236, Yunfan flies south (1)
Wang Baozong is quite at a loss for his future, he is only in his thirties, but he has long been a good hand in the crops, and he is diligent and willing to use his brains, so he earns a family business.
But it's useless to mention that now, he is now a sinner anyway, and fortunately, he fell into the hands of the Wuwei Cub, not only was he not discriminated against, but he was treated very badly.
This kind of not bad means that he not only does not have to be beaten and scolded every day, but also can eat to a full stomach. But the rest of the thieves who were guarded by them were not so lucky. His rations were borne by the Hosoyanagi Temple, and there was no deduction in them, and because they had made meritorious contributions in the time of guarding the none, they also received a reward from the Hosoyanagi Temple.
Compared with them, those who have simply turned from captives to criminals are treated much more miserable, and the food they eat is two bowls of gruel that can't stand up with chopsticks, and they live in a broken shack crowded together by dozens of people.
It stands to reason that there is more than enough than the top, which can already satisfy people like Wang Baozong. But since the beginning of February, rumors have worried Wang Baozong. They were originally sent to Yu Guo to revitalize the tenants, which he was not worried about, but now it is said that they will be resettled on the spot.
If he is placed in non-doing, where will he get his field, where will he get his inheritance? It's not that he sold himself to a big family as a slave, in that case, it would be better to become a tenant of the Yu family, at least the main family is generous, and there will be a head in the future.
Especially in these days, the people who were transferred for the state took over their work, and the five hundred of them were idle all of a sudden, and they didn't know what to do.
Fortunately, at this time, the tall butler they were familiar with came. Wang Baozong glanced at the tall pillar who walked in front of them, and admired it in his heart, this tall butler was only twenty years old, but he was more secure than him, a man in his thirties.
"Wang Baozong!" Just as he was thinking about it, Gao Dazhu suddenly shouted.
Wang Baozong was agitated, and instinctively stood up: "Here." ”
This was trained by Gao Dazhu, and in just over a month and a few days of hard work, Gao Dazhu could not train him to become a qualified fighter, but some rules and discipline were not a problem.
"Come with me, the petty officials want to see you." Tall pillar road.
When Wang Baozong heard that the "little official" wanted to see him, his heart was immediately full of ecstasy. These people all remember the image of Yu Guozhen at the beginning, especially Yu Guozhen's successive battles later, which made them realize what a heroic figure this young man who persuaded them to surrender to the truth!
When he saw Yu Guozhen, Yu Guozhen was sitting on a rock, looking no different from the boy next door, smiling and listening to the boy next to him.
"The villain has seen Childe." As soon as Wang Baozong saw Yu Guozhen, he bowed down and fell: "Thank you Gongzi for taking care of me these times." ”
"Sit down, don't be polite." Yu Guozhen smiled and pointed to the stone in front of him.
Wang Baozong didn't dare to sit, he couldn't help it, so he only sat on half of his buttocks. Seeing him like this, Yu Guozhen smiled: "You are still short with me, if it is a long time, you will know that I don't like this kind of courtesy." ”
"It's just that I don't know if the villain has that blessing, and he often serves the son." Hearing Yu Guozhen say this, Wang Baozong was overjoyed, he suppressed his expression and asked with his head down.
"As long as you want, what's wrong with following me?" Yu Guozhen said casually: "It's just that you are doing nothing, I'm afraid you won't be able to stay, the scourge is too heavy, and the local people are afraid that they will be dissatisfied with you." ”
Wang Baozong nodded sadly, this is a fact, everywhere the rogues went, they were burned, burned, and looted, so it was difficult for the people everywhere to forgive those who had been thieves. Even these prisoners who did a lot of things for nothing, and even sacrificed dozens of people, were also discriminated against.
This is one of the reasons why they are so confused about in-situ placement.
"I'd like to ask what you guys think." Yu Guozhen said with a smile: "Among the five hundred of you, I am the most impressed by you, so let Dazhu call you, if you have any ideas, just say it, don't worry." ”
Yu Guozhen's words were very simple, but with a strong persuasive power, Wang Baozong couldn't help but believe him. Thinking that this Wuwei tiger cub, who was famous in the eyes of the people of Anlu, who was really like a fairy, actually remembered his name, Wang Baozong was excited. He stood up again, and then bowed to the ground: "The villain said directly, we all hope to be a tenant for Yu Gongzi!" ”
"Ah......h
"Although the villains and others are in battle anyway, they have also made small contributions, but after all, they have been thieves, and they can't wash off the stigma in this life by themselves. Only by following Yu Gongzi can he not be bullied, make more contributions in the future, or have a future. Wang Baozong did not hide his thoughts.
"Follow me as a tenant, what can you say?" Yu Guozhen laughed and said: "In addition to my family business, I am also a white body!" ”
"Don't say anything else, the villain knows his own affairs, although the villain and his deceased wife have a deep friendship, but now there is only one villain left in the family, and he has to remarry, so that he can have a son and pass on the lineage. If you go elsewhere, don't count on the villain in this life, but if you follow Yu Gongzi, the son is the most generous and compassionate, and the villain's selfishness will be realized. When Wang Baozong said this, a somewhat shy smile appeared on his face: "Besides, the villain looked at such a figure as the executive, and he thought that if the villain had a son in the future, he could have one-tenth of the skills of the executive, and it would be enough to glorify the ancestors." If you are not in Yu Gongzi's house, where can you learn such skills? ”
Wang Baozong is honest and affectionate, but he does not lack typical peasant cunning, so his little abacus is quite clear. Yu Guozhen does not hate this kind of peasant cunning, in a sense, it is this kind of small cunning that allows this nation to open its own vegetable gardens and cultivated land to every corner of the world, and it is born of unparalleled brilliance and magnificence.
