"Share the profits evenly? Go ahead and dream!" Yang Jishan didn't even bother to look directly at officials of Yuan Tiangang's level.He stretched out two fingers, waved them in front of Yuan Tiangang, and said, "This is my greatest gift!"

Yuan Tiangang is a smart man, and the Yang family is powerful, so it is impossible for him to sit on the side of the villagers.But he couldn't understand Liu Ziqiu's face, which made him afraid, so he readily agreed to help the villagers speak.But Yang Jishan was only willing to give up [-]% of the benefits, far from Liu Ziqiu's request, Yuan Tiangang could only bite the bullet and said: "Mr. Yang, don't forget, there are masters in the village!"

Yang Jishan jumped up from the table at once, turned to see Yang Heihu, sat back suddenly, and said in a deep voice, "Tell them to send someone over to talk!"

Yang Heihu didn't hide anything about what happened on the pier yesterday.As the lucky one among the generals of the Yang family, Yang Heihu didn't even have the courage to fight against him.This made Yang Jishan quite annoyed, but it was more of a fear of that person.

Yang Heihu hastily reminded: "Eldest Young Master has ordered that here..."

Because this place has been empty for a long time, not many people in the court remember that this is the property of the Yang family.Before Yang Jishan left, Yang Xuangan explained that outsiders should not be allowed to enter the manor at will.For Yuan Tiangang, a shrewd local official, he naturally knew exactly which high-ranking officials had what property in the county, so he was able to come to him by himself.But attracting the villagers from Changshan Village is another matter.

In the village, Yang Jishan didn't even dare to go.In the early hours of this morning, he sent out more than 100 people, and when they came back, they were still in a state of distress.Some people's feet were pierced and they couldn't walk;There are many institutions outside the village, Yang Jishan thinks he is a gentleman, he doesn't want to put himself in danger.

But Yuan Tiangang clasped his hands and said: "If Mr. Yang is in trouble, and the officials are willing to be a middleman, please ask you to move to the county government office. I don't know what you want?"

If this matter can be facilitated, it will be a big trouble for Yanguan County.

"Let me think about it again, and I will give you an answer within three days." At this time, Yang Jishan had calmed down, and the matter was too big for him to decide.

Throughout the day, the villagers maintained a high level of vigilance, and no one went out to fish.Vanilla is still a little weak, but she is able to walk around on the ground, and even rushes to help Gao Xiuer with the housework. The two sisters are hardworking people.

At dusk, some villagers spontaneously ran outside the village to set up the destroyed trap again.Although Liu Ziqiu didn't think it was necessary, it was related to the lives of the villagers, so he didn't dare to guarantee it casually.However, Liu Ziqiu still suggested that the villagers take turns to watch the night, there is no need to exhaust everyone.Having not slept all day and all night, Liu Ziqiu himself wanted to take a good rest.

But here comes the problem, there is only one bed in Daniu's house.

Gao Xiu'er took the initiative to say: "Brother, you can go to sleep inside, I don't feel sleepy talking with Vanilla outside."

Liu Ziqiu still wanted to talk about his style. He patted his firm chest and said, "Okay, there's nothing to argue about. With my body, I can just sleep on the floor!"

As the night darkened, neither Vanilla nor Gao Xiu'er could fall asleep.Vanilla has been lying down for too long, but Gao Xiuer is full of thoughts.

Vanilla took a sneak peek outside, and said in a low voice, "Sister, although Big Niu is a bit rusty, he is handsome, how about..."

Gao Xiu'er said angrily: "You little girl, you are springing up! Go to bed!"

Vanilla pouted, not daring to speak, she tilted her head, only to find a pair of scissors beside Gao Xiuer's pillow, and said in surprise, "Sister, what are you doing with these?"

"It's hard to know someone's face, but it's hard to know his heart!" Gao Xiu'er's ears were warmed when she thought of being touched by Liu Ziqiu's chest when she was learning boxing today, "Do you know who he is?"

Vanilla wondered: "Isn't he your husband, Brother Big Niu?"

Gao Xiu'er stuffed the scissors under the pillow and said, "No! He's not a big cow. If a big cow has his skills, how could he fall into the sea with an arrow?"

Until the evening of the third day, there was no movement from the Yang family.Suddenly, Yuan Tiangang sent someone to invite people from Changshan Village to go to the county to discuss cooperation with the Yang family tomorrow, and named Daniel by name.

The villagers got together to discuss, and Liu Ziqiu stood up and said, "If the Yang family is willing to talk, the matter will be half successful. The salt field is making a lot of money every day, and everyone's future life can be guaranteed. If we leave early tomorrow, we must talk about it." Satisfied with the result."

"Changshan Village can't do without you." Second Uncle suddenly stood up and said, "This is a Hongmen Banquet, you can't go!"

In the past few days, Liu Ziqiu already knew the general situation of Changshan Village through insinuations.In Changshan Village, there are only two surnames, Xiao Niu, and the second uncle is Xiao Xin, who is the oldest. He has lived through the Liang, Chen, and Sui dynasties and is the most knowledgeable. The villagers all listen to him.

