Chapter 62: Carrying the Banner Against the Wind (Two Chapters in One)
Wanting the village committee to buy roadside wasteland was in Mrs. Xu's plan.
First, as Liu Laozhu said, it is dangerous for her family to do business on the side of the avenue. If it's a large group of people, whether beasts or people, then don't be afraid.
If there are really local tyrants and inferior gentry who are jealous or want to take it by force, they also have to take care of it in their hearts, it is not difficult to forcibly demolish one or two families, but if they dare to forcibly occupy the houses and land of more than 100 villagers, will it be made big. Go out and go into the city en masse to beat drums and voice grievances.
Second, it is indeed difficult for a lone tree to become a forest.
There was only a pestle on the side of the road, and the bad eyes couldn't find out that this was a rice shop, and thought that someone was squeezed out by the village and moved to live on the side of the road.
But if a long torch-lit shop wafts under the guise of a long torch, you can see rows of cooking smoke from a distance, and when you open the door and the smell of rice is steaming, then let the eldest girl and the little daughter-in-law wave the colored cloth strips and greet the tired passers-by: "Big brother, brother, go into the house to warm up, drink hot water and hot rice, grandma, there are guests at home!" ”
In her granddaughter's original words: When the clouds fall, this barren road will become a world of fireworks.
Let those who come from the south to the north, regardless of whether they are Jin merchants or seaports, you must also feel the unique hospitality of our northerners.
Yes, the weather here is bitterly cold and windy, but the people who live here are hot-blooded and fearless.
I can't help but think I'm in town.
When the time comes, you will be shy and shy, even if you ancient people want to make money, you can't be shy, so you will run away to solicit customers. And it is necessary to make this practice a feature that competes with the shops in the town.
Three, you have to help everyone, Mrs. Xu thought to herself: You can't be a lonely tree in that sentence.
When our family eats meat, we want the people in the village to drink the broth.
Otherwise, who will our Xu family become?
Ah, the horn said on the stage that he wanted to hold a group, but when he turned around and knew that the news was good, he took all his own home. If you don't say anything in front of you, at least you will be sour to death behind your back.
After a long time, can the popularity still be so good?
Living in the village is very popular, although sometimes people in the city feel that there is no sense of boundaries, but everything has pros and cons. What did we encounter, and with a wave of our arms, what was it like to bring a large group of people? Even if our family is short of money to buy fish and build a house, can we pay attention to the boundary without giving money first? But in the village, good popularity means that you can take credit first, and you will reach out no matter what work you do.
What's more, her whole family went into battle together, and she was so tired that she couldn't cook for many people, and in her granddaughter's words, it had to be finalized.
For example, her family only cooks "high-end" meals for the stewards, and the food is good and expensive, so that each table can afford to give a small plate of free tasting fish floss and fish balls, and promote them in a targeted manner. Only sell to people who can make up their minds to place orders. On the way back to the market, you can transport the goods with you.
And other families in the village sell food, they have to make multigrain steamed buns, grass seed porridge, ginger soup, spicy soup, small pickles, anyway, what do you care, the poor and middle peasants have to prepare a lot.
Because empathy, we are the caravan stewards and we have to think and think, the steward wants to stop and eat a hot meal, but we can't let everyone eat well, so the meal cost is too expensive.
Last night, Mrs. Xu and Xu Tianxin not only pondered the part of the meal, but even gave a stall for the mule grain and grass.
Her family only sells horse grass that is mixed with grain to make mules extremely vigorous.
Like a team, some of the mules can't hold on and have to be fed immediately. And some mules can still hold on to the road, so they have to be fed ordinary. They can only make money if they are anxious about what the caravan leader is anxious about and what the caravan leader thinks.
And the part about horse grass is destined to make profits, and give ordinary horse grass to all families in the village, so that everyone can earn some hard-earned money by working hard to hold grass.
Let everyone know that the words she said while standing on the stage were not blind, and our girl's words were just a spitting nail.
Mainly, there are not so many people in her family to help feed the caravan and help the mules and horses unload the trucks. It is estimated that only hot water will not be boiled to feed the livestock. No, hire the lonely old people in the village to help boil water. It just so happens that they can't do much business.
So......
At this time, Mrs. Xu squinted slightly at Liu Laozhu, thinking that she had to take this down first.
Only this one has the strength to buy this large piece of land for the villagers first.
After all, you can't raise funds, you can't say this news at the moment, and when you can, it won't be this land price anymore. She didn't want to do business with people from Wangjiagou Lijia Village.
So how can you persuade it, in terms of courage? No, this one doesn't have that.
It's still the old way, threaten, the trick is not afraid of the old, just make it easy.
