four and a half year old farm family pet

Chapter 466 Recruiting long-term workers

After the county magistrate received the purse, he weighed it and found that it weighed 20 taels. He immediately raised his head and looked at the guard: "Who stuffed this money?"

"Ku Zhu Se is the one you met before, my lord, it was the family who adjudicated the case for their family and awarded the Yuanbao girl to their family. His surname is Jin."

"It's their family again?" The county magistrate looked at his purse and frowned, "What's going on this time? Isn't it another kidnapping?"

The officer shook his head quickly, "No, no, this time someone wanted to set their house on fire, and they also wanted to stab Yuanbao girl to death with a knife. It was an attempted murder and arson."

"It's a good case. The verdict is over. This year, I have a case to talk about in front of Shangfeng." The county magistrate breathed a sigh of relief. He was afraid that the whole year would be about trivial matters like the East family stealing chickens and the West family stealing tofu.

The county magistrate threw the purse back into the officer's arms, "If you don't accept the silver taels given by someone who was wronged, you won't receive them in vain. Invest this money in the project of pruning the river dam in Lanzhou. We must not let something like the heavy rain a few months ago happen again." Flood situation."

"Sir, why don't you accept the money I send you every time? Even if you are a kid, you don't dare to pay for tea." The officer was embarrassed.

The county magistrate chuckled: "When the water is clear, there will be no fish. I don't care how much you pay for tea, but I always 'take' it from the people and use it for the people. The salary given by the court is enough for my family." , go and ascend to the hall!"

"Yes! Your lord!"

Jin Si took Ma's father and Ma's mother into the court, stuffed the money with him, and argued the case. The trial process went very smoothly.

At first, Ma's father and Ma's mother argued hard and refused to admit it, saying that Yuan Bao had poisoned Ma Liu. However, with a killing blow, the county magistrate threatened to banish him, and he might even die in exile. The father, horse and mother immediately cried out in anger.

Arson and attempted murder were considered particularly serious circumstances under the laws of the An Dynasty.

But because there were no consequences, even after reading the law books, they could only sentence the horse's father and the horse's mother to ten pieces each and three years in prison.

After Yuan Bao knew the result, he frowned even more than the little old man.

Three years...

too light!
The punishments of the An Dynasty were too light.

She was a little dissatisfied, but when her father said that the benefits had been taken care of and everything that could be judged had been judged, she could only sigh and stop.

Five days passed in the blink of an eye. The 22 acres of potatoes that Yuan Bao Ji owned under Pei Yu's name were almost dug out. There were still some scattered bits and corners in the ground that needed to be dug out slowly.

For this reason, Yuanbao thought about it and took the dozen or so workers he had just recruited as long-term workers and temporarily lived in the Tan family's house.

When spring comes, we will build dormitories for them.

After signing the employment contract with the workers, Yuan Bao went to the Pei family warehouse to count grains with great interest.

Hawkeye held his sword and stood outside the warehouse door, watching the little girl humming a tune with great interest. Then he glanced at the several granaries in the house, which were all slightly 'deformed' due to being squeezed.

With a sigh, he took out his whistle from his pocket, summoned the flying eagle who specialized in communicating with the capital, and tied a bamboo tube as big as a knuckle to its foot.

What was inside was his letter to Pei Yu. This time Fei Ying sent the letter to inform Yuan Bao of the situation.

Eight thousand kilograms of potatoes per mu are produced, and they taste very good... This news must be known to the host family as soon as possible, and they must find a way to deceive the little girl Yuanbao into selling the grain to the Pei family.

After all, the Pei family is the number one grain merchant in the An Dynasty, but none of the grains grown by the Pei family across the country can match the yield per mu of potatoes.

"Brother Eagle Eye!!" Just when he was about to let the eagle fly, Yuan Bao suddenly appeared with a crisp and loud voice that scared Eagle Eye and almost broke the eagle's neck.
