Chapter 246: Sorrow
There is something about this when everyone talks about it.
There are many people who are silent, and they also know what the two of them think in their hearts, or regrets, why don't they think the same way in their hearts. However, when it comes to the question of silver, it is so realistic.
But there are also people who don't care much, such as Xue Kejing, the third child, "We didn't let them plant, if they can find sweet potatoes, they can plant a few acres, and they can plant a few acres if they want to." ”
Shen very much agrees with his niece's point of view, "That is, we got the sweet potatoes with our own skills, why do we have to think about what others are doing when we grow a sweet potato by ourselves?" ”
"What's the saying? How many people can help others at the expense of their own interests? ”
"Yes, daughter, brother and daughter-in-law, you two still think too much, and we haven't hurt anyone, why should we be ashamed of earning money? Just because you didn't do good deeds? ”
Xue Yuhe, who was on the side, also joined the topic of several people, "Sister-in-law and the third child are right, it is because we have our own ability, and we have the help of nobles to have this opportunity." This silver should be earned by us, and it is still earned by our hard work, no matter how you say it, you can earn it with peace of mind! ”
"Actually, we don't think that this silver shouldn't be earned, but this is a little deliberate in our hearts, we could have helped more people, but..."
"Hey, that's not right, who said we didn't help more people? How many laborers have been hired to provide them with the opportunity to work in these hundreds of thousands of acres of sweet potato land, and don't they earn a lot of silver because of this? ”
"There are more than 110,000 acres of land to be cultivated, and the wages paid here are even more, isn't this a great thing, and now I don't know how many people say that our family is a living bodhisattva."
"Anyway, we won't have any conscience or anything."
"We are not officials, where can we manage so many things in the world."
"Moreover, we can also earn more silver for the Zheng family by doing this, and their Zheng family is a great benevolent person, if we can have more silver, we can benefit more people in the world, this is also a great thing!"
。。。
Seeing that a few people started, other people who were originally a little hesitant also talked about how many good deeds they had done and how many people they had helped.
In the end, Xue Linjing calculated an account for them.
So far, more than 30,000 taels of silver have been earned for the villagers alone.
The population of the entire town of Xinwen is only more than 60,000 people, and there are only more than 10,000 households.
It is equivalent to providing each family with an additional income of three taels of silver.
If calculated in terms of miscellaneous grain noodles, it is equivalent to allowing each villager to earn a month's worth of rations.
Listening to Xue Linjing's calculation, everyone was more at ease, and they didn't feel that their monopoly had anything.
As for Xue Langjing, when he found out that he could earn so much silver, his attitude had already been biased towards Xue Kejing and others.
I didn't express too many opinions this time, but I just listened to the conversation and wondered what their attitude was.
After everyone talked for a while, they saw Tang, who had not spoken before, and asked Wen An on the side, "Mr. Wen, what do you think?" ”
She was born into a wealthy family, and she was full of poetry and books, so her opinions were naturally higher than those of ordinary people.
made Tang faintly feel in his heart that only by getting her affirmation could the name of his own good deeds be confirmed.
Seeing Wen An nodding in affirmation, "Naturally, as long as you don't do things that harm others and benefit yourself, and don't harm the interests of others, you can be regarded as a conscientious businessman."
And not only have you never done anything bad, but you also give benefits to the people from time to time, and it is not an exaggeration to say that you are a good person, just look at the attitude of the people around you. ”
"Then we didn't publish this sweet potato, monopolized it, and didn't save more people, are we still good people?"
Wen An disagreed with this, "No, no, no, this sweet potato was found by your own family, what does it have to do with others?"
If you feel that your conscience is uneasy because you haven't made it public, what should those high-ranking nobles do?
They enjoy the fruits of the work of the people at the bottom, and as long as they take out a part of their wealth and give it to the people for the benefit of the people, the people will also be able to have enough food and clothing, can everyone see that their conscience is uneasy?
If the landlords who own a lot of land can give part of their property, and the people can also be fed, will they condemn themselves?
They can, and so can you..."
Hearing people like her say this, everyone was completely relieved, and they could earn this money with peace of mind.
In this way, the people will no longer dwell on the matter.
It was night, in Xue Langjing's study.
She strongly agreed with Wen An's words, and no longer dwelled on this matter.
Moreover, she will establish a clan in the future, and then she will be even more gracious to the villagers, and she will have to do a lot of good deeds, isn't this a great good deed?
It is her ability to monopolize this business, and if other people want to spread the sweet potato, it is simple, go to the mountains to find it, find them and promote it by themselves, she didn't say a word.
It is said that she can earn hundreds of thousands of taels of silver a year, and this silver is still the property in her name, which was completely unimaginable in the past.
In the future, a huge farm will be built, and a lot of silver will be earned at that time.
This family seems to be getting better and better.
There seemed to be nothing at home for her to worry about.
It's just that my own troubles are increasing day by day.
And it doesn't seem like silver can solve it.
A few months ago, she had only noticed that the effect of those beast flesh on her body forging seemed to be getting weaker and weaker, even if it was the more valuable of the medium beast meats.
But I don't think this is just the beginning.
As time passed, the forging effect of animal meat became less and less.
Even half a month ago, it simply failed completely. The high-grade beast meat didn't know, after all, with their current strength, they couldn't hunt it, but the medium-grade beast meat was all ineffective.
After another half a month of experimentation, she would go to the martial arts arena every day to test her strength, but there seemed to be no improvement in the slightest in the past half a month.
It's not that I haven't asked the other players, but none of them have ever been in this situation, and everyone is steadily improving.
Even Yi Xueqing is the same, and there is no sense of stagnation.
She seems to be the only one in this situation.
As the captain, his strength has not increased in the slightest, and he has stayed in place for a long time, while others are catching up, and if he continues like this, won't he always surpass himself one day?
This is an extremely dangerous thing, if one day she is really surpassed by the team, then where is the prestige of her as a captain?
Especially the income of this hunting team, she also takes the lion's share.
At that time, even if there are these contracts, other people will have opinions in their hearts, especially those who are stronger than themselves, how can they be willing to be subordinate to others and take less silver?
