Escape from the desert

Chapter 245 Good guy, dare to earn the county magistrate's money!
As soon as County Magistrate Li helped Jiang Wen up, Shen Xingyuan squinted his eyes, shook his folding fan a few times, seemed to have thought of something, and said, "Brother Jiang, don't worry about the guarantor in the scientific examination."

He paused, and continued: "Although I have no official position, I have a reputation. I will write the letter myself. Brother Jiang, you can rest assured about the scientific examination."

As a county magistrate, it is difficult for Li County Magistrate to personally vouch for Jiang Wen, and he has to find two scholars. Although it is not difficult for him to find someone as a county magistrate, he will inevitably need Zhou Xuan.

But Shen Xingyuan was different. He was one of the few princes who had participated in the imperial examination, and he had indeed achieved fame. It was a trivial matter for him to guarantee a person to send for the examination.

Moreover, being able to get closer to Aunt Jiang and make a good friend with a brilliant literary talent is simply killing two birds with one stone.

"That's a good relationship! Fifth Master's prestige is much greater than mine, so you can rest assured, little friend Jiang."

Jiang Wen thanked Shen Xingyuan, and told him intuitively that this person was not ordinary, and he would not dare to despise someone who could make Li County Magistrate even more courteous.

"This batch of grain is 16 catties in total. My mother said that I will give you [-] cents per catty. Master Li, do you think you want someone to weigh it again?"

Lin Dong, who had been guarding the grain all the time, opened his mouth. He watched Huang Xiancheng go to pick up the grain, and seemed to want to open it to have a look, so he immediately moved a bag down, and said to Li County Magistrate while opening it.

County magistrate Li nodded. He knew the latest grain prices, and the price Aunt Jiang offered was considered a low price.

Seeing that Lin Dong opened the rice bag, he reached in and grabbed a handful. The grains were full and the golden-colored grains flowed down his fingers. The county magistrate was dumbfounded.

These grains are quite different from the ones he has seen before. Each grain is as big as a drum, and the quality is excellent. It is fuller than the high-quality polished rice in the granary. If it is sold in the grain shop outside, it will only cost a catty. There are more than 22 essays.

Although it has not been shelled yet, the rice has a strong fragrance. This is still the best fragrant rice. Aunt Jiang really gave him face.

"More money? Ask the county magistrate for money?" Shen Xingyuan asked in surprise.

Lin Dong scratched his head and said with a naive smile: "You should, the county magistrate also needs money to buy things, and my mother has already given a very low price. If it is shipped outside to sell, it will cost more than this amount per catty!"

Shen Xingyuan: "..."

Good guy, this Aunt Jiang is really not an ordinary capable person!The county magistrate dares to earn money!And earn so blatantly!

"Yes, yes, there are more Aunt Jiang's high hands. I think this price is very good, and I will let people pay the money." County magistrate Li was deeply afraid that Lin Dong's dialect would change again.

He winked at Huang Xiancheng, and Huang Xiancheng immediately turned to get the money.

"My lord, this batch of late rice was obtained by my sister-in-law by accident. It is easy to cultivate and has a strong acceptance of the growing environment. As long as it is taken care of properly, the yield will not be too low. What my sister-in-law means is that it is better for Master Li to make the whole batch. All the food is kept for planting.”

Jiang Wen clasped his hands and said, he turned sideways so that County Magistrate Li could see the grain more clearly, "Whether this batch of late rice is reserved for grain seed is distributed to the future or to various places, as long as it can be planted next year, the entire Dahua Dynasty The harvest will greatly increase blessings."

"That's right! The quality of this batch of grain is extraordinary!" County Magistrate Li also looked cautious.

Hearing this, Shen Xingyuan stepped forward and grabbed a handful. The grains in the palm of his hand were golden and plump, indeed a little more swollen than ordinary polished rice, and the yield was so high.

He immediately turned his head and said solemnly to County Magistrate Li, "I'll transport this batch of late rice myself. Mr. Li... Cough cough, Mr. Li, I mean, it's best to save all of this batch of late rice."

Almost leaking, Shen Xingyuan closed his fan abruptly and forcibly changed the subject. The end of the fan covered his lips, hiding most of his expression.

"My lord, this is 400 taels." Coincidentally, Huang Xiancheng also brought silver notes at this time, 16 Wen per catty, twenty-five thousand catties, exactly 400 taels.

Pass the money to Lin Dong, "Take this money, and thank your mother for me. I will visit Lin Family Village after the imperial order comes down."

When the late rice incident is reported, Jiang Yan's name will once again create waves in the Imperial City. This time, I am afraid that she will gain even more fame than the last time she improved farm tools. After all, ordinary people will benefit most directly from the improvement of farm tools, but the increase in grain production will not only benefit It is the people, and it is the whole country.

When the imperial court came down last time, he would definitely go to Linjiacun again.

Lin Dong carefully folded and wrapped the banknotes with a handkerchief, and then put them on the chest of his inner coat. Although he was used to seeing silver coins during this time, he was always cautious, afraid of losing them.

With such a large sum of money, Lin Dong didn't dare to stay longer, declined the meal left by County Magistrate Li, and led the big guy to unload the car and leave.

It takes a whole day for Linjiacun to go back and forth to the county seat. Lin Dong and his team can't let them run with them on an empty stomach.

Lin Family Village.

Jiang Yan is choosing a suitable wedding dress in the shopping mall. The girls here usually embroider wedding dresses before getting married. The main reason is that they are poor and cannot afford to go out and spend money to buy them.

Jiang Yan was reluctant for her two daughter-in-laws to do it by themselves, and now that the family is not short of money, she simply bought ready-made clothes directly. If there were no suitable ones in the town, she would choose two sets in the mall.

The workers in the factory also have to prepare for their annual leave. When Jiang Yan was managing the company, there was a special department responsible for the annual ceremony. She hadn't paid attention to it herself, and she didn't know what to prepare for everyone for a while.

"Mother, what are you thinking?" As soon as Lin Bei and Erbi left the room, they saw Jiang Yan who was in a daze in the main room.

Ever since it got cold, a firewood was lit in the main room. Although the walls were blackened and the roof was smoking, the whole room was warm.

Jiang Yan turned over the potatoes in the fire with a wooden stick, "New Year's is coming soon, when your sisters-in-law's wedding banquet is over, the factory will almost have a holiday, I was thinking, what kind of New Year's gifts should I give to the employees in the factory .”

Lin Bei also frowned and thought about it. In the past, when the elder brothers went to work in a wealthy family, the boss would send some food every festival and new year. Although it was not much, it was a rare good meal for them during the year.

"In the past, my brothers received rice cakes, peanuts, soybeans, and whole grains when they went to work. Some generous employers would even give some pastries. Mother, should we give these too?"

Lin Bei pursed his lips slightly. There are so many people in the factory, and everyone sent them down, which is a big expense.

Jiang Yan nodded, "Every household in the village has surplus food to live on this year. Besides food, other things are also available."

She plans to give everyone a fixed red envelope. When she just graduated, she will go out to work. The annual gifts given out by the company every year are seafood, dried goods, household appliances, etc., which are either uneaten or unusable, and only when receiving red envelopes She is the happiest.

So Jiang Yan felt that the people in Linjia Village should be the same, and they should also like red envelopes more than receiving food.
