Chapter 148 Reward 100 Taels
Because of this incident, the rumors in the village that Huatian Village would pay more food tax sooner or later because of the Jiang family's fertilizer recipe, were dispelled without attack.

Now not only the county magistrate, but even the lord of Fu Zun who is far away in Changping Prefecture personally named their village "Qinxi Village", meaning to let them work hard to cultivate, and so on.

Now even the Lord Fu Zun supports them to grow more food. If you don’t believe it, you just don’t believe the village chief. Don’t you even believe the Lord Fu Zun?
This naming is tantamount to giving Huatian Village a dose of reassurance.

Mr. Fuzun is just about to say clearly, Huatian Village, you continue to do it, and Mr. Fuzun will personally support you later.

The news of this naming quickly spread like wildfire, spreading throughout several nearby villages.

Not two days after the name was given, another official came to the village carrying things. This time, the master didn't get off the horse, and read the official document directly on the horse.

It is said that this is a reward of 100 taels from the Lord of Changping Prefecture, and it is a special reward.

How to distribute the 100 taels is up to you villagers to decide. Just don't cause trouble because of the money.

After the master read out the reward, he also left without stopping.

As a result, the villagers who originally thought that giving a name was insignificant suddenly exploded.

100 taels!
Some villagers have never seen so much silver taels in their entire lives. Hearing the news, every household stopped eating and rushed to the village chief's house.

Ask something about how the 100 taels are distributed.

The village head held the 100 taels for no reason, because he felt it was hot.

How to divide 100 taels? The Jiang family came up with this fertilizer recipe, and the others just followed suit.

Now there are still some people in the village who don't like this fertilizer recipe.

The average score is out of the question.

But no matter which one takes the majority, there will be opinions on those who get less.

So the past few days have been worrying about the village head.

After Shen Chenlan and the Jiang family discussed, they felt that half of the money could be shared equally, so that each household would not have much money.

The remaining ones are used as public funds of the village.

Some old people in the village have long proposed to build an ancestral hall or something, but this time the lord of the Fuzun bestowed a name of "Diligence Village", proudly hanging it up, writing it into the genealogy, and recording it in the annals of history.

Let future generations admire.

After all, it is their current generation that has achieved such achievements.

As soon as this was mentioned, the elders in the village felt that there was no need to share the 50 taels. It would cost a lot of money just to build the ancestral hall, and it would cost money to repair it every year.

In addition, a period of about five years can be set in advance. In the first five years of Huatian Village, the cost of casting stone powder will be paid by the village's public funds, and each household does not need to pay for it.

This suggestion immediately won the support of the villagers.

What's more, most old people fully support the construction of ancestral halls.

As the saying goes, if there is an old man in a family, if there is a treasure.

Which household does not have a treasure offering?
Therefore, many people who still wanted to get money were suppressed by the elders in the family.

So this is settled.

The village head decided that after the Spring Festival and the beginning of the next year, he would start inviting people to build the ancestral hall.

At the same time, people are planning to build a memorial archway at the entrance of the village, with the words "Qinxi Village" written on it, so that everyone passing by can see it.

Because of this incident that happened a few years ago, many people from Huatian Village felt that they had a lot of face when they went to visit relatives in nearby villages.
