Cong of the Red Chamber Will Not Save the World
Work related
Unappetizing.
"What kind of eyes do you have, do you understand that people depend on food?" While talking, Huo Jiacong and Wu Yi came to the shopkeeper's residence in Yunkelai, and they didn't feel any sympathy when they saw the dejected appearance of the whole family. Compared with these people He has seen a lot of miserable people, at least this family can escape safely, and in the end they can get a thousand or eight hundred taels of silver from him, and maybe they can make a comeback if they save some money.
Wu Yi also finally understood why the master took a fancy to Huo Jiacong. This child's heart is hard enough, and what he believes is not easy to be shaken.Even seeing the miserable appearance of this family, he didn't pay attention to it.The friendship of such a person is definitely worth it, because this child is strong physically and mentally, and will become stronger in the future.
What he regrets is that even if the master left no trace in the child's eyes, at most it is a useful one, but he doesn't need to hold on to it. A big tiger, why does this kid have to act like he can throw it away at any time, and it's not hypocritical, the feeling that he can throw away the whole world at any time is definitely not fake.
If Huo Jiacong knew what Wu Yi was thinking, he would just curl his lips indifferently. Only by abandoning the whole world can he survive in the end times. lose what has been gained.
In fact, the life in Jia's mansion is no different from the last days. From the master to the slave, everyone is fighting, stumbling over each other, and it is still a world where one's life is like a straw. Seeing that he abandoned the Jia's mansion, it will be much smoother immediately, right? Give up what should be discarded decisively, it is not the style of people in the last days.
However, the feeling of pulling the flag is still good, and the [-] mu of land has been transferred smoothly. In order to express his gratitude to the flag, he decided to take out another luminous bead, which is used for warehouse lighting. , is much brighter than the night pearl, absolutely high quality and low price.
Wuyi was even more heartbroken when he heard Huo Jiacong say that there was a luminous bead that was smaller than Cuju. Is this an expression of gratitude or an embarrassment? Even if he bought this kind of thing, his master would not dare to keep it privately, Ninth Prince Let’s not talk about that, the size of a pigeon egg is still insignificant to others, and the size of a cuju is not going to fall into the hands of the emperor.Then it was blown by the pillow of Zhen Huang Guifei, and became the collection of the sixth prince again. Maybe he would show it off in front of the princes, but only the master paid for it.
Looking at Wuyi's toothache, Huo Jiacong naturally didn't know what Wuyi had made up for, and thought he was saving money for the fifth prince, but Huo Jiacong said that our money is about to run out, since we have already given the pillow, I don't mind If so, give me another house. Since it is a house project, you must have a house. You can't keep changing between Huo Zhang's house and the chapel.
The mu of land has been transferred, and in order to express his gratitude to Daqi, he decided to take out another luminous pearl. This one is used for warehouse lighting, and it is much brighter than the luminous pearl. It is absolutely high quality and cheap.
Wu Yi looked at the two fist-sized luminous beads and was even more heartbroken. Is this an expression of gratitude or an embarrassment? Even if this kind of thing is bought, it will not fall into the hands of the emperor.
Seeing Wuyi's toothache, Huo Jiacong said that we have run out of money. Since we have already given the pillow, if you don't mind, we can give you another house. Since it is a house project, you must have a house, and you can't stay in Huo forever. Let's take turns changing between Zhang's house and the chapel.
The author has something to say: Since there is a court marquis in the label, this strong farming flavor is really just a transition.
No.20 Five rounds of land planning
Huo Jiacong learned from Huo Zhang that the [-] mu of land was indeed not high-quality fertile land. For the sake of the dishes in the restaurant, he specially selected [-] mu of dry land to grow drought-tolerant crops, such as corn, sweet potato, potato, peanut and Sunflowers, oh, sunflowers are actually sunflowers.
The remaining fifteen acres are five acres of winter wheat and five acres of sorghum, and the other five acres are planted with peanuts and soybeans.After harvesting, some of them are used to make rations, and the rest are used to make wine. The output of beans is really small, so they can be eaten fresh.
"This shopkeeper is a man who knows how to do business." Huo Zhang learned that it was not the tenant farmers who took care of the [-] mu of land, but the servants who signed the death contract. Once the crime caused the whole family to return home, the able-bodied servants would lead the way to help, and the others would be sold as travel expenses.
"Then how does Young Master Huo plan to plant these lands?" Huo Zhang was fascinated by the vast land.
"You don't want to think about it alone." Huo Jiacong specifically asked the shopkeeper about the yield per mu of these lands. Compared with modern ones, he remembered that the yield per mu of sweet potatoes and potatoes was several thousand kilograms. It is enough to produce a thousand catties.Food and the like are only more than 300 catties, not to mention peanuts, even the modern yield of [-] to [-] catties per mu is not bad, and he not only wants to grow food, he also has to raise some meat.
"I can't grow dozens of acres, but it is still possible." Huo Zhang is determined to dig out the land from Huo Jiacong. Huo Jiacong is not a harsh person, and it is more cost-effective than contracting other people. many.
"Come, come, let me ask you about farming." Huo Jiacong was also willing to use someone who knows the basics, sat on the ground and patted the open space beside him, "Let me tell you my thoughts, and what you think may be the same There are some discrepancies."
Huo Zhang is not a hypocritical person. He knew there was something going on when he heard what Huo Jiacong said. He hurriedly sat across from Huo Jiacong and watched Huo Jiacong scratching on the ground. , looking at Huo Jiacong drawing on the ground, unconsciously asked: "What is Huo Shao painting?"
"Land planning." Huo Jiacong has already thought about the use of these lands, thinking that Huo Zhang is familiar with the people in Huojia Village, and it would be good to introduce him to some people who can work.
"Land planning?" Huo Zhang understood Huo Jiacong's thoughts by looking at the lines on the ground, so he listened attentively to Huo Jiacong's introduction one by one.
"I divided the [-] mu of land into two big pieces, crops and poultry and livestock." Huo Jiacong divided the [-] mu of land into two, and then divided, "Of the [-] mu of crops, six mu are used as orchards, apples, peaches, plums, apricots and pears. As long as the north can grow some, the remaining twelve acres of land are planted with drought-tolerant crops such as corn, potatoes, sweet potatoes, peanuts, soybeans, and sorghum. After harvest, all are planted with winter wheat, and the last two acres are planted with greenhouse vegetables. There is nothing to eat in winter."
"Greenhouse vegetables?" The previous ones are nothing. The slightly barren land needs to be planted with drought-tolerant crops. These things are rare after they are planted. Huo Zhang is a little bit tongue-tied about greenhouse vegetables.He also heard that wealthy families would grow some vegetables on the hot spring village in order to eat vegetables in winter, but he didn't expect that Huo Jiacong wanted to grow vegetables in a greenhouse in this place where there were no neighbors.
"I won't talk about it in summer. In winter, it's just more firewood." In modern times, glass and the like can be used to keep warm. In ancient times, when the only heating method was firewood, he could only think of this method. Besides, the method is what people want to say Come on, brainstorming can always solve it.
"Then what about the remaining ten acres?" Huo Zhang thought about what to do with the remaining ten acres, since the twenty acres were planted with various crops. It wouldn't be possible to use ten acres of land to build a manor. If so, it would be wasted.
"Build chicken, duck, goose sheds, sheep pens and pig pens, and then dig two acres of fish ponds, plant lotus root and raise fish, and also trap ducks and geese so they don't run around." Huo Jiacong clicked on the rest of the place, and said that he was not in Huo Zhang at all. As expected.
This is really a big deal, which surprised Huo Zhang even more than building a greenhouse.These days, there are not many people who specialize in raising these poultry and livestock. They just raise some at home to add to the New Year’s festival. The shopkeeper who came didn't dare.
"I'm afraid no one would dare to do this." Huo Zhang was a little embarrassed. If he was raised by his own family, he would die if he died. If he was raised by the master's family, no one can afford it.
