Gu Qi, she just wants to farm

Chapter 37
There is no drought in Jiangzhou Prefecture, and the grain production and harvest of the fields have been good in recent years.

However, because Jiangling County is close to the border of Yuzhou and affected by the disaster in Yuzhou, in fact, in the past three years, the price of food under the jurisdiction of Jiangling County has also risen again and again.

If it weren't for the fact that there were grain bans between the state capitals in Dakang (grain produced in various places, if there is no official seal of the state government, it is not allowed to cross the border for private sales), I am afraid that the price of this grain will fly to the sky.

That's it, the first two years could not stop grain merchants from stockpiling grain in private.

Take rice as an example, from the original two taels of silver and one stone to the current four taels of silver and one stone.

I heard that the most expensive time can be sold for six or seven taels of silver and one stone, but it was suppressed by the government in just a few days.It was only by strictly punishing grain merchants who raised prices and forcibly controlling grain prices that they could avoid chaos in Gangneung County.

"Das Kapital" says: "As soon as there is a proper profit, capital becomes bold. If there is a 10% profit, it is guaranteed to be used everywhere;

With 20% profit, it will be active; with 50% profit, it will take risks; with 100% profit, it will dare to trample all human laws;
With a 300% profit, it would dare to commit any crime, even risk hanging its head. "

No matter how strict the control of Jiangling County's government is, the price of food in Jiangling County is still much higher than that in other places in Jiangzhou Prefecture.

The price of wheat in Jiangzhou Prefecture is lower than that of rice. Freshly harvested wheat that has not been ground and hulled can be sold for one tael of silver per stone after drying, and one or two and a half silver in Gangneung County.

Those who patronize the newly harvested fields at home, except for the corn, the rest can be worth seven or eight taels after deducting the grain tax and miscellaneous losses and labor.The value of an acre of land on the top.Ordinary people are really not so generous to give away.

Gu Qi didn't want to steal food, but he didn't want to do useless work, and he didn't want to make a loss-making business that could not be explained in the future, so he had to let Yaxing be a witness, keep a record, and liquidate it later, what is the amount? .

Early the next morning, Gu Danian took the blueprints that Gu Qi had drawn overnight, and went to the stone quarry across a village to the west with the master craftsman.

Gu Qi went to the village chief's house to get the land deed, and by the way, he asked the village chief about a gentleman in the village who was both knowledgeable and willing to choose a good day.There are quite a few of them.

A surnamed Li is an elder in the Li clan.And because of his seniority, he has a high prestige among the Li clan.

One surnamed Song has nothing to do with several big surnames in the village. He was a teacher in the town, a scholar, and he returned to Xiaoqi Village to live in peace when he was old.

The other two are younger, they are the descendants of the children in the village to study, and because of their knowledge, they will also help to do some things that are named and counted.

Although he is on good terms with the village chief's family, the Gu family is not from the Li clan after all, so it is not appropriate to ask the help of the uncles of the Li clan.What Gu Qi liked more were the two young scholars. The young people were easy to deal with and had few rules, making it easier for them to settle things.

However, what Li Village Chief meant was that Gu Qi had better go and invite Song Lao Xiucai first.

Scholars, farmers, business, and scholars are welcome wherever they go.

Xiaoqi Village is wealthy, and there are a few farming families, but most of them only know a few words for Qi. When they grow up, they can find a good job with some knowledge.

There are very few people who can really get the title, and it is rare for the Li family to have the title of Tongsheng.

But Xiucai is different. Xiucai goes to the next level by raising people.Juren can be recruited as officials, and although scholars cannot be officials, they have the qualifications to talk to one of their parents.

You don't have to kneel when you see an official, and you can also be exempted from the money and grain of the land and the poor and corvée.It is completely different from ordinary people.

The entire He Song Town, together with the next ten miles and eight townships, consists of three scholars, one of whom was hired from the town's academy.

Song Lao Xiucai, although he has retired from the academy, his majesty is still there. Even the village chief will respect Song Lao Xiucai when he sees him in Xiaoqi Village.

"I don't know if you want to ask Old Song for help. What's the taboo of you?"

"Song Lao is a kind person, you can ask your father to bring some rice, meat and eggs, and then give a gift of [-] yuan."

Whoever has a major event will let the person in charge of the family come forward. This is the rule, and Gu Qi also understands it.

After thanking Village Chief Li, Gu Qi had just returned to the house with the title deed when he saw a donkey cart parked in front of him.

When the driver saw Gu Qi coming back, he got off the driveway with a smile: "It's Miss Gu, you can wait until you come back. Your family's land deed is doing well, and it will be delivered to you today."

The person who came was the same person who had received the Gu family at the tooth bank a few days ago.

Gu Qi opened the courtyard door to welcome people in and poured tea: "Yesterday, I talked about looking for you. It just so happened that you came here today, so I just asked.

The previous landowner never sent anyone to harvest the grains on the several acres of land in my family.If the wheat isn't ripe, we'll be fine waiting.

But now I see that the wheat is already ripe, and if it is not harvested, it will rot in the ground.How do you say it should be? "

"This" Yaren obviously didn't think of this: "The former owner of the land purchased by Miss Gu is surnamed He, who was not originally from Xiaoqi Village, but lived in Hesong Town. , Later, when the business became bigger, he ran everywhere in Gangneung County.

I heard that he bought these several acres of land and hired people to help plant them. I thought it would be a little troublesome to take care of, and that's why we wanted to get rid of it.

When we passed the deed before, we reminded him that the grain should be collected by himself.He also agreed, but he didn't expect that no one would come to collect it after so many days. "

"Then can you guys go look for him again?"

"I'm afraid it won't work." Yaren wondered: "Then He Dalang, he said he would go to the prefecture when he passed the land deed. It is estimated that he won't be back in ten days and half a month."

"Then there are other people in the He family? What about the wife, daughter, father and brother of Huo Dalang? They can always call the shots."

"He Dalang didn't marry and have children, and he didn't see his parents and brothers at home. He was alone all the time." Saying Yaren, there was a little embarrassment on his face.

Gu Qi frowned.It's really troublesome to be alone.
