Lu Sanlang's face turned green when he heard it!

Twenty pounds?

This good dragon well before the rain is ten taels of silver and one tael!

Lu Saburo didn't dare to say no, he was hesitant, as if he had a lump of stool stuck in his throat.

Jia Baoyu said again: "Master Lu, don't worry, I'm not here to ask you for money, it's just that I'm a newcomer, I have no foundation at all, no money, no food, no soldiers, and now I don't even have firewood, so I want to borrow a place from Master Lu for me to train." ”

Lu Saburo asked, "What place?" ”

"It's the barren mountain north of the guard, you know, training is very expensive, and I don't like to exploit the poor, I heard that the mountain belongs to Master Lu, so I came over to ask with a shy face."

Jia Baoyu said lightly: "And I don't borrow in vain, I can give rent." ”

As soon as he heard that there was a rent, Lu Sanlang's face looked much better, and even changed his title, and said: "Brother Jia Xian, this barren mountain is the ancestral business of the old man, and it is not my alone, the Lu family has many branches, and it is not easy to lend it." ”

Jia Baoyu said with a smile: "In this case, the official will not bother, anyway, those homeless people recruited don't know the rules, if they inadvertently fall a spark, they will set the mountain on ......."

Lu Saburo hurriedly said: "Willing to borrow, willing to borrow!" ”

The poor are afraid of the horizontal, and the horizontal are afraid of the dead.

Lu Saburo is used to being comfortable, and he is most afraid of being rogues or something.

Jia Baoyu raised his ass and sat back again, and said, "Master Lu, don't be afraid, I have a business here, and I can cooperate with Master Lu."

I see that Master Lu's family has a big business, but most of them collect rent on some land, and deal with those mud legs all day long, and it is hard work, and there is not much money.

My business is hugely profitable, as long as Master Lu provides graphite, we can make the business done, and then Master Lu can also become the first businessman in Dazhou. ”

Lu Saburo was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly asked what kind of business it was.

Jia Baoyu took out the pencil he was carrying, Lu Sanlang wrote and painted, and said in surprise: "This thing is convenient to write, and it can indeed make money." ”

Jia Baoyu took another sip of tea and said: "I see that there is a lot of land under the mountain, far away from the river, and the grain is grown, and the output is not much, and it is not enough for the rations of the people who cultivate the land, can Master Lu also rent it to me?" ”

Lu Sanlang said without hesitation: "What Brother Jia said, as long as you can see it, take it all, if it is not enough, the old man will give you some more, but this rent is ......"

Jia Baoyu said with a smile: "Just use this business as rent, let's divide the account in thirty-seven!" ”

Lu Sanlang smiled when he heard this: "Brother Jia is a cheerful person, but the old man He De can actually occupy seventy percent!" ”

"What seventy percent, it's thirty percent, by the way, I forgot to tell you, there is another person involved in this business, the Jingying Festival makes the prince Teng, he accounts for seventy percent, and you only account for thirty percent of the remaining thirty percent."

Jia Baoyu laughed.

Lu Saburo: ......

Coming out of the Lu Mansion, Jia Baoyu had two more contracts in his hands.

One is a mountain deed and the other is a land deed.

Shen Lian was carrying a sack in his hand, which contained the tea given by Lu Sanlang.

Lu Jianxing said with a smile on the side: "My lord is a good means, I didn't spend a penny of silver, and in a few words, I let Lu Sanlang give up the mountains and forests and land." ”

Jia Baoyu said with a smile: "It's not that I didn't spend money, this pencil business is real, as long as it can be done, it will be profitable." ”

Lu Jianxing doesn't know much about the pencil business, in his opinion, a small wooden stick is a business.

When I returned to the guard house, I saw a long queue outside the fort wall, and many ragged refugees were queuing up to receive porridge.

Seeing Jia Baoyu coming back, Jia Yun greeted him and said, "I heard that we are recruiting troops here, and many refugees around us have poured over. ”

Last year, there was a drought across the country, and the number of refugees was too large, and the imperial court could not provide relief at all.

Now that spring is two months away, these refugees have no choice but to starve to death if they don't starve to death.

Jia Baoyu gave food here, and promised to pay silver, one penny per person per month.

Don't be too little, although many soldiers are paid a lot of money, they can be deducted by their superiors, and in the end they may not get anything.

It's just that these refugees queue up in a mess, don't talk in an orderly manner, and talk nonsense, which is like a vegetable market.

Jia Baoyu made a look, Lu Jianxing and Jin Yichuan understood, and went straight forward to maintain order, and those who were disobedient were directly kicked out, and those who were stabbed were driven out directly.

With the two leaders, the military households in the guard also came out to help maintain order together.

This time, Jia Baoyu brought not many people, and if he wants to develop, he must develop local strength.

Niu Er ran over, and when he saw Jia Baoyu empty-handed, he couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

He thought that Jia Baoyu would go to Lu Sanlang's house, and he would have to come back, it seems that this Lord Jia is a silver-like pewter spear head, and he looks like a product.

Jia Baoyu said: "Gather the men in the guard, I have something to say." ”

Niu Er didn't know why, so he still did as he was told.

After everyone arrived, Jia Baoyu said in front of everyone: "In the future, this mountain, as well as the 3,000 acres of fields under the mountain, will be owned by my Zuowei.

I only charge 30% of the rent for the reclaimed land. ”

Hearing Jia Baoyu's words, there was a commotion among the military households present.

Niu Er boldly asked: "My lord, this land belongs to Master Lu's family, you say that you will divide it?" ”

Jia Baoyu took out a land deed from his arms and said: "Today, I will go to Lu Sanlang's house and get back a land deed. ”

Niu Er's lips trembled, he saw it clearly, it was really the land deed of the left guard's land!

I'm a good girl, this little Jia really wants the title deed of the field back, and he does what he says!

Niu Er shouted loudly: "Folks, this is our left guard's Tian Qi, it was Lord Jia who helped us get it back, everyone kowtow to Lord Jia!" ”

There is no need for Niu Er to shout, there are already many family members of military families kneeling on the ground, calling Jia Baoyu benevolent and righteous!

As farmers, they dream of having their own land!

When you have the land, you can be regarded as taking root.

The person who was lining up next to him to be a soldier asked, "My lord, if we are soldiers, will we be given land?" ”

As soon as these words came out, all the military households in the guard station looked at them angrily.

Three thousand acres of land sounds like a lot, but when it comes to each family, it's only twenty or thirty acres, or even less.

If these people can also divide the land, they may not be able to support themselves.

Jia Baoyu said: "There will be it, I still have the title deed of this mountain in my hand, and when you join in, you can divide the fields on the mountain, but this mountain land has not been cultivated yet, and you need to cultivate it yourself." ”

The size of this mountain is not small, and if all the trees on it are cut down, there will be at least tens of thousands of acres of land.

However, it is not easy to reclaim mountain forests, and if you want to cultivate in the mountains, the hard work you pay is several times that of flat land.

But these refugees cheered together, because as long as they have land, they have a way to live, and if they have a way to live, they can settle down, and they are no longer refugees.

In one day, more than 800 displaced people were recruited.