"If there is anything you dare not do, just work hard and do good hygiene." Huo Jiacong carefully thought about the things that could be used. Dirty and messy is the hotbed of disease. As long as you keep it clean and pay attention to ventilation, you can always keep more than half of it.
Seeing Huo Zhang's confused eyes again, he had to explain: "It is to clean up the place where chickens, ducks, geese, sheep and pigs live. Those things are like people. If you are clean, you will get less sick." Now that he can eat authentic food, the raw and cooked food in his space are all rushed out, so hurry up and change to fresh ones.
Huo Zhang was dumbfounded after listening to Huo Jiacong's explanation. It was the first time he had heard that animals had to live as cleanly as humans. No one dared to raise them even if they were so troublesome. He subconsciously persuaded him: "Young Master Huo, The risk is too great, I am afraid no one will dare to take it.”
"No one dares to pick you up." Huo Jiacong stood up and patted Huo Zhang on the shoulder, "It's for your own good that the fat and water don't flow into other people's fields. It's much better than digging food out of the ground, let's talk about experience." It’s all the accumulation of predecessors, so do it well.”
"I think it might be better for me to grow crops." Huo Zhang didn't dare to get a fortune from the poultry, so he hurriedly stood up from the ground and followed Huo Jiacong who was slacking off, begging to return the hot potato.
"You haven't signed the contract yet, you're in a hurry to get angry." Huo Jiacong laughed at Huo Zhang's wrinkled brows.
Huo Zhang was dumbfounded at this moment. How could he have forgotten that so many ideas that he said just now were unrealized ideas, and he smiled embarrassedly, "I'm also in a hurry. Isn't it spring soon?"
"You'd better think about what I said, you'll have experience as long as you keep it, and I'll be more at ease when I leave it to you." Huo Jiacong then made a condition, "I will build the houses and the like, you only need to Just be responsible for buying the cubs and raising them. You can raise as much as you can with this ten acres of land. I won’t interfere. As long as you pay half of the amount, the rest will be yours. I won’t be greedy for your little bit if you sell it. Silver." Seeing that the prevention and treatment of diseases in ancient times was really ineffective, in order to increase Huo Zhang's enthusiasm, he felt that his conditions were already very generous.
Huo Zhang quickly made a calculation in his mind. It is indeed much more cost-effective than farming, and he has accumulated experience. He gritted his teeth and stomped his feet to do it. "Young Master Huo, it's a deal." The earlier the better.
"It's a deal." Huo Jiacong thought that the [-] mu of land would also use this method, so he continued: "The [-] mu of land will also be handed over half and the other half will be kept. I will also pay for the greenhouse. No matter what is planted in the field Let’s see who is willing to plant this rule.”
"Young Master Huo, isn't he afraid that everyone will unite to deceive you?" If the people in the village knew that the master's family was a child, there would probably be quite a few people doing tricks.
"There is a reward for reporting. If anyone who makes a false report is reported, the person who reported it will get 100 taels of silver. If it is verified, all the harvest will be confiscated. If it is not verified, it will be a good time to go to the prison." How could Huo Jiacong not know people? Inferiority, no one will play tricks for this 100 taels, and no one will do what is cheap for others.
"I'll introduce some reliable people to Mr. Huo." Once this system is established, the contractors will naturally dare not go too far under the supervision of those who are eager for money. With the idea of benefiting others and self, Huo Zhang decides to choose carefully.
"Then I'll trouble you." Huo Jiacong is not afraid of these people playing tricks, a person with no power, no power, no money who can pretend to be a tiger with no power, no power, and a rare thing in his hand will definitely be defeated.
Huo Zhang is a vigorous and decisive person. After receiving Huo Jiacong's message, he went to several families on the same day and talked about Huo Jiacong's conditions, and few of them were not moved.The villagers dare not grow peanuts and other things that can't fill their stomachs in their own fields, let alone use wheat and sorghum to make wine.Potatoes and sweet potatoes can fill their stomachs and sell them to restaurants. Nowadays, some people give them land to grow them, which is extra money. The only thing is that no one dares to pick up the greenhouses.
Although it is said that fresh vegetables can be sold at a pretty good price in winter, but no one can guarantee that they will be able to grow them in the cold weather.
There are only two people in Huo Zhang's family, including Huo Qianqian, and the ten acres of poultry and livestock are enough for busy work. It is impossible to plant vegetables in the greenhouse in winter, and it cannot be empty in summer, so Huo Zhang is helpless.
Huo Jiacong also expected that it is not so easy to find people who grow greenhouse vegetables. The common people will be safe when they ask for it, and they will not do things that are risky. Once it’s built, you can get a batch of the earliest vegetables and earn a lot of money, no matter what, let’s build the shed first.”
Huo Jiacong took out two silver bills from his purse and patted them on the table, "This is 150 taels, just ask for as many craftsmen as you need. I just have two requirements, one is to build well, and the other is to build quickly." On his own land How could he get other people to pay for the construction of the project? He didn't want to be taken advantage of. It took a long time to see people's hearts. Huo Zhang dared to promise that it would remain the same. He still didn't believe it. These people can only be part-timers.
"Young Master Huo, you can't always spend money so lavishly, 100 taels is enough." Although Huo Qianqian had doubts about the origin of the money in Huo Jiacong's hands, when she thought that Aunt Lan was also favored, she always kept some good things in her hand, She was relieved, but she couldn't watch Huo Jiacong develop a bad habit of spending money like water at a young age.
"These 50 taels are hard work. You have helped me a lot. Besides, Jiabao needs a lot of money." Huo Jiacong didn't care about money. There is not much difference between eyes and paper.
"Then we'll accept it." Huo Zhang knew what Huo Jiacong meant, so he worked hard to keep the hush money and made a unified statement to the outside world.
Huo Jiacong likes interesting people. This kind of people know what they can do and what they can't do. He couldn't help joking: "Actually, Huo Zhang, you can also follow the path of imperial examinations. It's really nothing for a scholar to be a scholar in this capital where Jinshi is everywhere."
"Do you want me to sit in the same school with my son?" Back then, when I was admitted as a scholar, I lost my son, sister and wife when I was happy for a while.He finally understood that he was not destined to be promoted and get rich. He should just farm his land honestly, raise his son, and find a good home for his niece.
"It's really funny." Huo Jiacong remembered that in ancient times, a son's official position could not surpass Lao Tzu's. If father and son took the exam together, and if the son passed Lao Tzu's exam, then Lao Tzu would not be able to make fun of him.
"Brother Huo, are you at home?" While speaking, there was a knock on the door suddenly, and the shout was as loud as the knock on the door.
Huo Zhang's eyes lit up when he heard this voice, and he looked at Huo Jiacong with a happy smile, "Young Master Huo's greenhouse vegetables are all over."
"That's good." The old god Huo Jiacong was sitting there. If the contractor of the shed was really resolved, he would go back to the chapel. He received a letter from Jonathan. The two of them were on their way back to Beijing. The false guardian is about to arrive.
No.20 Six Surprises
Huo Jiacong didn't intend to get up when he heard the two people's footsteps. Can he say that the Taishi chair is too high?Although it is easy for him to go up and down, but the posture is not very handsome.The most important thing is that he felt the bloody smell of the person who came, and there was a high possibility that he had retreated from the battlefield. It is better to be informal with such a person.
"Chang Yuan, how can you send things to me in a flash? Hunting in winter is not easy." Huo Zhang looked at the rabbit fur in Chang Yuan's hand a little angrily.
"I have a wolf hunter for Yanyan, so I don't want to ask Qianqian if she is free." Chang Yuan smiled naively. Since he settled in Huojia Village, without Huo Zhang's help, he and Dialect would not have integrated into the village so quickly. , after knowing that Huo Jiabao came back, he can find a way to repay, "Besides, the rabbit fur is too small, it is just right for Jiabao, and it is just right to make a jacket, but it would be a waste for adults." Huo Jiacong on the chair.
