(The third chapter is sent, and it is updated!) ）

The osmanthus trees in the small courtyard are adorned with golden flowers, wafting out bursts of refreshing cinnamon fragrance.

Today's weather is good, and the Luo family has put down a few long tables under the osmanthus tree in the courtyard and put them together, and the Luo family has never been neat.

The four daughters who had been married returned with their husbands and children.

The old blacksmith Luo, who served and worked outside the county, came back, the eldest and the second came back, the third, the fourth, and the fifth also returned, plus the sixth at home, the Luo family was not absent today.

plus the eldest daughter-in-law and the second daughter-in-law who married into the Luo family, as well as the fifth mother who has not yet left the cabinet.

The long tables in the courtyard were already full.

Father Luo looked at a large table of people, very happy, he had always been unsmiling, and he made an exception to let Xiaoliu go to buy jar wine early.

"Family reunion, happy today, I have to drink two glasses!"

"Old man, I'm also glad to have two drinks with you." Luo Mu also said.

Luo Cheng was surprised, and he didn't expect Luo's mother to also drink.

The wine is water wine, brewed from millet grains, the degree is low, the purity is also low, the wine is muddy, yellowish, and there are even unfiltered lees in it, and there are some wine mosquitoes in the wine.

This kind of wine doesn't taste good, but the price is not cheap, the conditions of the Luo family in the past are not able to drink alcohol, even if the Luo family never buys wine to drink during the New Year's holidays, and the grain they harvest is even more reluctant to make wine.

"Drink them all!" The third heir Ye picked up the wine jar, poured a glass for Luo's father and mother, and then poured a glass for the eldest and second child, and finally poured it for himself.

The fourth child looked at the third child, "Brother, you should buy some good wine." ”

As a result, the third child glared at him, and he immediately stopped talking.

Everyone poured a bowl of wine, and even several sons-in-law poured it.

The eldest brother-in-law, Zhou Dewei, is twenty miles away from Nanshan Village, and his family has 40 acres of land.

The second brother-in-law and the second son Ming, who is the only one among the sons and sons-in-law of the Luo family who reads more, was once promoted by the county, went to Daxing City to participate in the imperial examination of the Ming Scripture, although he finally fell first, but after all, he is also a person who has read a lot of books, his grandfather even served as a state soldier, although he is a seven- or eight-grade petty official, but after all, he was also an official eunuch, but in the second brother-in-law's generation, the people are thin, the family is down, and he has no land at home, so he is to make Mr. Xixi to live.

The days are still stronger than those of the Luo family, although the people are a little sour, but they are actually okay with the Yue family, and they never miss the festival every year.

These two brothers-in-law are also in their early thirties, and they used to have a good life, and they actually have a sense of superiority when they come to the Yue family. But this time, they keenly felt the difference, and the spirit of the Luo family soared.

Originally, when the third child came to invite them home, they had something to ask for, but who knew that as soon as they entered the door, the old man first gave them ten yuan for one person, saying that it was to make up for the dowry when the eldest mother and the second mother got married.

Strings of copper coins, a full ten, really shocked them.

After listening to the braggadocio of the fourth child, they have a preliminary understanding of the changes in the Luo family now, and the Luo family is really developed.

Now the Luo family has 270 acres of land alone!

Not to mention, copper coins and silk are still worth hundreds of yuan, the old blacksmith is now the richest man in Nanshan Village, and even in Nanshan, he can be regarded as the richest man.

"Dad, I'm going to buy some more land!"

After Luo Cheng took a sip of water, he didn't plan to take a second sip, this thing can't be regarded as wine at all, sour, with a bit of bitter taste, and even mixed with a bit of unknown taste, he has never drunk such a bad wine, it is even more bitter and unpleasant than Huiyuan juice mixed with foreign wine.

Not even beer, it's too far behind.

"Buying land?" Daddy Luo asked after taking a sip of wine.

"Dad, I think so, although our family now has 270 acres of land, but we are such a big family, this little land is actually not much. Again, we received some rewards this time, adding up to one hundred and ninety dollars, one hundred and ninety horses of silk, and some captures on the battlefield, and a lot of cash in our hands. It is useless to keep the money in your hands, but it is better to buy some land. Didn't something happen to the Wang family, his family has a lot of land, so we can take the opportunity to buy some. ”

The Great Sui Dynasty had restrictions on the occupation of land by the people without officials and lords, and the people without lords, lords, officials, and positions could only own a maximum of 100 acres of land.

The 100-mu limit also has to include the fields granted by the imperial court.

However, Changbai Township has never had enough land, so the Lao Luo family is now five men and two middle men, and their family's land is 600 acres, 5 acres each, 5 acres each, and 2 men 50 acres each.

Now they have 270 acres, and they can buy up to 330 acres of land.

Under normal circumstances, it is not so easy to buy land, first of all, you have to have money, secondly, you have to have land to buy, and secondly, you have to be able to cultivate the land.

However, the Luo family has a large family, even if they have 600 acres of land, they can also plant the land here, after all, this year is a wide harvest of thin seeds, and even a poor mountain village like Nanshan Village has to engage in rotational farming, and even have to take out part of the field to plant mulberry and hemp.

"The land of the Wang family has always been good land, the land price is not cheap, and such good land, the government may not be willing to sell it if it is repossessed!"

Daddy thought for a moment.

For a farmer, buying land when he has money is the most natural idea, which is the same as when he has a little money in his hand, he always wants to pay a down payment mortgage to buy a suite.

In this era, land is the least risky, most principal-preserving and most stable investment.

Nothing is as cost-effective as buying land.

"Dad, I'll take care of this matter." Luo Cheng said with a smile.

The third child also said, "Xiao Wu will soon be the head catcher in the county, and it is not a matter of forcibly taking land for nothing." ”

"How much to buy?" Daddy asked again.

"You can buy as much as you want, and it would be best if you could buy a full amount of land."

"Even if you can buy so much, can you cultivate them? Next year, it is estimated that there will be another big battle! Daddy sighed.

"After buying the land, we can also buy some cattle, and we can also give some of the land to other families to plant. As long as you can buy land, you won't have to worry about not being able to plough it. As for next year's battle, you don't have to worry, I have a way to avoid military service and skip class. Luo Cheng is confident.

The harsh government is fiercer than the tiger, and the heavy labor is even more fatal.

Just like the Luo family this year, a family of five Ding and two middle schools, as a result, six people were taken out of labor, and Luo Wu, who came back the heaviest, did March labor. If this is the case next year, it will be difficult for the family to harvest even if they have land.

"What's the solution?"

The men at the table asked almost at the same time!
