In a few moments, everyone in the Zhao family gathered together again, the men went down to the river to catch fish and shrimp, and the women collected herbs.

As for the children in the family, they also have to do some small work, here and there, they have to help.

Li was in a good mood because of the discussion with Zhao Fuxiang just now.

called Yuan and told him to kill a pheasant and keep it for dinner in the evening.

"By the way, what about Erya?"

didn't see Zhao Yu, and Li didn't forget to ask.

Yuan thought that Li had something to do with Erya, so he hurriedly replied, "I haven't gotten up yet, mother, I'll call you." ”

"No," Li hurriedly interrupted Yuan's movements, "Don't call her, just let her sleep." ”

Thinking that Zhao Yu had been busy for a while in the morning, Li's heart was not good.

"By the way, you can go to my house and get two eggs back to boil them later."

"Erya eats little at noon, don't let her go hungry."

Yuan's ......

"Hey, mother, don't worry, I'm awake."

Yuan nodded hurriedly, although she didn't know why her mother was so good to Erya, but this did not prevent her from taking advantage.

That's an egg, her mother raised, and it's a baby on weekdays.

Normally, pregnant women and children can eat two bites.

"Don't forget, it's okay, just go get busy if you don't have anything to do," Li waved his hand and sent Yuan away.

After that, she turned around and went to the kitchen with a handful of herbs ready to be concocted.

……

The fact that they have recently made money by buying and selling river fish in Shangwa Village is well known.

So much so that every household in the village is very active in buying grain and goods.

On the road at the entrance of the village, almost every once in a while, the ox cart full of grain returned.

Zhao Fuxiang, who was hurrying to the river, met the juniors of the same clan who had returned from buying grain.

"Second uncle," the strong man with the national character face showed a mouthful of white teeth and smiled happily at him.

"It's good, what did you buy?"

Zhao Fuxiang nodded and glanced at the ox cart behind the strong man.

"It's sweet potato flour and corn, and some soybeans," the strong man named Shangui honestly introduced the contents of the ox cart.

Zhao Fuxiang asked, "What is the price of grain in the city now?" ”

"It's ten wen each," the smile on Zhao Shangui's face disappeared, and his tone was heavy, "Nowadays, food is becoming more and more difficult to buy." ”

"Yes, it's so frequent, you should buy more," Zhao Fuxiang thought, and began to wave his hand again, "Okay, you should go back quickly." ”

"It's better to finish the work earlier, so I can continue to fish, no matter what happens in the future, I can always use it to make some money now."

This is said to Zhao Shangui, and it is also said to himself.

"Eh, second uncle, you're right, then I'll go back first."

"Go back, go back,"

Zhao Shangui nodded, and drove the ox cart past a few people to the village.

Zhao Fuxiang carried the barrel and led everyone to continue walking.

Zhao Shanlin glanced back, hurriedly came to Zhao Fuxiang's side, and whispered, "Dad, do we still buy food?" ”

They bought it early, and the grain they bought was already piled up in several rooms.

"If you buy it for a few more days, you can't notice too much difference."

It's not a good thing to find out that they're making a lot of money.

"So, where do you put it after you buy it?"

Zhao Shanlin is helpless, their family has no land!

"Stupid, there's no land anywhere!"

Zhao Fuxiang lowered his voice and said, "Just put it in the cellar, and the things in the cellar will be vacated first and loaded with grain." ”

Zhao Shanlin nodded when he heard this, and said in his heart that this would be fine.

Anyway, the cellar was full of leftover dried vegetables and pickles.

Now that they have eaten almost everything, and the new dishes are about to come down, there is no need to stay longer.

Soon, the group reached the river.

The surrounding green willows are clinging, and the crowds are crowded.

The foreshores on both sides of the river are full of fishermen.

Everyone was talking and laughing while comparing who caught more fish.

Zhao Fuxiang and the others didn't stay long, and went directly to the place they occupied.

It is also lucky, the place where their house was not occupied by the Chen family before, and the Li family took people to directly change to the place where Zhao Fucheng was originally located to catch fish.

Later, due to the spread of the recipe for removing the fishiness of river fish, the price of low fish rose directly.

But because of the previous reasons, Zhao Fucheng's family is still not allowed to sell fish.

Seeing that everyone was selling, they couldn't do it at home, and Chen was directly sick with anger.

Lying at home sick and crooked, now that there is no command from her at home, it has become a pot of porridge, and the place they originally occupied is gone.

In this way, these two places were cheaper in the end.

The people in the village didn't say anything unpleasant because they were in the way.

In this way, relying on these two places, their family catches more fish and chicken food than other people.

According to the number of people who came, Zhao Fuxiang put down the wooden barrel and began to pick up the fish objects and work seriously.

When they come across fish and chickens, they all go to the bucket.

This one is done directly to the sunset.

Fishermen by the river also began to leave one after another.

