Chapter 116: The Opposite

You feel that your father is starting to get confused again, wasn't he quite sober when Zhan Shixiu was there just now? I couldn't help reminding: "This year, everyone in the eight southern states farms and raises shrimp, and there will be shrimp everywhere in the future, is my father afraid that he won't be able to eat it?" ”

This woman! What words! Raising shrimp is not just for yourself......

Thinking of this, Blacksmith Qiu suddenly understood, it seemed that he was really confused.

However, there was one thing he didn't understand, so he asked his daughter: "But didn't the governor's agricultural decree say that there are no restrictions on shrimp farming in each state?" ”

"There are limits, all are minimums, so there is no cap, with the ambition of our Lord Zhan, of course, it is as big as we can do. Dad, I'm really worried. ”

In the end, a leisurely look of melancholy.

But that old antique, no matter how much he persuaded him, couldn't persuade him.

"Flowers, don't worry. Fortunately, Master Zhan has many practical experiences, and this time he did everything himself. Besides, in the eight states, other prefects are waiting in Nababa, and many prefectures and counties have already started, and it is useless to say anything now. ”

"Dad, that's what you said. This is indeed beyond our ability. After finishing speaking, he said secretly, it would be good if the Empress Dowager Dexin was still in Jiangzhou.

At the beginning, when Zhan Shixiu proposed this matter to the Empress Dowager Dexin, it was just a proposal, and at that time he was talking about gradual steps, he didn't expect that things would come so quickly, and there was no way to do it.

"Since it's not our ability to do it, Hua'er, don't worry. We are soft-spoken, just take care of ourselves. ”

Hearing Blacksmith Qiu say this, he nodded leisurely.

"This week, Zhang Li's three uncles left. I don't even have anyone around me who is easy to talk to. At this time, there are still many things to do, and you regret letting Uncle Zhou go.

Blacksmith Qiu said with a smile: "Hey, Uncle Zhou has prepared this matter for you, and before leaving, he left his most proud apprentice Xiao Anzi for you." Brother Zhou said that we can't waste our own because we help others farm. ”

Immediately ordered someone to pass on Xiao Anzi.

A stunned boy of seventeen or eighteen years old. Smiling face hanging.

"Xiao Anzi. Before sowing, hurry up and buy land, not much, 700 acres is enough. ”

Yes?

Xiao Anzi raised his head sharply. Even Blacksmith Qiu found it incredible. "Flowers. What do you buy so many fields for? ”

"Dad, my daughter will explain it to you later, don't worry. I have a plan in my mind. You don't care about saying so much, and she carefully explains many details of Xiao Anzi.

Although puzzled, Xiao Anzi still respectfully accepted the order, this is the first and most important rule learned from Grandpa Zhou, the owner's order, is a military order, in addition to execution, or execution!

After Xiao Anzi left, he said to Blacksmith Qiu leisurely: "Dad, I plan to rent the original 300 mu of land and the 700 mu I am about to buy to the peasant households, and I will not hire short-term or long-term workers. ”

"Of course! With so many fields, how many long and short jobs do you get? Blacksmith Qiu immediately answered.

Most of the previous 300 acres of land were leased out. In the other half, the daughter said that she wanted to improve the experimental field, so she did not rent it. As a result, there are dozens of long-term and short-term workers, and Uncle Zhou spends a lot of time just managing every day.

"But to rent my field, there is a condition, only rice is grown, and shrimp are not allowed." Said leisurely.

Blacksmith Qiu glared, would that person be willing? Now the concept of planting rice and shrimp has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people in Jiangzhou, one or two have tasted the sweetness, they are crazy, and they are not allowed to raise shrimp, who will be happy?

"If you don't raise shrimp, the rent will be paid at one-third of the original rent, and if you don't raise shrimp, it will be doubled."

As soon as he heard what his daughter said, Blacksmith Qiu got up and was thinking about the account, but nodded again and again. In this way, of course, the former one is more likely to save trouble, and the latter may lose money.

Don't look at raising shrimp to make money, not to mention the troublesome and manual manpower, the restrictions on harvesting rice are very large, in a word, the cost is high.

One lets two-thirds of the rental, and the other has to be doubled, and a fool will choose the latter.

Xiao Anzi handled the matter of buying the land properly, and soon, leisurely explained the matter.

At the beginning, it caused a lot of turmoil. In the countryside and among the tenant farmers, they solve each other's doubts and calculate. Many people are at a loss, and the most important of them is that those who rented Qiu's rice fields in the first place are entangled.

But there is no shortage of shrewd farmers among the peasants, and soon someone neatly pointed out that Qiu Niangzi is a god of agriculture, and she naturally has her reason for doing this, besides, this account, no matter how it is calculated, is a steady profit, why not go her way?

Oh, yes! One thought at first, and many people immediately followed suit.

In fact, this matter is very simple to say, just tempted by the fact that shrimp farming earns money. It's just confused.

As soon as a new round of farming began, the storm of "Qiu's rice fields do not raise shrimp" blew all over Jiangzhou, and the vast majority of people could not see what medicine was sold in Qiu's gourd.

As expected, the county lord of Fenghua and Mrs. Luo quickly came to the door in a hurry.

"I said you, what's the matter? The things you made up, everyone followed along, and now it has just been promoted, but you have retreated, hurry up and explain it to me! ”

The county lord of Fenghua is in a hurry, can he not be in a hurry! The 5,000 acres of land in her hands have not yet been grounded, and many of her tenant farmers were dumbfounded when they saw that the farmers who rented Qiu's rice fields did not raise shrimp, and hurriedly sent representatives to find the county lord, the purpose of which was to let the county lord take the idea.

People in private said that from beginning to end, the county lord of their family was walking with Qiu Niangzi, and this time he couldn't go wrong.

One has 5,000 acres in his hand and the other has 2,000 acres in his hand, and he looked at it leisurely and enthusiastically, so he seriously told Zhan Shixiu all the things he said to Zhan Shixiu that day, and even explained those principles in more detail.

After hearing this, the two were stunned.

To explain it, there are some understandings, and if you don't understand, you just don't understand.

There are so many people in the Great Shang Dynasty who can't consume these shrimps?

Seeing that the two were puzzled, he said leisurely: "Actually, if you don't raise shrimp for a quarter, there won't be much loss, at least, there will be rice." But if the situation like what I mentioned really happens, not only will there be no rice and shrimp, but I won't even be able to eat. Please ask the county lord and his wife to weigh it carefully. ”

The county lord of Fenghua paused and sighed, "As others said, I, the county lord, follow you, the god of agriculture, step by step, and this time, I will follow you." Besides, didn't we all grow rice all the time before you came? ”

Mrs. Luo nodded, that's the truth.

The two of them figured things out, and there was no anxiety on their faces, and they both laughed.

There are hurriedly ordered the people around them to go to various granges to pass orders, since they follow the leisurely learning, it is inevitable to give some rent, the two of them discussed, the rent per mu of land is reduced by a quarter of the original, which is not a small sweetness.

Of course, if anyone insists on raising shrimp, it will be tripled, which is much more ruthless than leisurely.

Laugh leisurely after listening. (To be continued......)
