Chapter 470 Summer Solstice to Beginning of Autumn

Tie Qing hurriedly walked around his field, adding vitality to all the crops, otherwise he was really afraid that the roots would be soaked in water.

The relatives also walked around, and my own family should not be too special.

In case one's own land is in good condition, but other people's land is flooded, this is too mythical.

But other people don't have his ability, and the situation in the field is not very optimistic. There is the owner of the low-lying land, who is scooping water out of the field.

At this moment, the whole village is worried about their own land.

When Tie Qing came back, he happened to meet Village Chief Wei, and the two chatted: "Fortunately, the heavy rain didn't continue this time."

"If you continue, you'll be flooded to death." Village Chief Wei's expression was not very good. There was a low-lying land in their house, which was full of water, and the corn seedlings were almost submerged. He scooped a lot of water out.

The river on the east side of the village is full of water, which is really rare to see. Fortunately, the bridge in their village is a stone bridge. When the house was built with green iron, the wooden bridge was changed into a stone bridge, and it was raised a little higher. Not submerged by river water.

Where did they think so much before?

Now I have to rejoice that Tie Qing is too foresighted.

I heard that the wooden bridge in Liushu Village ahead was submerged by the river.

"Yes, the harvest will definitely be affected." Tie Qing was also a little unhappy, but in this era, natural disasters and man-made disasters are inevitable.

Since he came here, he has been able to keep the weather going smoothly until now, which is already very much loved by God.

"It doesn't matter, as long as we don't stop harvesting, our village mainly relies on the farm to make money." Wei Village head said: "This year is still a year of taxation. As long as the harvest in the field is enough to eat, other money can be obtained from the farm. Earn in the caravan."

As soon as he said that, Tie Qing understood: "That's true."

Although the rain was a little heavier and the crops would definitely decrease, the people in Shulin County were not worried about not being able to eat enough.

In addition to entertaining caravans and merchants at home, they can also go to the county town to find work.

The county seat is being expanded, and it has been expanded to the south by an area almost the size of two county seats.

Moreover, the road was repaired and widened. It used to take a day to drive an ox cart to reach the county seat, but now it can be reached in half a day.

The outskirts of the county seat are now almost Shulin County, and the distance between them is less than ten miles.

Reconstruction of the county seat is a big project, and the imperial court presided over the construction. At this time, it is estimated that the imperial court is not ready to accept it, so for a month's work, the reward is [-] copper coins and [-] catties of corn.

This corn is a corn stick. Turning around, you have to rub the corn particles yourself and then grind them into powder.

Although the amount given is small, if a strong laborer saves food and expenses, he can feed a family of three or five people. He can't eat enough, but he will never starve to death.

If there is food at home, these corns can also be sold for money, or they can tell their superiors that they want copper coins but not grain.

"I heard that many people come to our place looking for work." Village Chief Wei gossips with Tie Qing: "We don't like those three melons and two dates, and the people outside squeeze their heads."

They did have the confidence to receive the caravans coming and going, as well as the tea sheds they set up, and their earnings were not less than what they earned from hard work for a year of farming.

"How about the tea shed?" Tie Qing saw that there were several farms, and the people who came were old people or children, most of them were family members.

"Business is going well, and many caravans are passing by. This is probably the peak season for trading, right? They all rushed to the county town." Village head Wei said: "But when they pass by, they must have a rest and buy some Food, especially at this time, noodles and Liangpier are the most suitable for them."

"Then there are only two stalls that sell better." Tie Qing was a little worried that there were not many tricks and everyone made less money.

"There are quite a few. There are two noodle stalls, one for hand-rolled noodles and the other for stretched noodles, but several of them have different stews." Village head Wei said: "For example, egg stew, there are sauced egg stew, Persimmon egg stew, chili egg sauce...; meat stew is also divided into several families, otherwise there is not so much capital, chicken stew, beef stew, mutton stew..."

It turned out that the noodles they dealt were not counted, and the brines were classified into different categories. In addition, Xiao Laoliu and Xiao Laoba's family who dealt with Liangpi turned out to be the two who joined hands to occupy the right to buy and sell Liangpier.

It is said that Liangpier is still a food brought by Tie Qing. The Tie family does not do business by itself, so Brother Xiao asked the Sixth and Eighth Uncles to make this. This thing only needs to be sold for one summer.

Don't delay the work in the field.

In addition, in addition to the noodles, there are also rice skins in Liangpier. The method is similar, but because rice is used, most people can't afford it, so the village head's family has started the rice skin business.

Lao Sun's family sells soy milk in the tea shed all year round, and a copper coin is enough to drink.

A spoonful of soft white sugar needs a copper plate. When ordinary people drink soy milk, they will ask for a spoonful of soft white sugar.

"You've all come up with tricks." Tie Qing shook his head.

These people, who used to be honest guys, have obviously become oily now.

"No way, everyone wants to make money, but there are only a few ways to make money in our village. To be fair, everyone must be fair." Village head Wei smiled: "When you built the tea shed, you asked for so much. The tea shed needs to be on a high terrain, have good drainage, and need to be built firmly so that the wind and rain cannot penetrate. At first we all hated the trouble you made, and some people complained in private that just build a shed casually. Now, They don't say anything!"

This time it was raining, their tea shed was heading towards the county seat, and there were some small shacks built by some people privately at a distance, all of which were blown away by the strong wind before the rain, and there was also a tea shop in the county, which was specially set up here I set up a tea stall, usually boil water, and then make tea with high foam for people. A pot of this kind of tea costs a penny!

They don't pay much attention to hygiene, and they suffered heavy losses this time. Their tea stalls were soaked in rainwater.

Fortunately there were no casualties.

But forget about tea and snacks.

Those who ran the stalls all went home drenched.