Xiao Xin is already over [-] years old, considered an advanced age in this age, Liu Ziqiu couldn't bear to let him run around, and persuaded: "Second Uncle, if it's a Hongmen banquet, I should go. At least I'm young, and I can run away when I'm in danger. Hurry up, how can you let your old man take risks?"

Xiao Xin said without doubt: "What if this is their trick to divert the tiger away from the mountain? Who will protect the village? I'm already old, and it's not a pity to die! All the young people are not allowed to go!"

Liu Ziqiu knew that he couldn't hold him back, so he nodded and said, "Second Uncle, it's okay for you to go, but remember, the profit will be shared equally, and you will never give in!"

Nothing to do, Liu Ziqiu also carefully analyzed.It has been half a year, although the Yang family has resorted to various methods and injured some lives, but they have not killed them all.Now, the Yang family is suddenly in a hurry to slaughter the village, and it must be because they can't drag on the matter of the saltworks.By grasping this point, Changshan Village will have an advantage in the negotiations.

The meeting went very smoothly, which showed that Xiao Xin's worries were superfluous.

Yang Jishan himself did not show up, but was represented by Yang Heihu.Yang Heihu originally planned to explore the reality of "Da Niu" during the meeting, but in the end a bad old man came, which greatly disappointed him.

The banquet is held in the county government office, with delicious food, wine and Kabuki music.Yuan Tiangang sat in the chair, Xiao Xin and Yang Heihu sat on either side, and the three of them ate and talked.

The Yang family did a lot of homework in advance.Tell Xiao Xin that if a salt farm is set up, how big it can be, and how much salt it can produce every day, all are listed clearly.Xiao Xin can make a net profit of at least a thousand taels of silver every month!

Xiao Xin stayed in Changshan Village all her life, never thought that she and the villagers were just guarding a precious land to beg for food.

However, the Yang family is not worried that Changshan Village will go back on its word.Yang Heihu made it clear that if Changshan Village wanted to start a salt farm by themselves, even if they had the funds, as long as they didn't have the support of the Yang family, they wouldn't be able to sell even a tael of salt!This is the bargaining chip that the Yang family counts on.

Moreover, the Yang family also investigated the situation of Changshan Village clearly.In Changshan Village, there are only 78 households with a population of more than 300, of which no more than [-] can work in the saltworks.With just this little capital, it is impossible to share the profits equally with the Yang family!

Xiao Xin was stunned, but remembering the instructions of "Da Niu" before leaving, she still bit the bullet and insisted: "The profit must be shared equally, otherwise there will be no discussion!"

Yang Heihu laughed and said: "Old man, don't be too greedy! Our young master said that we will give you 350% at most, and it will be [-] taels of silver in a month. You will be able to earn this amount all year round. ?”

Xiao Xin was speechless, and silently pressed her fingerprint on the contract.Yuan Tiangang also signed his name, but Yang Heihu used Yang Jishan's private seal.The contract is made in triplicate, and Changshan Village, Yangjia County, and Yanguan County each hold one copy.

Although Liu Ziqiu's condition was not met, Xiao Xin still likes it when she thinks that the village can get 350 taels of income every month.More importantly, this time the county lord personally sent him to the gate of the city, which made him feel more face.

Yuan Tiangang sent Li Xin to Wuliting in the east of the city all the way, and then he cupped his hands and said, "Old man, this county will not send you away any longer. Please tell the old man to come to the county office when he is free. You have to do the math for him yourself!"

Xiao Xin readily agreed.

The contract was written in traditional Chinese characters, but Liu Ziqiu could tell the general content, it just took a little effort.However, he could clearly see the small words at the end of the contract "Sui Daye was established in July of the third year".Thirty-five percent is far from his predetermined goal, and after careful calculation, the second uncle was fooled by the Yang family.The monthly profit of the salt farm is more than a thousand taels!This is a failed negotiation!

"Daniu, you can't read, what do you want to see it do? Let me read it to everyone!" Seeing Liu Ziqiu frowning, Xiao Xin snatched the contract and read it in front of all the villagers.

Hearing that the village will have an income of 350 taels a month in the future, the villagers all cheered. This is really a huge sum of money for them, much better than fishing.

Seeing that the simple villagers were very satisfied, Liu Ziqiu stopped talking.After all, this is the villager's own business, and he doesn't plan to live in the village for a long time, let alone be a saltworks owner. His dream is to return to modern times one day, and this is the direction of his efforts.

However, Liu Ziqiu still planned to fight for the villagers and said, "Second Uncle, you should add one more!"

Xiao Xin was taken aback, and asked, "What else should I add?"

Liu Ziqiu said: "The Yang family should advance this month's dividends first! In the future, everyone will go to work in the salt field, and no one will go fishing in the sea. If they don't advance some money, should we let everyone drink the northwest wind this month?"

Xiao Xin patted his thigh and said: "Yes, why didn't I think of this level! Daniel, the county lord asked you to go to his place, and he wanted to do the math for you. Why don't you go there tomorrow, please He mentioned it to the Yang family again. I think the county lord always treats you differently, maybe it will work."

Liu Ziqiu laughed and said, "Whoever cares about asking him to tell a fortune teller doesn't need to ask him. As soon as someone from the Yang family comes tomorrow, I'll talk to the Yang family directly!"
