Chapter 107

The fields connected one by one did not appear to be full of vitality. The crops that should have been green turned yellow. The farmers were carrying water to irrigate the fields under the hot sun, but it was undoubtedly a drop in the bucket in the face of drought.

The farmers in the field greeted Old Liu Tou one after another. Old Liu Tou nodded and smiled, and then said to Zhufeng: "It must be difficult to have a good harvest this year. Look at this land, it is so dry, I don't know what God is doing. When will it rain.

It's the rainy season, but there's not a single drop of rain. God, it's really killing people. "

Qingyu looked at the farmers with their trouser legs and shirtless arms, feeling sad. They all worked hard, but the weather was unpredictable, and the rewards were not proportional to their efforts, but they could only grit their teeth and persevere.

Chasing the wind couldn't help but sigh, there are so many suffering people in the world.Sighing suddenly, he asked about the field again: "What is the price of the field?"

The old head Liu also introduced: "I valued the land tens of miles around here. I have done countless deeds, and no one said it was unfair. The price I am telling you now is the normal price:
The land of Tian and Shi usually ranges from [-] to [-]; the land of 地 and Li usually ranges from [-] to [-]; Seven coins; He Zidi ranges from one or two to one, two or three coins;"

Chasing the wind was startled, "So expensive?!"

Old Liu was helpless: "A few generations ago, the land was not so expensive, but now most of the land is under the Zhuang system, and most of it is in the hands of the landlords.

They have plenty of money, and if others want to sell it, they will raise the price. If they don’t buy it, they will buy it at a high price. Gradually, it has become the current market. Otherwise, why are there few self-employed farmers?Survival is no longer easy, and there is no spare money to buy land.Most of them are tenants.

But the tenant land is also difficult, the land is in the hands of those few big landlords, they can get as much rent as they want, transfer the tenants today and raise the tenants tomorrow, forcing the tenants to nowhere, they will do whatever they say.

In the past, there was still a rule that those who did not use farm tools and cattle would get fifty or five points, those who used farm tools would get four or six points, and those who used farm tools plus cattle would get three to seven points.

Now, huh, huh, some unscrupulous [-] cents or even [-] cents, and the ones left in the hands of the tenant farmers are not even enough for a year's rations. "

"The life of tenant farmers is so unbearable." Chasing the wind stared blankly.

With his head behind his back, old Liu looked at the fields in front of him with his old wrinkled eyes. Many peasants in the fields were hard at work. Although the weather was bad, they were still trying their best to protect the fragile seedlings in the fields.
"Although the land is expensive, and I earn a lot as a middleman, it is really pitiful to look at these tenant farmers. I am also a farmer and I can empathize with them.

Farmers depend on the sky for their food, but the landlord doesn't care about these things, and stipulates how much a piece of land must give.

I, I just hope to see someone in my lifetime to change this land system. "

Both Chasing the Wind and Qingyu are silent for a while, and the sufferings of the people can only be seen clearly only when they go deep into the lowest level.Looking at the huge Yinzhou City, even in this troubled world, it is still prosperous, but this prosperity is piled up by countless people who are suffering.

After a long silence, Zhufeng asked: "It was said to be a normal price earlier, but what is the abnormal price?"

"What's abnormal is that the sky is dry now, coupled with the He family's suppression, the land prices in the hands of small landlords are kept down.

This is not the market price. I can't make the decision. I can only act as a middleman to reconcile the buyer and the seller. As for the price, you have to discuss it yourself. "

Qingyu recalled what the teahouse had heard, and asked, "I heard that it was reduced to five yuan per mu? Where is it?"

Old Liu couldn't help but glanced at her, "Hey, you kid still knows it. It's a land of profit. Originally, it started at one tael or eight yuan, but it was reduced to five yuan."

Pointing to a tile-roofed house not far ahead, "Look, here we are, that's right in front." Then he raised his voice, "Yang Zhuangtou, a distinguished guest is coming, come out quickly." Immediately, several dogs barked.

Yang Zhuangtou, who heard the sound from inside the room, came out quickly. When he saw Old Liutou, he greeted them happily, and led several people into the main room, and asked them to serve tea and snacks.Qing Yu smiled at her, and the little girl ran away with a smile.

