"Oh, William, how did you move everything out?"
What happened to Wayne and Holman had just happened, and when he turned his head to look at another villager coming out of the hillside, Old William already knew it well.
"Oh, it's Kars..." said old William.
It's Kars with a broken hoof on the family cattle... so old William said in his heart.
"No way, Ross must say that the Rodriguez family is cursed..." Old William said so.
I want Ross to find some time to visit your house again, right? Old William said so in his heart.
No matter what he said in his mouth or in his heart, Kars, who asked for others, couldn't refuse Old William's opinion!
As a result, another person was added to the furniture moving team, and a third bundle of pasture grass appeared at the door of Wu Qingchen's new house.
After a few trips, half of the pile of things by the stream bank disappeared.
A little while later.
"Are there so many people moving things?" asked the villager whose cattle had been strangled in the abdomen.
Soon, the moving team became five people, and the grass in front of Wu Qingchen's house became four piles.
"Do you need help?" asked the villager who wiped off a large piece of meat from the back of the farm cattle.
As a result, the moving team became six people, and the grass in front of Wu Qingchen's house became five piles.
With so many more people helping, the number of furniture, farm implements and tools on the banks of the streams has decreased rapidly.
A little while later.
"Old William, don't tell me when you move things..."
Farm cattle at home...
Huh? At this moment, Old William began to feel strange again, and he even raised his hand and rubbed his eyes.
That's right! The villager who came out from another corner and also carried a large bundle of pasture was the lucky Cizera!
It was the rare and lucky Cizera who had no injuries to the cattle in the family last time when almost all the cattle in the village were unlucky!
"Cesera, what are you doing here?"
"Huh? I cut the grass and went home!"
"Go home? What home are you going back to?" After a series of unexpected "coincidences" completely exhausted his patience, Old William said unceremoniously: "Where is your home here? Isn't your home from the bridge by the forest?" Did you go up there? There are two... oh, three bridges away!"
"This..." Cizera began to hesitate, his head lifted, and his eyeballs began to roll.
"Okay, okay..." Old William was not interested in listening to his impromptu fabrication: "Didn't your cattle have nothing to do last time? Why, they were unlucky and injured in the past two days? I also want my Luosi to be free. to see?"
"Yeah, don't say that!" Cizera waved his hand quickly: "My cow is doing well!"
"Then why did you come all this way?" Old William looked up and down at Cizera, who had several traces of sweat on his face, and his forehead was covered with grass seeds and fine beads of sweat: "You deliberately carry such a big bag on your back?" A bale of hay."
"This..." Cizera pulled old William a few steps away, and waited for the two villagers who were helping to move away with their things. Then he approached William and said, "William, you know... although my cattle didn't Injured... But it's still a calf after all, in two days it will start plowing again... At that time, if it's convenient, I'd like to ask Ross to arrange a few stronger cows to pull the plow together... "
"Uh... this..."
How did I forget this all of a sudden
It was only then that William remembered that the scope of the cowherd’s authority, apart from the treatment business that never existed before Luo Si’s tenure, the most important thing, which is most closely related to the interests of the villagers, is to clear the weeds in the old man’s land. After eating, go to the rotation land to weed and fertilize. The second is to arrange the work of the cattle during various labors.
Needless to say, the benefits of weeding and fertilizing are limited, and only the close relatives of the cowherd and a few villagers who have good friends have the possibility to benefit from it.
Compared with the above, the range of job arrangements is too wide.
As far as the plowing of the summer service is about to start again: Is the plowing place hard or ripe? Do you pull the heavy plow or the light plow when plowing? Is the plowing partner a calf or a strong cow? Etc., etc…
"William..." Seeing William's silence for a long time, Cizera became a little anxious: "...in fact, it doesn't have to be all strong cattle, as long as there is a stronger one, it will be..."
Regardless of hard land, heavy plow and light plow, calves are strong...
Any one of these decisions will directly affect the hearts of the whole family of the farming cattle.
Any of these changes will directly affect the vital interests of several villagers involved.
"William..." Cizera's eyes were full of hope and pleading, "If it really doesn't work, you can use a lighter plow...
"This..." Old William didn't even want to intervene even if he asked Ross to go around and look at the injured cattle casually. How could he possibly participate in this complicated problem
"... this... Cizera, you also know that I am not a cowherd! The summer service is so important, the master in charge must only listen to Ross, um... probably also the meaning of the cowherd helpers... want to exchange strong cattle Either way, if you want to change to a lighter plow, what is the use of telling me... "
"It's useful! Of course it's useful!" Seeing that William's tone seemed to be loosening, Caesar was full of joy: "You just need to tell Ross that Caesar has come first! When changing oxen and plows, as long as Ross remembers Caesar Lah, Cizera must remember to thank Ross!"
