The Reborn Wife is Farming

Lingnan suddenly calmed down. Unlike the uproar a few days ago when the government went to the countryside to seize rice seeds, the redistribution of seeds seemed very peaceful at this time.

But everyone knew that this was the calm before the storm. It was impossible for the Rongjun Palace to swallow this loss, and the court was also unwilling to suffer this loss.

Farmers' crops were replaced, and the culprit, the legendary Qin Erye, disappeared without a trace. Who will bear the consequences?

If it was the previous dynasty or any court, the farmers whose rice seeds were replaced might have to swallow this bitter fruit by themselves, because the Fengshou Grain Shop that sold the rice seeds was right, and the Yamen was not responsible, and they couldn't catch "Second Lord Qin" ", can only suffer from this.

But now the Fengshou Grain Shop and Yamen are redistributing seeds to them. Although more than half of the No. 1 dry rice is directly missing, it is other rice or corn seeds, but they are also very content.

But will Fengshou Grain Shop and Yamen have to bear the cost of the second seed?

It is impossible for anyone to bear it in silence, so the tranquility at this time is very disturbing. Not only the middle and upper class, but also small merchants and hawkers on the street are paying attention to the news of Rongjun Wangfu and Yamen, for fear of missing any news.

In this almost suffocating atmosphere, a few gentry with ghosts in their hearts are even more uncomfortable. They feel that they will lose at least five years of life after this incident. Is it too difficult?

Wei Shishen regretted it even more. He shouldn't have agreed to this matter at the beginning. Now he can't get off the pirate ship. Once the Rongjun Palace finds out that they are colluding with outsiders and digging up the wall, the Rongjun King will definitely tear them to pieces. Thousands of paragraphs.

Thinking of Qi Haoran's brutal reputation in Western Xia, Wei Shishen's legs were shaking while sitting on the chair.

Qian Shishen looked down on Wei Shishen's appearance very much, and said: "The matter has been done, what's the use of Wei Shixiong regretting it now? It's better to think about how to solve it."

"You didn't say you would be discovered at the beginning!" Wei Shishen said angrily: "When you persuaded us with the second master Qin, you said that if the seeds are replaced, people will not be discovered. When the rice is harvested in autumn, they will also I can only suspect that it is the problem of Dry Rice No. 1 itself, but the seeds were discovered as soon as they germinated, once this matter is known to the Rongjun Palace, will we still have a way out?"

Tan Xiangshen looked at the two of them, and said after deliberation: "It's not that bad, after all, they couldn't find evidence, and now they haven't found us..."

Wei Shishen sneered, "How do you know they didn't find out? Maybe they are holding back now, evidence? Hmph, with the power of Rongjun Palace, do they need evidence to clean us up?"

Everyone was flustered by what he said. Seeing that he was instigating people's hearts, Qian Shishen's face darkened immediately, and he sneered: "Whoever he is, the queen of heaven and the queen of the earth, is it possible that he dares to arrest us without evidence? If you I'm afraid, why did you get on our boat? Don't rush forward when you smell the fragrance, and you will be scared when you see danger."

"You!" Wei Shishen stared at him with an ugly face, "Smell the fragrance? What fragrance is there at this time? The Harvest Grain Shop and the Yamen have transferred a large number of grain seeds. Even if they planted ten days late, the harvest will not be as good as Where do we go, except for the upland rice No. 1 that we took the risk to plant in the ground, what else do we get? But which of us lacks a few catties of rice? What we value is the ground, not the seeds!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at Qian Shishen with some resentment. Qian Shishen fell down in anger. He didn't force them to board the boat with a knife, but when something happened, they all relied on him.

But in the hearts of Wei Shishen and others, Qian Shishen is the leader of this matter, if something goes wrong, who should we turn to?

It was Qian Shishen who brought Qin Erye to see them at the beginning, and agreed that they would help Qin Erye hide the news and clear up the traces, and Qin Erye would share 30% of the rice seeds he got with them. Of course, the 30% had to be bought with money.

But are they looking at rice seeds?

No, I can’t buy enough rice this year, and I can keep enough for myself next year and the next year. They are looking at the land of those farmers who have lost their harvest!

When the rice harvest is exhausted, they have to sell the land in autumn when the taxes are collected. This is a good time for them to buy land.

There is no way, the emperor of Daqi and the king of Rongjun are too ruthless. The emperor made a law that every household whose land property exceeds 200 mu cannot open up unclaimed wasteland, and can only buy it.

However, when Xixia ravaged Lingnan back then, they lost a lot of land deeds when they fled, and those lands that were randomly closed due to the war and had not yet had time to sign a deed in the Yamen were all distributed by Qi Haoran to the exiled people and the lost land. farmers.

They didn't spend money enclosing land, but they did spend money to buy officials. They had already earned a fortune, but they returned to the original starting point in a blink of an eye.

How are they willing?

But Daqi is not like Dazhou. Land cannot be bought and sold casually. I wanted to take advantage of the establishment of the new dynasty and buy some land at a low price when the order was not stable. It is very strict, even if the seller is willing, if the conditions are not met, it will not be easy to pass the hurdle of the yamen, even if it is useless to pay the officials.

So Qian Shishen only clicked on the relationship with them, thinking that if those who were replaced by rice seeds during the autumn harvest could not pay the tax, they could only sell the land, and in order to receive the tax, the yamen would definitely not stop them from signing the contract , so I agreed.

Because Qian Shishen made a very clear analysis with them, they only targeted those farmers who couldn't recognize the seeds, and the rice seeds were all similar in size, and they were bought from grain shops, who would have thought that they were fake?

Take ten thousand steps back and say that even if they are discovered, the Yamen will not find any evidence against them. They paid for the rice seeds, and it can be said that they bought them with merchants in Jiangnan.

But when things came to an end, Wei Shishen and others were afraid. If traces were found in Rongjun Palace, would they really need evidence to question their crimes?

Or it could be that the peace in Juzhou these past few days made them even more flustered.

Wei Shishen and Qian Shishen had a quarrel, and when they returned home angrily, they bumped into the housekeeper head-on. He was knocked back two steps, but the housekeeper pulled him back in fear, "Master, are you alright, master?"

"Go away," Wei Shishen waved him away and said angrily, "Are you rushing to reincarnate?"

The housekeeper wiped off his sweat, and said submissively: "Little one, is the little one chasing someone?"

"Who are you chasing?" Wei Shishen asked casually.

The butler's face was pale, he carefully looked at Wei Shishen's face and said, "Go after Xixing."

Wei Shishen wanted to turn around and leave, but when he heard this, he paused, stared at the butler coldly, and asked, "Xi Xing escaped?"

"No, no, Xixing's elder brother, Xile, took money to redeem him. The younger one happened to be away at the time, so they begged his wife, and the wife agreed in a moment of resignation. Now Xile has taken his younger brother away, and the younger one is on his way. Going to chase it out."
