Chapter 81: Decent People (Three Watches)
Seeing the fierce reaction of the homeless, Yan Sui was also excited.
He thought to himself that the fourth girl was a real genius, and she could come up with the idea of renting land cheaply.
Look, a low-rent field will mobilize the enthusiasm of the displaced people.
It can be described as a stroke of genius.
He held the tin horn and coughed heavily, "Hey, hey, don't talk about it, listen to me." Regarding this low-rent field, in the next few days, everyone will be divided into groups to register with the public housing and create a file for you. ”
"When you open up 50 acres of wasteland, you can get low-rent land. The more land is cleared, the more low-rent land will be received. It is best for each family to register a file, and whichever family meets the condition of cultivating 50 acres of wasteland first can give priority to low-rent land. ”
"That's right, you heard it right, as long as you reach the conditions of 50 acres of land reclamation within this year, you can choose the low-rent land that belongs to you in the place designated by the owner. By next year, it will be a different set of rules. ”
"Why? Because next year, more people will come here to clear the wasteland, and the rules will definitely have to be changed by then. And you, as the first batch of pioneers, will have an advantage that no one else can match. This is also a benefit for everyone from the owner. Is the owner good to you? ”
"Good!" Tens of thousands of homeless people roared in unison, and the scene was extremely shocking.
As the saying goes, there are tens of thousands of people, and there is no boundary!
A "good" shook Yan Sui.
Those who saw such a scene for the first time were even more unbearable, trembling and pale.
Yan Sui struck while the iron was hot, and yelled at the top of his voice, "Do you want cheap rental land?" ”
"Yes!"
Ten thousand people roared in unison, and the ground shook.
Yan Sui was infected by everyone's emotions, and waved his arms excitedly, "Then work hard to open up the wasteland." Remember, it's possible that your low-rent land is the land you are cultivating now. So everyone work more carefully, be numb, and don't think that it is not your own field.
Besides, five acres of low-rent land is not enough to feed a family, so you must rent another land to cultivate. Considering that everyone is in difficulty, the owner only takes 50% of the rent for the land other than the low-rent field. For the first two years, the proprietor even provided you with farming tools and cattle for free. By this time next year, it will certainly not be as good as it is now. ”
"What about the seeds? When we rent the field, will the owner return the seeds? ”
Seeds are expensive, and for the majority of small people in the world, seeds are a big expense.
You can keep your own seeds.
It's just that the seeds kept by myself are not as good as the seeds sold by the government.
Moreover, in the first year, there was no grain harvest, so naturally there was no way to keep seeds.
Yan Sui said affirmatively: "Of course, if you want to give the seeds, they will be given to you at cost price, no interest, and they will be paid off within two years." This is not too heavy a burden for everyone. ”
"And what about us bachelors? If one person cultivates fifty acres of wasteland, it may not be completed in a year! Can you lower the requirements a little, not 50 acres, and give low-rent land to 20 acres of wasteland, okay? ”
"That's not going to work!" Yan Sui shook his head again and again, "The rules set by the owner, fifty acres is the bottom line, and it can't be changed." You are a bachelor, and you are afraid that the wasteland will not be enough, so hurry up and get married! Save a province, save some dowry, or help the old man work for a few more days, marry a daughter-in-law and go home to form a family, two people will definitely work faster than one. This year, I will rent the land cheaply, and next year I will have a big fat boy. ”
"Hahaha......"
The homeless people burst into laughter.
Many bachelors present also laughed along, their eyes scanning the girls in the same group or other groups, and they had already begun to look for a daughter-in-law.
Big girls, not shy.
Generous, staring at the men.
You must find a man who works hard and has a lot of strength to marry.
Men have the same idea, they must find a girl with big shoulders and a round waist and a good job to marry home.
The two of them are harmonious and beautiful, work hard, and they can live a good life in two or three years.
The atmosphere was warm, and Yan Sui immediately announced the third thing.
"The third thing, there will be two grocery stores in the village. Everything from furniture, farm implements, and cattle to needlework and cloth are all sold. You can exchange grain for goods, or you can barter directly. If there were copper coins, it would be even better. As for the price, you can rest assured that Tong Su will not be bullied, and it will never be more expensive than the one in the town. ”
Some homeless people ridiculed and roared at the top of their voices, "Is there a daughter-in-law for sale?" ”
Hahaha......
The crowd burst into laughter.
Yan Sui scolded, "Get out!" Declare in advance that the grocery store does not have a daughter-in-law to sell. If you want to marry a daughter-in-law, you can figure it out yourself. If someone has a little craft and makes something, they can also take it to the grocery store and sell it on consignment, or sell it directly to the grocery store.
All in all, the proprietors have taken into account all the necessary aspects of your life. Let me ask you, have you ever seen such a kind owner in the past few decades? Why don't you work hard to clear the wasteland? ”
"Don't worry, Steward Yan, we are all people who know kindness and righteousness. The owner treats me well, and we won't do that thing that is worse than a pig or a dog. If someone secretly makes a mistake, there is no need for the Great Steward Yan to bother, we will directly find him out, and it is up to the Chief Steward to kill or chop him. ”
Yan Sui was very excited, "With your words, the owner's hard work has not been in vain." Okay, today the big guy has a half-day rest, register those who should register, and go to find a daughter-in-law if they should marry a daughter-in-law. ”
The crowd dispersed, and everyone was smiling.
