I opened a restaurant in ancient times

Soon, it will be the day of autumn harvest, and the various grains planted in the earlier days will also mature.He heard from Zhang Qiao that when the grain was harvested, people from the government would come to collect the grain tax.

However, in Dahe Village, the village chief often presides over this matter and organizes the villagers to prepare together.

People from the government generally don't like this errand. They have to travel back and forth to several villages every day, and they are very tired. If there is not some money to be made, no one will take the errand.

Because the village head had prepared the food tax before they came, so as not to make another trip to each of their households, the people in the government stopped embarrassing others, and left here only after collecting the food tax. In previous years, among the surrounding villages, Dahe Village gave the least gifts to tax collectors.

At this time, the wheat in the field was already ripe. When Zhao Heng came with a few children, he saw yellow patches of grain by the roadside.

Because they were still young, they were a little excited, running non-stop along the way, laughing and making noise.They came from the main road this time, so they didn't have to worry about tripping over stones. Seeing how happy they were, Zhao Heng didn't stop them.

After a few people arrived at Zhao Heng's yard in the village, they all went into the house to play with Zhao Haha.After giving Brother Ning a few words, Zhao Heng went out.

He didn't intend to let these children help him collect food.

When he first came here, there was still a piece of land allocated by the government. Although it could only be used for one year, what he had grown before was only some vegetables, which matured faster than ordinary grain.

It is precisely because only a few vegetables have been planted that it is easier to harvest the land. He has taken a sickle before, and he is not angry at this time. When the vegetables grown on this small piece of land are harvested, Zhao Heng will send the vegetables to After returning home, he went out.

It was still early at this time, and it was not yet noon, so there were busy people everywhere in the village.

Autumn harvest has always been the busiest and hardest time for farmers. Although everyone has other jobs to earn money, what the older generation cares about is land.

As long as there is land, food can always be grown.The tax collectors will be coming in two days, so they have to harvest the grain quickly, and autumn is prone to rainy days, so they not only have to keep the grain harvest clean, but also ensure their quality.

The land of Jiang Yuan's family is not far from his, but it is located in the same large piece of land as the villagers in the village.

Father Jiang is a hunter, so Jiang Yuan is also a hunter. Originally, according to the law, he was not allowed to own land. Double the price, you can also buy idle land in the village.

Although Father Jiang is a hunter, he has never learned how to work as a hunter. He only learned carpentry when he was young, so they saved a lot of money to buy this land.

Although the land is not too big, I have already found some other jobs, so I don't have to worry about making a living.

"Hey, why are you here?" He had seen the person who said this before, and it was the old man Liu who lived at the entrance of the village.He didn't have any impression of this old man Liu, he only vaguely remembered that he was the only one in his family.

Although he didn't know each other, Zhao Heng still answered him with a smile: "I'm here to help others collect food."

Seeing what he said, old man Liu also understood that the young man didn't want to talk too much, so he nodded and bent down to think that he had children and only worked on himself.

At this time, many people were still busy harvesting grain in the field, Zhao Heng looked up and walked towards Jiang Yuan.They were already engaged, so it was only natural for them to help the family with the autumn harvest.

Jiang Yuan was bent over and busy collecting grain, but he didn't notice anyone coming. Not far from him, it was Father Jiang and Grandmother Jiang. The three of them harvested grain together, and they could finish harvesting in a day or two. , so I am busy now, and I don't know what it is.

Just as Father Jiang got up to wipe off his sweat, he saw Zhao Heng out of the corner of his eye.He smiled and said, "Why did you come here? I remember that your house also has land, have you collected it yet?"

"It's over, everything is settled, I'm idle and I'm idle, so I just want to come and help out, so I can rest early after finishing the collection."

Aunt Jiang and Jiang Yuan who were not far away both heard their speech and hurried over, Jiang Yuan said to him: "You..."

Father Jiang interrupted him: "You two go and sit by the side and have a rest. You have been busy all morning, drink some water and rest for a while, and you are engaged. You are not in a hurry to talk at this moment. He has to take this opportunity to chat with Zhao Heng." chat.

Watching the two people enter the field with heavy sickles, Aunt Jiang took out the water bottle she was carrying, handed it to Jiang Yuan, and said with a smile, "Brother Yuan, drink some water."

"En." Jiang Yuan took it, took a few sips, and said to Aunt Jiang: "Aunt, what do you think they are talking about?"

In the distance, the two looked up from time to time for a conversation, vaguely seeing the curious expressions on their faces, and couldn't help but ask their mother.

Seeing Jiang Yuan looking there from time to time, Aunt Jiang couldn't help laughing, it must be your father who wants to talk to him, after all, our brother Yuan will marry someone else in the future! "

"Mother!" Jiang Yuan Xinxin picked up the sickle in his hand and went into the field without talking.

Seeing him like this, Aunt Jiang smiled and shook her head, and got up to follow him: "Brother Yuan, when he came to propose marriage, we said that the date of marriage should be set after the autumn harvest, and after a while, we will probably have to wait for it." Ready to get married."

This young man has no parents and doesn't understand these things, so Aunt Jiang has to worry about getting married so that the two young people don't get in a hurry.

"Well, I know."

After saying this, Aunt Jiang didn't know what to say anymore, she just lowered her head and thought about the future of Brother Yuan from time to time.

When they get married, if they are lucky, they will be able to hug their grandson in a short time. Thinking of the fat and white baby, the smile on Aunt Jiang's face becomes more conspicuous, which makes Jiang Yuan full of doubts.

The field of Jiang Yuan's family is not too big, so people bent over and busy can be seen everywhere on this land, and they are considered quiet at the far end.

After another day or two, when everyone in the village had harvested the grain, it was the day when the village chief had planned to collect the grain tax.

Under the big banyan tree in the village, people came from almost every household. Zhao Heng's land was only valid for one year, and he was a refugee. He was not required to pay the grain tax for this year.

This time, he came with Jiang Yuan's family.Looking around, there are large and small burdens beside him, and the bamboo baskets are full of food.

The village head has already.Each household needs to pay taxes according to the number of people in the family.

The more people in the family, the more land will be allocated, and the more taxes will be paid naturally. Conversely, the same is true if the family is small.Now, the villagers are honestly bearing their names.

They waited in place for a while for their names.Paying your taxes is simple, so it doesn't take long to stand out from the crowd.
