Chapter 216: Celebration Dinner
Everyone laughed, Han Wang looked at the honest tenants, he was in a very comfortable mood, asking questions from east to west, and he was more familiar than Yang Zaixing. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info everyone's mood became more and more relaxed. Seeing that the sun was setting in the west, the tenants were going to leave and go home.
Xiaohong quietly came over and asked, "Master, Mrs. asked if you want to take advantage of the crowd to open a few tables of celebration banquets to increase the joy!" ”
Han Wangxin said that it is true, this meal of wine can bring the relationship between each other closer, and it is more humane, "Everyone, it just so happens that the chef has made a few dishes, and everyone will leave after eating together,"
Liu Laohan also counted a few far aways, and patted his head, "Master, you are a celebration wine!" I'll go back and grab a chicken for you and add a dish."
Han Wang was embarrassed, but Liu Laohan said that if the lord didn't accept gifts, he looked down on people, and finally Lao Xia persuaded Han Wang, "Master, I think Lao Liu is a heart, it's not good to reject it, it's better to be generous and accept it, and when you go back, you can bring one or two gifts in return."
This is also reasonable, and the peasants also want to save face, so they nodded and said, "That's it!" Tell the cook to cook a few more dishes."
As soon as the tenants saw that Han Wang no longer shirked, they were immediately full of energy and went home to prepare gifts.
Lao Xia also said that the lord and the lady both like children, and bring all the children and daughters in the family, and do not bring gifts or accept them.
Since Han Wang's expedition during the newlywed honeymoon period, Jin Niang's heart has been empty, and she can't help but want to inherit the Han family. Otherwise, if Han Wang has a mistake on the battlefield, it will be too late to cry, so he especially likes children.
When Han Wang came back this time, he just took advantage of the dinner party to invite some little dolls to make a fuss at home, maybe he could attract the favor of Guanyin.
Xia Yun is a person who has come over, and the lady's mind is clear at all, and she tells the tenant what the lady means in her heart to avoid the embarrassment of the main family.
Wu Yu, his mother-in-law, because Lao Xia has no heirs, can't hold her head up in front of relatives and friends, and has always been angry. Before, the family was embarrassed and couldn't take a concubine, so there was nothing to do.
But now, the Han Mansion is getting better and better day by day, and the rewards for Lao Xia are rich. It is estimated that there will be 100 yuan saved at the end of the year, and he began to think about giving Lao Xiana a concubine.
Wu Yu Tuoxia's father has inquired, and he went to the tooth store to buy a maid with an innocent net worth and a good appearance, and it was only ten times, and it was twenty times to the sky. If you can afford this money now, the key is to choose a good one.
Hearing about his daughter-in-law's idea, Daddy Xia was happier than drinking honey, if it weren't for Lao Xia's inventory all day long, Daddy Xia would have dragged him to the tooth shop and picked a maid to come back.
Lao Xia doesn't want to marry a concubine, but the main family is newly married, and there is no movement yet, so he will make a concubine and say goodbye to the main family? Besides, he is a subordinate bought by the master, and then he goes to buy a subordinate to serve himself? Does that sound like words? Lao Xia made up his mind, this is not in a hurry for the time being.
After a while, the tenants did come over with gifts and dolls, and each family had at least one or two children in their threes, fives, sevens, and eights.
Jin Niang was very happy, and took the children to the wing, not only exquisite meals, but also a lot of pastries and fruits. Where have the children eaten such a sumptuous meal, and with the encouragement of Jin Niang, they have eaten a lot. I also asked the kitchen to send some sherbet and water to prevent food accumulation.
As for the head of each family in the lobby, they naturally eat meat and drink wine in a big bowl, and the liquor in the key Han Mansion is really powerful, and four or five have fallen down halfway through the banquet.
Liu Laohan drank well, but his speech was reversed, and two tenants who went to the city to sell vegetables also came, after all, they were in business, and they were even more eloquent than Lao Liu. Han Wang wondered why these two families didn't grow crops and preferred to grow vegetables? casually asked.
