rows of wooden houses and four rows of bamboo houses. Because wooden houses and bamboo houses are worse than brick houses in terms of heat retention, they have increased in area-both are two floors. The design drawing is provided by Qin Mian. It has a beautiful appearance and is very popular. In addition, there are four watchtowers in the four corners of the county seat, which are to better play the role of the town guarding the country. An open field directly east is the barracks.

In a word, the new Kuo County is more popular than the original Kuo County.

The next big thing is to divide the field and divide the house. Some people have only one person left in their families, and some people have five or six people in their families, so Qin Mian has carefully studied how to divide the house and the land.

Fields are divided according to their heads. Whether it is an old man about to die or a newborn baby, whether it is a male or a female, everyone can be allocated one mu of land. As for the fields where the corn is planted or the fields where the vegetables are planted, the lottery is determined by luck. Because the fields that were sown first have yielded, and the seeds in the fields that were sown later have not germinated, the county will give them a certain amount of subsidies according to actual conditions, at least to ensure that they can survive. The coming spring. After all, there are nearly 30,000 people, and it is impossible to achieve absolute fairness. For example, fields close to lakes are definitely more convenient for irrigation.

The allocation of houses is done by lottery. The population of the county seat was counted before the county seat was rebuilt. If there is only one person left in the family, they have no right to own a house and need to live with others. Don't think it's unfair. A family with only one person will do less than a family with a larger population. For example, if there are only one unmarried girl, widow, or old lady left in several households, they can share a house. If a family wants two adjacent houses, it is fine. After the allocation is completed, they can discuss with their neighbors, lease or buy them, that is their own business and not under the control of the county magistrate.

There are other more detailed rules. Qin Mian explained them one by one, let people write them down in detail, and posted notices on the four bulletin boards set up in the county. Everyone went to study carefully, and at the next day. First come to the exercise field to gather and allocate houses and fields.

The next day, the people in the whole county had a full breakfast and came to the training ground to gather early. This was the first major event after the establishment of the new county. The school also gave students a holiday. The training ground was full of voices and it was very lively.

Cai Zhifu knew that Kuo County was about to divide fields and houses a few days in advance, and rushed over.

There are three sets of tables and chairs on the spot on the training ground. Qin Mian, Lei Tie and Cai Zhifu are all present. In front of Lei Tie were two large boxes of lottery, one with red cloth tied on it and the other with blue cloth tied on it. In front of Qin Mian was a list and a map of the new county. This list is of course to prevent people from fishing in troubled waters. The notice said that if someone lied about the family's population, the report would be rewarded, and those who intended to deceive would be punished heavily.

Qin Mian looked around, guessing that people are almost there, and walked to the front.

"It's all quiet."

It quieted down quickly.

"Now we begin to divide fields and houses—"

Before Qin Mian's words were finished, the common people began to shout.

"Master county magistrate, you can choose a house and a few acres of fields first!"

"Yes, the magistrate is a good official, rightfully so!"

"Yes, the magistrate's family has two children. You should choose two houses."

"..."

Qin Ruiqi and Lei Ruilin stood aside, smiled at each other, proud of his father's popularity.

Qin Mian was so heartbroken, his eyes softened. The hard work and effort during this time is worth it.

"In this case, the official is not welcome, so he will choose a house; as for the field, it is not necessary. After everyone has finished dividing the field, if there is surplus, the official will pick a few mu to plant."

The common people asked him to pick a few acres of land. Qin Mian waved his hand to stop, "Needless to say. Our family chose the first bamboo building in the first row in the south. Okay, now the lottery starts, and everyone who comes up consciously reports. My name and how many people are in the family."

He used True Yuan to speak, and the volume was so loud that everyone could hear clearly, and he returned to his seat after speaking.

"Number one." At the top of the line was a man in his early thirties, with a happy face, and quickly ran up the steps. Because he was too excited, he almost fell, and everyone couldn't help laughing kindly.

"Hey..." The man smiled honestly, ran to the table, knelt down and knocked his head honestly, "See the three adults, the younger is Boss Chen, and there are five people in the family."

"You don't need to be polite, get up quickly." Qin Mian said: "Grab a paper ball in the red cloth box, and five paper balls in the blue cloth box." The box tied with the red cloth is used to allocate houses and is tied. Blue cloth boxes are used to divide fields.

"Yes." The man grabbed the ball of paper and handed it to Qin Mian.

Qin Mian opened six paper balls with the words "East 0211", "South 0511", "West 0304", "West 1023", "West 1024", and "North 0101", and read: "Old Chen's family, house , The eleventh house in the second row in the east; the field, the eleventh plot in the fifth row in the south...and the first plot in the first row in the north."

Lei Tie and Cai Zhifu each recorded one copy, one copy was kept for the purpose of handling the house deed and the land deed, and the other was handed to the soldiers on standby to let him lead the Chen family to recognize their house and field.

Boss Chen burst into tears with excitement. Now they have more houses in Hetian than they originally owned, so why not get excited? He called the superior family aside and happily followed the soldier away.

"Next person."

More and more people were assigned to houses and fields, and the atmosphere on the training ground became more heated.

Qin Ruiqi and Lei Ruilin looked aside for a long time and found them very interesting.

"Brother, it would be great if we could also grab a lottery." Lei Ruilin said regretfully.

Although Qin Ruilin didn't speak, he was very interested in his expression.

An old man in the line heard it and waved to them with a smile.

"Come."

Qin Ruiqi and Lei Ruilin were very polite, and did not show any prestige as a noble son. In the county town, almost no one knew them, and they were very popular and popular.

When someone called, the two walked quickly over.

"Grandpa."

"Hey." The old man stroked his beard. "The old man is getting old and his arms are not flexible. For a while, can you two help the old man catch lots?"

Qin Ruiqi saw that the old man intended to let him and his brother have an addiction, "I'm afraid that if you get a bad position, you will disappoint your grandfather."

The old man still smiled, "It's okay, the old man and his family are capable, even if they get a bad position, they won't be worse than others."

The two brothers looked at each other and smiled slightly.

"Okay, my brother and I must catch you a good one." Lei Ruilin grinned at him.

The two brothers were changing teeth recently, and only one upper front tooth remained. But when Lei Ruilin smiles, it doesn't make people feel ugly, but instead feels full of innocence and cuteness.
