this night.

Wooden house, dining table.

Four-year-old Lev stared blankly at the eggs in front of him.

In the evening, the father suddenly ran home happily, pulled himself, hugged his younger brother, and rushed out of the wooden house happily, running all the way to the place.

There are so many people in the area!

Lev saw so many people for the first time.

There are many people who cry, laugh and make trouble.

Lev was a little scared and wanted to hold his mother, but mother kept turning over the leaves again and again to look down.

Lev wanted to find his father, but his father kept talking and laughing with the uncles next to him.

Lev wanted to find his sister, but she couldn't be found anywhere.

"Don't look for my sister, she's looking for Grace." My brother said so.

Who is Grace? Why is my sister looking for Grace? The elder brother didn't say anything, but just touched Lev's head.

"The buckwheat at home has grown a lot of seeds, everyone is happy."

"Look there, that's the beehive, Roth's beehive."

"The steward is here, let's get out of the way."

"The vicar is here, too."

"Loss! It's Ross! Lev, look!"

My brother said a lot and told Lev a lot.

Those with leaves and flowers are called buckwheat, and you cannot go in and step on them;

It is dark, and there are things flying around called honeycombs, which can bite people and make buckwheat better;

The ones with different clothes, who are followed by a large group of people are called stewards, and they have to give way to the side of the road;

This kind of person is sometimes called the pastor master, and he must be given over to the side of the road;

Among so many words and so many things, what Lev remembers most clearly is: there is another kind of person, who is not tall, with a very clean face and body, who walks out of the light, and everyone calls his name vigorously, and his father will laugh , the brother will call, the mother will cry... Then, that person will be called Ross, Ross/Moore. When you see Ross, step aside, call him by name, and thank him.

At night, an egg appeared in front of Lev.

"Here are eggs for you and your brother," said the mother.

Someone came again, and the father hugged his younger brother and went out to talk to the people who came over.

Lev stared blankly at the egg.

Lev ate eggs once.

delicious.

Mother went to make dinner.

Lev is craving eggs.

So, Lev carefully peeled off the fingernail-sized egg shell, put the shell in his mouth and sucked it.

After the fingernail-sized eggshells were finished, Lev stared blankly at the eggs again.

After a while, Lev peeled off a little egg shell.

Lev peeled off the shell of the slightly larger egg.

Lev peeled the eggs in large slices.

When the egg shells were finished, Lev carefully peeled off a layer of egg skin.

The egg skin was also finished, and Lev carefully peeled off a little egg white.

In this way, Lev finished eating the eggs.

The father came back with his younger brother in his arms.

Looking at the empty dining table and the marks on the corner of Lev's mouth, the younger brother cried.

Lev hugged his head and lay down on the ground, ready to be beaten by his father.

The father did not beat Lev, but gave his brother his eggs.

Mother cried.

this night.

It is also a wooden house and a dining table.

"no!"

The second son patted the dining table heavily: "The land was allocated a few days ago, why change it now?"

"It's not a direct exchange..." The mother reassured: "Didn't your brother say that? The common land is a little farther away, and the piece of land by the edge of the forest will be left to you in the future."

"I don't want it!" The second son refused without hesitation.

"Plus the portion on the other side of Zhongshui's corner." The eldest son continued to raise.

"Neither!" The second son refused again.

"Then what do you want?" asked the eldest son.

"I don't want anything!" The second son shook his head quickly: "I want the piece that was agreed to be given to me!"

"Do you want that one?" the eldest son asked.

"Definitely!" The second son replied firmly.

"If you really want that piece, it's not impossible..." The eldest son sneered, "Give me another two pieces!"

"Why?" The second son was full of anger: "I agreed to share the land, why should I give you another land?"

"Why? Why do you know it in your heart!" The eldest son was also full of anger: "Just rely on that piece of land, next to the Luosi family's land!"

"so what?"

"How is it? Everyone heard what the pastor said clearly in the evening. Ross will continue to move the beehive soon. At that time, where the beehive will be moved and which side of the beehive will be moved first, don't you know? "

this night.

Wooden house, dining table.

After eating a much larger portion than usual and a much stickier mush, Hansel put down the wooden bowl and patted his stomach comfortably.

"That..." Turning his head to look at the woman who had finished dinner earlier and started to clean up the house, Richard said, "How many beans are there?"

"not many."

"Drag it out and have a look."

The mother-in-law, who had already grown her belly for several months, walked to the side of the bed and dragged out the clay pot containing beans.

"Hmm..." Hansel picked up a basket from the corner, went to the clay pot, and started filling the basket with beans.

The eyes of the family immediately focused on Hansel.

"What's the matter? Hansel..." asked the woman, "What are you doing with beans?"

"Pretend it a bit and send it to Scott's house."

"Why!" the son asked immediately.

"Because he exchanged work with our family." Hansel replied while continuing to pack beans.

"But..." the son asked in bewilderment, "Didn't Scott want to marry his daughter, so he exchanged it with us?"

"Yeah..." Hansel nodded: "But now I want him to continue to trade with us."

"Why?" The son was even more confused.

"For the remaining flowers of buckwheat, so many wheat seeds can also be produced." Hansel explained.

"But, didn't the pastor say that it should be the cause of the honeycomb?"

