Chapter 473: Robbery while the fire is on

The imperial court continued to recruit workers in various parts of the Ming Dynasty, and at the beginning it was still a cash-for-work, saying that the people during the slack period could also obtain a certain income by working outside.

to make up for the losses suffered by natural disasters in previous years.

At first, Liu San didn't take it seriously when he heard about it, after all, in his opinion, as long as it didn't affect the harvest of the crops in the field, then it was not his responsibility for these tenants to go to work.

But when these tenants come back from working in Denglai.

The whole Zhuangzi was like a fried pot in an instant, and when they went, those tenants still looked poor, but it was only more than three months later.

It's like a shotgun has changed.

Not only large bags and small bags have brought some rare things from the outside that you can't see on weekdays.

What's more, when these tenants returned, they began to publicize what they had seen and heard when they built a shipyard for the imperial court in Denglai, and made an agreement with many people in the village.

By next spring, everyone will be able to go to Denlai.

They became the hottest people in Zhuangzi, and all of them wanted to go to Denglai next year through their introduction...

At least three dragon yuan a month, and the meat is in charge of it.

Liu San, who heard the news, was almost shaken, I'm afraid that I, a small landlord, wouldn't dare to eat meat on weekdays, these tenants could live such a good life just by going out to work?

Liu San was confused.

The confusion is much more than that.

As the number of tenants who went out to do their jobs increased, some yeoman farmers, that is, those who owned their own land, also began to find Liu San.

"Master Liu.. The two acres of water in my house... I want to make a move, you don't know... When this child grows up, it will be expensive, especially in the new school. ”

Liu San is even more confused, a new-style school?

His own children are still specially invited to come to the door, but this is in Shandong? If you don't read those sage books and read those real Confucian studies, isn't it a bad brain to engage in a new type of school?

Especially when I heard that because my children went to a new school, these farmers had to sell their most valuable land to themselves one by one.

Liu San felt that his decision was extremely correct, the new-style school was just a short-lived product, and only this sage and knowledge could stand tall and eat for a lifetime!

Liu San, who was pretentious, couldn't help but speak: "Then how much silver do you want to sell, I can tell you in advance.. Now there are a lot of immigrants, and the price of land is cheaper than before..."

"Sir.. Clearly, we know in our hearts, my family is full of good paddy fields, and they are connected to the land of your family. ”

"When this difficulty is over, our family will be a tenant of your family!"

When Liu San heard this, the corners of his mouth changed slightly. He thought so in his heart, it didn't take much silver to coax this field into his hands.

But next year, won't they still have to farm?

When the time comes, won't those lands become hens that lay golden eggs?

A steady stream of income for the Liu family.

"Those two acres of paddy fields are okay, so let's... Since you're going to sell, there's no way I'm going to cheat you after so many years of friendship.."

"Ten dragon dollars... I took it! ”

Ten pieces!

Hearing Liu San's words, the man couldn't help but roll his eyes.

If in previous years, these two acres of good paddy fields were less than thirty yuan, Long Yuan probably wouldn't have paid attention to Liu Sanyan, but after thinking about it, his family would have to go out to work in the future, and he wouldn't have time to come back to farm...

Simply, he gritted his teeth and nodded, "Then thank you, Master Liu... This is the title deed.."

"Okay.... Come on, that pen and ink, make a note! ”

In the following period, a large number of peasant households in Zhuangzi began to sell their land to Liu San.

The largest landlord squire in this Zhuangzi.

Liu San also did not refuse to come, and saw that the situation did not seem quite right. The price of land acquisition has also been lowered, and in just a few days, hundreds of acres of fine fertile land have been collected.

Even Liu San felt a little incredulous.

Before going to bed at night, Liu San couldn't help but say to the concubine on the side: "This day... We Liu San never thought about it, so many good paddy fields! ”

"When has the ancestor of the Liu family never had such a brilliant family business!"

Liu San, who thought that he had brought the Liu family to a new height, was more powerful in Zhuangzi all day long, but when he heard those people talking about going out to work, he still couldn't help but say some cool words coldly.

"In this world, it is best to stay in Zhuangzi... Get out? I don't know how you died, but if you meet any bandits, your family will die! ”

Intimidation has a certain effect, and many people can't help but retreat a little when they hear Liu San's words, but at this time, someone always stands up and angrily reprimands Liu San.

"Master Liu, it's not authentic for you to talk like this!"

"We didn't stop you from making money, and you shouldn't stop us from going out to live a good life!"

"That's it!"

In the final analysis, Liu San is just a landlord, and there is no way to hear what these people say, so he has to answer.

"That's what I said, don't go to your heart!"

"You guys.."

...

After Liu San left, someone spat on his back, and scolded angrily in a low voice: "Laughing.. Let this Master Liu laugh for a few more days, and I'll see if he can laugh at the beginning of spring next year! ”

"Lao Zhang. Are you sure you're right... Did the imperial court really want to start collecting the tax on abandonment? ”

"Is this still fake? I saw on Shandong Daily that the imperial court was soliciting opinions, but in this first batch, only we in Shandong have this rule in the north! ”

"Because relatively speaking, the disaster in Shandong is not serious..."

After saying that, these farmers who seem to have been honest all their lives couldn't help laughing, and now who doesn't know that as long as they have a lot of strength, they can go out to work.

The money you make on the construction site is something you can't earn in eight lifetimes.

If people are clever.

If you can be appreciated by any of the staff on the construction site, you will be able to go to the technical school in Fucheng to study.

After it comes out in the future, it will be a third-level technical talent.

Even if you don't come out to do things, just joining the factory of the imperial court can be regarded as serving the rice bowl of the Ming court.

This is a great temptation and shock for everyone.
