During the famine, my ancient well connected to modern times

At the same time, Luo Tingye and Jiang Miao who were far away in Qingzhou were not idle. They first went back to Hewan Village and got a lot of books and ten carts of wheat seeds.

Seeing that they had prepared so many wheat seeds, Jiang Fan said curiously: "The wheat seeds in Qingzhou are always better than those in Yuzhou. Why did you go back to Yuzhou to buy them instead?"

"Brother Fan, we specially bought these wheat seeds from a businessman. I heard that their wheat seeds can produce five stones of grain per acre of land."

Jiang Miao deliberately spoke in a low tone, fearing to scare him.

Jiang Fan laughed loudly, "Who did you listen to? How can one acre of land produce so much food? I think you must have been deceived."

The wheat they grow can only remove two kilos of grain from one acre of land. Even with intensive cultivation, they can only remove three kilos of grain. This is still a lot, but less is even less.

What kind of wheat can produce five stones of grain? Isn’t this pie in the sky?

Jiang Miao said seriously: "No, Brother Fan, just believe me."

Jiang Fan still didn't believe it, mainly because he had never heard of a place with such a high grain output, but looking at her serious look, he was a little suspicious, "Is it really as much as you said?"

"Of course, just trust me and let the villagers plant the wheat seeds I provide this year."

"What if we lose money?"

Jiang Miao wanted to agree, but Luo Tingye coughed lightly.

Jiang Miao thought that the wheat seeds prepared by Brother Li were suitable for the land and climate there, but they may not be suitable for them here.

If the seed doesn't come out, won't she suffer a big loss?
He can bear this risk, but the people in the village cannot bear it.

Jiang Miao looked regretful, "Then forget it."

Jiang Fan: "..."

Don't forget it!

Jiang Fan was not very interested at first, but Luo Tingye's cough made him change his mind.

In his opinion, Luo Tingye was as smart as Jiang Qian.

"Amiao, tell me, can this wheat seed really grow so much food? Why have I never heard of it before? Is the businessman you mentioned really so reliable?"

"Of course it's reliable."

Jiang Miao said many good things, but Jiang Fan was still worried.

Jiang Miao said without feeling confident, "Brother Fan, let's forget it. In fact, I'm not sure whether it can be planted. If it really can't be planted, wouldn't it be a big loss for you? I will plant these wheat seeds." Let’s take it back.”

Jiang Fan secretly glanced at Luo Tingye, who was calm and composed, and gritted his teeth, "No, let's do this. You leave ten stones of wheat seeds, and I'll tell the villagers. If there is anything they want to plant, let them take it. If you don’t have it, you can’t force it.”

"also."

Jiang Miao asked about Mrs. Jiang again.

Jiang Fan said with a smile: "Your grandma is now a famous person in the village. She goes to this Chuan Chuan restaurant today and that Chuan Chuan shop tomorrow. Her life is better than yours."

At this point, his eyes flashed, "A few days ago, your second uncle and second aunt ran back to the village and wanted to ask your grandma to take them in, but your grandma didn't agree and kicked them out. Not long after, If you say that the owner of the second uncle and second aunt is here, they will take them back and I heard they will be beaten."

Grandma heard about this and didn’t want to mention it, “Does Grandma know?”

"She should know. I heard from the villagers that they saw her secretly wiping tears behind her back, but she never mentioned it in person, and the villagers pretended not to know."

The people in the village accepted Jiang Miao and Jiang Qian's kindness and knew that they and Jiang Yongguo were at odds with each other, so few were willing to talk to them.

Even Hai Ziniang, who had a good relationship with Li Peilan, stayed away.Jiang Fan looked at Jiang Miao's expression and said, "Actually, your second uncle and second aunt were in quite a miserable situation. I heard that they were sold by the owner after they returned home. They are still in the dental shop now. I heard that they found several customers but still failed to sell. go."

"Brother Fan wants me to buy them back?"

Jiang Fan glanced at Luo Tingye nervously, and said with some embarrassment, "I do have this intention, but don't get me wrong, I am doing this not only for the sake of the Jiang family, but also for the good of Brother Qian. I heard that he plans to He stayed in the capital to prepare for the imperial examination. If he really passes the exam and people find out that his uncle and aunt sold themselves into slavery, I don’t think it will be a good thing for him."

Jiang Miao also paid a lot of attention to the matter as it related to her eldest brother.

In fact, as she grew older, she no longer resented Li Peilan and Jiang Yongguo, but she was not generous enough to forgive them either.

"It's easy to make enemies but not easy to make them. Besides, in the future, you and your brother will be doing business or working as officials, and your grandma can't be left alone to take care of you."

That's true, you can't always let the villagers take care of you.

"Brother Fan, don't worry, I know how to do it."

Jiang Fan nodded and talked about clan studies again.

However, Jiang Miao was not very interested and left after listening to it for a while.

After returning, Jiang Miao and Luo Tingye discussed the matter of Li Peilan and Jiang Yongguo.

Although Luo Tingye didn't want to see the couple, he also understood Jiang Fan's worries, not to mention that this matter involved Jiang Qian.

Although there is a book of renunciation, in addition to the book of renunciation, there is also an ethical code.

"If you don't want to see them, you can send them somewhere else."

Jiang Miao knew that Luo Tingye had property elsewhere, so he could just find a workshop and stuff people into it.

But in that case, it will also affect the eldest brother's reputation.

"Forget it, let them return to Hewan Village. With Brother Fan and the others watching, they shouldn't cause much trouble."

Jiang Fan is more decisive than his father and uncles. Before, he was not very popular because of his youth, but in the past two years, he has done a lot for the village. In addition, he has gained the reputation of a scholar and is a serious scholar.

The people in the village were in awe of scholars, so naturally they were a little more in awe of Jiang Fan.

Especially in the past two years, many old people in the village have died, and there are almost no people who can suppress Jiang Fan. The younger generation in the village basically follows Jiang Fan.

Luo Tingye said: "Since you have decided, we will go to Yaxing in the afternoon."

Jiang Miao nodded.

After lunch, the two came to the county seat and found Yaxing.

When Ya Xing learned that they were here for Li Peilan and Jiang Yongguo, his eyes suddenly lit up with joy, "No price, only five taels of silver."

Jiang Miao, who was about to bargain, was stunned. Isn't the five taels of silver a bit too cheap?

Seeing her hesitation, Yaren asked with some uncertainty: "What about four taels?"

Jiang Miao still didn't speak.

Yaren gritted his teeth and said, "At least three taels of silver. It cost me one tael of silver to treat the two of them."

Jiang Miao came back to her senses and said reluctantly: "Buying two losers for three taels of silver is a huge loss."