"There is nothing wrong with being careful!" Hansel finally raised his head, looked at his son and said, "Look at the land over there, the families with the most seeds, our family, Richard's family, Rachel's family , and even the Sanchez family, they all work in exchange for land!"

"The Ross family is not! Moreover, the buckwheat stalks bear the most seeds in his allotment! More than all the allotments!"

"You..." Looking at his son who raised his neck high, as if he had discovered something extraordinary, Hansel's temples throbbed.

"You... the Ross family didn't exchange land! The Ross family! Ross! Is Ross comparable? How dare you compare with Ross... me, me, why did I give birth to such a stupid son like you!"

Sighing deeply, Hansel turned his head helplessly.

fine.

Looking at the appearance of the mother-in-law's belly, she looks more and more like a daughter...

this night.

church.

A few lit rushes cast a soft light in the stone-walled room.

Priest Praia and steward Ifrit sat at the table.

The head of the police force, the clerk, and Zhuangtou stood by the table.

Wu Qingchen, Andre stood a little further away.

Nearly twenty buckwheat stalks lined up on the table surrounded by everyone.

At the front are buckwheat stalks broken from Wu Qingchen's family's field, and the seed setting rate has increased by nearly three times.

Next is the buckwheat stalks from Richard, Hansel, and Sanchez. The seed setting rate has increased by about two times.

For the next buckwheat stalks, the seed setting rate increased between 80% and 1.5 times.

For the last few buckwheat stalks, the seed setting rate increased from 10% to 50%.

Comparing the location of the plots recorded on the parchment, the changes in the rate of increase in buckwheat straw seed setting, and the changes in the distance between these plots and Wu Qingchen's plot, the consistency of the trend is clear at a glance.

"Look! Could there be some other reason?"

Poking heavily at the last piece of land on the parchment, Priest Playa stared at the steward with piercing eyes: "What else can it be except beehives?"

"I know, you don't need to look at this, I'll know in the evening..." Looking at the parchment, Ifrit still hesitated: "However, even if it is definitely a honeycomb, there is no need to be in such a hurry? You have to tell me first. Your Excellency the Baron, as for the village, we can try to move a few more..."

"How much?" Pastor Praia asked immediately.

"Ten?" Ifrit said, "Half of the beehives that belong to us?"

"Too little!" Playa shook her head immediately.

"Twenty?" Ifrit gritted his teeth: "I won't eat honey this year at most."

"Too little, too little!" Playa shook her head vigorously.

"Then how much do you say?"

"At least one hundred!" Playa threw out the bottom line in his mind.

"Cough..." Ifrit choked out: "One hundred! Lord, just move a hundred beehives without telling His Excellency the baron... Priest Praia, your uncle, His Excellency Valles will definitely bring Whip to visit me!"

"You don't need to worry about this..." Praia shook his head, "I will write to my father and ask him to vouch for me."

"Write a letter to your father..." In an instant, several thoughts came to my mind, and the manager realized a little.

"Yes." Praia nodded with a smile.

This smile undoubtedly aggravated the speculation in Ifrit's mind.

"I see..." After figuring out a certain problem, Ifrit stopped dwelling on the number of cells and asked instead, "But why do you have to move the cells so quickly?"

"Because the flowering period of buckwheat is not long."

Although the aborigines in the medieval world did not understand the complex relationship between "pollen", "stamen" and "hermaphroditism", they have accumulated experience in the fact that buckwheat flowers must first exist before buckwheat seeds can be produced. .

"Well..." Ifrit also understood: "Since you can write letters, it's up to you to decide..."

"Next..."

Next, Ifrit and Playa turned their heads to look in Wu Qingchen's direction at the same time: "Let's take a look at your students and our little Ross's craftsmanship."

this night.

forest.

The night deepened.

Next to another place.

Tree poles, building a roof, and binding beehives. With the experience of the previous three times, the work of moving the beehives no longer requires the use of cowherd helpers. The four serfs in the livestock shed can already complete it very quickly.

At about this moment, the priests, stewards, police chiefs, clerks, Zhuangtou, Wu Qingchen, Andrei, the management who had the right to speak in the entire Akeli village, paid attention to them at the same time. Flowing clouds and flowing water, quite neat.

The entrance and exit of the hive are uncovered—the swarm flies out—the swarm circles around the nest—the swarm returns to the nest.

The serfs cheered in unison as the swarm finally returned to its nest.

A dozen steps away, under the bright torches, after watching the previous practice, the careful preparation, and the smooth process, Priest Praia and Ifrit were in charge, but they frowned at the same time.

"Los..." Praia asked, "Are the first few beehives moved like this?"

"Yes..." Wu Qingchen nodded, "It's all like this."

"In that case..." Praia mused, "It takes a long time."

"I'm sorry, master." Wu Qingchen showed a little embarrassed expression: "This is a stupid way, and it is quite troublesome."

"No." Praia shook his head: "It's a good idea, but... it would be better if it could be done faster."

"If you work harder..." Wu Qingchen said hesitantly, "I should be able to move two or three in one night."

"Too little, too little!"

For the base of one hundred hives, too little is too little!

"It's okay." Standing a little farther away, pointing at the serfs who had just finished their work, Ifrit suddenly said: "Didn't Ross just say that? These guys only need to teach them for a day or two. Learn... Akeli village may lack a lot of things, as for the slackers... don't you want as much as you want?"
