Twenty-nine, the 12 shade households recruited by Chenjiawu were selected, including blacksmiths, weavers, potters, tea farmers, papermakers, medicine farmers, fishermen, fruit farmers, carpenters, and merchants, as well as eight shade households on the fourth floor of the southeast, northwest, and northwest, a total of 20 households were injected into the Qiantang Chen family, and these 20 shade households left their original land property to their sons and nephews who had become a family, and came to Chenjiawu with their wives and children and some simple living utensils, and took refuge under the Chen family, and made a stable life with their respective skills, and the Chen family will be based on the ability and performance of these shade householdsAt the end of the year, there will be a reward of different amounts of money, and the usual daily expenses are all borne by the Chen family, so as long as you become the shadow of the Chen family, it is equivalent to the future days are guaranteed, all you need is to show your skills and be conscientious.

The Qian Tang Chen clan is not wealthy, the clan land is only a few hectares, and the newly divided twelve hectares of clan land have not yet been harvested, and there are twelve more shade households at this time, and they need to build houses for them to live in, and they must be equipped with corresponding farm tools, all of which need to be borne by the Chen clan, and Chen Manton, who is responsible for managing the clan property, feels overstretched——

The old patriarch Chen Xian took the lead in donating twenty taels of gold for family use, and the heir of Chen Mo in the East Building, Zhou, also donated twenty taels of gold, and even Chen Man, who has always been stingy, was unprecedentedly generous, donated 100,000 yuan, equivalent to sixteen taels of gold, although Chen Man was calculating, but he was not completely eyeless, he knew that the prosperity of the family was just around the corner, this money should be out, and the fourth floor of the Chu family's gift was each three hectares, and the remaining eight hectares were used as clan fields, Chen's entry into the scholar was only one month, and the Chen Man family in the north building increased five hectares of fertile land, Five hectares is five hundred acres, before Chen Man's family had a total of only four hectares of land, now it is nearly ten hectares, and the family's land is shared on the fourth floor, Chen Man thought of this, and he was laughing in his sleep-

Chen Caozhi went to ask Xiaochan for money, Xiaochan calculated for a long time, and said: "Xiaolangjun, let's donate twenty taels of gold in the west building, right?" ”

Chen Caozhi said with a smile: "Sister Xiaochan, Lou Tian has produced the sum of the other three floors, and only donated twenty taels of gold, so she will be laughed at by the sixth uncle." ”

Ding Youwei on the side said: "Xiaochan is not stingy, she is helping Xiaolang to run the house, there is Xiao~ here, I am relaxed." ”

Xiao~ blushed and said, "That-donate two or five taels." ”

Chen Caozhi knew that his mother's funeral cost a lot of money, and his mother was just a widow burial, if the family was empty, his mother was thinking about her children and grandchildren, and asked: "Is our West Building so much money?" ”

Xiao~ said: "There is still money, but except for the money that can't be moved, the others are not much, and it is already a little difficult to donate twenty-five taels." ”

Chen Zhiqi said: "Why don't you know what money can't be moved?" ”

Xiao~ said: "There are five catties of gold." This is the old housewife's little more land, and the land she has saved is to be kept for Xiao Langjun to marry his wife. Other expenses can't be moved, only me and Aunt Ying know—I told my mother about it when she came back. ”

Ding Youwei's beautiful eyes were full of tears. Calling in a low voice: "Auntie-" I felt guilty that I couldn't serve my aunt for the rest of my life.

Although the mother is no longer there, the mother's love will always be in the heart. Just as the light of the sun, moon, and stars shines forever. Chen Caozhi was silent for a while. He said, "The clan needs to build houses for the shade households. The West Building should have a contribution. If the mother is alive. I will definitely do the same. Let's donate two catties of gold. Thirty-two taels. Now the Chen family in the west building has five more hectares of fertile land. It can increase a lot of income every year. Then I will make up the five pounds of gold. ”

Small~ Although reluctant. But Xiao Langjun said so. Naturally, she didn't dare to disobey.

Ding Youwei said: "I will also donate four taels of gold." This is my money. ”

Chen Caozhi said: "My sister-in-law is my person from the Chen family in the West Building, why donate otherwise!" ”

Ding Youwei said: "Then put it together, the Chen family in the West Building donated a total of thirty-six taels, anyway, the gold I keep will not be of other use." ”

Chen Caozhi said: "Sister-in-law is so good. ”

Ding You smiled slightly and said, "Isn't my sister-in-law from the Chen family in the West Building, what is it good to say!" ”

In this way, the fourth floor collects nearly 100 taels of gold, worth about 600,000 yuan, and more than 300,000 yuan accumulated by the clan property, totaling nearly one million yuan, Chen Caozhi and the elders of the clan agreed, and drew up a six-year long-term plan, to expand Chenjiawu into a first-class manor in Qiantang and even Wu County, the manor extends to the south bank of the Qiantang River in the north, northwest to the shore of Mingsheng Lake, and the southeast direction to include Jiuyao Mountain and Yuhuang Mountain. In addition to the cultivation of rice, hemp, wheat, and millet in the manor, the industries of forging and smelting, silkworm raising, weaving, pottery, winemaking, fish farming, tea making, paper making, medicine planting, and fruit cultivation should be carried out by the yin household of the manor, and the rest of the estates should be transported out of the manor for the trade of goods and cultivation by the shady households of the family name, so as to seek greater benefits.

