Chapter 141 Want to Collect Tolls? Looking for scolding?
After the rain, the first sunny day, the breeze patrols, the temperature is suitable, and the weather is rare. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info Jin Yu dragged his own xiǎo daughter-in-law fu out for a walk, and it's not a thing to hold home all day, is it? The lion is now ashamed to see people, xiǎo four xiǎo five is not a estimate, following behind the two of them, jing is full of energy, and he is curious about everything, a cricket can play for a long time, poor cricket brother is not complete after being played, and the two big tui don't know where to throw it, so they can only stretch the four xiǎotui - a life woo, eternal.
Recently, it has rained continuously, and the water of the Chan River has risen rapidly, and the surface of the river is more than 30 meters wide on weekdays. I heard that in previous years, the surface of the Chanhe River was more than 20 zhang wide, but now it is only half of the amount. Because the river flows slowly, the imperial court has not built a bridge, and it is also to give food to the people who ferryed on the river. As soon as there was more rain, the plants by the river were full of life, especially the dog's tail grass, which swayed in the wind, and looked like millet from a distance. (One zhang in the Tang Dynasty was about a little more than three meters in today's society.) )
Yang Ying accompanied xiǎo four xiǎo five with great interest to tease Brother Cricket, showing her smile again, Jin Yu was also very happy to see it, she didn't know what was wrong with her xiǎo daughter-in-law, she was always sullen recently, it seems that it is still good to come out for a walk, and she will come out often in the future.
Jin Yu didn't go over to join in the fun, crickets are just things to feed Ji for him, he eats grasshoppers, especially at the end of summer, a bag of seeds, fried in oil, very delicious. Jin Yu was not idle, he dragged a lot of dog tail grass from the river and made a huā ring. Rural children don't have that many toys at their time, but they can always find some fun around them, such as this dog's tail grass. In addition to being able to weave huā rings, it can also be used to string grasshoppers, which is very tough, and after a while, Jin Yu caught a string.
Yang Ying played to death one after another, and she was very happy, and it seemed that she was going to award her a "pest guard" award. Jin Yu quietly walked over, swept the huā ring in front of Yang Ying's eyes, handed it to her and said, "Give it to you, put it on and take a look." ”
"How old is the husband, and he still plays this." Yang Ying said angrily, but she didn't object, stood up and looked at no one around, brought the huāring to the capital, and asked Jin Yu, "Is it good-looking?" ”
"Uh'''It's a little awkward, so don't wear it." The more Jin Yu looks at Yang Ying's appearance of wearing a huā ring, the more awkward it becomes, whether it is a fu person or a xiǎonv child these days, there is no hair hair or ponytail, it is all t~m hair bun and occasionally chā hairpin or something, it looks not awkward
"The husband will be funny" Yang Ying glanced at Jin Yu with a shy look, took off the huā ring, held it in her hand, but didn't throw it away, what she cared about was Jin Yu's friendship with her, and this friendship was just on top of this huā ring.
Jin Yu laughed, shook the string of grasshoppers in front of Yang Ying's eyes, and said, "See, I'll eat this tonight, it's delicious." ”
Yang Ying glanced at Jin Yu and didn't speak, she was now magically immune to her husband's great skill of omnipotence.
Jin Yu rubbed his hand on his clothes, took Xiǎo daughter-in-law's hand and said, "Let's go, take advantage of the hot weather, and then walk forward." ”
Yang Yingxiǎo's face flushed, and she quickly looked around, fortunately, there was no one, she was like a thief, and she looked cute.
xiǎo two mouths, one left and one right, xiǎo four xiǎo five sometimes before and sometimes after, lively and tight, adding a bit of vitality to this silent field.
"Xiǎo Lang Jun where is this going? Do you want to take a ferry? The two of them were walking forward gracefully, and a shout made Yang Ying quickly retract his hand, which was very hateful.
Jin Yu followed the prestige, a man stood on the boat, and the bamboo 槁chā was at the bottom of the river, stabilizing the xiǎo boat, which turned out to be a ferryman pulling business. Jin Yu shook his head and said, "It's just the river, come out for a walk." ”
The person who supported the penny originally saw Jin Yu wearing an extraordinary outfit, so he opened his mouth to inquire in detail, and when he heard Jin Yu's reply, he couldn't help but be disappointed, but he still persuaded with good words: "It's not too early to cross the river, since Xiǎo Langjun is not crossing the river, it is better to go back to the city to rest earlier, and then the city will be closed later." ”
Jin Yu looked at Yang Ying on the side, and began to chase butterflies with xiǎo four xiǎo five again, and it seemed that he was not in a hurry to go back, so he stepped forward to chat with the penny man: "Don't worry, since you are out, you will have more fun." ”
This penny man used to be the master of ferrying countless people every day, who hasn't seen it? When I heard Jin Yu say this, I thought that people could clear customs at night with a token, so his attitude was much more restrained, nodded, and echoed: "That's the same." ”
"Uncle's surname?" Jin Yu squatted on the shore and chatted with him very casually, and when he turned around, he could see Yang Ying, and he was in a good position, so he wouldn't go down. ,
"The old man's surname is Zhang, just call me Zhang Laohan." Zhang Laohan rubbed his hands embarrassedly.
"How long has Uncle Zhang been in this business?" It was the first time Jin Yu had seen a ferry on his own territory, and he was very curious, who made him always come out at night to catch the monkey? Or walk north during the day, and you will definitely see it.
