The New Year is getting closer and closer, and Jinshanwei rarely has the atmosphere of the New Year.

In the past, the military families had a hard time, and the New Year was also bleak and desolate, and wearing new clothes was a luxury, and it would be good to taste some meat. But this year is different, the new commander is a good official, not only hired a lot of labor, so that the military families have earned a lot of silver, the family has an unprecedented surplus of wealth, but also gave New Year's benefits, and finally can have a happy New Year.

Before the Chinese New Year, Li Chuan gave benefits to military households.

Ten catties of pork and ten catties of white flour per household.

There is no way, there are too many military households in Jinshanwei.

On the official list, all the military households here have fled, and the fields are barren, but in fact, the population of Jinshanwei is more than that of the big counties in the north now, more than 20,000 households, one household has ten catties of pork, and the hundreds of tons of pork that Li Chuan bought are barely enough.

Although it is not much, with such pork and flour, military households can also make dumplings for the New Year.

What made the military households even happier was that vegetables were actually grown in the plastic greenhouse.

Of course, the only ones who were happy were those military households who were forced to build greenhouses.

The other military households regretted that they did not take the initiative to respond to the policy of the commander, otherwise they should be happy now, a large greenhouse full of green vegetables, how much is this worth!

Although the common people are uneducated, they also know that these green vegetables in the winter are definitely very popular.

"Okay, it's all a greenhouse next year!"

Looking at the green cabbage in the shed, Li Chuan couldn't help but feel proud, and felt full of accomplishment for the first time, these greenhouse vegetables are different from the arms bought on Taobao, and in this era, it is a pioneering feat related to the livelihood of the society.

As long as the greenhouse vegetables are planted, Jinshanwei is the first Huaxi Village in the Ming Dynasty.

"Adult, can the small one build another greenhouse next year?"

The military household next to him was an old man, and when he heard this, he hurriedly smiled and said.

"Too much is not good!"

Li Chuan interrupted the old man's budding dream, and said: "Although fresh vegetables can be sold at a high price in winter, Jinshanwei does not have much land, on average, a military household is less than an acre of land, it is enough for a household to build a greenhouse, and it is difficult to sell vegetables if you build more, and it will affect the output of grain. ”

The old man was a little sneering, didn't dare to say any more, and hurriedly closed his mouth.

"Your Excellency!"

Lu Congliang continued: "Although the vegetables in this greenhouse are good, there are many people in Jinshanwei and few lands, if the food produced is not enough, I am afraid there will be trouble." Now that Daming is already short of food, it is still necessary to store more grain in case of emergency. ”

"That's right!"

Li Chuan nodded and said: "The sale of vegetables will be handed over to Wan Youqing and those merchants, and you will set a price when you go back, and the experience department will do a good job of accounting, so that the military households can also keep their own accounts, so that no one will do anything from it." ”

"The subordinate obeys!"

Lu Congliang hurriedly gave up, but smiled bitterly in his heart.

This is distrustful of officials, but the officials of the Ming Dynasty know best what kind of goods they are, and they have to create opportunities to make money if they have no chance, and it is no wonder that the commander makes the officials of the guard station everywhere.

After taking a turn in the greenhouse, Li Chuan went to the market again to observe the people's situation.

The end of the year has arrived, and the market is much more lively than ever.

Li Chuan gave out welfare, and the military households had a better life, so they prepared to have a good New Year, went to the market to buy some chickens and ducks, pulled a few feet of linen, made new clothes for the children, and happily celebrated the New Year.

The streets and alleys smell each other and are very lively.

Li Chuan led a group of well-dressed merchants and officials through the streets and alleys, completely like a group of unusual, everywhere he went, the crowd parted to both sides like waves, and the military households did not dare to approach this group of people as if they were hiding from the plague god.

What was slightly comforting was that the military households did not have the hatred in the past when they looked at Li Chuan.

"How do you sell this chicken?"

Li Chuan stopped at a stall and asked, pointing to a big rooster with five flowers in the cage.

The stall owner was a woman, who seemed to recognize Li Chuan, and when she heard this, she hurriedly smiled: "Don't want money, give it to adults." ”

Li Chuan said: "The official doesn't buy chickens, so he asks the price to see how much the chicken is worth." ”

The woman secretly screamed that it was a pity, and hurriedly replied: "Go back to my lord, this chicken sells for fifty yuan." ”

Li Chuan nodded, chatted with the women, and walked away with a large group of people.

The woman stood in front of the stall and watched them disappear into the crowd, and then muttered regretfully: "It's a pity that such a good opportunity was missed." I heard that the commander is the most kind to the military household, and never takes advantage of the military household, if he gives him a chicken for nothing, maybe the commander can give some benefits at hand, what a pity! ”

"Second sister-in-law, I want this chicken."

At this time, a young man came to the stall and reached out to catch the chicken with a smile.

"Fifty big bucks!"

The woman rolled her eyelids and ignored the authenticity.

"Didn't you say you didn't want money?"

The young man smiled and said, "I heard it all in the back just now. ”

"Don't want money?"

The woman immediately raised her eyebrows, crossed her hands and shouted: "It's so lazy to eat, and you still want to eat white food, why don't you go back to your mother's stomach and make it again." The old lady's chicken is also something you can eat? Get out of here! ”

The young man said angrily: "You said you don't want money, and I didn't say it." ”

When the nearby military households saw the quarrel, they immediately gathered around and pointed out with a smile.

The woman crossed her waist with one hand, pointed at the young man with the other, and scolded with self-confidence: "The old lady worked hard to raise the chicken, if you don't want money, it depends on the person, and you don't pee to take care of yourself, and you dare to compare with the commander and the adult, why don't you die of a rotten melon, hurry up and roll how far the old lady is, otherwise the old lady will kill you a rotten melon boy who is idle." ”

"You dominatrix, how can you talk!"

The young man was a little unbearable, being watched by so many people, and the clay figurines were also angry.

"Okay, you're really itchy with your skin."

The woman said she would do it, and after scooping up a fork, she rushed over with a fierce momentum.

The young man's face twitched, his legs and stomach were a little tendoned, and he didn't dare to talk nonsense anymore, so he hurriedly squeezed away from the crowd and ran away.

"Haha, the goods without eggs!"

The woman didn't chase after her, but stood in front of the stall with her hands crossed and laughed.

The crowd of onlookers also laughed, and the young man who had not yet run far stumbled under his feet and almost fell.

Li Chuan walked around the bazaar, and most of the military households he saw were swept away, although they were still dilapidated, but their spirit had changed, and he had expectations and rushes for life, and his mood couldn't help but improve.

In any case, it is a good start to keep these military households well fed and clothed.

If the military household under his rule does not even have enough to eat, his conscience will be tormented.

After walking for a while, a stall in front of him attracted Li Chuan's attention.
