Abilities Farming: Nongmen Yaoxiang

Chapter 119
Wei Chi left suddenly and didn't give a detailed explanation. Anyway, Yu Xiao was used to it, but Wei Chi still ignored Yu Xiao's objection and insisted on keeping the jade token!After several twists and turns, the jade token finally returned to Yu Xiao's hands.

Wei Chi is gone, Hu Mei is dead, but the road construction is still going on. The villagers have changed from disdain and suspicion to deep admiration.The road in their village is definitely the best road in the ten miles and eight villages. Whether they walk or not, they are extremely honored!
Moreover, Yu Xiao took a shortcut, and no longer had to go around three mountains to get to Jiangzhou Town. The distance was shortened by as much as half, and everyone's enthusiasm for paving the road became even higher!

After another month of calm, the road surface was finally repaired. It cost her almost 1 taels of silver, but Yu Xiao didn't feel bad. In the long run, it was still very cost-effective. Not a lot.

This matter naturally alarmed Governor Dou, and Governor Dou also stared dumbfounded at the so-called concrete road with Yuxiao, and was simply stunned. It was no different from the road built by the town officials!How much he wanted Yu Xiao to repair other places in Jiangzhou Town, of course he was just thinking about it, but he couldn't say it.

"Yu Xiao, what is your cement? It's actually stronger than burnt loess, and it looks better!" Magistrate Dou couldn't help asking.

"I researched and blended it myself, and you don't understand it! It's just that there are not many raw materials for this cement, and there is nothing I can do if I want to blend it!" Yu Xiao looked at Zhifu Dou's bright eyes, and said so.

She didn't want to have nothing to do with this cement and play with it every day. Sure enough, Zhifu Dou sighed in disappointment when he heard her say that.In an instant, Prefect Dou became happy again. There is such a good road in Jiangzhou Town, and he has a bright face. This year's evaluation can be imagined!
"This way, should I report it to you? Maybe there will be some rewards!" Dou Zhifu said with a smile, thinking of Yuxiao and such a lady title, this girl is really amazing, which made him a little Jealous!

Yu Xiao shook his head, "No need, just say that for the prosperity of your homeland, you privately raised money to build it. Didn't you send out the official document for the road construction back then? It's okay to say that!"

Prefect Dou looked at Yu Xiao in surprise, for such a great contribution, Yu Xiao actually gave it to him without saying a word, which moved him so much!There was an amiable look in the eyes that looked at Yu Xiao.

Yu Xiao continued, "It's just that the magistrate, you should know that I built this road with my own money. Now that the road is repaired, my family's fortune is almost wiped out. I thought, set up a road card at the entrance of the village. , charging a small fee to passers-by."

Prefect Dou has benefited from Yuxiao. Hearing Yuxiao's request at this moment, he seems a little hesitant. Yuhu Kingdom has not mentioned tolls yet. Of course, no one can build such a good road without permission. This request It's not unreasonable! "How much are you going to charge!"

"Not much, five cents a trip!"

Prefect Dou thought about it, and immediately agreed, "Okay, you accept it, and I will give you the next document!"

Dou Zhifu has also considered it, but five Wen is not much. Yu Xiao spent tens of thousands of taels on this road, and maybe spent all the items rewarded by His Majesty. Now it is reasonable to charge this five Wen .

"Thank you Magistrate Dou, I have a bottle of Yulu Pill from Meiyantang here, it's for your wife!" Yu smiled and handed it over with a corner of his mouth.

Governor Dou is so satisfied, this girl is too sensible, this thing is worth a hundred taels of silver a bottle, and there is no price in the market, his wife has been talking about it for a long time, and then smiled, "You girl, you are spending money, spending money Already!"

Yu Xiao took the paperwork and left satisfied. For a not-so-good person like Prefect Dou, it would be beneficial to win him over a little bit.

Magistrate Dou felt that the five renminbi was not much, but he couldn't bear the crowds in these villages and the long stream of water, and the five renminbi was only the price of a trip!

……

After going back, Yuxiao did exactly what he said before. A checkpoint was set up at the entrance of the village to collect tolls. Of course, you don’t have to pay them. You can still go around your three mountains!You can even leave the village gate, she has no objection!
It's just that she is going to get a migrant worker in the city, and if you don't leave the village, there are always ways to lure you out of the village!
It doesn't take much time to grow medicinal materials in the village on weekdays.Since Yuxiao rented the land, he got a unified planting and collective management, and it took even less time.In their spare time, the villagers in the village just idled around and played around. Those who couldn't survive those days tried to find ways to work in other people's homes to make ends meet.And among the people who couldn't make it through, there were two of them, Yu Xiao thought it was not bad.

Zhao Hui and Zhang Wu, one wife is weak and sick, and this little income for a year is all spent on medicines.One is that her parents passed away, and she was kicked out by her cruel sister-in-law at the age of 15!Life without land and land is hard!
Can't live?That's good, let's go to the city to work!

