In the east room, the big tiger lady lying on the kang saw Li Ziyu enter the house and struggled to get up.

Li Ziyu hurriedly stepped forward to hold her and said, "Uncle, you are not in good health, but don't get up." If you go out like this again, I won't dare to come to your house next time. ”

Seeing this, the big tiger father nodded at the big tiger mother and said, "Damn, Xiaoyu doesn't have anything to pick when she looks at it, so you just lie down." ”

The big tiger lady gasped weakly, with an embarrassed smile on her face, and said intermittently: "It's all my body, no, I don't fight, and I neglect the guests." ”

Li Ziyu hurriedly showed a sweet smile on her face: "Uncle, I hit it off with Brother Big Tiger at first sight, I'm not an outsider." Don't treat me as a guest, I won't be able to stand it. You just treat me as a junior, so I'm still at ease. ”

The big tiger father smiled and said honestly: "Then we will lick our faces and take advantage." What, eldest niece, what seeds are you trying to buy? ”

"Well, we don't have it here, so I want to plant it and try it, and if the yield is high, won't I catch it?"

"But if you don't play well, won't that kind of thing be in vain?"

"It's okay, someone has to be the first to try, right? It's okay if you don't play well, I don't have much land in the first place, so I should buy a lesson. ”

"Hehe, well, listening to you say that, it's such a reason."

Li Ziyu asked as if unintentionally: "Uncle, I have seen a lot of wasteland on the road, why don't you grow food?" Is that land from your village or somewhere else? ”

As soon as the big tiger father heard this, his face that had gone through all the vicissitudes of life wrinkled, sighed, and spoke in detail.

It turned out that the wasteland on both sides of the official road belonged to Yang Erli Village, but there were very few individuals who belonged to them. Those lands now belong to the village and are held by the village chief.

In recent years, the border has been fighting for years, and the population of families has decreased sharply. Yang Erli Village does not look at Zhuangzi, there are more than 400 households, only more than 1,000 people, most of them are old and weak children, and young and strong laborers only account for a small part.

Originally, every family had more than a dozen acres of land, and some families even had more, and the elderly and children could recover the grain in the field if they worked harder. It doesn't take much effort to hire short-term workers from afar for spring planting and autumn harvesting, and it only costs a few dollars, and life can be passable.

But two years ago, a new statement suddenly came, and the tax revenue was suddenly increased by 20%. In the past, paying taxes was 40% of the harvest, but now it has suddenly increased by 2 achievements to 60%, how can everyone live?

So, everyone sold the land, leaving only three or four acres of land as ration fields. The men went out to do their work, and the rest of the family were women and children.

The land reclaimed in the village was left uncultivated because it was uncultivated. The village chief is in a hurry, but the tax of the iron mouth and steel teeth above remains unchanged, and he can't do anything.

It's just that maybe the county parents didn't expect that not only the extra taxes were confiscated, but the original taxes were gone. The original magistrate didn't know what way to go, so he was transferred.

I heard that the new magistrate is a young man, who has just been here for more than two months, and I don't know what kind of charter it is. No, everyone is worried, I'm afraid that they are still unreliable, and their lives will be even more sad.

Li Ziyu was listening energetically, when he suddenly heard the four tigers shouting in the courtyard: "The eldest brother and the second brother are back!" ”

Li Ziyu hurriedly got up and followed the big tiger father out, and saw the courtyard gate wide open, and two ox carts drove in.

Yang Dahu drove the first ox cart in front, and the one behind was a young man of the same age as Dahu.

Both ox carts were full of grain bags, and the ox carts were followed by two young men who walked into the courtyard one after the other.

Behind the two of them, there was also a fourteen or fifteen-year-old man who looked like a young man.

Many villagers in the village also walked into the yard one after another, looking curiously at the things on the ox cart.

Li Ziyu didn't pay attention to it, her eyes were now on the two ox carts.

At this time, Yang Dahu found Li Ziyu and came over to greet him: "Sister Xiaoyu, are you here?" ”

Li Ziyu also greeted with a smile: "Brother Big Tiger, it's hard work." Wake up early, right? ”

"No, hehe, I only went after breakfast." Yang Dahu looked at Li Ziyu and looked at him incomprehensibly, so he explained, "Our village is two miles away from the county seat, why don't we call it Yang Erli Village, hehe."

Li Ziyu suddenly realized, it turned out that there was still such a thing.

At this time, one of the young men who was following the ox cart came over and said to Li Ziyu, "Is it you, this little girl, who wants to buy seeds?" ”

Li Ziyu looked at this person's face that was similar to that of the big tiger, but his eyes were shrewd. may have something to do with the fact that he has been running around in the past few years. Just said with certainty: "You are the second tiger brother, right?" Yes, I want to buy the seeds you bought, but I wonder what seeds you got this time? What I need is a seed that we don't have, I wonder if there is? ”

Yang Erhu laughed and said, "I just like to deal with people like you." I heard that you bought the seeds I got last time? Yes, I really got the seeds we don't have this time, what is it called maize, can you see if you need it? ”

So saying, he walked towards the first ox cart.

By this time, the two ox carts had already been unloaded, and the two oxen were already eating forage in a corner of the yard.

Li Ziyu followed Yang Erhu to the front of the car, and when Yang Erhu opened the grain pocket, she was overjoyed to see white corn kernels exposed inside.

Oh, my God! It's really corn seeds!

Li Ziyu held back her excitement and said to Yang Erhu: "I want this seed of yours, I don't know how many catties there are in total?" How much does it cost? ”

When Yang Erhu heard this, he said with a look of surprise: "I got a total of 500 catties of maize seeds this time, 50 wen a catty, what do you think?" ”

In fact, the conversion of corn seeds into the currency of the Daye Dynasty is only ten wen and one catty, but is it easy for him to cross the ocean? He didn't think he wanted much. If he is sure to ask for 100 wen a catty, it is the eldest brother who said that if he wants to let the person run away, he will ask for 50 wen.

Li Ziyu didn't think it was expensive, wasn't it just twenty-five taels of silver? So he nodded and said, "Deal!" ”

Lu Zhong walked out of the wing room as early as the two ox carts entered the hospital, and put his ox carts on hold at the door and waited.

At this time, the people in the courtyard all looked at Li Ziyu with abnormal eyes, could this kid be crazy? No one has ever seen this seed, let alone planted it, so she dares to buy it all, what if nothing can be planted?

Li Ziyu was happy in her heart, and she didn't pay much attention to the eyes of the people in the courtyard.

Yang Dahu found a pole from the house, and took his younger brothers to weigh the corn seeds on the car according to the bags, each bag was 100 catties, and the five bags were exactly 500 catties.

Li Ziyu watched Yang Dahu and Lu Zhong load their ox carts with corn seeds, and her heart was full of joy, as if she saw a bright future beckoning to her.

At this time, Yang Erhu approached Li Ziyu and whispered, "Sister Xiaoyu, I still have vegetable seeds here, do you want them?" ”

When Li Ziyu heard that of course she wanted it, she asked, "What kind of vegetable seeds?" Do we have one here? ”

"Of course not? If so, why should I bring it back? ”
