Farmer’s Blessed Girl

Old Zhoutou was a little curious, "What does Bai Shan want the cow to do?"

He suddenly thought of something and widened his eyes, "This kid doesn't want to eat cows, right?"

Before Thursday Lang could speak, the old Zhoutou had already shouted, "This is too much of a waste."

Thursday Lang said: "He said it was a gift, and a classmate wanted it, but all the ones bought outside had a serial number, and they were kept on file at the yamen where they went."

The court's control of farming cattle is still quite strict. The cattle of Shishulang were brought back from the grasslands. Before they were numbered, he could use them for anything. Once they were numbered, they were farming cattle.

Old Zhoutou expressed his dissatisfaction with Bai Shan's extravagant behavior of giving a cow as a gift, and then asked, "Will others return the gift?"

How did you know about Thursday?

But in order to reassure his father, he nodded without hesitation, "Definitely."

The old Zhoutou was relieved.

Man Bao, who had been booked to receive gifts, had no intention of preparing gifts for Bai Shan. After she saw that Cui's condition had stabilized, she had to pack up and go home.

Yang Heshu left her and said, "Tang Zhihe is coming over at noon, why don't you stay and have dinner together."

Man Bao thought that she might not see Master Tang for a long time, so he nodded in response.

Tang Zhihe really came over for lunch, and Mrs Cui couldn't deliver the delivery room, so there were only the four of them and their servants in the dining room.

Tang Zhihe asked Man Bao with a smile, "I heard that you own the job field, how is it, is the land allocated to you by the Ministry of Household okay?"

Man Bao nodded, "Very good, the land is much more flat and fertile than our Qili Village, and the Guanzhong Plain is mostly better than our Chuanshu."

After thinking about it, she said, "Except that it is too hot in summer and too cold in winter, there is nothing wrong with it."

Tang Zhihe:  …

He turned his head and said to Yang Heshu, "It's quite picky."

Yang Heshu smiled and asked Man Bao, "Have you found the tenant farmer?"

Man Bao nodded, "Basically it was rented by a former tenant farmer."

Yang Heshu raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, "How did you collect the rent, and they are willing to renew your lease?"

Tang He was unfamiliar with these things, and when he heard the words, he raised his head a little strangely, "Why, is it difficult to hire tenant farmers in Yongzhou?"

Yang Heshu glanced at him, obviously the magistrate didn't know the tricks in the field, he didn't say anything and looked at Man Bao.

Man Bao swallowed the vegetables in his mouth and said: "I only take 40% of the rent, I donate all the wheat seeds, half of the rice seeds, and they are responsible for the other seeds. Besides, I plan to give them 20%. cow."

Before the magistrate Tang could speak, Mrs. Tang had already said, "It's only 40% of the rent, how much can you earn in a year with so many things?"

Man Bao smiled and said, "Perhaps you will earn less in the first year or two, but will make more money later?"

Madam Tang raised her eyebrows and asked, "Why, are you going to increase the rent later?"

Man Bao shook his head, "Sister-in-law, the most precious thing is not only the field of work, but also their manpower. Some benefits can't be seen for a while, but they will be seen after a long time."

Yang Heshu remembered their little Zhuangzi in Qili Village. As a frequent visitor to that little Zhuangzi in various senses, he could roughly calculate their income.

Yang Heshu asked her, "The conditions you gave are so good, do you also have requirements for them?"

Man Bao nodded, "I asked them to listen to us, as long as it is about everything in Zhuangzi, it will be divided into four or six."

Mrs. Tang didn't think this was a condition, "Don't the tenants just want to obey the master?"

After thinking about it, Man Bao said, "There is a difference between listening willingly and listening unwillingly."

The three were puzzled for a while.

Man Bao gave an example, "Mr. Zhuang gave me a copy of the Book of Changes to read, but I sat and read it all morning without reading the next two pages, and I didn't get into my head after reading it; but I myself Reading the book is different, I can read the second half of the book in the morning without blinking, and I can still remember it all."

Three people: ...

Man Bao said: "This is the difference between willing and unwilling."

Madam Tang held her back for a long time and asked, "Cultivation is not like reading, you need to use your brain."

Yang Heshu didn't agree with this either, saying, "Cultivation isn't all about brute force."

Man Bao was more direct, "Who said that people don't need their brains to grow the land? It means that they are unwilling to do so, so the food they grow is not as good as other people's."

Man Baodao: "There are several fields in my family that are close to other's. The soil strength is similar in front, back, left and right, but every year, whether it is wheat or rice, the harvest is a little better than others'. It's because my third brother is particularly good at farming."

She said: "This is the same as cooking. The same ingredients are made by my elder sister-in-law, and my second sister-in-law has a different taste. So it's not just reading, I feel that the world's Things are generally like this, they all use their brains and useless brains. They are willing to work for me, and the harvest is naturally different. "

"Even if I only account for 40% of the total, the more the total, the more I will share, and the more they will share. Isn't it better to win a win than me alone?"

Madam Tang was stunned for a moment, while Yang Heshu thought about it in her heart, and said to Man Bao, "You do it first, and see how your yield per mu will be in two years."

Man Bao nodded.

The magistrate Tang asked her more directly, "Tell me, what do you want to ask us?"

Man Bao just smiled, "Xuexiong Tang knows me."

She said sternly: "I wanted to buy some eggs for them to hatch chicks to raise, but Lijun looked for them and found that the eggs in the capital are very difficult to buy."

Not bad to buy, but a lot of bad to buy.

Man Bao is expected to raise twenty chicks for their family, and such a large number of eggs cannot be bought for a while.

Man Bao said to the magistrate Tang, "Brother Tang, can you help me find it?"

Master Tang didn't expect her to ask this, and was stunned for a while, "Where is my county magistrate going to find eggs for you?"

Man Bao said: "You are the county magistrate, shouldn't it be easy to find?"

"Who told you that the county magistrate is easy to find eggs?"

Man Bao directly turned to look at Yang Heshu.

Yang Heshu was full, he took a sip of tea, wiped the corner of his mouth after a while and said, "Leave this to me, how many do you want?"

Man Bao: "Two thousand?"

Yang Heshu just frowned and nodded, "You can just have someone send money over here."

Man Bao poured out a small piece of silver from his purse and said to him, "Well, three taels, no need to look for it."

Yang Heshu:  …

He just remembered, don't look at 2,000 eggs, it sounds like a lot, but it's really not that expensive. If you exchange three cents for two, there will be some left over if you convert three taels into copper coins.

Yang Heshu took the money and said, "If you don't take advantage of you, I will have someone send you the rest of the money."

Tang He was so curious, "Where did an official of your household go to buy eggs? You even bought eggs for them when you were the magistrate in Luojiang County?"

Yang Heshu said, "I not only bought them for them, but also helped them sell them."

How about saying he's a regular?
