Those bookkeepers moved quickly, and soon it was Hu Quanyou's turn. After asking Hu Quanyou about the number, name, and situation of the whole family, he wrote a document in duplicate. One of them was handed over to Hu Quanyou, and one was placed in a small box next to it. Then the gentleman said to him, "Do you like to work as a tenant or do you like to work?" ”

Hu Quanyou rubbed his hands and said: "My ancestors are all good at farming!" Let's still be a tenant field! ”

After looking Hu Quan up and down for a while, the bookkeeper took two pieces of paper on the table and prepared to write, and said, "How many fields do you want to share?" ”

Hu Quanyou had already thought about it and said: "I want to share 30 acres of land!" ”

After hearing this, the bookkeeper thought for a while and said, "I can't give you so much!" I'll give you 20 acres. ”

He went back and pleaded, "Sir, help!" There are two young men in the family! 30 acres of land planted! ”

The bookkeeper frowned and said, "You planted it!" But there are still so many people who want to share the land, you have to be able to accommodate them! ”

After speaking, he was not verbose, and directly wrote two deeds and handed them to Hu Quanyou, and then said: "Are you literate?" ”

Hu Quanyou shook his head in embarrassment and said, "I can't write." ”

Mr. Bookkeeper didn't care, because it was too normal for people like Hu Quanyou to not be able to write. He pointed to the end of the deed and said, "Put a mudra here." ”

Hu Quanyou didn't dare to press this handprint easily. God knows what is written on this deed! He said, "Sir, but you haven't said how much this rent is?" ”

The bookkeeper pointed to the crowd behind him and said, "Go there and listen to the rules, and after listening to the rules, come back to me and press your mudra." ”

Go back and walk to those people with the deed. In the middle of the crowd, a few young men were explaining something to the crowd. Wherever Hu Quanyou went, one of them began to explain the deed of the tenant field. When Hu Quanyou finished listening to the rules, he felt that he must have been deceived!

So he walked to his team with the deed in his hand, looking for one of his teammates in the crowd. On the way there, he learned that the man was literate. It is said that he worked as a scholar for the young master of a large family, and then his eldest brother died of illness, so he went home to farm. So he was going to ask the man to show him if the deed in his hand was the same as what the blue-shirted boys had said.

In the end, he found him in the queue. And there are many people who have similar thoughts to Hu Quanyou. He took the deed of Hu Quan and several people, and after a few glances, his face changed! Hu Quanyou's heart locked his face and raised his face!

The man read the deeds of Hu Quan and several people and said quickly: "Go and sign the deed!" Hurry up! No rent is charged for the first year. Only one percent is harvested in the first year. In the third year, the full rent was collected, and only 30% and a half were collected! And these two years can be borrowed for grain, ploughing cattle and farm tools. The interest rate is very low, only 2 cents of interest, not a rolling interest! Just go! After this village, there will be no such shop! ”

Hearing this, Hu Quanyou, who had been stunned for a long time, ran back like crazy. It was a long time before he sleepwalked back to his family. Looking at the anxious faces of his family, Hu Quanyou couldn't help but say: "I can't understand one thing, why I always can't eat enough when I plant my own land." How can it be possible to eat enough to go to other people's land now? Why is this world so weird? ”

After saying this, Hu Quanyou saw the stunned looks of his family. So he took the deed and gave an explanation to his family. However, his family did not understand the reaction of the deed at all. In the end, their families came to a conclusion.

The first conclusion is that this landlord is rich!

The second conclusion is that this landlord is probably crazy!

Hu Quanyou carefully folded the deed, and then wrapped it in a piece of oilcloth and put it close to his body. said: "It doesn't matter if he's crazy or not, this deed is signed anyway." If he defaults on his debts in the future, we will win the lawsuit with him! ”

His eldest son said worriedly, "But Dad, you are illiterate, how do you know if what is written on this deed is the same as what you heard?" ”

Hu Quanyou smiled proudly: "You are stupid to be your father!" Your dad and I asked who is literate on the way! The descendants of the old Wang family worked as a scholar for a large family, and he was literate! He read it to me, and it was the same on both ends! ”

After hearing this, the family finally stopped worrying and became happy. Hu Quanyou commanded his two sons and said: "Hurry up, all go to the back of the shed to gather, I won't push the car, you two take turns to push!" ”

So Hu Quanyou and his family walked to the clearing. There are already quite a few people gathered there. Hu Quanyou's family waited for about an hour, and a few young men in blue shirts walked to the edge of the crowd and said, "I'll follow us after reading my name in a while." We will lead you to the zoning. ”

When everyone heard this, they were refreshed and concentrated on listening to the young man's name. The young man who spoke opened the paper in his hand and began to read the name, and after reading more than a dozen names, he pointed to Hu Quanyou's name. Hu Quanyou hurriedly beckoned his family to pack up his things and leaned behind the young man.

After the young man finished counting his name, Hu Quanyou took a general look, and there were about fifty or sixty families gathered around him. It seems that they will be their neighbors from now on. At this time, the young man put away the paper roll and said, "Okay, hurry up, we still have a few days to go." So a group of people set out with a few young men in a nervous mood.

On the way, Hu Quanyou kept getting close to the young men and asking him for all kinds of news. The lads saw it, too, but they didn't mind at all. So Hu Quanyou knew that his new master was called Liu Pei. He was a real rich young man. He didn't mean anything else by giving them the land at such a low price, just to see them pitiful. The young man also looked in reverence when he mentioned Liu Pei. So along the way, Hu Quanyou also had a general understanding of his new master's family.

When they returned, dozens of their families finally arrived at the ground with a delay. It was a preliminarily cleared piece of land. Large rocks have been cleared and excess trees have been cut down, leaving a large pit in the ground. The young man pointed to a wasteland in front of him and said, "From this day on, this is the land you will cultivate!" But before I get to scratch the ground, I'm going to teach you how to dig a shack. ”

After a few days of hot work, the ground was dug and the ground was divided. The lads were assigned farm tools and left.

Hu Quanyou stood on the land that his family's new tenants had come, supported the new plough he had borrowed money from, and said to his two sons with earthy faces: "Our family has no extra money to buy cattle. This year, you two will pull the plow! When we have money in the future, we will buy cattle again! ”
