Across the Far Mountain Tea Farmers

The emperor's order must be carried out meticulously.

The county magistrate of Longzhou bared his teeth, and just after the end of the new year, he summoned the government servants and posted employment notices in the county.This time, the mountain road was built from the emperor's private treasury. Simply put, it can be understood as the emperor's personal behavior.Since it is a personal act, it cannot occupy the corvee quota of the year.

Longzhou County has a small population, and the annual corvee quota is only enough to barely maintain the roads of Longmenguan and Fucheng, as well as the dredging of some rivers.The mountain roads in the [-]-mile mountain are intricate, and the emperor doesn't need to talk about road construction. Every county magistrate of Longzhou is doing it, and it is only to this extent now.

On the one hand, there is a lack of people, and on the other hand, there is a lack of money.

The county magistrate of Longzhou saw so much money for the first time.His eyes were shining, and the master beside him was also shining.But when he thought that the money belonged to the emperor, he lost his mind.

This Longzhou County is obviously poor and remote, but one Buddha after another cannot afford to offend.

The movement of the county magistrate of Longzhou is really too big.Not to mention the entire county, even Fucheng has heard of it.

Although Longzhou County is a poor place, there are quite a few rich people. Besides the local wealthy households, there are also many rich households in the village who have made their fortunes elsewhere.No one knows better than these people how many resources there are in the [-]-mile mountain.

Those precious medicinal materials, wood, rare birds and animals, and rare flowers have always been subject to the sinister geographical environment, so the pearls have been dusted.Not to mention anything else, in the past year or so, the roads in and out of the mountains in Dacha Village have been improved a lot because of the Xiong family.

In fact, the Xiong family did not build roads on purpose.However, it was inevitable for their family to take a donkey cart and make some repairs to inappropriate places.After walking for more than a year, the horse-drawn carriage can now go, but it is a little bumpy and the speed is a little slower.

This bit of trouble can't stop literati, or other people who have a city in their hearts.

There is a bear family in Dacha Village.What does the bear family have?The Xiong family has a well-known killing general in Qi, as well as the close disciple and grandson of Mr. Yao Da, a great master who has just passed away. This has enough benefits.

The road leading to Dacha Village was the first to be repaired.The amount of work is the smallest, the difficulty is also the lowest, but the investment is really a lot.

The villagers of Dacha Village are also duty-bound.The strong men who have improved slightly, if they were not under the pressure of Hua Yong for recuperation, they would have gone to pick stones long ago.

Wen Lun took Yao Qing to serve tea to the road construction workers.Most of these people are villagers, and there are also a few civilian husbands recruited by the county government.

Wen Lun spent a lot of materials to make tea last year.These real rough teas are all piled up, and since the spring tea is about to start, these old teas are not easy to sell.There are also few eggs in the mountains. Cuilian boiled tea eggs once a winter and they were exhausted.Just took advantage of this opportunity to clear the warehouse.

In the past few days, cultural classes in schools in the village were suspended, and a group of little ghosts, led by Mr. Xiao, brought tea to the workers along the way with tea bowls.

Wen Lun looked at the busy scene, a little carelessly.

If you want to be rich, build roads first.After the road is built, it will naturally drive the local economy?He looked at the dilapidated village.At this time, the mountain forest has just turned green, and fine grass is struggling to grow on the roof and walls of the adobe houses.

People come to this kind of place, what can they develop?Charity?

The concept of farmhouse is not uncommon.But in this day and age, even in Fucheng, there are so many people who grow vegetables and shallots in their own yards. What is there in this big tea village?In other words, how can this make this big tea village more beautiful and more able to retain people?

Before Wen Lun's scumbag brain could come up with a reason, Zhang Matchmaker strode forward and appeared in front of Wen Lun almost like flying.Wen Lun, a frail scholar, couldn't hold back Matchmaker Zhang's strength at all, and was immediately taken aside.

Yao Qing was about to get started, but found that Wen Lun was only taken away ten steps away. He stared at the two of them with big eyes, and then started making tea again.

Matchmaker Zhang didn't notice Yao Qing's expression, her slightly rich face almost dripped with worry: "Young Master Wen, there is really nothing you can do about it, old lady, I beg you."

Wen Lun was puzzled: "Wait, you talk about things first."

Matchmaker Zhang hurriedly said: "It's still the two twin daughters of Tie Datou's family. If you don't accept them, you will die."

The corner of Wen Lun's mouth twitched: "If you don't accept it, don't talk about it." There is no reason to put yourself in a good deed, "You tell the matter first."

Matchmaker Zhang is also a straightforward person, and she explained the ins and outs clearly in a few words.

Things are not too complicated.In the eight hundred miles of mountains, a family like Tie Datou's who can raise two daughters to adulthood is already considered good.But it is true that it does not mean how good their life can be, it is just that they will not die of hunger.Fortunately, the two daughters look juicy, but what's the use of juicy?There are few people in the mountains who can afford to marry.Last year, the two daughters were already fourteen. If they can't get married again on the fifteenth this year, they will become old girls.Unfortunately, Tie Datou broke his leg.This time, the whole sky collapsed.

