Chapter 527: Reclamation and Expansion of Grain Production
These two are cousins, both of whom have married and had children. The last time Yuntang saw their children, he also gave them amulets.
The clan chose them because one of them was from the clan leader's family and the other was from the clan elder's family. As the accountants she would use for important tasks, they would naturally be more reliable.
Not only does he have to be reliable in his work, he also has to have the support of his family, so that there can be no mistakes in the future.
Although it seemed that she arranged useful people in the clan to work for her, Yuntang understood the intention behind this.
In addition, there is a cousin, Jiang Minggang, who serves as the general manager and takes over all the farms and properties under the name of the Princess Protector of the Country.
Compared with the Imperial Teahouse and the Imperial Kitchen which were just his own private businesses, the land belonged to the mansion and was under the management of the Princess's Mansion. Steward Zheng and Accountant Chen would be involved.
Knowing that his father had arranged a manager for him to manage the land, Yuntang thought of clearing out a small courtyard in the front yard as a place for them to handle future affairs.
After all, this is government property, but it is not government affairs or household expenses, which are not something that Butler Zheng and Accountant Chen can directly manage. In other words, the cousin is on the same level as Butler Zheng and Accountant Chen.
Yun Tang thought about this and reminded him, "Uncle Minggang needs to arrange for a small manager and a small accountant to receive a salary from the mansion and set aside a courtyard for exclusive use."
"Farmland is not a shop. The output of each season is accounted for separately." Yun Tang thought and said a few more words.
"I'm usually not in the mansion, so Uncle Minggang will take care of it himself. The accounts must be clear. If there are any problems that are inconvenient to solve, please find Butler Zheng and Liu Changshi. Just tell me when I'm in the mansion."
The shop is a business, and now it’s not even open, so she has nothing to say.
But her uncle could buy and manage the land himself, so she didn't need to worry about it at all, so she had to make it clear at the beginning.
After saying this, she directly took out a silver note of 100,000 taels, and all the deeds of the hot spring villa and farm originally under her name.
He also said that the past account books were in Chen's account office, and could be handed over to my uncle today.
When they learned that she actually owned a hot spring villa, not only were the people in the clan shocked, even Marquis Yong'an was so sad that he almost cried.
He already knew that his daughter was extremely favored by the emperor, but the degree of her favor once again refreshed his perception.
Compared with the wealth of this daughter, their mansion looks more like a poor family from the countryside.
In his heart, he once again cursed those people who had mocked his daughter for being poor and rustic, when it was obvious that their mansion was poor!
Yuntang didn't notice what Marquis Yong'an was sad about at all. She was busy discussing the land matter with Jiang Minggang.
Of course, the 100,000 taels of silver notes were the starting capital for further purchases of land in the future.
After explaining the 100,000 taels, she took out another 100,000 taels and explained, "This is the capital for Ninth Senior Brother to buy the land."
"He has no time to do these things, so let Uncle Minggang arrange it together. Just buy a property near my land so that it will be convenient for us to manage it together in the future."
Jiang Minggang is not the clan leader or the clan elder, but he has twenty years of experience in helping the Marquis' Mansion manage the land. He has already trained a group of useful clan members under him.
This time, Marquis Yong'an chose him to help Yuntang manage the land because he was experienced, honest and kind but not stubborn and rigid, making him suitable to be a manager and handle things.
Compared with the small amount of land in the Marquis' Mansion, of course, coming to the Princess' Mansion to take over more land and the burden she can shoulder is more important.
As expected of a man with rich experience, Jiang Minggang did not lose his composure when faced with the two huge sums of silver bills given by Yuntang, and he soon came up with an idea to buy some land.
You can't buy land immediately after receiving the banknote. You need to cast a wide net and carefully screen out good land, and then wait for opportunities.
Now is the spring planting season. There is no famine near the capital, and most of the farms are in the hands of wealthy families, so they usually do not sell their farms.
Most of the fields in nearby villages and towns belong to scattered farmers. The number of fields owned by each farmer varies and is not large, so it is impossible to sell them casually.
However, the local government has wasteland and even barren hills, mountainous land, forest land, poor land and other resources that are difficult to buy and sell, and ordinary people will not buy them.
Because it takes three years to cultivate such land and fertilize it, it is considered fast.
But such land is cheap and can be bought in large quantities.
When it is difficult to buy a large amount of cultivated land and complete farms around the capital, you can look for barren mountain and forest resources that can be cultivated or planted with fruit trees, fruits, and livestock among these hard-to-sell lands.
Yuntang's eyes lit up when he heard this. He knew that this uncle was not content with idleness and his ideas were very far-sighted.
One hundred thousand taels of silver was a huge amount of money, but it was not enough to buy a farm outside the capital.
If you go further and focus on those cheap mountains, woods and wild lands that have not been cultivated yet, you can buy large tracts of them.
The uncle made this suggestion considering Yuntang's identity.
It takes three years to cultivate the land, clearing the wasteland while cultivating it, planting some coarse food suitable for the poor soil, and some fruit trees that originally took years to grow. After three years, you can gradually turn waste into treasure.
Yuntang is not short of money, so he has time to cultivate the land. It is like an investment, and he will be able to recover the cost in three years.
He thought so because there were also large tracts of barren mountains and farmland in Yuntang's southwestern fiefdom, which required a large amount of cultivation to produce food.
The snowstorm in the north and the war in the west caused serious food shortages for the people in these two areas.
Knowing that there were Taoist farmers in the North who had stored a large amount of grain and that the autumn harvest had already been harvested, Yuntang and his team still needed to run around buying grain and sending it over.
Taking all these factors into consideration, he considered a plan to reclaim wasteland and expand grain output.
After hearing his considerations, Yun Tang nodded in approval and said, "Uncle Minggang, go and do this. If you need help, you can continue to recruit from the clan. If you can't find anyone, you can ask the dental clinic to recruit people."
"I will spend more time at Yunshang Temple in the next two months. If you have any questions, you can consult with my father. If you need my decision, come to Yunshang Temple to find me."
"My ninth brother's money is used just like mine. He can buy whatever land I buy. I have the final say."
"While buying, you can recruit people to open up the wasteland. Opening up the wasteland is hard work, so don't pay too little. Pay attention to safety. This is a long-term plan, so proceed with caution."
Yuntang gave another reminder, but she did not directly say that she was not short of money. She only reminded them to be lenient to the farmers.
Of course, those who can go to reclaim wasteland are farmers who come out to find work during the slack season. Anyone who can work outside probably cannot bear the hardship of swinging hoes and shovels, carrying loads and baskets on their backs every day.
Jiang Minggang nodded seriously but excitedly, saying that he dealt more with farmers, tenants and farmhands, so he didn't need to.
After talking about the land, Yuntang looked at the other two families.
The family of Jiang Mingzhi, my uncle who took over the pastry workshop.
His two sons are both in their twenties. Together with his daughter-in-law, there are six working people in the family. He also has elderly parents and young children at home, so there are enough people to help with odd jobs.
Their family originally made some common pastries on the market and sold them, so it was just right to arrange for them to manage the pastry workshop.
