Chapter 106: Acceptance
Qiao Xiaoru waved her hand and said, "Didn't I say it just now?" You've done your work, and there's something else to do! ”
Liu Sanxi blurted out and asked with a smile: "I don't know how much the owner pays to hire people to tidy up that wasteland?" ”
Everyone also looked at Qiao Xiaoru with a "sigh". There is a posture of whether there is more or less than us.
"It's none of your business!" Qiao Xiaoru stared at Liu Sanxi, and this glance was a little meaningful.
She's the owner, isn't she? How she wants to hire people and how much she is paid is her business, and it is not the turn of the tenants to ask, let alone their turn to be satisfied or dissatisfied.
Liu Sanxi and everyone were stunned, and someone wanted to say something, but suddenly thought that the little daughter-in-law in front of him was his own owner, so he had to shut up again.
Liu Sanxi also reacted, and said with a smile: "Yes, yes, what the owner said is that we shouldn't ask about this matter!" Well, we are familiar with a few in Luan Village, and the work is real, why don't we invite someone to write a note later? ”
"Well, just ask someone who can take charge of things!" Qiao Xiaoru nodded, not caring about the little unpleasantness just now.
Liu Sanxi called a fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy to Luan Village to call someone.
Qiao Xiaoru and the others were waiting here.
This place is really a chicken rib as the property of Squire Liu's family, so the Liu family did not build a house here, and every year a small housekeeper came to collect rent, and only stayed at Liu Sanxi's house for half a ring and left.
If Qiao Xiaoru wants to plant all the land here with persimmon trees in the future, and maybe continue to reclaim the surrounding land, then it is necessary to build a house here.
Moreover, a large yard was to be built in a high ventilation place for processing and drying persimmons. The residences of these tenants should also be planned and managed in a unified manner. In the future, we will definitely have to recruit more tenants or simply buy people......
These Qiao Xiaoru can only plan silently in his heart for the time being, and first put all the land out.
At present, if you want to build a house, you can only come to a simple one, but the courtyard wall can be solid and can be done at one time.
After thinking about the remaining more than 400 taels of silver, it should be enough to make the first start-up capital, right?
In such a time, Qiao Xiaoru was not idle, chatting with the tenants casually, inquiring about the fields, mountains and forests, farm work and other household routines of Luan Village.
She knows too little about this era, and it is always impossible to take every opportunity to learn more.
Most of the time, Liu Sanxi was answering her words, and Qiao Xiaoru didn't care.
As for the stupid husband, he thought it was boring here, so he went out for a walk early. Qiao Xiaoru called an honest boy of eight or nine years old to accompany the foolish husband.
About half an hour later, the young man invited someone from Luan Village. It is a middle-aged farmer who calls Liang Laosan alone.
Thirty-five or sixteen years old, with a strong body, medium build, bronzed skin, thick eyebrows and big eyes, although his facial features are mediocre, he looks like a stable one, and when he saw Qiao Xiaoru, he greeted with a smile: "Sister-in-law of the Lu family!" ”
Qiao Xiaoru smiled politely and responded, and she was a little satisfied in her heart: This Liu Sanxi doesn't look at the little twists and turns in his stomach, he wants to sneakily think about it from time to time, this is quite reliable!
That's enough! Qiao Xiaoru didn't expect him to be his tenant, so he took it for granted that he was dedicated to himself.
Qiao Xiaoru invited the gentleman who wrote the note to sit down and talked to Liang Laosan about the land preparation first. In addition to the peach forest and bamboo forest, about 1670 acres of wasteland, Qiao Xiaoru has seen it herself, and there are no big trees in the hug, most of them are shrubs, weeds, and some sparse small trees that have grown for several years.
In fact, it is not difficult to deal with it, you only need to make a fire boundary line about four or five meters wide on each of the four borders, and set it on fire, which is enough to burn the weeds and shrubs almost in this late autumn and early winter.
After that, it's much easier! As long as the miscellaneous trees and unburned shrubs are cut down, except for those that can be used as firewood to carry home, the other branches and branches are gathered to make piles and then fires to ensure that they can be burned cleanly.
The only trouble is to dig out the roots of those shrubs and miscellaneous trees and dispose of them.
But then again, if it weren't for the roots of the shrubs and miscellaneous trees, where would Qiao Xiaoru need to hire someone to do this work?
The price given by Qiao Xiaoru was ten taels of silver.
Hearing this price, Liu Sanxi and the others felt a lot more comfortable, and in comparison, they still took advantage of themselves.
This price is very fair, and Liang Laosan only nodded after a little contemplation.
Qiao Xiaoru also asked to do it before the tenth day of the first month of next month, and she didn't care how many people Liang Laosan hired and how to distribute his wages.
This made Liang even happier because it meant that he could earn more. patted his chest and said that he would definitely be able to complete it on time.
Well, everybody knows that!
Liu Sanxi couldn't help but secretly glance at Qiao Xiaoru: The little owner is young and doesn't want to be so good at doing things, but fortunately he put away his thoughts, otherwise the end will definitely not be better......
Originally, he thought that Qiao Xiaoru definitely didn't know how to read, and he wanted to try to make the gentleman who wrote the note move a little bit on the note, but now he didn't dare anymore.
After writing the note, each party held a copy, and paid the pen fee, Qiao Xiaoru and the foolish husband prepared to go home.
This great thing has finally been done!
Well, in two days, we should ask someone to set aside a piece of land here to build the yard and simple house first, taking advantage of the current farming, and also taking advantage of the fact that the big house and the second room have not received the news, and it will be annoying enough to deal with the two best when you can save the time.
Liu Sanxi hesitated for a moment, and finally decided to say more.
When Qiao Xiaoru and Silly Fujun were about to leave, Liu Sanxi shouted, "Owner!" A few steps forward and said with a smile: "Well, that, in previous years, when plowing the fields in the spring, Squire Liu's family sent someone to send the oxen over, and the oxen were taken away after the plow!" If the owner can trust us, he might as well send the cattle over, we can help herd the cattle, and by the way, we can also make more fat! ”
Liu Sanxi just felt that if Squire Liu's little land was bought by a really big family, it would definitely not be the owner who came in person, and it would definitely be just a very stylish steward.
And the little proprietor in front of him not only came in person, but he didn't look much better than his own family, and his family may not be much richer. Even if there are cows, most of them are only one, right?
When it comes to the beginning of spring, an ox plows 56 acres of fields, so when will it be plowed?
You must know that usually a cow can only plow four acres a day at most, and if there are more, the cow will be tired, and it is likely that the follow-up will be less plowed!
In this way, spring plowing will definitely be delayed.
Liu Sanxi didn't know that his words made Qiao Xiaoru almost slap on the head: she forgot about this stubble!
