According to the general rental conditions here, the harvest is 37 cents, but since most of the landowners who rely on the land for food are trying their best to squeeze these toiling farmers at the bottom of the society, generally in addition to the grain rent, the villagers will be charged 200 yuan per mu of land separately. money rent.

But don’t underestimate these two hundred yuan. After harvesting one mu of land, you will earn two taels of silver per mu of land on average. Everyone in your family relies on this small amount of money to live, and they have to save money for their children to marry and build houses. The rent of two hundred cents per acre of land is definitely a kind of oppression.

Now Wu Qingyuan only collects grain rent, not to mention, he also promises to guarantee that he will subsidize the harvest of one mu of land if he earns less than three or two silvers. This is a good thing in the sky. The account can be calculated.

In addition, Wu Qingyuan also wrote a deed to the government to witness. All the villagers had no doubts or worries. They hurriedly lined up in front of Lin Amo to rent the land, for fear that they would all be rented out later, because there were only one hundred and sixty. Eight acres of wasteland are gone after renting.

There are more than 200 households in Liushu Village, and this field is definitely not enough. In the end, Wu Qingyuan only rented to some of them with good reputation, and let everyone rent the rest later.

These fields are only temporary, and Liushu Village is only a village for the first experiment. When the business is stabilized, he will continue to buy fields to expand his industry, and he will not become a fat man in one bite, especially in business, he needs to take it slow.

After a lot of excitement, the villagers who rented the fields were smiling. The villagers who didn't rent the fields were a little disappointed, but Wu Qingyuan said that he needed to hire part-time workers to cultivate the 50 acres of land, and everyone could come and help to earn a share. income.

In short, the lease of land finally came to a successful conclusion.

But there are two sides to everything. Some people laugh and some cry. Most of the villagers have rented Wu Qingyuan's fields this year, so naturally they will not renew the lease of Qian's family. No one is renting, this loss is not small!

"Useless things, what's going on this year? Why haven't so many fields been rented out?"

Knowing that his field was vacant, Qian Yuanwai, who was enjoying the service of his concubine at home, immediately put on his clothes and called the dogleg who was doing errands for him in front of him for questioning.

Although the Qian family is a well-known big landlord in Shiqiao Town, the family has many farms and shops, but more than 100 mu of farmland is not a small amount. A few hundred taels less.

"Don't be surprised, sir, there is nothing I can do about it. These unrented fields belong to Liushu Village. I have already inquired about it. It is the Wu family of Liushu Village. His family bought a lot of fields this year. Tian rented it to the villagers at a very cheap price, and only received 30% of the grain without rent, and also promised that the villagers would subsidize if the villagers could not earn 30 taels per mu of land, so the villagers stopped renting our fields..."

Dog-legged Wang Dafu bowed his head and explained with a sad look on his face.

"What? Not charging rent and promising to repay?!"

With a fat waist and a round belly, Qian Yuan suddenly sat up straight, and the chair below his buttocks made a trembling sound.

"Yes, it's just backwards, this Wu family is doing it against us, sir!"

Wang Dafu was afraid of being punished for his own errands, so he took the black pot out without hesitation. "Master, do you still remember that our carbon kiln business made two hundred taels less than in previous years?"

"Remember, just because of these two hundred taels of silver, that tigress almost ripped off Master's ear!"

When he mentioned the carbon kiln business, Mr. Qian immediately covered his ears and complained angrily.

The carbon kiln is such a profitable business. Naturally, his family also has an industry, and the money earned every year accounts for a large part of his family's total income. Due to Wu Qingyuan's intervention in the Chinese New Year last year, several employees in the town involved in the carbon kiln business were all affected. Some influences, among which Qian Yuanwai lost the most, because Shiqiao Town is the gathering place of his main industry.

Because of this, Qian Yuanwai was taught a lesson by the tigress of the family for these hundred taels of silver. Naturally, Wang Dafu, the dog leg, was also given a lesson because of his poor handling. He also deducted many months of money. far away.

Who knows that he hasn't found a chance to clean him up, and now he has pried their corner on the matter of the tenant field, causing himself to be talked and scolded by the master again, robbing people for money is like killing his parents, Wang Dafu's heart is for Wu Qing at this moment. I hate it so much.

"Master, it's him, it's the Wu family, I've made inquiries about everything, that Wu opened three carbon kilns last year, and he earned all the money we lost, and now he's here to rob our tenant farmers, master , this kid is deliberately against you!"

Wang Dafu spared no effort to speak ill, and he made up his mind to bring the anger outside Qian Yuan to him, otherwise the master would blame him for not being able to do things well, and he would lose his job.

He did a lot of instigating misunderstandings and speaking ill of people. Qian Yuanwai always trusted him. After listening to this, he immediately slapped the table and became angry.

