Datang Nongwang

Chapter 161 The Great Harvest

The day.

Qiao Su, who got the words, borrowed a carriage from Li Chongyuan and went to his family in Chang'an City.

And in the evening.

Qiao Su returned to Lizhuang before dark.

It is a big deal to collect rent from food.

Qiao Su can't do it alone, he must go back to his home to report to the old lady.

Simultaneously.

Qiao Su also brought a few people back.

The few people that Qiao Su brought back belonged to the family's servants, and one of them still learned accounting from the accountant.

When these people came, they were naturally dispatched by the old lady, and they also went to Li Chongyuan to invite Ann.

Grain is called rent collection.

That night, Qiao Su had already informed the villagers.

The next morning.

Li Chongyuan is still like my morning coach.

But Qiao Su and the others brought the few people who had already prepared to collect the rent.

"Steward Qiao, I heard that Li Zhuang's crops will have a bumper harvest this year, and I don't know how much rent we can receive this year." A man stood in front of Li Zhuang's exclusive warehouse, with a big dendrobium next to it, a big bucket, There is also a small wooden liter.

Qiao Su replied with a smile: "It's all thanks to Mr. Xiao Lang. If Mr. Xiao Lang didn't get the horse manure from the racecourse, our Li Zhuang would not have a good harvest."

"Steward Qiao, it seems that you will definitely be rewarded by the old lady this year, and then don't forget to treat us to a drink or two." Another servant congratulated Steward Qiao.

When Qiao Guanshi heard this, although he was happy, he felt a little more sad.

He is in Lizhuang, guarding Lizhuang and doing this job.

Don't you just want to do your job well.

But as soon as Li Chongyuan, the young gentleman, came to Li Zhuang.

He found out that his duties were not as good as Xiao Langjun's, and he really didn't dare to take the old lady's reward.

He was also afraid that the old lady would suddenly change his manager.

After a while.

A family of villagers who was notified came to the warehouse with grain, "Steward Qiao, I am the first to weigh the grain. You see that this year there is a lot of grain. Can you come to my house to weigh it first? My house There are a few burdens in the middle, and I am carrying one load and one load, and some of the loads are too late."

in this era.

But there is no snakeskin bag.

There is no such thing as a sack.

There are clothes made of hemp, but there are no sacks.

Why?

The fields are mainly used to grow crops, and of course some flax and other crops are also planted.

Although flax is mainly used to make clothes, the current farmers and common people basically only use it to make clothes, and they don't know how to use flax to make sacks.

Moreover.

The amount of hemp needed to make a sack is not a small amount.

Furthermore.

Farmers and common people grow hemp, which is also used to pay taxes.

Therefore, in the homes of farmers and common people, apart from pottery jars, they are the burden.

And this burden is either made of bamboo or wattle.

Of course, there are things like buckets.

After hearing what the villager said, Qiao Su didn't think much about it. After nodding, he took the servants and things and followed the villager to his house.

Li Zhuang's field has nearly [-] mu.

There are only 23 households in Lizhuang villagers.

and so.

The average amount of land assigned to each family is only 65 mu.

However, the number of people in each household in Lizhuang is also different, so there are many and there are few.

As for the first family that Qiaosu and the others went to, the land allocated to them was exactly [-] mu.

After a lot of busy work.

The account manager who came from the same family kept his eyes open while remembering the numbers. He couldn't believe that Li Zhuang's harvest was so high this year.

The [-] mu of land occupied by this villager.

He knew the grain production in the past, and this family would never exceed fifty shi.

Available this year.

The grain output of this family's tens of mu is as high as 120 seven stones, which really shocked him.

A stone, in the Qin Dynasty, was almost [-] kilograms, and in the Han Dynasty it was [-] kilograms.

When it came to Tang Dynasty, it was about 53 kilograms.

However, Song Shi returned to the state of 97 kilograms.

A stone is different in different dynasties and periods in ancient times.

Take the present moment for example.

Tang is 53 kilograms, even if it is [-] kilograms to calculate.

The grain of this family in previous years, such as the [-] mu of land he rented, was all planted with crops, and the grain output would never reach [-] catties.

And this year.

The grain of 120 seven shi, compared to previous years, is more than doubled.

After weighing the grains from one household to another.

Whether it was the account manager or the other servants who came from the family to help, all of them were so shocked that they almost couldn't close their mouths from ear to ear.

Until breakfast, Qiao Su and the others came to Li Chongyuan's small courtyard with the grain rent collection records of the three families and reported: "Xiao Langjun, this is the grain situation of Wang Youcai and his three families who arrived early this morning. Take a look."

Li Chongyuan took the account book that Qiao Su handed over, flipped through it and threw it back.

"You continue to weigh the dendrobium, and show me after it's over." Li Chongyuan didn't have the heart to look at the matter of renting a son for the time being.

What he cares about is his own pool.

His plan has been changed and changed recently, and he has been unsatisfied.

As for the matter of rent collection, with Qiao Su and the others around, Li Chongyuan didn't need to worry at all.

Qiao Su and the others didn't seem very happy to see their young master pretending to be, so they left quickly.

"Steward Qiao, what's wrong with Mr. Xiao Lang? Isn't he happy about the bumper harvest?" The account manager asked Qiao Suda.

"No, Mr. Xiao Lang has something to do recently, and he is probably bothered. Let's eat first, and we will be busy in the next few days." Qiao Su quickly changed the subject.

The matter of Li Chongyuan Chizi was often mentioned to Qiao Su.

But recently, as soon as Li Chongyuan talked about the pond, Qiao Su would divert it from the food, which made Li Chongyuan very dissatisfied.

In addition, Li Chongyuan also had no intention of formally mentioning the start of construction with Qiao Su because of the planning map.

And the next few days.

The matter of weighing and renting grain over the dendrobium is also very busy.

With someone to help Qiaosu, things are going smoothly, with a smile on his face every day, and he will happily say hello to everyone he sees.

of course.

Josu is not the only one who is happy.

The villagers in Lizhuang, who are not happy.

Grain extortion said rent collection was over.

Come down in three or four days.

All the food has passed through Hu, and the renters have also been received in Li Zhuang's warehouse.

The entire warehouse is full of food.

The grain of nearly [-] mu of land was received into the warehouse at [-]% of the rent, so it must be piled to the brim.

With such a bumper harvest, Qiao Su suddenly said with emotion: "As soon as Mr. Xiao Lang comes to Lizhuang, my job will not be guaranteed in the future. It seems that I have to tell my sister and brother-in-law quickly, otherwise, the old man If people want to transfer me away, I don't know what else I can do."
