Picking Up a General to Plow the Fields Chapter 67: An important event is being announced here (3)
lnmao.org, the fastest update of Home of the Farming Girl: Pick up a general to farm the latest chapter!
"Nonsense!" Zhang Lizheng glared in the direction where the sound was made, and said with an aura: "This kind of thing didn't fall from the sky, can you not ask for money? This is already a very cheap price! By the way, By the time of the autumn harvest, the tax collected on this half of the land will be half less than that of the crop, which is considered to be the court's generosity!"
When everyone heard about asking for money, they started talking about it. They heard that taxes would be reduced by half. Instead of being happy, they became more worried. Worrying about this kind of thing is not a gadget!
Think about it, otherwise the court would be willing to collect less taxes?
"Zhang Lizheng, if someone is willing to help other people's family grow, can this work?" Lian Fangzhou asked loudly.
There was a burst of laughter in the crowd, looking at Lian Fangzhou like a joke, wondering if this big girl from the Lian family was stupid, who would be willing to help others to plant? Wish to throw it all at other people's homes!
Zhang Lizheng also stunned for a moment. After thinking for a moment, he nodded and said: "As long as both parties are willing, of course there is no problem!"
Lian Fangzhou said "Oh" and asked, "Then the government has sent someone to instruct us on how to plant it?"
"No!" Zhang Lizheng said: "Just plant something, who of us farmers don't understand? Where else do we need someone from the government to guide such trouble!"
Lian Fangzhou suddenly realized that he didn't say much.
In fact, the court originally planned to send someone down to give pointers, but once these seeds were rare, there were not many that could be planted, and this trial planting was an errand that the governor of the Southwest took the initiative to come to please the prince. In order to show the abundance of local talents, of course he refused to let the court send people down. Isn't it just farming? Isn't the new seed also a seed, just sow it in the ground, carefully treat it, fertilize and water it, isn't it enough?
What's more, it's just a trial planting. If it fails, there are reasons to explain it. For example, the water and soil are not suitable, the climate is not suitable, and so on.
In a word, unsuccessful, the attitude is positive and sincere; and if it succeeds, it is a great achievement!
"Okay, okay! That's it! Don't forget to go to my house to get the seeds when you turn around! Don't forget!" Zhang Lizheng finished, walking down and waved: "It's all gone. Come on!"
Everyone talked and broke up.
"As far as she can, the **** doesn't make sense! I'm not afraid of making jokes!" Lian Fangzhou heard that Qiao was not far behind and had no good air.
She and Lian Ze looked at each other, smiled slightly at Lian Ze, and left the same as Qiao's voice.
"You don't have to worry about this, wait a few days to see what the villagers do. Let's do it!" Gradually walking away, seeing no one around, Aunt Zhang said this to Lian Fangzhou.
Lian Fangzhou was taken aback. Although she didn't quite understand what it meant, she knew that Aunt Zhang would never harm her, so she responded with a smile. Say goodbye to each other.
Lian Ze said: "Sister, Aunt Zhang is right. Don't look at what Lizheng said just now. I think he has a headache. Few people will take the initiative to get the seeds! Let’s watch it first. If the big guys don’t get it, we won’t get it either!"
This is... the law does not blame the public?
Lian Fangzhou was relieved after thinking about it, this is nothing else, it's a land grab with the big guy! This is nothing short of death. Who can stand it?
However, this also just shows that her chance is here! She asked Zhang Lizheng those two words, not plainly.
Potatoes and cotton, others don't know what they are, but she knows! That's really a good thing!
It's nothing more than potatoes, but cotton, as long as it is planted for one season, not to mention the high-quality cotton cloth and cotton yarn, just used to make cotton clothes and quilts, it is enough to make a fortune!
This cotton is not something you can do by planting seeds in the soil and taking care of it frequently. The most important thing is topping, and unless someone knows it, ordinary farmers would not think of doing this.
In addition, how to care during planting, when is the best time to pick cotton, and how to deal with it after picking it back are also very particular.
Lian Fangzhou returned home with great excitement, and gradually calmed down, and became a little discouraged.
Because she doesn't have enough money.
The opportunity is rare. She is sure that in the next year, everyone will see the benefits of cotton. Then, what will she use to compete with the rich? She can only seize the opportunity!
To seize the opportunity, it is not enough to have seeds and technology. The most important thing is to have land and people!
If you want land, you have to spend money to buy it, and if you want someone, you have to spend money to hire.
According to her, it's not safe to hire people. It's best to buy a few honest and hard-working ones through the teeth, so as to ensure that the technology is not stolen so quickly.
Just like this, a few more people want to eat and place to live...
Isn’t that count? I’m surprised when I count it!
In short, Lian Fangzhou understands that it is impossible for her, Lian Ze, and A Jian to make up enough of this money to burn charcoal.
Lian Fangzhou sighed softly, give up? She is really not reconciled, there will be no such shop after passing this village!
There is only one chance.
Lian Fangzhou originally planned to try to borrow money. But after just thinking about it, I gave up the idea.
No one is willing to lend her hundreds or thousands of silver. As a mortgage, their wealth is here, and there is nothing they can hold.
So, can you try to partner with someone? The landlords of Shangcun Zhou, Zhuyuanwai of Zhujiazhuang, Caizhu Li of Shiwan, and Wangyuan of this village are all rich people.
Lian Fangzhou knows that hope is very slim, but she really doesn't want to lose this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, even if there is a one-tenth chance, she must try it.
But the result was terrible. These outsiders and rich people politely refused, and let her go without waiting for her to finish speaking, and some of them didn't even see her at all!
Without exception, these people look at her like a fool, and think that even this big girl is crazy!
Lian Fangzhou even went to find Zhao's family in the county seat and asked to see Zhao Rujun. As she thought, Zhao Rujun was not struggling to take over the business at home with a woman. It can be seen that she is a strange woman, and she might see something different from others!
But even Fangzhou didn't see Zhao Rujun. Magpie saw her when she came. Magpie directly stopped the concierge who was going to report to the lady, and ordered the concierge to send her away. He also yelled towards her back: "What's the matter, don't take a mirror to look at herself, even she dare to come to our lady in a magnificent manner! Our lady is the one who meets her casually! Not ashamed or ashamed!"
There is really no way, Lian Fangzhou can only do things with the money in his hands.
She did a little calculation. This winter, burning charcoal can earn 60 to 70 taels. In addition, the Yang family retired and spent more than a dozen taels left over from the family and nearly 12 taels from selling mushrooms. Lin Lin always made about nine. Twelve.
Leave thirty taels for next year’s various expenses, even Che’s tuition, pen and ink, etc. There are still 60 taels that can be spent.