"Where is the stinky boy who dares to steal my business from the master, he is really impatient! Damn! Wang Dafu, you say, what should I do about this?"

The transfer of firepower was successful, Wang Dafu showed a smile on his face, and he was relieved, and then he walked up to help out with bad ideas.

"Master, we can't teach a lesson about this matter, otherwise people will say that you are bullying the good people, you don't want to be beaten up by someone, it's too cheap for that kid..."

"If you have any ideas, say it quickly, don't talk nonsense!" Qian Yuanwai was the most unreasonable, and interrupted impatiently to poking at the topic.

"Yes, yes, sir, I think it's time to prepare to burn charcoal again. Why don't we just say hello to a few lumber bosses in the town and ask them to sell a batch of waste, just like the Chen family did last time. The wood is given to the Wu family, but if the charcoal cannot be burned, the Wu family will be bankrupt without paying for it?"

"Well, this is feasible, or you have a lot of ideas, but what about the empty fields in Willow Village?"

Qian Yuan nodded in agreement.

"This....."

When I mentioned this Wang Dafu, I was also embarrassed. I thought about it and saw that Mr. Qian was not very good-looking. He hesitated for a while before hesitating for a while, and then whispered, "Master, let's not charge rent this year. now..."

"What? Don't charge rent?!" Qian Yuan sat up again. He was famous for his money in Shiqiao Township. He has always only increased rent but not exempted rent!

As his dog-legged Wang Dafu, of course he knows this principle, but if the rent is not reduced, with the comparison of the Wu family, the remaining villagers will probably plant a few mu less land and go out to help, and they will definitely not be willing to rent the Qian family's fields. Well, when all the fields really can't be rented out, Qian Yuanwai must blame him.

The dog's legs are not easy to take, and it is better to be scolded now when he loses his job in the future, Wang Dafu continued to bite the bullet and said.

"Master, if we don't charge rent, we still have 30% of the grain. It's not a loss, but we only earn a little less. But if we don't reduce the rent and the villagers don't rent our fields, those fields will be abandoned this year, and the losses will definitely be greater. Big, ma'am, I'm afraid..."

"Enough is enough, reduce it, you can do it quickly, if the matter doesn't go well, Madam will grab my ear, sir, and I will chop your ear to drink, and hurriedly go to say hello to the lumber boss in the town, If anyone dares to let the Wu family make money this year, I will ask him to beg for food in Shiqiao Town!”

As soon as the tigress mother-in-law at home was taken out, Qian Yuanwei was stunned and nodded impatiently.

"Yes, sir, don't worry, the little one will definitely get things done..."

Successfully pushed the responsibility out, Wang Dafu let out a sigh of relief, bowed his head and patted two words of flattery and quickly went down to do things.

............

Mr. Qian's anger Wu Qingyuan doesn't know for the time being. Even if he knows, he is not afraid. In business, he will inevitably encounter opponents. What kind of money can he make if he is afraid? Soldiers come to block water and soil cover, there is always a solution.

After the field work is done, the next step is to open a shop in the town. In addition to the three carriages at home, he also bought a lot of other goods on the road, all of which were handed over to the guards to help bring them back. It is estimated that the distance is at most It will arrive in half a month.

So many goods can't be kept on hand all the time, and the store must be opened for sales as soon as possible.

The preparations in the early days of starting a business were very busy. The shops in the town were easy to buy, but there were too few that fit his heart. After running around the town for several days, Wu Qingyuan bought two adjacent small shops.

He plans to open up the two small shops and renovate them into a big one. The left side will sell all kinds of goods brought back by the monopoly runners, as well as the grain sales in the later period, while the right side will be decorated separately for Amer to start his own small business.

Whether it's a special noodle restaurant, a small restaurant, or something else, Amer can do whatever he likes. The teenager likes to be busy, and he will definitely like to do his own thing.

In fact, after thinking about so much, whether it was to hope that Amer would not be bored with his own small business, or to want Amer to walk side by side with himself, in the end, after so many reasons, he just wanted to keep Amer by his side. Every day he looked at the cheerfully smiling young man beside him, and he was also happy and happy. Amer was the only reason for him to stay here.

In fact, just as he thought, Amer jumped for joy when he knew that he also had a general store where he could do what he liked.

He couldn't stay at home originally. His favorite thing since he was a child was to run outside and find various ways to make money and save money. Now Wu Qingyuan lets him do what he likes in the shop, so that he can also earn money by himself. Silver, he just hit his sensitive/sensitive point, and he was about to fly with joy.

After getting married, although the two were busy, they stayed together in the morning and evening. The smiles on Amer's face became more and more, and Wu Qingyuan's heart became softer and softer.
