Wu Qingyuan was not in a hurry for the time being. All the goods he brought back were goods that could be stored. All the goods that could not be stored outside were put in the space.

It has been may this year. The top priority is to buy the fields as soon as possible and plant them at the end of spring, otherwise most of the time will be wasted this year.

It's easy to buy fields. Just go to the village head directly. However, because he buys a large number of fields, it's not enough for Liushu village to sell him good fields. He can only open up wasteland himself or buy it in the next village.

Finally, after discussion, Wu Qingyuan bought all the remaining public good fields in Liushu village, a total of 50 mu, as well as nearly 100 mu of wasteland and a hillside behind the village, and spent nearly 300 liang of silver. In addition to the high cost of good fields, the prices of wasteland and hillside are very convenient.

But the village head had some questions about his purchase of nearly 100 mu of wasteland and a dry hillside.

"Wu family, you don't look like someone who has planted fields. Maybe you don't know very well. I'd better put it in front of you, old man. I'm afraid you'll hit the 100 mu wasteland and hillside in your hand. You should think clearly..."

The old village head was very kind and worried. He was naturally happy that the wasteland in the village could be sold, but they were all people living in a village. He, who is the village head, can't cheat people. He has to be careful with such a large sum of money.

He can see that Wu Qingyuan must have the idea of reclaiming wasteland, but it's not cost-effective to ask people to reclaim so many wasteland, because after reclaiming an acre of wasteland, it will take a year or two to become fertile land and grow good food. The poor families in the village don't want to reclaim wasteland by themselves as a last resort. They might as well spend more money to buy good land directly.

"Don't worry, village head. Qingyuan has his own plan. Please worry about it..."

Wu Qingyuan insisted as much as when he bought the carbon kiln.

The villagers regard the hundreds of acres of wasteland and dry land slopes as worthless waste, which can be put into his hands. It is a huge treasure, because he has many crop seeds suitable for planting in this dry land.

After traveling for so long, coupled with this business trip, he has basically mastered the local customs. In addition to technical reasons, the variety of grain planted by villagers is the biggest key.

So far, the most high-yield food in Xia kingdom is sweet potato. In fact, high-yield crops such as corn and potato have also appeared here, but they are very rare and have not been popularized. Moreover, due to genetic reasons, the fruits of these crops he saw on his business trip are not as mature as modern times, and the yield is very small.

So once he takes out modern seeds and plants them, coupled with his ability to assist in seedling raising, the grain store will make a steady profit after the autumn harvest!

He disclosed some of these analyses to Amer. Although Amer was worried, he did not stop it. No matter what brother Wu did, he could live a good life in the future.

"Grandpa village head, don't worry. After our family has made up its mind, you can write a contract for us." ah Mo helped persuade us.

"In that case, OK, wait for me, I'll get something..."

Buyers are so insistent that as sellers, it is impossible to keep money without making money. The village head agreed and hurried back to get pen and ink to write a contract. Such a large piece of wasteland was sold. The villagers shared their money, and life is much better this year.

The transaction procedure of the field in the village is very simple, and the contract is not as complex as the modern contract. Once the silver is given, the contract is written, and the transaction is completed.

After thanking the village head, they didn't delay. They immediately had lunch and got up to leave.

At this time, the door of the village head's house was suddenly pushed open, and an elderly couple ran in crying.

"Village head, old village head, Wuwu, please save our family. We are all from the same village. Our old man is still a brother who grew up with you in a pair of trousers. You must help us beg for mercy to master Qian this time. We didn't mean not to pay grain. We will make up for it this year. If master Qian doesn't rent the land to us, how can our family live this year? Wuwu …”

As soon as he entered the door, the old woman knelt down directly to the village head and cried.

Her wife ran to the back and knelt down to beg, "old brother, you have to help old brother this time..."

"Brother and sister-in-law, get up quickly. What are you doing? Speak slowly. What happened?"

The village head was startled by the kneeling of the two people and quickly stretched out his hand to help them.

Ah Mo also helped to help "ah Nai Liu, Grandpa Liu, don't worry, get up and talk..."

"Woo woo, how can we not be in a hurry? Just now master Qian's dog leg Wang Dafu came to our house and took all our fields back. He also said that he would not rent them to our house in the future. Our family lives on those acres of land and has no fields. This is not to kill our old Liu family, woo woo..."

The old woman on the ground refused to get up. She knelt on the ground and began to cry. In fact, the matter is not complicated. It is about tenant farmers renting land.