Of course, these cannot be achieved overnight, and the current financial resources of the Qian Tang Chen family are not enough to fully roll it out, but as long as they follow the plan step by step

It is all achievable by sight, the Chen clan is full of confidence, the change after a scholar is huge, almost reborn, not to mention that there is a far-sighted person like Chen Caozhi to plan for it, in just a few months, the family has a new look, the emerging scholar clan is always vibrant, the young children of the Chen family are holding poems and books, reading hard, because next year is the triennial year of the county is visiting the talents, the children of the Chen family can participate in the Qiyun Mountain Yaji in September next year as the children of Quan, Zhu, Gu, Fan, Du, Ding, and Dai, but in addition to Chen Shangpo's Confucianism, the rest of Chen Mo and Chen Tan are only familiar with Mao's poems and Analects, which are worse than Zongzhi and Run'er.

As for Chen Man's two sons Chen Su and Chen in the North Building, they only barely read through the Analects, and Chen Su and Chen Xun are over twenty years old, and they have married and had children, so it would be too difficult for them to study again, Chen Man deeply regretted it, and he shouldn't have thought that there was no way out of studying before.

Chen Xian comforted: "Sixth brother, it is impossible for all the children of a family to enter the official career, take the Xie family of Chen County as an example, Xie Anshi is a talent, and he is not willing to live behind the scenes, and now he is forced to go out of the mountain in desperation, and the sixth brother and his nephew and nephew will take care of the family industry, which is very important, and it is the foundation of the Chen family." ”

Chen Man nodded yes, that's all, and his two sons don't like to read much, they prefer to run farms, and they think it's not bad to be a rich man and a farmer in the manor.

Since May, the area of Chenjiawu has been heavily constructed, everything has been carried out in an orderly manner, in addition to the necessary craftsmen, the rest of the handymen are Chen's tenants take the initiative to undertake, influenced by Chen Caozhi's mother, Chen's tenants have always been more generous, most people still know to be grateful, Chen's new forty hectares of land after the entry into the scholar's nationality, and need to recruit forty tenant farmers, after the defeat of Lu and Chu, many of the original dependence on Lu's, Chu's homeless people and tenants have gathered on Chen's side, and there are many yeoman farmers, some are on the verge of bankruptcy, He sold the land to Chan and became Chan's hired farmer himself—

What's funnier is that because the Chen family couldn't take out so much money to buy the fields of these yeoman farmers for a while, these yeoman farmers let the Chen family owe it first, and they only wanted Chen's protection to be able to cultivate and live steadily, which led to a strange phenomenon, Qian Tang Chen annexed more than ten hectares of land in a short period of time, but owed more than 1 million yuan to the hired farmers, which can be described as a lot of debt.

Chen Man wanted to follow the practice of other scholars, and allow the stateless homeless to not report to the government for the record, so that the Chen family could save a large amount of tax expenditure, but Chen Caozhi resolutely stopped it, and the homeless people could be accommodated, and they must go to the county to register, and the taxes that should be paid and the conscription that should be served should not be leaked or evaded, Chen Caozhi also suggested that the Ding family and Liu Jiabao gradually register the hidden households in the manor, because Chen Caozhi vaguely remembered that in the next two years, the Great Sima Huan Wen would preside over the implementation of a major land break, and all the states and counties controlled by the Eastern Jin Dynasty should read the household registration, strictly prohibit and exit the hidden households, Overseas Chinese and displaced people have returned to their hometowns, and many high-ranking families have been forced to hand over tens of thousands of hidden households, and there are not a few second-class scholars who have been raided.

What makes Chen Caozhi a little confused is that this year is the fourth year of Shengping, the age is in Gengshen, there are still fifty years before the next Geng year, Huan Wen is nearly fifty years old, how can he live another fifty years to preside over the Gengxu Grand Inspection, according to the historical process, fifty years later, Liu Yu monopolized the power, and was about to force the Jin Emperor to take the throne, so Chen Caozhi guessed that this Gengxu should refer to a certain day in a certain month, not a year.

June 18, Zongzhi's birthday, Chen Zhi also painted a portrait of Zongzhi, which is the appearance of Zongzhi's pen, both dignified and lovely, and Xie Dao from Cao E Temple to Wang Xizhi's Cao E tablet post to Zongzhi, Zongzhi loves Wang Xizhi's line.

Seventh, the Ministry of Officials, the Ancestral Department and the Spectrum Division of the Clerk arrived in Qiantang, the head of the family surnamed Chu, the six-pin Chenglang Chu Jian was demoted to a concubine, the Chu family was excluded from the scholar's register, the original 20 hectares of official land was recovered, the shade households were scattered, the original dependent on the Chu family was absorbed by other scholars in the Qian and Tang Dynasty, and the Chu family's field property went to more than half in a blink of an eye, although the Chu family was resentful, but now there is no official and no position, and it has become a Shu clan, where is the qualification to confront the Chen family, only to drink and swallow the voice.

Originally, at the beginning of this year, Chen Mo and Chen Tan wanted to go to Wu County to seek Xu Zaomen, but because Chen Caozhi's mother died of illness, so it was delayed.

According to the news from Wu County, 6 Na has been recruited by the imperial court to go to Jiankang to take up the prominent position of Zuo Min Shangshu, and the seventeenth birthday of Wei Rui on the eighth day of August is approaching.
