Picking Up a General to Plow the Fields

Those seeds were still in the big sacks when they were distributed by the government. Everyone only checked the accounts according to the amount they should have allocated, and they did not even take a look at the seeds.

Lian Fangzhou only needs to open one of the bags, save the rest of the unsold ones, and take the rest away.

"There's one more thing," Zhang Lizheng smiled and said lightly as a joke: "Yesterday afternoon someone in Shangcun asked if they would accept the cotton seeds from them, and said they would sell them, I smiled and said I don't know. He said let me ask for help and come back tomorrow!"

Lian Fangzhou was overjoyed and said with a smile: "I have to collect more than 5,000 catties of this cotton seed. If there is, it will save me if I have it! It's just—"

Lian Fangzhou paused and looked at Zhang Lizheng with a somewhat embarrassed smile: "I haven't been free these days, and no one else in our family can do this! As the saying goes, nothing is annoying for two masters. Uncle Lizheng, if you have If I’m free, I’d like to ask you to help collect it. This is different from our village. If I let you help in vain, it would be a bit unreasonable! This is actually quite tedious, and I have to stay at home all day. You can’t do anything else! The person who does it needs to be able to write and read the scales, and it has to be able to hold the ground to save people from making trouble! There must be a channel to release the news in advance. I think, Even if I dare to say something bold, I will ask you for five dollars a day, and I will charge you for four days. Do you think it will work?"

Niu didn't really go away, just listening with his ears outside the door!I heard Lian Fangzhou say that five dollars a day is two taels in four days!

It’s not tiring at work, just sitting at home for four days can earn back two or two!Don't do it if you are a fool!

Niu was afraid that Zhang Lizheng would refuse, "Hula" opened the door and said with a smile: "Fangzhou, you are so polite! You have said that, where can your uncle Zheng refuse? This is a rejection, too. It’s not close to humanity, isn’t it! I’m not boasting, it’s like the conditions you mentioned, except for him, there is no second person in this village!"

"Auntie really wanted to go with me!" Lian Fangzhou clapped his hands and laughed, his eyes lightly swept, and said with a smile: "Then this matter..."

Just as Zhang Lizheng opened his mouth, Niu clapped his hands and smiled decisively: "Yes! You have said so, how can it be impossible! Isn't it?" As he said, he stared at Zhang Lizheng, his eyes wide open, and he dared Do not agree to try the position.

Zhang Lizheng smiled bitterly, and said to Lian Fangzhou: "It's okay, anyway, I don't have anything to do with the slack now! It's just that two taels of silver are too much."

"Not much at all!" Lian Fangzhou hurriedly smiled: "To be honest, if you ask someone to do this, I, I don't worry! Two taels of silver, how can it be too much!"

"Fangzhou is not short of money now!" Niu gave Zhang Lizheng a blank look, and tentatively asked Lian Fangzhou with a smile: "I heard that you have a cousin in Shuangliu County? This time your family wants to grow cotton is her idea... and money?"

Rumors are always spread with wings.The news spread so quickly!Lian Fangzhou secretly said in his heart, "Haha" vaguely smiled, noncommittal.

It's just that the expression fell in Niu's eyes, making it even more certain.

"It's okay, why are you still pestering here, don't hurry to work! The whole Scorpion is stinging!" Zhang Lizheng said in a bad mood.

Niu chuckled, "Then you guys said, I'm going first! Fangzhou, I'm going first!"

For the sake of two taels of silver, the Niu family felt even more close to Fangzhou.

Lian Fangzhou responded with a smile, and saw that she went out before talking to Zhang Lizheng again.

The place of Zhang Lizheng's house is not too wide. Lian Fangzhou intends to transport these sacks of seeds back from the city in the afternoon to be stacked in the attic.By the way, I bought thirty or forty large sacks in the city in the afternoon and handed them to Zhang Lizheng to pack the seeds.

After all, when people in other villages sell it, they are different from those in this village. They are all bought from their own villages before they are delivered.

Lian Fangzhou took the opportunity to talk about the twenty or so acres of wasteland at the head of the village and expressed his desire to buy it.

Zhang Lizheng gave her a surprised look, but didn't ask much, after a little thought, he smiled and agreed.

It is an unowned wasteland, and it is good to be able to sell it to make some money for the village.Lian Fangzhou thanked him very much, and said that he would go to the county town to talk to Liu Jia, the local guard.

This land is next to the village, so you have to talk to Lizheng first, but the thousand acres are unnecessary.

Having said these things, Lian Fangzhou got up and said goodbye, and said by the way, he would bring the silver over at night.

Zhang Lizheng resigned very much, but Lian Fangzhou naturally refused to agree.

After Lian Fangzhou had left, the Niu family didn't know where he came from, and Zhang Lizheng said in vain, "You are also really, people are rich now, and you still have to say no, what is'a couple of silver is enough!', if it is. They really followed it, seeing you crying, there is nowhere to go!"

"You think everyone is like you!" Zhang Lizheng glared at her: "I warn you, next time someone comes to the house to talk about something, you are not allowed to eavesdrop, let alone run out and smash!"

The Niu screamed twice and angered Zhang Lizheng. When he saw Zhang Lizheng's stern face, he smiled and said, "Thank you, I know, I know! I can't do it without eavesdropping! It's not enough to put in a hole!" I went busy while talking.

Zhang Lizheng rubbed his forehead and smiled helplessly.She didn't know how many times she had said this, but in the end it was the same as if she hadn't said it.And he knew the result was the same, but he couldn't help but always talk about her every time!

This mother-in-law is hopeless!

However, Zhang Lizheng's mouth curled slightly, and he swept the beard on his chin with great satisfaction.Two taels of silver...

After Lian Fangzhou returned home, the family had lunch. She, Lian Ze and A Jian had a rest, and drove the donkey cart to the city.

When I arrived in the city, I went to Liu Jia and told him about it.Of course Liu Jia will not refuse when business comes to the door.Moreover, Lian Fangzhou made a purchase and sale of more than 2,000 acres of land with him at once. She bought more than 20 acres, and he didn't think it was strange at all. He didn't even ask a question. He just smiled happily. In the morning, people from Yamen will be taken to take measurements.

Liu Jia smiled to Lian Fangzhou again: "Lian girl, do you just buy dry land? Would you like to take a look at the paddy fields? I just got 60 acres of good quality in my hand, and it's in your Dafang Village! You can plant it, a very good field. It's an absolute bargain!"

Lian Fangzhou was startled, but it seemed that he could buy it if he wanted to.The money in hand is still loose, enough for all kinds of expenses this year.
