Chapter 67 (1/2)
”Nonsense!” Zhang Lizheng glared at the direction of the sound, but he didn't have a good way to breathe: ”this seed doesn't fall from the sky, can you spare money? This is a very cheap price! By the way, by the time of autumn harvest, this half of the land will be taxed less than half of the grain planted, which is also considered to be a generous act of the imperial court! ”
As soon as they heard that they wanted money, they began to talk about it. They heard that the tax revenue would be reduced by half. Instead of being happy, they were more worried. Worrying about this kind of thing is not a thing!
Think about it, or the court will be willing to pay less tax?
”Zhang Lizheng, if someone is willing to help others grow, can this work?” Lian asked aloud.
The crowd then ”cut” a burst of laughter, looked at Lian Fangzhou like a joke, and thought that the big girl of Lian's family was stupid, who would like to help others grow their own family? I wish I could throw it all to someone else's house!
Zhang Lizheng was also stunned for a moment. After thinking for a moment, he nodded: ”as long as both sides are willing, of course, there is no problem!”
Lian Fangzhou said ”Oh” and then asked, ”did the government send someone to guide us how to grow it?”
”No!” Zhang Li said: ”but to plant something, who don't understand us farmers? Where else should the government send someone to guide such trouble! ”
Lian Fangzhou did a sudden realization, and he no longer spoke much.
In fact, the imperial court intended to send people down to give directions, but these seeds were rare and few could be planted. The trial was the job that the governor of Southwest China asked to do to please the crown prince and show the talent of the local people. Of course, he would not let the imperial court send people down. Isn't it just farming? The new seed is not the same as the seed. If you sprinkle it in the ground, do you want to take care of it carefully, fertilize it and water it?
What's more, it's just a trial. If it doesn't work, there are reasons for it, such as acclimatization, unsuitable climate, etc.
In a word, if you don't succeed, your attitude is positive and sincere. If you succeed, it's a great achievement!
”All right, all right! It's settled. Don't forget to go to my house and take the seeds! Don't forget! ” Zhang Lizheng said, walking down and waving: ”it's all gone!”
Then the crowd dispersed.
”Just what she can and what she asks are bullshit! Don't be afraid to make people laugh! ” Lian Fangzhou then heard Qiao's not far behind him, not close to him.
She and Lian Ze looked at each other, smiled at Lian Ze, and left without Qiao's voice.
”You don 't have to worry about it. We' ll see what the villagers do in a few days.” Gradually go far, see no one around, Aunt Zhang said such a sentence to Lian Fangzhou.
Lian Fangzhou was shocked. Although she didn't quite understand what it meant, she knew that Aunt Zhang would never harm her, so she smiled first. Say goodbye to each other.
Lianze then said: ”sister, Aunt Zhang is right. Don't look at what Li just said. I think he has a headache. Few people will take the initiative to get the seeds! Let's watch it first. If the big guys don't get it, we don't get it! ”
This is the law does not punish numerous offenders?
Even Fanzhou is relieved to think about it. It's not something else. It's land grabbing with big guys! It's a matter of life. Who can't bear it?
However, it just shows that her chance has come! She asked Zhang Lizheng about those two sentences, not in plain terms.
Potatoes, cotton, others do not know what, but she knows! That's really a good thing!
Potatoes are enough, but cotton, as long as it is planted for a season, not to mention the high-grade cotton cloth and cotton yarn, just for making cotton clothes and quilts, is enough to make a fortune!