Old Liu headed straight to the point, pointing at Zhufeng and said, "This is the boss Zhu from the city. If he wants to buy land, I'll bring him over to have a look."

Then he said to Zhufeng: "This piece of land is all owned by the Yang family, and all of them are land with the word '利' and above. When buying land, you must try to buy as fertile as possible, so I will bring you here to have a look.

If you like it, and you have reached an agreement, we can sign the title deed today. "

Yang Zhuangtou glanced at Old Liutou, and there was some questioning in his eyes, but he still smiled on his face, "Why don't we have a few sips of tea and then go to the field to have a look?"

Zhufeng was about to drink tea, but he heard that all lands with the word "Lei" were above the ground, so he put down his teacup and said with a smile, "I want to buy land with Hezi land." Before going out, Qing Yu told him to buy the most barren land.

"Hezidi?" Both old Liutou and Yang Zhuangtou were taken aback. Old Liutou knew that the boss didn't know the land, so he persuaded:
"Boss Zhu, you have to listen to my advice, buy land and buy fertile land, since it is Hezi land, how can the output be high, especially this year, if you buy that Hezi land again, you will really have no harvest this year. .

If you don't believe me, I'll take you to the field to have a look. The crops in the field are almost dry, and the tenant farmers can only sit on the ridge of the field in a daze every day, nothing to do. "

Zhufeng smiled and said affirmatively: "I know, I will buy Hezi land, [-] mu."

"Fifty acres?" Old Liu Tou laughed in surprise, "It seems that the boss is making a fortune, and he would rather buy fifty acres of poor land. This is the first time I have seen Old Liu Tou."

Yang Zhuangtou was a little curious, "Why did you buy so many Hezi land by boss?"

There is less than a hundred taels of silver in the pocket, so of course you can save as much as you can.Zhufeng muttered something in his heart, and said: "The magic effect."

Yang Zhuangtou chuckled and changed the subject, "Is this the first time you're going to the countryside?"

"My family just moved to Yinzhou City a few days ago." Zhufeng explained.

Old Liu Tou let out a "hiss" and felt a little embarrassed, "It's hard to find so many lands at once. Boss, let me tell you, if you buy so many lands, you can simply buy a piece of land. The price is Slightly more expensive, but better in management.”

"Is there a land connected with Hezi?" Zhufeng asked.

Old Liu smiled wryly: "You really only buy Hezi land? You don't want anything else?"

Zhufeng nodded: "Really."

"You have to give me two days, I have to find something." Old Liu got up, gave Yang Zhuang a bow, and was about to leave when he heard a shout from outside, "Is old Liu here? "

"I'm here." Old Liu said goodbye to Yang Zhuangtou first, then went out, squinted his eyes to see who was coming, smiled, and went forward, "What kind of wind brought Boss Tong here? The boss asked me to come here?"

Tong Yaowen laughed and arched, "No, I went to your house to look for it first. I said you were here, and I hurried to chase after you. I saw that I was sweating profusely from running." Wiping the sweat from his forehead while talking, but Seeing Zhuifeng and Qingyu walking out, he said "huh?" and stared at Zhufeng for a few more times.

Zhufeng went forward to bid farewell to Old Liu, "Then thank you for your trouble, I will come back to you in a few days."

Old Liu patted his chest: "Don't worry, wrap it on me."

After the two left, Tong Yaowen asked, "Who is that person?"

"The boss Zhu who just came to Yinzhou is a weird person. He wants to buy [-] acres of herringbone land, and he is also a layman who doesn't know anything about land. He doesn't know what to do."

Tong Yaowen also looked strange, "It's really strange, this person looks so familiar."

"Oh? It shouldn't be possible. They said they just moved to Yinzhou a few days ago." Old Liu said.

"It's weird, I don't remember seeing this person before, but it just looks familiar."

Yang Zhuangtou, who was in the room, came out and also knew Tong Yaowen, and hurriedly greeted Tong Yaowen, "Boss Tong, long time no see, please sit inside."

Tong Yaowen wiped his sweat and walked in, "I came today to buy land, two hundred acres of land and more."
