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

The two returned to the courtyard where they lived.

Xue Yan went to the stove to boil hot water, and planned to boil the hot water to give his Yuebao a bath, and then he would cook some porridge.

The people from Shitou Village in the kitchen tank filled with water during the day and could use it; if there was no water in the tank, the water in the space could also be used, and there was no need for him to go to the well to pick it up.

Jiang Yue went to the room and took out a set of clothes that was going to be changed today.

Xue Yan quickly boiled the hot water, carried it into the tub in the room, poured it into the tub, added cold water, tried the water temperature, and felt that the temperature was suitable for washing. After closing the door, he went to the kitchen to wash rice and cook porridge.

Not only is his Yuebao not hungry, but he is not hungry either. Even if he cooks porridge, he doesn't need to cook much. He really cooks a little.

After Jiang Yue took a bath, Xue Yan also cooked the porridge. He went to help pour out the bath water first, and then filled a small bowl of porridge for his Yuebao to eat.

Jiang Yue was really not hungry, she just ate a few mouthfuls and then stopped eating. Xue Yan helped to eat the rest. After Xue Yan washed the dishes and took a shower, it was late at night. .

There was nothing to do, so they just wanted to take a break.

There's nothing wrong with taking a break here.

It's just that there are already mosquitoes in Dachen this month. Before it was dark, Xue Yan had erected four bamboo poles on the four sides of the kang and hung up mosquito nets. In a hurry to lie down, they checked the mosquito net to see if there were any mosquitoes in the mosquito net, so that they could not sleep because of the noise.

Seeing that there were no mosquitoes, Xue Yan blew out the light and lay down.

Not only were they habitually hugging and sleeping, but they were also habitually kissing, and then both of them really closed their eyes and went to sleep.

The next day, Xue Yan got up before dawn, washed the clothes he and his Yuebao had changed, and dried them.

At this time, the sun started to light up.

The two hired aunts have already helped to boil many buckets of paste in their respective homes, and the forty-five hired people also came, and saw that there were more than 2,000 missing people notices, and there were other things in the house , but they didn't see who sent it, and the forty-five people didn't ask anything.

After a while, hired carriages entered Stone Village one after another.

After a little inquiries, I knew how the Xue family was going, and then all the hired carriages came to the gate of the courtyard where Jiang Yue and Xue Yan were temporarily staying.

Then Jiang Yue and Xue Yan sent a notice to the forty-five hired people, each of them took some and a small bucket. The bucket was naturally made of paste, and each of them carried a sticker from their own home in their arms. The little brushes of the Spring Festival couplets,

Then they took the carriages in sequence, and the hired carriages would send them to various places in Dianqi County to start posting and sending missing people notices.

The carriage will come back again to transport the paste, and a small bucket of paste per person a day is definitely not enough.

It is reasonable to say that there is a supervisor everywhere, so as not to actually post and send out missing people notices, but they are hired from Shitou Village. They believe that the people of Shitou Village will not be like this. Naturally There was no one to supervise.

If you go to other places in the future to hire someone to post and send missing notices, you will definitely have to find a supervisor, and not only have to be supervised, but they will also randomly check a place.

It’s also a waste of time to check every place. It’s okay to randomly check a place. I know that they will randomly check a place, and I don’t know which place they will check. Maybe it’s the place where I posted and sent the missing person notice. Those who were hired were naturally afraid that they would not get their wages, so they did not dare to perfunctory them.

Forty-five people hired by Shitou Village went to post and send missing persons notices. Jiang Yue and Xue Yan were not idle, and planned to go to Diangan County.

That is to say, it is about taxation.

They want to go to the county to see if they can hear any news. They also want to visit the county office at night. They definitely won't be able to go back to Stone Village tonight, and they don't know if they can come back tomorrow night. Yes, the day after tomorrow, they will go back to Shitou Village to pay everyone for their work, and they will also go back to Daling.

Therefore, Jiang Yue and Xue Yan asked Zhang Dazhu and his son to help them take care of their courtyard. When they were not in the village, if someone had not enough notices to find people, and they came back to get them, they would give them to them. The notices were all there. The main room is packed in wooden boxes.

Then Jiang Yue and Xue Yan went to Dianku County.

Because Jiang Yue was pregnant, Ma Zong was very energetic after drinking the water in the space and didn't feel tired, but Xue Yan didn't drive the carriage very fast.

