Chapter 6: Su Su

"Master, elders, Su Su said that what I said today is related to experience." Xu Susu was neither humble nor arrogant

"What Su Su said just now is very clear, there are hidden dangers in the current career of our clan, so if we change it while this year's newcomers have not been trained, maybe we can still recall Brother Shaobai and them."

As he spoke, he began to give examples, elaborating, "Now is the autumn harvest season, and it is time to harvest the crops in the fields." ”

"In previous years, our Xu clan used to work hard for autumn harvest, planting fields, planting wheat, and harvesting wheat."

"The expenses spent here in a year, not to mention much, two hundred short-term workers, ten days at a time, thirty yuan a day for one person, two hundred people, then six taels of silver a day, ten days is sixty taels, four times a year, then two hundred and forty taels of silver."

"If we draw out a hundred of the people in the clan, then there will be a decrease of one hundred and twenty-four taels a year."

"Su Su remembers that the chewing in our clan is 200 wen yuan a month, that is, two coins of silver, and 2 taels of silver a year, and 49 households, just one hundred and twenty taels of silver."

As soon as Xu Susu's words came out, the eyes of Patriarch Xu and the four elders lit up.

In previous years, in order to maintain the superficial scenery, they did hire part-time workers.

As for the clan, no one has ever mentioned this, and everyone continues to live a life of abduction and abduction under the barely maintained livelihood.

And Xu Susu counted, it is still a part, and if you have to count it all, if you do miscellaneous things such as weeding and chopping firewood, you will not only have it in a year, but there will be more.

It is absolutely not a problem for each family to draw two laborers.

In addition, I can go hunting in the mountains and make a small living, so I am afraid that this life will not be too difficult.

The more Patriarch Xu and the four elders thought about it, the more feasible they felt, and when they were thinking about it, they forgot whether the people in the clan were willing to work.

After all, their people are all people who don't work except for cheating.

Sure enough, before the five of them could speak, the clan elders who were originally sitting in the two rows of the hall began to object.

"Xu Susu, what kind of fanciful nonsense are you talking about?"

"That's it, you're a fifteen-year-old girl, what do you know? Our Xu clan is a big clan, how can there be a big clan to do dirty work? ”

"That's right, we are a big clan, so we should maintain the demeanor of our big clan."

Hearing this, Xu Susu sneered and looked at the elders who were opposed.

Raise your eyebrows, walk in the hall, and point your hand

"Nonsense?"

"Clan?"

"Style?"

"As far as what our Xu clan does, you still dare to be here and talk to me about the demeanor of the clan?"

"Come, clan masters, tell me, the demeanor of our big clan is to be a langzhong, go to the street, and sell a pill for a hundred yuan of immortals, or be a Taoist priest and go to exorcise ghosts for big families?"

"Or, be a monk and go to recite scriptures to big families to overcome those unjust souls?"

"Our ancestors were good generals who defended their families and the country, but look at us now, what are we doing?"

"I'm not afraid that after a hundred years, I won't have the face to see my ancestors."

"We have become like this, it's not that our ancestors have scum." An old clan said with a swollen face.

"So you can be lazy and do all that stuff?" Xu Susu went back directly

"If so, then what's the difference between us and scum?"

"Now there is a bright road, if you don't go, do you have to wait until one day, when someone finds out, a group of people go to be mountain people, waiting to be surrounded and suppressed by the government?"

"I didn't say that." Obviously, the momentum of the clan elder has weakened.

Xu Susu said coldly, "Although you didn't say that, you did it subconsciously." ”

"I'm now, putting forward such an idea of reform, and you are here to tell me, what are we a big family, and we can't do any dirty work."

"I'll ask you, since you are a big clan, why don't you give the 1,000 acres of land in the clan to others like the Zhu and Lu clans, and give them to others, wear silk and satin, and live a life of calling slaves and maids?"

A scumbag, he dares to say that he has a big family demeanor, and he is not afraid of panic on his face.

"That's not because our clan is poor and has no choice but to do those things that do farming with ......." The clan elder's voice became smaller and quieter as he spoke.

Xu Susu sneered, "Since the fields are planted, what kind of dirty work are you afraid of?" ”

The clan elders were silent, and they all stared at the hall with straight eyes, and Xu Susu, who was the head of the road, blushed.

Seeing that no one refuted, Xu Susu turned around and looked at the three patriarchs Xu on the main seat

"Since you have no opinion, let's listen to what a few elders have to say to my master."

Patriarch Xu made a final decision, "This matter is according to what Su Su said, try to do it, it is feasible, we will call Shaobai and them back, no, let's implement the next one, hunting." ”

"And I decided with the four elders that this year's autumn harvest will not invite anyone, our Xu clan, except for those under the age of fifteen, there should be hundreds of people in the clan."

"Tomorrow morning, gather in the front yard, and each family over the age of 15 will have at least four people, and many families will have five people, regardless of gender, to go to harvest rice collectively."

A hundred people have been drawn, and it will not be a problem to draw more than a hundred.

As soon as Patriarch Xu spoke, no one dared to question it, and just as he was about to let everyone disperse, a girl dressed in red rushed in

"Let my sister go to the training in advance, I don't agree."

The person who came in was none other than Xu Susu's cousin, Xu Rongrong, she didn't hear what they said before, and she didn't inquire carefully about the experience in advance.

She only knew that as soon as she arrived at the entrance of the village from the town, she heard the clansmen who were looking for Xu Susu say that Xu Shaobai asked Xu Susu to go to the training with them in advance.

She didn't like Xu Shaobai to treat the sisters in the clan in the same way, obviously her sister was the one who had a marriage contract with him, but he was still hooking up with other women unclearly.

So when she heard the clansmen say that she had experienced in advance, she suspected that Xu Shaobai was using the experience to harm her sister, so she ran to the council hall to stop it.

Looking at the patriarch Xu on the main throne, "Master, that Xu Shaobai is uneasy and kind at first glance, how can you let Sister A go to the experience in advance?" ”

"You know, the second uncle is such a lone seedling as a sister, if he is harmed by Xu Shaobai, how can you let the second uncle look at it underground?"

Patriarch Xu's face was tense, his beard curled, and he scolded coldly

"Nonsense, how could the master harm Su Su?"

"Shaobai is Su Su's future husband, and your eldest brother is also by his side, so it is impossible for him to harm Su Su."

"You know, this is a good life for Su Su to live a daughter."

As he spoke, Patriarch Xu brought over a letter

"Take this for yourself."

He wouldn't even harm his clansmen, how could he harm his own granddaughter?
