Chapter 2 Rich family

Chai Jin ordered people to bring Wu Song a mattress and a quilt of sheepskin for him. It is important for sick people to raise them, and only if they are well raised can they recover quickly.

Wu Song felt a little embarrassed. He often bullied the Zhuangkes some time ago. Not only did he blame him, but he also cared so much about himself.

Wu Song said gratefully: "Thank you brother."

After arranging Wu Song, Chai Jin said, "Brother Erlang, brother has too much work, so I won't accompany you to recuperate. There are ten taels of silver here. If you want to eat, just go to the shop in the shop, but there is a whole other way. Don't drink alcohol in this situation. Doctor Sun also said just now that you should avoid drinking when taking medicine. Also, if you have any bad hospitality, go find me and don't be as knowledgeable as the shopkeepers."

Wu Song was moved and almost burst into tears. He got up from the kang and said to Chai Jin: "Thank you for your care. Wu Song was so angry a few days ago, so he shouldn't bully Zhuangke."

Ding, the host increases the worship value by fifty points.

Chai Jin said: "Brother Erlang, where is it? I'm going to do it with peace of mind."

What did Chai Jin do? He went to see his family.

It was the end of the Northern Song Dynasty. People were living in poverty and bandits were everywhere. Nine years before the demise of the Northern Song Dynasty. Chai Jin had to repair the sky and support the building with his own hands, so it is very important to find out the family's background now.

In the martial arts performance venue, fifty Zhuang Dings were exercising. These Zhuang Dings were all dressed up, not old, twenty or thirty or down. Some made sandbags, some held stone locks, some practiced large swords, and some played spears.

Chai Jin shook his head when he saw it. It was just this level that the people were roaming in the countryside. If there was something wrong, this group of people was completely a mob and was not useful.

A few months ago, coach Hong and Lin Chong lost the battle and resigned. The guards in Chai Jinzhuang were two strong men from the village, one was Chai Yong and the other was Chai Meng, both of whom were Chai Jin's confidants.

When Chai Yong and Chai Meng saw Chai coming in, they immediately shouted: "Get together."

Fifty people stood up quickly and lined up.

"We are guilty, please punish the owner of the house." Chai Yong said.

Chai Jin said: "This owner almost fell to death. If you don't wait for the protection, you should indeed be punished. Zhuang Ding, who shot the wild boar the day before yesterday, left the list."

Six farms stood up. When the big wild boar rushed over the day before yesterday, the six people shot the wild boar with arrows. The wild boar was so thick that it could not resist it.

"You six, the savior is rewarded with one tael of silver for each person." Chai Jin waved his hand and his subordinates handed over six taels of silver for each person. Zhuang Ding, who received the reward, was very happy. In the late Northern Song Dynasty, people were suffering from the people's livelihood, and one tael of silver was enough for poor families to eat steamed buns and pickles for a year, so the reward was not small.

"Thank you the owner of the manor." Six people said.

"This is what you deserve. You didn't escape at the critical moment and even shot a wild boar. You should be rewarded." Chai Jin said.

After rewarding Zhuang Ding, Chai Jin said again: "Chai Yong, Chai Meng."

"Are, now." said the two.

"After I was injured in the horse, you and the two of you drove away the wild boar and took me back for timely assistance, and each person was rewarded with three taels of silver." Chai Jin said.

"I am really guilty of protecting the owner of the manor because I am not well protected," said Chai Yong.

"You can't blame you for being ordinary martial arts, and it's not easy for you to protect me." Chai Jin said.

"Thank you, the owner of the manor." The two of them also collected the money.

The other Zhuang Ding looked at Chai Jin, wondering what punishment would be.

Chai Jin pointed at the other Zhuang Ding angrily and said, "The punishment is unknown and there is no way to establish authority. You people are panicked when they see the wild boars fiercely, and each of them puts five bamboo shoots to stir-fry meat. Are you convinced?"

These village heads are full-time guards. When the owner of the farm is in danger, they are not able to rescue them, so it is considered light to be hit by five strokes.

