Chapter 7 Understanding People's Livelihood
Li Mo said that he was going to sit at Village Chief Ye's house, which scared Village Chief Ye enough, thinking that because of Ye Chen's case of stealing sheep, he had left a bad impression on the county magistrate, and he was going to be dismissed from his post.

Do you want to copy my house, but the old man is not corrupt.

Li Mo didn't understand why everyone was so afraid of her. What she didn't know was that people were always afraid of officials, and small officials were afraid of big officials.

The village head is also paid, one hundred cash a month.

The life of the village chief's family is also very difficult. There are five mud-brick houses, but compared to most villagers, it is already very good.

The wife of the village chief took out the precious tea leaves that she was willing to take out during the Chinese New Year.

The villagers didn't leave, they just waited outside the house of the village head.

The village chief's wife brought up the brewed tea and looked at Li Mo expectantly and nervously.

Li Mo didn't seem to notice it, so he took it up and drank it directly. The village chief's wife finally breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that the county magistrate has not disliked our peasants.

Li Mo asked Village Chief Ye straight to the point: "Chairman Ye, what do the villagers usually do for a living?"

After hearing this, Village Chief Ye smiled wryly, and then sighed heavily: "Well, we farmers don't have any skills. We basically grow rice. When the harvest is good, it will be better. There is very little left over from the tax, not even enough to eat. There are many men in the family, and they will go to the county or provincial capital to do part-time work during the slack season."

You may not understand the harvest of ancient farmers. When the weather is good, the yield is at most 400 catties per mu. When the season is poor, it is normal to have one or two hundred catties.Hard work is only enough to pay taxes, rich wine and meat stink, and roads are frozen to death.

The low grain yield is affected by several factors: First, there was no chemical fertilizer in ancient times, and animal manure was relied on.Second, there is no hybrid rice.The third is no pesticides.

Due to the low grain production, people do not have enough to eat, and the chickens, ducks, geese, and pigs raised all eat whole grains, so there are fewer livestock raised. This vicious circle continues, and the result is more and more poverty.

Li Mo regretted why he didn't study agriculture and economics back then, but became a special soldier, what happened?God, is it too late to wear it back now?

God: Does this have something to do with my penny?
Village Chief Ye sighed: "Fortunately, your lord has come and abolished exorbitant taxes, otherwise we ordinary people would not be able to live even more."

This is telling the truth. The first thing the original owner did when he took office was to abolish exorbitant and miscellaneous taxes, which led to the use of the old mother's dowry.

Li Mo proposed to take a walk in the village.

At this time, the second season of rice has just been planted, and the seedlings in the field have not yet turned green, which means it is not yet time to fertilize, so there are no people in the field.

The mountains in Yejia Village are not very high, and the villagers usually go up the mountains to chop firewood for firewood. There are quite a lot of ponds, and the lotus flowers in the ponds have already begun to produce lotus pods.

Li Mo: "Village chief, do these ponds have owners?"

Village head Ye: "They are all owned by the public. At the end of the year, the water will be drained, the lotus roots will be dug out, the fish will be caught, and everyone will share them."

Li Mo: "Have you ever thought about contracting out the pond to an individual? The village collects rent on an annual basis, and the rent is used for the construction of roads and other public facilities in the village."

Village head: "No one is willing to contract, and the fish cannot be sold, and no one wants the lotus root."

In this day and age, no one wants lotus root, no one buys fish?

What's happening here?
Li Mo was puzzled: "The fish is so delicious, why can't it be sold? The lotus root is so nutritious, why no one wants it?"

The village head looked at Li Mo like a fool, then turned his eyes away, moved his mouth, but stopped talking.Maybe you want to say that this is how officials are, how can they understand the sufferings of the people.

Song Min came over and whispered, "Sir, you don't know something. This fish is too fishy, ​​so everyone doesn't eat it. Only those who can't afford meat will eat it. The lotus root is too hard, so everyone usually only eats the lotus pod."

Li Mo: "How do you eat lotus root?"

Song Min: "Stir fry and eat."

Fuck, you guys are geniuses.

The original owner's hometown is a land of fish and rice in the south of the Yangtze River. The fish, shrimp, and crabs are delicious. Why is no one saying that they are too fishy? Is this the difference in food culture?

No wonder no fish is sold in the vegetable market.

What angered Li Mo the most was that he saw villagers feeding cows with large bundles of black-skinned sugar cane.