Looking at the wooden barrels that were half full and still a little short, Zhao Fuxiang planned to fill them up before leaving.

"Second Uncle Xiang, Second Uncle Xiang"

Hearing someone shouting him in the distance, Zhao Fuxiang turned around and saw Zhao Shanzhou running towards him.

"Second Uncle Xiang, but let me find it easily."

"It's Shanzhou, what's wrong? What do you want from me? ”

Zhao Fuxiang was puzzled.

The heart said that Zhao Shanzhou still came to look for him.

Seeing Zhao Fuxiang's incomprehension, Zhao Shanzhou hurriedly explained, "Second Uncle Xiang, that's the case, my father came to you to discuss something." ”

Zhao Fuxiang sighed in his heart, it turned out that the patriarch Zhao Furui was looking for him, no wonder.

"Cheng, I'll go with you," Zhao Furui didn't let him wait too long, and Zhao Fuxiang didn't clean it up much, but only brought the more than half bucket of fish in his hand to Zhao Shanlin, and asked him not to forget to carry it home.

"In addition, tell your mother, I will go to the patriarch's house, and I don't have to wait for dinner."

Zhao Shanlin hurriedly nodded, indicating that he understood.

Seeing that the explanation was almost complete, Zhao Fuxiang wiped the drops of water on his hands, followed behind Zhao Shanzhou, and the two went to the patriarch's house upside down.

When he got home, Zhao Shanzhou hurriedly invited Zhao Fuxiang into the house, while he himself stayed at the door and did not go in.

Zhao Fuxiang said in his heart, so cautious, it seems that what he wants to say today is not small.

Push open the door.

Zhao Fuxiang raised his head and saw Zhao Furui sitting next to the kang at a glance.

In addition, there were several clan elders sitting on wooden benches on the ground.

Well?

What is this to say?

Looking at Zhao Furui, and then at the elders sitting on the wooden bench, Zhao Fuxiang was puzzled, and he didn't dare to ask. He walked straight to the empty wooden bench below and sat down.

The atmosphere around was gloomy.

After a long time, Zhao Furui spoke.

"Second brother, I came to you to tell you about the situation in the clan."

Zhao Fuxiang was stunned when he heard this, huh? What is the situation in the clan? What does it have to do with him?

"Second brother, the recipe you gave to the clan before is useful and useful."

"Right now, every family in the clan can make money and live because of your recipe, buy food and things."

"There's your credit for this."

"You deserve your clan for this."

Zhao Fuxiang was excited when he heard this, but he still waved his hand again and again, refusing, "I can't help it, I am all a member of the clan, how kind is this." ”

"You can't say that, Fuxiang," an elder sitting beside him began, "You should be rewarded for your contribution to the Zhao clan, otherwise, the rules of the clan will not become decorations, and it will not be successful." ”

"Yes, Fuxiang, this is the rule of our Zhao clan, and the law cannot be broken."

Although this rule has not been inherited for many years, and there are not many rewards that can be given.

But as an old man in the clan, he can't chill the hearts of the clansmen because of this.

Otherwise, their Zhao clan still has no face.

Zhao Fuxiang......

The people who speak here are all his elders according to their seniority, and the only junior is the patriarch Zhao Furui.

Zhao Fuxiang saw that he couldn't continue to refuse, so he agreed.

With this agreement, the atmosphere around him became relaxed again.

Zhao Furui had a smile on his face, he looked at Zhao Fuxiang and mentioned the reward, "Second brother, I won't hide it from you." ”

"After we discussed, we planned to directly set aside twenty-five acres of forest land from the clan to you."

"This ......" is a bit much, Zhao Fuxiang said in his heart.

Zhao Furui said, "However, it is all uncultivated forest land, which is a bit troublesome for you." ”

"So, let's change it again, ten acres of forest land are directly divided from the clan, and the rest will be supplemented with five acres of paddy fields and dry land for you."

"Paddy fields, dry land, and forest land are directly divided from the clan, and there are small land deeds in the clan, so there is no need to deliberately re-purchase them, as long as they go to the county office tomorrow to transfer their households."

"That way, it saves you trouble."

After Zhao Furui finished speaking, Zhao Fuxiang nodded, and at the same time, he also pondered what Zhao Furui had just said.

His heart was pounding, but Zhao Fuxiang didn't expect that he could be so white.

Originally, he wanted to buy five acres of land, but now he has fifteen acres more.

That's great!

Don't look at the final allocation, it's five acres less than the twenty-five acres of woodland at the beginning.

But that's not how the accounts are counted.

Paddy fields, not to mention the location of dry land, just talking about the ground, that is, grain can be directly planted.

The forest land is mostly hillside, not to mention that it is not easy to cultivate, and there will be no harvest in the first three years of reclamation.

Therefore, this final distribution is the most beneficial for him.

In this way, as long as he paid a small amount of silver, he directly had an extra twenty acres of woodland, paddy fields, and dry land out of thin air.

It's a good deal!
