Chapter 288: After the Harvest

After the garden party, no one would come to inquire about her details as Lin Zhu imagined, firstly, her status was too low, and secondly, Princess Changmin did not show any interest in her anymore.

So Lin Zhu's life is as quiet as ever.

Lin Zhu, who returned to his home, was not in a hurry to go to Mu Qiyue's Zhuangzi to see how the progress of the winery was.

Now her family is very busy, and the autumn harvest is being completed little by little, so she always has to care about something, after all, there are still some things that need to be decided by her.

The special rice and sorghum planted by Lin Zhu, except for the special rice, which has twenty or thirty acres of special rice at home, all the rest were sent to Mu Qiyue's Zhuangzi.

In addition, it will not be long before some grain will be delivered from the bamboo garden, so there is no need to leave too much of Lin Zhu here, and the amount of a year should still be abundant.

Lin Zhu's rice fields are connected to the fields of Wang Village. Therefore, the people of Wang Village also saw the bumper harvest of Lin Zhu's rice field, and it seemed that they would harvest more than two percent more than them.

So the villagers of Wang Village thought about whether they could touch the forest and bamboo. Lin Zhu's reputation in Wang Village is very good, because she has always kept a low profile, and her family never causes trouble outside, plus there are only places where outsiders are used, Feng Yuanbo always gives priority to people from Wang Village. More importantly, the people of Wang Village have tenanted more than 300 acres of land in Linzhu, and the land rent is even less than that in other places. This year's wind and rain are smooth, the harvest is very good, it can be said that it is a good year. Therefore, the people of Wang Village are very grateful to Lin Zhu.

No, it's just October. One after another, villagers sent rents to Lin Zhu's house.

Lin Zhu's family has a lot of land, and of course they have to pay a lot of taxes, and the field tax is of course from these ordinary rice. Otherwise, if we have special rice on more than 400 acres of land, the government will not accept cash and silver, but only rice and grain, and Lin Zhu will have no place to cry, and he will lose a lot.

Even so, the tax that Lin Sheng has to pay is not a small amount.

When Wang Dashan, the head of Wang Village, came to the door, Lin Zhu didn't know what he was coming for. However, Feng Yuanbo is very familiar with him. Because as long as Lin Zhu needs manpower. Feng Yuanbo would come to find the people in Wang Village through Wang Dashan. In addition, there is a red and white happy event in the village, and Feng Yuanbo came forward to join in.

So if Feng Yuanbo didn't say that he still had Lin Zhu on it, many villagers who didn't understand would still think that Feng Yuanbo was the owner.

"Why did Village Chief Wang come here this time?" Feng Yuanbo invited Wang Dashan to the reception place in the front hall.

"Steward Feng, isn't this autumn harvest. I'm just going to come and see. Is there anyone in the village who hasn't sent the rent? Wang Dashan looked honest and honest.

"I would like to thank Village Chief Wang for his help. Everybody brought their rents. Feng Yuanbo arched his hand to him, and asked someone to take out a purse and put it on the table. Pushed in the direction of Wang Dashan, "My girl said, thanks to Village Chief Wang, these small meanings are not respectful, and I hope to accept them." ”

"Hehe, that's so embarrassing." Wang Dashan looked at the purse in front of him, his eyes flashed, but he still had to shirk a few times in his mouth, after all, if he has money, who doesn't want to?

"Village Chief Wang doesn't need to be polite, I will ask you to take care of it in the future." Feng Yuanbo pushed the purse in the direction of Wang Dashan again.

"Thank you Miss Lin for your kindness, I will accept it unceremoniously." Wang Dashan also knew that people sincerely wanted to give it, and if he excused himself, it would be too bad to give face to the owner.

"Steward Feng, I came this time, in fact, I was entrusted by everyone." Wang Dashan directly accepted the purse, did not weigh the weight of it, and then stepped into the main topic of his visit.

"Village Chief Wang, please speak." Feng Yuanbo knew that he had nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace.

"To be honest, if it weren't for Miss Lin this year, there would be many families in our Wang Village who wouldn't be able to survive, and I don't know if Lu Dao would sell his sons and daughters to live." Wang Dashan said with emotion, "So I came to ask everyone if Miss Lin needs us, as long as we can do it, we will never refuse." ”

"Village Chief Wang is too polite," Feng Yuanbo smiled, "My girl has just arrived, and thanks to the help of the villagers, it can go so smoothly." Village Chief Wang can rest assured that if there is something, the girl will speak. Feeling Wang Dashan's sincerity, Feng Yuanbo didn't speak in a roundabout way. Village Chief Wang might as well say it directly. ”

"Hehe," Wang Dashan laughed embarrassedly, "Yes, although this year's harvest is better than before, everyone looks at Miss Billin's crops in the field are still a little worse." Wang Dashan actually wanted to say that it was much worse.

"So everyone asked me to be cheeky and ask Miss Lin if she could sell us some grain." Finally, Wang Dashan said what was in his heart. At this time, he lowered his head slightly, not daring to look at Feng Yuanbo's face.