There are only a few people who are cheating and cheating, and their faces are sad.
At a minimum, 50 acres of land must be cleared to obtain low-rent land.
This condition is really higher.
For those who are willing to put in the effort, fifty acres is not difficult.
But for those who steal and cheat, fifty acres will cost you your life!
Moreover, the amount of land cleared every day is closely related to food rations.
From now on, if you want to fish in troubled waters and eat a big pot of rice, don't even think about it.
Leaving
Going to the capital to beg for a living?
Among the more than 10,000 people, there are always people who don't want to work and want to be opportunistic.
In the days that followed, they left.
With the amount of land they open up every day, the food rations they earn are not enough to eat.
Not to mention saving a province and leaving some food for the winter.
Since there is no hope of clearing the wasteland, then leave decisively and find another way out.
For these people who left, as long as they returned the farm tools, Fugui Villa did not embarrass them, and even gave them two nests to eat on the road.
The people who left, after all, are in the minority.
There is a person who is lazy by nature, and has no other survival skills except farming, so he finally chooses to stay.
Strive to marry a capable daughter-in-law, and you can do less yourself.
Or rely on family support.
At the end of the day, it's still opportunistic.
For these people, Nirvana will not interfere.
Cancel the big pot of rice, work more and earn more.
Work less, earn less.
No matter how much you do, you won't lose money anyway.
Two grocery stores were opened.
Right next to the cafeteria.
The canteen is still there, and there are no less than 100 people in charge of the villa, and there will be more in the future.
These people all eat in the cafeteria.
The first grocery store, named North and South Grocery Store, specializes in oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, pots and pans, large and small furniture and other daily necessities.
Another shop, named Four Seasons Cloth Village, specializes in needles and threads, all kinds of fabrics, bedding, and even ready-to-wear.
Ready-to-wear garments are available in five sizes: large, medium, and small, plus plus, plus, and large.
Just opened, the north and south grocery stores are doing well.
In a few days, there are those who are willing to work hard, and they have saved up some food.
Grain in exchange for salt, pots and pans.
Every day at noon, especially in the evening, after work, the north and south grocery stores are crowded with people.
Most of them don't buy it, they just look at it and enjoy it.
Or they have a budget in mind, how many days they have to work, and how much food they have to save to buy their favorite things.
The point is that the guys in the grocery stores in the north and south are very talkative, and they don't rush people if they don't buy it.
This is very different from the experience of going to the shop to buy things in the past.
As a result, after dinner, many homeless people regard visiting grocery stores as a rare pastime of the day.
As for the Four Seasons Cloth Village, the courtyard is cold.
Within a few days of opening, more than a dozen orders of business were made.
It was the stewards and men of the villa who took care of the business, so they had performance.
Poor outcasts!
Save a little food, and hold on to the most important things.
There is simply no room to buy ready-to-wear fabrics.
Needles and threads, and I can't use them for the time being.
The guys from the Four Seasons Cloth Village were sent from the capital, and the business was so cold and boring that they lay on the counter and counted the leaves outside the door to play.
Fortunately, the owner is kind, taking this situation into account in advance, and taking a basic salary in the first year to ensure that the guy has enough income.
After a year, the reclamation of Shuize Township has become a scale, and the displaced people who have settled down have money in their hands, and when the business is better, the income can be changed to a basic salary plus performance bonus.
The guy stuck his head out, looked at the grocery store next door, and sighed, "I don't know when this business will get better." ”
No customers, no business, life is difficult!
As soon as he finished sighing, a guest walked in.
When I looked closely, it turned out to be Mr. Han.
The guy was excited, and quickly walked out of the counter and greeted him warmly.
Han Qizong received his salary, saved up six days off, and prepared to go home.
The clothes on the body are still the same as when they came to apply, they are clean and clean, but they are about to be washed.
A patch on the left, a patch on the right, it's really not decent enough.
He wants to go home, he wants to dress up decently and let everyone in the village know that he Han Qizong has turned over.
He doesn't have to rely on his family to support him, and he can still give money to his family.
Approaching departure, Han Qizong plans to buy ready-to-wear clothes.
If you look at people in clothes and dress decently, others will be polite to him.
He is now in Nirvana Villa, and he is also a person of status.
In charge of the accounts, he opened classes and brought twenty students to teach literacy and arithmetic.
Everyone else respectfully calls him Mr. Han.
Han Qizong enjoys the feeling of being respected and cherishes this job.
He taught very hard, and his students were also competitive, so he was paid five dollars a month.
On weekdays, he eats and lives in the villa.
Before the shop opened, there was no place to spend money.
The paychecks were all saved.
Two months, ten dollars.
A lot of money.
Let him have the confidence to walk into the Four Seasons Cloth Village.