I asked passers-by where the county office was, and then they came to the county office. They only glanced at it from a distance and didn't come close. Immediately, they found an inn near the county office to stay.

The carriage was naturally led by the inn's second to the barn at the back, and the inn would help take care of the horses.

What's more, a piece of silver has been given.

Some people from the village also came to the county to post and send tracing notices. They saw it just now, but they didn't go over to say hello. There were so many people there that the carriage was not easy to pass.

It was also when Jiang Yue and Xue Yan were staying at an inn in the county for the first time. In Yaoshui Town, Laibao Bank, a man came back from outside with a piece of paper in his hand.

When the shopkeeper saw it, he asked, "What did you take?"

The guy smiled and said, "The person looking for someone. I just picked up one from the outside. Look at the shopkeeper. I don't know how to read. I just heard it was Xue or something. It's posted on some walls."

The shopkeeper took it over and took a look, smiled and said, "This is a strange notice, what is Xue Dafu, Liu Guixia, Xue Yihu, Xue Erhu, Xue Sanhu, Xue Sihu, and Xue Wuhu? Are you looking for these people? It doesn't seem to be the case, otherwise I will just say that I am looking for these people. There are people, but they didn't say it, there are only these names. If you sign it... it's our Xue family in Shitou Village. Forget it, I can't see who I'm looking for. But this paper is pretty good, I haven't seen it before. The style is probably the new paper made by the paper makers recently. The characters on it are even better. I have never seen a better-looking character than this, and I don’t know which gentleman helped to write and engrave it before printing it. Yes. It will cost a lot of money to get this. It seems that the Xue family is in Shitou Village, and they are considered to have some background."

The guy said: "It should be some family background, but not so much, otherwise it won't be living in any village."

"That's true." The shopkeeper nodded, and immediately forgot about it, just thinking about losing the two people yesterday, he couldn't help but complain: "Why did you lose people? ."

Yes, it was this guy who came back from Zhang Xunren's notice secretly followed Jiang Yue and Xue Yan yesterday, and then got lost.

The guy immediately accompanied the smiling face: "You can't blame me, the shopkeeper. They don't want to tell us the details when they come to exchange so much gold. When they leave, they will definitely pay attention and pay attention everywhere, so that no one will follow them and say Maybe I've already figured out a strategy to hide from people, so it's no wonder I lost it."

The shopkeeper also knew this, so he stopped complaining, and just let this guy do the work too.

*

In Dianqi County, after Jiang Yue and Xue Yan stayed at the inn, they didn't stay at the inn, but wandered around the county, especially in some streets near the county government office, to see if they could hear anything.

This county is naturally more prosperous than Yaoshui Town. There are also people sitting or standing on the side of the street chatting. There are many things chatting, but I haven't heard a single thing related to heavy taxation.

Jiang Yue and Xue Yan continued to walk forward.

Suddenly, I saw the crowd in front busy dodging to both sides, and then, several yamen walked out, all with knives on their shoulders, their faces flushed, talking and laughing loudly, and then walked into a restaurant.

From this county, I really can't see how miserable the people here are.

Jiang Yue and Xue Yan both raised their heads and looked at the plaque of the restaurant. It was written in big characters "Min'an Restaurant", which was somewhat ironic.

The scale of this restaurant is still very large. After inquiring about it from the passers-by, Jiang Yue and Xue Yan knew that this was the largest restaurant in the county.

Judging from the fact that the yamen servants were just familiar with the way, it was obvious that they often went to this restaurant frequently.

No wonder Tao Zhen suspected that all the taxes collected from the peasants went into the pockets of the officials and these people.

"Let's go in and have a look. They are yamen servants. If they say anything, there is probably something we want to hear." Jiang Yue whispered to her family Xue Yan.

"Yeah." Xue Yan nodded.

The husband and wife entered the Min'an Restaurant like this.

People in Min'an Restaurant are very snobbish. They don't say hello when they see bad clothes. They don't even bother to look at them. But Jiang Yue and Xue Yan are dressed in luxurious clothes. They are obviously either rich or expensive. Xiao Er didn't need the shopkeeper's urging, and immediately greeted one of them, and asked them enthusiastically if they wanted to eat upstairs, downstairs, or a private room.

Out of the corner of Xue Yan's eyes, he noticed that the yamen had been invited to a private room on the second floor, and asked, "I think the private room next to those officials is pretty good. You can sit by the window and watch the scenery outside. empty?"

