Buddhist palace maids want to be rich

Chapter 51 Rent Payment
Jiang Zhixia naturally didn't know that Aunt Li had accidentally leaked the matter of her infertility, and she didn't know that Matchmaker Zhu was thinking about telling her to be someone else's stepmother.

However, even if you know, Zhixia doesn't care, maybe you will say that the leak is good, the leak is wonderful, and the leak is croaking.If it is leaked out, there will always be a matchmaker to come and propose a kiss.

Jiang Zhixia's thoughts were all on going to Zhu Cuilou to deliver the drawings and get the bonus.

I don't know how much I can get?I get a little excited just thinking about it.

On the morning of the first day of October, Jiang Zhixia got up early, washed up, had breakfast, and then began to read casually with a book and wait for the passage of time.

If you want to get money, you can't go early in the morning, it seems like asking for debt.

People here are still somewhat superstitious, thinking that if you pay out the money early in the morning, you will not have a good profit for the day.

Therefore, no matter how urgent Jiang Zhixia was, he did not dare to go to the door of Zhu Cuilou to ask for money early in the morning.

Jiang Zhixia just read the book like this, while missing moments from time to time.

At the end of Sishi, Xiaoman came in from the door and said vividly that her mother, Aunt Zhang, was going to cook something delicious today.

Aunt Zhang's cooking skills were very average.

After all, she was just an ordinary country woman, she didn't have any good ingredients, and she had never seen so many condiments.Later, after arriving at the Changlong Dental Shop, I learned how to cook for a period of time from the woman in the Dental Shop.After arriving at Jiang Zhixia's house, Zhixia loves to eat and can cook.Therefore, Aunt Zhang followed Jiang Zhixia to study food, and now her skills are getting better and better.

Zhixia had Xiaoman to talk with, and felt that the time was not so difficult.

Suddenly, Aunt Zhang knocked on the door.

"Girl, there's an ox cart outside the door, saying it's rent." Aunt Zhang's face was beaming.This rent collection is a great thing, how can you be unhappy?

"Pay the rent?" Jiang Zhixia was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that he still had a small village outside the capital with more than ten acres of land.At this time, isn't everything harvested, come to pay rent for yourself?
"Quick, please go to the reception hall in the front yard. I'll go there right away." Jiang Zhixia put on his shoes excitedly and walked out.It was Xiaoman who held her back and put her in a fur coat.

Jiang Zhixia hurried to the front yard, passed the corner gate, and saw a bullock cart entering the yard.Beside the bullock cart stood Niu Zhuangtou and his son whom he had seen last time.

"Girl, please." Niu Zhuangtou and his son saluted Jiang Zhixia when they saw Jiang Zhixia coming out.

"Excuse me." Jiang Zhixia looked at the dozen or so bags on the ox cart, a little puzzled.

Why didn't all the harvest come?Is there a car behind?
Zhixia walked around Zhaobi and saw that Uncle He had installed the sill and was closing the door.

Full of doubts, Jiang Zhixia led Niu Zhuangtou and his son to the living room, then asked them to sit down, and asked Aunt Zhang to serve tea.

"Have you had a hard time traveling?" Although full of doubts, Jiang Zhixia asked first.

"It's not hard, I packed the car in the morning and brought it to the girl. It's just that the ox cart is moving slowly, and it's this hour that the one who is in a hurry just arrived at your place." After Niu Zhuangtou thanked Jiang Zhixia, he hurriedly replied .

"The weather is fine this year, isn't the harvest good?" Jiang Zhixia didn't know what to ask, so he could only continue to exchange pleasantries.

"Indeed, the weather this year is not bad, and the harvest is quite good. The girl's land is all high-grade and medium-grade fields, and the tenants tend the crops carefully. The high-grade fields basically harvest 150 catties per mu, and the medium-grade fields The field is about one hundred catties. In this way, a total of two thousand catties of grain has been harvested." Niu Zhuangtou said proudly.

