"Six cents for a bucket of water?!"
Magistrate Tang's face turned black in an instant.
He suddenly remembered that the fact that the village head of Linjiagou Village went to the county government to ask him to borrow money seemed to be to buy water to irrigate the wheat fields.
This Xishan Village doesn't care about the friendship between neighboring villages at all, and even asks for a sky-high price!
You know, even in the capital, a load of water is nothing more than...
He didn't seem to know the price of things in the capital. He never asked the price when he bought things before, and he never paid attention to the purchases at home.
Anyway, he just felt that the price was inflated.
It's just a bucket of lake water, but it was sold for six coins!
However, now is a disaster year, and there may be only one place in the county that still has water. Of course, there may still be water in the deep mountains and old forests, but the deep mountains and old forests are too dangerous. There may be wolves, tigers, and wild boars in them...
Therefore, he couldn't stop Xishan Village from taking the opportunity to collect money.
Magistrate Tang sighed, and leaned back a little depressed, without the energy he had before he came.
Based on the fact that Xishan Village can sell six cents a barrel of water, his plan of opening canals to divert water may not work.
Unless, he offered a high price that could satisfy Xishan Village.
It's not that he doesn't have money, but it's all from his family, not from Tang Shishu himself.
"grown ups."
Master Li couldn't help but yelled softly, fearing that the county magistrate of Tang would be devastated because of this, and he would have no future to speak of.
You know, in order to be able to be by Magistrate Tang's side, he also paid a lot.
"It's nothing, I just have a lot of emotions."
County magistrate Tang just thought of Lin Yue, the woman who found sweet potatoes in Linjiacun.
One, in the face of the disaster, discovered sweet potatoes, a food that is full of treasures and can be grown anywhere. Not only did they not keep it for themselves, but it spread to the point where it was widely planted in the whole county, although they also gained profits from it. , but that is all reasonable.
However, people in Xishan Village rely on the only water source in their village to make huge profits, so that the nearby villages that have the opportunity to increase the wheat harvest cannot have a good harvest even if they use the power of the whole village, or even plant it. Food is far less than the money to buy water.
Such a comparison made County Magistrate Tang more clearly feel Lin Yue's good character, and she really deserved to be a good mother who could raise four excellent sons.
Yue Jiuyue didn't know Tang County Magistrate's evaluation of Yue Jiuyue. She only knew that as soon as she went out, she found that there were old and weak women and children digging holes in the South Lake in front of her house. Don't think about it, Yue Jiuyue I also know that they are definitely looking for clam shells again, and Xiao wants to exchange pearls for money.
As for the person who brought up this trend, there was no one else except that son of a bitch third cousin.
She didn't mind meddling in the past to remind them, lest those people don't know what to expect, and think she is afraid that they will dig up the pearls and want to take it all for themselves.
Don't blame her for maliciously guessing people's hearts, not to mention that the current drought is causing panic, even in good times, this kind of thing that seems to cut off people's fortunes is like sand parents, no one will believe it.
"Sister-in-law, why don't you come and dig pearls together? Hurry up, there's still a lot of space over there!"
There was that grateful woman who immediately warmly invited Yue Jiuyue to dig pearls together.
"Thank you, brother and sister, but there's no need. I dug it a couple of days ago, and now my back still hurts."
