The pension plan of the ancient cannon fodder woman

The group first came to Dali's house, and Wang Bin went up and knocked on the door.

The person who came to open the door was a dark-skinned little girl.

"Big girl, where are your father and uncle?"

The little girl, with sparse hair on her head, looked at the person who came timidly.

"Dad is out chopping wood, and my uncle is cooking."

"Who are you talking to, girl?"

Erli was cooking porridge in the kitchen. He came out quickly when he heard the noise.

"Erli, it's me. My cousin wants to find someone to help with farming. Did your family rent the land from the landlord this year?"

When Su He heard his cousin mention him, he nodded politely to the visitor.

"Not yet. Last year we rented five acres of land, which was not enough to feed us. We haven't rented any this year."

Erlijian is from his own village and speaks directly.

"I'm looking for tenants. I'll give them 50% of their food after deducting taxes. I wonder if your family is willing to do that?"

Su He simply raised the remuneration. She had no shortage of food and did not want to squeeze money out of the poor.

"Fifty percent!"

Even Wang Bin was surprised. It was 20% higher than that of the landlord.

“We rent!”

Su He heard a voice behind him and turned to look.

The man at the door was wearing a brown cotton coat, carrying a mountain of firewood on his back and holding a rabbit in his hand.

"Daddy!"

"Big brother."

Wang Dali nodded towards Su He, put the firewood at the door, and picked up his daughter.

"Binzi, is your family looking for a tenant?"

"Brother Dali, my cousin is looking for someone. The village chief said your family might want to rent it, so we came to ask."

"I have 15 acres. I wonder how many acres you can rent?"

Su He asked directly about the result.

“We took over 7 acres of land.”

Dali gritted his teeth. If he and his brother had not gone up the mountain to hunt from time to time last year, the whole family would have starved to death. This time, it was a rare opportunity and he must seize it.

Erli opened his mouth to say something, but when he looked at his skinny niece and his bedridden grandmother, he couldn't bear to refuse.

Su He nodded, "Okay, I have a mule at home, you can use it when the time comes."

When they heard about the mule, the two brothers breathed a sigh of relief. Working these seven acres of land was not so tiring anymore.

"By the way, my family is going to build a house first, before the spring ploughing. If you are free, you can come and help. It's 15 cents a day, including three meals a day. The food is average, but it's enough to fill you up."

Su He suddenly thought of recruiting people as well. Building houses and farming do not conflict with each other, so he might as well recruit the same group of people to see how they do the work. If they are good, they can form long-term cooperation.

"We're free! We'll all go. When will you need someone?"

Erli's eyes were filled with anticipation. He must seize the good job right next to his home.

"About ten days. If you confirm, I'll add it. I'll let you know when the time comes."

After the two parties reached an agreement, Su He and the other two said goodbye quickly.

"Brother, then we won't go on business trips this year?"

Erli and the others left before he asked his eldest brother. The two brothers had originally found a way to go out and do business. Dali had done this job in his early years and earned a lot of money, but the risks were also high. Dali stopped doing it after five years. With the money he saved, he found a wife and started a family to support his younger brother and grandmother. He also bought a few acres of land. However, his wife fell ill and he had to sell all the land.

Once back to before liberation.

"No, since we can have enough food if we stay here, let's not take risks. Let's plant the land for a year first."

Dali is aware that he has elderly parents and young children to support, and if he wasn't desperate, no one would want to earn this much money.

Su He didn't know yet that hiring a tenant had avoided a tragedy.

They have already entered Goudan's house.

One, two, three, four, five.

Five snotty-nosed radish heads.

Su He looked at the thatched huts and realized that each one was poorer than the last.

"Binzi, are you saying that your family will give 50% of the food to the tenants?"

"Yes, my cousin's Lotus Flower Move, do you want to rent it?"

Su He also nodded.

Grandpa Goudan smiled happily with his toothless mouth, "Rent, Lotus, how many acres of land can you rent?"

"There are still eight acres of land left. Can you rent it?"

Su He didn't know much about this family. He only saw five slugs and an old man, and was worried that they didn't have the energy to do it.

"Yes, 10 acres of land will do. Don't worry, Lotus. I will take good care of these eight acres of land for you."

"Don't underestimate my boys. Five of them can cultivate three acres of land. With their parents around, we can definitely handle the eight acres."

Su He looked at these people who were not much better than beggars, but he still couldn't bear to refuse them.

"Okay, I'll rent it to you first. This is Shunzi. I'll let him tell you if I have any questions in the future. Grandpa Goudan, I won't bother you anymore."

Shunzi greeted them, and they didn't stay long. They agreed on a time and went home.

The three of them returned just in time for lunch.

Su He was sitting on the kang eating steamed buns, thinking that Goudan's house didn't even have a kitchen. There was just a fire made of stones and a broken iron pot. When they went there, wild vegetables were being cooked in the pot. Su He glanced several times but couldn't find a grain of rice.

No wonder the village chief wanted to introduce this family, they are so miserable.

"Aunt, Goudan's family is the poorest in the village, right?"

Zhou shook her head. "No way. The poorest ones all starved to death. Their family wasn't that poor to begin with. It's just that Goudan's mother was too fertile. She gave birth to at least one baby every year, and they were all boys. They just ate themselves into poverty."

"Is Goudan the boss? What are the names of the others?"

Su He was too embarrassed to ask in someone else's home, so she started gossiping.

"Dog eggs, chicken eggs, duck eggs, goose eggs, cow eggs."

Su He couldn't help but give a thumbs up. All the eggs in the village were from their family.

I hope their family can eat all the eggs in the future.

"Lotus, you've found a tenant, what are you going to plant?"

"I have already ordered seeds for 5 mu of wheat, corn, soybeans and sweet potatoes, and I will borrow 10 mu from my aunt. I will pay her back later."

Su He thought about it and decided not to try any new tricks for the time being. If she only used seeds from this dynasty, the yield would be too low. Except for sweet potatoes, she planned to use all her own seeds. For the rest, she decided to take out some of the good seeds in her space and plant them together. This way, she could increase the yield without being so conspicuous.

Of course Zhou had no objection. She had taken so many advantages of her niece that she had long planned to give her this benefit for free.

"By the way, I asked my uncle, and he said the well digger is in the county. I'm going to the Zhao residence for a massage tomorrow, so let Shunzi find someone to make an appointment. I see that the neighbors are already digging at the foot of the mountain, so the time is about the same."

Su He is very concerned about her future home. She has been paying attention to what happens next door these days, and she moves when they do.

"Just do whatever you want. If you need any help, just let me know."

Su He nodded and planned tomorrow's schedule while eating.
