Reborn Nongmen's little lucky wife

Chapter 579

Tao Nanny has been with Gu Jinli for more than ten days, and already knows the temper of this little boss. Hearing her nondescript words, she didn't think it was inappropriate. If it were any other man, he would have married a wife and had children long ago, but he kept his promise and waited for his son."

Aunt Hong's name is Hong Sui.

The two were talking, Sanqi came over to Nanny Tao with a bottle: "Mommy, we've run out of pearl powder for scar cream, come and get half a catty."

Sanqi, like Mai Dong, used to be a drug boy in Xuanhufang, but he was more stable and quiet, so he followed Kan Liu to make the scar cream, and it was estimated that he would take over the scar cream in the future.

Mai Dong is a more active person, following Mu Tong, he may take Mu Tong's class in the future.

After hearing this, Mother Tao took out a booklet and wrote down when and when he came to get how much pearl powder and what to do with it, and asked him to press his fingerprints.

This is the management method after Madam Tao came, and everyone in the pharmaceutical workshop must do this in order to be able to check and have evidence.

After Sanqi pressed her fingerprints, Nanny Tao asked Gu Jinli, then got up and went to the medicine cabinet in the house to get half a catty of pearl powder for Sanqi.

Before leaving, Gu Jinli asked Sanqi: "How is Uncle Liu today? Are you still stupid?"

Sanqi is smart, he is not very old, and he is familiar with Gu Jinli again. He laughed when he heard this: "You are stupid. The day before yesterday, I was so dazed that I almost overwhelmed the scar removal ointment."

Gu Jinli was anxious when he heard this: "This is not possible. The cost of a pot of scar removal ointment is at least 20 taels. If the pot is broken, you will lose money."

Sanqi said: "Don't worry, Xiaodong, I will watch Uncle Liu and won't let him make mistakes again."

Afraid that Gu Jinli would blame Kan Liu, he hurriedly said, "I'm much better today, I just stayed there for a while and smashed a clay pot."

Pottery pots also cost money.

Gu Jinli thought: "This is not the way, we have to let Sixth Uncle Kan's wishes come true as soon as possible."

Sanqi looked at Gu Jinli, what did the little boss know?I wanted to ask, but Kan Liu had already found him. Seeing Sanqi, he said, "Sanqi, why are you so slow to get a pearl powder? Hurry up and take it back, and sift the pearl powder twice, I'll use it later."

"Hey." Sanqi hurried away with the pearl powder.

Seeing Kan Liu, Gu Jinli smiled, laughing until Kan Liu was furious, and hurriedly asked, "Small, what's wrong with you, my boss?"

Gu Jinli trotted up to Kan Liu, raised his head and asked, "Uncle Liu, do you want me to help you marry a wife?"

Bang, Kan Liu's old face was blushing, and he stammered, "No, no, no... Uncle 666 can do it."

Gu Jinli: "What can you do, what can you do? You are stuttering, how can you marry a wife?"

Kan Liu shook his head and insisted, "Thank you, little boss, but I can do this myself."

He stopped stuttering!

Gu Jinli looked at Kan Liu, thinking of Aunt Hong wearing a woman's hair style, and thinking that Aunt Hong must have encountered something in these years, so after seeing Uncle Liu again, she didn't immediately continue her relationship.

"Okay." Gu Jinli agreed, and then encouraged: "Little Sixth Uncle, come on, you will definitely be able to do it, and the infatuated man will definitely not be let down."

come on?

Kan Liu thought, the oil is quite expensive, and you have to save it for cooking, and you can’t afford it, but he knew that Gu Jinli had good intentions, so he said with a smile: "Well, don’t worry, little boss, little uncle Liu won’t let you down. .”

After speaking, she nodded to Nanny Tao, turned around and left.

Tao Nanny looked at Gu Jinli, smiled and shook her head... Mr. Wu is right, this girl is interesting, following her will not be boring.