"Uncle Chang, I'm free, but you mistook Jiabao again, this is Young Master Huo." Huo Qianqian still knew from his uncle that Chang Yuan would not mistook Uncle Fang, but the rest of the memory was messed up.Even the uncle was not recognized because of his familiarity. As for her who had just redeemed herself and Huo Jiabao who had just been found, it was normal for her to be recognized as a mistake. The two of them were still feeling their presence.
"Young Master Huo? It's the young master of that rich family. He looks no different from Jiabao." Chang Yuan scratched his head embarrassedly, "I'm sorry, I don't want to recognize people after killing too many people." Wait. , there is no difference. If he remembers correctly, Jiabao is only over five years old. Why is Huo Shao similar to a five-year-old child?
A look of uneasiness flashed across Chang Yuan's simple and honest face. He always listened to Huo Zhang's chanting about Huo Shao and Huo Shao. How could he be a fox-like person with such tactful methods? What he hated most in his life were those who played tricks .But if he looked closely, he looked like a fox. With that expression and sitting posture, if Chang Yuan was a modern person, he would use the word pretentious to describe it.But this age is too young, even if he doesn't recognize his face, adults and children can still be distinguished clearly. I didn't expect that Young Master Huo is really a young man.
Prosopagnosia, as soon as he heard Huo Qianqian's words, he guessed it.Even if Huo Jiacong has stayed in the last days for a long time, it is difficult to recognize faces, and he doesn't want to bother to remember faces, who knows if he will keep that face next time he meets.But this person looks simple and honest, and he is quite skilled in scaring children.
Huo Jiacong naturally ignored Chang Yuan's embarrassment, and he also knew that the soldiers in ancient times looked down on him most, the dandy boy who had no power to restrain him, but his thin and thin appearance could not be seen as gold and jade, so targeting him like this What do you mean?
"Killing is just nodding, I understand this, but it's not good to say this in front of girls." Joke, he is not a child who was frightened, the zombies he killed were all human, and he killed even human , But what is a retired soldier afraid of? He doesn't know who will win or lose in a fight.
Chang Yuan was really embarrassed, he would never have thought that Huo Shao, whom Huo Zhang said with a little admiration every time, was a child, so he stuffed the rabbit skin in his hand into Huo Zhang's arms, and apologized : "I said something wrong, Young Master Huo, please don't worry about it.
Chang Yuan is a man who can bend and stretch, and he doesn't feel any embarrassment in apologizing to a child. The most important thing in life is to have a thick skin, otherwise how could he live so comfortably in this place.
"I don't care. It's just that when Huo Zhang heard you coming, he said that my greenhouse vegetables have been settled. I want to ask if you know how to grow greenhouse vegetables?" Huo Jiacong waved his hands to express that he didn't mind, "Also, don't be Huo Xiao The young master said, if you want Young Master Huo, or Jia Cong, or even Huo Jiacong, you can." The worst thing about Huo Jiacong is the small print, he is restricted in everything he does.
"Okay, I'll call you Shao Huo." Chang Yuan considers himself a hero, and he is quite knowledgeable about current affairs. The kid looks harmless, but Zhang Yang's aura doesn't tell him that. It's for his peace. It is not impossible to bend one's knees in life.But what the kid just said was greenhouse vegetables. He knows where this kid came from, and he subconsciously looked at Huo Zhang.
"Chang Yuan, didn't Dialect grow vegetables in winter?" Huo Zhang actually didn't know much about Chang Yuan and Dialect. He only knew that these two people settled in Huojia Village three years ago because they were not young. He is also good at hunting and farming. He was harassed several times by the matchmaker, and soon it was reported that the two became brothers.
Dialect even grew vegetables that were not available in winter, but at the beginning, people in the village bullied and talked a lot of gossip. With blood on their hands, the two of them will not stand firm so quickly.
It's not bad to have a business owner now, but he knows that dialect is very afraid of the cold, and he will get sick every winter.He just delivered food to the two of them a few times. After his son lost his wife and let him go, he fed the whole family by himself, and he was very envious to see Chang Yuan and Dialect being in love with each other.
"I don't want to work hard with words." Chang Yuan was silent for a while. When he was stationed with the Qing army in the Northeast, everything was hard because the weather was too cold, and the soldiers like them couldn't eat fresh food. In the end, they made a secret in dialect. The small shed grows some vegetables, and occasionally gives them to the cook to satisfy his hunger.
In the end, he was reported by someone who was wrong with him. Fortunately, he was like eating some fresh vegetables in winter, so his dialect was beaten and he became a vegetable grower after twenty army sticks.But going out to that place in the northeast can freeze a person to death, and in the end Dialect fell into a problem of chills, and he left with Dialect in the third year.
"Chang Yuan, you and Fang Yan don't have any land in Huojia Village, and you didn't lose much in the end when you rented and planted others. I think this is an opportunity. You can't always let Fang Yan suffer with you." Huo Zhang stated the conditions set by Huo Jiacong. , sincerely invited Chang Yuan and Fang Yan to join the ranks of raising meat animals. At that time, when he accepted Huo Jiacong, he also wanted to attract these two people into the group.
"Really only have to pay half of it, and the rest will belong to us, and we won't be allowed to pay tax money." Chang Yuan knew that the tax money for an acre of land was one or two dollars, and they didn't grow food on this land, so they had to pay tax in the end. Pay more than a dozen taels of silver, and animals are not as easy to serve as crops. Once they die, they are one piece, and the possibility of losing everything is relatively high.
"However, I can afford to pay a few dozen taels of tax money. What I want is food." Originally, it was tax-free to hang the land under the name of Huo Zhang, who is known as a scholar, but it is a pity that the most important thing he lacks is money. Don't care about this anymore.If it is really under Huo Zhang's name, it is good to save more than a dozen taels a year. If there is one, two, or three in the future, it will be too troublesome to talk about it.
Why do ordinary people have to work hard all year round and still not have enough food and clothing? In ancient times, the yield per mu was only about two stones, and they had to pay one stone of grain.If a renter wants to rent a plant, he has to pay taxes not only to the country but also to the landlord, and if he is diligent, he can barely get enough food and clothing. If the family has a large population, it will suffer.
"I'll go and discuss it with Yanyan." Chang Yuan and Fang Yan's money was used to settle down, and they couldn't afford to buy land, so they had to rent and plant the land of the village chief's house, but the harvest was not enough for two big men to eat , he had no choice but to hunt in the mountains to support his family.
"Go and come back soon." Huo Zhang knew the situation of Chang Yuan and Fang Yan well, and it was Fang Yan who really made the decision.
Huo Jiacong had prepared the contract a long time ago, and was waiting to sign the contract at the same time.Originally, he thought that he would stay in Huojia Village for a few more days because he couldn't find a greenhouse to grow vegetables, but he didn't expect that there would be a surprise. There were Chang Yuan and Fang Yan who had retired from the two armies, and ordinary people would not dare to provoke them. .
"Huo Zhang, go and find all the contractors. If you need any witnesses, just call them once and for all." Now that all the land contractors have been found, let's sign the contract. The report is heard in the ears, and Huo Zhang, Chang Yuan and Dialect can just be their own representatives. At present, these people are still credible.
Huo Zhang acted according to his words. In addition to the contractors, he had to go to the village head's house. The village head should be informed if the [-] acres of land changed owners.As soon as Huo Zhang stepped out of the yard, Chang Yuan entered the door with dialect, because Huo Zhang was not there, and Huo Qianqian avoided Huo Jiabao's room. Although Huo Qianqian called these two uncles, it is better to avoid suspicion if the elders are not around .
"Young Master Huo, how often does the contract change?" Dialect asked the most important question straight to the point.
"Change every three years, but as long as you follow the above conditions, it is possible not to change for 30 years." Huo Jiacong handed the contract written by Huo Zhang to Dialect, and he finally understood why he listened to Huo Zhang and Chang Yuan just now. The conversation was awkward. The truth of the matter is that these two are husband and wife. Don't underestimate otaku. Otaku is constantly evolving, and otaku is the ultimate evolution.
