Escape in the Year of Disaster: She cheated after dressing up as a peasant mother-in-law

Daling Village is not a big village in Jing'an County. It was originally a small village with only about 20 households. Because Liang Shuyan was successively rewarded by the emperor, it was originally a wasteland that no one wanted, but it suddenly became popular. .

The land in the back mountain is rented for farming. Since roads and schools were built in Daling Village, the value of these wastelands has increased again. No, two more people came to rent the land.

Li Zheng stood on the drying ground and said seriously: "Our wasteland in Daling Village is no longer available for rent. If it is sold, we can consider renting it."

Liang Shuyan hesitated and said, "If you want to sell the wasteland and buy it, these people can do whatever they want. Isn't it chaos? If these wasteland are put to good use, it can be regarded as an explanation to the villagers of Daling Village. .”

The man said with some embarrassment: "What's going on? I heard that it can be rented, so I came here with the rent. Now I am asked to come up with so much money at once, and I really can't come up with it!"

When Liang Shuyan heard this, she quickly stepped forward and said, "Well, Li Zheng, since he has come all the way to our Daling Village, let's rent it to him."

The prestige of the tea concubine in the village is obvious to all, and Li Zheng naturally knows that he will listen to Liang Shuyan's opinions!

So, he took a piece of paper, wrote a contract casually, and handed it to the man!

The man said word by word: "Li Zheng, I want to grow some cotton, give it a try!"

Li Zheng nodded. It would be great if cotton could be grown in the back mountain, but no one has seen it before. It might not be easy to grow it!

Liang Shuyan knew very well that it would be good if cotton could be grown in this dynasty. At least everyone could wear warm cotton-padded jackets. Why not?

"This is a good idea. In winter, if we can produce enough cotton, we can ensure that the people in Jing'an County are not cold, and at the same time ensure everyone's income, wouldn't it be a good thing?"

Liang Shuyan's words made the man in front of her full of confidence. The man thanked her and left!

After listening to Liang Shuyan's analysis, Li Zheng suddenly understood, and the confusion and doubts in his heart were swept away.

He stared at Liang Shuyan with his eyes wide open, full of surprise and admiration, and said excitedly: "Her aunt, you are such a knowledgeable woman! Why didn't I think of this level? You are right, that piece Wasteland cannot be sold, it should only be rented out. Only in this way can the benefit rights be firmly in our own hands."

Liang Shuyan smiled and nodded, her eyes full of determination and wisdom.

Under her influence, Li Zheng seemed to see a brand new future, full of infinite possibilities and hopes.

The two of them were sitting on the kang, facing the mountain behind the window, with new plans and expectations in their hearts.

Now that Su Ling has arrived in Daling Village, the only way for Su Ling to leave is to temporarily stop the construction of the village road!

The construction in the village has stopped, and the workers have all taken a break. What are they talking about at the door of the school?

Seeing Li Zheng, the foreman came over and said with a smile: "Li Zheng, why did the streets in this village stop all of a sudden?"

"There are special circumstances now, so we have to wait and see!"

Li Zheng smiled slightly and did not answer directly, but looked up at the sky. The sun shines through the clouds, dyeing the village golden. On both sides of the street, the originally lively construction scene has disappeared, leaving only flags swaying gently in the wind and traces of lime that have not completely faded. "Look at the sky," Li Zheng said, pointing to the sky, "dark clouds are gathering, and there may be heavy rain. We can't risk letting workers work in the rain."

The foreman followed Li Zheng's gesture and frowned. He could feel the moisture in the air and the distant rumble of thunder.

"What about after this heavy rain?" the foreman asked, feeling vaguely uneasy.

Li Zheng didn't make it clear for a while, so he emphasized with some embarrassment: "I'm afraid I can't be sure yet, because something happened in the village, and the work needs to be stopped for a while. When the time comes to start work, I will naturally give it to everyone. We informed you in advance, but now, I hope everyone can go back quickly!”

There was a commotion in the crowd, and a leading man said: "In this case, we all stay at home and have no income. What should we do?"

When Li Zheng was in trouble, he also looked at Liang Shuyan. This look was a soliciting look. Liang Shuyan had her own ideas. She came to the crowd and slowly spoke: "You all know who came from the village. I believe that we Most of the people in the middle are from Daling Village. We cannot afford to offend this great god. If we disturb the eldest prince, he may be beheaded or even beheaded by the whole family in a rage. What do you think? Is it appropriate? I can understand your mood. Don’t worry, each of you will be given 5 taels of silver for the lost work pay during this period. Otherwise, I will sign here and settle the settlement for you. For wages, I can leave directly, but I want to make one thing clear: I will not accept any work in Daling Village from now on. If you think about it, come here and sign."

Several people whispered: "Isn't this too risky? Where will we work in the future? Except for the relatively high wages in Daling Village, the backbreaking work in the town only costs a little money."

The crowd began to divide into two groups. One group was those who took five taels of silver. They took the money and left with satisfaction. On the other side are those who decided to sign the agreement. They read the agreement carefully, word for word, as if every word weighed a thousand pounds.

One of the middle-aged men, surnamed Li, is a stonemason. He put down the agreement and looked at the silver in front of him, his hands shaking a little. His wife stood next to him, holding his hand gently, her eyes full of worry.

"Sign it?" she asked softly.

Li Shijiang took a deep breath and nodded. He picked up the pen, carefully signed his name on the paper, and then pressed his red fingerprint.

Li Shijiang's hands were shaking a little. He looked at the silver in front of him with mixed feelings in his heart.

He knew that by signing this agreement, he would lose something, but he also knew that if he did not sign, he and his family would not be able to continue living.

His wife held his hand tightly, her eyes filled with concern.

She knew how difficult this decision was for Li Shijiang. She asked gently: "Do you want to sign?"

Li Shijiang took a deep breath and tried to calm down his mood. He nodded, then picked up the pen and signed his name on the paper carefully. His hands shook slightly as he signed, but he wrote his name firmly.
