The gray-clothed old farmer hurried back to the village with a happy face, and the steps were like flying, and with the promise of the new owner, the villagers finally did not have to leave their hometowns.

Zhao Quan looked a little speechless, just now, Qiu Hao not only promised to provide ploughing cattle and rice seeds every year, but even the rent was redivided.

Qiu Hao patted Zhao Quan on the shoulder and said, "Zhao Quan, if you have something to say, am I negligent about something?"

"Childe, don't you think it's too much for you to give fifty percent of the grain to the tenants every year?"

"Fifty-fifty is too much? How much should that give? ”

Qiu Hao was strange in his heart, and he really experienced what it meant to be a landlord mentality, and began to calculate how to squeeze tenants. To tell the truth, I traveled through time and space to Qiongzhou Mansion in order to plant spiritual rice to harvest spiritual energy, of which harvesting spiritual energy is the most important thing, harvesting rice is just incidental, after absorbing spiritual energy, those rice are useless to themselves, not to mention five or five points, even if it is all given to tenants!

The guards looked at it curiously, and Zhao Quan coughed and said: "Generally, landlords are so stipulated, a young man who works for a year will leave five stones, six buckets and seven liters of rice, and the old and weak will be reduced accordingly, and the rest will all go to the son!"

Qiu Hao's eyes widened when he heard this, he looked Zhao Quan up and down, and said curiously: "Zhao Quan, how did this five stones, six buckets, and seven liters be calculated, shouldn't it be divided?"

"The peaceful and prosperous era is naturally divided into rents, three or seven points or even two or eight points, the landlord mainly takes the lion's head, but it is good to have food to eat over the years, a young man has a day of food is one liter of five he, you can ensure that you do not starve to death, and it is five stones, six buckets and seven liters a year!"

"That's it!" Qiu Hao touched his chin, the wages of the tenants were actually "not starving to death", and the landlords who were "careful and calculating" were too picky.

Ancient stone, bucket, liter is not a unit of weight, but a decimal unit of volume, the weight of a stone of rice in the Ming Dynasty, in later generations weighed about 186 catties, then five stones, six buckets and seven liters, equivalent to one thousand and fifty-five catties in later generations.

"Hey, it seems that the rations are close to three catties a day, is this enough to ensure that it is enough to eat?" Qiu Hao was surprised and said, in the later generations, an adult man engaged in manual labor needs 2,200 calories of energy every day, which is equivalent to five taels of rice boiled into rice, but few can eat one pound of rice a day, as for three pounds of rice boiled rice, how big a pot it is, nine out of nine people can't eat it all!

Unexpectedly, Zhao Quan actually exclaimed: "Three catties? It's not that much, it's only about two catties and three taels! ”

Lu Chong is 1.9 meters tall and looks very strong, he covered his stomach and muttered: "Even if it's three catties, I can't eat enough, at least half a catty of meat and a pot of wine!"

Qiu Hao's eyebrows are dark, the ancient cattle people, it should be that the ancients ate a small amount of meat, so the amount of food is extremely large, as a landlord with a conscience, it is necessary to improve the diet of the people under his rule! Well, Dutou Village is close to the sea, so you can develop fishing, and get a few small fishing boats from later generations! You can also engage in some breeding industry, such as pig breeding.

At this time, Zhao Quan squeezed his eyebrows at Lu Chong and pointed at Qiu Hao, but Lu Chong shook his head, Qiu Hao saw it, and said in a deep voice: "What are you doing, you have something to say!"

Zhao Quan laughed dryly and hesitated: "Childe, you better raise the tenants' rent, because you yourself also have to pay tribute!"

"Tribute? To whom, Nan...... Da Ming? In addition to the southwest and southeast corners, the Manchu Qing Dynasty basically controlled the Central Plains, and even the Lingao Yamen on the island has been destroyed, and it seems that there are still green battalions stationed there, so do you still need to pay taxes to the Ming Dynasty?

Zhao Quan nodded, and said with a solemn expression: "Exactly, at this time, it is the time of the Ming Dynasty to be in danger, the son has a strong net worth, and he should dedicate his own strength, after all, if the Tartar wins the world, it must be dark, has the son ever heard of Yangzhou for ten days?"

Lu Chong sighed: "I heard that not long ago, Li Chengdong, a rebel general attached to the Qing Dynasty, led 5,000 Qing soldiers to massacre the people of Jiading, and the tragic situation was inexplicable!"

A black-faced guard added, "Childe! Although you were born overseas, but those Tartars don't care about these, as long as they win the world, but they are good, they must be killed, burned, and robbed, at this time to help the Ming Dynasty, is to help yourself, do not stand idly by! ”

"Exactly ......"

