Chapter 36 Renegotiation of land rent

Qin Tao thought about it, and used up all his silver, as well as the horseshoe gold that Zhu Dahai gave him.

Then take down the Liu family's mansion.

Unexpectedly, he only donated 3,000 taels of silver.

not only got the Liu family's house, but also got the Liu family's fertile land.

I drank with Zheng Zhixian.

Zheng Zhixian almost promised his daughter to be a concubine to himself.

Qin Tao excused himself.

Not for anything else, just because Miss Zheng is a child in his eyes.

He was only seventeen years old.

But my sister is pretty much the same.

It seems that Zheng Zhixian didn't care, and finally gave the Liu family's house deed and land deed to Qin Tao.

When Qin Tao came out of the county government.

He had already turned from a tenant to a landlord.

This did not make Qin Tao get carried away.

He didn't think that he was beautiful or talented, and he was appreciated by the magistrate.

All of this came about because of Zhu Wenzheng.

If there is no relationship between him and Zhu Wenzheng, I am afraid that Zheng Zhixian may not take a second look at himself.

Back home.

told Xi Shuyun the good news.

It turned out that Xi Shuyun was watering the cabbage in the courtyard.

After listening to Qin Tao's words.

She was stunned for a moment.

"Xianggong, you didn't lie to me, did you?"

Qin Tao took out the title deed and house deed and let Xi Shuyun see it.

Xi Shuyun couldn't understand it, but she knew that all this was true.

So, Xi Shuyun jumped up.

His hands hooked Qin Tao's neck and imprinted a deep kiss on his face.

Then, Xi Shuyun knew that she had lost her temper.

Embarrassed blushing.

"Xianggong, you won't laugh at me, will you?" Xi Shuyun whispered.

Qin Tao shook his head and said, "We are husband and wife, so it's natural to be intimate." ”

"By the way, Zheng Zhixian still wants to marry his daughter to me today."

"You didn't agree?"

"Of course I won't agree."

"Alas, you are stupid!"

In other matters, Xi Shuyun never interferes too much.

However, she just wanted Qin Tao to take a concubine.

complained to Qin Tao a few words.

Qin Tao didn't care.

What a blessing.

Prepared a bit, then ready to start moving.

Although Liu Dahe's house was raided, he copied all valuable good things.

Tables, chairs, benches, pots and pans, and beds are still there.

So Qin Tao basically checked in with his bags.

Since then, he has had a family business.

Qin Tao was proud.

As soon as he arrived outside the gate of Liu's house, he was blocked by a man in tattered clothes.

"Master Qin Tao, it's me!"

Long hair hides your face.

If it weren't for the familiar voice, Qin Tao would almost not recognize Zhao Xin.

Liu's house was raided.

The end of his butler was also quite miserable.

Legs were broken by officers and soldiers.

The family's wealth was also swept away.

Several sons turned their faces and didn't recognize anyone, they didn't want to take him in, and they went to their daughter's house and were scolded by their son-in-law to go out.

The wife died in a fit of rage.

A good home is scattered.

Leaving him Zhao Xin alone, he is not as good as a dog.

"Zhao Xin, hurry up."

Qin Tao stepped forward to help him.

No matter how many grievances there were in the past, Qin Tao didn't want to mention them again.

Seeing that Zhao Xin's legs hung down weakly.

He understood right away.

Zhao Xin in front of him is already a wasted person.

He is a big moth parasitic on Liu's house.

The Liu family is finished.

He followed and finished.

Alas!

The world is impermanent.

Thirty years in the east of the river, thirty years in the west of the river.

"Master Qin Tao, please have mercy on me and take me in."

Zhao Xin snorted and cried.

Qin Tao was unmoved.

Everything in the past, he can ignore the past.

But there is something to hate in the wretched.

I wanted to give him a few taels of silver to send things away.

Helplessly, Xi Shuyun pleaded softly.

"Xianggong, you can take him in."

Qin Tao listened to Xi Shuyun's words, so he left Zhao Xin to watch the door.

The housekeeper who used to be majestic is now a janitor.

However, Zhao Xin is still grateful.

Qin Tao moved into the new house.

Replaced the door plaque with the Qin Mansion.

The previous girl, as well as the old mother and the family, Qin Tao basically recruited them back.

The salary is higher than before.

Especially those family members who have had conflicts with Qin Tao, they will say when they meet people that the current master Qin Tao is the reincarnation of a living Bodhisattva.

The village chief carried chickens and ducks to congratulate Qin Tao.

Qin Tao accepted the gift.

I know that this is a piece of everyone's heart.

Set up a banquet at home and invite the village chief to drink.

The village chief was obviously a little cautious, because Qin Tao was already an old man.

"Village chief, after you go back, give everyone all the land that Liu Dahe planted before, and I don't want any land."

"What about the rent?" The village chief asked.

That's what he's most concerned about.

It's not just him, it's the people of the village who are concerned about this issue.

used to be a tenant for Liu Dahe, and Liu Dahe asked for land rent according to the harvest of four or six years.

That is, Liu Dahe wants to draw sixty percent.

Forty percent for the tenants.

In a bad year, Liu Dahe didn't follow this, he asked for three stones of grain per mu.

If you can't give it, it will be recorded in the next year.

Therefore, the villagers owe Liu Jiatian rent almost every year.

"Village Chief."

Qin Tao emotionally shook the village chief's hand.

For the first time, it was found that the village chief's hands were not only rough, but also skinny.

"Master Qin Tao." The village chief raised his dim eyes and looked at Qin Tao.

"Don't call me master, just call me Qin Tao as before."

Qin Tao solemnly told the village chief and said, "After you go back, tell the villagers, and say that the previous debts with the Liu family have been written off." ”

"As for the future rent, it will be calculated according to eleven."

"Eleven?" The village chief was puzzled.

Qin Tao said with a smile: "Even if I harvest one percent of the grain, when there is no harvest, the field rent will be free." ”

"This ......"

The village chief twitched.

Then two lines of hot tears dripped down.

"They are right, you are the reincarnation of a living bodhisattva."

"Qin Tao, on behalf of the whole village, I will kowtow to you."

Qin Tao helped the village chief.

Compared with the previous rent of four or six fields, Qin Tao's current rent of eleven fields is simply not too humane.

The village chief is content.

For them, farming is no longer stressful.

Not only is the land rent less.

And they no longer have to work for the owner, because Qin Tao doesn't farm anymore.

Almost all of the grain they gathered from the fields was their own.

In addition to farming, you can go into the mountains to collect medicine, or hunt some game, and go to the town to exchange some money to supplement the family.

Coupled with the pigskin waterwheel developed by Qin Tao for them, everyone basically got rid of the years of relying on the sky to eat.

When Qin Tao sent the village chief out of the gate.

When I looked up, I saw that the black and oppressive villagers were gathered outside the gate.

Like a surging ocean.

The black and thin faces made Qin Tao moved.

The village chief told everyone what Qin Tao said.

Next, several sturdy young men in the village rushed over and couldn't help but lift Qin Tao high above the top.

"Qin Tao, Qin Tao ......"

The voices of thousands of villagers resounded in the sky.

Qin Tao saw that everyone's eyes were beating with a light that was almost worshipping.
