The Female Officer Became a Farmer After Getting Reborn

Li Yu and Zhou Jia went to the blacksmith shop where the spinning wheel was ordered last time. Zhou Jia handed the drawing to the blacksmith, "Master Xu, can you see if you can make it?"

Tiejiang Xu looked at the drawings and pondered for a while, "Yes, I just need to give me some time to think about it. And Mr. Zhou, if you only make one of these things, the price will be a bit expensive."

"Just make it before harvesting. Make ten of them first. Calculate how much money it will cost." Zhou Jia looked at him and said.

Blacksmith Xu lowered his head and estimated for a while, "Ten units will cost you at least three hundred and forty taels."

Zhou Jia nodded, "Yes, Master Xu, we'd better sign a contract. You must promise not to leak these things out without our consent."

Tiejiang Xu patted his chest and assured: "Mr. Zhou, don't worry, we have rules. Any custom-made items will never be spread without the consent of the owner. If you are worried, we will sign a contract."

Zhou Jia smiled and said, "We should be villains first and gentlemen later."

"Then please write the pen and I'll sign it." Blacksmith Xu said with a smile.

The two signed the contract, Zhou Jia paid the deposit, and customized a needle comb, drawbar, and spinning wheel. Blacksmith Xu happily sent Zhou Jia and Li Yu out of the blacksmith shop.

Zhang Defa walked through the Xu family's blacksmith shop carrying a basket of goods. He put down the goods and came out with the copper plates. When he saw Li Yu and Zhou Jia coming out of the blacksmith shop, he quickly hid in the corner and peeked at the two people. Only Li Yu saw them. Wearing a pink cross-collar skirt, Zhou Xiucai wore a dark gown. The two walked towards the mule cart at the door chatting and laughing happily.

Zhang Defa looked at Li Yu and Li Yu jealously and thought: They have also arrived in Tongzhou and they seem to be doing well. Zhang Defa watched Li Yu and Zhou Jia get on the mule cart and drive away. He quickly came out of the corner, glanced at the mule cart going away, walked into the blacksmith shop and asked: "Boss, let me ask if the two people just came from Qingzhou? Where do they live now?"

Xu Tiejiang looked at Zhang Defa coldly, "Who are you? What do you want to know about them?"

Zhang Defa said with a salivating smile: "I also escaped from Qingzhou Prefecture. I saw that the girl seemed to be the daughter of a relative of mine, but I didn't dare to step forward and recognize her, so I came to ask you. "

Xu Tiejiang pondered for a moment, "I can only tell you that they did come from Qingzhou, but I can't tell you where they live. You can leave!"

Zhang Defa knew from the look on his boss's face that nothing could be found out, so he had no choice but to leave in frustration.

Zhou Jia took Li Yu to the seed shop and pointed to the shop in front of him, "Yu'er, this is the largest seed shop in Tongzhou. Let's go to his house first."

Li Yu looked up and saw the signboard that read "Wang Ji Seed Encyclopedia" and walked into the shop. He saw that the wooden box placed in the middle of the shop was filled with various seeds.

The waiter greeted them politely and asked them with a smile, "What seeds do you two need?"

Li Yu walked to the wooden boxes and pointed to several kinds of seeds, "Grain seeds, bean seeds, vegetable seeds, all of them."

The clerk pointed at the rice seeds and introduced them enthusiastically, "These are the seeds that just arrived. You see, the seeds are full and the germination will be good."

Li Yu saw that there was only one kind of rice, and asked doubtfully: "Is this the only kind of rice?"

The waiter smiled and nodded, "There is only one type of rice except Nuogu and Rice. There are no other varieties."

Li Yu grabbed a handful of grain seeds and looked at them for a while, "How much does it cost per pound?"

"Fifteen cents a pound." The waiter smiled.

Li Yu said to the waiter: "Go and ask your shopkeeper how much discount you can get for large quantities."

"Okay, please wait a moment." After a while, the waiter came over with a thin old man. The old man glanced at Li Yu and Zhou Jia, and asked with a smile: "How many seeds does the girl need?"

Li Yumo calculated, "One hundred stones."

