It was nearly noon, the clouds had not dispersed, and the wind was still howling.

Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan finally slept enough, as soon as the sky was cloudy, they wanted to sleep, get up and eat something, and the two of them rode on the small car made by the carpenter, and went outside to see how the Zhuangzi was doing.

The person sitting in front is responsible for grasping the direction, and the person behind is tired, and needs to keep pace with the person in front of him, and there are two pieces of wood in the back of the car, and there are two small wheels on it to maintain balance.

"Xiaobao, see if it can rain heavily, if it does, it's time to release the water." This time, Wang Juan was in front, grasping the direction and asking.

"How do I know? Wait a minute, don't be in a hurry to put it down, in case you put it, if you don't put it, how can you stand it in the past few months? Millet, wheat, rice, and sorghum must all be used for water, and vegetable fields must not be missing, and trees must not be dried up, as well as domestic water. ”

Zhang Xiaobao looked at Wang Juan's two feet with his spare eyes, and moved with the synchronization, and the car walked forward slowly, not as fast as the two of him, mainly to prevent people from serving around him, and the two of them went out, and the family was afraid of falling, so they didn't worry about riding this car, and they couldn't fall if they wanted to.

Zhang Xiaobao replied to Wang Juan's words, but what he thought in his heart was whether to give more than 1,500 taels of silver to the county, he could take out this money, and there was still a lot of leftover, he earned those burned beans and sold them into soy sauce, and he could also get a lot of money, 55,000 stones, and he could earn two cents for every five catties.

At this price, one stone can earn nearly thirty-two yuan, these are sold, can earn 1,740 taels of silver, mainly soybeans do not cost money, as for whether they can be sold, where to sell, that is Zhou Xihu's business, he wants to make money, he has to sell.

It stands to reason that this money should be given, and I didn't lose money, but I really said that I lost it, and I also used fungus to exchange soybeans from other places, and I lost some money.

"What do you think? Didn't speak for a long time. Wang Juan stomped and found that Zhang Xiaobao was silent, turned his head to look, and asked.

"Didn't Cheng County Order say it, even if we ask for money, I'm thinking about whether to give it or not."

"If I were to say, then don't give it, why give him so much money? Our family's money is not blown by the wind, how much has it helped him? Do you have to inch in? Otherwise, it would not be easy for him to give him less, this can be regarded as an investment, don't those Western countries do it more. ”

Wang Juan must not be a child, some things are still understood, at first he said not to give, and later compromised.

"Well, then give it, but you must not give it to him directly, I want to change something, I heard Song Jinggong say, the soil on the south bank of Xiaoluo Shuihe is relatively good, and there are some stone mountains on the north bank, and the trees on the mountain are scarce, and they are not suitable for farming, so replace that place."

Fifteen hundred taels of silver, just buy such a mountain, no one will be unwilling, put it over there and put it away, waste, let's buy it, won't this money be used by Cheng County? ”

Zhang Xiaobao thought about it and gave such an answer.

Wang Juan stopped and looked back at Zhang Xiaobao, "Didn't that place say that there are more than 1,000 acres?" You want to buy it for 1,500 taels of silver? ”

"More than 1,800 acres, it's just one square kilometer, the broken place is a stone mountain, one or two more silver is a lot of an acre, and you can buy an acre of land if you add a little more, he will secretly have fun, this is still to see that there is no output in that place and there is no need to pay taxes, otherwise who will buy?"

Zhang Xiaobao is right, if it weren't for Wang Juan knowing who he was, he would definitely be moved by his righteousness, the reality is true, the more Wang Juan heard Zhang Xiaobao say this, the more he felt that there was a problem, and he didn't expose it directly.

"Oh, I see, it's a loss, right? You must not pay taxes, last year, there were five families in my village that did not produce silk, and they paid an extra 70 taels of silver, or my family put it on the pad, what is this called? This year I see them handing it over as well.

It's better to change it, what can be handed over from your family, change it to my house, your family has a hundred food towns, and it will be exempted directly, and the seven families are not having a good time, so you can help it. ”

"Will you settle accounts? If you change my family's people, won't my family's people have to pay it too? It's nothing more than the transfer of losses, you are hurting others and benefiting yourself, the fundamental problem has not been solved at all, come on, leave this matter to me, let them raise more chickens this year, and then use eggs and chickens to top, what are you doing with the land that you can't plant? ”

Zhang Xiaobao knew that the seven families, there were patients in the family, there were no benefits for them last year, and it cost a lot of money to take medicine, and when the rent was paid at the end of the year, there was no silk silk to hand over, and the extra 14 taels of silver were paid.

"Okay, so let's talk about it now, you really bought that place to lose money?"

