Farming in the Mountains: Max Level Jiaojiao Is Three Years Old

Chapter 1553 Even so, I don't believe it

Sure enough, before Tao Zhen answered, everyone else said: "Not much, just give two or three pennies a day."

She was also afraid to say that one or two pennies was too little. Jiang Yue didn't believe it, so she said two or three pennies.

But even so, Jiang Yue didn't believe it.

Jiang Yue and Xue Yan were still looking at Tao Zhen.

Tao Zhen now knows about the temperament of the two benefactors, so naturally he tells the truth: "It's usually about ten cents a day to work for people, like this kind of relaxed, as long as you don't go farther than the county."

This is similar to the big ling.

Jiang Yue and Xue Yan looked at each other, and immediately, Jiang Yue said, "Then let's do ten articles a day. Forget it today, my husband and I still have some things to prepare, and this notice of missing persons is not enough now, it will be available from tomorrow. start."

Only then did Jiang Yue and Xue Yan see how many people they could hire in Stone Village.

Because now the village has basically planted all the things that will be planted in the first half of the year, and all that is left is to take care of the crops, so there are still quite a few people who are free.

A family hired one, or two, and finally counted the total, and there were forty-five people in total.

It is also a small population of Stone Village.

Immediately, Jiang Yuecai said to the forty-five people who were employed: "Go to my husband's residence and my husband's residence early tomorrow morning, take a carriage to the town or county to post and post missing people notices, and don't be on the trees by the roadside. I forgot to post it, it must be conspicuous, as long as you pass by, you can see it, and I will go to the town to hire some carriages with my guild.”

All these people said: "There is no need to take a carriage, we will get up before dawn, and we can just walk." They are all afraid that their benefactors will spend more money.

Jiang Yuedao: "Let's take a carriage, it's too far, get up too early to walk, it's easy for people to lose energy during the day."

This is...

In addition, I really want to do things well for the two benefactors, so these people have no objection, so they all promised to ride the carriage at the village entrance on time tomorrow.

At this time, the seeds are also divided.

Zhang Shoushou and Zhang Dazhu hurried back with the seeds, wanting to clean up the courtyard next door, which is also a thatched hut, for the two benefactors, Jiang Yue and Xue Yan.

Every household in the village came to help with the cleaning.

Jiang Yue and Xue Yan came to the courtyard with them, but there were a lot of people helping with the cleaning, and they were so enthusiastic that they couldn't get involved at all.

They can only look at this courtyard,

There are only a few small rooms, the walls are extremely mottled, and the roofs are covered with thick thatch. It feels as if the walls are hanging down, so the walls are not that high, but the walls are not short, they are normal houses. high.

Because no one has lived in it for many years, no matter which room, it is covered with dust.

There is no bed in the house, only one room has a kang under the window. The kang looks very mottled, but because it was built thick at the beginning, there is no need to worry about it collapsing.

Some windows were broken, but fortunately, although the window of the room where I was sleeping was old, it was not damaged, so there was no need to re-paste the window paper.

There are boxes, cabinets, tables and stools, all of which are very simple in style and very old. Some people have brought water, and several people are helping to clean them neatly.

I also took it out and put it in the sun to dry. The sun is very good today and it will dry quickly.

The stove room is a small one, not to mention other things, just talking about the pot, which has been useless for many years, a lot of embroidery has been produced, and an aunt is helping to grind it.

There is a small pot on the stove.

There is a big tree outside the courtyard wall. The branches of the big tree stretch in, which can cover most of the house on the side of the firewood house, and the yard can also be covered a little.

There are also trees behind the house, with luxuriant branches and leaves, and the shade of the trees is pouring down. It just happens to be covered in the room with the kang. Even if you sleep in it, it should not be particularly hot in summer.

In the yard, there is only a small open space where you can dry things, or people can walk on it, and other places are full of vegetables, which are naturally planted by Zhang Dazhu and Zhang Shoushou.

Judging from the gratifying growth of those vegetables, it should have been planted from the seeds in her space.

There is only one adjacent family next to it, that is the courtyard where Zhang Dazhu and Zhang Shoushou live, which is Zhang Dazhu's house.

Zhang Shoushou's father actually had the surname Zhang, but Zhang Dazhu did not change his surname to Zhang Shoushou.

The layout of Zhang Dazhu's house is similar. Now the gate of the courtyard is open, and it can be seen that the courtyard is also full of vegetables, and there is only a small space left.

Even in the corridor, there are several wooden boxes made of wooden boards, and vegetables are grown in the wooden boxes, and the vegetable seedlings are green.

"It's a little strange." Jiang Yue whispered to her family Xue Yan. "However, the vegetables are planted under the corridor, and they are not planted in the back of the house. Whether it is the back of the house we want to live in or the house next door, it is obviously more suitable for growing vegetables, and it is not that troublesome. We just came here. This, when I passed by other houses, I didn't seem to see anyone who planted vegetables behind the house or outside the yard, all in the yard."

Xue Yan nodded, "It's strange. Just ask."

"Um."

Seeing that his family Yuebao nodded, Tao Zhen also came at this time and wanted to see if there was anything he could help, so Xue Yan asked him about it.

Tao Zhen said: "If we planted at the back of the house, even if we only planted a little bit, the government would charge us the same tax as the field, but if we planted it in the yard, it would be different. It would be equivalent to planting at home, and naturally we would not be taxed. It is not enough to expand the yard. Generally, a house has a deed. The deed has the size of your house including the yard. You can only plant within the size of the deed. No matter how big it is, then planting things in the yard is useless. The government doesn't care about you and still collects your taxes. This is obviously overcharging, and it's only a matter of the past two years. There are also a lot of taxes, but everyone can live to a certain extent. Moreover, in the past two years, the tax is not based on the harvest per mu, but stipulates how much tax must be paid per mu. Therefore, sometimes the harvest is not good. The end of the year, we have planted a lot of things, but the total amount is not enough to pay the tax. So now we are afraid that we will encounter some kind of flood and locust disaster, and the crops will be lost. We still have to pay so much tax. Are we peasants forced to die?"

Jiang Yue and Xue Yan both nodded, this is indeed a heavy tax.

Tao Zhen was silent for a while, but he still couldn't hold back, and said again: "So, I hope, it's just the ghosts of our government here. In fact, the emperor didn't mean that."

Then, he couldn't help but say again: "Actually, I really want to go to other places, especially the imperial capital, to see if it is also taxed in the same way. You can't have different taxation in different places, right? The same is true for the imperial capital, then I really give up. If this is different, doesn’t it make it clear that those officials here really think the sky is high and the emperor is far away, and they have puffed up their pockets. But we are all poor. If you look like this, how can you go to the imperial capital to have a look, and even if you can go there, you won't come back."
