Chapter 51: Do You Want to Hear What You're Talking About?
Wu Qingxi was in a good mood and chatted with Wu Qingmiao while walking.
Suddenly, his gaze caught a spot, and his expression changed slightly.
"Sister, what's wrong?"
"It's okay, let's go back, Daddy should be in a hurry." Wu Qingxi frowned, he is here?
Wu Qingmiao looked around and didn't find anything unusual.
"Are you really okay?"
Wu Qingxi nodded, just thought that he was dazzled and mistaken.
The man hiding in the shadows breathed a sigh of relief, glad that he had not been discovered.
If the task assigned by the master is not completed, he will not have the face to go back to the secret guard.
The people of the village began to come back one by one.
It's just that I have experienced Taonan once, and I feel that things are wrong.
Wu Qingxi went to the field to see it once, and barrenness was not the main thing, the most important thing was that the soil seemed to be destroyed.
"I don't know if I can find crops after planting?" Daddy Wu sighed as he smoked a dry cigarette.
It's dog days now, and I won't be able to plant rice in time, but it's still okay to plant some sweet potatoes.
Sprinkle some more cabbage seeds, at least to keep your mouth shut.
Not only Wu Dad is worried, every family is pondering in the ground.
Suddenly, a gong sounded in the village.
This is the voice of the village announcing the meeting, and Wu Dad and Wu Qinghe have already passed.
"Sister, do you have any ideas?" Wu Aoki was looking forward to it.
My sister is so smart, I can't think of anything else.
Wu Qingxi shook her head, farming is indeed not her strong point.
However, she has a lot of space seeds.
Father Wu went for an hour before coming back, and when he came back, it was a mixed blessing.
"Old man, what are you talking about with the village chief and Li Zheng?"
Father Wu took a sip of water and took a long breath before he spoke: "Li Zheng said that the county order that came first has been notified, and there is a medicinal powder for improving the soil quality, and every village will have it according to the mu of land at that time, but the seed problem needs to be solved by yourself." And the top has clearly requested that the ground will not be empty. ”
"Why? Don't want to break the law? Wu Aoki was the first to ask.
Father Wu slapped him on the back of the head: "What do you know, if you don't plant this season, how do you know if the soil quality is good?" If the wheat can't be planted in autumn, everyone will have to drink the northwest wind next year. ”
Wu Qingxi nodded after listening, this cloud jin can be regarded as bothering.
Now that everyone is short of food and drink, most people don't leave their fields empty, but it's always right just in case.
"Daddy, where's the seed? What does the prefectural order say? There is a catastrophe, and the imperial court has to subsidize some, right? Wu Qingxi asked.
Father Wu sighed: "This is the problem, there are many disasters in Minxian County this year, and the imperial court subsidizes fifty copper plates per mu, which is not enough, and you can figure it out by yourself." ”
Fifty copper plates per acre?
Wu Qingxi remembered that their family had about six acres of land, which was three hundred copper plates.
If it was before, it might be okay.
But judging from the things she went shopping yesterday, the prices in Minxian County have risen sharply.
I'm afraid that this little bit of silver is only enough for the seeds of a maximum of two acres of land.
Their family doesn't matter, after all, she has a strong family, but other people's families are not necessarily.
Wu Qingxi listened to her mother chatting with the neighbor's aunt, and many people fled the famine and spent all their family resources.
Now let alone hundreds of copper plates, I'm afraid that there are not many people who can come up with spare money.
is also troubled, as well as Yunjin.
He didn't expect that he would be in charge in person, and this disaster relief money could still be exploited layer by layer.
It's not that those people don't want to die, it's just that there is a backstage.
knew that he wouldn't come over to do things so smoothly this time, but he came here from the beginning, and it was clear that he was giving him a dismissal.
They, after all, are restless.
"What about the seeds that I bought before?"
"Master, all the counties and towns in the radius have been gone, and the number is still not enough. A little further away is even less cost-effective. It is a problem to remove the cost of purchasing and transporting it. ”
Yun Jin was stunned for a moment, their Yun family is all Wenchen, if it is about lip service, it is naturally no problem.
But if you do it, your weaknesses will be exposed.
There is really a kind of silver in hand, but I don't know how to spend it.
"Otherwise, let's find the master......"
Yun Jin raised his hand: "No need, don't alarm his old man for this little thing, I have my own score." ”
His grandfather is a master, and his father is a scholar of the Hanlin Academy, if they make a move, wouldn't it be a joke.
"But ......"
"No, but, besides, I don't want to repeat my words twice in the future, understand?"
"Yes." Yun Li Mu arched his hand and retreated silently.
Although he was arranged by the master by the young master's side, he had to know how to advance and retreat.
Yun Jin frowned, looking at the dim oil lamp and was silent.
Grandpa privately gave him a team of elite men and horses to keep him safe.
If they are ......
Before he could finish thinking about it, the oil lamp suddenly jumped.
"Who?" As soon as his words came to his lips, he swallowed them when he saw who was coming.
"I have something to discuss with you." Wu Qingxi's expression was very relaxed.
Yun Jin looked at the fact that there was no movement outside, and his heart couldn't help jumping: "Are they okay?" ”
Wu Qingxi smiled lightly: "Seeing that they are tired, let them sleep, and after an hour, they will naturally wake up." ”
Yun Jin's face did not change, but he was thinking in his heart: This is the so-called elite?
Are they too weak, or is the woman in front of them too strong?
"Now, the umbrella will be returned to you, thank you." Wu Qingxi put the umbrella on the table.
"You're here to return the umbrella?" Yun Jin was a little unbelievable.
"Of course not, this is convenient, I came to you to talk about business."
Wu Qingxi's expression became a little serious: "The matter of the imperial court subsidizing fifty copper plates per mu of land should give you a headache, right?" If there is such a famine and chaos this year, it will not be easy to deal with you, right? ”
She said it so firmly that Yun Jin almost thought that she already knew her identity.
"So, what do you want to say?"
"I have a large number of seeds here, and I can give them to you. With this batch of seeds, it is difficult for everyone to go hungry. Of course, the premise is that you can improve the soil quality. ”
Although Yun Jin was a little unconvinced, he still said the truth: "The medicinal powder to improve the soil quality has arrived at the yamen, and someone will strictly supervise it, and it will be distributed in the next few days." As long as it rains, the soil quality will be fine. ”
"As for the seeds, how many do you have?" In line with the principle of a bit of calculation, Yun Jin actually didn't report much hope.
"How much do you want?"
There are thirteen large and small towns in Minxian County, and there are four or five villages under each town, and each village has at least two or three hundred acres of land.
In this way, Minxian County must have at least 20,000 acres of land.
"20,000 acres of land, no matter what kind of seeds, I'm afraid there will be no less."
The corners of Wu Qingxi's mouth raised slightly: "10,000 catties of cabbage radish seeds, 100,000 catties of sweet potato seeds, is it enough?" ”
Yun Jin: ......
Do you want to hear what you're talking about?
It's not that he doesn't believe in Wu Qingxi, normal people won't believe it.
100,000 catties of sweet potatoes? I'm afraid that Kyoto's granaries don't have so much stock.