"Your Jiang matter, aren't you afraid of being liquidated in the future?"
Liu Laozhu was drinking water, and choked when he heard the words: "Ahem, cough, cough...... said that you bought the wasteland, what are you doing in the river? ”
"Because Jiang has something to do with this land, you listen to me give you a detailed analysis.
Let's talk about Jiang first, I heard that you asked if you were going to come to the new general? ”
Mrs. Xu deliberately dragged the small bench to Liu Laozhu before saying:
"Once a son of heaven and a courtier, brother, you still don't understand this little thing?
How many products are there in Xiaozhi County? can also live with our ordinary people, as well as the relatives of Laoshizifu City behind Wang Li, who is a fart in front of the three rank officials.
If you can't afford to work for a lifetime, you are not qualified to kneel in front of others.
So we're going to change the day here, it depends on whether we want to accept a group of people that day.
I even suspect that the forward team has already come, come and see this shallow place in advance, there are not many kings, and the demon wind is not big.
Oh, if the wind accidentally blows someone's face, who is so big, whose face do you use? It's like chopping chickens, you can't look back and clean it up, and you will either not make a move or not miss a single one. ”
After speaking, Mrs. Xu helped Liu Laozhu pick up the fallen water bladder and looked at the frightened.
Liu Laozhu was bluffed by the word "come early".
Because it did come, but only he and Lao Lei knew, and they definitely didn't even dare to say the dream words of the daughter-in-law next to the pillow, how could this woman guess correctly again.
Liu Laozhu swallowed nervously and foamed: "Sister, don't go around in circles, I know that your brain is really good this time." However, I don't understand what this has to do with the wastelands. ”
"Because of my wasteland, to tell you the truth, I don't want to grow crops at all, guarding the side of the road, I want to build a house and open a shop." So you've got to give me a cheaper, and I'm going to have to save money to build a house.
"Huh? There is no one, who are you selling it to? ”
"Tsk, didn't I say it, there must be a tacit understanding between the two of us, do you think who came last night?"
Zhao catchers, Liu Laozhu was puzzled: But he is a catcher, what else can he know?
Mrs. Xu sneered: "I'll just miss a sentence for you, I can't say more, it's easy to cause chaos if I say it." I didn't scare you, I asked you two when I went back. ”
"Say it quickly."
"Do you know where Zhao Dashan served in the army before, the famous Huo Jiajun. Do you know what the new arrivals are not? Then why do you say I want to buy this land, why do I need this way to buy? ”
Why?
Liu Laozhu's face was wrinkled together, and he couldn't help but go to the end: "Understand, don't say, tacit understanding." ”
"Well, that's right. You don't know what I mean by saying this to you. If it weren't for saving you, really, I wouldn't be able to talk about killing you. And this news is always worth a lot. Even if I don't know the rich businessmen in the town and county, don't I know where the gate of the Bai family will open? Such a valuable letter, I will talk to his family about it. ”
The Bai family is the kind of person except Wang Lizheng, a well-known rich family in ten miles and eight villages, and his reputation is good. There is a kid at home who has just been admitted to show his talent and fame this year, and that kid can still be young, but if he is a person next year, it will suddenly become unacceptable.
It was also when she just crossed over, and Yu Jiaba's old thing stinky and said that he made a lot of money by inverting pork and pulling feet, just to help the Bai family.
"And my mother-in-law knows the county king, I asked her to set up a line, it's not that I can't see the family. You don't have to believe it, in a few months you will know that with just this one piece of news, I can earn 180 taels of silver without doing any work. As a result, for you, for the people of our village, I put aside the money in my hand, and I can't even buy a big piece of wasteland. ”
"Sister, I don't have to ask how the wasteland is valuable, but can you tell me in detail, what's good for me."
Liu Laozhu's face was full of bitterness: "In this way, I can also know in my heart, even if I can't give you one hundred and eighty taels of money, I must let the children always remember their aunt's goodness." ”
Then Meizhuang on the donkey cart in the distance, I couldn't hear what was being said, I could only see her Aunt Xu waving her arms in front of Lizheng, talking endlessly.
Meizhuang is not convinced by anyone at the moment, only her aunt, and she is so energetic that she can speak, she feels that she can't beat it in her life.
Her mouth is purely for eating, and the eldest lady's mouth is trimmed with gold.
This Mrs. Xu is persuading Liu Laozhu:
“…… Did you think about the day of the reckoning, when you were arrested, you said that I had done a lot of good things for the villagers, and we shouted yes, everyone helped you petition together, and you were fine? Wrong! ”
"How could it be wrong?" Liu Laozhu was anxious. He didn't have the heart to wonder how Mrs. Xu could guess his psychology correctly, he just wanted to know why he couldn't be good to the villagers.
