Chapter 31: The Rise of the Murong Family for a Hundred Generations (Part I)

The Murong family used to be a super family in this world.

At first, Murong De was just an ordinary farmer, and when he took over the family business, he was only in his early twenties, and his father only left more than 100 silver dollars and five acres of arable land.

He carried on his father's legacy and continued farming.

First, he bought three acres of arable land for more than a hundred silver dollars.

Eight acres of land, in the first year, more than 3,000 catties of grain were produced, more than 2,000 catties were sold, 100 catties of grain was one stone, more than 20 stones of grain, and more than 20 silver dollars were sold.

The second year there was a drought, the third year the harvest was bad, and it was not until the sixth year that the money was saved to buy the ninth acre of arable land.

Murong De got married in his thirties, and less than three years after getting married, Murong De used the money to buy ten acres of cultivated land to buy an old cloth machine, and then lived a life of male cultivators and female weavers.

It wasn't until Murong De was fifty-three years old that he had a serious illness, and when he died, he left behind thirteen acres of arable land and less than ten silver dollars, and Murong Qiang, the third generation of the Murong family, continued the family business.

When Murong Qiang, the son of the third generation of Murong De, got married at the age of twenty-eight, his family already had fifteen acres of arable land, and he felt that it was difficult for him to cultivate fifteen acres with his hands, so he began to hire long-term labor, and the manpower in the countryside was cheap, but Murong Qiang still worked very hard, but as long as he did not encounter natural disasters, he would have a certain surplus, and the cloth woven by his wife every year would be used at home in addition to his own use, and the excess would be sold in the city.

This cycle lasted until the thirty-sixth generation of the Murong family, when Murong Di took over the family business, and at that time, the family already had hundreds of acres of fertile land.

The Murong family has an ancestral motto, which can only give birth to one man per generation, in case brothers fight each other and consume the family business, plus there is no catastrophe, so it has been a smooth life.

No matter where or what era it is, the most unmarketable commodity in the world is food.

100 acres of fertile land, the annual grain output is tens of thousands of catties.

More than 100 stone grains, each stone can be sold for about a silver dollar, after Murong Di took over the family business, he began to expand on a large scale, and by the time Murong Di breathed, the family's cultivated land already had nearly 200 acres of fertile land.

After several more generations, until the forty-second generation, the Murong family already owned 400 acres of fertile land and was a well-known local landowner.

The forty-second generation of Murong Longcheng already has the financial resources to buy Qi Dispersion, he is ambitious, and has made friends with county officials, therefore, he uses illegal means, coercion and temptation, oppression of the weak, and conspire to abduct and deceive, in only thirty years, the Murong family's 400 acres of fertile land has become more than 800 acres, and he has also accumulated nearly a thousand gold coins, and he himself has cultivated to a half-step golden pill.

Since then, the Murong family has embarked on the path of cultivation.

After the death of Murong Longcheng, Murong Ziyu began his generation.

If Murong Dragon City brought the Murong family into the cultivation path, then Murong Ziyu was the cultivation path of the Murong family that was consolidated.

While cultivating, the Murong family still did not forget to expand their economic strength, and in the following generations, the people of the Murong family had a certain talent for cultivation, and with a certain ability to protect themselves, the Murong family began to enter the city to develop.