In Yu Guozhen's plan, it was originally to guide this kind of little cunning and use it where it should be used.
"I'm in Xiang'an, and I only have 200 acres of land, of which 100 acres are other courtyards, and I want people to live in." Yu Guozhen said: "If you don't have so many tenants, haha." ”
"Yu Gongzi always has a way!" Wang Baozong said without hesitation: "The villain is a good trick in the crop field, and he will never disappoint Yu Gongzi!" ”
"Hmm, I'm in Qin' Prefecture, do you know Qin Prefecture?" Yu Guozhen asked.
"The villain doesn't know."
"Qin's state is in Guangzhou's east, and you always know Huguang, Guangzhou's east is still south of Huguang, and there are five or six thousand miles away from here." Yu Guozhen said unhurriedly: "I have 10,000 acres of fertile land over there, and I need a lot of manpower, but it is too far away from your hometown." ”
"This ......" Wang Baozong heard it five or six thousand miles away, the joy on his face was slightly stagnant, and after thinking for a while, he said miserably: "What kind of hometown does the villain have now, the farther away from the ancestral tomb, the ancestral tablet villain can take ...... Five or six thousand miles, hehe, if it's not far away, where is there a way for villains to live? ”
"If you're not afraid of being far away from your hometown, Qin' Prefecture is a good place. It is close to the sea, so the salt fishing is abundant, and the price of salt is not high. Because of the south, the climate is much warmer than ours, and the rice can be harvested two to three times a year. The land is vast and sparsely populated, and there is a lot of wasteland, and if you do a good job, in three or five years, you will accumulate dozens of acres of land by yourself, and it may not be impossible. ”
Yu Guozhen said slowly, and when Wang Baozong heard that he could accumulate dozens of acres of land by himself in just three or five years, his eyes suddenly lit up: "Yu Gongzi...... Is there really so much land over there, is it dry land or paddy field? ”
"Naturally, it's a paddy field, but it's not cooked land, and you may have to open up the land yourself." Yu Guozhen said with a smile: "There is some animal power, there are medium-sized families in Qinzhou, and there are also twenty or thirty cows, and the buffalo on the river beach is hundreds or thousands of heads. ”
If you have a field and cattle, and then you have two thatched houses, then you can be regarded as having a family business. Wang Baozong's face was no longer gloomy at this time, on the contrary, it was shining: "Young Master Yu, this place ...... How is this local government taxed? ”
Yu Guozhen smiled faintly: "Where am I, where can the government's taxes be as high?" ”
Wang Baozong suddenly realized, stroked his palms and said: "Exactly, exactly, with Yu Gongzi here, where can the taxes in this place be high?" ”
After pondering for a while, he was still cautious after all, and asked again: "The rent of the petty official...... How to collect it? ”
Yu Guozhen did not rush to answer this question, he pondered for a while, if according to the climate of later generations, Qin'zhou and the new place he was about to open up, the paddy fields could be harvested three times a year. But now it is the Xiaoice period, the climate is colder, that is, last year and this year, the living water has not been frozen, but the ice in the pond in the morning is also a palm thick. Therefore, there are only two crops in a year, and some other crops may be planted in between.
Thinking of this, he said again: "The yield per mu of Qin's land is about three stones, and the two harvests a year are six stones. I only receive 30% of the rent a year, and the amount is not fixed, according to the actual income. ”
"According to the actual receipt?" This is again a very loose rule for tenants, because the yield per acre of the land is always more or less, and the harvest is abundant or poor, and the risk of abundance and arrears according to the actual harvest means that the risk of abundance and arrears is borne by the owner and the tenant, rather than by the tenant as in the case of the quota of harvest.
Wang Baozong's heart suddenly soared, his own strength, plus the cultivation of cattle, can cultivate about 20 acres, in this way, a year's income can have about 100 stone of grain, deducting all kinds of expenses, even if the price of two Guangxi rice is low, you can get dozens of taels of silver every year!
Have dozens of taels of silver, and still worry about not having a daughter-in-law?
As soon as he thought of this, Wang Baozong would hesitate, he nodded vigorously: "Young Master Yu, the villain is willing to go to Qin'zhou with you!" ”
"I have 10,000 acres of land in Qin' Prefecture, in addition to you, others may also be willing to go, you don't have to go back to ask for a good life, if you are willing to go with me, even if you are a tenant, I want to give you a place to settle in Qin' Prefecture." If you don't want to go, I won't force it, just transfer it to the government. ”
Hearing that it was handed over to the government, Wang Baozong suddenly thought of those sinners who were so hungry that they didn't want to move every time they were hungry for two bowls of porridge, and immediately smiled: "What did the son say...... The villain dared to pack a ticket, and when the gang heard that there was such a good place, none of them didn't want to go! ”