"Is it all right to say 'Cesera has already come first'?"
"Enough, enough! Thank you so much!" Cizera nodded quickly, and patted the pasture on his shoulder vigorously: "These pastures are gifts I specially brought, let me carry them..."
"These pastures?" Old William frowned slightly.
Old William clearly remembered that when his farm cattle were young, he gave a hen to Rodriguez's family, the cowherd at that time, in order to make the work easier during the summer service!
"These pastures? Seeing that Old William seemed dissatisfied, Cizera looked back at his shoulder in doubt, and then suddenly realized, "Oh... oh! These pastures are just a thank you for the gift, the Ross side...well, and the plow handle side, I'll say it myself...”
"Oh!" Old William finally understood what "Cesera had already come first" meant.
The point is that the word "first" in it is that "first" gave a gift to the cowherd's father. In the case of other gifts of the same kind, it goes without saying that Ross chooses to help the farm cattle with lighter work.
The conversation with Cizera was slightly delayed, but the speed of moving things by the stream and beach not only did not slow down, but became faster and faster.
In fact, Cizera's arrival seemed to have sounded a signal. After that, Old William no longer had the time to carry things himself.
I don't know who spread the news, one after another villagers rushed to the new residence of the old William's family carrying pasture.
It didn't take long for Old William to receive several bundles of pasture grass "When you are free, please come to my house to see the cattle", and more than a dozen bundles of pasture grass "Please tell Ross that a certain villager has come first" .
These families with cattle in their homes can live a decent life.
This "tolerable life" is not easy to keep. In order to protect the injured cattle at home, and to reduce the fatigue of the cattle during the summer service, the pastures sent by the villagers who own the cattle are the softest. Part of it, and these pastures have been sun-dried and yellowed, so they can be stored for winter without any further work.
Looking at the haystacks piled up in several clumps, Old William made a rough estimate. The ones in front of him are already a small half of the harvest of his pasture field this year.
And this is only the first day that the villagers have come to deliver pastures. When all the villagers who need Luo Si's help have delivered pastures, even the most conservative estimate will be twice the harvest of their own pastures.
Old William finally deeply understood that the greatest wealth of the cowherd family was not at all the big house given to Ross by the masters, but the position itself.
As a cowherd family, with the pasture brought by the villagers for various reasons, not only can the family easily raise several times the number of livestock, but also no need to worry about pasture from now on.
In this way, the land originally planted with pasture can be turned into a ration land for rotation cultivation, and the cowherd family has the least lack of manure and labor for farming cattle. After Bao and other heavy burdens, the time to do other work in the field is no longer a problem.
Multiples of livestock means multiples of cheese, and turning the grassland into a ration land means a large amount of grain, all the fertilizers and cattle that can be used without restriction, and most of the time saved from not having to work on pastures …
Calculated in this way, how much more wheat and other omnivores can my family harvest
Just a rough imagination, the result made old William flushed and dizzy.
Do not! That's not all!
Beside the high-quality haystacks just now, there are several piles of poorer-looking ones, with fewer bundles, but they have also been withered and yellowed, and the total amount of pastures is larger than the other haystacks. Hay, beside which there were many little baskets filled with soybeans or peas.
These hay and miscellaneous grains come from the larger families in Akeli village who do not own cattle.
That's right, the cowherd family is so domineering.
If there are farm cattle, it is natural that they have to make offerings to the family of cattlemen who actually manage the cattle herd, otherwise they cannot guarantee the safety of their own cattle.
Without farming cattle, it is even more necessary to provide credit to the cattle herder’s family that actually manages the farming cattle. Otherwise, there is no way to guarantee that when the farming work is most critical, or when heavy objects must be transported, a good one or a suitable one will be borrowed in time. cattle.
In order to prevent the "already difficult" days from becoming "absolutely impossible to live with",
These families without farming cattle had to set aside a large amount of rations and pastures as a gift for renting the master's farming cattle, and had to squeeze out a small bundle from the shriveled stomachs of their own goats, cows, chickens, geese and other large and small livestock. Hay, and then a basket of omnivores is dunked from the mouths of family members such as father, mother, son, and daughter who are also tight.
These hay and omnivores squeezed out through untold hardships are naturally part of the wealth of the cowherd family.
It has been like this for generations.
