After five years of teaching support, Daming became an empire on which the sun never sets.

Chapter 210 The Happy Life in Lujia Village 2
"It's more than that, Mr. also told the women in our village to stop binding their feet." Xiaoxiao, the pretty widow, said, "In the past, only women from princely noble families did not have their feet bound."

"Yes, sir, let the women in Lujia Village live like noble women." Dashan's daughter-in-law said excitedly.

It wasn't just their poor life that Qin Yu changed Lujia Village.

And their backward habits and thoughts.

Qin Yu's goal is not only to make them rich in life, but also spiritually.

"Okay, if you're grateful, the folks don't say it anymore. Mr. Qin, I'm not used to people being too grateful to him." At this time, the patriarch interrupted the crowd, "So we just need to keep the kindness of Mr. It’s enough to remember it from generation to generation.”

"good."

"good."

"As it should be."

"Whatever Mr. Qin asks us to do in the future, we will do what we do. There is absolutely nothing to say."

"We don't know how to thank Mr. Qin. In short, the men in Lujia Village can go through fire and water for him in the future." A male villager said excitedly, clapping his chest.

"The men in our Lujia Village are also bloody. For a benefactor like Mr., you can repay with death." Another man said.

"Whoever treats us well, we will die for whomever."

Now Qin Yu's words may be more effective than the imperial decree for the villagers of Lujia Village.

The emperor, after all, is too far away from them.

"Okay, everyone stop talking, let's share the money." The patriarch said, "There are 85 households in the village, and each family gets ten taels. Xiaoxiao and Da Zhuang's family gets more, and each household gets 20 taels of silver."

"Why do they share more?" a villager asked.

"Because Lu Dazhuang and his daughter Qingqian, when Mr. Qin was injured, they took care of Mr. Qin for a period of time. They also gave the injured Mr. porridge the only little rice left in his family." The patriarch said.

"If it weren't for Da Zhuang and his daughter, maybe the gentleman wouldn't stay."

"And Xiaoxiao, she has a good relationship with her husband. She also helps Lujia Village Primary School cook and wash her clothes. I'm so divided, do you have any opinions?"

"No comment."

"No comment."

"Give them more than ten taels of silver, which is absolutely right."

"Mr. Qin obviously takes extra care of the two of them. We treat whoever is nice to him."

The villagers were talking.

Soon, with the support of the elders of the second and third rooms, the villagers formed a long queue and began to receive money.

The villagers who got the real gold and silver were all smiles, and sweating in their hands holding the silver notes.

Xiaoxiao's blind mother-in-law, when she took the money, her eyes had been dry for decades, and tears flowed out: "I have lived my whole life, and I have never seen so much money as [-] taels of silver!"

"My miserable son, why did you die so early. If you hadn't died so early, you would be happy now."

"You can rest assured under Jiuquan, Wei Niang is living well now, because there is Mr. Qin as a great benefactor."

The blind mother-in-law's son has been dead for nearly ten years, but she still thinks about it often.

After the rest of the villagers got the money, they were smiling.

There was a lot of discussion about how to use the money.

"Tomorrow, I will go to the market to buy some rice and come back to improve my life," a woman said. "Every day I eat sorghum noodles and wild vegetables, and everyone who eats them feels nauseous."

"Necessary daily necessities, but also to buy a little more, it is not easy to go out to the mountains."

"In addition, buy a set of clothes for each of the children. The eldest girl is thirteen and there is a hole in her trousers. What's it like?"

"In addition to buying rice and buying clothes, I also plan to renovate my original house and turn it into a brick house." Villager Lu Dali said, "The mud and wooden house in the past was easy to leak when it rained. Children They sleep in damp places and get sick easily."

"Ten taels of silver is already a lot. It is enough to do these two things. Not only is it enough, but there is still a lot left." Villager Lu Daqing said, "I will also remodel my house into a brick house."

"I also have this plan." Another villager said.

Almost all of the villagers have plans to repair their houses. The bricks and tiles needed for the repair are not convenient to be brought back from the outside, so the villagers will burn the bricks and tiles by themselves, and there is a special brick and tile kiln in the east of the village.

There is no shortage of bricklayers.

In ancient times, most of the villages were filled with people from all walks of life, such as carpenters, masons, blacksmiths, tailors...women spinning yarn, dyeing cloth, and even magic sticks who could read the feng shui gods.

In the early years of Hongwu, the income level of the common people was five taels of silver per household per year.

They got [-] taels of silver at once, which is the income of a middle-class household for two years.

So [-] taels of silver is enough to keep them safe for two years.

Not only can I buy food, buy new clothes, but even repair the house, there is still a lot of surplus.

No wonder the crowd was so excited and so happy after getting the money.

"Don't leave, everyone, I still have something to say." The patriarch stopped the crowd, "Mr. Qin said that our perfume can continue to be made and continue to sell. That means we can always make money by making perfume."

"That's great!" The crowd became even more excited.

The money you only earn once will run out sooner or later, and being able to make money consistently is the most important thing.

Today, Mr. Qin has done it, allowing them to continue to make money by making perfume.

"Furthermore," the patriarch said again, "Sir, let us spend most of our energy making perfume, and a small part of the time for farming. It is said that we should not grow grain in the land halfway up the mountain, anyway, the harvest will not be good. If there are not enough wildflowers on the mountain, we will artificially plant them on the mountainside.”

"Also, it can be planted near your home."

"We will do whatever Mr. Qin says," the villagers said one after another.

"Mr. Qin is far-sighted, and his suggestions are all for our good. Not only do we need to plant flowers on the mountainside, but also all the roads in the village. Just leave some good fields to grow food and vegetables."

"In the future, our Lujia Village can even be renamed Baihua Village. The village has red tiles and white walls, and the mountains are full of birds and flowers."

The crowd was excited for a long time, and then slowly dispersed, laughing and laughing along the way, talking about how dare to use the money to improve their lives.

……

Lu Dazhuang's family.

Now he is still a homeless man, with mud walls and wooden purlins, and the oil lamps are dim.

The simple man Lu Dazhuang was holding a Hongwu treasure note of ten taels of silver in his hand, and his mood could not be calm for a long time.

He said to Lu Qing, "Daughter, now that our family is rich, we no longer have to worry about food and clothing. All this is Mr. Qin's help to us. You must listen to Mr.'s words and respect Mr.

"Of course my daughter respects Mr. Sir." Lu Qingqian said with wide eyes.