Mrs. Xu said in a natural tone:
"When the time comes, the guards with knives will come to two rows in a noisy and directly kidnap you.
On the day of the public trial, when you looked up, you were startled, only to realize that there was a room full of people kneeling, and you could only squeeze into the crowd even when you knelt.
And Huo Qingtian, the incriminating evidence of those people kneeling in front of you can't be turned over, then more than a dozen or twenty people have to check the accounts overnight, and the lenient petition you played is a fart in those big accounts.
You said that I had done some good things for the villagers, I went out to help sell goods because I was freezing to death, I helped each of them earn how much Wen, and I used those copper plates to repair old wells in the village, helped widows carry water, and went to graves for the elderly.
May I ask you before liquidating you, how much can you do in total for these small things? Can you earn a total of fifty taels of silver for the villagers?
At that time, what a mess will be made in the trial of the case, and you will make up fifty taels of flowers, and in the eyes of other officials, you and Wang Lizheng will be mixed together.
Just throw you this away, and the dog will wait! ”
Liu Laozhu fell to the ground from the stone, and he died while talking.
"Sister, don't scare my brother, just say how can you bring me back to life."
Mrs. Xu sighed and said:
"If you want to live, brother, if you think of a word, you can let the people above know that you are a good and upright, and you have to have merit.
The kind of merit that people can see at a glance.
And this wasteland is your chance.
Come, you start looking in the direction I point, you think, you start from this side, go all the way to that side, and buy this big area. ”
Liu Laozhu was distracted and found that if he wanted to calculate the distance like this, "Then your wasteland is in the middle?" ”
"I'm not good, I can't take a good position yet, don't interrupt, do you want to hear it?"
"Say, girl."
"At that time, along this road, there will be all newly built shops rising from the ground, brightly lit, and if the business is still good, no one will be blind, it will be a great achievement, and it will be seen by all.
When the whole village petitions you again, it is enough to shout one sentence: the famous Erdaohe Shop Street is the leader of our village, not the gossip that he has picked up water for me. Do you think the people above will ask people to ask what is going on on that street? ”
Liu Laozhu affirmed: "I will ask, if it is a good official, a clean official." ”
Mrs. Xu nodded:
"That's it!
At that time, the good official sent someone to ask a few villagers, and the villagers explained that when we didn't know whether we could make money or not, we bought this large piece of wasteland for everyone.
We also knew that the villagers had no money, and the village committee that helped the village manager also had no money, so he paid it himself, and even paid for his youngest son's tie up next year.
Li Zheng said that he didn't think about anything else before doing this at that time, but he thought that if he really made money, the villagers would also earn some money, and then he would come to him to change the land deed, and only the villagers of Erdaohe Village could buy the land deed from him. ”
Liu Laozhu: "......"
"If some villagers earn some hard-earned money, but still can't afford it, Li Zheng said, then rent it to the poor households in the village, and when the money is enough, he can buy it again at any time, and he keeps a copy for each family.
Li Zheng also said that there are many shops, you can choose some honest people in Shili Eight Village to do business together, not only to drive their own village, when we have the spare strength to make the people in other villages have a better life, not only have a small family, but also have great love.
It just so happens that regardless of whether it is rented to the village or the money from other villages, it can also be used to repair old wells, fish fry, plant small trees, and help the imperial court build more roads. ”
Liu Laozhu: "......"
Mrs. Xu compared to the distance:
"So brother, think about it, even if you have made mistakes before, but you dare to take a big step ahead of others, and take risks for the whole village first, and don't ask for returns, how can the whole village not shout in unison, we are changing, and we are not allowed to look at people with old eyes.
We are walking the road of the world, carrying the flag against the wind, such a good Lizheng, dare to be the master of the people, why do you want him to be a dog, even if you go home and plant sweet potatoes, you can't let him do it!
And the senior official above must be no matter who it is, does he also have to think about it, you Liu Laozhu, the villagers are really courageous, courage is ability, indispensable! ”
Emma, Liu Laozhu seemed to see the picture behind him, and he was so excited that he really wanted to shout: "I have indeed changed, that is me, carrying the flag of the wind and leading the whole village to get rich."
even felt that if he did a good job, he wouldn't be able to prepare for it.
Sister's mouth, he can appreciate it today, it can really make people die and rise.
But back to reality: "I calculated, your wasteland will have to be at least eleven taels if you buy it like this, and if I listen to you and buy all of them, I will get at least fifty taels." ”
But where did it come from fifty taels, and it hasn't even been counted as building a house from the ground.
"Can you borrow adobe from a few villages, it's too late to choke now, you go and write an IOU, and pay it back at the end of the year."
