Chapter 85

Contribute money and effort

Author: Li Wenwen

Contribute money and effort

The rich don't want to give money. After all, the money has been used up. If something happens at home and it's not an emergency, it's still for the sake of the whole village and they won't be reconciled.

People without money dare not speak. They keep their heads down for fear of being disliked.

At this time, Shen Yunxi took out a charcoal pen and a piece of wood. "Uncle village chief, ask those rich people to take out their money. Many people are unwilling. This is human nature.

Well, for the land opened this year and the grain planted, the seed money will be refunded first, and then the remaining grain will be distributed equally. As for the farm tools, the person who paid the money will own the ownership of these farm tools.

If you want to use farm tools in the future, you should rent them. That way, it's fair to the person who pays. Others who don't pay can't take advantage of it."

When people hear this, look at me, I'm looking at you.

Chief Tian was also very angry. He wanted to lead the villagers to settle down. However, the villagers had their own ideas.

On the contrary, Shen Yunxi understands this. Who is not selfish?

In addition, people are selfish and it is good to use others; but they do not like to be used by others.

Have sympathy, but don't mix it up.

Village Chief Tian immediately took out three taels of silver and said, "From the Youqing family, please write it down so I can buy seeds and farm tools."

Shen Yunxi wrote on the board with charcoal: "Village chief, three taels of silver. Shen Yunxi, three taels of silver. Hurry up, everyone. If you have silver coins, you can take them out quickly. Anyway, when You can give it back when you harvest the food.

Let's develop wasteland and grow food together. The imperial envoy Zhang asked us to settle here. This is our former Lihua Village. If we can't settle down, we will have to go back to the distant Guangyang Mansion."

The village chief said this, and everyone thought about it and came to hand over their money one after another. Of course, they were not fools and would not give all their money.

Some took out half, some took out a third.

Shen Yunxi recorded them one by one. He collected a total of twenty-four taels of silver, and no one wanted to give them out again.

Shen Yunxi handed the money to Village Chief Tian and said, "Village Chief, I have written down all the people who paid. You can take people to buy seeds today."

Village Chief Tian was very nervous, even a little scared. He thought that Shen Yunxi could handle the imperial envoy very well. "From the Youqing family, I drove an ox cart with the two dogs who are the best at farming in the village. You take your elder Niu, let's go to the county town to buy seeds. You can calculate accounts, know how to read, and have courage. You can speak better than me."

Shen Yunxi was still thinking about changing seeds on the way, so she nodded: "Okay, I'll go with you. It's too far. We have to hurry up. We'll stay in the county for one night. Buy all the things we need. Something to buy.”

Chief Tian handed over the construction of the house to Tian Dahu, and handed over the reclamation of the land to his eldest sons Tian Weichuan and Tian Tieshuan.

Before leaving, Shen Yunxi said to Zheng Guizhen: "Sister-in-law, I took Daniu and the village chief to the county town to buy seeds. You will take care of the three children at home at night."

Zheng Guizhen nodded: "Don't worry. Qiaoling and Junling Xiuli can take care of our children. Don't worry."

Before leaving, Shen Yunxi asked Xiuli to take care of her younger siblings and said that she would buy her a headband when she came back from the county.

It was very hot along the way. Shen Yunxi passed by a lotus field, picked some lotus leaves, and put them on her head.

The road was deserted, and there were even some weeds on the road. But because they passed by yesterday, they took a small path.

Fortunately, there were no bandits or robbers along the way. Although it was hot and tiring, Shen Yunxi could still bear it.

Fortunately, we arrived at the county seat - Shanyang County before the gate closed.
