Chapter 94 Rukawa City

Country of Wind, Rukawa County.

In midsummer, there was just a light rain in the morning. Although the sun has cleared now, the path in the field is still very slippery. The crops in the fields on both sides have been washed by the rain into a glittering appearance, and there is a fresh and moist smell in the air. fragrance.

The remaining raindrops either rolled down the stems of the grass, or burrowed into the soil or into the mouth of the grass, but could not be found.

All kinds of wild flowers are also in bloom, like brilliant spots embroidered on a large green carpet, and swarms of bees are busy among the flowers, sucking the stamen juice hard.

And the farmers in Ruchuan County also came out early with their hoes on their backs, carefully distributing the prepared natural fertilizers on the crops and vegetables.

On a raised field ridge, if weeds were found growing, the farmers would lean over and pull them up, and then throw them aside.

Seeing the green fields full of vitality, farmers showed smiles on their faces.

"Jian, are you done?"

"Come to my house for a drink after work?"

"The sun is slowly getting hotter, so we can't stay there for too long!"

A shirtless farmer yelled.

"no problem!"

"I'll be fine soon!"

A farmer dressed in plain linen beside him agreed. He was wielding his hoe vigorously, digging up pieces of soil and covering the gaps washed by the rain in the field ridges.

Not long after, two farmers straddled the floor in a fairly spacious wooden house.

The dark-skinned farmer in sackcloth held a porcelain bowl in his hand very carefully. There was a cloudy white liquid in the bowl. This liquid seemed to be a treasure to the farmer in sackcloth.

He held the bowl to his mouth very slowly, and after finding a good angle, he swallowed it gurglingly, for fear of spilling a drop.

"what!"

"Good wine!"

"It's still your wine that is exciting!"

After drinking the bowl of wine in one gulp, the sackclothed farmer praised loudly.

When two blushes hung on his cheeks, the farmer in sackcloth seemed to have started talking.

"Datian! You have to be capable!"

"We've only just been able to eat enough, and you can drink wine!"

The bare-armed farmer wiped off the remaining liquor from the corner of his mouth, and said with some shame: "How can I do this!"

"It's my brother. He went out to do business and made some money by luck. That's why he brought a lot of wine every time he went home to visit."

Speaking of his brother, the bare-armed farmer still had a proud face on his face.

"Business? What business do you do? Make money like this?" The sackclothed farmer became interested when he heard it.

"It's not a great business either. He found a carriage and bought the surplus vegetables from farmers in our villages every day, and then took them to towns to sell."

"The ninjas from Sand Hidden Village recently built a Rukawa City here!"

"Wow! You don't know, listen to my brother, you may not believe the speed at which the ninjas built the city. It's like building an extra city on the plain overnight!"

"It's as if ghosts and gods carried it from somewhere!"

"The streets in the city are very neatly planned, and there are electric lights! Do you know what an electric light is?"

The naked farmer saliva splashed all over, and the sackclothed farmer was stunned for a while.

Seeing that the bare-armed farmer stopped suddenly, the sackclothed farmer hurriedly urged: "Hurry up and continue..."

At this time, the bare-armed farmer grabbed the wine jar with some embarrassment, and poured wine for the sackclothed farmer.

"I've never seen an electric light before, but I just heard from my brother that even at night, Ruchuan City is as bright as daytime, everywhere is bright!"

The sackclothed farmer's eyes were full of longing, and he was not even in a hurry to drink the wine in the bowl.

"I can also collect vegetables. I know all the vegetables...how about we go into business with your brother?"

"If you earn more money, you can go to Liuchuan City to see and see..."

The sackcloth farmer said excitedly.

"Ha ha……"

"I've thought about your idea a long time ago, but it's useless for you to know vegetables!"

"You have to be able to count! And you can't even recognize the new banknotes issued by Shayin Village, how can you count money?"

"And how much to charge for the food, how much to sell it, where to sell it... This is not a simple matter, and my brother is not the only one who sells it in Ruchuan City."

"It's the ability to sell it. If it can't be sold, many dishes will wither in a day."

"Those people in the city like to eat fresh and green vegetables, unlike us rough people..."

"It's just that those of us who don't even know what a word is when the shoulder poles are upside down, it's better not to join in the fun..."

The bare-armed farmer drank the wine on the table again, and said openly.

"Now our tax rate is also low, 15% is [-]%!"

"Besides, Shayin Village has exempted mediocrity (forced labor) and transfer (handy labor), leaving only one field rent."

"Pay as many fields as you have, no tax increase no matter how many people you have!"

"They are much better than the black-hearted guys in the Daming Mansion before..."

The bare-armed farmer said with emotion.

The sackclothed farmer nodded slightly when he heard this, and then continued to sip the wine in the porcelain bowl in small sips.

"Yep!"

"My brother came back with a message last time!"

"Sha Yin Village built a ninja school in Rukawa City."

"All children between the ages of five and nine, regardless of gender, can enter the school without examination!"

"All expenses during the school period are contracted by Shayin Village, and jobs can also be assigned after graduation."

"If you have good qualifications, you may even become a ninja!"

When the shirtless farmer mentioned this, his tone became agitated.

"You don't know how capable those ninjas are. I just passed by once when they were building a dam and diverting the river."

"They fiddled with their hands a few times... and then... tsk tsk tsk..."

The bare-armed farmer also imitated the pattern of "making seals", but the effect of his hands gesturing indiscriminately is naturally very funny.

It's like when the second-year teenagers were learning the water dragon ball seals in front of the TV, they didn't notice the left and right hand gestures reversed, and clamored that if they hadn't forgotten the mirror image, their school would have been flooded by water dragon balls long ago.

"Who doesn't know that your dog breeder is the most prosperous in the whole village, and your son is pregnant again recently?"

"It's not easy to feed the seven or eight mouths that are waiting to be fed?"

"Except for the eldest and the last three in your family, all other ages are eligible!"

"Why don't you send them all out too?"

The shirtless farmer continued to persuade.

"Shayin Village has registered the fields of each of our households, prohibiting the sale of land, and will take it back to the state for redistribution after 70 years..."

"Can you feed so many people with this little land like yours?"

"And you also have to think about your descendants. If they don't have any skills, how will they survive in the future?"

The bare-armed farmer picked up the wine jug again as he spoke, and poured wine into the sackclothed farmer's bowl.
