After the Mid-Autumn Festival, the crops in the field began to be fully harvested.

It's just that this year's harvest in the field is indeed worse than in previous years, not a star and a half.

Moreover, during the autumn harvest, the county officials announced from village to village that the tax would be increased after this year's autumn harvest.

"Damn, this is too ruthless, sixty percent tax, crazy, isn't this?"

Mei Youqian didn't dare to say this outside, after listening to the news of this year's autumn harvest and taxation outside, he insisted on returning home, and after collecting the food that he had been busy for several months, he calculated it again, and finally couldn't help but be angry.

"He will collect 60 catties of tax for 100 catties of grain, this is really not treating people as people! In the past, I thought it was expensive to smoke forty percent, but now it's better, more ruthless! ”

After paying all taxes, the rest of the food - hey!

After planting the land for a year, the grain he has fished up at the end of the year is not as much as he has eaten in the past few months!

The key is also posted with his own great strength, how can Mei Youqian think about it!

"Why is this poorer and more oppressive?"

Listening to her husband finish settling the accounts, Wei Meili also frowned.

With the amount of food they eat, if it weren't for the system rewards and the rice and noodles they bought with the money they earned, I am afraid they would have starved to death a long time ago.

"Buy as much as you can, buy more food, and buy more food, and you have to buy it when the price rises. I'm afraid that when the time comes next year, we won't be able to buy it with silver. ”

This year, Yunzhou has failed to harvest grain for two seasons in a row, this is not their nonsense, this is what the little officials who came to collect taxes said before.

In addition, the plum berries know that there will be a catastrophe next year, so the transportation here is not as convenient as in later generations.

A failure in a state and an increase in overall food prices are inevitable.

But the non-collection also increased the tax, which really opened the eyes of the Meiberry family.

"Isn't this just like in the TV series, what kind of uprising?"

Although it is a leopard in the tube, Mei Youqian's statement does make the Meiberry family feel agreed.

The second time I bought grain, I was familiar with the road.

However, this time the price of food has indeed risen sharply compared to the last time.

They spent nearly four hundred taels of silver on plum berries, and then they bought another two thousand catties of grain.

Food prices have nearly doubled.

Their family bought so much, and the shopkeeper of the grain store couldn't help but ask where the "owner" of the plum berries was.

How can anyone go to a place where food is expensive to buy food?

Who is still in business?

Even when he looked at Mei Youqian, his eyes were filled with a touch of sympathy.

With this kind of unjust master, what good end can it be?

I don't know what the other party's shopkeeper is making up in his brain, after buying the food, they just feel that the money is hard to earn and the food is delicious!

Eating is the first productive force to make money.

It is estimated that God heard their stressful voices, and one morning in late autumn, the guys from Jiubaoxuan, who had not been seen for a long time, finally came, and specially asked Aunt Meiberry to teach knitting sweaters.

"Do you have a place for teaching or something? If you come here, there are a lot of people, and our place is small, so we can't show it. ”

Hearing that Jiubaoxuan had sent 20 people to study, Wei Meili glanced back at her yard, where there were not only chickens, rabbits, mules and sheep, but also a bunch of food.

What corn, peanuts, and persimmons picked by Miao a few days ago are made into dried persimmons and persimmons.

If so many people come suddenly, there is nowhere to put their feet.

The guy's eyes glanced inside slightly, and he understood what Wei Meili meant.

He smiled knowingly and said, "Don't worry, madam, you can go to the town of Lihu Town, there is a courtyard arranged by us for you to teach."

It's women who learn this, and you don't have to worry about it, ma'am. Our host said that during the period when you taught them to knit sweaters, food, drink and lodging were all counted as ours, and there was a sum of money to be paid afterwards. ”

"Gee, that's embarrassing."

As soon as she heard that the arrangement was clear, the smile on Wei Meimei's face was even more enthusiastic.

Immediately afterwards, she said: "But the effect of learning too many sweaters is not good, and I can't guide it." Well, I'll talk to my third sibling, and she'll knit sweaters too.

If she is willing, the two of us will guide together at that time, and we can be regarded as a companion, and we can teach them as soon as possible. ”

Wei Meimei's proposal was agreed to by the other party, and said that she would come to pick up someone early tomorrow morning.

Wei Meili also smiled and nodded, until as soon as the other party left, the expression on Wei Meili's face immediately became a little playful.

Mei Berry watched her mother's whole conversation from the side just now, and when she saw her mother and the others leaving, her face suddenly changed, and she thought that her mother had noticed something wrong, so she couldn't help but care curiously.

"Don't you think this guy agreed casually? One more person, one more repair money.

We don't know how much money this guy makes a month, and he directly helps the owner or the steward to agree, and he is not afraid that the people above will not agree?

I see, he's probably not a simple guy~"

"Maybe the proprietor is generous and doesn't care about the silver?"

Mei Berry felt that Wang Beigu was really refreshing when he talked about business.

Although sometimes the scrutinizing gaze in the process of talking makes people feel a little scared, but once the negotiation is completed, it is extremely refreshing whether they cooperate or give money.

"Really?"

Wei Mei looked at Mei Berry with a smile.

My daughter has no social experience, and she hasn't been beaten by society, so her nerves are still relatively thick in some aspects.

She was not in a hurry to break it, seeing that she looked thoughtful, she simply went out to Mei You's house and told Miao about it.

Don't look at Miao's timid and cautious appearance on weekdays, but for the things mentioned by Wei Meimei, they are generally responsive and confident!

directly agreed to go with Wei Meili.

"Aren't you afraid I'll lie to you?"

"What did my sister-in-law lie to me? This craft is also taught by you, sister-in-law.

And this business, I heard from Youyou, and your family also took us together, my sister-in-law is in need, and I have nothing to shirk. ”

Miao is now speaking more and more openly, although his voice is still so loud, but it has improved too much.

Seeing this, Wei Meili told her to go to the county early tomorrow morning, and if she was not at ease, let the two men follow her on the first day of tomorrow.

So, that night, Wei Meili made a lot of food for her father and daughter, who were more unpalatable than the other.

Looking at her mother's reaction, Mei Berry still doesn't know if her mother really plans to come back after teaching?

Obviously, the town is not far from here, and there are mules and cubs "special car pick-up", but she doesn't, there is a feeling of "abandoning her husband and daughter" and taking her little sister out to wave.

"If you can provide a dormitory for couples, I want to ...... too."

Compared to Mei Berry, who was a little reluctant in his heart, her father was thick-skinned, and asked her mother directly about this topic, listening to Wei Mei's beautiful old face flushed, and almost slapped him in the face.

Plum berry almost died of laughter when she looked at it.

Probably not wanting to be laughed at by Mei Berry, Wei Meili asked Mei Berry to take a pen and paper to list what the father and daughter were going to do when she was not at home.

Sowing winter wheat, eating in the sun, trimming the vegetable garden, going up the mountain to prepare firewood for the winter......

In the end, Mei Berry looked at the paper full of things that the two of them had to do, including a piece of cleaning at night, feeding chickens, rabbits, sheep and other odd and miscellaneous tasks.

Looking at Mei Berry and Mei Youqian looking at the work on the paper and their jaws were about to fall off the ground, Wei Meili laughed heartily and said: "Hard work is something that can't be stopped for a day!" ”

Wei Meili: Get up and work for me!!
