How to become the richest man by farming

Chapter 185 Old and New Workshop (Two in One)

Jiang Yun took the time to glance at the crowd in line, and saw that many people with patches on their bodies came to buy raw sweet potatoes in groups, so he knew it well.

It seems that there are still people with knowledge...

Just as he was thinking, the three old farmers approached him and picked out the smallest sweet potato. After paying the money, they stood aside and did not leave.

Jiang Yun didn't care, the things to be prepared were sold out, and seeing that they were still there, he couldn't help but look over.

"Huh?" This person seems familiar?
Seeing that she had finally noticed them, the three hurried forward.

Among them, the old man Jiang Yun was familiar with said nervously, "Miss Jiang, do you still remember the old man?"

Jiang Yun asked uncertainly, "Huxi Town?"

The old man suddenly excitedly said: "Yes, yes, yes! Just outside the grain and oil store in Huxi Town, you taught us to use spiders to control rice lice, and you also said that early rice should be planted shallowly."

"Is the rice lice relieved?" Jiang Yun couldn't help but become concerned.

The old man nodded repeatedly, "Ms. Jiang's method is very effective."

What the old man didn't say was that because he thought Jiang Yun was bragging at the beginning, he also took a piece of land to try with half-belief, but when he tried it and it turned out to be effective, it was too late for other lands.

Just now when I saw Jiang Yang standing next to Jiang Yun, and heard Jiang Yun say that the sweet potato is drought-resistant, I realized that maybe Jiang Yun was the little lady of the Jiang family who developed the cultivation of shiitake mushrooms.

The reason why they waited here was naturally to ask how to grow sweet potatoes.

Knowing that they directly asked about the method of planting sweet potatoes, Jiang Yun was a little surprised, "Aren't you afraid that I'm lying to you?"

The old man quickly explained: "Of course not! You can even grow shiitake mushrooms, and we trust you in planting sweet potatoes!"

Jiang Yun suddenly said, "Have you met my fourth uncle?"

With Jiang Yun's acknowledgment, the old man became even more excited.

Jiang Yun was afraid that he would not be able to bear it, so he hurriedly said: "I will go to the gathering place outside the city to teach sweet potato planting in February next year, before the Qingming Festival, and before the seedlings. If you want to learn, just go there and listen. Leave the address of your village, and I will have someone notify you in advance of the exact date."

"Then... these sweet potato seeds..."

This is a problem.

Jiang Yun asked: "How much do you want to plant?"

Knowing that they want to plant on a large scale, Jiang Yun was a little embarrassed, "To be honest, most of the sweet potatoes harvested in our village this year have been sold. If you want to buy them in large quantities, I can't get them out. In this way, I will turn around Discuss with the buyer and see if we can give you some more at that time."

Anyway, there are not so many sweet potatoes in the gathering place.

Jiang Yun thought so, and there was no delay. After closing the stall that day, Jiang Yang took him to meet the shopkeeper Cao.

Knowing Jiang Yun's reason for coming, shopkeeper Cao shook his head, "We can't share the sweet potatoes from the gathering place with them."

Jiang Yun was anxious, "Why? Didn't I tell you that one sweet potato can grow many seedlings, and the people at the gathering place can't grow all the sweet potatoes you bought."

"It's over." Shopkeeper Cao said, "I'm going to ask someone to open up the nearby mountain land and use it to grow sweet potatoes."

Jiang Yun was taken aback, "You are crazy! Don't you let them grow some rice and wheat? Then don't they have to buy them?"

"No, I will prepare the food they need and distribute it to them as wages."

Jiang Yun didn't understand.

Shopkeeper Cao: "Although your village grows a lot of sweet potatoes, there are still too few of them. If you want to promote the new crop of sweet potatoes, you must first solve the problem of seeds."

Jiang Yun understood a little bit. If shopkeeper Cao and Mr. Han want to use sweet potatoes to create momentum, they must maximize this momentum. Instead of letting the surrounding people plant scatteredly and the harvest varies, it is better to control everything in their hands.

Sure enough, he is a scheming businessman...

Jiang Yun frowned and glanced at Shopkeeper Cao, then bid farewell to Jiang Yang and left.

Shopkeeper Cao was left in a daze, "What kind of eyes did she have just now?" Was she scolding him in her heart?right?
The subordinates on the side: dare not speak.

……

The two walked out of Shopkeeper Cao's yard side by side.

Jiang Yang asked: "Cao shopkeeper refused to share with them, so how do you explain to them?"

Jiang Yun pondered for a moment, then waved his hands indifferently: "It's okay, I'll give it to them!"

"Then you don't grow it yourself?"

"Plant! Just don't plant so much, plant less, just to free up some land for new planting experiments."

