At this time, Liu Paner took out charcoal and a wooden board, "Uncle Village." In this way, let those who have silver take out the silver, many people are reluctant, this is human nature.

In this way, the wasteland opened up this year, the grain grown, first return the seed money, and then divide the remaining grain equally. As for the agricultural implements, the people who pay for them have ownership of these farmers.

If you don't pay for it, if you want to use farm tools in the future, then use a rented one. In this case, it is fair to the people who pay for it. Others who don't pay for it naturally can't take advantage of the extra advantage. ”

When the people heard this, look at me, and I will look at you.

Village Chief Li was also quite annoyed, he wanted to lead the villagers to settle down, but the villagers were careful.

On the contrary, Liu Paner understands this, who doesn't have selfishness?

Besides, people are selfish, and it's good to take advantage of others; But if you are taken advantage of by others, you will not be happy.

Sympathy is sympathy, but it cannot be conflated.

Village Chief Li immediately took out three taels of silver, "Yuanqing's family, you write it down for me and use it to buy seeds and farm tools." ”

Liu Paner wrote on the wooden board with charcoal: "Village chief, three taels of silver." Liu Paner, three taels of silver. Hurry up, everyone, if you have the money, take it out quickly, anyway, you can return the grain after harvesting it.

Everyone worked together to open up the wasteland and grow food, and Lord Qin Cha Gu let us settle down here, which is our Lijia Village. If we can't settle down, we will have to go back to the poor and remote place of Yuyang Mansion. ”

Since the village chief said so, everyone thought for a while and came over to hand over the silver. Of course, you are not stupid and will not take out all the money.

Some take out half of it, some take out a third.

Liu Pan'er recorded them one by one, and after collecting a total of twenty-four taels of silver, no one was willing to pay any more.

Liu Paner handed the silver to Village Chief Li, "Village Chief, I have written down the people who paid for it." Take someone to buy seeds today. ”

Village Chief Li was nervous, and even a little scared, thinking that Liu Pan'er could handle it easily when he saw Qin Cha, "Yuanqing's family, I drove my family's ox cart to take the mountain that is the best at farming in the village, you take your family's big treasure, let's go to the county seat to buy seeds together." You can settle accounts, you can read, and you are bold, you can speak better than I can. ”

Liu Pan'er was still thinking about changing the seeds halfway, so she nodded, "Okay, then I'll go with you, the distance is too far, we have to hurry, we have to stay in the county seat for one night at night, let's buy all the things we need to buy." ”

Village Chief Li handed over the building of the house to Li Dageng, and handed over the matter of clearing the wasteland to his eldest sons Li Yuanjia and Li Dazhuang.

Before Liu Paner left, she explained to Liu, "Sister-in-law, I took Dabao and went to the county seat with the village chief to buy seeds. The three children in the family, you help me watch at night. ”

Liu nodded, "Don't worry, Ah Fang and Ali Ah Rong can take care of the child, don't worry." ”

When leaving, Liu Paner also asked Ah Rong to take care of her younger brothers and sisters, and also said that when she came back from the county seat, she would buy her a head rope.

It was very hot along the way, and Liu Paner passed by a lotus field, picked a few lotus leaves, and put them on her and Li Dabao's heads.

The road was deserted and there were even some weeds on the road, but because they passed yesterday, they stepped out of a path.

Fortunately, there were no bandits and robbers along the way, although it was hot and tired, Liu Paner could withstand it.

Very lucky, before closing the city gate, I arrived at the county seat, which was called Cuiyang County.

I found an inn, only one room, the cheapest house, twenty dollars a night.

Village Chief Li said to Liu Pan'er: "Yuanqing's family, you take Dabao to the house, bring the silver with you, take care of it." Dashan and I rested on the ox cart in the backyard, watching our cattle so that they would not be stolen. ”

If you don't know the place, it's always right to be careful.

Liu Pan'er nodded, "Then it's hard village chief, today I inquired with the shopkeeper about the two seed stores and prices, and the local credit is better." The ironware shop is on the other side of the county, so let's go our separate ways. You go and buy ironware, and Xiaobao and I go and buy good seeds. ”

Village Chief Li looked worried, "The seeds are related to this season's harvest, Yuanqing's family, can you see that it is bad?" ”

Liu Pan'er smiled and hurriedly promised, "Uncle Village, Yuan Qing is not at home, and the land at home is all planted by me." Have you ever seen my crops grow badly? Less food? ”

Li Dashan gave Liu Pan'er a thumbs up, "Village Chief, the Yuanqing family's farming is good, I will go to see the fields in our village every day, and they are better than those experienced old farmers." ”

Li Dabao also hurriedly agreed, "My mother is amazing." ”

After thinking for a moment, Village Chief Li nodded, "Okay, you go buy grain seeds, and buy as much as you can." ”

Liu Pan'er nodded, "Okay, the grain is two cents a pound more expensive than ordinary grain, all of which are selected, the particles are full, eight cents a catty, and an acre of land needs seven or eight catties of grain." A thousand catties of good seed will cost eight taels of silver. ”

"Then buy a thousand pounds." Village Chief Li replied, "Dashan, I saw that you had a very happy chat with a black-faced old man just now, what did you say?" ”

Li Dashan replied: "That old man looks like he is a farmer, and he is still local, so I praise him for being an old man who grows crops." Although I can't fully understand what he said, and he may not be able to understand what I said, I can understand the general meaning by analogy. In addition, I used to work for farmers in the south and knew how to grow rice. ”

"The mountains are powerful, and our rice planting today depends on you." Village Chief Li praised him, and when he saw that it was getting late, he went back to his room to rest.

The next day, just after dawn, they began to get up, eat, and go their separate ways.

Liu Paner didn't rush forward to buy seeds, carefully observed the two houses, and saw that there were many people queuing in one house, so she took Li Dabao over to line up.

Li Dabao looked at another grain store not far away and asked in a low voice: "Mother, obviously there are few people there, and we can buy seeds soon, why do we have to line up here?" ”

Liu Paner lowered her voice and explained in Li Dabao's ear in a low voice, "We are not familiar with each other, and we don't know the details of these two shops, but the locals know the quality of the two shops. There are many people who buy it, and there is nothing wrong with it. ”

Li Dabao suddenly realized and understood.

A woman in front of her who was buying grain seeds vaguely understood the conversation between Liu Paner and Li Dabao, and also leaned over and lowered her voice and said: "The boss of that house has changed, there are deflated shells in it, my man bought some at his house, and after soaking the seeds, a lot of empty shells floated up." I don't have enough seeds at home, so I have to buy them. ”

Liu Paner understood and thanked: "Thank you, sister-in-law." ”

"From out of town?" The woman looked at Liu Paner's yellow face and thin muscles, but her clothes were not bad, there were no patches, and she couldn't tell that she was a homeless person fleeing the famine.
