Chapter 216: Impressive
The village chief thought for a while, suppressed the wild beat in his heart, and said, "Master Liu, since we believe in you, these things will be arranged by you." But there's one thing I'm going to talk about. ”
"Okay, village chief, you say." Liu Zhiheng nodded, guessing that it was a matter of price.
Sure enough, the village chief said, "Regarding the price of cold melon and muskmelon, although we have been planting for more than half a year, we have suffered a lot, but we don't want to sell it too expensive." In other words, we are willing to sell you these cold melons and muskmelons at a reasonable price. As for what price you will sell after you take it away, even if a cold melon is sold for an ingot of gold, we will not be blushing. ”
This is too unexpected for Liu Zhiheng, everyone hopes to get rich overnight and ascend to the sky in one step.
But how did the man who broke the golden beach push out the gold in his hand?
"This ...... Village chief, scarcity is expensive, and it is very easy for these cold melons and muskmelons to sell at sky-high prices. You have lost a lot of money by pushing it out like this. ”
The village chief shook his head with a smile, "Others don't know, we know it ourselves." We're just a bunch of mud-legged people who got lucky enough to get here and survive. got the hot spring valley, and was already jealous of people, which caused Mr. Wen and Hou Ye no less trouble.
"Now that this cold melon and muskmelon are selling at sky-high prices, I'm afraid that the trouble will continue again. Master Hou is fighting outside, and Mr. Wen has just entered the court, so we don't want to bother them anymore. Silver is easy to use, but you must have a life and a peaceful life to spend it well. ”
Li Lao Er also agreed, "Young children hold gold in their hands and walk in the downtown area." Most of them can't keep the gold, and even endanger their lives. We are ordinary people, who only want a stable and prosperous life, and do not want to be treated as tempting fat by everyone, ready to take a bite at any time. ”
Previously, he sent cold melons to the Liu family, and the village chief discussed it with Li Laoer, Liu Laosi, Liu Laosi and other captains.
Silver is a good thing, but the village has no ability to protect itself for the time being, and most of them rely on Hou Ye and Mr. Wen and Mrs. Cui.
If you are too greedy, you will end up causing disasters and harming others and yourself.
It's better to only take what they deserve, and feel more at ease.
The village chief said again, "Therefore, the cold melons and muskmelons in our field, except for the ones that were paid tribute to the palace, and the rest of them, let's simply set a price, and hand over half of them to Master Liu to sell, even if we sell a mountain of gold and silver, we will only take our own share." The other half is to be left in the field for food to be eaten on the other side of the valley, and to add to the liveliness. ”
Liu Zhiheng didn't speak for a long time, and his heart was very complicated.
At first, he just thought that the people of Broken Golden Beach were simple and kind-hearted, and the righteous sister lived here, at most they would make up for some food and use, and they should simply find a place to relax, safe and assured.
Now I know that he is still shallow. These people may not have read much, but they are rarely sober and sensible.
Taking only what you deserve, not being greedy or arrogant, this is easy to say, but it is the hardest thing to do.
He stood up and solemnly saluted the village chief, Li Lao Er and others, "Liu has been taught today, thank you!" ”
The village chief and the others hurriedly helped him and said with a smile, "We are just cowardly and dare not cause trouble, how can we understand any big truths, and we can't talk about any teachings." ”
Li Lao Er also said, "In addition, if this cold melon and muskmelon are sold, I am afraid that many people will try to plant them next year, and our village does not plan to hide it. If Master Liu's house has a river beach, it would be good to plant a few acres. ”
Liu Zhiheng thought about it, then nodded, "This cold melon and muskmelon are sold, the seeds really can't be controlled, everyone wants to try it, it's really easy for you to make enemies if you don't teach." Well, my family also planted a few acres, and when the time comes, I will have to bother the village to send someone to come over occasionally to guide a few words. ”
"Yes, it's a trifle." The village chief agreed to come down as soon as he pleased.
Even if the matter is settled at this point, Jia Yin is happy from the beginning to the end.
She was originally worried that the people in the village were stunned by the sudden wealth, but she didn't expect the village chief and the second uncle to be as sober as ever.
This is like a big cake, everyone wants to take a bite, rather than holding it in its arms and being coveted by various calculations, it is better to take the initiative to share it.
In this way, you can leave a relatively large piece and take it safely.
Naturally, everyone is distressed about the part that is divided, but in the final analysis, Broken Gold Beach is still too weak, and stability and development are the first.
That night, Liu Zhiheng stayed at Li's house, and it happened that the third room moved to Luo'an, and the room was empty, so it was convenient to live.
Early the next morning, Mr. Wen rushed over.
He discussed with Liu Zhiheng and decided to offer 50 cold melons and 100 melons.
That's not a lot, but it's not a lot.
The village stepped up and went to Dahuashu Village to buy a lot of small baskets and came back, a small basket containing a cold melon, or ten melons, it looked neat and exquisite.
When picking melons, the village chief specially carried good news to the melon field.
Although he followed the study yesterday, he was still afraid of picking up such a precious thing.
Jiayin ran around the fields, and wherever the little finger went, the village chief would take someone to pick it.
Liu Zhiheng was surprised to see it, so he asked Mrs. Cui, "This little girl of the Li family is only two years old, right?" Isn't it a little too ......?"
Mrs. Cui didn't feel strange when she watched Jiayin grow up, so she smiled and said, "Fu Niu is smarter than ordinary children, and she is naturally greedy, so she is superior to ordinary people in this regard." Yesterday, she also snatched the first melon from the vole's mouth, which was not only ripe, but also very sweet. ”
Liu Zhiheng was amazed, is this place really a feng shui treasure, how is it unusual everywhere.
Open up the barren mountains and carve out hot springs. The worst river flats are planted with cold melons and muskmelons.
Even the little doll raised is so smart......
Soon, the cold melon and the muskmelon were picked.
Some villagers wanted to wash the soil on the cold melon and muskmelon, but Liu Zhiheng stopped, "Don't wash it, it's not good to store it after washing, it looks fresh this way." Just put the clean ones on top and stuff some seedlings in the basket. ”
Everyone nodded again and again, and finally sent the cold melon and muskmelon to the carriage.
The village chief and Li Lao Er changed into clean clothes, with three points of apprehension and seven points of excitement, and followed Liu Zhiheng and Mr. Wen into the palace to offer melons.
The villagers are worried all day long, and when they are working, they always have to look at the intersection.
And all the old people and children in the village, as long as they have no important work in their hands, they are scattered into the melon fields.
No outsiders were allowed to approach, and when they saw small beasts and voles, they also killed them, and not a single one was left.
At dusk, the carriage finally returned.
The village chief and Li Lao Er were both overjoyed and stupid, and they walked as if they had stepped on cotton.
The villagers surrounded them in the middle and asked, "What the hell is going on, has the emperor eaten our cold melon?" ”
Mr. Wen was afraid that the village chief would not understand, so he smiled and said, "The emperor not only eats, but is also very happy." said that we are good people in Tianwu, we have built a new home, and we have grown such good melons and fruits. The emperor gave the name jasper to the cold melon, and the melon the name golden fruit. ”
Liu Zhiheng then said, "Don't look at the emperor who doesn't reward things, only these two names are heavy treasures." In the future, the Tianwu family will grow cold melons and muskmelons, and your broken gold beach is also the best part. It doesn't have to worry about selling, and it's definitely a high price. ”
The villagers were ecstatic when they heard this, and they all knelt down in the direction of Xindu and shouted long live.
"Long live the emperor! Thank you, Your Majesty! ”
"Jasper melon! Golden Fruit! The emperor really knows how to choose a name. ”