Dialect took over the contract and looked at it carefully. It was indeed much more lenient than ordinary contracts. They only needed to pay for the seeds and cubs and the charcoal fire in winter. All other equipment was provided by the owner. If you hand in the truth, you will continue to renew the contract, "Young Master Huo, you won't make money if you are so loose."
"I have plenty of money, and what I want are things." Let's not talk about food. Even Wu Yi can see that he is a foodie. Fortunately, what he doesn't know is that Wu Yi thinks he is so obsessed with food. Because of the sequelae of wandering and being a beggar, if Wu Yi knew about it, he would soon become a red-hot one.
Chang Yuan and Dialect looked at each other, completely unable to understand what the young master of the rich family was thinking. There are so many things that you can't finish eating at once, shouldn't you just exchange them for silver?But as the kid said, he is not short of money, and it will benefit him a lot if they sign.
"In that case, we've signed it." Dialect made a final decision, and he still has the final say on this family.
While talking, Huo Zhang also brought people in. There are really not many villagers digging food on the [-]-acre land, so representatives of two families and the village head also came.In the end, under the witness of the village chief, Huo Wei, the grandnephew of Huo Zhang’s sixth uncle, took over six acres of orchards, and the second son of the village chief took over twelve acres of crops. The remaining twelve acres were more difficult to manage. The only ones were Huo Zhang who contracted several of them.
Now that the food problem has been solved, Huo Jiacong doesn't plan to live in Huojiacun. After all, Rainer is his guardian in name, so he should wait in the church and check the place where the house is built.An otaku is an otaku, only if he has a house can he live in a house. Anyway, he got a lot of money from the hands of the apprentice, and the next step is to solve the housing problem.
You say buy?The one he bought is not as comfortable as the one he designed himself. He has so much food to store, so he has to build a cellar and ice cellar or something.Besides, the house is a lifetime thing, and he has to design it carefully.
No.20 Take what you need seven times
After all, he found out that the luminous pearl was not dedicated to his father, but abducted into Qishu's Zhongshun Palace.It's not a day or two for the father to be partial to the sixth brother. He offered it up and it was cheaper in the end. Others are too embarrassed, so it's better to exchange some money in the hands of the seventh uncle.Women love to spend money, so his pockets are still a little tight.
"Xiao Wu, whenever you have trouble, you can go to Uncle Qi to fix it." Seeing Tu Yu's obsequious expression, Tu Yu raised his forehead. Is it easy for him to act like this idle person? The older he gets, the more suspicious he becomes. If it wasn't for Xiao Wu, he wouldn't be a clique for personal gain, so how many eyeliners would have to be added around his mansion.
"Uncle Qi, you guessed wrong this time, my nephew definitely didn't cause any trouble." Tu Yu waved his hand to signal Wu Yi to put the box on the table beside Tu Yu, and opened it smoothly.
"What is this?" The transparency of the crystal ball is very high, and it is said that the luminous pearl is not so round and natural. Tu Yu suddenly thought of Xiao Jiu's luminous bead the size of a pigeon egg, and instantly realized, "How can that little bug have So many good things."
"My nephew intercepted Xiao Chongzi's letter. It was written in distorted Spanish. It is certain that Xiao Chongzi did fly back. It is not surprising that there are some good things. The man named Reina is said to like to travel. These things are probably collected from various places.”
There is someone under his command who is proficient in Spanish. In fact, he has never understood why his ancestors stipulated that the royal family must always pay attention to foreigners who come to court.
Therefore, these princes always thought that their ancestors were dissatisfied with foreigners, especially the generous rewards given to the Zheng family in Taiwan who expelled the Dutch and the Cui family in Macau who expelled the Portuguese, which made people confirm this idea.
It's a pity that the ancestors once again refreshed everyone's cognition. Except that foreign businessmen are not allowed to make friends with imperial officials, they have no right of residence and can only rent, and the treatment they receive is no different from that of Chinese people.Of course, this is only on the surface. The ancestors stipulated that all foreigners are not allowed to own land in Dashun, and generations who dare to sell land and houses to foreigners are not allowed to take the imperial examination.
Moreover, the merchants can only take away goods. All information about the dynasty, even a piece of paper, is not allowed to be taken away. Instead, foreigners are welcome to bring some books from outside the region. If a merchant finds useful books, they can just hand them in. Minus a year of say.
However, every foreigner who enters the country will go through strict inspections, and a general understanding of the identity and background of the visitors must be obtained. For example, missionaries have to register at the Yamen, and the church is also funded by the imperial court. Missionaries have no property rights.
"Then you won't have any trouble helping him to establish a household registration." Even though Huo Jiacong is still a child, Tu Yu doesn't want him to be trained by a foreigner and change his position in Dashun.
"The whole world knows a saying, people who are not of my race must have different minds." Tu Yu suddenly laughed when he thought of Huo Jiacong's temper, "That's a little slob, every time he says something slightly complicated, he gets impatient Now, I’m afraid to avoid trouble.” Thinking of Wu Yi saying that Yun Ke Lai involved the sixth prince, he retreated as soon as he heard it, and he felt happy.
"Just pay attention." Tu Yu also felt that he was worrying unnecessarily, so he changed the topic to the luminous bead again, "You always go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, so let's get straight to the point and say what's wrong."
"Since we have Xiao Chongzi's way, my nephew wants to open a treasure shop." The prince will also be in a situation where he has a lot of cash, and Tu Fu also knows that the dynasty stipulates that the clan and people with fame are not allowed to compete with the people for profit, but There is no Zhuangzi shop, people like them will starve to death just relying on the little salary, okay? There is a Zhuangzi shop in the woman's dowry, so don't big men still care about women asking for money?
"Although things are rare and expensive, you are sure that little bug is in stock." Good things are what everyone wants, and he doesn't believe that foreigners don't like rare things. Dashun Dynasty's shop selling Western goods has A lot of things are exported to Dashun because they are flooded in their own country and are no longer used.
"Then just call the little bug over and ask if it's okay." Tu Fu really wanted to earn some pocket money, so Wu Yi had to accept his fate and go to the chapel to guard, and after he sent Wu Yi away, his expression changed .
"It's not a problem to carry Wuyi all the time. You have to change it from time to time so as not to arouse suspicion." Tu Yu has always been very glad that he didn't have the opportunity to grab that chair with his brother Huang. Look at how he ranks his son. A, B, C, D, Wu, Ji, Geng, Xin Ren, each of the nineteen people who said they were secret guards were actually eyeliners had a headache. These dark guards have all followed their new masters. It is hard to say how many of them are loyal to the emperor.
"Wuyi is loyal, it's better than not knowing whose eyeliner it is." Wuyi's loyalty should indeed be appreciated, but it's a pity that all his loyalty is dedicated to the emperor, since he is the emperor's person, he will make the best use of it.
"It's Xiao Liu who tripped you up again?" Tu Yu also knew that Brother Huang was very biased, and he didn't know what kind of pillow noise the women of Zhen's family made, and named Xiao Liu Zuo. Wasn't this poking at the prince's heart? ?It's good now, let alone the prince's heart, even the prince's seat has been pried away, and the positions of the eldest prince and the third prince are also in jeopardy.
Tu Yu was annoyed when he thought of the four kings and eight princes and the Jiangnan Zhen family, and became more and more arrogant after following his ancestors to become aristocrats. He blatantly helped Xiao Liu suppress the wives and wives of other princes, and dragged the prince down abruptly. , the eldest prince and the third prince are almost abolished.Fortunately, the fourth prince still lived under the Zhen family woman, and the emperor brother seemed to have noticed something wrong, and suddenly showed signs of missing the prince, and the people in the court saw the wind and began to have the voice of restoring the prince, otherwise it would be The world of the six princes is over.
"Then who is Lin Hai?" Tu Fu knew that the Rongguo Mansion and the Zhen family were old in-laws, and suddenly learned that Lin Hai's daughter had entered the Rongguo Mansion for three months, and he always felt like the wind was coming.
"Lin Hai." Tu Yu suddenly thought of another person, and unconsciously burst into a smile, "Lin Hai is your father's man, and he is also loyal to the crown prince. He was jointly promoted by your father and crown prince."