……

After the two left, Han Zheng walked out from behind the screen.

The servants withdrew after serving tea.

Han Zheng looked outside the door and said with emotion: "It's really thanks to them this time. Now that I think about it, I really treated the heart of a gentleman with the heart of a villain."

Shopkeeper Cao knew about Han Zheng going to test them back then.

But what he knew better than Han Zheng was that Jiang Yang really had a batch of dirt in his hands.

He doesn't believe it when it is said that it is a "rogue" who robs the rich and helps the poor.

It's just that he didn't tell Han Zheng about this.

After all, they are also Mr. Su's students, so they don't look at the monk's face to see the Buddha's face.

Han Zheng has been an official for many years, and he may not have room for sand in his eyes.

But he is different, as long as he can get things done, he doesn't mind using some special methods.

Besides, for mutual benefit, why would he expose other people's faults?He also hoped that if there was another time, they would come to him to deal with the dirt.

Therefore, regarding Han Zheng's words, shopkeeper Cao only said: "They also benefited from it. Since it is mutually beneficial, Han Gong doesn't have to blame himself too much. If you are really sorry, it is better to reward them with an honor, which can protect them and protect them." It’s also convenient for them.”

Han Zheng thought for a moment and then nodded, "That's fine, if you blindly cover them up, it will make people suspicious, so it's better to give them a painless honor."

……

So, after Jiang Yun and the others had had enough of playing "Sweet Potato Girl", they finally closed the stall and returned to the village.Within two days, a plaque of "House of Accumulation of Kindness" was sent from the county town to Lingkou Village with drums and gongs.

At that time, Jiang Yun's house was in a commotion...

"Why do we pay the money, but the new workshop is returned to you?! It's not just your family who went down the mountain to help those refugees!" Shen Bainian stood in front of a group of villagers, confronting Jiang Yang and others. .

Behind Jiang Yang, there are people who support him.

When Jiang Guazi heard this, he said bluntly: "Your family didn't contribute much, what's your name? At the beginning, Mr. Su asked the students from the school to go down the mountain to help. You heard that there was no wages, and you refused to let Shen Xiazhi go with you. Now you What face do you have to say that?"

"My family has little labor, so what's the problem with keeping him at home?" Shen Bainian said confidently, "Besides, my family doesn't have any males available, but in other Shen's families, most of the males participated.

There is also the old workshop. For so long, we have worked hard for your family. Now that the construction of the new workshop requires us to pay for it, why is your Jiang family the only one?Just because the village chief's surname is Jiang? "

Looking at Shen Bainian who is messing around, Jiang Yang frowned, "When I went down the mountain to help the refugees, all the people who contributed were replaced by young and strong refugees among the refugees. When one person went, two young and strong returned. Salary, but some prey was also shared, and everyone was not allowed to help. Besides, this matter was also discussed at the beginning, and it was all voluntary, and those who don’t want to go will not force it.”

Shen Bainian was so choked that he had nothing to say, so he stuck his neck and yelled: "What about the new workshop, who is talking about helping you! Anyway, if you want us to pay, then the new workshop can't be returned to you as the master." .”

"Then according to your opinion, who should be in charge of the new workshop?" Mrs. Zhou's voice came from behind the crowd.

Everyone moved out of the way, and saw Jiang Yun and Jiang Miao walking out with their heads up while supporting Mrs. Zhou's hand.

Seeing Mrs. Zhou, a group of young adults who followed Shen Bainian to make trouble felt a little guilty.

Shen Bainian also shrank his neck, "The old workshop is in charge of your Jiang family, so the new workshop will naturally be in charge of our Shen family!"

"You've got a good deal." Mrs. Zhou sneered, then looked at Jiang Yang beside her, "In that case, let them take charge of this new workshop."

Jiang Yang was surprised: "Mother?"

But I saw Mrs. Zhou standing on the steps, looking down at Shen Bainian, "Since you claim to be complaining for your Shen family, and your Shen family's patriarch didn't come out to speak, then I'll just pretend that he agrees with what you did. For. Our family does not participate in the new workshop, whether you, Mrs. Shen, want to build the new workshop by yourself, or join forces with other families in the village, it has nothing to do with us."

The people next to Shen Bainian became anxious when they heard it, and pulled his sleeves and whispered: "Da Nian, this is not acceptable. If their family doesn't participate, who will sell the goods?"

Shen Bainian flicked his sleeves, gritted his teeth, and said, "Why are you so anxious? If their family doesn't participate, won't the other members of the Jiang family also participate? As long as members of the Jiang family participate, their family can't ignore it!"

