Mu Qingli didn't care about this, and went to dinner in a good mood.

The village hasn't settled down yet, so let her make trouble for now. When she settles down, Jiang, this bitch, will definitely get rid of her.

As long as she gets rid of her, with Mu Zhihong's courage and ability, without someone who provokes him, he won't be able to make any waves. The same goes for Mu Fangping.

The next day, Mu Qingli brought people out of the warehouse to take out the thirty pairs of plow rakes that he had bought back, and took everyone to plow the field.

The plow is used first to plow up large pieces of soil, and then the harrow is used to break the large pieces of soil into small pieces, and then a hoe and other manual operations can be used to get out various roots in the ground. Once the ground has been tidied up, the seeds can be planted.

Because there are twenty sets of plows and only ten sets of harrows, there is no need for so many people on site. It is enough for sixty or seventy people to work in shifts.

Mu Qingli is also a half-baked person. The use of plow rakes is only limited to close-up experience in remote mountainous areas in modern times, and she has never used it personally.

Fortunately, the ancient plow is not far from the modern one. Everyone looked at it strangely, they were curious and chatted about it, and following Mu Qingli's half-assed advice, they made it look good. It was quickly put on a yellow ox, a woman was leading the ox in front, and a woman followed the ox with a plow, and plowed crookedly.

The big yellow ox moved forward steadily, and the sharp iron plow seemed to plow out the soil very quickly and easily. Although it was still a very thick piece, everyone was still amazed and couldn't help applauding. Excited to discuss.

"This guy is really easy to handle!"

"No, it's much faster than using a hoe."

"Hey, the people outside are really smart."

"It's all right now, and things will be planted in a few days."

Mu Qingli explained to everyone that because this land was a wasteland before, no crops had been planted, and the land was not soft enough, so when plowing the land, it had to be plowed twice and then harrowed.

The rake is also used twice, and then followed by a hoe to do fine finishing, and all the rhizomes brought out by the various plows are also removed.

When you encounter large rhizomes that cannot be moved by the plow, use a hoe to dig them out. It is best to dig them all out, so as not to take root and sprout again in the spring of the next year.

These rhizomes are stacked on the edge of the ground, dried in the sun, and can be used as firewood for burning.

The women listened carefully and agreed one by one.

Mu Qingli led the others to dig the canal.

For the more than 3,000 mu of land, she plans to excavate two main canals vertically and horizontally, each running from left to right, each with a depth of one meter and a width of about half a meter.

In addition, eight small canals were excavated vertically and horizontally, with a height of half a meter and a width of about 30 centimeters.

The main canal draws water, and the small canal connects to the main canal, which is blocked on weekdays and opened to divert water when water is needed.

After all, it is a dry land, and the water consumption will not be large on weekdays. This is just in case. When the canal reaches the ground, it is much more convenient to carry water for irrigation.

After roughly looking at the place, he asked people to straighten the hemp rope, and sprinkled the lines with white lime, and everyone started digging along the lime lines, and the scene was in full swing.

On this day, when everyone was working in full swing, suddenly a small group of about thirty or forty people came towards this side.

Because of the shadow left by the Jiuli tribe, everyone couldn't help panicking. Those who were still plowing, preparing the land, and digging canals all stopped their work, shouting and running in the Niuwang Forest with their tools on their backs.

The children who were playing nearby and helping to pick up the roots didn't dare to be brave this time, and ran towards the forest first, shouting warnings.

Mu Qingli said loudly: "Everyone, don't panic, there is still enough time to go back!"

Naturally, she didn't retreat, and stayed behind with Xiao Ya'er, watching the group of people approaching.

There were not many people in that group, a dozen or so people in front were riding horses, and those behind were all on foot. The same clothes were full of local characteristics, but they were different from the Jiuli people's clothes.

Thinking back to what she saw in Qingshan Town, Mu Qingli knew that the people who came here were not from the Jiuli tribe, but from the Ivy League.

"Who are you guys? What are you doing here?" Although the people who came were not from the Jiuli tribe, the Qingteng Department may not be a good person, so Mu Qingli's tone of voice was naturally not good.

Through the contest with the Jiuli tribe, she understood that these barbaric tribes are unreasonable and only look at their strength.

So there is no need to care about etiquette and politeness, everything speaks according to strength.

When the other party saw their sisters, he quickly got off the horse and stepped forward with a smile on his face.

The leader, a man and a woman, are in their twenties. Their appearance is quite similar, and they can be seen as brother and sister at a glance.

He is of medium build, with slightly dark skin, and his facial features are quite obvious, but his appearance is quite delicate.

Especially that woman's eyes are black and bright, like black gemstones.

"We are the young patriarch and the eldest lady of the Ivy Department. We are here to visit the noble village chief and his wife, and we have asked this girl to report on your behalf." The young man said with a friendly smile.

The woman also nodded and smiled quickly: "Yes, yes, we have no malicious intentions! Miss, please don't get me wrong, our Ivy Department is not as unreasonable as those barbarians of the Jiuli tribe."

Hearing this, the young man gave a low cough and tugged at the woman's sleeve, then winked at her.

The woman stuck out her tongue quietly, then stopped talking, and just gave Mu Qingli a friendly smile.

Mu Qingli understood their reason for coming, and glanced at the other party, there were only so many people, and she was not afraid of their tricks, so she nodded and said: "It turns out that the guests are here, and our village chief is not here, and the village chief's wife doesn't like to see them very much." The people outside, the deputy village chief and the village elders are here, you can go and see them."

The two brothers and sisters from the Ivy Department came here because they were good friends, and they had no objection when they heard the words, so they agreed with a smile.

Not long after, a team of guards rushed out with weapons. After understanding the situation, they relaxed and led them in to meet Village Chief Zhao, Zhang Zishan and others.

The women who ran back to hide knew what was going on, they all patted their chests and said it was a false alarm, and went back to work.

I just learned to use the plow rake these two days, and I'm still getting fresh energy, so I naturally want to tidy up these lands earlier.

The young patriarch Yaodong and the eldest lady Yaoxia of the Ivy Department stayed for more than an hour and then left. The village head Zhao and others politely sent them off.

After sending them off, Village Chief Zhao said to Mu Qingli with a proud smile: "They came to show their goodwill, saying that they were willing to be our long-term friends, gave us a generous gift, and said they needed help with anything. Just go find them!"