"What kind of eyes do you have, do you understand that people depend on food?" While talking, Huo Jiacong and Wu Yi came to the shopkeeper's residence in Yunkelai, and they didn't feel any sympathy when they saw the dejected appearance of the whole family. Compared with these people He has seen a lot of miserable people, at least this family can escape safely, and in the end they can get a thousand or eight hundred taels of silver from him, and maybe they can make a comeback if they save some money.
Wu Yi also finally understood why the master took a fancy to Huo Jiacong. This child's heart is hard enough, and what he believes is not easy to be shaken.Even seeing the miserable appearance of this family, he didn't pay attention to it.The friendship of such a person is definitely worth it, because this child is strong physically and mentally, and will become stronger in the future.
What he regrets is that even if the master left no trace in the child's eyes, at most it is a useful one, but he doesn't need to hold on to it. A big tiger, why does this kid have to act like he can throw it away at any time, and it's not hypocritical, the feeling that he can throw away the whole world at any time is definitely not fake.
If Huo Jiacong knew what Wu Yi was thinking, he would just curl his lips indifferently. Only by abandoning the whole world can he survive in the end times. lose what has been gained.
In fact, the life in Jia's mansion is no different from the last days. From the master to the slave, everyone is fighting, stumbling over each other, and it is still a world where one's life is like a straw. Seeing that he abandoned the Jia's mansion, it will be much smoother immediately, right? Give up what should be discarded decisively, it is not the style of people in the last days.
However, the feeling of pulling the flag is still good, and the [-] mu of land has been transferred smoothly. In order to express his gratitude to the flag, he decided to take out another luminous bead, which is used for warehouse lighting. , is much brighter than the night pearl, absolutely high quality and low price.
Wuyi was even more heartbroken when he heard Huo Jiacong say that there was a luminous bead that was smaller than Cuju. Is this an expression of gratitude or an embarrassment? Even if he bought this kind of thing, his master would not dare to keep it privately, Ninth Prince Let’s not talk about that, the size of a pigeon egg is still insignificant to others, and the size of a cuju is not going to fall into the hands of the emperor.Then it was blown by the pillow of Zhen Huang Guifei, and became the collection of the sixth prince again. Maybe he would show it off in front of the princes, but only the master paid for it.
Looking at Wuyi's toothache, Huo Jiacong naturally didn't know what Wuyi had made up for, and thought he was saving money for the fifth prince, but Huo Jiacong said that our money is about to run out, since we have already given the pillow, I don't mind If so, give me another house. Since it is a house project, you must have a house. You can't keep changing between Huo Zhang's house and the chapel.
The mu of land has been transferred, and in order to express his gratitude to Daqi, he decided to take out another luminous pearl. This one is used for warehouse lighting, and it is much brighter than the luminous pearl. It is absolutely high quality and cheap.
Wu Yi looked at the two fist-sized luminous beads and was even more heartbroken. Is this an expression of gratitude or an embarrassment? Even if this kind of thing is bought, it will not fall into the hands of the emperor.
Seeing Wuyi's toothache, Huo Jiacong said that we have run out of money. Since we have already given the pillow, if you don't mind, we can give you another house. Since it is a house project, you must have a house, and you can't stay in Huo forever. Let's take turns changing between Zhang's house and the chapel.
The author has something to say: Since there is a court marquis in the label, this strong farming flavor is really just a transition.
No.20 Five rounds of land planning
Huo Jiacong learned from Huo Zhang that the [-] mu of land was indeed not high-quality fertile land. For the sake of the dishes in the restaurant, he specially selected [-] mu of dry land to grow drought-tolerant crops, such as corn, sweet potato, potato, peanut and Sunflowers, oh, sunflowers are actually sunflowers.
The remaining fifteen acres are five acres of winter wheat and five acres of sorghum, and the other five acres are planted with peanuts and soybeans.After harvesting, some of them are used to make rations, and the rest are used to make wine. The output of beans is really small, so they can be eaten fresh.
"This shopkeeper is a man who knows how to do business." Huo Zhang learned that it was not the tenant farmers who took care of the [-] mu of land, but the servants who signed the death contract. Once the crime caused the whole family to return home, the able-bodied servants would lead the way to help, and the others would be sold as travel expenses.
"Then how does Young Master Huo plan to plant these lands?" Huo Zhang was fascinated by the vast land.
"You don't want to think about it alone." Huo Jiacong specifically asked the shopkeeper about the yield per mu of these lands. Compared with modern ones, he remembered that the yield per mu of sweet potatoes and potatoes was several thousand kilograms. It is enough to produce a thousand catties.Food and the like are only more than 300 catties, not to mention peanuts, even the modern yield of [-] to [-] catties per mu is not bad, and he not only wants to grow food, he also has to raise some meat.
"I can't grow dozens of acres, but it is still possible." Huo Zhang is determined to dig out the land from Huo Jiacong. Huo Jiacong is not a harsh person, and it is more cost-effective than contracting other people. many.
"Come, come, let me ask you about farming." Huo Jiacong was also willing to use someone who knows the basics, sat on the ground and patted the open space beside him, "Let me tell you my thoughts, and what you think may be the same There are some discrepancies."
Huo Zhang is not a hypocritical person. He knew there was something going on when he heard what Huo Jiacong said. He hurriedly sat across from Huo Jiacong and watched Huo Jiacong scratching on the ground. , looking at Huo Jiacong drawing on the ground, unconsciously asked: "What is Huo Shao painting?"
"Land planning." Huo Jiacong has already thought about the use of these lands, thinking that Huo Zhang is familiar with the people in Huojia Village, and it would be good to introduce him to some people who can work.
"Land planning?" Huo Zhang understood Huo Jiacong's thoughts by looking at the lines on the ground, so he listened attentively to Huo Jiacong's introduction one by one.
"I divided the [-] mu of land into two big pieces, crops and poultry and livestock." Huo Jiacong divided the [-] mu of land into two, and then divided, "Of the [-] mu of crops, six mu are used as orchards, apples, peaches, plums, apricots and pears. As long as the north can grow some, the remaining twelve acres of land are planted with drought-tolerant crops such as corn, potatoes, sweet potatoes, peanuts, soybeans, and sorghum. After harvest, all are planted with winter wheat, and the last two acres are planted with greenhouse vegetables. There is nothing to eat in winter."
"Greenhouse vegetables?" The previous ones are nothing. The slightly barren land needs to be planted with drought-tolerant crops. These things are rare after they are planted. Huo Zhang is a little bit tongue-tied about greenhouse vegetables.He also heard that wealthy families would grow some vegetables on the hot spring village in order to eat vegetables in winter, but he didn't expect that Huo Jiacong wanted to grow vegetables in a greenhouse in this place where there were no neighbors.
"I won't talk about it in summer. In winter, it's just more firewood." In modern times, glass and the like can be used to keep warm. In ancient times, when the only heating method was firewood, he could only think of this method. Besides, the method is what people want to say Come on, brainstorming can always solve it.
"Then what about the remaining ten acres?" Huo Zhang thought about what to do with the remaining ten acres, since the twenty acres were planted with various crops. It wouldn't be possible to use ten acres of land to build a manor. If so, it would be wasted.
"Build chicken, duck, goose sheds, sheep pens and pig pens, and then dig two acres of fish ponds, plant lotus root and raise fish, and also trap ducks and geese so they don't run around." Huo Jiacong clicked on the rest of the place, and said that he was not in Huo Zhang at all. As expected.
This is really a big deal, which surprised Huo Zhang even more than building a greenhouse.These days, there are not many people who specialize in raising these poultry and livestock. They just raise some at home to add to the New Year’s festival. The shopkeeper who came didn't dare.
"I'm afraid no one would dare to do this." Huo Zhang was a little embarrassed. If he was raised by his own family, he would die if he died. If he was raised by the master's family, no one can afford it.
"If there is anything you dare not do, just work hard and do good hygiene." Huo Jiacong carefully thought about the things that could be used. Dirty and messy is the hotbed of disease. As long as you keep it clean and pay attention to ventilation, you can always keep more than half of it.
