After the Mid-Autumn Festival, the crops in the field have also begun to be fully harvested.

It's just that the harvest in the field this year is indeed worse than previous years.

What's more, the news that the county officials announced in villages one by one that the taxes would be increased after this year's autumn harvest during the autumn harvest was even worse.

"Fuck, this is too cruel, [-]% tax, crazy, isn't it?"

Mei Youqian didn't dare to say this outside. After hearing the news about this year's autumn harvest tax outside, he insisted on holding back and went back home. After collecting the food that he had been busy with for several months, he calculated it again and finally I couldn't help but get angry.

"One hundred catties of grain will be taxed at sixty catties. This is really disrespecting people! Before, I thought it was too expensive to pay [-]% of the tax. Now it's better, it's even more ruthless!"

After paying all the taxes, the rest of the food——whoops!

After planting the ground for a year, he has not eaten as much food as he has eaten in the past few months!

The key point is to post my own great strength, what Mei Youqian thinks and loses!

"How come the poorer you are, the more oppressed you are?"

After hearing her husband finish the calculation, Wei Meili also frowned.

With their family's appetite, if it wasn't for the system rewards and the rice noodles they earned, they might have starved to death long ago.

"Buy more food while we can, and we have to buy it even if the price goes up. I'm afraid we won't be able to buy it even if we have money next year."

This year, Yunzhou has failed to harvest grain for two seasons in a row. This is not their family's nonsense. That's what the little official who came to collect taxes said so.

In addition, Mei Berry knows that there will be a catastrophe next year, so the transportation here is not as convenient as in later generations.

With a bad harvest in one state, an increase in overall food prices is inevitable.

But the arrears and tax increases really opened the eyes of the Meiberry family.

"Isn't this just like the show in the TV series, what kind of uprising?"

Although it's just a glimpse, Mei Youqian's statement really made the Mei Berry family agree.

It is the second time to buy grain, and I am familiar with the road.

However, the price of food this time is indeed higher than last time.

Mei Berry and the others spent nearly 400 taels of silver to buy another two thousand catties of grain.

Food prices have nearly doubled.

Their family bought so much that the manager of the grain shop couldn't help but ask where Mei Berry's "owner" was.

How can anyone go to a place where food is expensive to buy food?

What kind of people are still in business?

Even when looking at Mei Youqian, there was a touch of sympathy in his eyes.

What good will come of following such a wronged master?

I don't know what the shopkeeper of the other party is thinking about. After buying the food, Mei Berry and the others only think that the money is hard to earn and the food is delicious!

Eating is the primary productive force for making money.

Probably God heard their voices of stress. One morning in late autumn, the clerk of Jiubaoxuan, who hadn’t seen him for a long time, finally came, and specially invited Mei Berry’s mother to teach us how to knit sweaters.

"Teaching or something, do you have a place? If you come here, there will be too many people, and our place is small, so we can't use it."

Hearing that Jiubaoxuan sent 20 people to study, Wei Meili turned her head and glanced at her yard. In addition to the chickens, rabbits, mules and sheep raised in the yard, there was also a pile of food in the sun.

What kind of corn, peanuts, and persimmons picked up the mountain with Miao Shi a few days ago are made into dried persimmons and dried persimmons.

If so many people came suddenly, there would be nowhere to go.

The guy glanced inside slightly, and then understood what Wei Meili meant.

He smiled knowingly and said: "Madam, don't worry about this, you can go to the town of Lihu Town, where there is a yard we arranged for you to teach.

Those who study these are all women, Madam, you don't have to worry.Our boss said that during the period when you taught them to knit sweaters, food, drink and lodging will be counted as ours, and there will be a sum of money for repairs afterwards. "

"Oh, this is so embarrassing."

Upon hearing that the arrangement was clear, the smile on Wei Meili's face became even more enthusiastic.

Immediately afterwards, she continued: "However, if there are too many knitters, the effect will not be good, and I can't guide it. How about it, I will discuss it with my third sibling, and she can also knit.

If she is willing, the two of us will guide together at that time, and we can be regarded as a companion, and we can teach them as soon as possible in terms of time. "

Wei Meiliang suggested that the other party agreed immediately, and said that he would come to pick him up tomorrow morning.

Wei Meili also nodded with a smile, until the other party left, the expression on Wei Meili's face immediately became a little playful.

Just now Mei Berry stood aside and watched her mother's whole conversation, and when she saw her mother's face suddenly changed after people left, she thought her mother had noticed something wrong with it, so she couldn't help being curious.

"Don't you think this guy's agreement is quite casual? One more person, one more sum of money.

We don't know how much this guy earns a month, and if he directly helps the owner or the manager agree, he is not afraid that the higher-ups will not agree?
I think he is probably not a simple guy~"

"Maybe the owner is generous and doesn't care about money?"

Mei Berry felt that when Wang Beigu talked about business, it was really refreshing.

Although the process of talking sometimes makes people feel a little scared when looking at them with scrutiny, but once the negotiation is over, whether they cooperate or give money, they are very refreshing.

"is it?"

Wei Meili looked at Mei Berry with a half-smile.

My daughter has no social experience, and has never been beaten by society, so she is still relatively rough in certain aspects.

She was not in a hurry to point it out, seeing her thoughtful look, she simply went out to Mei You's house and told Miao about it.

Don't look at Miao's timid and cautious appearance on weekdays, but for the things Wei Meimei mentioned, he is generally responsive and confident!

He immediately agreed to go with Wei Meili.

"Are you afraid that I will lie to you?"

"What did my sister-in-law lie to me for? You also taught me this skill, sister-in-law.

And this business, I heard from Youyou, it was your family who brought us together, my sister-in-law is in need, I have nothing to refuse. "

Miao's speech is becoming more and more open now. Although her voice is still a little loud, it has made great progress.

Seeing this, Wei Meili told her to go to the county early tomorrow morning. If she was worried, she would ask the two men to follow her on the first day of tomorrow.

So, that night, Wei Meihao cooked a lot of food for her two father and daughter whose cooking was worse than the other.

Looking at her mother's reaction, can Mei Berry know that her mother really intends to finish teaching before coming back?

Obviously the town is not too far from here, and there are mule cubs who "take special cars to pick them up", but she doesn't, she has a feeling of "abandoning her husband and daughter" and taking her little sisters out wandering.

"Ask if there is a couple's dormitory there, I want to..."

Compared to Mei Berry, who was a little bit reluctant, her father was thick-skinned, and directly asked her mother about this topic. Hearing that Wei's beautiful old face blushed, he almost slapped him on the face.

Mei Berry almost died laughing.

Probably not wanting to be seen as a joke by Mei Berry, before leaving, Wei Meimei asked Mei Berry to use a pen and paper to list what the father and daughter would do when she was not at home.

Sowing winter wheat, eating food in the sun at home, trimming the vegetable garden, going up the mountain to prepare firewood for the winter...

In the end, Mei Berry saw that the paper was full of things that the two of them had to do, including some chores such as cleaning the house at night, feeding chickens, rabbits, and sheep.

Looking at Mei Berry and Mei Youqian looking at the work on the paper, their jaws would drop to the ground in shock, Wei Meili laughed heartily and said: "Working hard can't stop for a day!"

Wei Meili: Get up and work for me! !
