Go to the field, director Chen pointed to a paddy field and said, "girl, the best growing one is the first-class paddy field, and the second one is the medium paddy field." While walking with Yuxi, he said how to distinguish the quality of paddy field and the difference between them.
Yuxi spent more than a year in Zhuangzi in his last life, and he also had a little understanding of farming. At present, he also asked several questions.
The work in the grange is the only one that Chen Guanshi can do. Naturally, he will not be asked, and his answer is very detailed. Yu Xi nods repeatedly.
Chen Guanshi felt strange in his heart. The girl had been in the boudoir all the time. How could she know the things in the field? He said with courage, "the girl knows so much."
Yu Xi knew what Chen Guanshi was wondering about, and said with a smile, "I know all this from books. I'm talking about soldiers on paper. It's the experience passed down by my ancestors that I can't manage things."
Chen Guanshi was relieved. He saw it in the book: "this book is really a good thing. He even talked about farming."
Yuxi smiled and didn't reply to Chen's words.
After spending half an hour watching the paddy field, a group of people went to the foot of the mountain. On the way, Yuxi asked about the field rent: "how much is the field rent here? Is it 50%? " The land rent of the big families in the capital is 50%. In general, we will collect 50% of the total, but there are exceptions. For example, if 50% is collected here, it is impossible for the steward to live in such a good house. Yuxi didn't want to reduce or exempt the land rent, but he would not exploit the tenants and increase their burden.
Director Chen nodded: "the land rent of Lu family before is 60%. Because of the high yield per mu, even 60% of these tenants still have more than enough land to rent. "
"Yuxi said:" not with the LV family than, after the same as others, five or five points
Chen Guanshi is honest, and he is still very protective of Yuxi's interests: "girl, then we will have less income." If we accept the rent according to Yuxi's method, we will reduce the income by 10%! In fact, according to the LV family's method, the tenants will not have a problem.
Yuxi looked at the rice fields and said, "I don't want this money." When she lived in Chuang Tzu in her last life, she saw that the life of the tenants was very poor, but she was powerless at that time. Now it's her property. She has the right to make decisions, so she wants to make these people live better. Of course, it has to be within a reasonable range. If there are too many benefactors, they are not benefactors, but they think she is young and easy to fool. Everything has to be controlled well.
Chen Guanshi saw that Yuxi had made a decision, and he did not have any more objections.
The party soon arrived under the date tree. When buying this field, Yuxi said there was a big jujube tree and chestnut tree. Looking at the sparse jujube tree, Yuxi asked, "how many jujubes are there in all?" At that time, when she bought it, she thought there must be water. There were hundreds of jujube trees that had become jujube trees, which were all exaggerated.
Although Chen Guanshi has not been here for a long time, he is very familiar with it. After listening to Yuxi's words, he doesn't want to go back and say, "there are 65 jujube trees in total."
Yuxi knew that the LV family had reported a false number, which was too much, and even more than five times. The LV family really wanted money and didn't want face: "where is the chestnut tree?"
Chen said, "there are 146 chestnut trees. Girl, in addition to chestnut and jujube trees, there are many fir trees on the mountain. They all grow well and can sell for a lot of money in a few years. " Director Chen thinks it's a good deal for you to buy this mountain forest.
Yuxi does not hope for this, even if there is a fir estimate is not much, casually asked: "how many fir?"
"Well, there is a large area. I have roughly estimated that there are tens of thousands of them. All of them grow well and can be cut down in ten years at most," Chen said seriously
Yuxi had some accidents, but fir didn't make a false report, but it didn't lose much.
The sun was high in the air, and Yuxi was so hot that he was all wet. "Girl, it's too hot. Let's go back!" said Corydalis carefully She was worried that the girl would have heatstroke if she didn't go back.
Yuxi nodded, "then go back!" There is miasma in the mountain and no one dares to go up.
A group of people walked at the foot of the mountain and looked at many wastelands around. Yuxi asked again, "why don't these wastelands be used?" It can grow peanut and other crops.
Shopkeeper Chen said: "there are many wild things at the foot of the mountain. I'm afraid that I will be ruined by those animals when I plant things."
Yuxi knew that wild boars would spoil food: "if there is any business such as wild boars, please kill them at that time. These wastelands still need to be planted. It's wasteful not to plant them. "
Chen Guanshi hurriedly nodded: "the old slave will arrange it."
After a long turn, Yuxi knew something about it. Back in Zhuangzi, I saw Fang's mother and Meng's supervisor waiting for her in the yard.
Yuxi specially asked Fang's mother to come with Meng's supervisor to negotiate with Chen about planting crops.