Grain planting, especially excellent seeds, some people are reluctant to sell out, just like some unique skills, not passed on, self-cherishing is the consistent practice of this era.

Therefore, the better the grain, the more expensive the price, not to mention, it is rare. Even in places like Shiji, there are some special types of food that are not available.

Seeing that Feng Yuanbo had not spoken, Wang Dashan felt as if he was sweating on his forehead, if he was hated by the master's family because of this, and then took back those fields that had been rented out, it would be a loss to his wife and a soldier. At this time, Wang Dashan's heart was very worried.

"Actually, last year, the girl gave you very good food." Feng Yuanbo finally spoke. "If you compare it with the fields in other villages, you can tell that the yield should be higher."

"Yes, that's what Steward Feng said." Wang Dashan nodded hurriedly. In fact, he and the villagers had already seen the harvest in the fields of other villages. Especially in Xiaolinzhuang, under the same conditions, Wang Cun's harvest was much better than his. Many people in small villages regret not leaving Lin Zhu in their villages. Instead, let Wang Cun pick up the cheap.

When Wang Dashan heard this, he thought that the matter of grain seeds was no longer a play, and deeply felt that he still had to harvest it when he saw it, otherwise, not only would he not get the grain seeds, but if there was an accident, it would be a big blow to the village.

"However," Feng Yuanbo paused for a moment and said, "I can ask you about the new grain seeds, girl." ”

As soon as Feng Yuanbo's words fell, Wang Dashan raised his head in surprise.

"You should have seen that most of the grain in the field has been taken away, and if you prepare more rice seeds for the villagers, it will inevitably be more troublesome. Even if the girl is willing, it is not clear whether they are willing to send some back. So when you go back, talk to the people in the village first. ”

"Okay," Wang Dashan's eyes were full of surprise, "Miss Xie Lu, Miss Xie Lin, Butler Xie Lu, Xie Feng." He was so excited that he didn't know what to do, so he had to keep saying thank you.

"Village Chief Wang, don't be like this, wait until the matter is done, and then thank you before it's too late." Feng Yuanbo waved his hand again and again, "However, if you really want new grains, you have to know in your hearts, this kind of grains is not cheap." Feng Yuanbo gave them a preventive shot first.

"That's natural, this aspect won't make Steward Feng and Miss Lin embarrassed." Wang Dashan immediately said with a look in his eyes. Good things must be rare, and he also knows that the harvest on the bamboo field of the forest is pulled away before it can be put into storage. There must be a lot of people rushing to get it.

After finishing the business, Wang Dashan naturally retired.

And after Feng Yuanbo sent him away, he also went to Lin Zhu to report.

"That's what they think, girl." After Feng Yuanbo finished speaking, he looked at Lin Zhu.

"Hmm." Lin Zhu nodded, indicating that he had understood. However, she did not immediately say yes or no. Instead, he thought about it carefully, "Uncle Bo, it's not that this grain can't be sold to them." After a pause, Lin Zhu said again, "But how to sell it, we have to think about it clearly." ”

Feng Yuanbo listened, and nodded thoughtfully, the special rice seed is very important, if the news is revealed, it is said that it is from Lin Zhu, not only the Muyue Commercial Bank will not be able to explain it, but there may also be other people involved, if it is really the kind of person who is particularly powerful, Lin Zhu will be embarrassed here.

"What does the girl think? These grains need to be kept secret. Thinking of this, Feng Yuanbo reminded.

"It's not a matter of secrecy." Lin Zhu shook his head, after the test of the second generation of special watermelon, Lin Zhu knew that only seeds that have been moistened by space can be regarded as special seeds, and the second generation is not as magical as the first generation of seeds. So Lin Zhu didn't care much about the outflow of this seed.

"The grain grown from these seeds is about the same quality as the best watermelons." Lin Zhu's explanation made Feng Yuanbo feel at ease.

"Why is that girl so embarrassed?" Feng Yuanbo asked.

"Although the grain grown from this seed is not up to the grade of special products, it is much better than ordinary grain, and I don't want this public grain to flow out." Lin Zhu said.

Feng Yuanbo understood what Lin Zhu meant, the high-grade grain flowing out of the water would be more eye-catching than the high-grade watermelon, and it was easy to find out where the source was.

"It's better for us to agree with the people in the village that we will buy the grain." Feng Yuanbo said.

"Our efforts are still too small." Lin Zhu shook his head. If some people really spend a lot of money, maybe some villagers will be willing to risk offending Lin Zhu and sell it.

"And the goal of the Kizuki Trading House is too obvious." Lin Zhu once again denied the Muyue Trading Company, because the special white rice was sent to the palace, the Muyue Trading Company received the attention of many people. It's not a good place for them to show up here.

"It's better to let Young Master Chang come forward." Feng Yuanbo proposed that if General Chang's Mansion could come forward, it would not only be that the people of Wang Village would not dare to have other ideas, but even some people in the capital would be daunted.

Lin Zhu didn't agree immediately, she was still thinking about whether there was a more secure way, or a way not to borrow external forces. (To be continued......)
