There is no one to invite, not only what everyone in the village thinks, but also Old Man Ding's.

Old man Ding, who had been reminded by the boss a long time ago, had already thought of countermeasures.

In fact, as early as the day of the sixteenth stall, he knew from the boss that the government would levy forced labor, but he didn't expect the government to do such a thing this time.

Now, not only can't the fields be planted, but even the houses can't be built!

The countermeasures he had thought of early in the morning were completely useless.

"Let's go and ask someone outside the house, if you can." Ding Xue said crisply: "There are no seedlings yet, the fields are also being tended, and every family is short of manpower." It is unknown when your uncles will return, and we will all need help before they return. ”

It is impossible to find people in the house, only to go outside the house, but to find people outside the house, all kinds of procedures are very cumbersome, and if you want to use people, only the government will come forward.

Old man Ding came back to his senses in a second, and immediately, he turned around and entered the house.

"Master Zhang, I don't know if the house can support the matter of going out of the house to ask for work?"

Zhang Qiang, who had just drunk the sugar water sent in by Sister-in-law Qiao, suddenly showed appreciative eyes.

Putting down the bowl, Zhang Qiang said with a smile: "It is naturally impossible for the government to delay the spring planting event, the crops selected by the government have already arrived in Lu County, and at most the day after tomorrow will be able to arrive in the city. ”

"Is there a limit to the number of people?" Old man Ding couldn't suppress his excitement: "If you don't limit the number of people, go back and wait for you to be free, and want to move the fields over there in Ning County." ”

Zhang Qiang did not immediately respond to Old Man Ding's words, but first glanced at his companion.

"Brother Ding, you can use this person, the price is about the same as what you invited before, but your family may not be able to do it after the stall in front of the city gate, on the twenty-day, there was a commotion in Ning County, and now, Ning County is already digging konjac."

Konjac is equal to water tofu, even those who have not eaten it find incredible, let alone those who have eaten.

The boldness of the Ding family not only made Zhang Qiang admire, but also made him feel incredible.

Of course, the heart in it is also worth admiring.

If it weren't for konjac, a food that could be pushed out temporarily, the matter of levying labor would not have been so tight.

The Ding family wants the poor people to be more relaxed, and it is different from seizing the opportunity to enlist labor as an official, but Zhang Qiang didn't blame Old Man Ding.

"At most, in a few days, it should spread in the city, and when the time comes, your family is afraid that it will be difficult to face!"

"Thanks for the reminder." Old man Ding is worthy of a salute.

Zhang Qiang stood up and helped the person: "You and my brother, there is no need to say this. ”

There were still people in the village waiting outside the door, and the two of them were not free today, and Old Man Ding didn't stay in the house for long, and after a few words with the two, he went out of the middle hall.

When the people in the village knew that the government had brought in labor, they were less anxious, but the Li family and the Wang family were different.

These two families, they are too lazy to do this word, and they can do the first three words.

Serving in conscription, the Ding family didn't go, how could they go.

"Brother-in-law, I don't have a good leg..."

"You want me to use the money to buy you land to buy people for you, I have no objection." Old man Ding said coldly.

Then Uncle Li, who was about to say if he could help me buy a head, suddenly stopped.

He has no hope, and the Wang family is even more impossible, but how can a person live without dreams?

"Brother-in-law, you see, twenty taels is not a problem for you at all, why don't you give it to our family?"

The Wang family, there are four men who are in line with their age, if the old man Ding dares to nod his head, it is definitely not only the question of eighty taels, it is estimated that he will have to pay the poll tax last year and this year.

"Grandma, you praised it, twenty taels is a lot for my family, if it weren't for the children's absence, the family would definitely let the children participate in this time, and it would be good to be able to contribute more to the things of themselves and the people." Old man Ding refused without blushing or panting.

The old lady wanted to try harder, but the villagers all spoke in unison.

——

"Our family has eighteen acres of land, and after the eldest and the children and their father left, there will only be me and the second mother, and before they come back, at least there must be a helper."

——

"I have a lot of land, and I have to be helped by two laborers."

——

"I have one person in my family."

——

"Two of my family."

Obviously, everyone can stop talking like this, but in order to prevent Mrs. Wang from grabbing Old Man Ding and continuing to stir around, they all rushed to make a sound, covering up the voice made by Mrs. Wang.

After a while, the number of days that each family needed manpower, and the number of livestock of the service personnel in the village were counted.

"Are you two sure you want to settle in the village?" The old village chief asked, holding a shelf.

That sharp old eye is satisfied, you don't want to.

"My family is for sure." Uncle Li was forced to show an attitude: "I'll go." ”

Mrs. Wang still wanted to work hard, but the old village chief spit out a sentence when she looked at Old Man Ding: "It seems that you can't be sure, since you are not from our village, you don't have to take this matter seriously today." ”

If you don't register here, you have to go back to your hometown to register, and when you return to your hometown, you won't have 100 percent of the land.

"Who's to say it's not for sure. We've chosen all the land for our home. "Mrs. Wang stuck her waist and had a very bad and arrogant attitude.

The old village chief squinted at her: "I, the village chief, have the right to drive away residents who don't like the villagers." ”

The arrogant old lady suddenly became short, and everyone in the Wang family hung their heads like quails.

"How many of you guys." The old village chief asked knowingly.

The two brothers of the Wang family are looking at me, and I think you will eventually come out with a fourth after a while.

In addition to the two brothers, there are two children!

The village chief counted again, and then entered the hall with Old Man Ding.

For Zhang Qiang and the others, Yuequan Village is undoubtedly the best place to conquer, and it won't take long for everything to be recorded.

Blowing ink, the official surnamed Wang couldn't hold it back.

"You have fifty-one wild asses and two bison?"

Even though he knew that Zhang Qiang's idea of rounding up wild things came from Old Man Ding, the effect of the real implementation was not so good.

Naturally, he didn't think much about Yuequan Village.

Who knows, they are the only ones who can't do it.

If people don't ask, naturally there is no need to say it, and if they ask, of course they have to answer honestly.

The old village chief immediately explained that the opening of the land by the Ding family affected the early appearance of wild things in the vicinity, and the dry branches and leaves just lured and trapped the actual situation of the wild things that came in the later stage.

"Go deep into the jungle to lure, no wonder you have these gains!"

The time, place, and people are all occupied, and there can be no good results there.

Nodding, he put away the scroll.

The two still had a task, and they quickly threw themselves away.

When leaving, Old Man Ding stuffed two packets of spices.

Within a few days, the men had to leave home, and no one was in the mood to see the excitement of Mrs. Wang, so they left Qiao's house together.

Seeing that Old Man Ding would not come out when he entered the house, Mrs. Wang leaned on the door.
