Chapter 225 Autumn Harvest
Jiang Dalang nodded in agreement: "Xiaomi is right."
Huang Yanglong hated iron and stared at Jiang Dalang: "What's the matter with you? Why do you pick Qin every time? Do you want to echo my daughter's words? Don’t men have their own opinions? You are now a famous young hero from all over the country!”
If he hadn’t known about Xiaobai’s loyalty, he would have doubted what Xiaobai said about bravely entering Fragrance Court and wielding a crossbow. The ruthless man who confronted the evil thief was no longer Jiang Dalang.
Jiang Dalang smiled and said: "Xiaomi is indeed right... We have a large population, half of which are women and children. Where can we move easily? Let's leave it like this for now. If the Wu family really uses their status as the village head to embarrass us, we will Report to the official.”
Qin Xiaomi took the opportunity to grab some coolies again and smiled at Huang Yanglong: "Young Master Huang, you're already here. Let's go back to town after finishing the work."
After saying that, ignoring Huang Yanglong's crazy shouting, he hid in the house Comes with a secret recipe package.
Huang Yanglong was almost angry to death. He cursed and cursed all day, but he also helped the workshop with work for a day. When he returned to the restaurant in the town, he almost collapsed from exhaustion.
But...
"Now that I am almost familiar with the operation of the new dye workshop, when we return to Lingnan Prefecture and build the new dye workshop alone, we will not be stuck."
Xiaobai smiled and said: "So Brother Long doesn't have to scold Qin Xiaodong all the time. She is not an ordinary person. She does everything for a reason."
"Huh!" Huang Yanglong snorted coldly, He was stubborn to the end: "I just want to scold her. Who told her to always say good things for Zheng Nandan!"
After hearing this, Xiaobai was smart enough not to answer any more.
......
Because of Wu Xingnan's incident, before dinner, Grandpa Qin called several families to Qin's house and reminded them again: "You must be careful about the people in Wujia Village. People in their village, no matter who comes to you alone, don’t just follow them, got it?”
He also told the story about Wu Xingnan telling Huang Yanglong that he could be an eyeliner and help the Huang family keep an eye on the Qin family.
Qin Liu Po was extremely angry and slapped the table and said: "Thankfully, I thought she was pretty good before. I wanted to marry her on behalf of Aying or Ajie, but I didn't expect she was so vicious!"
Don't dream, Wu Xingnan doesn't like your family at all, and her lowest goal is also a rich young master in Fucheng.
The rest of the people nodded and said: "Don't worry, we will definitely be careful about the Wu family."
Qin Cunquan was even more worried about Grandpa Qin and said to him: "Fifth Uncle, you sir Also be careful. You are the village chief. It is almost the end of the year. There are many things to do about the autumn harvest and paying grain taxes. You have to go to Wu Li's house from time to time to discuss matters. At that time, you must bring two or more people with you. You cannot go by yourself. .”
Grandpa Qin smiled and said: "Don't worry, I know it well. I am already old, and there are not many ways that the Wu family can scheme against me. But you, in your prime, must be cautious."
Finally, again She solemnly confessed: "The Wu family's daughter went to see Mr. Huang and said that she would help keep an eye on our family's affairs and not to tell anyone else... It's not time to break up. Secondly, Chief Wu can say that this is the little girl's own decision and has nothing to do with the family. He can even deny it and then bite us, saying that we lied and ruined his granddaughter's reputation. In short, we know this in our hearts, so be careful. Just be wary of the Wu family.”
“Yes, we remember.” The families responded solemnly, and after a while, they went home to cook.
Qin Laoliu and his wife sneaked into the kitchen of Qin Xiaomi's house, took a few eggs and wild onions, and fled home like the wind.
Grandpa Qin and Grandma Qin were speechless, but now that the family life is better, and they are cousins of the same grandfather, the two elders let the couple take advantage of it.
...
At dawn the next day, men from several families, including Jiang Dalang, wore thin cotton-padded jackets and went to the fields to look at soybean pods.
The field was already full of villagers, and every household came to see their soybeans. When they saw them, they all said hello: "Village chief, you are here too."
"Hey." Qin Grandpa nodded in agreement and wandered in the fields for half an hour. He didn't go home until dawn.
