The general is happy: the fierce wife of the peasant family is ruthless and stunning

Chapter 225 Reaching the Village
After hearing this, Qin Ya could understand Li Chenggu's actions. After all, the crisis is everywhere, so it's better to be careful.

Two groups of people said goodbye at the gate of the escort agency, Li Chenggu took people to walk the escort, and Qin Ya took people to the village to discuss the food.

Because the place to go this time is not too far, and the time is not long, so Li Xi'er stayed in the escort agency to take care of Zhao Jie and others, and Qin Ya only brought Ning Zong and others there.

The village was not far from Lin'an, and it took about half a day's journey to get there.

Because the county magistrate had sent someone to inform them before, there were already people waiting for them as soon as they arrived at the entrance of the village.

When Qin Ya got out of the carriage, she saw that the other party was an old gentleman around 60 years old with a long white beard.

"But Mrs. Qin Ya?"

The old man asked first.

"Yes, I am Qin Ya."

she replied.

The old man stepped aside and asked Qin Ya to follow him before walking into the village: "Although our village belongs to Lin'an, it basically feels like Lin'an."

In that town, people only go to the town to buy things when they have something to do, and they usually stay in the village.

Although the land in their place is still fertile, there are only a few things that everyone can grow, so they can't expect to make money, just maintain their basic livelihood.

Qin Ya and the village head had a little understanding of the situation, and then followed him to look at the land in the village.

This place is much better than the soil in Yunding Village, but these people don't know how to use it.

"Village chief, did the county magistrate say what is the purpose of my visit?"

"I mentioned some things, but I didn't say anything specific."

Qin Ya knew it well, after all, what she told the county magistrate was only part of the information, and she didn't tell everything.

"I came here this time to discuss with you, to change the things you are growing in your fields now, and I will buy all the food you grow in the future."

The village head looked at Qin Ya suspiciously: "Our village has grown wheat for generations, and we have never grown anything else. How do we know if there are other things that are more suitable for planting?"

"This, I will explain in detail later."

While talking, everyone walked to the village chief's house. Qin Ya looked over and saw the end of the yard. It was clear that this place was not rich, and could even be said to be poor.

The village chief smiled a little embarrassedly: "We don't have the money to build a better yard here."

"It's okay."

Qin Ya whispered, she knew how embarrassing it would be when she had no money. When she first came here, she lived such a life in Yunding Village.

The village head poured them a glass of water: "What did Madam mean just now?"

"I can buy all the fields in your village, and then hire you to farm for me, and I will pay you the corresponding wages, but I have the final say on what to plant."

"All the fields in our village..."

The village chief was in a dilemma. Their entire village lived on those fields. If they sold them to Qin Ya, what would they use to live in the future?
Qin Ya observed his expression carefully, and knew that he was unwilling.

"I don't know how much money you can earn by farming every year?"

"Don't talk about money, half a penny is not bad."

The village chief rubbed his forehead. In their place, there is not much food for farming. Every family keeps food for themselves, and the rest can be sold even less. In addition, the price is not high, and what can be earned , in fact, that's all.

"Then if I say, I can give you a tael of silver every month by farming for me, would you be willing?"

Qin Ya asked again, this time, she told the village chief everything she could give.

The village chief looked up at her in surprise: "Is what Madam said true?"

"Of course, we are the people recommended by the county magistrate, how could there be a fake?"

"But our village can't make that much money in a year. If Madam makes such a condition, is there really no loss?"

Qin Ya smiled: "This is something I have to consider myself."

"This……"

The village chief gritted his teeth, "How about I find out all the villagers and ask them?"

"it is good."

Qin Ya sat quietly in the house and waited for news from the village chief. Ning Zong observed the surrounding environment: "Madam, it seems safe here for the time being."

"Ah."

Qin Ya responded lightly, "By the way, when you came in just now, did you hear the woman crying?"

"It seems that there are a few sounds coming from the north of the village."

Ning Zong thought for a while, and when he came in with the village chief, he heard this voice.

Qin Ya frowned, why was there a woman crying?

Not long after, the village chief came back. There were only a dozen families here, and the message was delivered very quickly.

"Ma'am, the villagers said that they need to see you first, otherwise they don't know if it's true or not."

Qin Ya stood up: "Well, then I will discuss these matters with them."

Qin Ya went out and stood at a slightly higher place, and all the villagers stood below, and all of them focused their eyes on Qin Ya who was on the top.

She lowered her head to look around at the people below, and then said slowly, "I'm Lin'an County..."

She roughly repeated what she had said to the village chief before, and a questioning voice slowly sounded from below: "Each of our households has a tael of silver every month?"

"Yes, but it also depends on the number of fields each family is responsible for. If the number is large, the corresponding commission will also increase."

"What if no one is responsible?"

"Of course not a penny."

Qin Ya looked at the person who was speaking, and that person was standing at the bottom idly, no one approached him, and he didn't look like a decent character.

Qin Ya withdrew her gaze and continued to look down: "Is there anything else you want to ask?"

"Why should we trust you?"

"The magistrate of Lin'an County can vouch for me."

Qin Ya felt that in today's era, bringing out official personnel should be the most effective way to deal with the common people.

Who knows that the people below still began to question: "What about the county magistrate? Isn't the county magistrate not in charge of our place for so many years? That's why our place has been poor for so long."

"It is precisely because the county magistrate wants to develop you now that he let me come here."

Qin Ya raised her hand and stroked her chin. She didn't expect these villagers to have resentment towards the county magistrate. Just looking at the performance of County Magistrate Chen in Lin'an County, Qin Ya always felt that the county magistrate was doing a good job.

The village chief also spoke for Qin Ya: "What this lady said is trustworthy. As long as everyone agrees to her terms, life will be easier in the future, and you will be able to eat meat."

The villagers still looked at Qin Ya defensively: "That's what I said, but we can't just trust you like that."

"Then what do you think?"
