128 Handover
Because it was getting late today, the two parties agreed to go to Zhuangzi the next day for the handover.

After finishing speaking, Nanny Wei went back in her own carriage.

Liu Po ​​took Jiang Zhixia home in the carriage of the tooth shop, and handed over the brokerage fee and other matters.

After breakfast the next day, Jiang Zhixia asked Uncle He to hire a carriage, and then took Aunt Zhang to Zhuangzi.

When they got to the Zhuangzi, Mammy Wei led Jiang Zhixia to visit the Zhuangzi, and at the same time asked someone to call the Zhuangtou to the front yard, saying that he wanted to hand over information about the farm.

While waiting for Zhuangtou to come over, Mammy Wei first confessed to Jiang Zhixia: "Miss Jiang, this Zhengzhuangtou is our grandma's dowry. I took their family back this time. However, Zhuangzi There is also a deputy head of the village, surnamed Xing, he is not the son of our family. Our grandma said, so I gave you their deed of sale. He is an official slave. It was the time of the first emperor. Sin, an official slave who was sold. An official slave can only be a slave for the rest of his life, and cannot be released from the bond when he is amnesty."

When Mother Wei mentioned this, she also sighed endlessly.

Fortunately, today's emperor is still a sage. Even if the servant's family angered the emperor, the emperor would just search his home and repatriate him, and his life would be saved.

"Our master, the original servant, is a Jinshi from the south of the Yangtze River. After he became an official in the capital, he bought land bit by bit, and finally made it to this scale."

Madam Wei said melancholy.

Now, the farm has also been sold.In fact, both the lady and she knew that in good years, the crops in the farm were excellent.

However, the master's big family all lived in rich and noble villages. After their homes were ransacked, they had only a little money from their private houses, so they reluctantly returned to the hometown.

The big family are all people who have never had a hard time, so they complained a lot.

After receiving Madam's complaint letter, the young lady thought for a long time before deciding to sell her dowry and give all the money to her natal family to help.

After all, the dowry belongs to the young lady, even the mansion has no right to say anything.

"This deputy farmer is a good hand in crop management. Back then, when my master took over these fields, the last seller also gave his deed to my master. Later, I found out that he is really good at doing things, managing the farm He also has a lot of experience with tenants, so he was promoted to be the deputy head of the village. It has been several years. He is also old and has only one daughter, but he is counting on to support the old age in the village. The girl can take a look .If you like it, you can continue to let him be the head of the village. If you don’t like it, you can stay and be a fool. They are not the children of our family, and it is really not easy to bring them into the mansion. "

Madam Wei explained carefully.

She also wanted to explain that this Zhuangtou was not the son of their family, so there would not be so many intertwined relationships.

This Zhuangtou wants to be an official slave all his life, which means that he is a slave in every family.There is not that much loyalty to the original owner's family.

This farmer, who is old and has only one daughter who can't get rid of the contract, focuses on growing grain and managing people, which means that he will not have too much selfishness.

In this way, it's hard to say anything else, at least it's good to spend a little time in a short period of time.

With such a large farm, many families like to use their own homes to have children.The whole family is in the hands of the Lord, so naturally they must be loyal to the Lord.

However, Nanny Wei and her family's young lady also heard from Granny Liu.This girl Jiang is a maid from the palace, she doesn't have any family to have children, and she doesn't have any capable people, so she thinks about giving her this Zhuangtou.

Jiang Zhixia thanked him first.I was also secretly thinking about the manpower in my heart.

This farm is naturally different from the small farm before.

The previous small farm had only fifteen acres of land, with a farm the size of a farmyard.Therefore, the Niuzhuangtou who just signed the contract at that time was used, and no one was bought to manage it.

The original plan was that when it expires on June [-] this year, it will be re-purchased and managed.

However, Jiang Zhixia didn't want to bother with the little rent he collected on the first day of October last year.

Now this farm is a thousand mu of land, a big village.This output is at least 3000 taels per year in a good year.So, I really need someone to take care of me.

If it's one of our own, it's naturally Uncle He.Their family is really faithful.

Even she had arranged fields and banknotes for them at the beginning, and wanted to set them free.In the end, they still turned to Chu Tiankuo for help, blocked their own escape, and insisted on not leaving afterwards.

Although, Jiang Zhixia didn't understand why they didn't want to be free.

However, it turns out that their family is a people who can stand the test.

However, even though Uncle He was farming in the countryside.However, he is only a tenant after all, and if he really wants to manage the tenants, he may not have management experience.

Besides, she didn't want Uncle He and Aunt Zhang to live apart for a long time.

As for this Xingzhuangtou, his body deed is in his own hands, so he can't get out of it no matter what.

Therefore, if I treat him better, not to mention making him do his best, at least he can work hard.

Thinking about it again, the harvest is basically 3000 taels, and she knows it all.How greedy can this village head be?

When the water is clear, there are no fish.

If this Zhuangtou is a responsible person, he can stay.If he really doesn't do well, he can only sell it.

She doesn't have the ability to train bad minions well.

After thinking about this, Jiang Zhixia continued to visit calmly.

This Zhuangzi is huge, and he is divided into almost three entrances.

The first entrance is the concierge, the large kitchen and rooms of various sizes.

The second entrance is the main courtyard.It is also the main room and wing rooms and large and small separate courtyards.

The third entrance is a big back garden.The spring of the hot spring is in the back garden.The original owner's house built a large bathing greenhouse above the spring.The greenhouse is divided into an inner room and an outer room.

The inside is naturally a spring, and a big bath has been built.The outer room is a lounge.There are various furniture such as wardrobes, dressing tables, and beauty couches.

Because Zhuangzi is too big, Jiang Zhixia simply looked at Zhuangzi and understood the main layout.

After Jiang Zhixia understood the general situation, he followed Madam Wei to the reception hall in the front yard.

As soon as I passed the corner gate, I saw an old man in his 60s and [-]s and a girl in her teens standing in the yard.

Jiang Zhixia paused. It seemed that this was Zhuangtou Xing and his daughter that Nanny Wei had mentioned.

When these two people saw Mother Wei and Jiang Zhixia coming, they knew that this was probably the new owner.

So, he bowed respectfully.

"Xing Zhuangtou is here? Is Lan girl so old?" Wei Mama said pleasantly.

This is Zhuang Zi, the dowry of the original servant girl, so Mammy Wei has more dealings with Xing Zhuangtou.

"Yes." Xing Zhuangtou said with a smile.

Xingzhuangtou is about the same height as Jiang Zhixia, a little over seven feet.On the old face, you can see the hard work of the previous few years.

Mammy Wei said that Xingzhuangtou is 55 this year.Looks like he's around 60 years old.

I heard that before Xingzhuangtou was bought by the former servant's family, he had been doing rough work on the Zhuangzi.That is to say, after seven or eight years as the head of the village, it can be regarded as raising some.
