Chapter 14: The legendary thief is coming to work at home?
A spring rain made this almost dead village busy.
The spring rain has been falling for two consecutive days, and the originally dry stream has become full, and white waves have appeared again.
The dusty days are gone, the ground is wet, and when you step on it, you will make a powerful sound of "gurgling".
"Guji Guji" Yun Zhao ran from under the eaves to behind the rain jar.
"Guji Guji" Yun Zhao ran to the flower bed from behind the rain jar.
Two big white geese poked their heads out of the small earthen house in confusion. After not finding anything wrong, they retracted their heads and inserted them under their wings to keep warm.
Yun Zhao jumped off the flower bed, ran for two steps and jumped out of the inner house gate.
Yun's grain warehouse is in the atrium. Today is the time to distribute seeds and grains. Yun Zhao was very curious about the life of the ancient landlords, so he came here quietly at the risk of being attacked by the big white goose.
If ordinary people have less land, they cannot choose the best seeds. The quality of the seeds is not good, and the Yun family has a lot of land, so they can screen seeds in a wider field, and the selected seeds are much better than other people's homes.
Two kilograms of grain exchanged for one kilogram of seeds is a rule that has been established for a long time. The government does not allow landlords to sell seeds very expensively. At the same time, there are also restrictions in the village conventions.
Last year, not many people came to Yun's family to exchange for grain planting. The main reason was that ten kilograms of seeds per acre of underground. During the severe drought, the seeds may not be able to be recovered during harvesting in summer.
This year is different. There is plenty of rain in spring, and everyone is willing to spend a lot of money in the fields.
When planting in spring, Mr. Xu did not teach and there were no people in the school. Mr. Xu took the yellow dog to Yushan, which was said to be in spring.
Yun Zhao really wanted to follow him, but the gentleman didn't allow it.
So, I had to sit next to my mother with a blank expression and watch the butler Yunfu exchange seeds and grain for the villagers.
The moment a farmer sees the seeds, the wrinkles on his face will bloom like chrysanthemums, and this joy comes from the bottom of his heart.
There is no forced buying and selling, nor is there any exploitation. It is very reasonable to exchange two pounds of grain for one pound of growing grain.
Although they were in the large yard of the landlord's family, they were not afraid of the landlord's servants, and they were even more familiar with the landlord's house as if they were a family.
"Don't pick one by one. After all, you have chosen the seeds of Yun's family. If you have any choice, even if it is not good, it is still the one you choose."
Yunfu, who likes to smoke lightly, hasn't smoked for a long time today and is in a bad mood. He wants to run out and enjoy it. When he sees the eldest lady, the eldest young master stares at him with wide eyes and has to endure it, hoping that these villagers will finish their work soon.
“There are many people growing wheat this year.”
Seeing that the seeds were almost distributed, Yun Niang said to Yun Fudao.
Yun Fu smiled so hard that he couldn't stop and rubbed his hands and said, "Yes, the year is good, so many people plant wheat. Everyone knows that noodles are better than millet."
"What a pity, the rice seeds in the past two years have gone away, otherwise I could plant a crop of rice this year."
When his mother talked about rice, Yun Zhao couldn't help but drool. I don't know how this problem happened. A long time ago, he hated eating rice the most and always felt that it was not enough to eat that thing.
Now, I feel drooling when I hear the rice.
Yun Niang carefully wiped her son's saliva and said angrily: "As long as you hear about food, you will drool. It's so boring."
Yun Zhao said depressedly: "I don't know what's going on, maybe it's because I haven't had a few full meals recently."
Yun Niang sneered: "Your daily meals are full of food."
Yun Zhao sighed and said, "Yun Juan, Yun Shu is so edible. Sometimes Yunshu comes to help me eat. Think about it, it is strange that I can eat with three of them."
When Yun Niang saw the last villager who changed seeds and grain left, she said hatefully: "You want to buy people's hearts. If you are full, you still buy people's hearts. If you are full, you will only feel that you deserve to give them food."
Yun Fu smiled and said, "Do not be a bad person to be a bad person, you will suffer in the end."
Yun Zhao smiled and knew that he would need time and opportunity to completely win over these scattered people's hearts.
