The fruit trees of the Yang family for three years bear less fruit, a tree can be sold for about eight catties, and the account of one thousand taels is returned, the price difference between the fruit trees of the main three years and the fruit trees of the five years is not doubled, the price of the fruit trees for three years is three dollars of silver, the Yang family bought two thousand two hundred lessons, and sent more than 100 pieces, plus the survival rate of the Yang family is high, and they lived two thousand, and invested a total of more than 800 taels of silver, earning more than 100 taels.

Lizhou City followed the trend of planting apples, and there were some who made money and did not return to their capital, but they all saw the benefits, and they were happy if they didn't return to their capital.

Zhou Shuren also collected the fruit here, Lizhou City is now the most fruit merchants, Zhou Shuren ordered three years of fruit trees, some farmers received two planted in the yard, some received one, because of the small planting, a large family to take good care of, in addition to all kinds of dead, basically each can be sold in about ten catties.

After removing the money for the fruit trees returned to the yamen, the people who planted two fruits could have 400 yuan left, and those who planted one could also have 200 yuan, and the money for the fruit trees was repaid this year, and the money for selling the fruits in the coming year was their own.

The city of Liju is really full of cars and cars, and when the apples are all processed.

Zhulan found that Zhou Shuren had lost weight again, "Your hard-grown meat is gone again." ”

Zhou Shuren, "Recently, Lord Chen and I have been transferred from county to county, and we have to be busy checking the accounts and getting tired and thin, don't you see that Lord Chen is already thin, and now he is so thin that he can't support his official robe." ”

Zhulan rolled her eyes in her heart, Zhou Shuren couldn't hold up the official robe, and was embarrassed to say to others, "Now that the fruit is sold and the pigs are killed, you can also have a good rest." ”

Zhou Shuren was indeed relieved, all the silver released by the yamen was recovered, and the accounts on the yamen finally looked better.

Although the pig is not very big, the pig can be cut down and returned to the yamen's money, and there are still more than a dozen catties of pork left, whether the meat is sold, or kept for food, it is all earned by the people.

Zhou Shuren thought of the smiles on the faces of the people and the innocent words of the children, and also smiled, "The apples and pork sent to the capital will leave tomorrow." ”

Zhulan sighed, "The people are true and sincere, not to mention that your yamen has received apples and pork from various townships, our family has not been broken these days, and the pork at home does not need to be bought, and the harmful housekeeper Ding took people everywhere to the village to give money, and those who really don't collect money will take the grain and send it over, which is not collected, and some people send it back, no way, I personally said that it made sense that the people accepted the silver and grain." ”

Zhou Shuren also had a headache, "The officials of the yamen are also sending money everywhere, and their legs are thin these days." ”

Zhulan put her arms around Zhou Shuren's neck and bent her eyes, "This shows that you are a good official, the people recognize you very much, and I am proud of you." ”

Zhou Shuren felt that he was also very remarkable, he also asked the villages to sign contracts with the merchants, and the sales of the fruits were guaranteed in the next few years, and the noodles were also given to the merchants for free, but they needed to sign the deed, and they could only accept sweet potatoes and potatoes in the state, and he was not afraid that the people would plant fruit trees and give up growing food.

Apples are indeed valuable, but there are also risks, in case of natural disasters such as droughts, or fruit trees die of disease, or food is safe.

And sweet potato potatoes are high-yield crops, Lizhou City has also been planting sweet potato potatoes, planting is very experienced, one mu of 800 catties can be guaranteed, even if it is sold for a pound of penny, it is also 800 yuan, and there is a lot of silver left in paying taxes.

And in the event of a natural disaster, there are sweet potatoes and potatoes that can also be boiled with food.

The people of Lizhou City have experienced hunger, but they are still more willing to grow food.

And the price of fruit trees will definitely rise next year, and ordinary people still can't afford to invest, so Zhou Shuren is more at ease when he thinks about it.

The palace, the emperor is waiting for the news of Lizhou City, and the prince has not left, well, in fact, the emperor did not let the prince leave.

The person who reported finally sent the excerpt, and the emperor looked at the summary at a glance and ten lines, put down the excerpt and laughed: "Okay, okay, Lord Zhou left two guarantees for Lizhou City." ”

The prince has not seen the excerpts of Lizhou City this year, since the granary of Lizhou City finally has grain, he breathed a sigh of relief, just waiting for today's news.

The emperor handed the fold to the crown prince, "Take a look." ”

The prince browsed quickly, because it was urgent news, it didn't take a few days to get to the capital, the news on the excerpt that the pigs adopted by the people were killed, the prince hooked the corners of his mouth, "I'm still worried, the people are going to plant apples and not food, and I am also thinking about whether to write an excerpt to my father to set the rules for Lizhou City, I haven't written an excerpt yet, Lord Zhou has considered it, Lord Zhou put the vermicelli business district in Lizhou City, and in the future, Lizhou is not only the state of apples, but also the state of vermicelli." ”

The emperor's eyes are all smiling, this is the best news I heard this year, in the second half of this year, Lizhou attracted a lot of businessmen, and the merchants had more taxes, and the taxes in Lizhou were at the bottom at the best, and we can indeed look forward to it this year, "Our Lord Zhou is very good at using local resources." ”

In the past, the land in Lizhou was not fertile, and most of the crops were sweet potatoes, and winter wheat was planted after harvesting, but unfortunately the winter wheat yield was still pitiful.

There are too many sweet potatoes and no one wants them, and they can't collect much from taxes, but now Zhou Shuren has solved it according to the land, and my vision is really good.

The prince no longer wears a mask, which is indeed a great joy, "The apples and pork that Lord Zhou sent to the capital should depart." ”

The emperor touched his beard, "This year's reward for the ministers of the court is here, and everyone will get one point." ”

The prince smiled, his heart was clear, his father was not only to save money, but also to beat the ministers, not to mention that his father wanted more courtiers like Lord Zhou, he hoped that as long as the court eased up, the northeast border problem could be completely solved, his father founded the country, he also had ambitions, he hoped to expand the territory, cough, the premise is that he still ascends the throne safely in the position of the prince.

Lizhou City, Chen Chen was full of emotion, he really hadn't received anything from the people before, although he didn't receive more than Zhou Daren's family, Chen Chen's heart was also shocked.

Chen Chen sighed, "After being an official for so many years, I am trying to climb up step by step, and I only understand the meaning of the official robe on my body this year. ”

Hua Shi didn't realize it so profoundly, "Don't sigh, sir, it's not too early to rest." ”

Chen Chen, "....... Well. ”

Early the next morning, the convoy sent by Lizhou City to the capital set off, and Zhulan also received a letter from her hometown.

Zhou Lao Er explained that he had arranged his home, and he also collected a lot of mushrooms and other mountain goods.

After reading the letter, Zhulan counted the days, and according to the speed of the letter, Zhulan estimated that the second family should arrive in more than half a month.
