"Huai'an, look, this is the grain I have harvested this year!"

On the elevated stone platform, the loose board is paved on the ground, and bags of grain are re-weighed and packed into sealed bags, stacked on both sides.

Only a few people were guarding the barn outside.

But I don't want to have a lot of things inside, in addition to the people who work, there are also several teams of border guards who patrol around, staring at the people who work and the grain.

Seeing the big man coming, these linemen seemed to be unable to see it, and they didn't care at all what they should do.

It was Yan Lao Er, who was cut several times by their sharp gaze......

"This is a strong general under General Xue Qi, haha, it's not that the official has a big face, and he can't borrow it!" Master Tian is quite complacent.

Yan Lao Er didn't see it that way.

He followed Liang Manshan to the countryside to collect grain, and he didn't just think about how to buy grain and transport grain every day, but occasionally talked about the mountains.

As far as he knew, the grain in several border city barns could also be regarded as reserve warehouses for the border army.

In the event of a war when food is scarce, the border army will transfer grain from the barn of the official office.

Therefore, this has nothing to do with the face of the eldest master, it is purely the importance of food, and there is no room for loss.

"Guess how much food is here?" Master Tian was smiling, it seemed that he had been in a good mood since he entered the barn, and the smile on his face never stopped.

Yan Lao Er counted from top to bottom, and then from right to left, the two sides are very symmetrical, then multiply by two, a bag of rice should be a standard 100 catties, so ......

He quickly came up with a number.

Mr. Tianda: ......

Yan Lao Er humbly asked, "Did I guess right?" ”

If it weren't for the wrong occasion in front of him, the barmen behind him wanted to beat him, and shouted excitedly and novelly: Brother, you can do it! Tell me, how did you guess it!

The catty number reported by Yan Lao Er was exactly the amount of grain they had prepared and were ready to send to Fucheng.

That's what is actually bagged.

Master Tian would not be deceived by him, and said with a smile: "It seems that Huai'an has not thrown away a subject of arithmetic." ”

A little joke.

Master Tian began to get down to business: "At this time of year, the official is both happy and worried.

I am happy that my people have reaped the rewards of a year's hard work, but I am worried that we also need to send grain to Fucheng, which is almost the same as the taxes paid by farmers in the center of the country......"

Yan Lao Erfu was very happy: "Could it be that there are people in Fucheng who check and weigh?" ”

Master Tian looked at him approvingly, nodded and said, "Yes, it is generally the same, and even surpasses." ”

Yan Laoer: ......

I see, it's an onion, peeled layer by layer.

The servants went to the countryside to collect grain, carrying scales and buckets.

When you meet someone who will come to something, you will answer them correctly, and you will go on the scale.

If the quality of the grain is not good, and they find fault with it, or if their mood is not good, they will use buckets.

Yan Lao Er has seen it twice, Wan Tou of the soap class deliberately changed his shoes, with thick soles, and kicked four feet in a row, and the sharp grain fell visibly with the naked eye, and a circle of grain was sprinkled around.

Every time he kicked it, the faces of the people in the village turned ugly, and they finally cried.

His daughter looked at it and couldn't bear it, picked up the fallen grain one by one, blew it clean and put it away, and secretly sent it back to the family.

That is, relying on the sweetness of their mouths and their young age, those people in Wantou gave them a thin piece of noodles to the Yan family.

I heard the old man in the village say that in previous years, when he came to collect grain quickly, he would only have three feet at most, and that was to do this, and three kicks were worse than these four feet.

The old man cried and muttered over and over again: I didn't have these shoes last year, I didn't have these shoes last year......

He learned again, and it turned out that there was also a special thing about this shoe.

I want to come and go to the soap class business is unfamiliar, but this year I have grown.

It's really a line of work, a line of drilling!

Unfortunately, this is not a good thing for the farmer.

Unexpectedly, now the eldest lord said to him that these doorways used on others would fall on them again.

Yan Lao Er really didn't know how to feel for a while.

It's so complicated!

"Is the city of Nafu still going to the capital? Tested or not? Yan Lao Er asked quickly.

Master Tian smiled and said: "Huai'an has forgotten, Guanzhou is the fiefdom of the British king, and I will wait for the grain tax to be sent to the capital city." ”

Yes, Fucheng is their sky, to the top.

"In previous years, each city had to be the first to arrive, and the one who arrived first had the least expense." Master Tian said slowly: "Gu Feng is still unwilling to fall behind in such a situation, so that's why. ”

"This year, I went to Fucheng to deliver grain, but the official is not in a hurry to compete with them." Master Tian sold a pass, smiled and asked, "Why do you say?" ”

Yan Lao Er: How do I know......

The expression on his face was too straightforward, and Master Tian smiled even more happily: "It was also inspired by Huai'an that made me think of a good strategy!" ”

Yan Lao Er looked confused.

What did I inspire? Why don't I know?

……

Master Lu's accounts are messy and messy, and they are very difficult to calculate.

But this is not difficult for Yan Yu, it is nothing more than a little more time.

Her father said that Master Lu might leave in advance, so she would prepare first, so she took the time to settle the accounts, saving people from coming to calculate the account, which seemed unprofessional.

After a busy day, Xiao'an Village turned all the bamboo into bamboo crossbows.

Everyone is working hard together, and the speed is really super fast.

The torches in the center of the village were lit, illuminating this piece of light.

The whole village is full of men, women and children, and they all want to come and see the excitement.

Without those vain speeches, the village elders were particularly unpretentious, and when they saw that the target was ready, they shouted directly to start.

Yan Yu is like a general who deploys troops, making decisions in the middle, and deciding who will end up according to different opponents.

There was a discussion within the Boy Scouts that the bamboo crossbows they got would not be attributed to individuals, but would be distributed uniformly.

Yan Yu also revealed early that the task of standing on the arrow tower to watch the vigilance in the future should belong to their boy scouts.

Don't look at the children small, but the momentum is enough.

Take a look at the arrow tower, and imagine yourself standing on a high place and looking down on the whole village, the children are in high spirits!

At the beginning of the competition, the men in the village were still very enthusiastic, and when they lost several games in a row, the big guys slowly calmed down.

Only then did I realize that these children really have some ability.

The scene was getting colder, and Yan Yu released the water at the right time, and finally kept the victory and defeat at five or five.

Several village elders discussed it and decided to send it down according to this ratio.

When this decision reaches everyone's ears.

The children's cheers followed.

The light of fire was imprinted on the faces of each of them, and the black boy was like a star.

Early the next morning, Master Lu came over.

He was also kind-hearted, unwilling to throw away the work he had taken, giving up halfway, and really worried about his family, so he told Yan Yu that he would first withdraw part of his salary and send it home, and then come back to do the work after he finished instructing his family.

Yan Yu gave the silver.

Master Lu borrowed the Qi family's mule cart to take a brother home.

Before leaving, tell her that the five arrow towers in the village will be able to go up to stand on this day.

But at first, there are not too many people, two or three adults, and if it is a child, it can be more, seven or eight.