After so many days, only the tea shed in Yushu Village can shelter from the wind and rain, and there is also a large warehouse where the caravan can temporarily stop and rest.

And because of the rain, many caravans dare not take risks. What if their goods are soaked by the rain?Especially some caravans dealing in silk cloth.

So much so that the temporary warehouse next to the tea shed in Yushu Village was full.

"Before you were asked to build a temporary warehouse, you all thought it was useless, have you seen this time?" Tie Qing laughed: "When those caravans come over in the future, they will definitely choose us to settle here first."

The two talked all the way before going back to their respective homes.

But the working area is as Tie Qing thought, the stalls in other places are not so particular, and a heavy rain may wash away their tea stalls, but the tea sheds in Yushu Village are clean and dry.

There is also a large warehouse that can shelter from wind and rain for caravans.

Those caravans who once ignored Yushu Village, or violated the rules of Yushu Village, regret it to death!

After Tie Qing came back, he said to Brother Xiao: "Now, many caravans know about our village."

"Should have known." Brother Xiao opened all the windows in the house to ventilate. The sun outside was like a fire, and there was a layer of heat wave on the ground, and the temperature rose again after the cold, and the water in the field was quickly evaporated. Lost.

Brother Xiao took the opportunity to wash all the sheets and quilts in the family, and then dried all the quilts: "It has been raining for several days, and I am afraid that our quilts will become moldy and damp."

Tie Qing helped dry the quilts, and chatted with his husband while working: "After the autumn harvest this year, the contracts with the long-term workers will also expire, why not lease the land to them for planting, we only need [-]% of the income, and the rest Whatever they want."

Twenty percent is a very small rent.

Generally, it is [-]% to [-]%, and there are also half-and-half of the cruel-hearted tenants.

And excluding taxes, tenants still have to pay tax and food, and in the end, tenants will have about [-]-[-]% of the food left to barely make ends meet.

It's good to have a good year, and you can be a little rich.

In a disaster year, it is really impossible to survive.

"Okay, you can arrange this matter." Brother Xiao said: "It's fine to rent it out, our family is not short of money, and we also have food. You can't do it if you are so busy all day."

The most important thing is that farm work is really tiring.

Brother Xiao is a person who has done farm work, he knows this kind of tiredness, he doesn't want his family life to be so good, and his husband is so tired.

Besides, the long-term workers are all good-tempered people, and they will not harm their family's land casually.

"I think Tie Dan'er is in good health, shall we go to Fucheng next year?" Tie Qing suggested: "We can also go to the market outside the Great Wall."

He wanted to take Fulang and the child out for a walk.

He has lived in this world for more than ten years. After staying in one place for a long time, he wants to go out for a walk.

"Okay!" Xiao Geer was happy, and his crescent-like smiling eyes were even more beaming: "The four of us are going out for a walk."

Tie Qing nodded: "Yeah!"

Now that the couple had made such a plan, Tie Qing began to think about what to do with his family's land, and he planned to entrust the family to Tie Li and his wife.

At the same time, Tie Qing also wanted to build a large carriage to accommodate his husband and children.

At least it must not be too bumpy, and the inside must be soft, so that Fu Lang will not suffer when he is on the road with the child.

Tie Qing is busy every day for this matter.

In the scorching summer, Liangpier became popular again. The Liangpier of Tie Qing's family is not only noodle skin but also rice skin.

Now the cold dishes in the house appear on the dining table every day. This evening, when eating dinner, Brother Xiao whispered to Tie Qing: "The heavy rain a few days ago made it waterlogged, and it's hot again these days." Wake up, it hasn’t rained for almost half a month.”

The weather is hot in summer, even when it is flooded, there is water in the ground, but these days have passed, and the water in the ground has long since disappeared without a trace.

In the hot, dry and cloudless summer, people are going to be sunburned.

"It's not a big deal, it's almost the beginning of autumn." Tie Qing picked up a cold salad with chopsticks for brother Xiao, and their cold salad put a lot of chicken shreds in it.

Because Uncle Jin thinks that everyone can't eat too greasy food in summer, he specially made this cold dish with chicken shreds in it, so that everyone can eat some meat anyway.

And the chicken is not greasy.

"I'm just so hot that I don't have much energy." Brother Xiao bowed his head to eat: "The child is also too hot and doesn't like to eat."

Tie Qing glanced at Brother Shan, it was okay, Brother Shan ate a bowl of rice today.

Tie Dan'er doesn't like to eat hot food, but likes to eat cold green dishes.

And when Tie Daner eats, he uses an auxiliary spoon, the kind used by children. He walks around the rice and eats very seriously, even though the table is full of rice grains.

What he ate was small rice and scrambled eggs specially made by Uncle Jin.

In such a hot weather, adults are listless, let alone children.

"It's okay, it'll be fine when it cools down in a few days." Tie Qing could only comfort Fu Lang in this way.

Sure enough, on the day of the Beginning of Autumn, it was rare for the family to eat dumplings stuffed with pork and green onions. Grab the autumn fat, and then the weather really cooled down.

More than that, probably due to the excessive rain this year, the autumn cabbage grows especially big this year!

Tie Qing took a look and couldn't laugh or cry: "So big?"

"This is the cabbage king of this year's autumn cabbage!" Lao Xiao boss rarely came out to watch the excitement: "Old Qiao's family is prosperous!"

"What's so rich!" Qiao Daqing smiled modestly: "My house is a low-lying land. I didn't think so much when I planted cabbage. Who knew that the rain was so heavy that there was water in the nearby land. I thought The cabbage here is about to rot."

As a result, the autumn cabbages in their field were all alive, and they grew very large. Among them, two Chinese cabbages absorbed a little more water, and they were one and a half times larger than the Chinese cabbages next to them. portion.

Almost half of them are coming.
