Chapter 73: Nanzhuang's first dividend
The old man dodged his gaze and did not answer Yang Qiaoyue's question.
The young man at the back of the line suddenly said, "Uncle, you won't go to that cursed land to pull you, will you?" ”
As soon as everyone heard the young man's words, they were frightened and turned away from the black soil.
The old man stiffened his neck and denied: "You are talking nonsense, I didn't." ”
Yang Qiaoyue saw that everyone was afraid to avoid it, and wondered in her heart: "What is the matter with the cursed land you are talking about?" ”
"Miss Yang doesn't know? There is a piece of land outside the west city of Yan County, there is no living thing, and it is black. ”
In order to prove what he said, the young man also asked others for verification.
Everyone is talking nonsense.
"Yes, I heard that like a swamp, people will die if they fall."
"Our Yan County has been plagued by famine for many years, and the land has not been planted with anything, which is caused by this cursed land."
"That piece of local government is sealed and will not allow you to enter or leave, cursed, and if you go in to die, the old man will not take away the soil."
They only heard about it, and they didn't really investigate it.
Seeing this, the old man silently pulled the soil and walked away.
Yang Qiaoyue handed over the collection of dung to Guan Zeng and Guan Qiu, and she and Enen caught up with the old man.
"Grandpa, can you take us to the place where you dug up the soil?"
The old man was stunned, thinking that he had heard it wrong, and stared at Yang Qiaoyue, "You're not afraid of that curse?" Giving birth to black soil is unlucky, the old man can't hurt you, you are a good person. ”
"Don't worry, uncle, I'm not afraid of curses, they're all curses afraid of me. How about you take me, and I'll give you two dollars to buy your soil? ”
The old man was determined not to take her there, but when he heard the silver, he couldn't help but be moved.
It was precisely because his family couldn't live his life that he ventured into the cursed place to dig up black soil to fool people.
After thinking about it again, he nodded, "The old man can take you there, but you can't find me if you have an accident!" ”
"Good!"
"Give the money first."
Yang Qiaoyue took out two coins and gave it to him.
The two followed the old man out of the city, and under the mountain col not far from the city gate, a sign of the official mansion was erected in the forest.
- Do not enter forbidden places
After entering the forest and going down the hillside, it suddenly opened up in front of me, and it was really a dark land.
The view under the col is unobstructed, like the plains.
Yang Qiaoyue's face was pleasantly surprised, and she said that things must be reversed, could it be that under the barren land of Yan County, the black soil that gave birth to the "granary" of the world?
Ignoring the fence, she went in to look.
"Qiqi, be careful." Mu Eun followed closely and looked at a black land that was indeed quite terrifying.
Yang Qiaoyue touched the soft ground, and in order to verify her conjecture, she dug up a large lump and packed it up, ready to go back to the test.
I turned around and wanted to thank the old man, but I don't know when he ran away.
It seems that the people of Yan County do have a deep misunderstanding of this land.
Yang Qiaoyue returned to Nanzhuang and planted a mushroom with these black soils, and when Yang Chengdong and the others saw this color of soil, they immediately remembered the cursed land outside the city.
With a serious face, he asked, "Sister, where did you come from?" ”
"Outside the West City, that cursed land."
Sure enough, Yang Chengdong and Yang Muzhong glanced at each other, and the two of them were nervous and asked her to throw it away, this is a cursed land, even the yamen has been sealed, and the master has been asked to do the law.
Yang Qiaoyue didn't expect the two brothers to believe in this kind of thing, and she didn't know how to explain it.
"Big brother, I'm experimenting to see if it's a cursed soil or a gift from heaven, and you'll know in a few days."
Out of trust in Yang Qiaoyue, they couldn't force her to throw it away, so they could only tell her not to mention it outside.
Yang Qiaoyue looked at the nervous appearance of the two elder brothers and responded with a smile.
You can't blame them for this kind of thing, it's really unlucky, and Yan County is plagued by famine every year, and everyone will spread their grievances on the strange black soil.