With the addition of Madam Tao and her group, the production speed of the pharmaceutical workshop has been accelerated a lot, and the [-] bottles of tooth powder for Yuanzi Pharmacy were produced in less than ten days.

Gu Jinli asked Ah Shi and the others to continue making tooth powder: "This thing must be easy to sell, so make more preparations, so that we won't be able to produce it when Yuanzi Medicine Store buys a lot of it."

"Hey." Ah Shi was very happy, busy with tooth powder every day.

Da Nian is also very happy, the little boss reuses his sister, the future of the sister will not be worrying, he is happy, and he puts in a lot of effort when working and learning martial arts.

Time passed day by day, and at the end of September, the government issued an official document to leave for corvee service on the eighth day of October, for a period of two months, and return home for the New Year on the tenth day of December.

Knowing that they were going to serve corvée again, all the villages became distressed. Some families even cried bitterly because of Zou Xiancheng's sale of corvée men, for fear that their men would be sold or die in corvée. on the construction site.

Corvette is to recruit civilians to do free work for the government, such as digging canals, or building city walls. In short, it is a drudgery that can kill people.

The county magistrate Xu knew that the common people were very resistant to serving the corvee because of Zou Xiancheng's sale of corvee men. He was afraid that the common people would make trouble, so he sent scribes and yamen servants to explain to the farmers from village to village. The place where I went back to serve the corvee was in Linhe Mansion, where I went to clean up the silt in the Huai River, so the place was close.

As for the work, it is tiring, and it is possible to be sucked into the Huai River to die, but the place is close, unlike before, the places to go are far away, and the corpses cannot be transported back even if they died in the place of corvee.

This time, I was able to go to such a close place for Tianfu County because of Zou Xiancheng's affairs.The imperial court felt that they had to be appeased, or they would have to go to Zhongzhou to build the city wall.

When Gu Jinli heard this, he frowned, and asked in wonder, "Why didn't the court just exempt Tianfu County from the corvee?"

Zou Xiancheng made such a big incident, but if the Emperor Chu was smarter, he should have exempted Tianfu County from the corvee. The kindness of charity is not a loss to the court, but it can subdue the gratitude of the people. Heart, but the court did not do it.

Gu Jin'an said: "When I corresponded with Brother Zheng and Brother Shangguan, they mentioned that some ministers in the court advocated exempting Tianfu County from corvee this time, but some ministers disagreed. They said that because of the previous few During the month of war, the walls of many cities were smashed by the victims, and this time the corvee work is heavier than before, so we can't reduce the number of people."

"And if you don't want to go to corvee this time, you need to pay twice as much money as in previous years, and you have to pay ten taels of silver per person... I heard that there may be an additional poll tax."

Gu Jinli: "..."

Da Chu is about to end.

Only ten taels of silver can cover one corvée quota. Do people in the court know how much money these ten taels of silver are for ordinary peasants?

The Jianghuai, Jiangnan and Jiangnan are well-known and rich places where rice can be grown, but farmers can earn ten taels of silver for a year of hard work, not to mention Northwest, Zhongzhou, Northeast and other places, those are barren and cold places. Zizi worked so hard that he couldn't save three taels of silver for a year.

Gu Jin'an sighed: "Brother Zheng and Brother Shangguan also feel that the court has passed, and Mr. Shangguan and the others have been persuading him for a long time but they have not been able to persuade the Emperor Chu to change his mind."

Brother Zheng has a good relationship with him, and he revealed two words to him: lack of silver.

There has been a two-year drought in the northwest of Great Chu, and there has also been a military disaster. The treasury has long been empty, and the Emperor of Chu is now searching for money everywhere.What worries Brother Zheng even more is that some people are urging the Chu Emperor, saying that the aristocratic family has accumulated wealth for hundreds of thousands of years, and they should contribute to the country at this moment.

If the Emperor Chu is really persuaded, Da Chu will be a bloodbath again.

There is no need to worry about the Zheng family keeping up with the Shangguan family. They are relatives of the emperor, but other aristocratic families are not so lucky.
