Space Lingquan: The Boss of the Last Days Dressed as a Peasant Girl

Chapter 32 The Eve of Flowers Blooming

After they became familiar with it on Friday, Butler Zhang arranged for people to go to the fields to check, but they were not as diligent as before. On Friday, he saw that many flowers seemed to be blooming in the past two days, so he came to ask Nan Yan what to do next.

Nan Yan calculated the time, the roses and tulips would bloom within half a month.

She originally wanted to let them pick the flowers and send them to her on Friday.

Then I felt something was wrong and decided to go there myself.

Nan Yan went to Shanghe Village, looked at the flowers in the field and said to Wu Wu: "On Friday, go and call the other families to my home. I have something to tell you."

: "Yes, Miss Nan, I'll go right away." Zhou Wu knew which families Nan Yan was referring to and quickly gathered these people together.

Nan Yan, who was in the field, brought the new "Zisu" and housekeeper to her home.

Nan Yan glanced at everyone, sat at the front seat, and said slowly: "During this period, everyone has taken good care of the flowers in the field. Now some flowers will bloom soon. This is what I plan to do.

After everyone collects the roses and tulips, I will lease the roses and tulips to you for the first season, and I will also collect the chrysanthemums, peonies, and jasmines for you once every season."

The flowers bloomed at different times, so she could only ask everyone to collect the flowers and then count the money for them.

When Friday waited for someone to hear that they had income so quickly, several tenant farmers rubbed their hands and asked in embarrassment, "Ms. Nan, how do we calculate our tenant rent?"

They are worried that flowers are not food. They can estimate the price of food, but they cannot predict the price of flowers.

Nan Yan herself is also calculating how much rent to give them.

She only now owns one hundred acres of land, and in addition to planting a large number of roses on this land, she also grows other flowers such as chrysanthemums, peonies... and so on.

On Friday, apart from Zhou Xiao's own family, who only cultivated ten acres of land, the other tenant households were able to cultivate twenty acres of land each.

Nan Yan measured the number of kilograms of flowers collected in the field and said: "Pick the flowers and I will give them to you at thirty yuan per kilogram. Like the first batch of roses in the field, each of your families can collect at least one to two hundred kilograms. In this way

If you cultivate a batch of flowers, you can earn three to five taels of silver."

In fact, they never expected to get so much money on Friday, and now they were shocked by the amount Nan Yan said.

Friday stumbled and said: "Nan...Ms. Nan...means, let's...pick...the flowers. Nan...Nan...Ms. Nan, give us...us...30 dollars...

One pound."

Nan Yan smiled and nodded, saying: "Yes, because the land is mine and I have to pay the tax. Now I can only give you this price."

In fact, she was also worried. The roses only bloomed once a year, and they relied on farming the land for food on Fridays. If she gave them too little, they would only have three or four taels of silver a year, and these people were afraid that they would live the same life as Mei Lan's previous family.

Finally, think about it.

Forget it, these people are fooling around with her, and the price is so high!

For such a price, you should treat it as a purchase of loyalty.

There are also roses that bloom once a year. If she wants to harvest flowers repeatedly, she will have to cultivate them again before the flowers bloom.

She only has a little bit of land in her hands, so she can't meet her previous budget.

Nan Yan thought that there were a lot of barren hills and undeveloped land. She had gone to the land purchase office and told her that one acre of barren land only cost 500 to 800 cents.

If it didn't work out, she bought hundreds of acres of wasteland and mountains and planted them all with flowers.

Nan Yan went to the fields today and could already smell the fragrance of flowers. If the mountains and fields were filled with flowers and the fragrance of flowers was blooming, the smell and scene would be simply amazing.

Nan Yan and Wu Wu agreed on the tenancy, and then said: "Friday... you guys, if I still have land for you to cultivate behind me, you can come over."

I just calculated the price given by Nan Yan on Friday.

He calculated that there were not only roses but also other flowers in the field. If the price of each flower was calculated, he would earn at least twenty taels of silver every year.

Oh my god, that’s twenty taels of silver!

In the past, we rented land to grow grain. After collecting grain and paying taxes for a year, the family barely managed to avoid starvation. We never thought we would have so much grain or money.

After listening to Nan Yan on Friday saying whether they could be busy if Nan Yan had other land in her hands, Friday planned her family's population and said without thinking: "Nan, Miss Nan, our family has a relatively large population. If Nan...

Miss Nan...has other land in her hands, and our brothers can rent twenty or thirty acres."

"Yes, Miss Nan, we have a large family. If Miss Nan still has land, we brothers can rent a few acres," Zhou Da, the eldest brother, said on Friday.

There were not many types of cattle in the Xia Dynasty, and the Friday family wanted to continue renting land. They were afraid that if they had more men, they would become cattle.

Of course, this is something.

After picking roses from the ground, you don't need to take special care of them. You can occasionally loosen the soil and water them to prevent them from dying.

So Nan Yan said: "I don't have the land yet, but I plan to reclaim the wasteland and plant it with flowers. If any of you want to rent it, go to the housekeeper and report the number of acres to the housekeeper."

Several tenants with a large population want to rent more land, but they don't know how many acres of wasteland Nan Yan wants to buy. They don't know how much to rent!

Nan Yan didn't wait for anyone to ask, and said: "I plan to buy a lot of wasteland, so don't worry, everyone can report the number of acres needed."

With Nan Yan's words, four families soon signed up, and only Aunt Lanhua sat in her seat.

Nan Yan waited for Friday and others to report the number of acres they wanted. She told everyone that when the time comes, someone would be arranged to teach them how to flower, and everyone on Friday would go back to their homes.

Nan Yan asked the housekeeper to send Wu Wu and others away. She took the housekeeper and handed them the registration form. At first glance, she felt that these people were quite self-aware.

The largest number of acres of land reported belongs to Wu's family, and they have to rent twenty acres of wasteland.

The other three families only rent ten acres each, and everyone rents the land based on their own labor force.

Nan Yan did not stay in the village this time, but chose to return to the city to continue working.

She just walked out of the house and saw Zhou Yue and Zhou Fang coming to her door.

When Zhou Fang heard that Nan Yan had returned to the village, she hurriedly asked her third brother, who was at home today, to come to Nan Yan's house to see Nan Yan.

But as soon as the brother and sister arrived at the door, Nan Yan came out of the house.

Zhou Fang jumped up to Nan Yan as before, took Nan Yan's hand affectionately, and said: "Sister Yan'er, why did you just go back to the village? You were away some time ago, and I didn't have any playmates to play with."

Nan Yan and Zhou Fang only got along for more than half a month.

The relationship between the two of them is not as close as that of He Sanniang.

Now I was suddenly pulled over by Zhou Fang, and I felt unnatural and stunned for a moment.

But she quickly regained her composure and said, "You girl, even if I am not in the village, do you still have few playmates?"

She knew that there were many young girls in the village, and Zhou Fang was an out-of-the-box girl. Even if she was not in the village, Zhou Fang would not be lonely.

Zhou Fang shook Nan Yan's hand and said: "They are different from sister Yan'er."

Zhou Yue looked at his coquettish sister and said helplessly: "Fangfang, let go of Miss Nan's hand first." Then he said to Nan Yan: "Miss Nan, do you want to go out?"

Nan Yan heard Zhou Yue's words and said, "Yes, I'm done with things here and I'm going back to the city."