"Alas, the boat that was bought on the chun this year, I heard that the ferry came quickly, and I was thinking about saving some money for my son to marry a daughter-in-law, which Cheng wanted to build a Zhuangzi in the south and built two bridges, and this merchant is getting less and less day by day." Zhang Laohan saw that Jin Yu had a close attitude, and said with a sad face.
"Uh'''" Jin Yu was stunned, he didn't expect to build a bridge by himself to block other people's financial roads.
"It's not to blame people, although this Chan River is on the surface, but a few people drown every year, and they are doing good deeds." Zhang Laohan saw that Jin Yu didn't speak, and thought that he had said the wrong thing, so he quickly remedied.
Jin Yu felt comfortable when Zhang Laohan said this, and immediately issued a good person card to Zhang Laohan, cutting off other people's financial routes, and it was not good to ignore them, so Jin Yu asked Zhang Laohan: "What did Uncle Zhang do before?" ”
"There is a paper-making workshop at home, and there have been more paper-making workshops in the past two years, and the method passed on by my father can't make good paper, so it's not as good as a day." Zhang Laohan still has a sad face, he just bought a boat, there are many merchants on Chun, he has made more money, and his life has just had a hope, but it is shattered again. The good sections of the other rivers have the master, and the rest are turbulent and difficult to pass, so it seems that I still have to go home to make paper
Before Jin Yu could say anything, he felt that someone was dragging him, it turned out that it was xiǎo four xiǎo five who was ordered to come to call Jin Yu, and Yang Ying stood on the side of the road in the distance and waited for him. Jin Yu had no choice but to say goodbye to Zhang Laohan.
Jin Yu told Yang Ying about Zhang Laohan on the road, and Yang Ying was also a little reluctant. Because now that the bridge in Zhuangzi has been built, the house has been built, and the labor is idle, there is really no post to vacate for Zhang Laohan.
When the two of them arrived at the mouth of the house, Jin Yu stopped, and the two bridges were not far apart, and sure enough, it was Xiao Xiao, a chariot and a horse, with a prosperous appearance. In a flash of inspiration, Jin Yu had an idea, and said to Yang Ying quite excitedly: "When there is no bridge, there is a charge for taking the ferry, let's build a bridge, won't it be enough to pull up the pole and charge?" Just let Uncle Zhang watch it, isn't this arranged?"
Yang Ying really admires her husband, can she come up with such a hun account idea? Yang Ying said with a smile: "This is a good method, and the money is fast, but if the husband does this, someone from the government will find Mén in less than three days." ”
"Why? Let's pay for it, but we can't collect the cost? "Jin Yu thinks that this fee is justified, who will not charge it in the future? High-speed, national highways, provincial highways, and some rural intersections are not given horizontal poles? Please take a detour
"The roads and bridges built by the imperial court do not charge tolls, and only the bandits of the Luàn world can do such a thing if they are hungry and anxious, so don't fight this idea." Yang Ying patiently explained to Jin Yu.
"That's the money from the imperial court, and it's the people's money, of course we can't collect it, but this bridge is our own money?" Jin Yu still can't twist this bend, no matter how he thinks about it, there is a reason to charge, and it is a matter of course.
"No one forced us to build a bridge, huh? Since it is built, it is for people to go, and there is no reason to charge. ”
Jin Yu was entangled in his heart, his own money was convenient for others, but there was nothing in return, he said in his Zhuangzi that they were all his own people, but it was a little awkward if he didn't know each other, because the bridge was too expensive, he was reluctant Jin Yu said angrily: "Don't give money, right?" The stone pillars on the Lao Tzu tree, no one ever thought about giving money, and they didn't let go."
"That husband's reputation is stinky, you can at least have a good reputation if you build a bridge, and if you build a bridge, people will say that you are rich and unkind." Yang Ying analyzed Jin Yu with modern thinking, and tried her best to persuade Jin Yu to give up the idea of charging.
Jin Yu was defeated, and persuaded Yang Ying to go home, walked to the bridge by himself, sat down and looked at the pedestrians, and thought: This is all money, why don't you let people charge? Is there any reason left? Is there any royal law left? No, you must deduct some money from these people, otherwise you will be in pain, and it will be very painful
Jin Yu was blindly thinking about the way to suck blood, Chen Rui came out of nowhere, looking jubilant, as if he hadn't eaten enough magpie, and said to Jin Yu: "Young master, the crops on the other side have been harvested, and the old slave just took over with the steward over there, and the land will be yours from today onwards."
"Well, that's good." Jin Yu finally heard the good news, nodded and ordered: "Then Uncle Chen looks at the arrangement, most of them are planted with winter wheat, and the rest are planted with vegetables, such as cabbage, radishes, etc." "There are few green vegetables in the winter this year, and you can't just rely on rou dishes to open a restaurant. Wen Tang Jian has out-of-season vegetables, but they are not for Jin Yu to eat, and occasionally some are sold in the market, and the price is also staggering.
Jin Yu took it for granted, the autumn planting he experienced was very natural, just like the bridge toll, how did he know the difficulty of promoting these things in the Tang Dynasty? But Chen Rui is very clear, turning over the soil, buying farm tools, even plowing cattle, and planting vegetables must be arranged in an unobtrusive place, so that the government can find out, and whether the tenants can punish the dead and whether the tenants will support it is two words, but Chen Rui is a good housekeeper, he didn't complain at all, but gritted his teeth and accepted the matter.
