Leisurely ancient daily life

Chapter 107 Grain Tax
In the next few days, as the temperature gradually became colder, You Ran and Lin Fansheng also added a few more clothes.

And people in Lihua Village are rushing to harvest winter grain.

Youran's family only had one mu of land, and Lin Fansheng originally wanted to take it away, but Uncle Lin's family refused to let it go, only saying that what he should study now is not the field but the books.

Lin Fansheng accepted their kindness and studied very hard every day.

Leisurely ran to Shen Xia after finishing her household chores, and also bought a lot of beef jerky and other snacks from Tarou.

It's just that Shen Xia was a little helpless when she saw You Ran buying so much milk powder, because she still couldn't let it go, and felt ashamed and flustered by this thing.

It was Tarrou who explained that this food is a good thing. Everyone in the Mongolian people drinks it, and it is also good for the body, especially for babies and children who are growing up.

Leisurely also echoed, she had seen it in books, and it was the reason.

When Shen Xia heard about it, she reluctantly accepted it, and bought some for Liang Kuan with a very shy face.

It was just because she thought it was normal for a child to breastfeed, and her Kuaner was thirteen or fourteen years old, but for the sake of his health, she had the cheek to buy it.

Liang Kuan is not pedantic, he accepts this new thing very calmly.

If it is good for your body, just drink it.

Seeing this, Lei Ran also asked Tarrou how much goods they had left, and if there were more, they could put them in Shen Xia's shop and sell them along the way.

Naturally, Tarrou responded repeatedly, but then he really sold out.

It's because although food and clothing are not a problem these days, there are still women who lack milk due to uneven nutrition.

As a result, more than half of the milk powder was sold within a few days after it was put on the shelves, and people who heard that there was milk powder sold rushed here, and even sold some of the remaining snacks.

Now Tarou and the others were supposed to bring back the accumulated goods of the Mongols, but they have loosened a lot.

Tarrou and his party came happily, and Shen Xia and Youran's family also made a small profit from it.

A few days later, when everyone in Lihua Village had their winter grains put into the granary, the news that the grain in the village not far from the next door was spoiled by refugees also spread into the village from Wang Guihua's big mouth. in everyone's ears.

Under the old banyan tree in the village.

"Oh, that's really terrible. For our farm family, that food is the lifeblood."

A woman exclaimed with a peanut peeled in her hand, but there was a hint of schadenfreude in her tone.

"It's said that more than half of it was ruined, right? Take back [-]% to [-]%."

The other woman also stopped the winter clothes she was mending in her hand, glanced around and echoed the others, the gossip in her eyes was strong.

"What's so amazing, I'm afraid I can't even pay the food tax," another young daughter-in-law raised her head and said.

"Who knows. They said they have already reported to the government, so they hope that the government can exempt the food tax."

"I'm afraid it can't be done. There is a shortage of food up there, so I guess we should harvest less."

"Well, how can we say that our village is good? Uncle Lin has nothing to say. If it weren't for him, we would have suffered." A woman said again.

When everyone heard about it, they all started to praise him. Uncle Lin, the village head, did nothing to speak of.

It seems that the next few villages don't have much to lose, and they are still in panic, and their Lihua Village is very safe.

The main reason is the prestige of the Lin family in the eyes of everyone, and Uncle Lin also does practical things, is respected and respected, and people are willing to listen to him.

Otherwise, in other villages, the cliques in the clan are very chaotic, and the words of the village chief may not be useful, and people may not listen to them.

So it is also Lihua Village. Although there are constant small frictions on weekdays, everyone still listens to Uncle Lin's words.

Even if there are a few thorny juniors who are disobedient, the older generations who have inherited the love of the old Lin family have to take care of their own little bastards, and the shots are not light.

However, I believe that people will be more convinced by Uncle Lin after going through this incident.

It is at this time that the importance of the backbone of a village will be shown.

While the women were gossiping under the old banyan tree, a group of men from Lihua Village were escorting the grain tax to the town.

This is also what Uncle Lin said. The grain tax in the village is paid in batches, leaving some men to take care of the village, and the rest escort the grain to the town to pay the tax.

Although it took several times to come and go, it was a lot more troublesome than usual, but at least it was safe.

And unlike in the past, each household had to pay by itself, so it is interesting for such a group of people to chatter on the road.

And this time, Youran and Lin Fansheng were also inside, because they were going to stock up on condiments.

I believe that everyone in the team is also thinking about this, and they are going to store something.

When everyone escorted the food to the Yamen, they happened to meet the head of the neighboring village who was also there.

However, the people in the two villages can be described as a world apart.

Lihua Village also had a bumper harvest this year. Although the past few days were abnormal, it also brought good weather.

The harvest of the crops is good, and even the villagers of Lihua Village are in high spirits.

But if it wasn't for being raped and looted by those refugees, the same is true for their Zhengjia Village. The village chief of Zhengjia Village looked at a carload full of food, and his eyes were hot.

Several older men in the Zheng family stood silently aside, also staring at the convoy.

Uncle Lin saw that the village chief of Zhengjia Village was also there, and before he reached the gate of the yamen, he got out of the ox cart, and Lin Feng drove the ox cart, while he went up to say hello.

"Village Chief Zheng." Uncle Lin stepped forward to greet him with a smile.

"Mr. Lin." On the contrary, Boss Zheng didn't smile so much, and replied with a half-hearted smile.

Youran and Lin Fansheng followed Lin Feng and led the people behind to the side door of the yamen. This time they registered first, and then went to the granary to be registered by a special person.

And this granary is not far from Yamen Street.

Seeing Uncle Lin chatting with a few men with bad complexions over there, he leisurely glanced at Lin Feng who was familiar with the way, Uncle Lin was probably trying to train him.

After all, the village head is chosen by the Lin family, and the Lin family has become less popular in recent years. In the generation of Uncle Lin and Old Man Lin, the grandpa of the Lin family also chose Uncle Lin.

The next village head will also be selected by the current village head who is the most suitable person.

Uncle Lin must have chosen Lin Feng.

After thinking about it leisurely, it's not surprising that Uncle Lin chose him.

After all, in the Lin family, the rest of the relationship is too far away, and Lin Feng, as the eldest son, is flexible and flexible, so he is naturally more reliable than the frizzy Lin Li.

When Lin Feng came out politely talking and laughing with a yamen servant, Youran also followed Lin Fan into the bullock cart, and followed them to the granary.

Just when the motorcade passed by Uncle Lin and Boss Zheng, he leisurely heard the village chief complaining about Uncle Lin.

"Brother, this is because you are not authentic, why didn't you tell me when you received the news?" Boss Zheng said with a smile on his face, but there was a trace of dissatisfaction in his eyes.

He didn't believe that the old fox hadn't received the wind, otherwise the winter harvest would not have started a week earlier, and just after harvesting at one end, other villages at the other end would suffer.

　Thank you for the lazy cat's monologue and cute monthly pass!
