Farmer’s Little Girl

  Chapter 2563 Drought Resisting One (make up for yesterday)

Baijiro likes this kind of fighting with people the most. Mainly it doesn’t take too much of his brain, and he still has the upper hand. It can make people suffer secretly. Just thinking about it makes me excited, and I can eat more at night. Eat half a bowl.

Mingda was quite annoyed at first and couldn't experience this kind of fun, but after seeing Bai Erlang for two days in a row, he would rather refuse Bai Shan's invitation and go to the new city to stare at the steward and rent the shop, as long as she saw the smile on the steward’s face. Stiff, he was very happy, and even she couldn't help but feel happy, faintly touching that side.

  So the couple ran to the new city together, sitting in the shop every day, and the condescending caretaker received the business travelers who had been hired because of the notice.

  There are two masters, and the steward is afraid to do things, because Mingda and Shirajiro set the floating range of the rent early in the morning, so that he wants to increase the rent and scare people away.

  So the business travelers who had been looking for a lot of trouble, turned around and directly signed a contract with the princess, paying rent to get the shop.

  Those managers were about to vomit blood when they received the news. This shop has been going back and forth for a few days, and the deal is about to be sold when they see it. Who knows that a princess Mingda will be killed halfway?

  They didn't dare to find Princess Mingda, they could only go to the princess's manager in a rage.

Although you have not stated clearly, but you have received so many gifts from everyone. At the beginning, both parties hinted that you rented the shop to us at a low price, and we sublet it to others. As a result, we bothered to bring business trips from outside, you Turned around but cut us off?

  There is no such reason anymore, can you still talk about the justice of the world?

The stakes between Jianghu Daoyi and the master and servant are not worth mentioning. The princess and the prince are sitting in the shop next door. He neither dared to promise them to return the business trip that had already signed the contract to them, nor did he dare to let them. They made too much noise...

  If the princess and the horse know what happened here, he won’t have to take this small life.

So he could only reluctantly return the things he had collected before, and even subsidized a little bit by himself. He said in pain: "This matter is now our princess and the consort who are personally watching this. You have also seen the two notices on the street and the end of the street. Before our shop is completely rented out, it is impossible for you to rent out the shop at a high price."

   "You didn't say that before..."

"I didn't expect the princess to value the shops in this street so much before," the steward said: "This is a street in the new city. There are only so many people in the new city. Our princess has countless properties, not to mention that there are shops in the capital. The fief has a lot of income in one year. How did I know that the princess would personally manage the industry in the new city?"

   "Anyway, everyone thinks it's bad luck."

  "How can this work..."

"Why doesn't this work? I gave you the lowest rent for the shop you rented. The location is okay. Even if you can't rent it out, you won't lose money by doing business yourself," he secretly threatened: "Princess Just sit in the shop on the side, take a step back, hello, hello, hello, everyone, otherwise, I won’t be pleased, and you, and the master behind you, will be able to please?”

  They stopped talking for a moment.

  But I still don’t want to be reconciled. There are not many people in this new city right now. If you spend such a large renovation, you will definitely lose money later.

   Several people gritted their teeth and decided to go back and talk to the host family. This matter has to be delayed.

  They take care of the property for their owners. If they lose too much, they will be punished at the end of the year.

Many shops were rented out at one go. Mingda was very happy, Bai Erlang was also very happy, but the emperor was not very happy.

  This year, the area of ​​Yongzhou in the capital is drought, and other parts of the Central Plains are more or less droughty. Therefore, this year's field vacation was not only released in advance, but also three more days.

  Officials who need to go home to farm, have a total of fifteen days, a full half-month holiday, together with the rest days.

  He thought that the girl would stay with the horse back to the palace for a period of time to accompany his old father, but after the holiday, his daughter would not even live in the capital, so she would live directly in the palace.

  Oh, Bai Er is also leaving the field, because he said that he is going to plant the imperial estate, and his boss approved him with a look of indescribable expression.

  Wei Zhi also took field leave, but instead of taking 15 days, he took ten days. Even ten days is not pure. After returning from the ground to the mansion every day, he will still handle official duties.

  Wei Zhi owns a piece of land in Yongzhou, which he bought by himself.

  This year’s drought, he personally followed the long-term workers to carry water to water the fields, then watched them plow the ground, followed them with their trouser legs and planted seedlings.

  Unfortunately, that piece of land is very close to the one where Lao Zhoutou gave Man Bao the dowry.

  Because of the drought, the two new tenants who were newly recruited this year regretted it. They also own land. Unexpectedly, the spring drought would be so severe. Obviously they could not grow so much land, so they had to return the full land.

  At first glance, Lao Zhou couldn't help but mutter, while bringing his sons and wives to farm.

  Man Bao and Bai Shan also took their field leave altogether, wearing big straw hats, and went to the ground with their trouser legs.

  There is no water canal here, so we can only open the upper ridge, and let the water come down from one family to another, but the amount of water in the river is less, so everyone can only carry water.

  It is impossible for Manbao to carry water. They pulled an ox cart and put the water directly on the cart. As a result, when the cart reached the field, almost the water was scattered.

  Even if the barrel is covered with a lid, it is not very effective.

  The two squatted in the car looking at the bucket in a daze, "It would be nice to have a waterwheel."

  There are water trucks for transporting water, but where can I find it for a while? Moreover, waterwheels are expensive to build, and they cannot directly pay more than the cost of harvesting for farming.

Lao Zhoutou knocked the big dirt in the field back, and saw the two children staring at the barrels and frowning, he glanced at the bullock cart, and said: "You are spilling all the way. What a waste of water."

   muttered to them, "You don’t pick a few big leaves and put them in a bucket before putting the lid on..."

  Man Bao and Bai Shan's eyes lit up, remembering that people in the village like to put a lotus leaf in a wooden bucket when they go to pick up water, so that when the water is swaying, it won't be sprinkled a lot.

Man Bao immediately jumped out of the car and said to Lao Zhou: "Father, don't worry, the water will not be wasted. The grass is also eaten when it falls on the ground. When the grass grows up, our cows can eat it. ."

  Lao Zhoutou: ……This is so idle, the rice and wheat and there is no water to drink, so let’s eat the grass first.

  The two of them took the bullock cart to pull the water again.

  Compared with other farm work, pulling water is not too hard.

  When they arrived at the river, Bai Shan and Man Bao took all the wooden barrels from the car and filled them with water. Man Bao went to pick some big leaves and put them in the barrel, and then put the lid on.

  　See you at six in the afternoon
