Female supporting roles rely on food to save themselves

Chapter 217 Power
Gu Zhuangben is also hovering on the most dangerous edge.

The village is poor, but if there is any natural or man-made disaster, many people will not be able to live on. In the past few months, many people have no way to survive.

If people don't eat, they will definitely starve to death.

Who knows what will become of the people who are about to starve to death?

If it hadn't been for her girl, who got an adventure from somewhere when she didn't know it, and cleaned up this pool of stagnant water, the fate of everyone in their village would not be what it is today.

Jiang shi thought about the kind of thing not long ago, and suddenly it didn't hurt so much.

She felt that her daughter was too soft-hearted and wanted to take care of too many people, and she suffered a lot.

But if you think about it carefully, money is enough. Even if they have mountains of gold and silver, they can leave countless wealth to their children and grandchildren. In such a world, how much use can a family have.

Jiang Shi suddenly calmed down, smiled and said: "Since the vegetable-growing skills are all Sanniang's, you got them from your teacher, so naturally you are in charge."

She paused, and felt sorry for her daughter: "San Niang, is there something wrong with the ingredients of 'Gu Ji' recently? I heard from Cherry that the chickens and ducks in Dali Village can't be harvested these two days, especially What about Li Mao’s family, who promised to sell us all the pears he had saved, and he would rather lose money than sell them?”

Thinking of this, Mrs. Jiang became angry, "At the beginning, he was the one who came to supply the goods by himself. If he doesn't respect his reputation like this, will he still do business in the future!"

Gu Xiang was startled: "Is there such a thing?"

Jiang's: "..."

Gu Xiang thought for a while, and then remembered that Qiu Li had mentioned it yesterday, but they, Gu Ji, had never been short of ingredients, so they didn't care too much.

Jiang smiled lightly: "Forget it, clown, don't think too much, let's do our own thing, Sanniang is a greenhouse vegetable, do you intend to sell it, or what?"

Gu Xiang pondered for a while: "My daughter plans to sell it to the villagers, but only to our Guzhuang people. Only those who have accumulated more than [-] points are eligible. After buying it, they must sign a contract. The yamen is fair and cannot be resold."

"I plan to sell a set of skills for 40 taels of silver, plus [-] points, including teaching and training."

Jiang Shi was startled: "So much?"

That is to say, now, in the past, the few members of their family did not eat or drink and saved for several years, and I am afraid that they would not be able to save 40 taels of silver.

Gu Xiang smiled: "I am not the only one with this technology, but those who have this technology will not sell it easily. You will not lose money if you buy it. I will teach and teach. At the current price of vegetables in winter, I can make two They can earn it back in three years, and if they can’t find a market, I can sign the harvest contract in advance to guarantee that they will receive their vegetables at the current market price.”

"Of course, there is another option. I am going to start a farm in the village, and I want to recruit agricultural workers. I need to sign a contract with me for more than 30 years for skilled workers, and the treatment is the same as that of Qiuli, Cherry, Lao Du and others. , when I am old, I will be responsible for providing for the elderly..."

At present, these people in Gu Xiang's family, such as Qiu Li's two sisters, Lao Du, Ah Feng, Lao Gou, Wang Ermu and other people who came out of the Yongyi Army, have all signed her a body contract.

Gu Xiang has also overcome the awkwardness in his heart now, and he is doing as the Romans do, and he has more and more people under his hands.

I have to say that she feels different when she handles a person who has signed the contract.

Nowadays, although the imperial court has abolished the slave population, common people are not allowed to keep slaves, ordinary people can call slaves and maidservants, and these slaves and maidservants sign living deeds, as long as they have money, they can redeem themselves, but it is always difficult to change customs, but anyone who signs Body deed, it can be said that wealth and life are tied to the master, and it is never easy to betray the master.

She and all the villagers in Guzhuang have formed an alliance of interests, and the patriarch has a greater right to speak, which is an indirect means to expand influence and power. Raising more people under her hand is a more direct means.

Nowadays, those aristocratic families who can control their own destiny, no matter what they say on the surface, have the habit of raising tribal members and even cultivating dead soldiers in private.

The pressure on the Li family in the capital is on the table.

Her life experience is likely to be very complicated.

Gu Xiang felt that it would be good to make some plans early and make more preparations. In this world, even if she can save her own life, it is really not easy for her to live a good and comfortable life.

"If this farm goes well..."

It's probably on Gu Zhuang's territory, so she doesn't have to worry about anything.

And she runs a restaurant, in fact, the most important thing is not only craftsmanship, but also good ingredients.

Since the ingredients raised in Dongtianfudi are of high quality, of course they should be used. Building a farm by yourself can also ensure that you don't have to be controlled by others in terms of ingredients.

"It depends on the wishes of the villagers."

Gu Xiang said softly, "Join my farm, I can ask someone to teach you how to breed, how to farm, how to breed..."

Jiang smiled and said, "Don't worry, we have the land in our hands, we won't lose money no matter what."

Although she doesn't understand what is so good about this kind of land, but she knows that her daughter has a field, so she is already invincible.

At the beginning, Gu Xiang took most of Guzhuang and the surrounding wasteland. Now, after counting, excluding the mature fields that the Gu family rented to the folks in Guzhuang, there are more than a hundred that can be reclaimed. are.

Among them, it is relatively easy to develop, and there are more than 60 hectares that need to be sorted out. If you want to plant it, you need at least more than [-] people, and you have to plant [-] acres by one person to squeeze every bit of potential. Gu Xiang can't do this To do it, more manpower is needed.

Gu Laoshi is very worried about this, he is a farmer, no matter how rich he is, but seeing his family's land lying there, he feels very distressed.

Not only him, but in the first few days of winter, the old patriarch took his children and grandchildren, as well as idle clansmen, around the semi-barren land all day long.

Seeing that the ground was idle, he couldn't help but sighed.

Gu Xiang felt that if these fields were not dealt with quickly, she might still feel that it was nothing, and the old patriarch would first feel distressed and something went wrong.

Gu Xiang originally thought that this matter might be more complicated. If there is no rush, he should first sell the technology of growing vegetables in the greenhouse to ensure the urgent supply of vegetables in his restaurant, but it was only for one night. When he opened his eyes the next day, autumn When Li was pouring water for her, she explained a few words in passing—"The income in the account is 160 taels of silver, and the one-time payment for selling the body is also 160 taels of silver. This month, 32 more people's salaries, meal allowances, etc. will be paid, totaling About 120 eight taels, and the bonus is calculated separately."

"..."

There are four families in Guzhuang who have met the conditions, and there are 32 people who want to buy her greenhouse planting technology and join the farm.

While making plans, Qiuli was worried, unwilling to give away her chickens that lay golden eggs for nothing, but she didn't dare to speak out, and only looked at her with pitiful eyes.

"Sanniang, your teacher is really capable, and the dishes you send are cheap and good."

"The chives we grow in our own basement can be harvested in fifteen days. There are several kinds of these, and we can plant them separately. We will not be short of vegetables all winter."

Gu Xiang was amused, no matter how she said it, her girl finally learned to be tactful.