A few days have passed, and in a blink of an eye, it has reached the thirtieth of the Chinese New Year's Eve.
Yan County this year because of Nanzhuang and the world's agricultural and vegetable shops, many families can have a stable year.
Yang Qiaoyue also went to Nanzhuang on this day to see the mushrooms she tried to grow in the "cursed soil".
As soon as they arrived in Nanzhuang, Guan Zeng and they ran over excitedly, "Big girl! Your mushroom is growing so well that it's as good as two in the ground. ”
Yang Qiaoyue was not surprised, and went over to check.
The mushrooms in the wasteland had not yet emerged a few days earlier, and many mushrooms had already sprouted from those planted with the "cursed soil".
The time is short, the growth is vigorous, and the amount of mushrooms is twice that of the wasteland.
Needless to say, it is not a cursed land, but the most fertile black land known as the "granary of the world".
Yang Qiaoyue was verified and told them not to make a show, and to make plans after the year, so that they could have a good New Year in Nanzhuang.
Today is also the last day of the lunar calendar, so I have to sum up the accounts.
Guan Qiu had already done what she had ordered.
This year, the sales team in Nanzhuang earned a small 100 taels twice, and the income of the Tianxia agricultural vegetable shop from its opening to yesterday was 150 taels.
In addition, there are more than 50 taels of surplus in hand, and now there are more than 300 taels of living money.
Yang Qiaoyue called the shopkeeper and his men from Nanzhuang and the world's agricultural and vegetable shops to Nanzhuang.
took out a few taels of silver and distributed them to Zhuangzi's people for the New Year, and sent money to the shopkeeper Wu for the New Year, with a commission of one or two five, and a penny for half a month.
They had never received so much money at one time, and they had never even seen so much money, and they were very grateful.
"Okay, everyone have a good New Year, and you will have to be busy in the coming year."
"Yes Miss!"
The account surplus is three hundred taels, Yang Qiaoyue takes out one hundred taels of dividends, Mu Enen is ten taels, Yang Muzhong is ten taels, Lu Shi is thirty taels, and she herself is sixty taels, with a clear distinction between public and private.
When Mu Enen and Yang Chengdong got this money, they didn't want to take it, which was more than they had invested.
Yang Qiaoyue forced them to accept it, and preached, anytime money on them is better than anything else, and the two had to accept it.
That night, the Yang family's Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, the Liu family was grounded in the West Courtyard, and Yang Jia did not let her out.
No one helped her intercede, the Liu family, as an in-law, didn't help, and let Lou Zhixian go behind his back, and someone else had already taken the Liu family off, but the grounding was also benevolent.
Yang Qiaoyue and Lu Shi came to the dining room.
Since the last family banquet was scolded by Yang Qiaoyue, everyone has become a little scared of her.
The family is still keeping filial piety for Mrs. Lou, there is no big popularity, and there are only vegetarian dishes on the table.
During the dinner, Yang Qiaoyue took the initiative to mention that everyone was thinking about the family's business.
"In the new year, I plan to do a business in each room of the house, and the remaining silver money and silk gold in the family are a total of 200 taels, depending on how much each room is out of, and how much is accounted for."
Yang Qiaoyue's words made the dining room suddenly quiet, and out of trust in his daughter, the Lu family was the first to say that the four rooms would be one hundred taels.
Zhou's second room doesn't have much money, and he plans to pay fifty taels.
Dafang Zhao hesitated and asked, "Yue'er, what business are you going to do?" ”
"Just when the eldest aunt asked, I was going to tell you."
Yang Qiaoyue only talked about it as a business, and didn't care about Zhao's distrust.
"After the year, it is the season of spring planting, and I will buy the land outside Xicheng and grow grain ......."
"How can there be a land ...... outside the West City." Zhao muttered.
Immediately, the others at the table were shocked, "Yue'er, you mean that cursed black land?" ”