The situation of Liushu village has also been mentioned before. The villagers don't own much land and grow enough food. They need to rent land from major landlords in Shiqiao Town every year to make a living, while the villagers in Liushu village mainly rent the land of a foreigner surnamed Qian.

The old couple are also one of the tenants of the Qian family.

Originally, her family rented this field well, but last year, her eldest son went to work in the mountain and met wild animals. He didn't lose his life, but he was seriously injured. He took medicine and saw a doctor after he came back. He spent a lot of money. He couldn't work during his recovery.

The youngest son of her family is a scholar who can't lift his hands and shoulders. Finally, they have to wait on the field at home. When they are old, they can't work more efficiently than the young people, and the harvest is naturally bad.

The villagers in Liushu village can only rent his field, and the rent is very high. Therefore, by the end of the year, the Liu family can't afford to pay grain. When the rent is renewed this year, the dog legs of the Qian family come to the door and take all the Liu family's fields back and don't rent them.

For Qian Yuanwai, these fields are just the tip of the iceberg, but for the Liu family, they are the life / root of the family. Without these fields, the Liu family will starve to death this year, so they come to the village head and ask the village head to help talk about love.

"Village head, when you grow up with me, you go to Qian's house to help us. We don't pay grain. We must make up for it all by the end of this year. My eldest son has been well and can go to the field this year. Please, village head."

"Old brother, I know it's hard to say where Qian Yuanwai is, but my family really can't help it."

The old couple of the Liu family cried in despair. If the village head refused to help, their family would really starve to death this year.

"Hey..."

After hearing this, the village head sighed and sympathized, but he didn't dare to agree immediately.

It's not that he is hard hearted, but that he is famous for recognizing money but not people. He doesn't talk about friendship at all. It's useless for him to ask for it with thick skin. This kind of thing is not new.

But Lao Liu's family is an old man in the village again. We have been together in a village for decades and have feelings. It's hard for him to watch the Liu family go to a dead end.

So finally, the village head put his eyes on Wu Qingyuan, which was funny.

"Wu family, do you think you can rent a few acres of land to Liu family? Don't worry, Lao Liu's eldest son is a worker. Now he's cured. He won't owe the rent by the end of this year. If the Liu family can't pay the rent at that time, I'll decide. Can I help them pay the rent with the money from the ancestral temple in the village?"

Wu Qingyuan has just bought so many fields that he must be looking for someone to rent. The Liu family happened to meet him.

"Ah Mo, Liu a Nai and grandpa Liu all watched you grow up. You know the situation of their family. They are honest people and won't rent..."

At last, the village head looks at amo and asks him to help.

The Wu family attaches great importance to the Lin family. During this time, the villagers can see that any friendship is not as good as a pillow. If amo is willing to help, the Wu men will certainly consider it.

"Ah Mo, you help ah Nai and tell your master that our family won't rent. Please, ah Nai kowtows to you."

Liu's old husband and wife also acted according to the circumstances and put their hope on Lin amo. The two old people kowtowed with red eyes and grabbed the last straw.

"I... brother Wu."

Ah Mo is a little embarrassed. The Liu family's grandparents are really good people. He wants to help very much, but the tenant field is dominated by the man in charge. Where can the little brother talk? He doesn't know what to do. He can only look at Wu Qingyuan with hopeful eyes.

"You are the master of our family."

Wu Qingyuan didn't take the initiative to agree, but smiled and handed over the decision-making power to him. His ah Mo can do whatever he wants.

Such an indulgent attitude made everyone in the yard stunned, and the village head secretly smacked his tongue. The Wu family said that it was up to Fu Lang to decide such a big thing as tenant field, without considering it?

"I know who is in charge."

After a brief pause, ah Mo smiled. His heart was as sweet as a jar of honey. He nodded, and then promised the Liu family to rent the field. He was so happy that the Liu family's husband and wife kowtowed with gratitude and tears that they couldn't stop him.

Wu Qingyuan was amused by his master and smiled. When he finished, he continued to add to the village head.

"Village head, in this way, all my fields need to be rented out. You can help me inform the villagers this evening and let them come to my house tomorrow afternoon when they need it. Uncle Liu, you go back first. I'll write a lease for you tomorrow afternoon. By the way, I'll talk about the rules of my rented fields."

The land must be rented, but the rules must be established.

"OK, thank you, Master Wu, thank you, Wu Fulang."

Every landlord will set rules and conditions for his tenant farmers. This is a very normal thing. As long as there is land rent, the old husband and wife of the Liu family are happy and grateful, and the title has been changed to the name of the landlord family.

Wu Qingyuan accepted it calmly.
