Chapter 257 In order to buy people's hearts
Chapter 250 VII In order to buy people's hearts

Liang Zhongqiu took a sip of tea and said with a smile:
"Although your seventh grandfather is not very good at farming, he is more knowledgeable than we are. It's good to give Xueer more advice."

Xue Jian smiled and nodded repeatedly.

Old Mr. Shen thought for a while and said:

"If you plant rice next year, you have to order the seeds before the Chinese New Year. You have to figure out how many seeds to use. I've heard that some people in the village will save their own seeds, but I don't know where you are. Is there such a way?"

Snow said:
"I don't know about that. But now I don't want to use their seeds. Those people have many ways to deal with the Lord's family. I accidentally heard a few of them that day."

As he spoke, he told everyone what he had encountered during the visit that day.After hearing this, Liang Zhongqiu said:
"Hearing what you said, it's really troublesome. It seems that your manpower is insufficient. You are ruthless, saying that we have tenants here. If you don't think about it, which one is willing to follow you?"

Xue Jian helplessly said:
"I can only say this. If they feel that I am indispensable without them, then why don't I get Joe. I can only let them know that without them, I will still be the master, and someone will still come to me. Tian. Don’t say anything else here, Lord, I’m going to send my eldest sister and her husband over there for me to watch, what do you think?”

"You have a lot of thoughts, and now those people are afraid, you really don't want them. Your eldest sister and her husband's family used to be tenants, so it's no problem to do these things, but if you don't think I'm old, I can go and show you Two years."

Old Shen said with some radiance in his eyes.

Xue Jian said in surprise:
"Really? It would be great if you get old. Oh, no, you can't go alone. We don't worry if no one takes care of you. In this way, ask Nai to go with you, and have big sisters and big brothers-in-law with you This way, I won’t be afraid that no one will take care of me. Leave the elder sister’s eldest child here to study, I don’t know where the one who is studying over there is.”

Liang Zhongqiu also nodded and said:
"It would be the best if you could go to my in-laws. The children are young and don't understand, and you have to be old-fashioned like you to understand. Otherwise, they will be fooled by those tenants again."

Xue Jian said with a smile:

"This is a matter. Let me ask you, besides the rice we eat, do you know that there are other kinds of rice? How about we grow other rice?"

Xuejian really wanted to ask if there was any fragrant rice, but she didn't know how to explain fragrant rice to them.That's the only way to ask.

"We often grow this kind of rice now, and there is another kind of glutinous rice that is used to build houses and make other kinds of glutinous rice. Besides, I heard that there is a kind of rice that is grown in Yuanyang Mansion to make rice. It is fragrant. But I heard that the harvest of that kind of rice is low. No one grows it anymore.”

Seeing that Xue Jian was interested, it seemed that there was really fragrant rice, so she said:
"Then let's plant some, not too much, and try to plant two acres first."

Grandpa Shen Qi smiled and said:
"You have many eyes. When I was outside, I heard that there is a kind of rice that is delicious, but it is black. Some people dare not grow it. They are afraid that it will be poisonous and that they will not be sold. Do you grow it?"

Xue Jian said in surprise:
"Is it really there? Where is it? I read it in a book, saying that black rice is a good thing, and eating it is good for the body."

Shen Qi sat up straight and said:

"Do you really want it? Then I can write a letter for you to ask. There are few in the south."

"Yes, this year is fine without next year."

Xue Jian nodded.

"Xue'er, I don't have much land. However, you are building this kind of new house now. I am afraid that there will be more people building houses in the future, and more people will use glutinous rice. I think you can grow more."

Grandpa Niu also made a suggestion.Xue Jian nodded again and again and said:
"Yes, those who renovate their houses need this. We don't grow much glutinous rice in these places, and most of them come back from the south. Yes, we grow more."

Xuejian said again:

"Let's talk about this kind of thing. Now I want to talk about those tenants. I have a preliminary idea. Tell me a few grandpas to help me think about it. It's like this. Doesn't every family have more or less people?" Some of them took my land. I don’t care how much the grain was harvested before. From now on, I will give each family’s land to them for planting. I decide what to plant, but the more they plant, the more they will get. Just more! The more they get. I will also reward the one with the highest yield per acre. This way they will definitely plant actively!"

Old Mr. Shen nodded and said:

"What you said is very good. Now those tenants seem to charge one stone five per mu for rent, and there are not many left for tenants! How are you going to collect it?"

Snow said:
"How much can you harvest per mu of land now?"

Liang Zhongqiu and old Shen Touer looked at each other, Liang Zhongqiu said:

"If you know how to farm, God can make do with it, and you can get three stones. But this is rare, usually about two stones, and there are just one and a half stones."

Old Shentou also nodded.Xue Jian frowned, the yield per mu is so low now!No wonder those tenants thought of the law to fix the house.Xuejian originally said that he wanted to share half with the tenants, which would increase the income of the tenants.Think about it after seeing the snow:
"See if this works. The tenants and I share four or six in the first year, and I have four and they have six. This leaves them enough to eat. In order to get more, they will work hard, so that I will not be less. In the second year At first we were half and half. Each had fifty percent."

Several old men looked at each other, Grandpa Niu smiled and said:

"It's a tenant's blessing to meet a master like you!"

Xue Jian smiled and said:
"I can't help it! These people are hard to manage, they just want to have a stutter. I have so much, they grow it themselves, and they can get more."

He said with a sly smile:

"In this way, I bought people's hearts! In the future, they won't listen to me what I say?"

"Ha ha……"

All the old men laughed.Liang Zhongqiu nodded Xue Jian's head and said:

"You're just a ghost!"

Grandpa Shen Qi said with emotion:

"That's what I said, but it's hard to find someone who is truly willing to give up what he gets! Xue'er has such determination and such a heart at such a young age! This is the person who will make great things happen!"

"Lao Qi, don't praise her! You're so proud of yourself!"

Old Mr. Shen came back slowly, and everyone laughed.Old Shen said again:

"Xue'er, I think what you just said is fine! I think this is good! Don't forget that we are also born in hardship! Don't do this or that just because you have two money, always remember that you are also a farmer!"

Xuejian nodded. I actually didn't think about the old Shen so much. I just wanted to slowly implement a small contract responsibility system in my village. I hope it will be useful for increasing production. Now I grow grain to connect with the ancient times. Xuejian is planning to grow some cash crops.
