070 Zhuangzi

The first time I saw Zhuangzi, the grain was very fresh, Zhuangzi covers a wide area and is very spectacular, think about more than 500 acres of land and two barren mountains together, build a wall to enclose it, what is it like?! It's like a small city.

Although Gu Yu's face was calm, he couldn't hide the shock in his eyes, in order to let Gu Yu also come out to see the world, Gu Li deliberately put her in men's clothes, and came out to see Zhuangzi with her, which was also a distraction.

At this time, Gu Yu really never thought that his sister would have such a great ability, and their family would have a grange.

As soon as you enter the Zhuangzi, what you see is a large rectangular grain field, two barns on the left side of the back, and the brick house where the long-term worker lives on the right, the tile house is very neat, and the aisle of 4 carriages is walked through the middle at the same time, and behind the house is a large piece of land, which is endless, and it really makes people happy to see it.

At the foot of the hill there is a pond or living water, and the water comes down from the spring on the hill and flows down the ditch to another stream outside the wall and behind the Zhuangzi; Because of the living water, many canals can be seen in the crop fields, some have water, some have no water, but it is convenient for the crops to be watered; This Zhuangzi is very regular, the fields are basically boxy, the dry land is close to the pond so it is not regular, and there is a small vacant land that is currently idle.

After turning around, they were greeted by more than 10 peasant men at the gate of the grain field, but they were all very thin and weak, and their spirits were not bad, but they were nervous.

When I heard that these 10 people were serving these 500 acres of land on weekdays, I was shocked, exploiting! The exploitation of Chiguoguo!

However, Lu Dajiang said that generally only farming and harvesting are the most tiring, and the crops are not heavy on weekdays, and Yunhai Town can only grow one season of rice when it is cold, and the land is idle in winter;

Dry land on the planting of some beans, sweet potatoes or something, winter can grow some cabbage, radish for the winter, 10 people are also busy, generally Zhuangzi in the busy season, will invite short-term workers to come to help, these long-term workers are signed contracts at least more than 3 years.

There was no need to look closely at the layout of Zhuangzi, Gu Li nodded, and immediately took the silver ticket to Dongfang Xu to bring the Wenjun housekeeper, and he and the Qu family went to hand it over.

The famous rich Qu family in Yunhai Town, Gu Li still remembers the "Boss Wen, I am the Dongcheng Qu family, I want all 2000 taels, and send them to me together" When the fur auction was last time, I saw that the young lady in the family seemed to have to grab clothes without money.

The transaction price has been negotiated before, and the title deed is ready, just wait for the buyer to see the nod and pay the money in one hand and the land deed in the other, and then go to the yamen to file up.

One is a registered property, and the other is a title deed. Dongfang Xu signed a guarantee for the Chinese, no matter who the Zhuangzi was in anyone's hands, no one dared to mess with it, gave the silver ticket to the housekeeper of the house, and let the Qu family withdraw first after checking the title deed, and when the transfer was made, they called their master to go to the yamen, and left the contract of 10 long-term workers and a few keys when leaving.

Dongfang Xu sat on a carved wooden chair in the grain field, crossed Erlang's legs and said to a Zhuang head, "This is your new owner," he said, and stretched out his finger to the three of them. No. 3 Chinese Network

Gu Li saw that everyone present looked at her with a surprised expression, thinking that it was really a person who relied on clothes and horses to rely on saddles, it was not false at all, it was estimated that they thought that a few of them were here to work, especially he and Lu Dajiang were still dressed as beggars, but Gu Yu was dressed more decently.

Zhuangtou Yang Zhongren looks quite calm, and he still has the eyesight of grains, and he is quite satisfied with this person, you must know that the Qu family is also a rich family, and it is impossible to find some useless people, these 10 people are not the kind of people who are too alive when they look at their faces.

"The owner, my name is Yang Zhong, I am the head of the village here, I signed a 5-year contract with the former owner, and there are still half a year left in the contract" Yang Zhong spoke very calmly, but there was still a trace of apprehension in his words, and he probably panicked because he was worried about being fired.

Gu Li saw that he had a respectful attitude and spoke very generously, and from the short interaction between several people, she knew that several of them were her masters, and she did not take the neatly dressed men's Gu Yu as the principal, so it was really good to have this eyesight.

and Shang Dongfang Xu did not have the flattering and humble attitude when facing rich and powerful people, and immediately had a little appreciation for him.

Gu Li looked at him and smiled slightly, "You are still an old man, if you want, I can renew the contract with you for another 5 years now, if you can sign 2 consecutive five-year contracts with me, I will sign a permanent contract for you, even if this Zhuangzi is sold, I can let the next family keep you." So, can you let me reuse you, one by your loyalty, two by your strength, and three by your patience"

Yang Zhong was very surprised, looked at the grain seriously, and found that she was not joking at all, and then said with some joy and pressure, "Xie Dongjia, I will definitely work hard and never live up to the love of the owner."

Gu Li nodded, and at the same time looked at the others, their eyes had a hint of joy and hope more than Fang Cai's apprehension, as if they had concluded that Gu Li was a good talking owner, and seemed to have fixed the image of Gu Li as a 'good owner'.

"How much is your salary a month, and there are a few long-term workers here," Gu Li looked at Yang Zhong and continued to ask.

"Back to the owner, my monthly silver is 500 yuan, and the others are 300 yuan, and there are 6 people who have been working for a long time, and most of them have renewed their contracts for 3 years."

Gu Li frowned, and the people present didn't understand what she meant, so they immediately became worried again, and a few of them looked like loyal people, nervously rubbing the corners of their clothes.

Exploitation, 300 wen a month, only 3 taels of silver a year, even if there are only 200 acres of land, 500 catties of grain per mu, more than 100,000 catties of grain alone, according to the medium grain price of 20 wen a catty, there are more than 2,000 taels of grain sold, and there are 300 acres of dry land, and then there are seeds, fertilizers and other labor, that is also a harvest, but also money, even if you have to pay grain tax, you can earn a lot, no wonder the landlord has money.

But the labor cost is only a few dozen taels of silver a year, no wonder they all say that the landlord class exploits it, no wonder the peasants are poor, especially those who rent tenants, the grain has to be handed over to the landlord 4 percent of the hard work for a year, and the rest of the family is not enough to make a living, no wonder everyone wants to be a landlord, but if there is a good field of more than 10 acres at home, the harvest is not only enough to eat, but also has surplus grain to sell for money, and can live a richer life.

Dongfang Xu looked at the unpredictable face of the grain curiously, and felt that she didn't think that the salary was high, but the salary of the Qu family was higher.

Yang Zhong is the most worried here, his salary is 6 taels of silver a year, which is not low, and he can be regarded as a subordinate in Yunhai Town.
