Liu Mingzhi followed the five Shi elders of Dashi Village, and these villagers began to turn around on the ridge.

As for Wen Renzheng, he didn't know where to run with the wine jug for a long time, saying that he was helping Liu Dashao, and nine times out of ten he was distracted.

Liu Mingzhi didn't mind, and he didn't expect this old man to do anything.

"Sir, you see, this stone is the boundary between Dashi Village and Woniu Village, and after passing this boundary, it will belong to the land of Woniu Village."

"Old man, are all the fields planted with wheat?"

"The lord said with a smile, not all of them are wheat, rice, millet, and soybeans, among which there are soybeans, and there are more soybeans planted in Lotus Pass, and the terrain of Lotus Pass is not good, and it is not good to grow other grains to feed, but fortunately, soybeans can be in two seasons, although they are not as good as the main grain, but they can also be exchanged and eaten with each other."

Liu Mingzhi threw the soil in his hand on the ground and clapped his palms: "Why is there no one planting these fields?" I think the terrain is very good, and there is a small river next to it, and it is easy to irrigate, why is it abandoned? ”

Shi Lao Wu had a strange face, grabbed a handful of soil and put it in front of Liu Dashao and pulled it up: "Sir, please look, this land is sandy, there is no harvest, in the past, when the widow and man of Wei were at home, they transported some soil to improve the soil, but there was still some harvest, and now it is ......... Alas....... Don't mention it! ”

Liu Mingzhi rubbed the sand in his hand and nodded, as he guessed, it was indeed sandy, and it was not easy to improve the sand even in the era when the mechanical level was so high in later generations, let alone the era of low productivity in Dalong.

However, Shi Lao Wu's sandy loam land with their headache is indeed the most satisfying place for Liu Dashao.

This is also a bonus!

Wheat likes mud, rice likes depression, sweet potatoes like high sand, this sentence is not groundless.

If you want to grow sweet potatoes, the best land is sandy loam.

"Old man, where is Widow Wei? I want to buy these dozen acres of sandy loam land, I don't know if she agrees? ”

"Sir, you want to buy sandy land?"

Shi Lao Wu and the others looked at Liu Dashao in surprise, and couldn't guess what medicine was sold in this lord's gourd.

Rich people buy land to buy fertile land, and people who buy sandy loam land are unheard of, and Shi Lao Wu even suspects that this lord is joking with himself.

"What? This Wei widow is reluctant to sell? She can't grow anything if she keeps it, so it's better to buy two good pieces of land for some silver! ”

"Sell, sell, sell........ As long as the lord really wants to buy it, the little old man can help Widow Wei make the decision to sell these ten acres of land to the lord! ”

"You're in charge? Where is the widow of Wei? It's better to make it clear in person, and if you get into trouble when the time comes, I'll tell her directly. ”

Shi Lao Wu was a little embarrassed: "Sir, Widow Wei is not in the village now, and she may not be able to come back until evening, Sir, can you wait for that time?" ”

"It's the busy farming season right now, don't you take care of the fields in the village?"

"Alas... No, Widow Wei's family has more than a dozen acres of sandy loam land, she went to the county seat to help the rich family wash clothes and make ends meet, and she also had to feed two children, which is also a hard worker. ”

"Where's she? What happened to the widow? ”

"Three years ago, I went to the border of northern Xinjiang, and I died when I was fighting with the Turks, and the county sent someone to send ten taels of silver for a pension, but half of the eldest son ate Lao Tzu, how long is ten taels of silver enough for the mother to eat, this sandy loam can not recover the seeds after planting grain, so I can only make another way to make a living, the county has sent people to let her remarry many times, and she didn't listen, so she guarded the two children to live a miserable life!"

"She's a border soldier?"

"Yes, it's a pity that the second baby is so good, a child is not thirty, leaving the third mother to suffer hardships and suffering, fighting, that's it, nine out of ten don't pay it back, and if you see too much, you will look down on it!"

"But the pension for soldiers killed in war in Northern Xinjiang is one hundred taels, and it is also exempted from taxes for five years, so why won't it be like this in just three years!"

Seeing Shi Laowu's wilting expression, Liu Mingzhi still didn't understand what was going on.

His eyes were a little sour, and he looked at the deserted sandy loam in front of him with his fists clenched: "Raised by a son of a bitch, there are even people who drink the blood of soldiers, aren't you afraid of choking to death when you eat human blood steamed buns?" ”

"Sir, with such a fair word from you, the second baby is blind to death, but our cheap lives are worth a few dollars."

"Old man, don't say that, it's those corrupt officials who are sorry for you! Not to mention the looting of the people's fat and people's ointment, they even dared to swallow the pensions of the soldiers on the border, and it is not an exaggeration to divide the corpses of the five horses! ”

"Sir, don't mention it, don't mention it, it's been so long, don't mention the sad thing!"

"I'm sorry for the old man, I didn't mean to, Sister Wei is a good woman, and the second brother should be relieved to know underground, but I am now in a humble position, and I can't help you!"

"What a good woman, it's just a silly girl, how good it is to remarry after listening to the words of the government, what does it mean to keep an empty home, just don't listen to persuasion, no one can do anything, she is not willing to help her, she is not willing to work hard by herself, the lord really wants to buy land, the little old man is in charge, thirteen acres of land and thirty taels of silver!"

"More than ten acres of land are only thirty taels of silver, which is too little!"

"A lot, a lot, it's all land that can't grow food, and the little old man who wants so much silver is also ruthless, and the twenty-two little old man is going to sell it! This is the title deed, and if the lord sincerely wants the title deed, take it! ”

Liu Mingzhi looked at the title deed in front of him in surprise, the names of Shi Lao Wushi and Wei Xiaolian were tied on the title deed, and there were three bright red cinnabar handprints.

"Old man, this land belongs to your family? Brother Erwa? ”

"Little Lao'er's second son! The three brothers draw lots to win the list of the borders! ”

Shi Lao Wu seemed to be saying a trivial matter, and even his expression did not change much.

But Liu Mingzhi still saw a trace of grief from the white-haired man sending the black-haired man from his old eyes, but he just concealed it very deeply.

"Old man, I won't buy this land!"

Shi Lao Wu was stunned, the corners of his mouth trembled, and he gently put away the title deed, without saying anything to complain.

The old men on the side had nothing to say in their eyes.

"Old man, I don't mean anything else, this land belongs to Brother Erwa, I can't buy it but I can rent it, but there are a few conditions for renting it!"

"Sir, you say!"

Shi Lao Wu's expression was not salty or light, seeing that Liu Mingzhi no longer felt awe, but with a trace of rustiness, and his reply was also very bland.

"I'll plant something, you'..... Sister Wei has to find a few people and two children to help take care of, one person has three taels of silver a month, and the two children are too young to eat, what do you think? ”

Liu Mingzhi wanted to give more, but Shi Laowu's eyes made Liu Mingzhi hesitate, and if he gave more, he would think it was a charity.

This old man, the blood is still there!

Shi Lao Wu looked at Liu Dashao in surprise: "Sir, you can't joke with these old men!" ”

"Old man, although I am not as old as you, I also know the truth of a spitting and a nail, the rent of ten acres of land for a year is calculated at the normal price, five taels of silver per acre, and thirteen or thirteen acres of land boy take advantage of fifty taels of silver, okay?"

Shi Lao Wu trembled his hands and looked at Liu Mingzhi and knelt down.

"Sir, the little old man kowtowed to you for his son!"
