Chapter 67 Find the land to open up wasteland

Fourteen forgot to tell Xiao Yan, and when he realized it, he had already said his name.

Hearing Tian Qiao's question, she didn't want to hide it.Nodding his head, he said, "Yes, it's Xiao Yan."

Fourteen thought that the other party would continue to ask why.

But Tian Qiao didn't ask any more, nodded after listening to her answer, and skipped the matter directly.

"Qilang, Fourteenth Niang is here." He called into the room.

Fourteen looked at Tian Qiao, this sister-in-law is interesting.

People in the village are very fond of gossip, and Shishi has a deep understanding of this.

Some of them like to gloat and watch other people's jokes, and some of them simply like to gossip, probably because they are idle.In short, the atmosphere of the whole village is like this.

This sister-in-law of Seventh Tang was somewhat beyond Fourteen's expectations.

"Has Fourteen come?" Xiao Qilang came out from the main room, "Why did you come here? What happened?"

"Nothing happened, don't think too much, cousin." Fourteen said: "There are some things that need to be discussed with you, so I brought Ah Yan here."

"What's the matter? Come in and talk."

"I'll go and see if there is still water." Tian Qiao walked into the house first.

"Sit down."

"Sister-in-law, don't add sugar." Seeing that Tian Qiao was going to add sugar to the water, Fourteen quickly stopped him, "I don't like sweet drinks, just drink plain water."

Tian Qiao thought that Shisi was being polite: "Add some sugar to make it taste better. What's so good about plain water?"

"What I said is true, I really don't like sweets." Fourteen stopped her, "Sister-in-law, I'm not polite to you."

"Shishi has never liked sweets since he was a child." Xiao Qilang also said, "Don't put sugar in the water."

Hearing this, Tian Qiao put down the sugar jar.He poured a bowl of white water and put it in front of Shishi.

She poured three more bowls of water and added sugar to them one by one, which should be for the three children.

In fact, Wei Yan doesn't like sweet food very much either, he only eats one piece of sweet-scented osmanthus cake and mung bean cake each time.But knowing that Tian Qiao was enthusiastic, Shisi didn't stop him.

If you don't like to drink, that little guy will definitely not know how to drink.

Sugar is expensive, both caramel and cane sugar.Even a well-off family in the village will only put sugar and tea in the water when important guests come to the door.

Tian Qiao's ability to entertain them with candy is not only related to their family's good life, but also to him.At least, she is not a stingy person.

"You brothers and sisters, talk here. I have to turn over the dishes outside, so let's go there first." Tian Qiao brought three bowls of sugar water to the yard, told the children to wait for it to cool down, and then went out to continue working. .

Normally, when Xiao Shuchang and Xiao Yuhe saw the syrup, they would have been waiting for it to cool down.But today, with the sugar given by the fourteenth aunt, they naturally didn't pay that much attention to the sugar water.

They were particularly interested in the kitten brought by their little cousin.

"Fourteen, what's the matter with you?"

"I asked you to find bricks and tiles for me earlier, let's stop for a while." Fourteen said, "I don't need to look for it for now."

"what happened?"

When Xiao Qilang heard it, he thought it was something changed with Heli.

"It's nothing." Fourteen quickly explained, "There is another matter I want to ask my cousin to do for me. Let's put the bricks and tiles aside for now. I'll ask someone else to find it for me."

"Anything else?"

"Correct."

"what's up?"

"Looking for land."

"Land for building a house?" Xiao Qilang said, "It's easy to find. There are wastelands everywhere around our village. The main reason is that bricks and tiles are hard to find. If bricks and tiles are found, the house can be built immediately."

"It's not land for building a house." Fourteen said, "I'm looking for land that can be planted, and I plan to grow things. And the amount needed is also large, and it's best to contiguously."

"I came here today to look for my cousin. I wonder if you have time, can you take me for a walk around the wasteland around the village?"

"Wasteland? Are you going to open up wasteland?"

"That's the current plan."

This era is characterized by vast land and few people, and a large amount of uncultivated land.

If you want to open up wasteland, you only need to pay a certain amount of money to the government, and you can write the land under your name.

Ordinary farmers do not open up wasteland, mainly because their labor force is limited, their own land is too busy, and they have no energy to open up wasteland.

Moreover, due to the low productivity, spending energy on land reclamation may not necessarily yield much profit, and often the gain outweighs the loss.

"Fourteen, have you really thought about it?" Xiao Qilang felt that Fourteen was whimsical, "Open up wasteland, are you alone?"

"And you brought Ah Yan with you, where do you have the time and strength?"

"Of course I'm not alone." Fourteen smiled and said, "Let's look for land first, and I'll hire people to open up wasteland later."

"Hire people?" Xiao Qilang's eyes widened, "You hire people to open up wasteland?"

"What do you want to grow? Do you know how much it costs to hire people to open up wasteland?"

"It's because I don't understand much, so I came to invite you, Brother Church."

Xiao Qilang stared at Fourteen, and Fourteen let him stare.

After a while, he seemed to have calmed down, and he was sure that Shisi was serious.

"Fourteen." Xiao Qilang thought about how to make his tone sound more comfortable, "It's not that my cousin doesn't believe you."

"It is really……"

"Whatever cousin wants to say, just say it."

"You probably only think about making money by opening up wasteland and farming, but have you ever considered that if it doesn't make money, it will lose instead?"

"You still have the child with you, and you still want to get along with..." He lowered his voice, "You still have to get along with each other."

"Even if you have some money now, you can't use it casually."

"It's not something like us ordinary people who can open up wasteland. It takes a lot of money to support it."

"Fourteen, listen to your cousin's advice on this matter, and think about it again."

"Cousin, I know you are doing it for my own good."

Fourteen tried to make Xiao Qilang believe what he said.

"I've already thought about opening up wasteland."

"First, I don't open up wasteland to grow food, but to grow spices. Cousin should know that the price of spices is completely different from that of grain."

"Second, it's not that I have no income, I only eat what I have. So you don't have to worry, my follow-up funds can't keep up or I will lose money."

"Third, I have made peace with Wei Zhigao."

"You... already divorced?" Xiao Qilang stood up in shock, and he was afraid that his voice would be heard outside, so he could only suppress the tone with all his strength.

"When did it happen, why don't I know? The last time I went to see you, didn't I still make up with you?"

"Just these two days." Fourteen lied, "Didn't I come here to tell you?"

"You...you are so courageous, you!"

"Where is Ah Yan?"

"What Ah Yan?" Fourteen was puzzled, "Isn't he in the yard?"

"I'm talking about what to do with Ah Yan, who has he been with?"

Xiao Qilang thought, the Wei family would never give this grandson to Shishi.