Now send Qi Yuan to lobby the two people, Qi Yuan has a good tongue, and he speaks in an orderly manner, one thing is another.

For the two of them at the beginning, Yu Xiao would naturally help them a little bit!Just wait and see, this road will be full of people sooner or later!
Soon, the news that Zhao Hui and Zhang Wu were going to work in the city spread to all the villages!
"Have you heard? Those two boys are going to work in the city!"

"Of course I heard about it. I don't know what kind of daydream I had, dare to say such big words, Jiangzhou Town is not as easy to live as in the village! I don't know what I was fascinated by!"

"What else can it be? Naturally, I want to make a lot of money. What a fool, I'll find out when I bump into a bag! It won't be long before I will come back in despair!"

These people are like the frogs at the bottom of the well, making fun of those who want to jump out of the well!

Zhao Hui and Zhang Wu didn't have Yu Xiao's unafraid of others' words, so they didn't dare to go out because of the rumors.But they agreed to go, so of course they will go, and try their luck, what if it works?Anyway, life is already at the bottom, and it won't fall again!
With this mentality of breaking the jar, the two people, led by the people arranged by Yuxiao, entered Jiangzhou Town!
It was the first time for both of them to go out of the village, looking at the huge Jiangzhou Town, so bustling with people coming and going, they looked around in a daze!

"You were introduced to the city by the lady. I am Zhou Wei, a villager in Lingpan Village. Come with me!" The person who spoke was one of the stewards of the Beauty Hall.

Under Ma Yu's arrangement, Lingpan Village has been cultivating independent stewards to prepare for the future development of the Beauty Hall.Now there is no need to guard the Beauty Hall personally. Once each shop is opened, it will be equipped with three stewards, and these stewards will be responsible for everything in it!Now this has become a model, gradually unfolding!

The two followed this man named Zhou Wei and left.They looked at Zhou Wei curiously. He didn't look like a villager. He was wearing a black silk shirt, his hair was neatly arranged, and there was a jade-encrusted belt around his waist. No matter how he looked, he looked like a gentleman in the city!
Zhou Wei took the two of them to the Beauty Hall, talked about some precautions, and asked the two of them what they planned to do!In the end, these two people really know nothing!
"Are you willing to go to a restaurant to do handyman? Or do some physical work, carrying or something. Although you are a little tired, you can get the money now!" Zhou Wei asked. He also had a headache, but the lady explained that no matter what Let these two stay in Jiangzhou Town!
"willing!"

"We're willing to do anything!"

Zhao Hui and Zhang Wu hurriedly said, nodding vigorously, as long as there is something to do, why are they so picky?

Zhou Wei nodded, and took the two of them to the first floor, because the beauty hall has a special status in Jiangzhou Town, and has some friendship with the shopkeeper on the first floor, so it is not a big problem to arrange two people !
Fortunately, both of them entered the first floor and became handymen!You don't need to be technical, you don't need to be eloquent, you just need to be able to endure hardships and stand hard work. Regarding this, as a person from the village, naturally there is no problem!
The monthly fee was [-] Wen, and board and lodging were included. The eyes of the two of them would go out when they heard this. You must know that after a year of planting medicinal materials, an acre of land only costs one tael of silver, which is still the high price given by Yu Xiao.Now it only takes two months to get one tael of silver, and the most important thing is that it also includes food and lodging!What a good thing this is!

At that moment, the two started working sincerely, without being lazy at all, rushing to do the dirty work, thinking that they must always be worthy of the wages offered by the boss!

In this way, in a flash, two months have passed. In addition to getting a monthly payment of one tael of silver, the two of them were also praised by the shopkeeper and gave them a piece of green cloth. The two happily asked for a half-day vacation with the shopkeeper. Go home and send the money back to your wife.Fortunately, Zhao Hui also went back together. When he was kicked out of the house, he was lucky to be taken care of by the grandmother next door.

When the two appeared at the entrance of the village, some villagers saw them!
"Look, those two boys are back, I said how could they stay in Jiangzhou Town!"

"That's not right, look at that kid Zhao Hui, what he is holding seems to be meat!"

"The two actually bought cloth, and they've only been out for two months. Let's go, let's follow up and have a look!"

Zhao Hui and Zhang Wu held their chests up, like students going out for an exam, returning home in full clothes!People kept following to watch the fun.

Zhang Wu's wife greeted her from a distance, looked at her husband, and wiped her tears. If it wasn't for her, why would the husband go to work, and why would the villagers laugh at him!
"Ah Hua, why did you come out, come in quickly, look what I brought back for you, this blue cloth can make two clothes for my son, this is the pastry that the shopkeeper rewarded me, try it, it's very good something!"

The two went back to the house talking and laughing, shutting out a curious person.

So everyone's eyes turned to Zhao Hui.

Holding the large piece of pork, Zhao Hui shouted loudly, "Grandma, open the door quickly, we have a good meal today!"

Everyone looked at each other!