Seeing Huo Zhang's confused eyes again, he had to explain: "It is to clean up the place where chickens, ducks, geese, sheep and pigs live. Those things are like people. If you are clean, you will get less sick." Now that he can eat authentic food, the raw and cooked food in his space are all rushed out, so hurry up and change to fresh ones.
Huo Zhang was dumbfounded after listening to Huo Jiacong's explanation. It was the first time he had heard that animals had to live as cleanly as humans. No one dared to raise them even if they were so troublesome. He subconsciously persuaded him: "Young Master Huo, The risk is too great, I am afraid no one will dare to take it.”
"No one dares to pick you up." Huo Jiacong stood up and patted Huo Zhang on the shoulder, "It's for your own good that the fat and water don't flow into other people's fields. It's much better than digging food out of the ground, let's talk about experience." It’s all the accumulation of predecessors, so do it well.”
"I think it might be better for me to grow crops." Huo Zhang didn't dare to get a fortune from the poultry, so he hurriedly stood up from the ground and followed Huo Jiacong who was slacking off, begging to return the hot potato.
"You haven't signed the contract yet, you're in a hurry to get angry." Huo Jiacong laughed at Huo Zhang's wrinkled brows.
Huo Zhang was dumbfounded at this moment. How could he have forgotten that so many ideas that he said just now were unrealized ideas, and he smiled embarrassedly, "I'm also in a hurry. Isn't it spring soon?"
"You'd better think about what I said, you'll have experience as long as you keep it, and I'll be more at ease when I leave it to you." Huo Jiacong then made a condition, "I will build the houses and the like, you only need to Just be responsible for buying the cubs and raising them. You can raise as much as you can with this ten acres of land. I won’t interfere. As long as you pay half of the amount, the rest will be yours. I won’t be greedy for your little bit if you sell it. Silver." Seeing that the prevention and treatment of diseases in ancient times was really ineffective, in order to increase Huo Zhang's enthusiasm, he felt that his conditions were already very generous.
Huo Zhang quickly made a calculation in his mind. It is indeed much more cost-effective than farming, and he has accumulated experience. He gritted his teeth and stomped his feet to do it. "Young Master Huo, it's a deal." The earlier the better.
"It's a deal." Huo Jiacong thought that the [-] mu of land would also use this method, so he continued: "The [-] mu of land will also be handed over half and the other half will be kept. I will also pay for the greenhouse. No matter what is planted in the field Let’s see who is willing to plant this rule.”
"Young Master Huo, isn't he afraid that everyone will unite to deceive you?" If the people in the village knew that the master's family was a child, there would probably be quite a few people doing tricks.
"There is a reward for reporting. If anyone who makes a false report is reported, the person who reported it will get 100 taels of silver. If it is verified, all the harvest will be confiscated. If it is not verified, it will be a good time to go to the prison." How could Huo Jiacong not know people? Inferiority, no one will play tricks for this 100 taels, and no one will do what is cheap for others.
"I'll introduce some reliable people to Mr. Huo." Once this system is established, the contractors will naturally dare not go too far under the supervision of those who are eager for money. With the idea of benefiting others and self, Huo Zhang decides to choose carefully.
"Then I'll trouble you." Huo Jiacong is not afraid of these people playing tricks, a person with no power, no power, no money who can pretend to be a tiger with no power, no power, and a rare thing in his hand will definitely be defeated.
Huo Zhang is a vigorous and decisive person. After receiving Huo Jiacong's message, he went to several families on the same day and talked about Huo Jiacong's conditions, and few of them were not moved.The villagers dare not grow peanuts and other things that can't fill their stomachs in their own fields, let alone use wheat and sorghum to make wine.Potatoes and sweet potatoes can fill their stomachs and sell them to restaurants. Nowadays, some people give them land to grow them, which is extra money. The only thing is that no one dares to pick up the greenhouses.
Although it is said that fresh vegetables can be sold at a pretty good price in winter, but no one can guarantee that they will be able to grow them in the cold weather.
There are only two people in Huo Zhang's family, including Huo Qianqian, and the ten acres of poultry and livestock are enough for busy work. It is impossible to plant vegetables in the greenhouse in winter, and it cannot be empty in summer, so Huo Zhang is helpless.
Huo Jiacong also expected that it is not so easy to find people who grow greenhouse vegetables. The common people will be safe when they ask for it, and they will not do things that are risky. Once it’s built, you can get a batch of the earliest vegetables and earn a lot of money, no matter what, let’s build the shed first.”
Huo Jiacong took out two silver bills from his purse and patted them on the table, "This is 150 taels, just ask for as many craftsmen as you need. I just have two requirements, one is to build well, and the other is to build quickly." On his own land How could he get other people to pay for the construction of the project? He didn't want to be taken advantage of. It took a long time to see people's hearts. Huo Zhang dared to promise that it would remain the same. He still didn't believe it. These people can only be part-timers.
"Young Master Huo, you can't always spend money so lavishly, 100 taels is enough." Although Huo Qianqian had doubts about the origin of the money in Huo Jiacong's hands, when she thought that Aunt Lan was also favored, she always kept some good things in her hand, She was relieved, but she couldn't watch Huo Jiacong develop a bad habit of spending money like water at a young age.
"These 50 taels are hard work. You have helped me a lot. Besides, Jiabao needs a lot of money." Huo Jiacong didn't care about money. There is not much difference between eyes and paper.
"Then we'll accept it." Huo Zhang knew what Huo Jiacong meant, so he worked hard to keep the hush money and made a unified statement to the outside world.
Huo Jiacong likes interesting people. This kind of people know what they can do and what they can't do. He couldn't help joking: "Actually, Huo Zhang, you can also follow the path of imperial examinations. It's really nothing for a scholar to be a scholar in this capital where Jinshi is everywhere."
"Do you want me to sit in the same school with my son?" Back then, when I was admitted as a scholar, I lost my son, sister and wife when I was happy for a while.He finally understood that he was not destined to be promoted and get rich. He should just farm his land honestly, raise his son, and find a good home for his niece.
"It's really funny." Huo Jiacong remembered that in ancient times, a son's official position could not surpass Lao Tzu's. If father and son took the exam together, and if the son passed Lao Tzu's exam, then Lao Tzu would not be able to make fun of him.
"Brother Huo, are you at home?" While speaking, there was a knock on the door suddenly, and the shout was as loud as the knock on the door.
Huo Zhang's eyes lit up when he heard this voice, and he looked at Huo Jiacong with a happy smile, "Young Master Huo's greenhouse vegetables are all over."
"That's good." The old god Huo Jiacong was sitting there. If the contractor of the shed was really resolved, he would go back to the chapel. He received a letter from Jonathan. The two of them were on their way back to Beijing. The false guardian is about to arrive.
No.20 Six Surprises
Huo Jiacong didn't intend to get up when he heard the two people's footsteps. Can he say that the Taishi chair is too high?Although it is easy for him to go up and down, but the posture is not very handsome.The most important thing is that he felt the bloody smell of the person who came, and there was a high possibility that he had retreated from the battlefield. It is better to be informal with such a person.
"Chang Yuan, how can you send things to me in a flash? Hunting in winter is not easy." Huo Zhang looked at the rabbit fur in Chang Yuan's hand a little angrily.
"I have a wolf hunter for Yanyan, so I don't want to ask Qianqian if she is free." Chang Yuan smiled naively. Since he settled in Huojia Village, without Huo Zhang's help, he and Dialect would not have integrated into the village so quickly. , after knowing that Huo Jiabao came back, he can find a way to repay, "Besides, the rabbit fur is too small, it is just right for Jiabao, and it is just right to make a jacket, but it would be a waste for adults." Huo Jiacong on the chair.
"Uncle Chang, I'm free, but you mistook Jiabao again, this is Young Master Huo." Huo Qianqian still knew from his uncle that Chang Yuan would not mistook Uncle Fang, but the rest of the memory was messed up.Even the uncle was not recognized because of his familiarity. As for her who had just redeemed herself and Huo Jiabao who had just been found, it was normal for her to be recognized as a mistake. The two of them were still feeling their presence.
