It was not easy for Liu Wan to see them, if she drove them away, then they would become landless peasants, and they would not be able to rent land if they had to find someone to rent land for a while.

Seeing Liu Wan, these people were quite anxious and nervous, and they kept saying good things to Liu Wan.

Liu Wan saw that these five households were honest farmers, so she agreed to continue to rent them, and the rent was the same as before, three seven points, Liu Wanqi and three tenant farmers.

That is to say, the annual yield of one mu of land is one to three stones, according to the calculation of good land, it is estimated that the output can have three stones, if three seven open, you have to pay Liu Wan two stone millet rent.

What a bitter farmer is now!

Liu Wan followed Master Hu's carriage and walked along her own field, and saw that there was a small river passing through it, and the water conservancy was also very convenient.

It seems that the emperor's holy decree is still quite useful, and the emperor rewards it, and the government does not dare to fool it.

Liu Wan and the five tenant farmers rewrote the deed to renew the rent, agreed on a time to collect the rent, and left with Wang Xiao.

Master Hu's carriage sent them to the outside of the county yamen, and when Liu Wanlin got off the car, she took a piece of silver and stuffed it into Master Hu's hand.

Master Hu felt that Liu Wan was still quite good, and the hard work of one or two silver was also a lot, so he accepted it calmly.

Wang Xiao saw this scene from beginning to end, after this period of experience, Wang Xiao has also understood the sophistication of human feelings, and there is not much surprise.

Liu Wan and Wang Xiao returned home, and Liu Wan said that she would rent a good store and let Wang Jing decorate it in the future.

When Wang Jing heard that he was going to open a new store, he said yes.

"Your abacus is also good, just bring it to the delivery, and the shopkeeper has urged me a few times."

Liu Wan said.

Liu Wan knew that during this time, the shopkeeper Guan had begun to teach the common sense of abacus to his bookkeeper.

Liu Wan went to look for him several times, but the shopkeeper Guan stopped talking with a look on his face, and Liu Wan knew that the shopkeeper Guan should be trying to urge her to make an abacus.

It's just that the work of this abacus is really not easy to do, just look at the handiwork of the abacus is clear, each bead has to be polished and shaped, and there are so many exquisite designs, it is not easy to be a skilled craftsman.

It is normal for today's people to have an inexplicable sense of reverence for craftsmen, and it is easy not to urge them to hurry up and complete the manual work, and it is impossible to say such things.

Because they believe that if the master carpenter is displeased, the master carpenter will curse the utensils he has made, and such curses will have all kinds of bad effects on the user, and even extend to all aspects of physical health.

Liu Wanyuan didn't know these doorways, but when she heard people mention Wang Carpenter, she had a sense of jealousy on her face.

It is no wonder that although Carpenter Wang has a bad character and exploits child labor, many people dare not speak out.

After all, curses are everywhere, what if you annoy Carpenter Wang and put a curse on you?

Liu Wan heard that there were curses in the village in the past, such as who found a small man with a big palm in the grass pile behind his house, with a needle in his chest;

Others found paper cuts under the bed of humanoid rune paper and so on.

Whoever picks up these things, the owner will be seriously ill, or even die, can you not be afraid?

Liu Wan felt that this should be a way for ancient craftsmen to protect themselves, and the more mysterious and strange these things were, the better, so that other families would not dare to easily dislike their craftsmanship, dare not deduct wages, and respect their attitude.

Anyway, she knew that Wang Jing wouldn't be able to curse.

Liu Wan didn't see Wang Lian at home, so she asked Wu Hui where Wang Lian went?

Wu Hui said that Wang Lian went to feed the cows.

When Liu Wan went to the cowshed, she saw that Wang Lian was taking a handful of tender grass, handed it to the cow and said:

"Dahua, you eat, I'll feed you a little, after the fourth brother goes to school, I will feed you alone, and he won't come to secretly add food to you, if you don't eat enough, you will be hungry."

The cow seemed to understand what Wang Lian was saying, and "moo" twice, and stretched out his tongue to lick her hand.

Wang Lian chuckled, it seemed that after the last separation, Wang Lian had been able to accept the fact that Wang Li was going to study.

Liu Wan saw her sensible appearance, but felt very sorry for this child.

For a child to grow up, in fact, it is only a matter of an instant, one or two things.

"Mercy!" Liu Wan shouted.

"Mother, are you back? Did the fourth brother go to school today? ”

Since knowing that Wang Li was bullied by the rich son last time, Wang Lian felt that the road to school was really dangerous.

No one in the village dared to bully them, who would dare to bully their twins?

The two of them are one, and they rush together if it's a big deal.

"It's all good this time, with Wang Yi'an and Tian Zhifu here, there shouldn't be any problem in taking care of him.

Besides, Wu Jing is also in the town, and your second brother is also in the town, so you can just find them directly if you have anything. ”

Now that they have two sons in the town together, the brothers can take care of each other, and Liu Wan is much more relieved.

"Mother, the bamboo shoots are almost over, let's go dig up another bamboo shoot, shall we?"

Liu Wan didn't expect Wang Lian to want to go up the mountain to dig bamboo shoots, so she said:

"Okay, let's go farther this afternoon, Aunt Zhao said that there is a long spring bamboo shoot on the mountain near konjac." Liu Wan said.

So, the mother and daughter carried the bamboo basket on their backs and marched to the mountains together.

Seeing the dead horses running in the mountains, the two of them walked for an hour before they arrived at the konjac field that Zhao said.

The konjac ground is quite soft, and it is not difficult to dig it, and there is a dilapidated house with a collapsed wall on the side.

Liu Wan took a closer look, the door was open, the door panel and window frame should have been removed, and the window and door were open, like a big mouth of a black hole, about to devour people.

From the outside and from the inside, there was no furniture in the house, nothing but three walls.

Liu Wan checked the surrounding environment, although the house is dilapidated, the owner is quite good at choosing a place, behind is a small mountain col, about 20 meters to the side, there is a mountain spring water pouring down, living here, taking water is not a problem.

In front of the house is a flat land, which can be seen to be a vegetable field, and there are 5 or 6 acres of flat land in front of it, which is a field for planting konjac.

If it's not inconvenient to travel, it's a good place to escape from the world.

Liu Wan thought to herself, can she build a new house here in the future, in case the outside is not peaceful and the wind is blowing, the family can temporarily avoid here.

Taoyuan Village itself is already a deserted village, and if you go into the mountains, you have to walk such a long way, even bandits and robbers will not come in, and people outside don't know the way, let alone find it.

Liu Wan secretly wrote down her plans, then took out the small hoe she brought from the bamboo basket and began to dig up the konjac.

The roots of konjac are not deep, Liu Wan's strength is not what it used to be, and she dug hard, and soon dug up hundreds of catties of konjac.

She picked two or three konjacs and put them in the bamboo basket, and threw the rest into the food locker.
