Chapter 912
"Girl, I really don't have so much money. Let me see it this way. I'll ask a doctor to come over and look at it for you. How about paying as much money as you use?" The coachman regretted it very much at the moment. 50 taels of silver!Now that the carriage is ruined, they have to pay 100 taels, which is dragging down the family.

Sure enough, being a human being really shouldn't be too greedy, people's hearts are not enough to swallow an elephant!Be petty and lose big!

Hearing this, Fang Wanping looked at his clothes with a dark face and disgust. The black cotton clothes had been washed to white. Although there were no patches, she knew that he was poor at first glance, but being poor was his business and it was up to her. What's the matter?So this money must be paid: "You have to pay the doctor's money, and you have to pay for the 100 taels!"

"What?" The more you talk, the more you lose!This is the rhythm of bankruptcy!

The old driver was a little impatient: "Girl, even if I sell myself, I don't have that much money to pay you!"

"That's your business, what has it to do with me? Okay, you go back to the city to find my parents and let them send a carriage to pick me up! I'll give you three days to collect the money, and then you will get the money Just return the Garden Hotel to me!"

What else did the old coachman want to say, his carriage injured her, and he thought it was right to compensate her for medical expenses, but why did he need to pay 100 taels!

This girl is the daughter of Tong Zhi!How can you pit your own money? !

Fang Wanping didn't want to talk to him anymore, so she said, "Say one more thing, I don't know if my injury will get worse if it drags on, and you will have to pay more money by then!"

After hearing this, the old coachman decisively shut up and didn't dare to say any more. This official is not a good one, and it's hard to catch the wolf, and the days to come will be peaceful!Who knew that the wolf was caught and a tiger was attracted!

He turned around silently, and drove away in his broken carriage.

Xiaoling worried: "Miss, will he abscond in fear of crime and just walk away?"

The corner of Fang Wanping's mouth twitched: "Absconding in fear of guilt is not used in this way. If you don't understand it, don't use it indiscriminately! Just walk away? Hmph, forgive him for not daring!"

The coachman had been discussing the issue of compensation, and he didn't find any excuses to shirk his responsibility. It can be seen that he was a bully, and Fang Wanping believed that he would not run away by himself.

Besides, in order not to lose money, it is not cost-effective to leave the country.

Xiaoling nodded, she also felt that the coachman was not that kind of person.

"Help me to sit on the rock under that tree over there." Fang Wanping pointed to a banyan tree by the roadside and said.

It's noon now, and the sun is at its fiercest time of the day. Although it's early autumn, Fang Wanping is a person who tans quickly, so she doesn't dare to stay in the sun for too long.

"Miss, can you walk on your feet?"

"The fall was painful at first, but it's not so painful now, and I can't walk on only one foot, and the other foot is just bruised a little bit."

After hearing this, Xiaoling went to help her, but she felt sorry for the coachman, and was cheated of 100 taels just like that.

……

Xiao'er and the others traveled in their carriage for a while before arriving at a town.

There is a low-lying area in this town, which is often hit by floods, which seriously threaten the lives of the people. Even rice is not easy to cultivate and harvest.

Xiao'er said that the best place to build a mulberry fishpond is in a low-lying place, and Jing Rui deliberately asked the Yamen's catchers to find out such a place.

And this happened to be the village of a newly promoted head-hunter, so today he brought them here.

A few people got out of the carriage, and the head catcher led them to a flat field. In early autumn, the field was green with a hint of yellow at first glance.

"This year's rainy season is not too long, so the crops grow fairly well this season." Catcher explained.

The terrain here is too low, and most of the rainwater from the sky flows here, so the paddy fields here are always in a state of water all year round.

This year's rainy season is not long, and the embankment has not broken, and the crops here have not been damaged by floods. It can be said that it is a good harvest year, but not every year is so lucky. There are few good harvest years and many bad harvest years.

"In these paddy fields, the water is not deep enough to raise fish, and the yield is not high enough to grow food. Even if fertilizer is added to the field, the fertilizer will be washed away by the water. The villagers are quite troubled by this."

Xiao'er nodded her head to express her understanding. Even if it is to grow rice, rice does not need too much water for a period of time.

Especially in the harvest season, the field should be dry and the surface of the field should be hard, so that it is convenient for people to harvest.

"This place is very suitable for building mulberry fish ponds. The low-lying land is dug deep into fish ponds to raise freshwater fish; the soil is piled up around the fish ponds to form the foundation of the pond, so that flooding can be alleviated during flood seasons, and the people can rely on selling fish. Comparing yourself with selling mulberry silk to earn money, you can kill two birds with one stone."

"I wonder if the villagers are willing to sell these paddy fields?" Zhu Yan looked at the catcher.

The head catcher shook his head after hearing this: "It's hard to say, because even if the production in this field is not good, at least there is hope every year. If you sell the field and run out of money, what will you use to support yourself in the future? "

So generally speaking, people with fields will not sell their fields unless they have to!

Because there are fields and land, it represents hope.

Zhu Yan can understand that there are no special circumstances, and the villagers will not sell the fields, but if the villagers do not sell, even if it is suitable to build a mulberry fish pond here, it will be useless to her!
After hearing Zhu Yan's words, Xiao'er said, "Why do you have to buy a field! You can rent the fields of the common people according to the rent or the amount of food per mu! Or directly provide them with the technology of mulberry fish ponds, Then sign a cooperation document, and then you can buy the fish and silk raised by them!"

Shengping County is ready to try out farmland distribution to households. In the next ten years, 20 years, 30 years or even further in the future, the whole country will implement farmland distribution to households. Buying land?Who knows if it will be bought back by the court at a low price one day.

Now the production of grain is higher in many places, and the price of grain is decreasing every year.In a few years, food will gradually become the least valuable food besides vegetables. After all, vegetables have a short growth period, so they cannot be compared together.

Food is worthless, you can’t eat it all, and you can’t make much money by selling it. People won’t even buy it as much as before. After all, there are many people with one or two acres of land, and the food they grow is enough for the whole family. purchase.

In this way, those landlords who originally earned a lot of money by selling grain every year will naturally not be willing to farm anymore. They have no money to earn, hold so many fields in their hands, and accumulate so much grain in their hands every year, or sell them at a low price with heartache, or die In their hands, how could they be happy!