The two vegetable farmers, Zhang Miao and Zhang Yao, dressed more thoughtfully, saying that the ancestors of the old Zhang family have made a living by growing vegetables for three generations, and they have worked in the vegetable fields since they were young. The two brothers are side branches, so they have no share of their own property, so they can only rent land to grow vegetables and make money to support their families.
I heard that Hanfu's rent was only 30%, so I rushed over and rented 20 acres of land to grow vegetables. With the strength of the wine, as long as the land is handed over to them, it is guaranteed to be the same every year, and it will change greatly in three years.
I'm a little embarrassed to talk about income, although the income from growing vegetables is higher than that of crops, and it is more difficult to carry water and serve vegetables. I have to send it to the city as soon as possible, and I earn all the hard-earned money. This first year does not refer to earning money, but must use the winter to nourish the land, and the next year can grow a good field.
Han Wang's heart moved, and he asked, "This winter, you can't grow vegetables in the field?" ”
The eldest brother Zhang Miao nodded and said, "The master doesn't know anything." In the cold winter wax moon, rest and recuperation is serious"
Han Wang deliberately asked, "If you can grow summer vegetables in winter, will it triple the income?" ”
Zhang Miao shook her head to express disbelief, but Zhang Yao kept an eye, "Master, it's not that there are no vegetables in winter, such as oranges, grapes, cucumbers, cabbage, and radishes can be secretly cellared, and when they are taken out in winter, the appearance is no different from fresh, and the price is ten or twenty times more expensive than in summer."
Han Wang shook his head, "The taste of the vegetables in the cellar is very different, I have heard of a way to plant out-of-season vegetables in winter, such as cucumbers, leeks, garlic, purple melons, spinach, rape, and green onions can be planted and harvested."
Zhang Yao knelt down for Han Wang, but Han Wang was startled, and hurriedly asked what was going on?
Zhang Yao has been taking care of the vegetable field since he was a child, and he doesn't know the value of out-of-season vegetables. If Master Han really has such a great supernatural power, if he learns a little bit, he will be able to revitalize the family, and the province will be angry with the big house when he worships his ancestors every year.
Therefore, Zhang Yao said that he took Han Wang as his food and clothing parents, and knelt down to learn art.
Han Wang saw that Zhang Yao was much more flexible than Zhang Miao, and he also intended to teach him the greenhouse planting technique, so he said, "Apprenticeship is avoided, it's better to try this anti-seasonal method together, I dare not say whether it will succeed or not." Another 20 acres of land will be handed over to you to take care of together, and the income will be divided in half."
Zhang Yao nodded again and again and said, "Four months in winter, it's also very boring, just follow the master to learn some skills, and my family will treat you as a bodhisattva in the future" Looking at Zhang Miao's expression, he definitely didn't believe that Han Wang could grow fresh vegetables in winter, but he didn't refute it out of politeness.
In the end, the adults and children returned satisfied, and the children's pockets were full of candied pastries stuffed by the golden lady, saying that they were to take them back to their grandmothers and mothers to taste. As for the tenants, Lao Xia each prepared two large and two small homespun fabrics, saying that it was a return gift from the lord and buying a new set of clothes for the adults and children.
The tenants went home with their children with great gratitude, thinking about the low rent, the house that was about to be built, and the fabric in their hands, this kind of homespun cloth is the strongest, made into clothes, and it will not be worn out for two or three years, and they have really found a good owner!
Waiting for Lao Xia to send off the tenants and return to the lobby, Han Wang asked, "Lao Xia, tell me, how many fields does Han Mansion have now?" ”
"Back to the master, a few days ago, a big rich man changed hands, and the old slave calculated that the price was fair, so he persuaded his wife to buy 500 acres of Shangtian and 800 acres of Zhongtian." Lao Xia was a little weak-hearted, after all, such a big money transaction was not authorized by Han Wang. (To be continued.) )
