Chapter 201 Five hundred acres of land
After all the affairs were done, Gao Sheng returned to Xiahe Village, which was just after noon.
As soon as I entered the house, I felt a difference.
In the past, as long as he returned home, the housekeeper Sun Youfu hurriedly greeted him and served, but today Sun Youfu did not come out.
It was even more strange to enter the house, the old man and the slaves and maids in the house were not at home, and even Gao Yue was nowhere to be seen.
Only the old lady was at home, and when she saw him returning, she staggered up to him with a happy face.
"Baby, great joy!"
"Daiki?" Gao Sheng wondered, not knowing where the joy came from.
The old lady said happily: "There are officials in the house, saying that they are ordered to give our family a field, and you are not at home, you Aya led the maids of the family to help together, and even the maids went to see the excitement, if you were not afraid that there would be no one at home, you would not have answered the door when you came back, and A-Niang also went to see our family's big happy event." ”
The male of Xiahe County was enclosed, with 300 households and 500 acres of land, and the rewards of these lords have not moved.
In the Tang Dynasty, there were few people and more land, and this land was not necessarily a field, so the land given by the nobles was also land-based, and if you wanted to grow crops, you could only hire people to reclaim it.
500 acres of land, Gao Sheng felt dispensable.
However, the eighteenth generation of ancestors are all Tian Shehan's old men and old ladies are excited, what more satisfying Tian Shehan can be than the land in these years?
The land means that you can grow crops, and if you plant crops, you will have food, and food is the first place in the hearts of the old man and the old lady.
In addition, in the early days of the Tang Dynasty, various natural disasters emerged one after another, grain production was low, and the price of grain remained high.
If it were not for the establishment of a standing position in the thirteenth year of Zhenguan, when the grain supply was sufficient, the grain would be bought back at a price higher than the market price at that time, and then sold at a price lower than the market price when the grain was in short supply, so that the fluctuation of grain prices would be kept within a certain limit, so as to control grain prices.
Shangxiahe Village is close to the capital of Chang'an, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, the government does not dare to slack off, and vigorously grasps the price, the price of grain is still flat, if it is a remote area, the price of grain has to fluctuate.
Food, no matter which dynasty or generation, is fundamental.
500 acres of land, so many fields, the Gao family, including the maidservants, is naturally not a problem to eat a full belly, and there is even a lot of surplus grain every year.
The old man and the old lady are happy to be free of charge, and even the Kaiyuan Tongbao who earns a car by car, the old man and the old lady have never been so happy.
After setting up the carriage, Gao Sheng came to the outside of the village, and sure enough, he saw a group of people braving the cold wind and gathering together, and several people in official uniforms were surveying the land.
This is the most fertile land in Xiahe Village, and it is common for village farmers to want to play some autumn breeze and plant some crops on this land, but the village officials will not let them touch it, saying that this is the land of the government and has not been allocated to individuals, so they should not act rashly.
This land, even the old man has been thinking about it for more than ten years, but he didn't expect that today, it actually belongs to him.
Gao Sheng stepped forward, Gao Yue's sharp eyes were the first to spot him, calling "Aya, Aya", walking on his short legs, running all the way and throwing himself into his arms.
Gao Sheng picked up his daughter and walked over, several officials in charge of surveying the land hurriedly stepped forward to salute, and a county official who was still the county government hurriedly made a gesture when he saw Gao Sheng.
Gao Sheng hurriedly put his daughter down, and then returned the salute with both hands.
In fact, the people of the Tang Dynasty were very polite, whether they were superiors and subordinates, ordinary people, or nobles, they met and greeted each other, and they made a gesture first.
At that time, the Tang Dynasty was the upper kingdom of the Celestial Empire, and Li Shimin was regarded as the Khan of Heaven by the surrounding states.
The little devils of the Japanese Kingdom are unclothed, barbaric and rude, admire the culture of the Tang Dynasty, and learn everything in the Tang Dynasty as if they were in the Tang Dynasty.
What Japanese people are polite, what bird kimonos, it's all fake, everything is plagiarized from the Tang Dynasty, and then it's good to mutate yourself.
The county man looked embarrassed and said, "I won't wait for the county man to come back, so I will start to measure the field, and ask the county man to forgive me." ”
"It's okay, Emperor Wu County is in charge, and the land is given, but it is up to Wu County to make the decision."
Gao Shengguo has made a fortune by self-reliance, and he has never been hungry, so he is naturally very arrogant about the quality of the land, anyway, he has a lot of industry, even if he doesn't have these 500 acres of land, he can eat and drink without worry.
The old man didn't like to hear this, so he almost grabbed his ear directly, and snorted in his mouth: "Loser, you know a lot, 500 acres of land, divided into fertile land, bad land, more than one acre of fertile land to make dozens of catties of crops, can it be the same?" ”
If it weren't for the fact that this old man was his father, Gao Sheng really wanted to come forward and beat him, he was the emperor Lao'er's edict from the five products, the Xiahe County man who had 300 households and 500 acres of land, and the new owner of more than 100 households in Xiahe Village.
Sure enough, the surrounding Xiahe village households snickered, and it seemed that they were no longer surprised by the old man's ascension.
The old man said angrily to the county Cheng: "Wu County Cheng, don't listen to this ruined thing, the good land in Xiahe Village is here, you have to give the old man 500 acres out, my son is a noble, how can you be sloppy when you give land?" ”
Wu Xiancheng couldn't cry or laugh, and said in his heart, didn't you old man just take advantage of his own son's momentum, and actually scolded his son for being a "loser"?
Gao Sheng couldn't do it, and silently recited the Book of Filial Piety in his heart, lest he couldn't help it and beat this old man.
Although the old man is his cheap dad and comes for nothing, he is always a dad, he doesn't do the things that pit his father, and he can only endure the things that his father pits his son.
Seeing that Gao Sheng was silent, the old man was even more nervous, and with his big hands full of mud, he dragged the county man to a good field.
Yes, this old man who would rather die than suffer a loss, and see a good land is like seeing a **, toss 500 acres of land, and it will not be closed.
With this old man here, wherever the land in Xiahe Village is the most fertile, it will become a gift from the Gao family, without the slightest accident.
finally turned the 500 acres of the best fertile land in Xiahe Village into a man's land in Xiahe County, and then drew a sign on the title deed and pressed his fingerprint, Gao Sheng was able to talk to Wu County.
"Wu Xiancheng, after working hard for half a day, why don't you go to Gao's house to rest for a while?" Promote and take the initiative to invite.
In the rules he knows, an official like the county Cheng who sits in the hall and manages the court, can personally lead a team to Xiahe Village to measure and give him the field, that is, he, a man from Xiahe County, is a noble and has a great stake.
In addition, it is not measured in the spring, but in the winter, which shows that the high-level is under pressure, and Wu Xiancheng has to personally supervise it.
Think about it, tomorrow Gao Sheng is leaving, if his citian has not come down at this time, by the beginning of spring, he is already in Jiangnan Province, this citian may be delayed for a while.
This is to let him go with peace of mind, whose idea does not need to be guessed, except for Li Zhi, there is no one else......
