Greystone Mountain?

Upon hearing this, Jia Huan followed Wang Gui's gesture and looked west.

As expected, a gray-white stone mountain stands not far away, not high, does not occupy too much land, and cannot be said to be steep. It is even bare, all of them are stones and not a single tree, which is ugly.

However, when Jia Huan saw this mountain, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he thought to himself that he really wanted to come to whatever he wanted.

However, there is no rush now, no rush.

Because he has no trustworthy people in his hands to do things.

After coughing twice, suppressing the excitement in his heart. Jia Huan remembered Aunt Zhao's words and said, "By the way, Lao Wang, we left the mansion this time, and we didn't bring any servants. The rest are just lacking two diligent cleaning women. Is there anyone in the village willing to do it? One and a half months of money."

When Wang Gui heard this, he was overjoyed: "The master's family is short of people. From the way we merchants are allocated, they say that the monthly money is not the monthly money..."

Jia Huan said seriously: "Really?"

When Wang Gui saw Jia Huan being serious, he suddenly stopped. He was neither smiling nor smiling.

Jia Huan laughed and said, "Just kidding, of course, I don't want you to think you're good at talking and tampering when you see me as young."

Upon hearing this, the old man slapped his chest like a broken stone and said loudly: "Absolutely impossible, absolutely impossible. If you dare to have such a person, you don't need the third master to do it. I will take him off by myself and beat him half to death. I inquire all over the world. Where can I only charge 40% of the rent and help tenants pay corvee money and taxes? If you encounter such a family, you will still be cheating and cheating, that's really unreasonable."

Wang Gui said passionately and movedly, but Jia Huan felt so heartbroken when he heard it.

When Wang Gui calmed down, Jia Huan asked tentatively: "Old Wang, how much is the rent I charge 40% of it? Is it enough to pay you corvee silver and tax on the tuition of the tuition?"

When Wang Gui heard this, his old face smiled awkwardly and said, "It should be enough, but our land is not very good, and the harvest is limited and tight, so... Haha, you can add some more, it's enough to think about it."

You have a first step!

Is the local owner or charity?

After a long time, I gave me an insolvent farm and asked me to fill the hole!

Jia Huan was furious and his little face turned pale.

Wang Gui made up for the mistake and said, "San Master, you can't lose much. Winter is coming soon, and the farmers can go to the forest to hunt. The wild boars and deer they have caught will be picked and given to the third master. There are also the chickens, ducks, pigs and sheep we raise, and they will be filial to you during the Chinese New Year."

After a few circles in his mind, Jia Huan said, "Our Zhuangzi has only about 100 acres of land, so it is not enough for thirty-six people to plant it, right? Is this population too much?"

When Wang Gui heard this, his face was shocked, thinking that Jia Huan wanted to lay off people and save money.

This era is not a future generation. If you are amazing, you will go to work and you will never starve to death.

In this era, farming is the main focus.

But most farmers don’t have land and don’t know much skills, so they don’t have any place to learn from Lan Xiang now.

However, taxes on farmers without land are still indispensable.

Living in a farm in Jia Mansion, no matter what, you can still eat and not starve to death, and you can't die of clothes and cold...

Nowadays, most of the Jia family are prodigal sons, who do not understand the worldly affairs and need face. After the Chinese New Year, the house went to cry and was poor, and they just gave away some wild game money.

After all, the Jia family did not expect this rented life.

But if we change the owner, it would be really worthy of money for our lives, and the tenants would live a very difficult life.

The most troublesome thing is that even such a master is hard to find now.

The Qin Dynasty has been safe and safe for a long time, and the disadvantages have gradually emerged. The most serious of them is probably the problem of land annexation.

The farmers have no power and power, and they can no longer stand the spying of wealthy families. After a few strokes, the land in their hands will be gone.

Nowadays, there are many landless tenants who want to farm land, and the competition is quite fierce.

If Jia Huan drives out, the merchants will be dragged by their children and their elderly people, how can they survive?

These households in the village have been intimate for decades and have been married to each other. They are either in-laws or sisters-in-law. If someone is really cleared out, the others will not bear it.

At that time, his banker will be really not easy to be a human being.

Wang Gui hurriedly said, "Third Master and Third Master, the farmers in the village are all old people in the mansion for several lifetimes, and have been farming for the mansion for generations. If they are driven out, then...then..."

Wang Gui had been "that" for a long time, but he didn't say anything. He was so anxious that his face turned red and his neck was thick.

He also knew that they were really unauthorized in doing so. The tenant's family's land farming was not even worth the tax paid by the owner.

This kind of thing is because they are in the wrong way. If it is spread, they will inevitably become a bad guy, and no one dares to hire them as a tenant in the future.

Wang Gui was anxious, gritted his teeth and said, "San Master, we are willing to pay more rent. As long as we don't drive people away, we will pay one or two percent more, we will do it."

Jia Huan smiled and said, "Then can't you live a life?"

Wang Gui smiled bitterly and said, "Why? Being poor and tighter is better than being hungry to death than being wandering outside."

Jia Huan waved his hand and smiled, "Old Wang, you misunderstood what I mean."

