Mrs. Yipin: a farmer's doctor

Chapter 240 Exchange Grain for Land (4)
"Did you lose the battle?" Otherwise, why would there be taxation again.

Master Kong said with a sad face: "I haven't received any news. Presumably, I didn't lose the battle. That's how it is. That's why I need to collect taxes to provide enough supplies for the army."

Zhiran covered her head with a headache and said in a low voice, "It's really troublesome."

Master Kong saw this, and said apologetically, "I am helpless in this matter, Miss Tang, please forgive me."

Seeing that Master Kong had misunderstood her purpose of coming, Zhiran hurriedly changed the topic to ask Master Kong.

"Master Kong, do you feel that everyone has been dead lately?" The mobs all erupted in disasters, and Zhiran felt that the nerves of the victims had been stretched to the extreme and would erupt at any time.

Living in this atmosphere of being starved to death at any time, no one knows whether someone will make an aggressive move in the next second.

Master Kong glanced at Zhiran and immediately understood what she meant.

He also said without concealment: "To be honest, our place is not bad. According to reports, there have been riots in some places."

really.

In fact, she secretly thought about this matter. Before, there were many people who were actively looking for various ways of life, but now they are not so active.

Many who could sell their fields have already sold, but what about those who have no land?It is not known whether to resign to fate and wait for death, or to erupt in silence.

But no matter what kind of result, she didn't want to see it.

If there is a riot, no one knows what the situation will be. People like them who live in the country are the first to be attacked.

She is capable of protecting her family from disasters, but what about other innocent and kind people?Under the full nest, there are no eggs, this is not a joke.

The landlords didn't take this into consideration, but kept persecuting the people.

Although Zhiran is not sure if her idea is right, it is always good to give the people a hope. In this environment, if there is a hope for life, the people can always face the disaster positively.

It's already August, no matter how hard the drought is, it should be over soon, at most it will be two or three months away, it won't be November, the weather is still like this!
"Sure enough, I'm afraid of something!" Zhi Ran sighed, and said seriously: "Master Kong, I have a solution here, and I want to discuss it with you. This time I came here for this matter."

Master Kong's eyes lit up, the little girl in front of him always gave him a special feeling, talking to her was like talking to someone of the same age, her thinking, her thinking, was him, and sometimes he felt ashamed .

"If you have any ideas, just say, as long as you can help the people get through this hurdle, how can you cooperate with me?" When you come to him, there must be some things that require him to come forward. Master Kong understands this in his heart.

"My family's food is no less than that of any landlord's family!" Zhiran said bluntly.

Master Kong stood up in shock, his eyes widened, and he asked in surprise: "You mean, you mean..."

"No!" Zhi Ran knew what Master Kong was thinking, and she denied it.

Master Kong’s surprised eyes darkened, and he asked in a feeble voice: "Ah! No! Then what are you talking about now?"

Zhiran took a look at Master Kong, and then continued: "Actually, I also wanted to give porridge, but I was persuaded. How long can I last two or three days? So I thought about it for a while. Find a better way."

"Huh?" Master Kong sat up straight, motioning Zhi Ran to continue.

"Exchanging grain for land must be carried out. At present, the main families in various places are offering one mu of paddy fields for fifteen catties of grain, and good land is even lower. But I plan to exchange forty catties of grain for one mu of paddy fields."

Before Zhiran finished speaking, Master Kong took a deep breath. After all, how much food was wasted for nothing, but this also proved that Zhiran was sincere for the people.

Master Kong couldn't help but give Zhiran a high regard, thinking that if he could live in peace in the future, he must build a charity monument for Zhiran in the county.

"Forty catties of grain can be eaten for at least a month. If I save some, I can last for a while. Of course, I will not exchange all the rice for the people. I put some coarse grains such as sweet potatoes in the middle, and the people can last for a long time. Some! Like now that people are swollen because they eat wild vegetables every day, I will give some salt and sugar for free. In this way, some people can be solved, at least those who have grain fields can last longer."

"Fields are the foundation of farmers. Maybe if they sell their fields, they feel that their lives are hopeless. At this time, what I want to give them is hope. They can rent back the fields they sell, and they only need to pay me every year. Forty percent rent is enough. I believe that with this statement, many people can be appeased."

"Moreover, for those who have no land, I plan to implement the plan of borrowing grain! Not only lending them grain, but also letting them rent my land, but it is different from the people who sell the land, they pay [-]% of the rent a year , Keep [-]% for yourself. I believe this method, most people can calm down and accept it. "

"Because the land that the landlord leases to the peasants is divided into four or six, the landlord is six and the peasant is four, and some are even more excessive."

Mr. Kong was so happy that he didn't know what to do, and said repeatedly: "Miss Tang has a heart, and I thank you on behalf of all the people who suffered this time! If there is anything that needs my help, Miss Tang just ask."

Zhiran said with a smile: "Our Liujia Village is not the only village nearby, and now everyone's situation is known to adults, so I wonder if the government should come forward and set up a point in the government to let nearby The villagers are here to go through the formalities!"

Master Kong immediately agreed without thinking too much, and asked: "When will Miss Tang plan to start this matter, the sooner the better, if it is delayed for one more day, one more person will die."

Zhiran thought for a moment, then said: "So let's do it tomorrow! My lord, just let the news out today, and I will send people to deliver food in the morning tomorrow, but here, I forgot to send some yamen servants to manage the order. "

"Don't worry about this matter! I will take care of it on my body. I will be here waiting for you tomorrow." Mr. Kong finally showed a smile on his face, which had been frowning for several months.

Zhiran waved her hands and said modestly: "I won't come over tomorrow, I will send someone over, and I plan to open an outlet in Liujia Village tomorrow, after all, I am a villager, and I always want to take care of them first. "

Master Kong smiled admiringly and said: "Miss Tang is also a caring person!"

After Zhiran settled the matter, she said goodbye and left the government, and hurried home all the way. There are many things to do tomorrow, and she needs to settle down early.

Back in Liujia Village, Zhiran didn't even enter the house, so she went directly to the Changgong dormitory to meet Yidong.

Originally, what they had discussed in advance was that Yidong and his master and uncle would go to transport food tomorrow, and Yibei and the others would stay to cooperate with Zhiran's action of exchanging land for food.
