The peasant girl is not strong

Chapter 111 Convocation
Hongji heard Tang Butler said that he bought their honey at ten times the market price, but where is the honey?
My heart is mixed with joy and worry. Selling honey will definitely affect my daughter.

But I lost another good opportunity to make money. Who doesn't want to make money?

Besides, he, who didn't save a penny, needed money even more.

People say that a gentleman gets his money in a proper way. As a farmer, he is not a gentleman, but he also knows that this kind of money cannot be earned.

Not to mention letting others know more of the little daughter's secrets, then it can only be covered up with lies.

"Tang Butler, the honey really doesn't belong to our family. It belongs to a good friend of mine. He didn't want to disclose the news to others, so he gave it to me. I didn't expect my daughter to give the honey to your young master. Next time my friend is giving honey, I will sell this honey to you and give the money to my friend."

"Hehe, that's great, can my little boss go meet your friend and sell us all the honey from your friend."

"Tang Butler, I'll ask my friends when I have time! Now let's listen to what they say outside?"

Outside Lizheng's courtyard, when Lizheng was beating the gong, people from the neighborhood of their house had already come here first, asking Lizheng what's the matter?

"Folks, don't be in a hurry. Let's talk when almost everyone has arrived. We can't talk too much."

Li Zheng had stopped beating the gong, and told everyone to wait when asked.

The villagers who gathered here were all asking each other and talking about it, why did Lizheng summon them?

Someone saw Hongji, his father and daughter in the yard of Lizheng's house with sharp eyes, and Tang Butler, a wealthy family they had met.

"Hongji is at Lizheng's house, should I ask Lizheng to announce his apprenticeship!"

"Maybe it's more than that! Butler Tang can send so much precious wood today, will he find a craftsman in our village?"

"Tch, Hongji and his son are the only carpenters in our village. I think they are looking for Lizheng for other things. The disciples just said that most people want to go to his house to sign up. Where do they need to find Lizheng?"

"The analysis is quite correct. I asked Hongji before whether he would accept apprentices? My boy studied carving at his house, but he refused. Our boy learned it secretly at his house, but he couldn't learn it, and he didn't have a master himself. Teaching, how can it be so easy to learn."

"Hehe, that kid of yours is so stupid, you still want to steal a teacher? My kid is so smart that he didn't even learn it."

During the discussion, these people also inquired about each other, tearing each other down, and the three of them formed a falsehood. The more they talked, the louder they were, and people only heard a buzzing sound. The result of too many people talking about it was like a big market.

Li Zheng looked at these people's discussions with a mysterious face, and a little smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. If these people need to sign up, they still have to be on the list with him.

As long as he completes this business, he will not only receive money, but also let his son enter the factory as an apprentice.

Lizheng knew better that with such a performance, he would have more face in the ten miles and eight towns in the future, and the people in his village would become rich and powerful. Would the circle next door dare to fight for water conservancy to make things difficult for them?
Li Zheng even thought that he would hold his head high in front of relatives and friends in the future, and would not let his father-in-law say that he was useless when he went to his wife's natal home, and that Li Zheng was still so poor.

In fact, in the village, Lizheng doesn't have much salary besides talking, and usually supports his family by farming the land by himself. The village official is only a part-time job, and can't be regarded as a job.

In addition to doing things, he also has to go to the fields like the villagers. He is not much better than the villagers. The most important thing is that the rich men in the village speak better than him.

The so-called money can turn ghosts, Lizheng was thinking silently in his heart, if he had money, he would buy more land, and being able to grow crops was the foundation of a farmer.

"Lizheng, except for those who go out to work, the elderly, children and adults in our village are almost all here."

The main entrance of the village is surrounded by folks, there are already hundreds of people, and it is so dark that it is impossible to see clearly who is who in the daytime.

Some tall ones stood in front, blocking the sight of the short ones.

Lizheng knows the population of the village. There are more than 900 people. It is the slack time for farming. Those who have the ability and ideas will now find work outside.

"Okay, if the villagers who are not present during the day, please tell your family members at night, let's hold another meeting tomorrow morning, if it is completely passed, I will go to handle this matter with Steward Tang tomorrow."

Everyone doesn't know what Lizheng is talking about?
"Lizheng, you have to tell us what's going on?"

"That's how it is. Steward Tang is the richest Tang family in the county. Whoever opens up wasteland here at the entrance of the village buys a factory building, and whoever opens up wasteland at the end of the village will stand up first."

"It turned out that they were announcing the purchase of wasteland at the entrance of the village! Then why did they gather the whole village? It's none of our business!"

Some people began to discuss again that they didn't have a share in this business, and they looked at the village committee members with envy.

The people who opened the village at the end of the village all stood up. Everyone felt very happy to be able to sell the land, and those lands could only grow a little, and the position right at the door was not suitable as a foundation.

And there are also some graves surnamed Ye, the graves of the ancestors are there.

Among these people, there are also thorns. Some people think that McGrady is naturally good. If they don't pay a higher price, they won't sell it.

"Lizheng, you haven't said what price to give yet? Just say let us sell the land."

"Don't be impatient, everyone. Let me tell you everything one by one. The price of selling wasteland has a market price, and Butler Tang said that it should be supplemented appropriately. Don't think that you sold the land, but just brought it to yourself. Benefits, someone builds a factory in our village, but everyone in the village has a chance to be proud of it."

"Lizheng, tell me what can our village benefit from? They can get money from selling the land, and what can we get?" Those who didn't open up wasteland at the entrance of the village are jealous!

"Of course it is beneficial. For example, masons with skills or no skills may be able to work as coolies. When building a factory, workers must be recruited. After the factory is completed, apprentices and handymen may be recruited. This may benefit the whole village. Don't drop the chain at a critical time.

Butler Tang said that if he couldn't buy land at the end of the village, he would go to the next village to buy land. In the future, those who recruited apprentices or construction workers and masons there would always look for people from the village there. "

Some villagers heard that there was work to do, their eyes lit up, and they said to those who had wasteland at the end of the village:

"You can hear me clearly. If we don't sell the land to others, the benefits will go to people in other villages. Then don't watch others get rich and drool."

"That's right! We always compete with them for water conservancy, how can we give benefits to others?"

The villagers talked a lot, looked at Li Zheng for answers, and were very angry while talking. Compared with the three neighboring villages, only one village was the most unfriendly. They often fought over water conservancy. Marry Bu Shencun.
