032. Big landowners

Ren Pingsheng obviously felt that his strength had improved, coupled with pulling the muscles every day, his body became flexible and powerful, and step by step, now he easily kicked a high leg, and his toes had already exceeded his head.

The word horse is even more relaxed.

Many difficult movements, such as carp fighting, backflips, jumping and spinning on the spot, etc., can be easily mastered.

Ren Pingsheng feels that his current state and skills, if he goes to dance, he should be able to practice something soon.

Under the jump, he is as light as a swallow, and if he goes to the court to play basketball, it will be easy to dunk violently.

In addition, the shoulder, neck and low back pain that has been bothering him for several years has not hurt anymore in the past few days.

This made Ren Pingsheng, who was already self-disciplined, truly experience the benefits of martial arts, and he was able to persevere more.

"The effect of the medicinal bath is to use the power to restore the state of the body's muscles and muscles, reduce the damage when practicing boxing, and at the same time, make the muscles stronger.

Can you extract the essence from these herbs, and can the effect be better? ”

Ren Pingsheng thought that when he had an oil massage in the club that day, the muscles and muscles felt very hot, and he was very comfortable.

According to his experience of maintaining health care in the club all year round because of shoulder and neck pain, most of those essential oils are herbal essences, which can relax the muscles and invigorate the blood.

And the medicinal herbs of the medicated bath have a similar effect.

If you want to make essential oils according to the proportion, Ren Pingsheng feels that it should not be difficult.

"If you have time, look for Tian Qi and Old Man Pan. Then look at finding a lab and making essential oils to try.

With concentrated essence oil, the effect is definitely more domineering, and the progress of practice can also be accelerated. ”

Ren Pingsheng thought.

Seeing that tomorrow is the seventh day, he is going to the Lan Clan Martial Arts Hall to test the results of martial arts, and when Ren Pingsheng was about to exchange cultivation experiences with Liu Qiang and the four of them, the sixth and Liu Shu came back together with a stack of land deeds.

"Done?"

Ren Pingsheng asked.

"Well, that's it, this is the title deed of 320 acres of land. In addition, there are 5 yeoman farmers who have rented our land, but because the tax is too heavy this year, these 5 yeoman farmers themselves have heavy saline land, low grain production, and they can't pay the rent, so we added a little money and bought their land directly, and also turned into our tenants.

With the addition of 80 acres of land for these five homesteaders, we now have 400 acres. ”

Five feet is a step, a step of 240 is an acre, and a hundred acres is an acre, with these 4 tilting fields, Ren Pingsheng is also a big landowner.

Tell Xiaowan to put the title deed into the safe.

"Let's go and have a look on our land."

Ren Pingsheng called Liu Qiang and the four of them together, rented a carriage at the car dealership in the city, and headed towards his own land outside the city.

The land is in the south of the city, not far from the south city gate, and it is more than ten miles along the official road to arrive.

However, the location of the farm is relatively remote, far from the official road, and the carriage runs very bumpy on the small dirt road.

After turning through a dense forest, in the distance, a farm appeared in front of me.

"This farm was built by tenants, and the scale is not large, and it can't stop the bandits, but can only play the role of blocking some wandering living corpses."

Lao Liu pointed to the farm in the distance and said.

The earthen city wall of the farm is not high, only a little more than two meters, and the bandits at this height have jumped over it, which is much worse than the earthen city wall of Liujia Village.

And the entire rampart of the farm has only one southern gate.

When he arrived at the city gate, the sixth child got out of the car and shouted, and the gate was slowly opened.

The carriage drove into the farm, and Ren Pingsheng frowned and looked at the farm.

This farm is too cramped, and the houses of twenty families are scattered in the farm, which already occupies most of the place.

In addition, there is only one threshing floor, and it is also a place for twenty families to chat in the evening.

Then there is a well on the edge of the threshing floor, which supplies water to 20 households.

"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! ”

In the sound of gongs, the twenty families in the farm knew that the new owner of the farm, Master Ren, was here.

They all hurriedly put on their clothes and waited for the new master's lecture.

They were faintly worried in their hearts, for fear that the new master would drive them away and not let them farm.

If this is the case, then those of them who eat by pointing to these lands will really die!

It can be said that after the land was transferred to Master Ren, Master Ren had already grasped the lifeblood of their twenty households.

"Uncle, are you the steward of this farm?"

On the threshing floor, Ren Pingsheng asked the old man in front of him who was almost covered in skin and bones, and there was no meat on his body.

The old man shivered in the cold wind, his gray and white beard fluttering in the wind, and the dirty clothes he wore could not stop the cold winter wind.

He looked at Ren Pingsheng's eyes, with awe, apprehension, and hope, which was very complicated.

He clearly knew that the beautifully dressed young man in front of him had the power to decide the life and death of the tenants of the farm.

"Master, the little old man is a little older, he is respected by the people in the Zhuangzi, and he is appreciated by the original Master Huang, so he has become the steward in the Zhuangzi."

The old man said respectfully.

"What's my husband's name?"

Ren Pingsheng asked.

The old man was on crutches, and he didn't dare to speak loudly, and said: "The surname is Hu, and everyone calls me Hu Laosan." ”

"Since everyone in Zhuangzi respects you, then I will let you continue to be the temporary steward."

Ren Pingsheng said.

"Thank you, Master."

Listening to Ren Pingsheng's words, the old man breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

Seeing what this means, the new master has no intention of expelling them.

This also means that everyone in Zhuangzi can continue to farm here, and will not be like those refugees who have no food and clothing, life and death.

"Okay, go and tell everyone, everything is still according to the old practice of Master Huang's time, and the grain grown is divided into fifty and fifty.

So that everyone doesn't have to bear a heart. ”

Ren Pingsheng saw that the people in Zhuangzi had gradually gathered on the threshing floor, so he waved his hand and asked Hu Laosan to explain.

Hu Laosan nodded and walked to the crowd on crutches.

"Shishu, you go and count the number of men and women in Zhuangzi, and the number of people over 15 years old and under 40 years old.

There is a craft, a separate mark of the book that has been read. ”

Ren Pingsheng said to Liu Shu.

"Okay."

Liu Shu nodded, pulled out a pen, ink, paper and inkstone from the carriage, and asked the villagers to pull out a table and start registering.

"Sixth, I remember you said before that this land was originally sent to Master Gao in Qingshui County?"

In the Jing Dynasty, after the scholar obtained the meritorious service, the land tax was reduced or reduced.

Therefore, as a result, there were huge amounts of land under the names of the people, and many of them were landlords and gentry who sent the land to their names and were exempt from paying taxes.

The imperial court was not unaware of this problem, but the officials of the imperial court would not betray their class, and even if a few people of insight tried to reform in vain, they were blocked at all levels, and it was difficult to succeed in the end.

"Yes, Master Gao is an old man in Qingshui County."

The sixth said.

Ren Pingsheng nodded: "It's better to follow Master Huang's old practice, continue to hand over a part of the share, and continue to send it to Master Gao." ”
