Chapter XXVII
Relatives and insects, this week's impact on the newcomer list, all kinds of votes are urgently needed, and if you have a ticket, please vote for Yixin ^^)
In the middle of the night, Jiang Zhixuan, Xiaoxiao, and Uncle Jiang rushed back to Zhenlong Town and took a break at Jiang Zhixuan's house. Xiaoxiao hurried to the kitchen to get some snacks and tea, and gave them to the six escort officials. Only then did he keep thanking them all the way and sent them back to the county office.
Sending the official out of the door, he turned around and came back, but he saw Uncle Jiang, Second Uncle, and the two brothers Jiang Yun and Jiang Feng, all of them looking radiant, and they didn't seem to be sleepy. Several people were still discussing the matter of repairing the house for the couple and the couple, while Jiang Zhixuan was sitting a little farther away, bowing his head and contemplating something.
Seeing this, Xiaoxiao walked over slowly and stroked his shoulder:
"Husband, what are you thinking?"
Hearing this, Jiang Zhixuan raised his head and looked at her:
"Xiaoxiao, my husband is thinking, the second uncle and the two cousins are already in a tight family. Although the uncle has some spare money, as a lizheng, he also has a large family to support. What's more, it is the spring ploughing season now, and let them contribute money and efforts to repair the house for us, and the husband is really a little unhappy. ”
Xiao Xiaoyan smiled, her own thoughts were the same as Jiang Zhixuan's, and she was really husband and wife:
"Husband, I mean the same as you, although this house is dilapidated, it is enough to shelter from the wind and rain. What's more, there are just you and I at home, no matter how big and good the house is, it is a waste if no one lives in it, but it is empty and frightening! ”
When Jiang Zhixuan heard her say this, he first nodded, and then said guiltily:
"In that case, then we thank the eldest and second uncles for their kindness and politely resign them. It's just that...... I still have to wronged you to live a hard life with your husband! ”
"Husband, you are now Xie Yuanlang, Lord Qin, Lord He all appreciate you, and even the emperor admires you. Xiaoxiao walked out, I don't know how many people are envying Xiaoxiao, such a hard life, I'm afraid everyone is willing to live! Your brain, you don't need to think so much, just work hard, and in the spring three years later, on the occasion of the gold list, won't our life be better? ”
Jiang Zhixuan nodded: "Xiaoxiao, as a husband, I must let you live a life of fine clothes and food, do you believe me?" ”
Xiao Xiao met his longing eyes and nodded very firmly:
"Of course I believe in my husband! However, this kind of life is only interesting if the husband and wife work together! Don't make a vase! ”
Jiang Zhixuan was a little emotional, "Okay, Xiaoxiao, let's be husband and wife, and the days will definitely get better and better!" Xiao Xiao stopped talking, gave him a smile back, and then took him to the two uncles who were having a good discussion, and said:
"Uncle, second uncle, your two kindnesses, nephew and Zhixuan are grateful. But just now my nephew and daughter-in-law discussed with Zhixuan, and this house will not be repaired first. In the spring season, you all have so much farm work to do! ”
Jiang Erbo waved his hand again and again when he heard this:
"Xiaoxiao, Zhixuan is now Duke Xie Yuan, how can Duke Xie Yuan's house be so shabby? You little couples don't have to worry about farm work, we farmers, some of them have a lot of inexhaustible strength! ”
"It's very much, you don't have to worry about the materials and expenses, a little money, the uncle can still afford it!" Uncle Jiang was also on the side to help.
Xiaoxiao saw that the two uncles were quite stubborn, and couldn't help laughing: "Uncle, second uncle, it's really a waste to repair this house now." I don't dare to hide the two uncles, now that the farm has been established, a buyer has been found in the county. Just wait for the first batch of livestock to be delivered after the autumn, and you can see a considerable profit. In less than three years, my nephew and daughter-in-law will be able to redeem the ancestral house that Zhixuan sold for me, and when the time comes, what will happen to this repaired house? ”
Uncle Jiang and Uncle Jiang didn't expect this stubble, and they didn't know that the small farm had already started. Hearing this, they looked at each other for a moment, and they didn't know what to say. Seeing this, Jiang Zhixuan also got up and said:
"Uncle, second uncle, your love for Xuan'er, Xuan'er knows it in her heart. But now there are two people in the house, no matter how big and good the house is, it is a waste to be empty. In the next three years, Xuan'er only needs to work at home with peace of mind to prepare for the spring festival, and it is enough to have a study! ”
Seeing that both husband and wife were resolutely opposed, the two uncles felt regretful, but they no longer insisted, and instead asked about the small farm development plan. As soon as they said this, the two brothers Jiang Yun and Jiang Feng were also interested. Because they took care of the farm for Xiaoxiao some time ago, they know more about the farm! It is because they know more that they are more aware of the attractive profits that can be generated once the farm is prosperous!
