Chapter 348: Saving People

Autumn harvest, for any village reliant on farming, is the foremost event of the year.

Datian Village was no exception.

With three hundred seventy-six households and nearly two thousand people, over ninety percent engaged in farming the Spirit Veins, the village had opened up more than six thousand mu of Spirit Fields, with an average yield of about four hundred and fifty catties per mu.

Such a yield was quite a bit higher than what Wang Chen had seen in his years tending the Spirit Fields at Cloud Sun Sect, since the land here was more fertile and nature's spiritual energy was much more abundant.

However, Spirit Wheat ripened only once a year, so the annual yield was actually much less.

According to the rules, of this four hundred and fifty catties of harvest, forty percent was to be offered as tribute to the Agricultural and Pastoral Office of Wan City, twenty percent filled the village's public granary, and farmers kept the remaining forty percent for themselves.