Wen Lun couldn't understand at all how a 15-year-old junior high school student turned into an old girl.But: "The solution is not nothing."

Matchmaker Zhang blinked her eyes, and responded: "Yes, how long do you think it will take for two girls to give birth to two children for you two? If three to five years is too little, seven or eight years will be enough."

Wen Lun was speechless, and his tone of voice was a little irritable when he spoke again: "I don't need to talk about this matter." Can't understand people's words?

Matchmaker Zhang jumped like a rabbit, looked at Wen Lun anxiously, and dared not speak.He is obviously a scholar who can even lift her up with one hand, why does he look so scary?

Wen Lun rubbed his forehead: "There are many workers in our tea factory..."

Zhang Matchmaker's eyes lit up when she heard the words, and asked repeatedly: "How many people are there? How old? Where are they from? How much money can the tea factory make a year? How much can you get for a hundred dollars to marry a daughter-in-law? Can you come out? Are there any elders in the family? Are there any requirements for the dowry?"

Matchmaker Zhang didn't mention the age gap that Wen Lun was worried about the first time.It is better to be able to marry someone decently than to give birth to a child under the pretext of others.Besides, the tea factory workers are good!What can be produced in this mountain?Not to mention the Junxian Tea House, but the people in this big tea village have planted a few tea trees. I heard that this winter I didn’t feel very hungry, and even read books.

The girls in the mountains, if they can marry into the big tea village, they will not worry about a bad life.This is much easier than marrying into the county seat.

Wen Lun didn't understand these things, so he asked Yao Qing to find Butler Zhao.

Upon hearing the request, Steward Zhao turned around and gestured to Matchmaker Zhang: "Matchmaker Zhang, come here, let's sit down and talk slowly. Would you please tell me about the situation of the girl in hand first?"

"Hey, good." Zhang Matchmaker also didn't care about Chunhan, and pulled her sleeves apart as soon as she flicked them.

Wen Lun was interrupted by Matchmaker Zhang, thought of some ideas, and turned to find the village head and Hua Yong.

The two of them were not as idle as Wen Lun, but with Wen Lun's status, they could only listen, and the more they listened, their eyes widened.

Hua Yong patted his thigh: "Good advice, Eldest Young Master!"

The village chief was so excited that his whole body trembled, he knelt down on the ground with a puff, kowtowed three times, then turned around and ran away wiping his face.

Wen Lun was taken aback.

Hua Yong smiled and said, "You don't have to be offended, young master. You just pointed out a way out for Dacha Village."

The idea that Wen Lun came up with was not surprising.In modern times, they are all played badly.He couldn't think of a way for a while, it would definitely be unrealistic to renovate the big tea village and build all new houses.You can't make a fuss about the living environment, you can only make a fuss about the field.

As long as something has a scale, as long as it is not too weird, it is hard to see where it is going, and there are gimmicks to talk about.

Although the medicine garden was entrusted to Huayong to take full responsibility, Wen Lun, as the actual boss, always knew a little bit.Huayong's mentality is very stable, and he only plants common varieties in the mountains.Of course, it is common in the mountains, but it does not mean that it is common in other places.In the medicine garden, except for a small piece of land that Huayong took care of personally, almost as an ancestor, there were not many varieties of herbs in the remaining fields.

One of these is honeysuckle.

There are as many honeysuckle flowers as weeds in the mountains.It can't be sold for much, but it has been excellent in cooling and detoxification.

Wen Lun is to plant honeysuckle on the ridges of the whole village!

Before Qingming, a section of the mountain road leading to Dacha Village in Longzhou County had been completely repaired.Nowadays, even a carriage can go all the way relatively smoothly.Every other section of the road, there is a short section of wider road that allows two carriages to pass interchangeably, and there are large flat bluestones for people to rest for a while.

The villagers of Dacha Village have undergone a series of intensive pre-job training, and they are all serious at this moment.The tricksters' faces were all put away. After the strict training of Butler Zhao and the one-on-one instruction from Bihe, the villagers looked simple and honest, with bright and sincere smiles on their faces.Although the clothes are worn out, they are clean and tidy.

The cooking of the women has been guided by Cuilian.Do nothing else, wild vegetables in the mountains in spring, game in the mountains!

The disorderly piled adobe house has also changed its previous appearance, everything has been tidied up, and some wild flowers and weeds have been dug from the mountains and placed inside and outside the door.The three of them, Cuilian, Bihe and Li Er, made a small adjustment to the decoration of the entire village.

Not to mention, they also feel comfortable after cleaning up like this.The point is, the village head said that doing so can make money!

What could be more important than making money?No!

Can you make money in the village?This opportunity must be seized!

Anyone who comes to the village stays, and so does the money!

No one came?How can it be?The county master is coming tomorrow, will anyone else come?
