Villager of Daming

Chapter 198 You Can Be Your Master Accountant (Second Change)
"Xiaoqi, I remember that in the very beginning, your village used crab pots. There are such good ways, why didn't you use them then?"

Feng Gui followed in the team, and a total of 22 people were dispatched from 6000 villages in Xuancheng County, including Xiaqiu Village.

There are only 300 people in Xiaqiu Village to take the lead, and a team of [-] people is scattered in parts of Danyang Lake and Shijiu Lake.

Compared with the two lakes, 6000 people are still too small. These two lakes were inhabited before, but they always flooded.

The fields and houses that had been built with great difficulty disappeared when the flood washed them away.

Right now there are only about two hundred households living in this area scatteredly, and the imperial court is unwilling to take care of it. They come here to collect the land tax by themselves, and the time wasted to do other things, which is more than the land tax collected.

In recent days, when they saw people coming to catch crabs, they also joined in one after another, taking money.

"At that time, the riverside was not suitable for digging pits, and there were few manpower. It was tiring to work! I couldn't get over it because I didn't eat well."

When Xiao Qi mentioned the past, she couldn't help but sigh, and finally survived.

"Yes! This year, I have fifty large animals in Xihe Village, which is enough. I will distribute the money I earn to everyone. I will learn from your village and keep a little envoy's money."

Feng Gui lamented that they all lived the same hard life, but fortunately Xiaqiu Village tied up a fairy and led everyone to a better life.

Your own village must keep up, and once you fall behind, you won't be able to catch up.

"Zhu Xiaoqi, come here." A man nearly 50 years old greeted Xiaoqi.

Xiao Qi glanced at Feng Gui and walked over: "Uncle Wu, the money will only be paid tomorrow morning!"

"I know, I know, I've been here for ten days, I come to work at night, and I get paid in the morning, based on the number of crabs I catch.

Let me discuss something with you. I heard from everyone that you Xiaqiu Village leads a group of villages to make money.

I used to have contacts with your village, but after the war, it was a mess, so I didn't want to go out.

Can you grow wheat on my land?After harvesting the rice, nothing has been planted! "

The man surnamed Wu bent slightly, with a sad expression on his face. He was obviously stimulated, and others began to eat a lot of food.

He didn't pay land taxes or labor labor, but his life was hard.

Xiaoqi showed a sympathetic look: "Uncle Wu, if you can plant it, you can do it in time. Our place is south of the Yangtze River. If we move to the north of the Yellow River, it will be too late to plant wheat again, and the seedlings will not emerge."

"Then my family will give your village the money they have earned recently. Your village will rent our livestock and sell us some seeds. You can go back and discuss it with the head of the village?"

This Wu Bo made a request, and he carefully looked into Xiao Qi's eyes with the help of the light, and there was a look of pleading in his eyes.

"Uncle Wu, listen to me. Don't worry about the money. You will pay back the wheat after harvesting next year. You must eat something good. After planting the wheat, you need to top-dress and weed the weeds.

Stay healthy, you usually... oh!Tomorrow, I will bring the livestock with me, and first dig out the land and apply the base manure.

Ask other people, see if they are willing to see, it happens to be together, more than 200 households, but it is relatively scattered. "

Xiaoqi nodded, agreed, and didn't charge immediately, and asked people to buy things with money, especially seasoning, cooking fish, fish... in the lake.

"Are you going to discuss it now?" Uncle Wu looked at the stars and estimated the time.

"Discuss with the chief? No need, the chief is busy in Nanjing City, so I'll make the decision. If I ask the chief for everything, the chief will be exhausted. Hehehehe..."

Xiaoqi laughed, and the laughter was naturally unified by the whole village, asking for hey.

"Xiaoqi, you don't care what you say...don't care..."

"He speaks well, and the business in Xiaqiu Village is booming. What's that?" Feng Gui affirmed from the side.

"That's great. I'll ask them. If it's done next year, we'll also pay the land tax. We can't let the government catch it. They don't care about being poor. If there's more food, they'll definitely come to the door."

Uncle Wu said to find other people who live nearby, no matter how far away they are, they will talk about it tomorrow, so they can't delay catching crabs by themselves.

He thought it through, the yamen really didn't care when there was nothing, and he had to pay the land tax for a large piece of wheat.

Seeing a boat coming over in the middle of the night: "Every village, our village chief wrote back and asked everyone to pick chrysanthemums by hand and use them as medicinal materials for the village to collect."

"Where are there chrysanthemums? I haven't seen them near my village. I knew I could just find a place to plant some."

"Yes, to the east, there are wild chrysanthemums in the tomb, go pick them."

"I have a lot of villages. I used to watch them all the time, and then I didn't care about them. Since they are medicinal materials, they should be collected."

"Last year it was said to be medicinal materials, but your village didn't hear it? There are quite a few that look like grass. I sold them to Xiaqiu Village last year and got 420 yuan."

"Your village is close to Xiaqiu Village. Who is in charge of sending letters in our village? It will delay my money."

The boat left here and continued to tell other places. The people here talked about collecting herbs while tying crabs with straw and putting them in baskets.

When they get sick, those who are close to the county will go to the Huimin Pharmacy in the county, and they will take home the medicines available in the pharmacy.

If the pharmacy didn't have it, they asked which kind of medicine was good, and they went to the pharmacy in Xiaqiu Village to get the medicine.

Many medicines in Xiaqiu Village are provided by the Tai Hospital, which is equivalent to the Huimin Pharmacy Bureau in the village. When others come to collect medicines, they have to give them.

The only downside is that no one sees a doctor, so I can only get prescriptions from outside.

"Crabs are eaten by rich people. Such a big shell and a little bit of meat are not enough to fit between the teeth."

"Don't worry about it, as long as you can make money, why don't you take it back and steam it?"

"Isn't it okay to go back and buy meat with the money I earn? Do I have to eat crabs? Get some bacon, chop it with vegetables, make dumplings and fry them in oil. This year, my family sells the rapeseed oil to buy livestock. There's still a lot of oil left."

"It's the same at my house. I think ramie oil is more fragrant than rapeseed oil. Eating oil really saves food! The leftovers after squeezing the oil are used to feed livestock and chickens."

"Without Xiaqiu Village, I dare not imagine how much more difficult life will be."

……

"Amazing! The experts in Xiaqiu Village are really amazing!"

On the tenth day of September, the prefect Song went to Fuya in the morning and saw the people from Xiaqiu Village and the things they sent, including crabs and honey.

It was given to the officials of the Quanning State Mansion again. As before, the servants of the Ning State Mansion and Xuancheng got a share, and they were given cotton cloth and salted duck eggs.

Yamen servants are not suitable to eat crabs and honey, it is too extravagant.

Song Zhifu paid more attention to the reply letter. In order to deliver the letter quickly, he sent a small boat to the Qinhuai River all the way, and then rushed against the current for a while.

Then it was a long journey back. All the things in Xiaqiu Village were delivered, but the boat was still on the way and did not return.

Song Zhifu invited the people from Xiaqiu Village in. He sat at the table and read the letter, expressing his admiration.

An expert is worthy of being an expert. For the same thing, an expert will be negative, no, he will make the best use of the situation.

It is obvious that the common people are asked to help dredging and dredging, and then fertilizing and topdressing.

As a result, the government suffers, the common people take advantage, and the number of places is limited.

Don't worry, people will work hard.Then the matter of mining phosphate rock can also be done according to this method, and the people will take it home and grind the stone.