Wang Juan let go of a thing, the seven families will be better in the future, otherwise fourteen taels of silver can drag them down, don't look at the cushion, that needs to be repaid, no matter how good the main family is, it is impossible to pay this money for the villagers, and whoever should pay the rent will be paid.

She and Zhang Xiaobao can find a way to make money, but they can't directly take the money, the extra is special, at the end of this year, all the people have to pay an extra part of the money, even if it is a variety of insurance and funds, this money or things will be collected and let Zhang Xiaobao operate.

At that time, she will earn more money, in addition to medical care and various housing and other funds, the extra will be given benefits, improve the road conditions of Zhuangzi, etc., which she does not have to worry about, so she turned to ask about the place where she bought.

"It's better than taking out the money for nothing, if you can change something, you can change something, and then Zhuangzi will build a house, there are stones over there, no matter how you say it, you have to stand up to Cheng County." Zhang Xiaobao looked helpless.

Wang Juan suddenly laughed: "Are you fooling a fool? Forget it, I won't ask you, I don't believe you buy it back and do nothing, just wait for the stone digging back to build a house, let's go, look at our little seedlings, I decided to set up a special team to protect all kinds of small seedlings in the future, I have thought of the name, called 'Grow Strong Seedling Team'. ”

The two of them were riding forward, and Steward Wang hurried over from there.

"Little lady, little boy, the Ge family Zhuangzi has really lost a lot, I told Ge Yingxi that I can help them make up some seedlings, and he wants to take out three times the seed of food, do you think it's okay?" If not, you can raise the price again. ”

Steward Wang asked Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan, this is what was said at the beginning, if the Ge family Zhuangzi is in trouble, he can help appropriately depending on the situation, otherwise he will not dare to make his own claims.

"Okay, why not, three times, and it doesn't take much effort to ask him how many seedlings he wants? Tell him that the grain must be able to be made into seeds, otherwise the price will be doubled, and if he takes three times the ordinary grain, we will lose it.

Xiaobao, I have decided, starting next year, we will sell rice seedlings, which can be used to promote this year's yield, and then find a few clever people and let them ponder hybrid rice, will you? ”

Wang Juan settled the matter.

"No, I don't study the kind of elementary school that can only feed hundreds of millions of more people." Zhang Xiaobao shook his head disdainfully.

"I finally found out, your skin is too thick, then let's study the university question, physics, now you pedal yourself, I'll give you the direction, see how much force you need to use to get us to the nearest paddy field within ten minutes."

******

In Sanshui County, Cheng County ordered all kinds of people to accompany them, first of all, they had to entertain their food and drink, a group of dozens of people, only a few of them really came to do things, and the rest were all following behind to take advantage.

It stands to reason that Cheng County's order not only wants to entertain these people well, but also sends some silver money in the end to make road expenses, but he is not greedy for much money, and he does not collect much, and it costs hundreds of taels to send to others, so many people, tens of thousands of taels of silver, let him go where to go, so the matter of sending the road fee is gone.

Those people wanted to have a fun and then get some benefits and benefits, but when they saw that the county order didn't know how to lift, they didn't give a good face, and from time to time there were people who found something wrong, such as the streets were too messy, of course, if they gave money, they would say that this was prosperous.

Cheng County Ling knew this, and did not make any excuses, let them say that this year was cloudy, Cheng County Ling was more happy, hoping that a rain would alleviate the disaster, but some people said that it was cold.

Cheng Xian Ling was angry, found the county Cheng, and after a few words, the county Cheng glanced at those people and turned to leave.

Waiting for people to leave, Cheng County Ling began to handle the case, in fact, there is no case, since Zhou Xihu did not make trouble, Cheng County Ling ruthlessly cleaned up those idle helpers, and the county was much more stable, it was nothing more than which laying hen suddenly disappeared, and the cow was sick and so on.

For the people above, this kind of small thing doesn't have to worry about it at all, but for those people, the loss is great, the chicken loses no eggs, and the family may count on the egg to live, even if the chicken is sold, it can be exchanged for some firewood, rice, oil and salt.

"Chen Dong, go to Li Liu's house to see, why don't his pigs eat?" Throwing a stick from the case, Cheng County ordered the official who often went to Zhangjia Zhuangzi to instruct.

"Yes, let's go see the little ones." Chen Dong had long been accustomed to this kind of messy thing, so he took the sign and hurried away, not daring to slack off, in case the pig starved to death, then the Li Liujia would have a few taels of silver.

"Song Yang, you go to Shahe Village to see why there is one less duck in the Wang Wu family, and find out whether it was dragged away by something in the river or stolen."

Cheng County Commander dealt with it one by one, and the people who came to find it were all waiting, hoping that the county magistrate could help them solve these important things.

The morning passed under such circumstances, and the county magistrate also rushed back and told Cheng County that everything was arranged, and Cheng County Ling left the lobby of the case and turned around to invite those people to dinner.
