Chapter 46: Barracks in the Grass

The old ladies walked together, chattering idly, and summed up: "That Mrs. Hu is not an ordinary person!" ”

"Is that cousin of his an official?"

The old ladies are blind and think that Mrs. Hu is a big family, how can you see it?

People make big wagons in the mountains, cars with sheds. The carriage that followed behind the luggage also had sheds, and that was the rich man.

A few people couldn't get enough of it, so they pulled the money shopkeeper over, "Skewers, you say, who is Mrs. Hu?" Ning Zhong: Who are they Mrs. Hu? Say it's a nurse? ”

"A family on a big horse? What a pie! Brother Ling'er and his uncle, just call someone to come, and give us a thousand taels of silver, a thousand taels! ”

The money shopkeeper had some guesses in his heart, but he didn't dare to guess big, he thought!

"Mrs. Hu's nephew is designated as the official of Leping City, you see, people don't mention a word, and the silver is not mentioned. Ning Zhong can help us get back a few thousand catties of grain, this is one month's grain, and there will be next month, and we can receive it for half a year. ”

"Didn't you send it once? Monthly collar? That must be a big official, Hu Meizi said before, her family occupies the light of her nephew, it seems to be true. Aunt Zhao agreed.

Mrs. Song asked, "Who are the Ning boys?" ”

Qian Chuanzi analyzed again, "I can't say what the house slave is, what to say!" Ning boys said, they are all orphans, just like me and stuffy, I was adopted by my master, and Ning boys just let Mrs. Hu's family adopt them! ”

Oh, yes! Don't be a slave! Aunt Zhao muttered a little, if she is a slave, the daughter-in-law of the little kidnapper is not easy to say, and the poor family does not want her daughter to marry a slave!

"Emma, Lao Hu's family is quite rich!" Hua Pozi clapped her hands and said.

Mrs. Niu nodded, "That's rich, she said it, her mother's family is a butcher, and her mother-in-law's family is a soldier, it seems to be a head who manages people, don't care what it is, it's a rich family." ”

Mrs. Wang answered: "How can you be rich? There is only one lone seedling left in the family who dies, so don't worry about spending the money! ”

Qi Pozi said: "Over there, when the soldier dies on the battlefield, the government will give him sixteen taels of silver, and he will also give one year of grain and fine grain, and I heard that he will be exempted from paying taxes for three years." ”

"You're talking about the average big-headed soldier, who is a small-headed soldier who is in charge of people! Specify more. ”

Qian Chuanzi shook his head, these old ladies, chatting and chatting, they forked the way, slowed down and chatted with the man behind.

Fang Mingshi asked: "Brother Skewers, what do the old ladies say?" I looked, Aunt Hu's cousin and nephew looked like a big official, and when I stood there, I looked at it and my legs and stomachs turned tendons. ”

Qian Chuanzi nodded and said: "I feel like, what you said is the official authority, the momentum that can only be cultivated by being an official for many years." ”

Fang Mingyuan asked the officer, "We want to do the red deed, we want to open the paperwork, you said that there are no residents in Fenggu Town, where do we belong to the Lizheng?" ”

The official smiled, "Lizheng? There are three or five villages here, one is good, there is no way, there are few people, more than 300 people have moved like you, we are a big village here, your nearest Fengdeng Village, counting the baby in your arms, at most a hundred people. ”

"Nothing? We ...... "Amya! This is a broken place, and the village chief doesn't have it.

The official waved his hand and said: "It's okay, it's okay, settle down first, open up the wasteland, and don't send someone from the Yamen!" ”

The patriarch listened to this and said to the third uncle: "There are only about 100 people in a village, and it is not worth making a good job." ”

Fang Mingyuan then inquired about prices. The official glanced at him, "Leping City is not cheap, enter the city to do business, and pay the gate tax of two copper plates first."

There is also a place for stalls, the stalls on Mahang Street do not collect tax silver, Guanzheng Street does not allow stalls, cars and horses are not allowed to stay, the Erdao Street on both sides of Guanzheng Street, and the diagonal street are allowed to set up stalls, but they have to pay tax silver. ”

How much? The eyes of the officials have changed, are you stupid, I am an official, no matter how I patrol the streets, how do I know about the tax and silver of the merchants?

