Su Qingma, Qingqingxing and others were shocked when they watched the mighty water-carrying army approaching them.

"Sister, is the whole village going out?" Qing Xing was stunned.

Village Chief Zou felt a little embarrassed.

He returned to the village, and before he could speak, the villagers following him spread the word. He said that a group of nobles came to the beach and asked for Danshui, a load of ten cents.

The young and old in the village immediately started to move.

They took the buckets and basins from home, fed the water and picked them up.

Zou Cheng was afraid that the nobles would blame him, so he asked the villagers to stop from afar.

"Negotiable, we have picked up the water. Do you want it?"

Su Qingma nodded blankly.

First, we really need water, and second, we can't bear to refuse when we look at the villagers wearing patches.

The villagers following Zou Cheng were immediately happy and carried water and walked over.

Dabao and Xiaobao and others stared at the group of people in a daze. Seeing that they had taken ten cents, they were happy to look like something. Dabao and others were stunned and moved.

"Negotiable, do you still want water?" The villagers asked carefully after taking the money.

"That's enough. We have nothing to free up your buckets, can you use it at home?"

"Yes, no need to worry about noble people, it's useful at home."

"Okay, then wait until we free up the bucket, and you guys will take it back."

"Okay, no hurry."

Siwa followed his grandfather, put a basket of dried fish and other items in a basket, and walked to Su Qingma: "Niangren, this is the seafood at home. Look, do you want it?"

"I have it here too, nobleman."

“My home has it, too.”

Seeing Su Qingniang and others looking at Siwa's dried fish, the others also surrounded them with dried fish and other things.

Just now, Siwa and a few kids were waiting for the copper plate to return to the village, and the village was sensational. When did the worthless clams on the mudflat be sold for hundreds of cents? They still had five cents per pound.

Do you want the nobles? They can dig overnight.

"Everyone comes one by one, and you can't see it if you surround me like this." Guo and others whispered.

The village chief drank the villagers back, and everyone lined up with peace of mind, waiting for the nobles to look through.

The little girl Cai Ya's mother held her hand tightly, hugged the basket in her arms, and her eyes were full of expectations.

These nobles looked very rich, so they gave Cai Ya a hundred and twenty cents to sell clams. She and Cai Ya's father carried a load of fishing fishing in Haizhou City at night, and they couldn't sell dozens of cents a day.

Cai Ya digs half a basket of clams and gets 120 cents.

Cai Ya's mother waited excitedly and took out all the best things in the house.

Su Qingma took Youbai Guo and others to pick them up carefully.

Lu Bocheng and others also followed and watched.

"Mom, what is this? There are also beards." Xiaoqi asked with a piece of dried squid in his hand.

"This is dried squid." Su Qingniang took a piece in her hand, put it under her nose and sniffed it.

The sun was well made, bright in color and large in size, and Su Qingma was satisfied.

"How can you put such a good fishing catch at home? You won't sell it in the city?" Seeing that every family brought a lot of it, Su Qingma was a little confused.

"The city cannot sell at a price. We walk here for a day from Haizhou. We go to Haizhou in the morning and come back in the middle of the night. We pull the fresh catches over, but they are not fresh. We make them dry. But the dry catches cannot sell at a price. Haizhou is near the sea and does not lack fishing catches. Naturally, the price cannot be sold at a price."

Village Chief Zou said. After saying that, he sighed endlessly.

"Didn't there be foreign businessmen to collect it?"

"In the early years, foreign businessmen came to collect, but when foreign businessmen came in, the tax revenue was high. When we transported them to the city, we would be stripped of a layer by tax collectors. We asked for a high price, and foreign businessmen were not happy. If they could not make money, foreign businessmen would naturally not come."

Su Qingma nodded and glanced at Lu Bocheng.

Lu Bocheng asked, "Old man, my wife is still waiting to eat fresh ones. You just said that you have fishing boats and went out to sea today? I wonder if there will be fresh fishing catches today?"

Village Chief Zou smiled bitterly and said, "We make a living by fishing, so how can we not have fishing boats? Originally, every family had fishing boats, but later, whenever the servants came ashore, they would come to collect taxes when we got ashore. Before we got ashore, they were collected and had a lot of good fishing catches. Gradually, many people in the village left the village and went out to make a living. There were not many fishing boats left."

Lu Bocheng frowned: "Is there anyone else coming to collect fishing taxes every day?"

"It has been less in the past two years. In the past, they came almost every day, and every time the fishing boats docked, they emerged."

Someone then said: "It seems that there have been a few times this year. I heard that our Haizhou has changed its owner. If we don't come in the future, then our lives will be better."

Seeing Lu Bocheng frowned, Su Qingma looked at Village Chief Zou: "Didn't the fishing tax be collected when you go to the city to trade? Why did you come to the beach to collect it?"

"That is, we collect one by the sea, and we pick it into the city and another. We fight in the wind and rain in the sea, risking our lives and not making money. Who is willing to risk going out to sea?"

"And sometimes, if we can't collect good things, we plan to keep what we eat at home, and they come to collect taxes. We don't trade. And we don't pay taxes every year."

The villagers present, seeing that the nobles were easy to talk to, all expressed their dissatisfaction.

The fish caught was sold at home and couldn't be sold for money, so I had to post it.

But they lived by the sea and were fishermen for generations. The land on the seaside was barren, unable to collect things, fishing could not make money, and there was no food, so their lives were getting poorer and poorer.

Dabao and Xiaobao felt sympathy after hearing this.

"Mom, I see that their things are pretty good. Let's buy more and send some to grandfather and grandma and others."

Su Qingma looked at her two sons and nodded: "Okay."

The villagers became more and more happy when they heard this.

Caiya's mother was holding a tael of silver in her hand and was very excited.

She was a little unbelievable that such a good thing was that she didn't bring much fishing catch at home. Now she looked at the money in her hand and thought about how much the dried fish and sea vegetables in her home could be sold.

Cai Ya was sore that her mother was pinching her and looked up to remind her, but when she saw her mother trembling excitedly while pinching silver, she pursed her lips.

She was so happy that her family finally had money.

The village chief also sold two taels of silver at his house and was very excited, "There are nobles in each family. I don't know if the nobles want it."

Su Qingma nodded: "If you still have such quality, you must."

Village Chief Zou was so happy that his words couldn't be said smoothly: "Don't worry, nobleman, I will definitely stare at them and bring the best goods for the nobleman."

"good."

Su Qingniang responded and directed Guo and others to pack up all the seafood.

"Are you setting up a tent? Let's give it a hand to the noble person." Without waiting for Su Qingma and others to agree, he led the villagers to start.

With the help of everyone in Leshan Village, the camp was quickly built.

The village chief and others were stunned.

I thought I was fighting in the wild and the conditions were difficult, so I was about to persuade the nobles to live in their village, but when I saw that the tent was better than the house they lived in, with beds, quilts, pillows, and even a tea table.

This is what people call life.

All the villagers were stunned.