"Young Master Huo? It's the young master of that rich family. He looks no different from Jiabao." Chang Yuan scratched his head embarrassedly, "I'm sorry, I don't want to recognize people after killing too many people." Wait. , there is no difference. If he remembers correctly, Jiabao is only over five years old. Why is Huo Shao similar to a five-year-old child?
A look of uneasiness flashed across Chang Yuan's simple and honest face. He always listened to Huo Zhang's chanting about Huo Shao and Huo Shao. How could he be a fox-like person with such tactful methods? What he hated most in his life were those who played tricks .But if he looked closely, he looked like a fox. With that expression and sitting posture, if Chang Yuan was a modern person, he would use the word pretentious to describe it.But this age is too young, even if he doesn't recognize his face, adults and children can still be distinguished clearly. I didn't expect that Young Master Huo is really a young man.
Prosopagnosia, as soon as he heard Huo Qianqian's words, he guessed it.Even if Huo Jiacong has stayed in the last days for a long time, it is difficult to recognize faces, and he doesn't want to bother to remember faces, who knows if he will keep that face next time he meets.But this person looks simple and honest, and he is quite skilled in scaring children.
Huo Jiacong naturally ignored Chang Yuan's embarrassment, and he also knew that the soldiers in ancient times looked down on him most, the dandy boy who had no power to restrain him, but his thin and thin appearance could not be seen as gold and jade, so targeting him like this What do you mean?
"Killing is just nodding, I understand this, but it's not good to say this in front of girls." Joke, he is not a child who was frightened, the zombies he killed were all human, and he killed even human , But what is a retired soldier afraid of? He doesn't know who will win or lose in a fight.
Chang Yuan was really embarrassed, he would never have thought that Huo Shao, whom Huo Zhang said with a little admiration every time, was a child, so he stuffed the rabbit skin in his hand into Huo Zhang's arms, and apologized : "I said something wrong, Young Master Huo, please don't worry about it.
Chang Yuan is a man who can bend and stretch, and he doesn't feel any embarrassment in apologizing to a child. The most important thing in life is to have a thick skin, otherwise how could he live so comfortably in this place.
"I don't care. It's just that when Huo Zhang heard you coming, he said that my greenhouse vegetables have been settled. I want to ask if you know how to grow greenhouse vegetables?" Huo Jiacong waved his hands to express that he didn't mind, "Also, don't be Huo Xiao The young master said, if you want Young Master Huo, or Jia Cong, or even Huo Jiacong, you can." The worst thing about Huo Jiacong is the small print, he is restricted in everything he does.
"Okay, I'll call you Shao Huo." Chang Yuan considers himself a hero, and he is quite knowledgeable about current affairs. The kid looks harmless, but Zhang Yang's aura doesn't tell him that. It's for his peace. It is not impossible to bend one's knees in life.But what the kid just said was greenhouse vegetables. He knows where this kid came from, and he subconsciously looked at Huo Zhang.
"Chang Yuan, didn't Dialect grow vegetables in winter?" Huo Zhang actually didn't know much about Chang Yuan and Dialect. He only knew that these two people settled in Huojia Village three years ago because they were not young. He is also good at hunting and farming. He was harassed several times by the matchmaker, and soon it was reported that the two became brothers.
Dialect even grew vegetables that were not available in winter, but at the beginning, people in the village bullied and talked a lot of gossip. With blood on their hands, the two of them will not stand firm so quickly.
It's not bad to have a business owner now, but he knows that dialect is very afraid of the cold, and he will get sick every winter.He just delivered food to the two of them a few times. After his son lost his wife and let him go, he fed the whole family by himself, and he was very envious to see Chang Yuan and Dialect being in love with each other.
"I don't want to work hard with words." Chang Yuan was silent for a while. When he was stationed with the Qing army in the Northeast, everything was hard because the weather was too cold, and the soldiers like them couldn't eat fresh food. In the end, they made a secret in dialect. The small shed grows some vegetables, and occasionally gives them to the cook to satisfy his hunger.
In the end, he was reported by someone who was wrong with him. Fortunately, he was like eating some fresh vegetables in winter, so his dialect was beaten and he became a vegetable grower after twenty army sticks.But going out to that place in the northeast can freeze a person to death, and in the end Dialect fell into a problem of chills, and he left with Dialect in the third year.
"Chang Yuan, you and Fang Yan don't have any land in Huojia Village, and you didn't lose much in the end when you rented and planted others. I think this is an opportunity. You can't always let Fang Yan suffer with you." Huo Zhang stated the conditions set by Huo Jiacong. , sincerely invited Chang Yuan and Fang Yan to join the ranks of raising meat animals. At that time, when he accepted Huo Jiacong, he also wanted to attract these two people into the group.
"Really only have to pay half of it, and the rest will belong to us, and we won't be allowed to pay tax money." Chang Yuan knew that the tax money for an acre of land was one or two dollars, and they didn't grow food on this land, so they had to pay tax in the end. Pay more than a dozen taels of silver, and animals are not as easy to serve as crops. Once they die, they are one piece, and the possibility of losing everything is relatively high.
"However, I can afford to pay a few dozen taels of tax money. What I want is food." Originally, it was tax-free to hang the land under the name of Huo Zhang, who is known as a scholar, but it is a pity that the most important thing he lacks is money. Don't care about this anymore.If it is really under Huo Zhang's name, it is good to save more than a dozen taels a year. If there is one, two, or three in the future, it will be too troublesome to talk about it.
Why do ordinary people have to work hard all year round and still not have enough food and clothing? In ancient times, the yield per mu was only about two stones, and they had to pay one stone of grain.If a renter wants to rent a plant, he has to pay taxes not only to the country but also to the landlord, and if he is diligent, he can barely get enough food and clothing. If the family has a large population, it will suffer.
"I'll go and discuss it with Yanyan." Chang Yuan and Fang Yan's money was used to settle down, and they couldn't afford to buy land, so they had to rent and plant the land of the village chief's house, but the harvest was not enough for two big men to eat , he had no choice but to hunt in the mountains to support his family.
"Go and come back soon." Huo Zhang knew the situation of Chang Yuan and Fang Yan well, and it was Fang Yan who really made the decision.
Huo Jiacong had prepared the contract a long time ago, and was waiting to sign the contract at the same time.Originally, he thought that he would stay in Huojia Village for a few more days because he couldn't find a greenhouse to grow vegetables, but he didn't expect that there would be a surprise. There were Chang Yuan and Fang Yan who had retired from the two armies, and ordinary people would not dare to provoke them. .
"Huo Zhang, go and find all the contractors. If you need any witnesses, just call them once and for all." Now that all the land contractors have been found, let's sign the contract. The report is heard in the ears, and Huo Zhang, Chang Yuan and Dialect can just be their own representatives. At present, these people are still credible.
Huo Zhang acted according to his words. In addition to the contractors, he had to go to the village head's house. The village head should be informed if the [-] acres of land changed owners.As soon as Huo Zhang stepped out of the yard, Chang Yuan entered the door with dialect, because Huo Zhang was not there, and Huo Qianqian avoided Huo Jiabao's room. Although Huo Qianqian called these two uncles, it is better to avoid suspicion if the elders are not around .
"Young Master Huo, how often does the contract change?" Dialect asked the most important question straight to the point.
"Change every three years, but as long as you follow the above conditions, it is possible not to change for 30 years." Huo Jiacong handed the contract written by Huo Zhang to Dialect, and he finally understood why he listened to Huo Zhang and Chang Yuan just now. The conversation was awkward. The truth of the matter is that these two are husband and wife. Don't underestimate otaku. Otaku is constantly evolving, and otaku is the ultimate evolution.
Dialect took over the contract and looked at it carefully. It was indeed much more lenient than ordinary contracts. They only needed to pay for the seeds and cubs and the charcoal fire in winter. All other equipment was provided by the owner. If you hand in the truth, you will continue to renew the contract, "Young Master Huo, you won't make money if you are so loose."