Li Mo was so angry that he asked Village Chief Ye: "What's the matter with this sugarcane? Why are you feeding it to the cows?"

Village head Ye said as a matter of course: "My lord, is this sugar cane? We don't know. We only know that this thing is not edible. If you eat it, you will be poisoned and die, but cows are fine after eating it."

The villagers who followed kept whispering, thinking that the county magistrate was very unreliable, as if they didn't understand such a simple matter.

Damn, Li Mo thinks this world is already fantasy.

It was a waste of money, such a good thing was used to feed the cows, Li Mo felt that she had nothing to say, maybe God sent her here to save the suffering.

Li Mo: "Did the people who died after eating sugarcane eat it around Qingming?"

Village Chief Ye: "I don't know, it's the older generation who say they can't eat it, and none of us have eaten it."

Li Mo:. . . . . .

Now this season is not the time to eat sugar cane, the sugar cane will be sweet only in winter.

And because no one takes care of them, the sugarcane does not grow very high, and the density between the nodes is very dense. Even in winter, although it is very sweet, it is very hard and hard to bite.

After visiting the whole village, Li Mo also knew what to do next.

Declining Village Chief Ye's request for lunch, Li Mo returned to the county government office with a few yamen servants, and at the same time, there were more than [-] big fish forked from the pond.

On the way, Song Min asked Li Mo eagerly, "My lord, can you teach me how to spear a fish!"

Song Min is a head catcher and has a bit of kung fu.

Just now I saw Li Mo spearing a fish so handsomely, I really want to learn it.

Li Mo: "Okay, I will teach you next time."

Back at the county government office, Li Mo demonstrated his cooking skills in person, including braised fish, steamed fish, fish head with chopped pepper, fish with pickled cabbage, fish head and tofu soup.

I took all the lunch for the yamen servants. These fish did not put too much seasoning, but they were full of color and flavor.

We are all rural people, and this is not the first time to eat fish. The fish we usually eat always has a fishy smell, so we don't like to eat it.

Although I haven't seen how Li Mo cooks fish, but it's so delicious, I can't wait to swallow my tongue.

Seeing everyone's delicious food, Li Mo said, "Tonight's barbecue has grilled fish, what do you think?"

Song Min immediately understood what Li Mo was thinking. He wanted to sell the fish so that everyone would like to eat it, and there would be a market for the fish in the fish pond in Yejia Village.

He couldn't help but took a deep look at Li Mo. At this moment, Li Mo seemed to be heartless, and followed up with everyone to discuss the possibility of grilling fish.

With an innocent smile and an unaffected demeanor, it is said that she is only this year, but she has the common people in her heart, and she has great ambitions, and she must follow the adults well in the future.

After the meal, Li Mo plunged into the study, wrote out the situation of Yejia Village, and then wrote a plan in detail, which was about the development plan of Yejia Village for the next three years.

Take Yejia Village first, oh no, start, and start visiting other villages tomorrow to see if you can find business opportunities.

Once the plan is in place, the important question is where these agricultural products will be sold after the results come out.

Unlike the Internet and TV in modern times, everyone can easily see the specialties of a certain place.

But here is different, either word of mouth, or living habits between two adjacent places, so it is difficult to sell many things to other places.

Should we train salesmen to specialize in the sales of agricultural products?
Damn, I'm the county magistrate, I still have a company, and I train salesmen, the sky is thundering.

However, the poor life of the villagers always reminded her that this is the people under your jurisdiction, and because of your inaction, your people's life is more difficult.

There was an extra dish of grilled fish that night. It was not expensive, and you could get a big piece for only two cents. It was more cost-effective than barbecue, and it tasted good, so it was sold out quickly.

There was a dish of pickled fish beside the grill. The diners didn't know what it was, and no one asked, until a restaurant owner Chen saw it and asked Li Mo, "My lord, do you want to sell this dish?"

Li Mo was busy with the skewers in his hand, without raising his head, he said, "Sell it, it's waiting for someone who is destined."

Boss Chen is very personal: "My lord, I think I am the one who is destined."

Li Mo glanced at him: "How can you say that you are destined?"

Boss Chen: "My lord, tonight is grilled fish and this dish made of fish. If Mr. Chen guesses well, you are promoting this fish. Mr. Chen bought this recipe. You can also buy fish from someone recommended by Mr. Chen." Buy in hand, what do you think?"

Li Mo couldn't help but take a few more glances, he is a talented person, he even knows what I think.
