Picking Up a General to Plow the Fields

A Jian was startled and smiled: "No matter what the result is, let's face it together!"

Lian Ze took a grateful look at A Jian and said, "Brother A Jian said that! However, I still believe my sister!"

All three laughed.

After walking a little tired for a while, the three of them picked up a shady place and sat down and waited slowly.

When the sun was shining above his head, Liu Jia came with someone.Two escorts and one Qianliangshiye Zhao Shiye, who is in charge of the county's money and grain taxes.

Lian Ze saw the sharp eye first, and the three of them stood up to meet him.

"Lian girl!" Liu Jia beckoned to them and ran over to Lian Fangzhou with a smile: "Good luck girl, I am in a good mood to catch up with the county grandfather today, and the price is very good! Each mu is a total of one to seven dollars. , A total of 1,700 taels, if the money is delivered today, there is no need to pay for the official lease!"

Lian Fangzhou was overjoyed when he heard it, and hurriedly nodded and smiled: "Okay, let's do it today!"

The official deed is no more than two taels of silver, and the county magistrate is selling personal favors to them.After all, these two taels of silver are not worth mentioning when compared with 1,700 taels!

This favor is a kind of favor, and it would be a bit bad to decline.

Liu Jia led them to meet with Master Zhao and the two officers. After a few words of greeting, the two officers took out the compass and the ruler to measure.Master Qian Liang made a note of the boundaries on all sides, let Lian Fangzhou look at it again, drew the charge, and followed this to the official deed.

To do these things well, it was halfway through Shenshi, Lian Fangzhou smiled and said hard, and each gave a red envelope.I have to do things this time, even Fangzhou prepared some red envelopes in advance and carried them all with him.There are one or two, two and two, and there are three or five dollars.

The one for Master Zhao is two and two, and the two for the guards are five.

After Master Zhao and the three squeezed the red envelopes, the smile on their faces deepened, and they spoke more intimately and politely.

The group went back to the county town, Zhao Shiye and the two officers had a carriage, and Lian Fangzhou and the three were still riding in Liu Jia's donkey carriage.

Liu Jia took the time to tell Lian Fangzhou that the land was actually 1,360 acres. Naturally, Lian Fangzhou thanked him and bought some gifts for Liu Jia afterwards.

"I ran to Sanchakou in the past few days, and it is estimated that it can be done in three to five days! Then I will contact Girl Lien again!" Liu Jia smiled.

Lian Fangzhou smiled and said, "Okay, we have people in our family. If I'm not here, you leave a message and I will go to the city then!"

"That's right," Lian Fangzhou talked about another thing, and said with a smile: "I bought these land and I want to take advantage of the slack farming now and ask people to reclaim all the land. I don't know where I can get Ken to work hard. People? If Uncle Liu knows, please give some pointers!"

Liu Jia laughed and said, "Don't dare to be pointed! I'll take you to see Zhao Liu when I have time. He is well-versed in these things! He is the middleman who hires day labor in our city."

Lian Fangzhou originally meant the same, and he hurriedly smiled and thanked him.

After arriving at the county seat in a short while, Lian Fangzhou, Ajian and Lian Ze paid the money together, took the voucher, and only waited three days for the official deed with the voucher to receive the official deed. This matter was over.

Sure enough, Liu Jia took them to see Zhao Liu, and naturally he helped to say something nice.

Zhao Liu smiled and said: "Nowadays, most people are idle in the farming slack. Don't worry! Big Brother Liu has already spoken. I must do this for you beautifully! I must pick the young, strong and willing to work! You see how many people are needed, and I will lead directly to the ground."

Lian Fangzhou smiled and said, "This is not good for a while. We have to enter the city tomorrow, so I can trust you by that time!" Then he asked about wages.

Zhao Liu had no objection, and agreed with a smile, and said: "Now it is the slack time in the farming season. Whether the weather is good or the workmanship is good at this season, regardless of whether the lunch cost is twenty cents a day, it does not matter whether the lunch is 23 cents. Liu Brother explained to me, your job is to open up wasteland, it is very heavy, so the price is not cheap! If it is summer, the price has to be increased by half!"

As he said, he added another sentence: "What is the price and what kind of work, you can rest assured at this price, and keep the work for you beautiful! Those tree pockets and roots of grass roots have been planed clean and dug. Go down at least one foot deep!"

Lian Fangzhou is about to ask about this, she is not afraid of having enough funds to spend a little bit more, she is afraid that she will be tricky and foolish.

The wasteland reclamation work is not easy to do. If those tree roots and grass roots are not cleaned up, they will surely come back in the beginning of spring.Also, the land is already compact, and if you don’t dig deeper, the things you plant will never grow well.

Hearing what Zhao Liu said, Lian Fangzhou knew in his heart, smiled and nodded.

After coming out of Zhao Liu's place, the sun had gradually drifted to the west, and Liu Jia said he wanted to send them back.

They also had a hard day after following the run. Although it is not a waste of time, it is always more careful.Lian Fangzhou declined with a smile.

Liu Jia insisted on seeing them several times and refused to agree.

After Liu Jia was sent away, Lian Fangzhou smiled and said, "We have been tired these two days too, I'm afraid we will still be busy in the following days! Go, buy some meat and go back. We have to make up for it."

Lian Ze and A Jian both smiled and said yes.

Lian Fangzhou bought four catties of pork belly, two pork legs, and three or four large bones. He also bought some tofu and dried spiced seeds. Then he hired a car and went home.

"Sister, shall we talk about hiring a few people tomorrow?" Lian Ze asked, feeling that it would be too uneconomical to have to go to the city once for this.

Lian Fangzhou smiled and said, "I'm afraid it will take a long time to make it clear tomorrow! Then let's go to the blacksmith's shop to order some farm tools! You will have to use it then! By the way, look at the donkey and the donkey cart. "

Lian Ze said "Oh" to understand.

After returning home, every household was cooking and smoking, and even Fangzhou gave a few more money. The coachman smiled and thanked him and hurriedly turned back to the city.Lian Fangqing and Lian Che laughed and rushed forward to call brother and sister, of course, they also added a brother Ajian.

Grandma Sangu was surprised when she saw that she had bought so much meat: "Oh, why did you buy so much! When will I have to eat it!"

Lian Fangzhou laughed and said, "Tonight, make a small stir-fried pork belly and tofu stir-fried pork slices. Tomorrow you will stew the pig's feet and pull two radishes together from the vegetable garden! These days you have a lot of work and you have to be full to have energy. what!"

If there is no water in the soup every day, Lian Fangzhou will not be able to bear it without talking about others.

Sangu’s nipple said that, but she was actually happy in her heart and smiled and said: "Yes, I know how to clean up! Let's rest in your house! Qing'er, Che'er, you two will help me set the fire!"

Lian Che honestly promised "I'm going!" and went into the kitchen.