"Or you're a big gathering! No one cares, just set up a stall casually, and say that the village goes to Leping City to sell a few eggs, which is not enough to earn tax money. The official said that his family often came to Fenggu Town to buy.

Oops! That's good, what's Fenggu Town like?

The official didn't bother to say, what's it, you will know when you arrive, besides, Fenggu Town will be your home in the future, what do you want, you can do it yourself!

Starting from Leping City, everyone was very excited, and finally arrived, they were going to have a new home, and it was the barracks they used to be. That's a good place! The barracks of the garrison outside our city are very large, with big blue bricks and tiles!

There was a pile of grain on the car, and Fang Yue, who was too young to walk, sat on the high grain truck. Every time she looked down at her mother, she always felt that in the next second, her mother would collapse.

I walked for nearly six hours, from eight or nine o'clock in the morning to two o'clock in the afternoon. God-like perseverance made my mother persevere to the end!

The official pointed to a row of blue brick houses on the west side of the official road and said, "It's here." ”

Is this the town of Fenggu? Green brick house! Give us such a good house to live in?

Before the old lady could get excited, the servant spoke.

There is a market here, every Wednesday and September, people from several nearby villages and counties come here to catch up with the big market, this row of houses is built for the merchants on the market, and it has been rented out.

Co-authoring is not for them to live!

In front of the house is a large open space, obviously the location of the market stall, the ground is not clean, but the weeds that are more than half a person tall behind it, this piece looks very tidy.

The official pointed to the roof behind the barren grass and said: "The barracks are inside, you pack up and live, there were many garrisons here before, and there were enough barracks, and they were designated to live." ”

What? Is the grassy house on the roof for us? Are you sure you can live there?

The officials didn't hear anyone talking nonsense, and thought that these people were quite sensible, and they didn't make the same noise as other relocated residents.

Actually, at this time, the villagers have the heart to cry, Mingyuan said that it is not okay to cry, let's endure it, don't cry! Besides, what's the use of crying, can you make a house a good house?

No one spoke, and I couldn't help crying when I opened my mouth.

This is the new home they have moved from thousands of miles to the mountains and the soles of their feet are worn out?

The official then introduced: "There are several wells in the barracks, and you can use them yourself. Don't look at the, the house is a tiled house of blue bricks and bluestone, it has not been inhabited for many years, grow some grass, except for it. ”

Fang Mingyuan finally found his voice, "Ah, ha! Well, we live here, where are the fields? ”

That is, if the house is divided, the field can't be like this!

The official smiled, and pointed to the back of a row of commercial houses, "See! From here to the north, seven or eight miles are the boundaries of Fenggu Town, all of which are good land, but they are barren...... Years?

It's nothing to be wasteland, we have a lot of wasteland here, just plant it, you open up wasteland, as long as you plant food, don't care what you plant, even if you grow vegetables, it's your land.

When the time comes, we will go to the yamen to report, let's come down to measure and get a red deed for you. ”

You're so generous!

No one answered, and the official thought that he hadn't explained, so he drew a circle with his arm, "See, seven or eight miles to the north, there is a border over there, and ...... to the west." The side of the mountain is also a good land, not to mention the east, the east side of the official road is the land of Fengdeng Village, you can plant it casually, you can plant it casually. ”

"Oh, I see." Fang Mingyuan tried his best to let his voice squeeze out of his throat.

The official nodded with satisfaction, and it was good to see that there were scholars, and he would understand as soon as he said it.

"What, you have received grain seeds today, seven or eight hundred catties of wheat seeds, plant them quickly, you are late, and you won't be able to grow food in half a month, hurry up, we have planted wheat here." The official kindly reminded.

Fang Mingyuan opened his mouth slightly, this is going to farm? How? This is not a bare wasteland, it is a weedy field with half-human tall barren grass, and it will take half a month to clean it up!

The official smiled and said to Fang Mingyuan: "Okay, you have arrived at the place, hurry up and clean up!" I have to go back. ”

No way! "Don't, don't go, wait, wait." Fang Mingyuan stretched out his hand and grabbed the servant.