Qin Xiaomi saw him and asked: "Grandpa, have you picked the pods back?"
"I picked it back and here it is for you." Grandpa Qin gave her a handful of soybean pods.
Qin Xiaomi took the bean pods and opened them. He saw that the soybeans were quite plump and he was very satisfied: "It's almost ready to harvest." He then suggested: "Grandpa, the workshop is too busy and our family will definitely not be able to spare time. It’s better to go to the fields to harvest soybeans while the villagers are there. We haven’t harvested soybeans in a big way yet. Our family will ask the villagers to go to the fields to collect soybeans tomorrow. After a few days of work, we can finish harvesting the beans.”
Soybeans are called bean sprouts. It is a very common ration for poor farmers nowadays.
Grandpa Qin thought that this job could help the poor people in the village make a fortune, so he agreed: "Sure."
Grandpa Qin went to find several other families.
Several families think that the work in the workshop is more important and are willing to spend a small amount of money to collect soybeans.
So, soon, the villagers knew that Qin Jiang and Xu Qiao’s family wanted to hire someone to collect soybeans.
The Chai and Zhang families were very concerned about the Qin family's affairs and immediately gathered at the west entrance of the village.
In less than half a quarter of an hour, many villagers gathered at the west entrance of the village.
Grandpa Qin glanced around and said to everyone: "Qin, Jiang, and Xu Qiao's family want to pay someone to harvest in the autumn. There are two prices. One is two hundred and fifty cents per acre. You only need to cut it back and dry it in the open space." , no need to collect beans. The second type is five hundred coins per acre. Not only do you have to harvest the beans, but you also need to dry them.”
“Five hundred coins per acre”
< b r>As soon as the price came out, the villagers were excited, and the Huang family said one after another: "Village Chief, Village Chief, please give this job to our Huang family, and our Huang family will definitely help you do the job beautifully!" "
As for the nine families of Qin Jiang, Xu Qiao, each family has several acres of land, which is dozens of acres. If they can do this job, they will have enough money for the winter!
The Sun family is small and they usually don’t talk in the village. But at this moment, Sun Daliang also ran out and begged: "Village chief, please give me the work of several acres of land to my Sun family. My family will definitely help you." The family has taken care of the work in the field and will never take away a grain of rice!”
Grandpa Qin looked at Sun Daliang and saw that his hair was almost completely white though he had just turned forty. He also thought about the eight members of his family and said, "Don't be anxious. Those who want to get a job can sign up here. As for which one to choose?" There are several houses doing work, and I will inform them in the afternoon.”
"Hey!" Sun Daliang was overjoyed and said hurriedly: "My Sun family will sign up, and my Sun family will save their lives."
"My family will also sign up!"
Almost the entire village signed up.
After half past midnight, Qin Cunquan finished the registration and said: "Okay. Everyone, please go back first. You will be notified in the afternoon."
"Hey, the village chief is here!" The villagers went home one after another to wait for the news and prepare for the autumn harvest.
After Grandpa Qin and the others returned home, they looked at the families who had signed up. In the end, each family chose a family, and the Sun Daliang family said: "Give his family a few more acres of land to work on, so that his family can make some money." Winter money...Cunquan, go and notify them."
"Hey." Qin Cunquan notified them door to door according to the list.
Everyone who gets a job is very happy.
I rushed to the fields before dawn the next day to collect soybeans for Qin Jiang and Xu Qiao's family. I was very busy.
When Wu Sisheng arrived at the ghost village, he was a little embarrassed when he saw the scene in the field.
However, Wu Sixheng still had to bite the bullet and asked someone to report to Grandpa Qin: "Just say that someone from Wu Li's family has come, and he has business to talk to Village Chief Qin."
I originally thought It was him who came, and the Qin family would invite him to sit in the Qin House in the west of the village.
Unfortunately, after what happened to Wu Xingnan, Grandpa Qin will not let the Wu family enter the west of the village now or in the future.
Grandpa Qin came out to see Wu Sixheng in person and asked with a smile: "It turns out to be Mr. Wu, but what are the orders from the chief?"
Wu Sisheng felt embarrassed and said with a smile: "Village Chief Qin, the head of the village asked me to remind you that the weather is getting cold here. It's time to ask the villagers to harvest in autumn, so as not to miss the season and ruin the tax payment."
