and the others came closer, and Li Wangyou was surprised to find that these villagers were holding various things in their hands.

There are eggs, live chickens, wild products, and some people help Li Heng and Pei Lan to start moving things down from the bullock cart.

“hehe, small master, don’t be surprised, these are all villagers of our Dingzhou Village, everyone is here to welcome you.”

Welcome yourself?

Li Wangyou is even more surprised, what skills and abilities himself have?

Just as a young official moved back from Hu County to the old house in Dingzhou Village in embarrassment, why did so many people come to welcome him?

Seeing that these villagers are mostly dressed in shabby clothes, but still send so many things to themselves, it makes him more uneasy.

Also, Li Wangyou was surprised to find that among these Dingzhou Village villagers, many middle-aged men have physical disabilities, and many of them lack arms, legs or blindness.

Too late to think about the reason, Li Wangyou kept all around and gave his hands back and forth: “Wangyou dare not disturb you all. If you have trouble, if you have trouble, please take these things back.”

“Small master, this is all my Dingzhou Village villagers’ wishes, and I hope the small master will not refuse.” For Li Wangyou’s words, the villagers just smiled honestly, but did not answer, only Old Village Head smiled and replied.

“How does this make it.”

“It’s okay, it’s okay, it’s my own family in the future, why not.”

Su Changqing was also used by a villager in Dingzhou Village She was stunned by her enthusiasm, but she couldn’t figure out the situation, so she could only help carry utensils to the old house.

Many people are easy to handle. All the things that were not on the bullock cart were moved into the old house in a moment, and the things sent by the villagers were piled in the hall.

After all this was done, the villagers smiled honestly at Li Wangyou nodded, and then dispersed again, leaving only Old Village Head alone.

Li Wangyou hurriedly invited Old Village Head into the hall, and instructed Pei Lan to boil the water before he bowed his hand to Old Village Head: “Village Head Qian, why on earth is this, please explain.”

“Duke Li took care of the people of my Dingzhou Village when he was alive. This is also a little bit of everyones heart. Small masters dont refuse. Hey, its a pity that Duke Li went early. Ah.”

Old Village Head said something that surprised Li Wangyou, but smiled bitterly.

It turns out that when Li Zhou was alive, although the Li Clan clan moved from Dingzhou Village, Li Zhou took care of the village a lot. Because the land in Dingzhou Village is barren, he also tried to ask the County Official to reduce or exempt the village’s rent adjustment, which made the villagers remember his favor.

Unfortunately, Li Zhou couldn’t change the barren condition of Dingzhou Village. Although he could help for a while, he couldn’t help the whole life. Dingzhou Village is still barren.

Dingzhou Village, one hundred and twenty-seven households, five hundred and sixty-three people.

The village is backed by Shouyang Mountain in Qinling Mountains and adjacent to Gan River in the north.

Because the land is barren, especially the land near the river beach is saline soil, it is impossible to grow anything at all.

The average yield of Dingzhou Village is less than one stone per mu, which is a combination of grain. In Great Tang, the average yield per mu is about 1.5 shi, or 15 buckets of grain.

Dingzhou Village is located at the foot of Shouyang Mountain. There is less arable land, and each farmer has an average of about 20 mu.

Five or six acres of the 20 acres of land are mulberry fields, which are used to grow mulberry, elm, and jujube trees.

In other words, the income of the villagers of Dingzhou Village from hard farming is only 14 to 5 shi of grain each year.

But the fourteen five-stone grains still need to be paid for rent. Two grains of grain, two zhang of silk and two zhang of cotton.

The rest of the grain is just enough for a farmers ration that’s all. If there is a natural and man-made disaster, this day will be impossible.

Li Wangyou began to understand why the children in the village were all dressed in tattered clothes, and there were even many half-old youngsters running around with their farts.

One word, poor!

And Old Village Head stammering only spoke for a long time, actually wanting to ask if Li Wangyou can still ask the county to reduce or exempt some rent-adjusted taxes.

In the view of Old Village Head, Li Family is after all the Great Family.

Li Zhou has supervised Hu County for many years, and he wants to have a lot of contacts. Although Li Zhou has passed away, when Li Wangyou may be able to ask Magistrate to give the village some tax relief.

