Chapter 185: Wearing a High Hat (Six Watches)
Ye Sanniang picked up the curtain of the car, and watched the company commander standing on the stone bridge from a distance, pacing back and forth with his hands behind his back, obviously waiting for them!
"Come and stop at the bridge." Ye Sanniang lifted the curtain onto the roof of the carport.
"Yes!" Laifu answered, slowed down, and stopped when he reached the bridge.
Ye Sanniang jumped out of the car and walked towards the company commander who came up, "Company commander."
"Mrs. Ye." Lian Li arched his hand.
"Company Commander." Ye Sanniang blessed her body and returned the courtesy.
"Coming back so soon." Lian Li said in surprise.
"I'll be back when I'm done." Ye Sanniang said with a smile when she heard this, "The company commander wants to ask about cotton, let's talk about it while we go."
"The good thing about cotton is that it can be used as a filler to keep out the cold, to make clothes, to make bedding. It can be woven and is tighter than linen, delicate and durable. Whether there are any other benefits, we need to find out." Ye Sanniang said as she walked, "As for the shortcomings, that is, we haven't planted it, so I don't know how the yield is? In terms of planting, the government will teach us how to plant and when to sow seeds. When will it be harvested? The government will explain it in detail."
"Is it really that good?" After listening carefully, the company commander asked curiously.
"That's what the book says." Ye Sanniang said without blushing and panting.
"How many acres does Mrs. Ye plan to plant?" The captain of the company humbly asked for advice.
"My land is all planted." Ye Sanniang looked at him calmly and said.
"......Shh
"I'm not short of food, so I'm going to grow cotton." Ye Sanniang said in detail how the cotton is taxed, and the purchase price of the cotton by the imperial court.
"Such a big liar." Lian Li Chang looked at her with surprise in his eyes and said, then shook his head and said, "We can't plant all like you, we have to grow food, if we don't grow, what will we eat?"
"So it's going to have to be figured out." Ye Sanniang looked at him with serious eyes and said seriously.
"I'll think about it." The company commander looked at her gratefully and said.
"If the Lianli Commander really wants to plant, go directly to the yamen to register and get the seeds." Ye Sanniang looked at him with a gentle gaze and said, "Even the lieutenant can also ask anyone in our village who wants to go together." I think the prefect will be even happier."
"Why?" The lieutenant of the company looked at her incomprehensibly.
"I was the first to receive the seeds, and the company was the first to receive the seeds." Ye Sanniang's dark eyes looked at him and said meaningfully.
The Lian Li Chang can be the Li Chief, except that the Lian family is powerful in the village, that is, he is shrewd and capable!
The commander of the company looked at her with bright eyes when he heard this, this is a big show in front of the prefect! There aren't many opportunities!
Lian Li Chang shook his hand to the end and said, "Thank you Madam Ye for your advice."
"No thanks, no thanks, it's the company commander who has a high prestige in our Hedong Village." Ye Sanniang did not hesitate to put a high hat on him.
Hearing this, the Lianli chief felt like soaking in the well water in midsummer, and his heart was cool and comfortable!
"Don't bother Mrs. Ye." The company commander arched his hand at her, then turned to leave.
"Mother, don't you get on the bus?" Ye Yanxing sat on the wheel and looked at Ye Sanniang in front of him and said.
"No, it's just a few steps, and we'll be there soon." Ye Sanniang looked back at them when she heard the words and said.
"Then let's come down too." The two brothers jumped out of the car.
"Oh my God, you let Laifu stop! It's not dangerous." Ye Sanniang looked at the two of them in a panic and said.
"Walk slowly, it's fine." Ye Yanxing said with a grin.
"My mother is still dancing! We won't be able to." Ye Luoxing looked at her with big eyes and said.
Ye Sanniang shook her head and laughed when she heard this, and promised, "If you don't jump in the future, you are not allowed to jump, wait for the car to stop, and then come down."
"Oh!" The two nodded obediently.
"Laifu, you can go first!" Ye Sanniang pulled the two children sideways and got out of the way, letting Laifu drive the mule cart home first.
"Yes!" Laifu drove the car ahead of the curve, and walked farther and farther.
"Let's go!" Ye Sanniang looked at them left and right and said.
"Mother, why did you talk so much to the company commander!" Ye Luoxing looked at her curiously and said, hesitating for a moment, "It's still ...... Still...... Praise him."
"Because he's the lieutenant, we're on his territory, and if we want to live without trouble, we have to have a good relationship with him." Ye Sanniang was stunned when she heard this, and then smiled, "Now it seems that there is no stubbornness that can't listen to words."
"Mother, if you really want to say that you can't move the Lianli Chief, can we harvest this sorghum?" Ye Yanxing looked at her with black grape-like eyes and asked.
"Close! Destroying grain will thunder and thunder." Ye Sanniang's dark pupils looked at them and said, "It's just that we have to pay some price, of course, this price is willing to be given, and the mood is different from being forced to give. Do you understand?"
"Understood! If there are many people in the village, it doesn't have to be a few tenant farmers." Ye Yanxing looked at her with a slightly cold look in his eyes and said.
"There are so many solutions in this world that you can't be self-righteous and take control of others." Ye Sanniang took the opportunity to look at them and said, "Don't take yourself too seriously, it's nothing."
"Uh-huh!" Ye Yanxing nodded hurriedly when he heard this.
"Will the mother still use them?" Ye Luoxing looked at her curiously and blinked.
"Of course they came." Ye Sanniang looked at them tenderly and said, "In the end, they are still poor, and there is no other way, life is hard! None of them are big women who do great evil." He chuckled and said, "This happened, did they dare to come?" If you dare to come, you really can't live anymore."
"That's right, but if you want to make a face, you won't come." Ye Yanxing sighed lightly and said, "It's not forced by life, who wants to!"
"Yes!" Ye Sanniang looked at him tenderly and said.
"Mother, mother, why didn't you tell me about the saline-alkali land!" Ye Luoxing said as she shook her hand.
"There is no basis for words! Who are you? Why should the prefect listen to you?" Ye Sanniang bent her elbow and pounded his shoulder and smiled, "You have to come up with real data."
"Then why does the company chief listen to you?" Ye Luoxing looked at him puzzled and said.
"Stupid! If the commander of the company does not listen, the grain production will be reduced, and he will go hungry." Ye Yanxing leaned forward and leaned his head to look at him and said, "Lord Prefect, no matter what happens in the field? He won't go hungry."
"Yan Xing is right, this is really related to his own interests, and he must make a decision." Ye Sanniang's deep dark eyes looked at them and said, "You can't dodge, you can't escape!"