Wang Gui was stunned when he heard this, looking at the little man in front of him, but he didn't dare to just treat him as a young master who was incompetent...

Jia Huan continued: "First of all, I won't rent it up anymore, and adding 10% or 20% is probably not much money. Secondly, I will not only not drive people out, but also continue to recruit people. It's probably only in the past two days, and a few craftsmen will come to the farm. What I mean is that since these people cannot use farming, is there anyone among you who are willing to do my job?"

When Wang Gui heard this, although he didn't know what Jia Huan was going to do, he was already very happy to hear that he would not drive out the people. He said repeatedly: "Of course I am willing, of course I am willing. In another month, winter will begin. Everyone has nothing to do. It is naturally excellent for the Third Master to have a job, and it is naturally excellent."

Jia Huan smiled and said, "That's good, but Lao Wang, when I talk about the ugly things I do, everything I do needs to be kept secret, and there are secret recipes. I am not worried about those craftsmen, and my body is in my hands, and my life or death is all in my thoughts. They will not betray me. But if someone makes a mistake at that time, don't blame me for disregarding your Wang family's old face for several lifetimes. If the board is knocked down, I will not recognize my relatives."

When Wang Gui heard this, he looked at Jia Huan again, and his eyes were a little different. He said in a deep voice: "Third Master, you may not know. There are many farms in the Jia Mansion, and the farmlands are probably surplus of hundreds of hectares. But the rent for such low tenancy is only our farm. Although the name is 40%, the actual payment is about 20%. Even so, the mansion still pays various taxes to us.

Why? Because in this village, not only the ancestors of my Wang family were heroes, but also the Li family, Guo family, Zhao family, Sun family, and their fathers and grandparents were all followed by the first generation of Duke Rong or the second generation of Duke Rong to send troops to let go of horses. Some were disabled, some were destroyed, and some were destroyed, and some died in battle with the old Duke Rong.

It is precisely because of this that the mansion has raised us for decades in vain. We planted our land, paid taxes, and did not collect any rent. People's hearts are full of flesh, and we are not people who do not understand the truth. The mansion does not owe us anything, but we owe the mansion. Therefore, we all understand the matter of the mansion giving Zhuangzi to the Third Master and changing the master, and we are willing to do it with the Third Master.

Third Master, what the little old man wants to say is that a family like us is a family that is connected with the Jia family and a real old man. If Third Master doesn’t even believe us, who else do you believe?

If our children do something to betray the Third Master, then they will betray you, you, not only the Third Master. He is betrayed his ancestors, his bloodline and surname. Such people will not be able to enter the ancestral grave even if they die. I will never believe that there will be such a rebellious person in the village."

Jia Huan was silent for a while after hearing this, shook his head and smiled, "It's me that I'm wrong. Lao Wang, don't blame me. It's not that I'm mean and polite. It's really that I don't know your origin. They are all loyal and kind descendants. But are you only five families?"

When Wang Gui heard this, his expression was a little dazed and sighed: "How come there are only five families? There were thirteen iron pagodas under the Heiyun Banner of Duke Rong back then. They were also called the Thirteen Generals of the Heiyun, and they were the most powerful generals under the Duke. Unfortunately, in the last battle of the Duke, they all died in the battle."

Jia Huan frowned and said, "What about their family? Thirteen Generals, besides you five, there should be eight more families."

When Wang Gui heard this, tears flowed down his eyes and said, "Wang Li, Guo, Zhao, Sun, Yu Zhou, Gu Haiyang, and Dong Zhanhuang. Except for our five surnames, the other eight families have been searched and beheaded."

Jia Huan was shocked and said, "What's going on?"

Wang Gui wiped away his tears and said, "After the Duke of the First Kingdom died in battle, the emperor was furious. After hearing the news, he vomited a mouthful of blood and fainted. After the emperor woke up, he took his anger at the ineffective protection of Thirteen Futu, and wanted to implicate all the family members of Thirteen Futu to comfort Duke Rong's spirit in heaven.

After killing eight families in a row, the eldest and second masters took the grandfather's confession to the hall. The second master took the opportunity to plead and then protected our five families. Therefore, if the young man dared to guarantee the heads, there would definitely be no rebellious villains in our five families."

Jia Huan always felt something was wrong, so he touched his nose, and suddenly his mind lit up, and he said, "Old Wang, didn't you say that the Qin Dynasty has been in peace for a long time? It seems that this Duke Rong has not been a long time since his death in the war, right? My father has only been chaotic this year... What's going on?"

Wang Gui smiled and said, "The Great Qin has inherited peace, but it may not be accepted in other places. As long as there is no war on the territory of the Great Qin, it can be called Chengping Antai. As for the war that my old Qin army has taken on other lands, it is not considered the Great Qin war..."

Jia Huan still felt that something was wrong: "My grandfather was killed in the battlefield, how could his legacy be in the hands of the master and the master?"

Wang Gui laughed out loud and said, "The Third Master is still young and has never passed through that era. Not only the old Duke, but the emperor personally fought. Before going to the battle, he had to make a record of the funeral and arrange his funeral. No one can tell the matter on the battlefield. These are all wartime rules."

Jia Huan suddenly realized...
