Su Jin suddenly woke up and gave up the idea of ​​building houses for the tenants.

Let’s just leave it at that, her family’s husband is right, it’s better to teach people to fish than to give them money, it’s better to think of ways to make money for them

"Okay, I'll listen to you!"

Sister-in-law Liu's cooking skills are no worse than those of Sister-in-law Mao's, and the home-cooked dishes are delicious.

Perhaps the advantage is that the raw materials are fresh, and a very delicious dish can be cooked simply by adding oil and salt.

The next day, all the questions that should be asked were asked by Liu Zhuangtou. Seeing that the person Jiang Zhou selected was honest and honest, he was not like that slick one, so he didn't plan to change the head of the village anymore. Still doing it.

The tenants should not be commanded or shouted at will. After the good land is leased to the tenants for planting, everything is up to the tenants, and there is no need to interfere.

Liu Zhuang's heart was completely on the ground, and he kowtowed respectfully.

The two of them didn't ask Liu Zhuangtou to lead them, and walked to the field by themselves, and basically met the tenants after two days.

The tenants selected by Jiang Zhou all looked pretty good. I think so, if those who steal and play tricks are not even qualified to be tenants, who would be willing to rent land to them?

The tenants heard that the host provided farm tools and cattle, and only charged 20% of the annual rent after paying the tax. They could also borrow grain for free during the lean season, and pay it back after the autumn harvest without charging any interest. They all exclaimed with great joy, their faces blushed with gratitude, and they repeatedly praised Mrs. Madam for being such a great person, Guanyin Bodhisattva.

You must know that every year when the harvest is not harvested, many tenants have to tighten their belts to live, and housewives can’t wait to count the grains of rice in the pot when cooking. Going down, there will be a feeling of fright!

Worry!

The poor people who make friends with each other are also poor people. Who has surplus food and is willing to borrow?

There is barely enough food, that is, barely enough, even if you borrow it, you can borrow three to five catties or ten catties at most, and no one can borrow more.

It is already a great favor if the master and wife are willing to borrow it.

What's more, the old man and his wife also gave away the cattle and farm tools for free, which saved a lot of work and money.

If you harvest 10% less rent, you can also harvest one or two hundred catties of rice a year. Don’t underestimate this one or two hundred catties. With this two hundred catties, add some wild vegetables and miscellaneous grains, and you can fool around in a year .

How could the tenants not be delighted?

Su Jin saw a small reed lake next to the farm, with an area of ​​about ten acres, with silt deposits, yellow and decayed reeds strewn about, and only a shallow layer of water, which looked messy.

Su Jin was quite interested. The water in this pond was running water. There were small streams coming from a distance, and the pond water flowed to the distance through the ditches between the fields.

How can a farm be without a pond where fish can be raised and fished, and lotus root can be planted?

After returning to Zhuangzi, Su Jin called Liu Zhuangtou to inquire, does the pond have an owner?

Hearing that Liu Zhuang shook his head and said no, Su Jin was overjoyed and urged him to apply for the land deed and buy it.

After hearing this, Liu Zhuangtou persuaded: "It's a worthless rotten mud pond, with so many messy reeds growing on it, and there are springs in that rotten mud pond, the water is so cold, there is no way to grow good fields and grow crops. Madam, why bother to buy it?"

Su Jin smiled and said, "Who said I'm going to reclaim good land and grow crops? It's for fish ponds. You go and buy them first, and I'll tell you how to do it then!"

Liu Zhuangtou was even more puzzled. He was from a good family and often ate fish, but he usually bought fish and shrimp from clear rivers and streams. The meat of such fish was more tender and delicious. The fish raised in this rotten mud pond, with a The muddy smell of the stock is not good at all.

Seeing that Madam was very interested, and that she was clearly determined to buy it, she stopped persuading her and agreed respectfully.

The lady and the lord don't need money, maybe they just bought it for fishing or boating by the lake in summer. People in the city love novelty, and many ladies like it, he understands.

Liu Zhuangtou wanted to please, and said with a smile: "I heard that the hill at the back of our village is for sale recently. It is about 200 mu. It is said that the owner's house is only sold for 200 mu. I wonder if Mrs. Madam should consider it? There are some small fruit forests, including peaches, plums, persimmons, loquats, pomegranates, dates, and pears, and there are also several clusters of bamboo forests, with fresh bamboo shoots every year!"

Since Mrs. Madam wants to play, there is a pond, and of course there is a mountain. Although soybeans, peanuts, corn and other crops were originally planted on the mountain, if Mrs. Madam likes it, he can also plant fruit trees all over it.

Seeing Su Jin's eyes lit up with great interest, Liu Zhuangtou knew he was on the right track, and his smile became more respectful.

"Oh? Is it the big area behind our Zhuangzi?"

"Ma'am is right, it's really there!"

When Su Jin and Qin Lang went out for a stroll, they also went to that area. Indeed, there was a fruit forest of about five or six acres. There were three or four trees of any kind, and two or three clusters of bamboo were seen.

It is said to be a mountain, but the slope is actually very gentle. There are no crops on it now, and it seems that it will not be cultivated until spring.

It happened to be near my own Zhuangzi, so of course it would be nice to buy it.

Su Jin looked at Qin Lang, and Qin Lang said: "If this is the case, let's buy it too. Who is the owner of that piece of land? Why sell it?"

Liu Zhuangtou smiled, and said gossipingly: "The owner of that land is named Min, who is the first big family in Fancheng. That family has been in trouble recently, so Mr. Min took him back to the outer room of the mansion to fight with Mrs. Min. People are turned on their backs, chickens are flying like dogs, and the young master of the Min family is—cough cough, in short, he made a joke and lost face. There are also many problems in the business of the Min family. Huh? It’s all sold! Some people say that their family is short of money now, and they’re going to sell it to plug the hole, and maybe even the farm will be sold after a while.”

Su Jin and Qin Lang looked at each other, and burst out laughing "Puchi", this is the reunion of mountains and rivers!

I didn't expect it to be the Min family!

Then you have to buy it! Otherwise, the land of Min's family is behind his own Zhuangzi, and it feels strange to think about it.

"Buy it! In addition, you keep an eye on the farm of the Min family. If there is any rumor that the Min family wants to sell it, buy it quickly. Ask Jiang Zhou about the silver."

"Yes, yes," Liu Zhuangtou nodded with a smile, and took the initiative to introduce: "The Min family's farm is only about three miles away from ours, and it takes less than a quarter of an hour to arrive. I heard that there are at least three hundred acres of good quality What about fertile land! There is also a large piece of dry land, where all kinds of vegetables, soybeans, peanuts, corn, etc. grow very well, and that land is much fatter than the land behind our village!"