Looking at Old Village Head’s expectant face, Li Wangyou’s lips trembled a few times, without speaking.

What can he say?

Tell Old Village Head that I cant do anything about it? Tell Old Village Head that he still owes one hundred and six 120,000 square meters? Such a huge debt might scare the old man to death.

Not to mention thinking of the coming locust plague, that is the ultimate disaster!

Li Wangyou shook his head sadly…

With the locust plague, I am afraid that the poor farmers in Dingzhou Village will not be able to survive. What can I do?

Originally, I only wanted to find a way to make money and hoard a batch of food for my family within a month, but now looking at the eggs and mountain products piled in the main house, Li Wangyou’s heart is a bit tingling.

This Dingzhou Village is so barren. The village is almost full of thatched houses built of yellow mud. Most of the villagers are also in tattered clothes. Even the clothes on the Old Village Head are covered with patches.

It can be seen that the villagers are in a difficult life, but they still send him so many things to Li Wangyou, just to thank Li Zhou for his efforts.

Li Wangyou even saw that many children in the village saw the eggs and so on, and their saliva almost came out.

He is also a child who grew up in the countryside, and he knows the hardships of the farmers. Although the villages of later generations will not have enough to eat, he understands the thoughts of the villagers.

Lets take these eggs as an example. I guess they dont want to eat them at all. They have to go to Hu County to exchange money. Thats why those children are so greedy.

They really havent tasted the taste of eggs…

Old Village Head dont know, and the simple villagers dont know, their passionate behavior will bring Li Wangyou Almost forced to the absolute road.

Li Wangyou has a clear love and dislike, whoever treats him well, he will return it thousands of times. At the same time, this guy is also a character seeking revenge for the slightest grievance, you have to provoke him, hum, black belly man can hold grievances for a lifetime.

Dingzhou Village, one hundred and twenty-seven households, five hundred and sixty-three people, a heavy burden of incomparable gigantic…

If there is no locust plague, Li Wangyou is sure to do it himself Starting from a brewery or other industry, Dingzhou Village will definitely become the richest village around Ch_ng’n in a short time.

If there were no locust plagues, he still had various ways to make money in his mind, which would enable these villagers to live a good life, and he would become the leisurely little landlord he was looking forward to.

This damn locust plague!

This great Tang of bastard! Who specifically said that this is the Great Tang period of prosperity?

Li Wangyou finally said nothing in Old Village Head’s expectant eyes, but promised to help the villagers find ways to plead with the County Official.

With such an empty promise, Old Village Head could not close his mouth with a smile.

After Old Village Head left, Su Changqing walked out of the back hall and knelt gently beside Li Wangyou.

“Wangyou, what should I do now?” Having fully understood the situation the two are about to face, Su Changqing is also helpless.

Li Wangyou clutched his hair depressed: “I don’t know, you can help me think about it, besides making wine, is there any way to make money quickly?”

Su Changqing Two-hand rest With fragrant cheeks, browse tightly frowns: “Perfume? Burn glass? Open restaurant? But these are not short-term benefits. You can’t go out and robbery, right?”

This small body, its good not to be robbed by others. Li Wangyou said irritably. His current 16-year-old body is actually not as tall as a beautiful boss. What a failure!

“What should I do? By the way, I remember you said that you can paint? How about you paint for money? Great Tang painter’s income seems to be good, right?” Su Changqing beautiful eyes blinked Blink, another bad idea came out.

“Young Lady, I was boasting with you. I only learned sketching in high school, but I dont know Chinese painting. Besides, even if I can paint, I cant compare to these ancients. Im not famous. Who are the paintings sold to?” Li Wangyou replied feebly.

“Well…sell the makeup mirror?”

“You let me think about it again, we can still be suffocated by urine, the mirror Lets say yes, dont sell it.”

Li Wangyou clutched his scalp in distress, but suddenly saw Li Heng clearing the items in the courtyard, and he wrote on the account book with a charcoal pen. what.

Charcoal? sketch?

Li Wangyou’s brain glided through a flash of lightning, it seems that this is really possible!

Carefully glanced at Su Changqing, who was thinking hard on the side, and hid this idea in my heart.

I dare not let the beauty boss know about this, it seems a little shameful!