Mrs. Zhou pretended not to see their private actions, and continued: "As for what you said just now, the villagers worked hard for our family in the old workshop. I don't bother to argue with you, a junior. But since You feel wronged in your heart, and I, an elder, can't ignore it, right?"

Granny Zhou's voice paused, and Shen Bainian and the others felt a sense of ominous premonition.

Then I heard Mrs. Zhou continue: "Since this is the case, the workshop will no longer recruit villagers from the end of the ten days. Our family does not want to be charged with enslaving the same village."

Shen Bainian didn't expect Mrs. Zhou to be so ruthless, "You, you don't want to scare us, don't hire people from the village to work, how can you get busy with so few people in your family?!"

Mrs. Zhou didn't even want to give him another look, and said directly to Jiang Yang: "Didn't you say that those young men wanted to settle down near our village last time? I think they are nimble, and we will invite them to our workshop in the future." Come to work."

At this moment, Jiang Yang had also come to his senses, and he said kindly: "I will go down the mountain to contact them tomorrow! The county magistrate has already agreed to this matter."

Jiang Guazi on the side also patted his chest and said: "Auntie, don't worry, there are us, we can endure a lot of hardships. If it weren't for my fourth brother to take us, I'm afraid I'm still drinking porridge now, how can I be alone? Earn three or five taels of silver a month, and live a good life with meat every day? Don't worry, I am willing to work with my fourth brother for the rest of my life."

Jiang Liutiao, Jiang Fengdeng and others also echoed, "There are us."

"And me!" Everyone looked up, only to see Shen Huo Nian, who was trapped at home, walking quickly.

Mrs. Zhou nodded, "Okay, you are all doing well, let Shiro arrange everything. Alright, since the matter has been resolved, let's break up."

Mrs. Zhou helped her forehead as she said, "Hey, my body is really useless when I get older. After talking to the junior, I feel a little dizzy. Help me go back and rest."

Shen Bainian and others: Are you saying that these juniors are deliberately angry with her? !
Before Jiang Yun helped Mrs. Zhou to leave, he said to Jiang Yang seemingly unintentionally: "By the way, fourth uncle, since we will not participate in the construction of the new workshop, can we not pay more than 200 taels for our family?" In this way, can our house be built sooner? Then can I ask for an extra study room? This way, my little aunt, my younger brothers and sisters will have a place to read and practice calligraphy!"

Jiang Yang understood, "Don't worry, I will go down the mountain tomorrow and call for more people to help."

When the people around Shen Bainian heard that more than 200 taels flew away, they hurriedly said: "No, how can you not pay!"

The scene fell silent.

Jiang Yang and others looked at him coldly, "No? Why do you say no to my family's money? Could it be that you can't grab it?"

Jiang Yun, who had already helped Mrs. Zhou into the yard, rushed out with a wooden root in his arms, "Who wants to steal my money?!" As he said that, the wooden stick in his hand broke.

The person who spoke: ...

Shen Bainian pulled the man away and scolded in a low voice: "Idiot! As long as the new workshop is in our hands, are we afraid that they won't pay for it?! They are just scaring us, you really think they are willing to give up the new workshop?" Workshop?"

The man was not convinced and said: "Why can't I let it go! I have already earned more than 200 taels, and I don't have a new workshop to build a big yard! It's all your fault! If you didn't say that you can get more money if you make a fuss Money won’t make trouble like it is now.”

The person next to him also said: "Exactly! Now that Mrs. Zhou has said that she will not hire villagers to work, how will we make money in the future?!"

……

In the blink of an eye, Shen Bainian was overwhelmed by the helpers he brought.

Seeing this, Jiang Yun regretfully picked up the broken wooden stick on the ground, walked back to the courtyard, and closed the courtyard door by the way.

"It's still Grandma who is amazing, and they made a fuss on their own with just a few words."

Jiang Yang said with a smile: "You have also won the true biography of Grandma."

Jiang Yun smiled complacently, and happily went to find Mrs. Zhou.

"Mom, what shall we do next?!" Jiang Yun looked eager to try.

Mrs. Zhou took a sip of tea casually: "Don't do anything, wait for those old men who hide behind and pretend to be dead to come to us in person to beg us. If the sincerity is enough, then think again. If the sincerity is not enough, we can build a new house with peace of mind."

Jiang Yun was stunned, "Isn't it true that we must give up the new workshop to them?" She had only thought that this was a retreat to advance, if she really wanted to give up, as one of the planners of the new workshop, she would naturally be reluctant of.

Mrs. Zhou: "Let them make a fuss. It doesn't matter to us whether it works or not."

Jiang Yang and Jiang Yun looked at each other, already thinking about how to sabotage it secretly.

Mrs. Zhou glanced at the two of them, "I advise you not to intervene. At this time, just wait and watch the show."