"I have plenty of money, and what I want are things." Let's not talk about food. Even Wu Yi can see that he is a foodie. Fortunately, what he doesn't know is that Wu Yi thinks he is so obsessed with food. Because of the sequelae of wandering and being a beggar, if Wu Yi knew about it, he would soon become a red-hot one.
Chang Yuan and Dialect looked at each other, completely unable to understand what the young master of the rich family was thinking. There are so many things that you can't finish eating at once, shouldn't you just exchange them for silver?But as the kid said, he is not short of money, and it will benefit him a lot if they sign.
"In that case, we've signed it." Dialect made a final decision, and he still has the final say on this family.
While talking, Huo Zhang also brought people in. There are really not many villagers digging food on the [-]-acre land, so representatives of two families and the village head also came.In the end, under the witness of the village chief, Huo Wei, the grandnephew of Huo Zhang’s sixth uncle, took over six acres of orchards, and the second son of the village chief took over twelve acres of crops. The remaining twelve acres were more difficult to manage. The only ones were Huo Zhang who contracted several of them.
Now that the food problem has been solved, Huo Jiacong doesn't plan to live in Huojiacun. After all, Rainer is his guardian in name, so he should wait in the church and check the place where the house is built.An otaku is an otaku, only if he has a house can he live in a house. Anyway, he got a lot of money from the hands of the apprentice, and the next step is to solve the housing problem.
You say buy?The one he bought is not as comfortable as the one he designed himself. He has so much food to store, so he has to build a cellar and ice cellar or something.Besides, the house is a lifetime thing, and he has to design it carefully.
No.20 Take what you need seven times
After all, he found out that the luminous pearl was not dedicated to his father, but abducted into Qishu's Zhongshun Palace.It's not a day or two for the father to be partial to the sixth brother. He offered it up and it was cheaper in the end. Others are too embarrassed, so it's better to exchange some money in the hands of the seventh uncle.Women love to spend money, so his pockets are still a little tight.
"Xiao Wu, whenever you have trouble, you can go to Uncle Qi to fix it." Seeing Tu Yu's obsequious expression, Tu Yu raised his forehead. Is it easy for him to act like this idle person? The older he gets, the more suspicious he becomes. If it wasn't for Xiao Wu, he wouldn't be a clique for personal gain, so how many eyeliners would have to be added around his mansion.
"Uncle Qi, you guessed wrong this time, my nephew definitely didn't cause any trouble." Tu Yu waved his hand to signal Wu Yi to put the box on the table beside Tu Yu, and opened it smoothly.
"What is this?" The transparency of the crystal ball is very high, and it is said that the luminous pearl is not so round and natural. Tu Yu suddenly thought of Xiao Jiu's luminous bead the size of a pigeon egg, and instantly realized, "How can that little bug have So many good things."
"My nephew intercepted Xiao Chongzi's letter. It was written in distorted Spanish. It is certain that Xiao Chongzi did fly back. It is not surprising that there are some good things. The man named Reina is said to like to travel. These things are probably collected from various places.”
There is someone under his command who is proficient in Spanish. In fact, he has never understood why his ancestors stipulated that the royal family must always pay attention to foreigners who come to court.
Therefore, these princes always thought that their ancestors were dissatisfied with foreigners, especially the generous rewards given to the Zheng family in Taiwan who expelled the Dutch and the Cui family in Macau who expelled the Portuguese, which made people confirm this idea.
It's a pity that the ancestors once again refreshed everyone's cognition. Except that foreign businessmen are not allowed to make friends with imperial officials, they have no right of residence and can only rent, and the treatment they receive is no different from that of Chinese people.Of course, this is only on the surface. The ancestors stipulated that all foreigners are not allowed to own land in Dashun, and generations who dare to sell land and houses to foreigners are not allowed to take the imperial examination.
Moreover, the merchants can only take away goods. All information about the dynasty, even a piece of paper, is not allowed to be taken away. Instead, foreigners are welcome to bring some books from outside the region. If a merchant finds useful books, they can just hand them in. Minus a year of say.
However, every foreigner who enters the country will go through strict inspections, and a general understanding of the identity and background of the visitors must be obtained. For example, missionaries have to register at the Yamen, and the church is also funded by the imperial court. Missionaries have no property rights.
"Then you won't have any trouble helping him to establish a household registration." Even though Huo Jiacong is still a child, Tu Yu doesn't want him to be trained by a foreigner and change his position in Dashun.
"The whole world knows a saying, people who are not of my race must have different minds." Tu Yu suddenly laughed when he thought of Huo Jiacong's temper, "That's a little slob, every time he says something slightly complicated, he gets impatient Now, I’m afraid to avoid trouble.” Thinking of Wu Yi saying that Yun Ke Lai involved the sixth prince, he retreated as soon as he heard it, and he felt happy.
"Just pay attention." Tu Yu also felt that he was worrying unnecessarily, so he changed the topic to the luminous bead again, "You always go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, so let's get straight to the point and say what's wrong."
"Since we have Xiao Chongzi's way, my nephew wants to open a treasure shop." The prince will also be in a situation where he has a lot of cash, and Tu Fu also knows that the dynasty stipulates that the clan and people with fame are not allowed to compete with the people for profit, but There is no Zhuangzi shop, people like them will starve to death just relying on the little salary, okay? There is a Zhuangzi shop in the woman's dowry, so don't big men still care about women asking for money?
"Although things are rare and expensive, you are sure that little bug is in stock." Good things are what everyone wants, and he doesn't believe that foreigners don't like rare things. Dashun Dynasty's shop selling Western goods has A lot of things are exported to Dashun because they are flooded in their own country and are no longer used.
"Then just call the little bug over and ask if it's okay." Tu Fu really wanted to earn some pocket money, so Wu Yi had to accept his fate and go to the chapel to guard, and after he sent Wu Yi away, his expression changed .
"It's not a problem to carry Wuyi all the time. You have to change it from time to time so as not to arouse suspicion." Tu Yu has always been very glad that he didn't have the opportunity to grab that chair with his brother Huang. Look at how he ranks his son. A, B, C, D, Wu, Ji, Geng, Xin Ren, each of the nineteen people who said they were secret guards were actually eyeliners had a headache. These dark guards have all followed their new masters. It is hard to say how many of them are loyal to the emperor.
"Wuyi is loyal, it's better than not knowing whose eyeliner it is." Wuyi's loyalty should indeed be appreciated, but it's a pity that all his loyalty is dedicated to the emperor, since he is the emperor's person, he will make the best use of it.
"It's Xiao Liu who tripped you up again?" Tu Yu also knew that Brother Huang was very biased, and he didn't know what kind of pillow noise the women of Zhen's family made, and named Xiao Liu Zuo. Wasn't this poking at the prince's heart? ?It's good now, let alone the prince's heart, even the prince's seat has been pried away, and the positions of the eldest prince and the third prince are also in jeopardy.
Tu Yu was annoyed when he thought of the four kings and eight princes and the Jiangnan Zhen family, and became more and more arrogant after following his ancestors to become aristocrats. He blatantly helped Xiao Liu suppress the wives and wives of other princes, and dragged the prince down abruptly. , the eldest prince and the third prince are almost abolished.Fortunately, the fourth prince still lived under the Zhen family woman, and the emperor brother seemed to have noticed something wrong, and suddenly showed signs of missing the prince, and the people in the court saw the wind and began to have the voice of restoring the prince, otherwise it would be The world of the six princes is over.
"Then who is Lin Hai?" Tu Fu knew that the Rongguo Mansion and the Zhen family were old in-laws, and suddenly learned that Lin Hai's daughter had entered the Rongguo Mansion for three months, and he always felt like the wind was coming.
"Lin Hai." Tu Yu suddenly thought of another person, and unconsciously burst into a smile, "Lin Hai is your father's man, and he is also loyal to the crown prince. He was jointly promoted by your father and crown prince."
