Farmer’s Blessed Girl

Man Bao ignored her father's words, she hadn't told him yet, she would still provide them with wheat seeds.

She went directly to Bai Shan to discuss quietly, "Can your family supply all the wheat seeds?"

Bai Shan said: "It shouldn't be a big problem. This is the autumn harvest. This year, the drought near the capital city has also affected Longzhou a little bit. My grandmother definitely didn't sell the harvested wheat."

Therefore, he should be able to collect several hundred acres of wheat seeds.

Bai Shan asked, "This is also a big event, why don't you tell Uncle Zhou?"

"Wait until the Mid-Autumn Festival is over," Man Bao said, "Always let my dad have a good holiday."

Bai Shan thought about it too. When they brought the wheat seeds over, Uncle Zhou would use it even if he had a heartache.

Bai Shan turned to discuss with his grandmother.

Mrs. Liu had long guessed that the three children made a lot of money from the new wheat seeds at the beginning. Now the new wheat seeds have basically become popular, and the court even distributed good seeds to the common people. These rented seeds The people in the job field are still using the old seeds they kept, and a few children will definitely be replaced.

Either buy or make your own.

The former cost a lot, the latter, Luojiang County is too far from Yongzhou, but Longzhou is not far, and it takes three or four days to go back and forth, so she guessed that they would get it from Longzhou.

Mrs. Liu was still very happy, and said to Bai Shan, "This year there is drought in the Gyeonggi area and floods in Shengzhou, so I guessed that the price of grain would rise, so the wheat harvested this summer was not sold, but the Ministry of Household allocated it properly. At present, the price of grain in the capital is very stable, it rose by less than two cents some time ago, and now it has dropped again, so these wheat are cheaper for you."

Bai Shan immediately said with a smile: "Grandmother, Man Bao doesn't want us for nothing, and he will return it to us next year."

Mrs. Liu smiled and said, "I know, because of the relationship between our two families, do you still use politeness?"

She said, "I will let Liu Gui go back to Longzhou tomorrow and let him escort the wheat seeds. But I want to ask you, are you planning to turn this farm into a Zhuangzi like your little Zhuangzi?"

After pondering for a moment, Bai Shan said: "Grandmother, farming is very hard, I think the truth of this world is very strange, the education I received, the books I read all told me that land is very precious, and even the changes of dynasties are mostly due to land. But I have calculated that the income from land production is not high, but everything in this world cannot be separated from the land.”

"A piece of Shu satin is different from five hanging coins to one hundred gold. The difference is silk, and it is also due to the different craftsmanship of people, but the mulberry leaves eaten by silkworms are all from the land, starting from planting mulberry leaves, and ending with Shu satin is worn on people, and the person who wears it, the merchant who sells it, and even the craftsman may be rich, but only the person who started raising silkworms and mulberry seems to be always poor, why?"

Mrs. Liu: How does she know why?

No, why did she think about such a problem?

Why does Shanbao think about such a problem?

Madam Liu was about to speak when Bai Shan was already sitting at her feet and said, "But it's not like people who farm the land will always be poor. Look at the long-term workers in our small village, how poor they were at the beginning."

He was so poor that he didn't even have a change of clothes, let alone a house and a wife and children.

As a result, it has only been a few years, let alone clothes, they have a house, a daughter-in-law, and children. Although two of them are not their own, they are also adopted children, right?

Now there is no shortage of food and clothing, and the large chickens, ducks and geese raised in Zhuangzi also have their share. I can't guarantee that they will always have meat to eat, but they can guarantee that they will often have eggs to eat, which is not worse than the average wealthy household.

"And Zhou Bo's family. The Manbao family's life was not very good in the past, but isn't it also good now?" Bai Shan said: "So the problem is not about farming, but about the problem. on people."

"I was thinking, how should this land be planted?"

Mrs. Liu: ...she just asked a question.

Bai Shan continued to talk to his grandmother, "In the past, my grandmother asked me to inherit my father's legacy, so I want to avenge my father and be an official like my father, but now I vaguely understand what I want to do in the future."

Madam Liu's heart settled down immediately, she smiled and asked softly, "What do you want to do in the future?"

Bai Shan's eyes shone brightly, and he said, "Just do this to make the world peaceful and the people live and work in peace and contentment."

Mrs. Liu nodded with satisfaction, reached out her hand and patted his head, and said softly, "Go and rest."

After Mrs. Liu waited for him to leave, her mood was uncertain for a long time, and after a while, she said softly to Madam Liu, "This child has grown up."

Madam Liu smiled and replied "yes".

Man Bao and Bai Shan, who were eavesdropping outside the window, converged, "So you want to convince Mrs. Liu like this?"

"This is clearly my heart."

Man Bao was very puzzled, "But you told me during the Chinese New Year that Confucius had three aspirations: 'The old man is at peace, his friends trust him, the young man is cherished'. 'That's enough, it can be seen that your ambition has been set a long time ago, why did you tell Grandma Liu just now?"

Bai Shan just clicked her nose and said, "You don't care, just wait for the wheat seeds to be delivered from Longzhou."

Man Bao wrinkled his nose and hummed, "What a treacherous person."

But she didn't go to Mrs. Liu's place to expose him, because it was late at night, so the two of them went to wash and then went to bed. The next morning, they went to the other two miles to see their remaining more than 100 acres of land. .

In fact, they are almost connected, but the more than 100 mu of land is just within the range of the other two miles, so it belongs to the other li, and Man Bao shows them the list, which is to determine the scope of the job field. Only then went to Pu Village.

After thinking about it for a whole night, the people of Pu Village agreed to Man Bao's request, and then began to wait for the tenant with anxiety.

Man Bao himself also breathed a sigh of relief, then pretended to be as expected, took the bookcase from Daji, opened it directly, and took out the pen, ink, paper and inkstone from it, "In this case, we will come to register today. , Today happens to be the Mid-Autumn Festival, everyone has a good festival, and tomorrow we will start to organize the fields and prepare for the cultivation of wheat."

The rior hurriedly took the place of everyone, and then asked someone to bring out tables and chairs from the house to make them for them.

Man Bao said while grinding the ink: "I have read the documents. My thousand mu of working fields, including the more than one hundred mu in the farthest area, were all rented and planted by people in your village?"

The lieutenant smiled and answered "yes", "This is also the request of the yamen, otherwise it would not be easy to collect rent."

That's why he was troubled, he didn't want to manage the field, and if he couldn't pay the fixed rent, he would be held accountable.

Accidentally encounter a bad official, ask for more strange and more, everyone's life is not easy.

See you at 6 pm
