Chapter 269: Cheng Biting Jin's Flicker
"It's not a trivial matter for a young man to be so flamboyant, I'll have to talk about him another day."
Cheng Yanjin looked at such a large number of people envy him, not to mention how happy he was in his heart, but in front of so many people, this guy still made a face, although Li Xiang had just established the identity of the emperor's grandson, but Lao Tzu was serious and his father-in-law taught him a lesson.
These people around them all looked disgusted, and today they asked you to pretend to be a force, who made you the grandson of the emperor's father-in-law.
"By the way, I heard something, haven't you gained a lot from the southwest battlefield? Why did you take it all to buy land, and when did you become interested in farming? Didn't you say that living on rent is the most stupid? ”
Qin Qiong remembered another thing, the two of them came back from the southwest battlefield, it can be said that they have gained a lot, but Cheng Yanjin took all the money to buy land, and the land price around Chang'an City itself is not cheap, it is all because of the trouble caused by Li Xiang's father and son, and now if you go to buy land, the price will be even higher, although the annual grain production is a lot of money, but this yield is too low.
"The secret of heaven must not be revealed, I can say the ugly things in front, if you follow me to learn this matter, how much is the rent on the ground in Chang'an City? I'll add another 20% to you, and as for what I do, you don't care, it's also a benefit I give you. ”
The bag on Cheng Bitingjin's head hasn't disappeared yet, and he immediately began to calculate these old brothers, Li Xiang told him to double it, but Cheng Biting Jin is not so generous, he is ready to make a difference.
When each family just entered Chang'an, they also bought a lot of fields around, who to rent to plant is not to plant, Cheng Yanjin can also give more than two percent of the rent here, some people began to have ideas in their hearts, although two percent does not sound like a lot, but this is the most stable income every year, not to mention that their land base is huge.
"Can you grow a cash cow in your field?"
Although Li Xiaogong is the prince, he usually mingles with them, and the land in his hand is enough, if he gives Cheng a bit of gold, he can get an extra thousand yuan every year.
When they heard this, everyone stopped talking and turned their ears together, which showed that this income was still attractive to them.
"You don't care what I plant, anyway, I can give you 20% of the land rent every year, but there is another thing, those tenants on your land, can't all be dismissed, one counts as one, they all have to stay, how much grain they collected last year, I will give it to them this year, but I have to do something for me."
Cheng Yanjin suddenly thought of the most important thing, there are not so many farmers on Li Xiang's side, after buying the land, the original farmers still have to work here, if there are no these farmers, then the land price will not be sold.
"You old bastard, what kind of medicine is sold in the gourd? Can you tell us the truth? ”
Wei Chi Jingde's side is about to make a move, Qin Qiong hurriedly stopped this guy, Cheng Yanjin is still recuperating at home, but it's not like usual, you can do it at will, but today it definitely can't.
"You guys don't care, am I Lao Cheng the kind of person who has no reputation? Isn't that the annual rent? Could it be that I'm still going to trap you all? I'm kind enough to take you to make money, although the annual money is not much compared to your expenses, but at least it's a way to make money, if you don't want to make money, pull it down. ”
Cheng Yanjin can't explain this, in fact, he doesn't know what Li Xiang is used for, if he can reveal a little, then he must be clear, is it difficult to tell these people that I am also subcontracted, and then I make more money than you in the middle, and I earn it with your land, so it's strange that these people can't abolish him.
"I heard that your father-in-law's Cui family's land has also been given to you?"
Wei Chi Jingde has been staying in Chang'an, so the news of Chang'an is relatively clear, Cheng Bitingjin's father-in-law is also from the Cui family, but he is not the steward of the Cui family, he can only be regarded as a wealthy man in the sideline, but the family also has a lot of land, and it is said that all of it was given to Cheng Biting Gold last month.
"My father-in-law believes in me, how can it be the same as you people, of course, I am not afraid that you will go out to inquire, my father-in-law will give him a price 30% higher, and I can only give you 20% higher."
Cheng Yanjin doesn't like these old brothers anymore, how can he do something so grinding? In peacetime, you can give your back to the other side on the battlefield, but now it's just a piece of land, can't you even believe this?
Just when Cheng Biting Jin fooled these old brothers, Li Xiang had already come to the farm outside the city, and according to the reports of the people here, the first batch of grain had been cooked, and the experimental field had also been beaten.
When Li Xiang arrived, the wheat had already been cut, and many people put on large cylindrical stones and began to press the wheat, which is also the oldest method of this era.
"Is this the yield of this acre?"
Li Xiang saw that there was a small pile of grain next to him, which was to cut out a single acre of land, Li Xiang wanted to see how the unit yield was, the previous system introduced two thousand catties, and now how many Li Xiang have to take a good look.
"If you go back to Your Highness, it will be two thousand and one hundred catties."
Hearing Niu Si whisper, Li Xiang understood what was going on, except for this single acre of land, all the others were mixed, and these people below were often transferred, and Li Xiang didn't want them to figure out what the yield per mu was.
In today's era, it is normal to have a yield of 300 catties per mu, if you encounter natural disasters and man-made disasters, even 200 catties are possible, and the highest yield per mu is only about 350 catties, and Li Xiang can reach 2,100 catties here, almost more than seven times that of this era.
The test fields have a total of 4,000 acres, and now they are all ripe, and the next thing is the time for harvest.
"How's the granary going?"
Li Xiang wants to crack down on the five surnames and seven hopes, grain is a very important level, if all of them are taken out and sold, they will be alerted in advance, so before a large amount of grain comes out, Li Xiang has to build a grain warehouse by himself to store it.
"Your Highness, rest assured, everything has been built as planned."
Niu Wu is in charge of this matter, and at present, the granaries across the country have been completed, and the grain will be ready after half a month.