Buns and groceries need a lot of things. They used to buy them. Since I bought this field, if there is any in the shop, people will come to take it directly. For example, the grocery store needs melon seeds, peanuts, steamed stuffed bun, grains, vegetables and so on. However, both Mrs. Fang and Mr. Meng think that if the grange is fully utilized, it will save more cost.
Yuxi changed his clothes and said to them, "I'll discuss after lunch." It's noon now. She eats at this point.
The lunch was very rich, including stewed chicken with mushrooms, braised fish, pork ribs with glutinous rice, steamed eggs, and several farm dishes.
Yuxi used to live in the Chuang Tzu of the Jiang family for more than a year without any scruples. He ate two bowls of rice and many dishes.
After lunch, Fang and Meng discussed with Chen about what kind of crops to grow.
Chen Guanshi is very careful. Instead of blindly agreeing to the requirements of Fang's mother and Meng Guanshi, he puts out the actual situation to show which crops can be planted, such as peanuts and sunflowers, but some crops can't be planted, such as sesame.
Yuxi only listened, and did not interrupt. The reason why Fang agreed to open a grocery store was that she knew that there were many kinds of fresh foods, such as bacon, sausage and pickles, which were circulated in the capital several years later. She would surely sell at a good price if she took the lead. When she came to Chuang Tzu this time, she was going to let her tenants raise more pigs to make bacon and sausages at the end of the year. However, hearing that Hongshan said that the old lady thought she had a good fortune, made Yuxi feel more alert. If she takes over from Chuang Tzu and eats fresh food, I'm afraid it will arouse suspicion. There are demons in the so-called abnormal things. Good luck is enviable, but too much luck will make people suspect.
She now has a bun shop and a grocery store, plus the farm, how can there be a thousand or two earnings a year? She can't spend so much in a year. There's no need to risk for a little money. It's not worth it. Thinking about it, Yuxi still gave up making sausage bacon.
The three discussed for most of the time before reaching an agreement. Yuxi has been listening, and does not interrupt. Her master is actually a witness.
After the negotiation among the three people, Yuxi said, "although all the three shops belong to me, the exchange of goods between you must be the same as the previous purchase, and you should pay according to the price."
Steward Chen doesn't understand. It's all the girl's property. What's the money for taking things from Chuang Tzu. It's very troublesome to pay for it.
Yuxi has a very good impression of Chen Guanshi. He is a down-to-earth person. Yuxi didn't think it was too much trouble to explain the meaning of this to her: "although these three industries are all mine, if you don't divide the accounts clearly, then there will be a mess, and I can't know how much money your industry has earned." Financial affairs are not separated. It must be a muddle headed account at that time.
Director Chen still doesn't understand.
Yuxi said with a smile, "it doesn't matter if you don't understand. You can do what I say." A true man has the good of a true man.
Meng Xiaofeng was surprised to hear Yuxi's words. Unexpectedly, the girl thought so clearly: "I listen to the girl, and then the shop will settle the account with Chuang Tzu once a month."
Yuxi nodded: "the same is true for Baozipu. In the future, we will establish separate accounts, which I will see at the end of the year. " Yuxi's other mother is trusting, but since they are all doing things, they have to treat each other equally, regardless of intimacy.
Fang's mother's face suddenly froze. It's not that she is dissatisfied with Yuxi's requirements, but that she doesn't know how to account. It's just that she won't sweep Yuxi's face on this occasion.
Looking at the sky, Shen's mother came in and urged Yuxi to hurry back. Otherwise, she would be the first one punished by the old lady.
Yu Xi looked at Fang's mother and others and said, "you go out first. I have something to say to Chen Guan."
After all the people went out, Yu Xicai said to Chen Guanshi, "Chen Guanshi, my aunt chose you to take charge of Chuang Tzu for me, and I also trust you. As long as you do well, I won't treat you badly. But if you make a mess, don't blame me for my carelessness. " Yuxi has a good impression of Chen Guanshi, but the eldest daughter-in-law of Chen Guanshi is not easy to watch. Yuxi feels that he must knock.
"Don't worry, miss, I will manage Chuang Tzu well," Chen said He will work hard. Otherwise, it will be difficult for the two little sons to get married without this job.
Yuxi has no choice, honest people are good, but this reaction is too late and blunt, but some words are not good enough. That's enough. She's done so well today. Now, take it easy.
Out of the room, ready to go back, Yuxi looked at the three people and said, "what do you have in the future, discuss with each other and tell me when you have done so."
The three nodded in succession.