In turn, it reported in detail, "The tenants have left 66 catties. According to the [-]% rent agreement, they should have sent [-] catties to the girl. Because the grain officials went to the village to directly collect taxes. , so we directly paid [-] catties of tax. The land tax is [-] catties, so we paid [-] catties, plus the small tax and tax adjustment, which happened to be a whole number, and we paid a total of [-] catties. So This time I sent [-] catties to the girl." Niu Zhuangtou knew that Zhixia was a court lady before, so he might not know how to pay taxes, so he explained it in detail.

But Jiang Zhixia only heard the first words, and didn't listen carefully to the latter words at all.

"What? Two thousand catties?" Jiang Zhixia was shocked when he heard the number, "Is it two thousand catties in total for fifteen acres?"

"That's right. The girl's land is quite fertile, and the tenants are taking good care of her. The weather is good this year, so doesn't it mean that the harvest is good?" Niu Zhuangtou was shocked when he saw Jiang Zhixia, and thought it was Jiang Zhixia who had a high yield. Shocked, therefore, even more proud.

And Jiang Zhixia was so shocked that he was at a loss.

In the previous life, generally one mu of land could produce more than 1000 catties, the high yield was 100 to [-] catties, and the low yield was [-] to [-] catties.But now, this kind of high-quality field is only more than [-] catties, which is more than ten times worse.

Two thousand catties is a lot to say, but nowadays, if you sell only grain, you can only sell it for more than ten yuan per catty, and two thousand catties are only sold for 30 taels of silver.

Jiang Zhixia finally understood why when she bought the land, Liu Po ​​said that such a small land rich family looked down upon them.

Isn't it hard to see?Two thirty taels of silver is not enough for a big family to go out for a meal.

Jiang Zhixia felt extremely lost.

Blame her for thinking too simply.Mistakenly mistook the yield per mu in this life for the yield per mu in the previous life.

In this life, I have never learned about farming in the palace, so I take it for granted.I thought that with these lands, I would be able to eat and drink without worrying about it --- I can't be wrong, indeed, I would have no worries about eating and drinking, but if I want to live a more comfortable life, I really can't count on this Zhuangzi and the land.

"Okay, you guys are quite tired from the journey, go back after lunch later." Jiang Zhixia was a little lost.

"Okay, girl. Can you see where this grain is unloaded?" Niu Zhuangtou didn't notice Jiang Zhixia's emotion, "In addition, the fruit tree in Zhuangzi's backyard has produced some fruits, and brought some good ones for the girl to try."

"Thank you Niu Zhuangtou. The food will be unloaded in the inner room of the East Wing. Uncle He will help Niu Zhuangtou." Jiang Zhixia listlessly arranged for Uncle He to help Niu Zhuangtou and the others unload the grain.

He also asked Xiaoman to help Aunt Zhang cook, so that Niuzhuangtou and his son could stay for dinner.

After everything was arranged, she was left alone to sit in the living room in a daze.

After unloading the food, Xiaoman accompanied Zhixia back to the backyard.

Uncle He chatted with Niu Zhuangtou and the others in the front yard for a while.

When eating at noon, Aunt Zhang came in with a food box and prepared a meal for Zhixia, and called Xiaoman to her room to eat together.

In the front yard, Uncle He had lunch with Niu Zhuangtou and his son.

After eating, Niuzhuangtou and the others said goodbye to Zhixia and left.

Jiang Zhixia only took a few bites before putting down his chopsticks, and asked Xiaoman to clean up the table.

Xiaoman was very strange when she came to clean up. She didn't understand why the rent was collected, and the girl was not happy because there was so little to eat.

But looking at Zhixia's gloomy face, he also wisely didn't ask anything, and hurriedly packed up his things and left.

In the kitchen, Aunt Zhang was also very surprised to see the almost untouched food, and kept asking Xiaoman, but Xiaoman couldn't tell the reason.

Jiang Zhixia lay listlessly on the couch table, feeling drained of energy.