The old man was startled after hearing this, "So many? Did you just raise the wasteland?"

"Yes, if your price is right, I will buy all the grain seeds and other seeds in Zhuangzi from you." Li Yu said with a smile.

The old man thought for a moment and said, "Girl, you know that rice seeds are carefully selected. The price is a bit more expensive, but the quantity you buy is large. Even if you buy thirteen cents per pound, it can't be less."

"I'll pay you a deposit first, and you can help me deliver the seeds to Fengming Village, Fengming Town. After inspecting the goods, we will settle the remaining money."

"Okay, please choose the other seeds first and send them to you together."

Li Yu bought various bean seeds, vegetable seeds, and some alfalfa seeds. He paid a deposit of ten taels, left his address, and took the receipt. The two of them walked out of the seed shop and walked into the shop.

Along the road, he saw some ragged children begging with broken bowls. Li Yu asked Zhou Jia in a low voice, "Are there many children begging outside?"

Zhou Jia nodded, "There are also temples outside the city. The good-looking people are bought to be servants or other things. These beggars are controlled by the beggar leader. Yu'er, do you want to take in these children? ?”

Li Yu shook his head, "These people have mixed qualities. If they get into trouble, they will get into trouble. We'd better go to the tooth shop and buy some old and weak people who are innocent and take them home."

Zhou Jia looked at Li Yu with admiration and said, "Okay, let's go to Yaxing now."

When the two of them arrived at Yahang, Na Po laughed when she saw Zhou Jia, "Oh! Mr. Zhou, please come in quickly."

Po Po welcomed the two into the courtyard with a smile on her face, "Mr. Zhou, how many servants do you want to do this time?"

"Buy a few rough servants. It doesn't matter what age they are. They must be honest and responsible." Zhou Jia said to Ya Po.

Yapo smiled so hard that she couldn't close her mouth, "Okay, wait until I call you out to show you two."

Ya Po went back to the house and brought out more than a dozen people. Li Yu saw that men, women, old and young all looked disheveled, and their expressions were dull. Ya Po shouted to them: "Stand up, let the young master take a look."

At this time, an old man pulled a stout girl to kneel on the ground and kowtowed to Zhou Jia, "Sir, please do me a favor and buy my granddaughter! She is very strong and can work neatly. Don't ask for leave." As long as I can have something to eat, that’s fine.”

The girl retreated behind the old man and said, "Grandpa, if I don't go, I want to stay with you."

Li Yu walked forward and squatted down to look at her and said, "Follow me, and I'll feed you."

The girl's eyes lit up when she heard that she had a full meal, but she still shook her head, "I won't leave, I want to stay with my grandfather."

After hearing this, Po Po shouted: "Er Ya, it's hard to find someone who doesn't mind you eating too much. If you don't want to, let me go. I can't afford to support you."

Erya looked at her grandmother and begged: "Grandma, my grandfather will starve to death if I don't follow him when he is old."

"It's not up to you to choose. Your grandfather and grandson have been here for more than two months, and no one wants them. I'm not a charity."

Li Yu stood up and said to Na Po: "I want them both."

"Really, that's a good feeling, Erya, why don't you thank this girl quickly." Ya Po laughed happily.

Erya and his grandson were about to kowtow happily again, but Li Yu stretched out his hand to stop them, "No need to kowtow, just do good things in the future."

Li Yu selected a few relatively healthy old and young people from among those people, including two thin boys, three women and an old man. After calculating the money, only a dozen old and weak people spent the money. Forty or fifty taels of silver, Li Yu sighed in his heart: In this world, people are not as valuable as a cow.

Zhou Jia and Ya Po went to get the legal status. The two of them took a few people back and bought them cotton-padded clothes and shoes before taking them back to Osmanthus Alley.

The cook cooked some food for them to eat, then took them to the bathroom to wash up and put on cotton clothes. She brought them over and said to Li Yu: "Girl, let them change and wash."

A dozen people looked at Li Yu with tears in his eyes.

Li Yu nodded and looked at Zhou Jia, "Let's go back now! The seed shop still needs to send seeds back."

Zhou Jia nodded and went out to park the car. The two of them took Erya and the others back to Fengming Village.