Yun Fu locked the grain warehouse and handed the key to Yun Niang, then said, "It's raining a little more, and it will take a few days to wait until the world is dry. The old slave thought that the farm tools at home should be tidyed up, and some of them were useless for three years. The plowshares should be repaired and the plow rack should be well taken care of."
Yun Niang said, "Who are you looking for? There is no suitable blacksmith in the Yun family village."
Yun Fu said: "Liu Zongmin from Hejiawa asked about the old slave a few days ago, and wanted to take over our work.
This person is a good blacksmith in Lantian County."
Yun Niang laughed and pointed at Yun Fu and said, "Do you think I haven't heard of this person's past? I don't want to recruit a prisoner at home."
Yun Fu bowed awkwardly and said, "This person has some kinship with the old slave."
After hearing Yun Fu say this, Yun Niang waved her hand and said, "Since that's the case, you will naturally get what you want. Anyway, you have to take good care of the people. You can make a blacksmith in Yunshi Zhuangzi, but you can't cause trouble for us. If something is broken, you Yunfu will be responsible for it!"
Yun Fu smiled and said, "My mother is here, can he go against the sky? Don't worry, the old lady, I will watch it well."
Yun Niang curled her lips and despised Yun Fu's selfishness, and dragged Yun Zhao away from the atrium.
The rain was still falling, but Yun Zhao's heart seemed to be on fire. The bandits in the history books were about to appear in front of him. At this moment, he was extremely eager for the rain to stop early.
It would be inappropriate if Yun Zhao had two generations of Lantian people. If he didn't know about this great thief from Lantian County.
When the rain came out, the mist surrounding the hillside of Yushan disappeared. Through the sparse raindrops, the huge Yushan was exposed in broad daylight.
Somehow, Yun Zhao was willing to associate the Yushan in front of him with the great thief who was about to meet.
They are all just majestic, just mysterious, and just people want to spy on them.
Yun Yang likes to make ironwork very much. He heard that the blacksmith with the best craftsman in Lantian County was coming to Yunshizhuang to make ironwork, and he was in an extraordinary mood.
It is true that the blacksmith made a blacksmith in Yunshi Village, but he would leave the stove when he left, which is very important for Yun Yang.
"It's not profitable at all!"
Yun Zhao sat on a stone bench under the eaves of the corridor and looked at Yun Yangdao who was rubbing the hemp rope.
"It's very profitable to make a blacksmith. I asked. You can charge ten cents by using a kitchen knife. That's not all that iron material, and it costs at least one hundred cents to add iron material."
Yun Yang refuted Yun Zhao without raising his head.
"You haven't calculated your own labor and money with the carbide! After counting, a kitchen knife is not expensive at all, and you can't make much money."
Yun Yang pulled the girl back, and the little girl was lying out, trying to drink water from the roof with her mouth.
"The strength is not worth it, I will come back after a night's sleep. Chai Carbon is not worth it. The most important thing in our Yunjiazhuang is Chai Carbon, which is just a little effort."
"My mother is going to ask you all to go to the house to help farm, and the wages should be quite high."
Yun Yang sorted out the hemp rope that had been rubbed, piled it aside, fed some water to the girl, and said with a smile: "The eldest lady is generous in this regard. She gives three kilograms of grain a day, which is all good food. If it is millet, it can reach four kilograms. If it is busy for a month, you can earn two months of food. It is a good deal.
Ah, do you know how much the outside grain prices have risen now?"
When Yun Zhao heard Yun Yang call him Ah Tsui, a low roar in his throat. He wanted to get angry, but when he thought of his mother's face, he said helplessly: "A duct of rice has increased to two taels and four cents of silver."
Yun Yang smiled and pointed at Yun Zhao's round head and said, "It turns out that he is the eldest young master of the landlord family, and he doesn't know about this at all.
Let me tell you, the food price you mentioned was during the Tianqi period. Last August, the emperor died, and his younger brother became the new emperor. The new year name is Chongzhen. This year it has been the second year of Chongzhen.
If you buy a tumble of rice for two or four cents, you can’t even buy a tumble of wheat when you want it.
I'm just waiting for a bumper harvest of summer grain this year, so I can buy a good price to make a new set of clothes for my mother and the girl."
Yun Zhao smiled and patted Yun Yang's back and said, "Since you are making money by farming, why do you still want to go to a blacksmith?"
