When the autumn wind blows, Shen Xi can smell a good harvest even if he stretches his nose.

Nie Ji had already brought back two batches of day laborers from the county seat, and this was the third and last batch.

Every time, Shen Xi came to check the names and identities in person, and then took them to the place where they rested at night during this period, and then assigned them to the farmer in the field.

The short-term workers followed the farmer into the mountains to work during the day, and came back to eat and sleep at night.

In the first two years, Shen Xi would still feel that the names of peasant children were easy to get, what kind of two dogs and three girls, but now he has a good impression of the rustic names.

At the end of Shen Xi's shout, a person named "A Hui" jumped out of the name book, which was very different from the previous style.

The strong man whose name was called came out, his body was quite clean in linen and rough cloth, a bun tied with a blue ribbon behind his head, he had a beard and was a little rough, his hands were rolled up to his arms, and his muscles were so smooth. Obviously, it looks like a rough job.

Shen Xi glanced at him, but said nothing.

The day laborers have all gone to the mountains to harvest rice, and the harvested rice is waiting for the farmers to thresh in bundles.

The Mid-Autumn Festival came early this year, and every household wants to finish the autumn harvest earlier and spend the Mid-Autumn Festival peacefully.

Shen Xi drove a donkey cart to the mountains and found that most of the fields had already been half harvested.

Fenglu Mountain Villa harvests [-]% of the rice for itself, and the other part for the farmer.This year, the prince's tax is [-]% lower, and he only pays [-]%.The remaining [-]% was sold to grain merchants.

There are two grain merchants in Fufeng County, and there is a grain merchant from Jingzhao County next door who has business dealings with Shen Xi.

Shen Xi has always done the harvesting by himself, with the help of Nie Ji two years ago, he was able to handle it.

But this year, relying on just two people might not be enough, Shen Xi thought to himself that he still had to find someone to help.

He returned to the villa, and asked the busy farmer: "Is there anyone here who went to school and studied, and now remembers and recognizes them?"

A farmer laughed out loud when he heard this, and said to Shen Xi, "Master Shen, you are joking! If we still remember how to count, why are we still farmers here?"

Shen Xi also smiled, "That's right, but you should help me to ask, if there is, let him come to me."

Farmers nodded.

After Shen Xi explained these things, it was already time for dinner.

In the villa, all those with families came over and called their husband to eat.

Shen Xi, who is still single now, followed Nie Ji and a few farmers to eat Yangchun noodles in the big dining hall next to the villa.

Although Shen Xi is the owner of their Fenglu Villa, he really has no airs and can always get along with the farmers.

Everyone sat in the dining hall without any rules, with a bowl of noodles in front of each other.

Shen Xizheng told Nie Ji who was sitting on the side that he wanted someone who knew numbers to help, and Nie Ji agreed.

Just as he was talking, a strong man came over with a noodle bowl and sat down on the bench opposite Shen Xi.

The strong man still had a smile on his face, and there was sweat on his cheeks from working during the day. He smiled at Shen Xi and showed his white teeth.

He said: "I heard that Master Shen was not in good health a while ago. I don't know if Master Shen's health has improved recently?"

Shen Xi looked up, that smiling face seemed familiar, the angle of the corner of his mouth was just right, and there was a hint of banter in his tone of voice.

He didn't chew the noodles he held in his mouth, and sprayed it all on the face of the person opposite.

Prince? ! ! !
