The King of Grain in the World Through Time Traveling

The next day, Li Yanhui came to the village chief's house again.

"Uncle Hong, I'm going to trouble you again." Li Yan replied with a smile.

The village chief said kindly, "Yanhui, just tell us if you have anything to do. We have received the county magistrate's warrant, and we will fully cooperate with you."

Li Yan was surprised in her heart that the brothers of the Du family are still doing things vigorously and resolutely, so she smiled, "How many labors are there in our village now?"

The village head did the math and said, "Except for those who haven't finished their farming work and those who are working for you, there are not many left, but only a dozen people. Most of the dozen people are lazy people, and some of them are I don’t want to go to your place for special reasons.”

special reason?Li Yanhui suddenly thought that more than half of Jiang's family had never worked in his family, and that Liu Damai's family beat Jiang Dayan to death. Forget it, if others don't come, he can't force it.

Then he said to the village chief, "Since the labor force in this village is not enough, let's recruit it from Maixiang Village next door."

The village head asked him curiously, "Yanhui, what are you trying to do again? There are not enough people in the whole village for you."

Li Yan smiled back, "Don't ask the village chief, anyway, it's a good thing, and you will know it in the spring of next year."

"You guys are still making a mystery, okay." The village head agreed with a smile, "Tomorrow I will go to Maixiang Village and talk to the village head Huang of their village."

"Then I will go with the village chief." Li Yan replied.

Because the family's ox cart was used by Zhou Ping to deliver goods every day, without means of transportation, Li Yanhui and the village chief had to walk.

Li Yan was young and vigorous, and he had been washed by divine water. This mountain road was nothing at all, but the village chief couldn't do it anymore. He was already old, and he was out of breath after walking a few steps.

Li Yan looked back at the dilapidated mountain road, and it seemed that road construction was an urgent matter.

When they came to Maixiang Village, Village Chief Hong explained the whole story. Village Chief Huang Kaiben was very enthusiastic, and he was busy moving stools and pouring water for the two of them.

The villagers in Maixiang Village are also getting worse every year. Many young and strong men can't stay in the village and have to go out to make a living. Most of the people who stay in the village are old and frail, or dragging their families. You can't leave home with your mouth.Village head Huang has also received orders from the county magistrate, and also heard from village head Hong that he is not happy to find jobs for the villagers of Maixiang village.

"Young Master Li, what do you want the folks in Maixiang Village to do?" Village Chief Huang asked with a smile on his face.

"Village Chief Huang is too polite, just call me Yanhui." Li Yanhui said indifferently, "At present, I have a plan. Our Daoxiang Village and Maixiang Village are only separated by a mountain, and they are connected end to end. I am in Daoxiang Village. Xishan has opened a tea garden of about [-] mu, and the area is estimated to be a bit small, so we plan to extend it to Maixiang Village."

"Tea?" Village Chief Huang was a little dazed. It is said that this kind of precious thing is enjoyed by rich families, and poor people like them have never even looked at it.

"Yes, it's tea." Li Yanhui continued, "I made a calculation. If the tea field is extended, and then continue to expand westward, it is estimated that a hundred acres will not be a problem."

"So much!" Not only Village Chief Huang, but even Village Chief Hong was stunned, "A hundred acres? Is it too much?"

"No," Li Yanhui continued to throw a bomb, "Not only for tea, but also to the east of the village, at least a hundred acres will be opened, and it will also be connected with Maixiang Village. I plan to plant peach trees .”

Another hundred acres?The two village chiefs looked at each other, how much labor was needed!I'm afraid that the addition of the two villages will not be enough!

Li Yanhui saw their concerns, "I know that the combined labor force of the two villages cannot be completed before the end of the year, so I have to ask the two village chiefs to go to the next village to send some manpower. There is no problem in terms of remuneration." In the previous month, wages were settled on the same day, and from then on, it will be settled at the end of each month.” He made this arrangement because he considered that the villagers are currently in short supply, as long as they are willing to do it, they can see the money on the same day, and the economy can ease in a month. coming.

Having said that, the two village chiefs were all satisfied, and immediately went to the villages to inform them that the autumn harvest is over now, and people are idle and doing nothing. Once they hear that there is work to do, they can get paid on the same day. How can they not do it?

All of a sudden, the entire Dao Village was crowded with people, and it was very lively. The east end of the village and the west mountain were both busy.

It's just that there are too many people, and it is very troublesome to manage. At present, each village has to be supervised by its own village head, but most of these village heads are old, and sometimes they are really powerless.

Shen Minghui took care of the house, and Li Yanhui was very relieved.

It's just that since master and servant Jin Cheng left that day, they haven't seen each other for many days, and they don't know where they went.

For some reason, Zhou Yue was sick. Li Yan called him several times, but he was not in the mood and didn't know what he was thinking.It's just that these days are too busy, Li Yanhui can't take care of him anymore.

Early this morning, four or five people came to the gate of the courtyard, Li Yanhui didn't know any of them, and was in a daze.

One of the girls ran over and looked at him with bright eyes, "Brother-in-law, do you remember me?"