Looking over with a pair of eyes, Qiu Hao was quite speechless, is this the rhythm of donating money and materials to resist the Qing Dynasty? It's just a pity, this is not a parallel space that can go against the sky, and I can only be an honest historical passerby, and I feel powerless!

According to the historical records of later generations, the current Emperor of Nanming should be Zhu Yujian, the title is Longwu, just ascended the throne for a month, but unfortunately Zhu Yujian's ambition is difficult to pay, the emperor's throne is not stable, and it will be hung in September next year.

Qiu Hao pondered silently, Zhao Quan thought he was unwilling, and continued: "Childe, Qiongzhou Mansion has a Heaven and Earth Society, I am afraid that it will not be good for the rich, just some money and food, we can help you transport it!"

"Huh? Heaven and earth will divide the rudder! ”

Qiu Hao suddenly raised his head and stared at Zhao Quan, his expression was faintly wary, he didn't expect that Qionghai Dart Line would be related to Heaven and Earth, remember that Monk Duzhen said that Heaven and Earth would be established by Emperor Nanming in a hurry, and Tang Hua also said that Qionghai Dart Line went to Fujian from time to time, Zhu Yujian was not in Fujian, frowned and said: "Zhao Quan, you are honest, what is the relationship between Qionghai Dart Line and Heaven and Earth, and whose order is it to listen to, is it Longwu?"

Zhao Quan took a deep breath and said: "Childe, Qionghai Dart Line is actually a peripheral organization of the Heaven and Earth Society, this is not a secret in Qiongzhou Mansion, in terms of acting, we directly obey the orders of the chief dart head, and are specifically responsible for escorting grain and grass materials!"

"Then why do you bother to be guards, can't you just be a special dart?"

Lu Chonghan said with a smile: "A few days ago, the autumn harvest was already in place, and the chief dart head transported the grain and grass to Fujian, and it happened that there was Zheng Jiahaishi to escort us, so we don't need to go north, just stay on standby, cough, you can also work part-time as a guard to earn extra money, specifically to protect landlords like you who support the Ming Dynasty!"

Qiu Hao choked, the high price of one or two a day, the guards invited were actually only cameos, and the background was not simple, so loyalty became a big problem, and he began to think about how to dismiss the twenty guards.

Zhao Quan seemed to know what Qiu Hao was thinking, and said in a deep voice: "Childe, there is no need to worry too much, our Qionghai Dart Club is just a peripheral organization of the Heaven and Earth Society, and it is mostly a cooperative relationship with the imperial court, and none of us are born in the imperial court, and we must keep our promises and keep our promises to our employers, and we will never do those things that are intended for money!"

Qiu Hao's face was a little slow, but his heart was not half a minute, no matter what the other party said, he always had the feeling of luring the wolf into the room, he just hoped that the time would pass quickly, so as to establish a team practice that completely belonged to him, and then he quit the person, but now he was already straight to the point, and asked curiously: "What is the rent of Da Ming?"

Zhao Quan blushed a little and said, "One and a half acres of stone grain!"

Just when all the guards thought that Qiu Hao was definitely going to jump to his feet, Qiu Hao only muttered a few words, then changed the topic and asked: "Zhao Quan, you have been traveling south and north for many years, what are the rivers and lakes like now?"

Zhao Quan looked at the long sword in his hand in a daze, and said with emotion: "Today's rivers and lakes have long been chaotic!"

"I actually want to ask, aren't the warriors very powerful, just kill Dolgon, Wu Sangui, Kong Youde and the like, won't the Tartars be self-defeating?"

Qiu Hao himself is a martial artist, he knows very well the ability of a martial artist, his running speed is twice as fast as that of ordinary people, he can easily cross the four-meter-high wall without climbing, and his shot is even better, his hand speed and strength are three or four times better than ordinary people, if he practices cold weapons hard, ten enemies are sparse and ordinary, and a hundred enemies are a generation of masters, and a thousand enemies are not nothing, I wonder how Dolgon and others can live well?

Zhao Quan held the hilt of the sword tightly and said bitterly: "Childe, since ancient times, warriors can't interfere too much in the affairs of the imperial court, and there are masters on the Tartar side!"

Qiu Hao was furious when he heard this, and scolded loudly, "Fart, the country is ruined and the family is dead, and they still make excuses, even if they have masters, there are definitely not many of them, where can they beat the entire Daming Jianghu?" ”

“…… It's really an enemy, because after Sanfeng Zhenren, another Jindan Zhenren is an old shaman! ”
