Chapter 337: Smoothly Buy
In fact, the people in the auction hall also knew that Qiu Congfu, who was embarrassed, was a little difficult to sell, so among the stewards and slaves, he was the finale, and then there was a series of subordinates and farmers on the Zhuangzi.
There is no shortage of people in the Han family, so Han Chuxue didn't make a move, and he didn't have any special characters in the picture.
When the farmer in the village was brought up, she was surprised.
Looking at the large group of people on the platform, Daddy Han was also dumbfounded, "Didn't you say that you just helped farm the land, why are there so many people?" ”
Yang Debiao sighed and said, "Han Xianggong, you don't know, I heard that there are five Qiu Congfeng Farm, two orchards, one hemp garden, and two mulberry gardens, and they are not small, I heard that the youngest one is also more than ten acres, and these people are still left after being dismissed." ”
How big is more than ten hectares?
Just look at the three of Han's father, father and son who were shocked and had a single face.
In their minds, their own land of more than 200 acres is already big enough, but it turns out that one Zhuangzi is still the smallest, which is more than ten times the amount of their land.
Erzhu finally smashed his mouth and let out a sigh, "Good girl, how much money has this county guarded." ”
"If it's really three years of Qing Governor's Mansion, 100,000 snowflakes of silver."
Han Chuxue shook his head and sighed, in the Dachang Dynasty, a thousand acres is an acre, with the information revealed by Yang Debiao, this Qiu Congfeng has forcibly occupied nearly 10,000 hectares of land, how expensive the land is, just look at the situation in Tang Village, no wonder it will destroy the family, otherwise the people are angry.
The second pillar sitting next to her was a little understanding and a little ununderstanding, "Little sister, what is the prefect?" ”
Han Chuxue blinked, yes, the Dachang Dynasty didn't have the official name of the prefect, she had deliberately changed it just now, but this time she forgot about it for a while.
Of course, on the surface, this baby will never show her stuffing, and she smiled very calmly, "Third brother, that's what the county guard means." ”
Oh, the second pillar nodded in understanding.
Other people who also understood it, thinking about what she said just now, had to sigh that this baby was really right.
Yang Debiao sighed and said, "What the sister said is very true, not to mention anything else, just these people on this stage, aren't they just because all the fields are gone, and in order to save a life, they have to sell their whole family into the Qiu family, and now they will be difficult to become official slaves from good farmers." ”
These farmers actually lost their own land and had to rely on Qiu Congfeng, and the tenant farmers who helped him take care of all kinds of farms, they were still free people, but because they had no land and no way to pay taxes, they finally had to abandon their household registration and become a black household according to Qiu Congfeng's wishes, so in this case, they were finally sentenced as official slaves as Qiu Congfeng's private domestic slave and sent to this auction house.
The auction method of these people is also strange, not one by one, but one by one, and the Han family, who participated in this kind of auction for the first time, said that they didn't understand.
So Yang Debiao, who went south and north, and saw well-informed, shined again, "Han Xianggong, sister, you look at these people, there are old and young are all a big family, not like the previous ones who are basically young and strong, even those who are a little older are also experienced stewards, these people will basically only serve crops, fruit trees, and agricultural products, and the old and the young will naturally be poor, and those who are too young will not be able to do anything, if it is an auction one by one, those old and young, who will be willing to ask for it." ”
I see!
Daddy Han and the others all understood, looking at the group of poor people on the stage with worried and dazed faces, Qi Qi was silent.
Han Chuxue was silent for a while, and then asked, "Brother Yang, what will happen if they lose the auction?" ”
This kind of thing is not impossible, the auction is a willingness to fight and a wish, if no one is willing to bid, it will naturally be lost, just now Qiu Congfu almost failed the auction, it can be seen that even the auction hosted by the government can not force the participants to buy all the goods.
Yang Debiao really knows this problem, "If you don't find a buyer this time, it will be assigned by the government to the people who are named in the government, but ......"
Yang Debiao paused, looked at the people on the stage, and his face was sympathetic, "But if this is the case, it will be impossible for their family to get together again, they will inevitably be torn apart, and they may not be able to see each other again until they die." ”
Can't see each other again until you die?
Daddy Han and the others' hearts couldn't help but tremble, and they all looked at Han Chuxue, didn't this little girl (little sister) think that they would never see each other until they died.
On the stage, the farmers were pulled out to shout the price, and the farmers whose whole families were young and strong were still very popular, and they were all bought after a while, but there were still three families standing alone on the stage, and the man who served as the host shouted again and again, but still no one was willing to raise his hand.
These three families, there is a family of six, but there is an old couple over fifty years old, this age is still middle-aged in modern times, but in ancient times when the age is basically fifty or sixty years old, seventy is considered a rare age, this age is already the end of the year, especially for people who need to sell their labor, they can't do any work at all, and the other family of five people has an old widowed mother, and there is a little grandson who is only a few years old, which is also equivalent to two waste laborers, no wonder no one wants it.
As for the remaining household, Daddy Han looked at Han Chuxue with some hesitation, "Erya, this household, do we really want it?" ”
That's right, the rest of the family is the one who takes care of the hemp garden, and they will all stay on the stage now, because their situation is worse than the first two families, a total of five people, an old and a young couple, and a two-year-old baby born to the young couple.
This old man, the little one, there are only two people who can work, and at that age, I am afraid that I don't have much experience, but I have to sell it at the price of five people, no wonder Daddy Han can't do it, it's too much of a loss.
Yang Debiao obviously didn't expect this to be such a situation, and after opening his mouth unexpectedly, he looked at Han Chuxue with some embarrassment, "Sister, I didn't expect it to be such a farmer." ”
At the beginning, he just listened to Lao Mo mention at random, and at that time he didn't remember Han Chuxue's commission at all, so naturally he didn't take this matter to heart, and then he remembered the news he heard by chance when he met Han Chuxue again, and he naturally didn't know what the specific situation was.
Han Chuxue was also a little surprised, but looking at this family carefully, although the old couple was older, but their waists were still straight, and they were obviously in good health, and the old man's eyes were not as cowering and frightened as ordinary farmers, but some indifference and calmness that did not match his current identity, this old man was afraid that he was also a person with a story.
The young couple, perhaps because they were still young, was inevitably a little nervous, but they were still much calmer than the previous farmers, and the young woman even comforted the child softly when she wanted to cry because she was afraid. (To be continued.) )
