A Husband Who Traveled Through the Famine and Developed a Chronicle

The village chief shook his head helplessly, not all of them were poor.

What happened at the village chief's house was naturally hidden from Bai Xia's eyes.

"Uncle Hai, just watch, someone will definitely be looking for you these days."

Everyone knew that the grain merchant had a relationship with Bai Xia, so they didn't dare to come directly to find Bai Xia, but Yu Dahai was right.

He looked honest and honest, and looked like he was easy to bully.

Of course, since he had been in charge of things for a while, he had a certain aura about him, so those villagers who dared to approach him would only try to get close to him and build a relationship without daring to offend him.

Bai Xia's guess was correct. Since that day, someone had been trying to get close to Yu Dahai.

The first people to approach him were the few people who came to help repair the pig pen. Taking advantage of the convenience of work, they inquired about the grain merchants from Yu Dahai.

"Butler Yu"

Yu Dahai went to inspect the place where the pig pen was built. As soon as he arrived, a man stopped him.

The man is six feet tall, about 20 years old, with slightly dark skin.

With a scarf tied on his head, he looked very honest and honest.

But in front of Yu Dahai, their honesty and honesty were compromised.

"Steward Yu, we heard... we heard that the grain merchants in the town have left. Do you know when they will come back?" His mother is in charge of the money at home, and the village chief came to the town. He could buy grain, and when the grain merchant would stay for three days, he wanted to buy grain at that time.

But if his mother doesn't do it, she doesn't think it's a bluff.

I also thought that the grain merchant would stay for three days, and after other families in the village bought it, they would see if the grain was good and then decide whether to buy it.

Unexpectedly, it had only been one day and the grain merchant had left.

His mother went to the village chief's house to cause trouble, but the village chief's wife scolded her back.

When you get home, let him find a chance to ask.

There is still food at home, but not much. It will be fine to last until the Chinese New Year, but it will be a little difficult to last until tomorrow's autumn harvest.

"I don't know about this, but they are coming from the south. It takes months to come back and forth."

"Don't worry, if there are grain merchants coming next time, I will definitely tell the village chief that everyone just saves money. We have money, are we still worried about not being able to buy grain?"

Yu Dahai thought to himself that it was just as the lady said, these people were anxious because they had not bought any food.

He has said so, and it is not easy for others to ask.

I'm still working in someone else's house. If I offend my master's family, it won't be good if they replace me.

Seeing them working conscientiously and the pigsty taking shape, Yu Dahai couldn't help but nodded with satisfaction.

Although the villagers in Dou'er Village are some cunning people, most of them are honest.

When repairing the pig pen, they don't care about food, so at noon, those who come to help either eat some solid food, or someone from home brings some food to deal with it.

They have no complaints either.

A few days passed in the blink of an eye, and the pigsty was almost completed.

The radish seeds in the ground began to germinate, and a few buds appeared on the soil layer, not many, and many of them were still under the ground.

Bai Xia received another letter from Li Xiuyuan.

After reading the content of the letter, she frowned tightly.

In the letter, Li Xiuyuan said that if he wanted to buy the land in Liu Yunzhai, he would need to prepare at least 20 taels of silver.

He was young, and it was not easy for him to occupy a piece of territory openly. She guessed that he should have a lot of people under his command, and it might be possible to pick one out for appearance, but looking at him, it seemed that his previous life experience had influenced him. , he was afraid that the person he picked out would not be trustworthy, so he stubbornly wanted to buy a mountain.

At that time, he will be the legitimate leader of the village.

It's just that the money to buy the mountain is quite a lot, 20 taels of silver is not a small sum.

In addition, the letter also said one thing, saying that the emperor seemed to intend to annex the land and strictly prohibited the sale of land.

It was familiar, very similar to her previous life.This is to reclaim the land as state-owned. In the future, all land will belong to the state, whether it is common people or nobles, they only have the right to use it, but not ownership.

Logically speaking, this is a good thing.

But now for Li Xiuyuan, that's not necessarily the case.

Banning land sales is easy to achieve. At most, the government will provide funds to buy these lands. However, if you want to get back the land in the hands of the nobles, it will not be possible for 80 years.

Even though the emperor is above tens of thousands of people, when he is in power, he will still be checked and balanced by the aristocratic family, and he cannot do whatever he wants.

So if the emperor had this idea, he could only do it step by step.

20 taels of silver.

She glanced at the transmutation pool and adjusted the display mode.

Changed the energy value mode to silver mode.

8 taels of 788 Wen.

She silently counted the energy points Li Xiuyuan needed. Without exposing her golden finger to the world, the 20 taels of silver was too difficult.

Just as he was thinking about it, Yu Dahai came into the house after finishing his work.

"Miss, this is the amount of money everyone used to buy grain that day, a total of 10 taels, 950 Wen, and a total of 365 kilograms of grain sold. The village chief's family bought 165 kilograms, the patriarch's family bought 195 kilograms, and the rest was scattered among the people in the village. bought"

Handing the money and account book to Bai Xia, Yu Dahai spoke in a very calm tone.

It's only more than 10 taels and less than 11 taels of silver, which is really not much.

The silver he handed over was all broken silver and copper coins. It was obvious that everyone in the village had worked hard to save it.

"I have some gadgets here. Can you find someone to dress up as a salesman and go to the village to see how these gadgets sell?"

After receiving the money and the account book, I looked through it and found that there were only a few accounts belonging to the village chief, clan chief and a few scattered accounts. They were very few and the amount of money received was not much.

However, after deducting the cost, Bai Xia made two-thirds of the profit from this batch of grain. In other words, the cost was more than 3 taels, and the net profit was more than 7 taels.

She took out a package from the house with some sundries in it.

There are handkerchiefs, hairbands, combs, caramel, and a little coarse salt, very little, about one or two.

In addition to these things, there are some miscellaneous things.

"By the way, don't the people in the village have any clothes to wear?"

Thinking of those children when they first entered the village, Bai Xia's heart moved.

Cloth can be regarded as a hugely profitable business, but now everyone still needs to focus on food first.

But the weather is getting colder and colder, and a severe drought will be followed by a severe cold.

There is a common saying among the people, it is called marrying a Chinese, marrying a Chinese, wearing clothes and eating.

Explain that dressing is as important as eating.

"I didn't ask specifically, but except for the adults in the village, almost no girls were seen. I asked the village chief before, but he hesitated and didn't say anything."

If it is true that Bai Xia guessed that the girls are at home and have no clothes to wear, it is really hard for the village chief to say.

"I'll ask Yun Shu to go out and do some research tomorrow."

First satisfy their needs for food, and then satisfy their needs for clothing, but before that, they must have money to buy grain and money to buy clothes.

The next day, Yun went out with a small bag of malt candies in his schoolbag.

She is young and can speak well. When she meets the aunts and ladies in the village, she calls them sweetly.

After running around for a day, she found out how many people there were in each household.

Good morning, and I wish all book friends a happy National Day!