"We'll be convinced." Everyone said.

"Chai Yong, Chai Meng, you two personally execute it, I supervise it."

"yes."

The punishment of the village was relieved. The so-called fried pork with bamboo shoots is to make bamboo sticks. The maid who made mistakes usually made bamboo sticks, which is a very light punishment. If you can't bear the injury, it will hurt you.

More than 40 Zhuang Dings were bare-armed, and each of them suffered five hard times. Each of them hurt so hard that they were covered with blood-red marks.

After the reward and punishment, Chai Jin said: "Tonight, I will have extra meals. I killed two pigs in the kitchen. I specially arranged to leave you dozens of kilograms of meat."

"Thank you, the owner."

Chai Jin said: "No need to thank me, train well."

Combining rewards and punishments, Chai Jin's worship points have increased by dozens. Chai Jin is also used to the existence of this system and will not pay attention to him all the time.

The training outline needs to be modified, but you have to take everything slowly. The first thing is to be familiar with your old background first.

Chai Jin called Chai Yong, followed him to listen, and then wandered around the village.

Chai Jin was a rich man from Cangzhou and a royal family in the previous dynasty. Although he was in a downturn, the lean camel was larger than a horse. Although Chaijiazhuang was called Zhuang, it was actually two large villages, Dongcun and Xicun. Dongcun was the village where Chai Jin lived, mainly dozens of families of the Chai family, and hundreds of tenants. Xicun was all tenants of the Chai family, with more than 800 households. Together, a total of 1,530 tenants and a total population of 8,256 people. There are 18,000 acres of good land and 30,000 acres of land. There are countless mountains and forests. The actual controlled area of ​​Chai Jin family is equivalent to the area of ​​a small town.

As a rich man, Chai Jin's family's grain storage was quite amazing, and the granary alone covered an area of ​​more than ten acres. Chai Jin came to the granary. The huge yard was a total of ten warehouses, a warehouse with blue bricks and red tiles, each covering an area of ​​more than 300 square meters, and it could be more than four meters high. The people guarding the warehouse were four stewards and a warehouse manager responsible for the transaction of books. The warehouse manager was called Liang Hong, who was also a veteran. He had been to the Chai family for decades and could write and calculate, but he rarely missed the transactions.

"Young Master, you are here." Liang Hong said.

"Well, here we come. Let's take a look at our family's grain." Chai Jin said.

The grain warehouse is still quite reasonable. There is a goldfish pond in the yard with a water depth of about one meter and dozens of goldfish are kept. This is a fire water pond, not for raising fish. There are two wells next to it. The warehouse is a few dozen meters apart, which can fully meet the fire prevention needs. More than a dozen raccoon cats are wandering in the warehouse room. This kind of raccoon cat is quite wild and loves to catch mice, effectively preventing mice.

Open the thick warehouse door, full of sorghum smell.

"This is a sorghum warehouse, which contains five million kilograms of sorghum from the previous year." Liang Hong introduced.

It can be said that it is piled up like a mountain, and one by one, Ma Bao Lei is very tall. Chai Jin grabbed a handful, ate it in his mouth, and said, "Although it is not moldy, it is no longer good."

"Yes, according to previous years' practice, the grain will be sold for another year."

Four of the ten warehouses were empty, with a total of 30 million kilograms of grain in stock. Chai Jin's eyes shone, saying that the family's wealth was too abstract. Only when he truly saw these grains did he realize the wealth of the Chai family. Moreover, these 30 million kilograms were stored by the Chai family. After harvesting each year, the summer and autumn grains were sold for millions of kilograms.

"This food is really a lot." Chai Jin exclaimed.

Lao Liang said: "The years have been bad. Either drought or water, or grain production is severely reduced, and our land rent is also collected less. The principle of storing grain is enough for one person to eat for a year, plus nine years of stored grain as wealth. In our two houses, there are a total of more than 7,000 people in our two houses, a total of 500 kilograms of grain per year, and 3.5 million kilograms per year. In ten years, it will take more than 35 million kilograms to be reasonable."
