Chapter Ninety-Nine: Great Happiness

Shortly after noon on the second day, the tooth boy came in a bullock cart.

The two fields together were sixty acres, and together with the sixty-eight acres of wasteland, the total amount of silver was four hundred and thirty-five taels of silver, which was wiped out as a fraction of nine denarii.

After signing the deed and giving the money, Lin Yu thought that although he had bought this field, he couldn't grow it himself, so he asked Yayu what to do?

"These fields are tenants, if the forest fish has a suitable candidate, you can also take back the field, tenants to their own familiar people, but this kind of grain has to be provided to them, generally speaking, the rent is according to three or seven points, the tenants keep three percent, the landlord collects seventy percent, the tax and grain are paid by the landlord, and some landlords are two or eight points, but this kind is still relatively few, only the high-grade fields are more, and the Qin Ju family in this Quhe village is like this nearby."

Yayu knew that the forest fish was young, and there should not be a lot of understanding in this field, so he patiently explained it to her.

Lin Yu secretly smacked his tongue in his heart, no wonder the peasants in this old society were poor, the income was not high, and they had to pay such a high rent for the landlord's family, and in the end, the peasants worked hard all year round and still couldn't fill their stomachs, but the landlord's family was so rich, especially that Qin Juren, his heart was too ruthless, and he was still a scholar in vain

Although he knew how to collect rent, the fish didn't know what to plant or where to buy food, so he asked the tooth again.

Yayu smiled and explained: "Nowadays, we mainly grow some sorghum, millet rice and wheat here, and there are also Champa rice, but they have not yet been popularized, and the price of Champa rice is still relatively high. It's not very easy to buy, so it's still relatively small."

When Lin Yu heard about Champa rice, he was immediately very interested. He hurriedly asked, "Is this Champa rice much longer than corn?" Planted in paddy fields? ”

"I have indeed seen this Champa rice a few times, and when it matures, it is as long as wheat, and it does not necessarily have to be planted in a paddy field, but if there is more water in the field, the yield will indeed be slightly higher" Yayu thought back to what kind of Champa rice he had seen, and explained while thinking about it, speaking of which this Champa rice had also been eaten. It is much more delicious to make dry rice, but it is a pity because there are few people who grow it at present. Now that he saw that Lin Yu was also full of interest, he couldn't help but ask a little excitedly: "Miss Mo Feilin is interested in this Zhancheng rice?" ”

"I'm not afraid of the big brother's jokes, I'm really interested in this Champa rice, just because my father was there before. I don't know where to get some Champa rice and come back. After cooking, it is indeed much better than sorghum and corn, but after eating, I went to the grain shop and found out that the price was too high, so I kept thinking that one day I could have a field, and I would plant all this Champa rice."

Most of this Champa rice is the predecessor of modern hybrid rice, and if you can grow all of this rice, you can eat white rice every day. I was even more overjoyed in my heart, and I made up a lie to Yayu again. I just want to know from his mouth where to get food.

"Brother Yaqi, do you know where to sell this rice seed? I want to plant the fields," she said, looking excitedly at Ya Yu.

"I know I know, but this Zhancheng rice has not been in our place for a long time, and the price is high, and many people are afraid that it will not be planted well, so they don't dare to start lightly, you have to think clearly, are you sure you want to plant?"

Seeing the appearance of the forest fish's eyes, Yayu couldn't help but ask suspiciously, not that he wanted to pour cold water on her, but that this place has been planted with some familiar species, although this Zhancheng rice is delicious, but they have not planted it yet, they are afraid of any mistakes, although he also hopes that the forest fish can really be planted successfully, but he is also afraid that she is young and does not know the severity, this food is a big deal, one is careless This whole year's income is gone, and even the tenants will be implicated in no food.

"Thank you Brother Yaqi for reminding me, I really want to plant, but don't worry, not now, at least I have to wait until I find out the temperament of this Champa rice, and I will take a small piece of land to try planting it first" Seeing that Yayu was worried about his own hot head, he was afraid that he would be hot-headed and fully planted Champa rice, Lin Yu explained to him with a smile.

Listening to Lin Yu's words, Yayu finally relieved his heart slightly, but still advised: "I heard the shopkeeper of the rice shop say that this Zhancheng rice is from the outside world, and people in other regions have said that it is very good to plant, but I am afraid that this climate and soil quality are different, and other people's good seeds may not be good to our area, you are young, or pay more attention, if you really want to plant, I will help you inquire again, this has just moved, now everyone has not eaten, you plant some wheat this year, and wait for rations, Next year, let's take a look at that small field and try to do it."

"Well, don't worry, Brother Yayu, I'll listen to you" Knowing that Yayu really cared for himself, Lin Yu was not a person who didn't know what to do, so he nodded gratefully to Yayu.

Before leaving, Yayu asked Lin Yu not to be busy buying grain seeds for the time being, now the grain in this Huaikou town is a lot higher, and the grain is also planted, and when the price of grain drops a little in a few days, or someone takes cheap grain from other places, he will inform her to buy grain seeds, and now the season is not too late, and the planting will not delay next year's harvest in a later day.

Lin Yu thanked him repeatedly, and then he drove back in the ox cart.

Although they still have some money in their hands, they can find someone to build a house not only to pay for it, but also to have two meals a day, although the wages are not much, but the price of grain is still high, and if you really want to build a house now, it is estimated that the money for buying grain is much more expensive than the house

Therefore, the matter of repairing the house was put on hold for the time being, and the matter of buying the field was not publicized, and Lin Yu and his family were still drinking wild vegetable porridge as before.

A few days later, Yayu drove in again and gave the white deed to Lin Yu.

At that time, Lin Yu's heart finally felt that those fields really belonged to him.

Half a month later, the imperial court issued a notice that no county or city should use the ground to raise prices without authorization, and the grain should be reduced to the original price within a certain day, and all the grain for those who refused to implement it would be confiscated!

This news suddenly spread like a flood, and everywhere it went, it was shouted in unison: "The emperor is merciful, long live the emperor, long live, long live."

Lin Yu also knew about this for the first time, and after the notice came, Yayu actually drove the car himself, told her the happy good news, and asked her to prepare the money to buy grain seeds. (To be continued......)