"It's empty, it's empty." The little Er hurriedly smiled. "However, Mrs. Young Master has never been here before. I have to explain to Mrs. Young Master that private rooms are more expensive, especially private rooms with a good view. Usually, the private rooms are not used to greet people like the county magistrate's son, or Greeting the sons of landlords and gentry, they are not short of money."

Xue Yan took out a silver ingot of twenty taels.

The little Er's eyes stopped laughing all of a sudden, and he hurriedly took the money and invited Xue Yan and Jiang Yue to the private room next to the yamen upstairs, and then served good tea and good food again. , a look that will not give up until all of them are used up.

Jiang Yue and Xue Yan didn't say anything.

It wasn't until the young man withdrew from the private room and closed the door of the private room from the outside, and went downstairs after listening to the footsteps, Jiang Yuecai said in a low voice, "Just now he mentioned that the county magistrate's son is not short of money, Add to that what we already know, and it's even more likely that this heavy tax is bizarre."

"Yeah." Xue Yan nodded and let out a breath. No matter what, it is the people who suffer.

They weren't hungry. There were so many dishes on the table that they couldn't finish eating, and they didn't plan to drink. Xue Yan just drank the soup on the table first. Seeing that the taste was good, he gave his Yue Bao a gift. small bowl.

Then, he served a small bowl for himself.

As for the other dishes, Xue Yan picked out a few simple ones and tasted them, and they all tasted alright. It was indeed the largest restaurant in Diankui County. Then, he also added a little to his Yuebao.

Just eat a little, not too much.

Jiang Yue and Xue Yan just ate in a hurry, while listening to the speeches of the yamen in the private room next door. The room could hear clearly.

"Drink, drink." A few yamen were either drinking or talking about trivial things.

No matter how they are yamen, even if it is trivial, there are many things in the yamen.

It's just that there is no one related to heavy taxation.

Jiang Yue and Xue Yan were not in a hurry and still listened quietly.

After listening for a while, I heard-

"I heard that the emperor is going to move the capital, is it true?" said one of the yamen.

"Really?" The yamen who hadn't heard of it asked hurriedly, feeling a little excited.

"It should be true," said the yamen. "It's been more than two years since we've ruled the world for more than two years, and it's time to move the capital. Otherwise, it turns out that people from other countries want to report something to the emperor, and it's too far from the imperial capital."

"That's it." All the other yamen agreed.

"Brother Lu, why do you only care about drinking? Do you know something? Tell us, too. Tell us a little, brothers. Among us, you are the most on duty in front of adults and the master." You yamen laughed road.

"Yes, yes." They all echoed.

Apparently there was a yamen surnamed Lu in the private room next door, and he had more face in the county yamen than other yamen servants in the private room.

The adults and registrars in their mouths are obviously the magistrates of the county government and the registrars of the county government.

"I can't talk about it." Brother Lu took another sip of wine and another big mouthful of food, and then his voice became much lower: "But I can tell you a little bit, I was also talking to the master when the master was talking to the adults. heard."

"What?" The other yamen also suppressed their voices, but they were all excited.

The voice next door was suppressed. It was very small, so Xue Yan couldn't hear clearly, but Jiang Yue had good ears and could still hear more clearly.

I only heard the man called Brother Lu whisper: "The emperor is really going to move the capital, the address of the move has been determined, and the palace has already been built in Daxing, listening to the meaning of the adults and the master book, at most three years, the emperor will I want to move out of the imperial capital, but I have a new capital."

"That's great!" The yamen immediately put down the wine cup. "When the capital is moved, the Emperor Tiangao is far away, and we will be able to follow the adults to eat and drink spicy food!" Although he was extremely excited, his voice was very low.

The other yamen also whispered excitedly.

Brother Lu then laughed and said: "This is outside, how much we have to control it, brothers." Obviously, he is also in a good mood.

"Yes, yes." The voices of the other yamen became louder.

Immediately, these yamen were talking about other things.

After a while, the yamen ate good food and left.

Hearing that there was no movement in the private room next door, Jiang Yuecai told her family Xue Yan: "Just now, Brother Lu, said that Shi Yuan is really going to move the capital. The address has been determined and construction has begun. It will be moved from the imperial capital in three years at most. Go to the new capital city. All the other yamen have said yes, and what they said is that the emperor is far away, and he can follow the magistrate of Dianqi to eat spicy food."

In other words, the possibility of this heavy tax being strange is even greater.
