Chapter 311: Buying Land [1]
It's a pity that he doesn't need much in the restaurant, so he can't help Brother Tiezhu's family, but fortunately, Brother Tiezhu's family has a relationship with the imperial merchants in the capital, and he doesn't have to worry about things not being sold.
Later, Zhang Tiezhu took Su Jinse to the county government and sent some corn to Lord Liang and Zhao Yang.
Lord Liang was very excited when he learned that Zhang Tiezhu had planted corn, he didn't expect Zhang Tiezhu to be so powerful and really grow corn! No wonder His Majesty only rewarded Zhang Tiezhu's family with corn, and did not give any gold jewelry! It seems that His Majesty must want Zhang Tiezhu to plant corn too!
"Brother Zhu, I didn't expect you to be so powerful, I must write to tell Master Jiang about this good news!" Lord Liang said excitedly.
After the two had a quarrel for a while, Zhang Tiezhu left the yamen with Su Jinse.
Because Zhang Tiezhu still had to buy some rice and noodles, he went shopping, and he also gave Su Jinse a string of money, so that she could buy it herself when she saw what she wanted or liked to eat.
After purchasing, Zhang Tiezhu drove the ox cart back to the village.
After Jiang Feng learned that Zhang Tiezhu had planted corn, he led people to Shangzhuang Village overnight for a few days, and he was stunned when he saw so much corn, this iron pillar is really amazing! It's a good hand at farming!
Zhang Tiezhu said that this corn was given by His Majesty, and he was willing to pay half of the tribute to the emperor, and the other half was sold to the imperial merchant Xu Gongzi.
Xu Gongzi arrived in Shangzhuang Village half a month later, and transported half of the corn away, half of the corn was only about 800 catties, and it was sold for 20 taels, 25 yuan per catty.
Xu Gongzi was very emotional about this, this Zhang Tiezhu's family is really too simple and honest, this corn is a tribute, even if it is sold for 100 wen a catty, he will take it all, but Zhang Tiezhu only sells it for 25 wen a catty.
Just like the yam before, he only sold him for twenty yuan a catty.
So he decided that even if he brought yam corn to the capital, he would not sell it at a high price, except for the cost and manpower and material resources, just earn a little more.
In addition, Zhang Tiezhu also left corn seeds, ready to plant another stubble, and cover the field with greenhouses, if it is winter, then there is no fear of not being able to grow vegetables in winter.
This time Zhang Tiezhu planted corn, Lord Liang didn't ask Zhang Tiezhu for seeds again, last time Zhang Tiezhu was willing to donate so many potatoes as seeds to everyone, and taught everyone how to plant, how could he ask others again.
Although Zhang Damin was a little red-eyed, he was also very knowledgeable and did not speak.
However, in the village, Zhang Youqiang's daughter-in-law and Yu Laidi were spreading bad words about Zhang Tiezhu everywhere.
Zhang Youqian's daughter-in-law was dissatisfied: "Last time, Zhang Tiezhu took potatoes for everyone to plant, but this time he actually hid and didn't give everyone corn seeds, which is really too stingy!" ”
Yu Laidi answered: "That's it!" I think he obviously received a reward from His Majesty, so he doesn't take my neighbors and relatives seriously! ”
"So many corn seeds, they swallowed them privately, stingy ghosts! Eat, eat, why don't you eat them! ”
When some villagers in the village heard this, they immediately agreed, thinking that Zhang Tiezhu should not hide these corn seeds, but should take them out and share them with everyone.
Erdanniang passed by, heard everyone's conversation, and was so angry that she slammed the hoe in her hand to the ground, and said angrily: "You white-eyed wolves! Guy with no conscience! Last time, Zhang Tiezhu's family donated more than 2,400 catties of potatoes and confiscated everyone's money, what do you want? ”
