"Zhang Butcher Zhang will give you seven days to get me a hundred healthy puppies and send them to Mazidun. The price will be reduced again." Zhao Hai said arrogantly on the donkey.

"This~~~", Zhang Butuhu's two small eyes turned quickly.

"Four taels and nine cents, Zhao Baihu's price is already very low." Zhang Butcher said gritting his teeth.

"Four taels and five cents, if not, I won't want it!" Zhao Hai said firmly.

Butcher Zhang looked at Zhao Hai hesitantly, and Zhao Hai rode on the donkey and left.

Zhang butcher Zhang panicked, took a few steps, stopped Zhao Hai, and said with a smile: "I will send it to you within seven days according to Lord Baihu."

Zhao Hai threw out a piece of silver or two and said loudly: "This is a deposit of money, I'll get it!"

Butcher Zhang rushed to catch the silver, and his face was filled with smiles~~~~~

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Zhao Hai spent one cent to buy more than three kilograms of pork, one tael or two cents to buy four low-grade cotton cloth, and rode a donkey to go to Mazidun leisurely. It took more than half an hour to walk for a ten-mile journey~~~~~

~~~~~~~~~~~

When Zhao Hai returned home, he took the fishing net and rode another donkey, and headed towards Mazi Port a mile away. After more than an hour, Zhao Hai returned home with more than a dozen kilograms of sea fish. After a while of rest, he started feeding the two puppies~~~~

"Xiao Huang, Xiao Hei, come to eat fish~~~" Zhao Hai shouted, and the two puppies ran over happily, eating the small fish in the basin like a voracious meal~~~~~~

~~~~~~~~~~~

After a night, the fatigue disappeared. After Zhao Hai had breakfast, he walked to the valley field in Dunbao and rang the gong. A quarter of an hour later, more than 40 military households came to the valley field. Everyone was wearing rags and many children were not wearing pants, just like a group of beggars~~~

"Everyone is quiet, quiet!" As Zhao Hai stopped him loudly, the sound in the field gradually became smaller. The military households were either dull or hatred to look at the 100 households in front of him. The 100 households were 1.7 meters tall, dark, and looked very thin, and weighed no more than 120 kilograms~~~~~

"The weather has been dry for many years, and winter is very cold and early, so everyone planted drought-resistant spring wheat. Each acre of land can produce more than one stone. The reason why we charge seven dou of rent per acre is because we have to pay taxes to the court, and it is not easy for us to do so,"

"Today I will recruit ten servants, ages between twelve and thirty. If I can be selected, I will only charge six or nine liters of rent per mu when I collect rent in the autumn." Zhao Hai said loudly.

The military households in the field began to talk, and the sound became noisy~~~~

"I rented a hundred and twenty acres of land for a hundred households, and also helped grow four acres of arable land and more than one cent of vegetable land for a hundred households. The five people in the family can collect six stones of grain a year, and they can barely eat half full. Dogs are thirteen this year, so they are about to say that they are wife. One acre of land is less than one liter of grain, and that twenty acres are ~~~~~ Two dou of grain, two dou of grain is enough for a family to have a few days of full meal during the Chinese New Year~~~~~~" Uncle Zhang calculated as he calculated with his fingers, and the corners of his mouth curled up.

"Dogzi, dad has done the calculations. If you go to be a servant for hundreds of adults, our family can collect two more dou of food a year, which is enough for the whole family to have a few days of full meals during the Chinese New Year." Uncle Zhang said, touching the dog's head.

As the saying goes, if you have half a young man, Zhang Gouzi never felt full before, so he nodded firmly.