Speaking of this in front of the two uncles, Xiaoxiao did not shy away from it, because she wanted the two uncles to participate in it. After all, there are many things that are inconvenient for one of her daughters to do, and her husband, as Xie Yuangong, is even more unlikely to do these things, so she has to count on the two uncles to help!
At that moment, she told the detailed plan, and even Jiang Zhixuan was slowly fascinated by the prospects she sketched.
This year is the first year, limited by the lack of funds and experience, a small-scale attempt was made first, but even if it was just an attempt, such a scale was enough to shock the uncles of the Jiang family:
The ownerless vacant land behind the Jiang family is about 200 acres. Now, about a mile away from the Jiang family's house, a row of fences about 100 meters long has been built. The 600 chicks put in the early stage have gradually grown into chicks after more than a month of breeding. The small plan is to build two more such pens within this year, with the goal of stocking 2,000 chickens.
To the east of the chicken coop is a row of sturdier pig houses made of wood and stone. There are 40 pens in total, and each pen can accommodate eight piglets or four adult piglets. However, most of these pens are not needed this year, because this year's plan is to raise about 100 pigs.
The west and north faces are now empty, but the small plan is after the first livestock are slaughtered at the end of the year. A wall will be built on the north side, and some workers' houses will be built on the west side! There are about 1340 acres of vacant land left in the middle, of which more than 30 acres have been dug into a pond about two meters deep, which is slowly accumulating, and when the water is full, it is planned to stock 30,000 fish fry first. It is also necessary to wait until the first batch of livestock is slaughtered after the autumn, and after having funds, continue to expand!
In other words, in the first year, the main products of the farm were chickens, pigs, and fish. By the second year, the yield of these three products will not only increase by more than three times, but will also increase the number of ducks, geese and other species, and they will start cultivating their own seeds.
By the third year, production had more than tripled. At the same time, it began to develop outward, and the products were not only livestock, but also began to use the advantages of the farm itself to produce food. On the one hand, it is for the farm, and on the other hand, it is for sale!
Finally, Xiao Xiao concluded: "For the whole farm, the initial investment in the first year is five hundred taels of silver. It is estimated that after the first batch of products are sold in the autumn, more than 1,000 taels of silver will be obtained, and after deducting the investment in the early stage and the expenses in the middle, there will be a balance of nearly 500 taels of silver as the later investment. ”
"Xiaoxiao, you mean that in the first year, you can have a balance of five hundred taels of silver?" Uncle Jiang asked in disbelief, his question represented everyone's voices, including Jiang Zhixuan's!
"Yes, you can also say that it is a profit of five hundred taels of silver, but this silver will be used for a second investment to expand the scale of the farm! By the second or third year, this profit will increase by several times or even dozens of times! Xiao Xiao nodded in the affirmative!
"My obedient, if it goes on like this, it won't take a few years, brother and sister, your family, I'm afraid it will be richer than Wu Yuanwai's family!" Jiang Yun said stupidly. Wu Yuanwai is a well-known rich gentry in Huayin County and even the entire Jingzhao Mansion, and he is really full of money! However, most of his thousands of family fortunes are obtained by *......
"Yes, Brother Xuan, what kind of official are you, you can't count the silver at home all day!" , Jiang Feng was also shocked, but as soon as his words fell, he was appreciated by Jiang Erbo:
"Something that has no interest, being an official is a glorious lintel, what does it have to do with the amount of silver?"
Jiang Feng pursed his lips aggrievedly, and quietly squatted in the corner to wipe his tears......
