Those seeds were still packed in the jumbo sacks that were distributed by the government, and everyone only paid the bills according to the amount they should distribute, and paid deposits and money without even looking at the seeds.
Lian Fangzhou only needs to unpack one of the bags, save the remaining unsold portions, and take the rest away.
"One more thing," Zhang Lizheng smiled, and said lightly as a joke: "Yesterday afternoon, someone from Shangcun came to ask if they would accept the cotton seeds from them, and said they would sell them, so I just smiled and said I don't know. He said let me ask for help, come back tomorrow!"
Lian Fangzhou was overjoyed immediately, and said with a smile: "I still need to collect more than five thousand catties of cotton seeds. If there are any, just bring them and save my trouble! It's just—"
Lian Fangzhou paused, looked at Zhang Lizheng with an embarrassed smile, and said, "I'm not free for a while, and there's no one else in our family who can do this! As the saying goes, one thing doesn't bother two masters. Uncle Lizheng, if you have If it’s empty, I’d like to ask you to collect it. This is not a matter of our village. If I ask you to help for nothing, it’s a bit unreasonable! This matter is actually quite cumbersome, and I have to stay at home all day Can’t do anything else! The person who does it must be able to write and read scales, and must be able to hold the field so that no one will make trouble! There must be a channel to release the news in advance. I think, Even if I dare to say something bold, I ask you to help me with five qian a day, and I will charge you for four days first, do you think it will work?"
Niu didn't really go away, he just listened with his ears outside the door! I heard Lian Fangzhou say five taels of silver a day, and two taels in four days!
It's not tiring to do a job, just sitting at home for four days can earn back two taels! A fool would not do it!
Niu was afraid that Zhang Lizheng would refuse, so he pushed the door open and came in, and said with a smile: "Fangzhou, you are so polite! You have said so, how can your Uncle Lizheng refuse? It is too much to refuse. It's unreasonable, isn't it! I'm not boasting, but if the conditions you said are true, there is no other person in the village besides him!"
"Auntie really wants to be with me!" Lian Fangzhou clapped his hands and laughed, glanced lightly, and said with a smile: "Then this matter..."
Just as Zhang Lizheng opened his mouth, Niu clapped his hands and said with a decisive smile: "Success! You've already said that, how could it be possible? Right?" The formation that does not agree to try.
Zhang Lizheng smiled wryly, and said to Lian Fangzhou: "That's fine, anyway, I don't have anything to do now that the farming is slack! It's just that two liang of silver is too much."
"It's not much at all!" Lian Fangzhou laughed hurriedly: "To be honest, if I ask someone else to do this, I, I don't feel at ease! Two taels of silver, how can it be too much!"
"Fangzhou is not short of money now!" Mrs. Niu gave Zhang Lizheng a white look, and asked Lian Fangzhou with a tentative smile, "I heard that you have a cousin in Shuangliu County? It was her idea that your family wants to grow cotton this time... and money." ?”
Rumors always spread with wings. The news spread so fast! Lian Fangzhou thought to himself, and smiled with a vague "hehe", noncommittal.
It's just that the look in Niu's eyes made him more certain.
"Okay, okay, why are you still sticking around here, why don't you go to work quickly! You're being stinged by scorpions all over the place!" Zhang Lizheng said angrily.
Niu chuckled, "Then you guys are talking, I'll go first! Fangzhou, I'll go first!"
For the sake of two taels of silver, Niu felt that Lian Fangzhou was even more amiable.
Lian Fangzhou responded with a smile, saw her go out, and then talked to Zhang Lizheng again.
Zhang Lizheng's house was not spacious, so Lian Fangzhou planned to take these sacks of seeds home from the city in the afternoon and pile them up in the attic. By the way, I bought thirty or forty large sacks in the city in the afternoon and handed them over to Zhang Lizheng to pack the seeds.
After all, people from other villages sell them differently from their own. They all buy from their own villages and then send them over.
Lian Fangzhou took the opportunity to talk about the 20 mu of wasteland at the head of the village, expressing his desire to buy it.
Zhang Lizheng gave her a surprised look, but he didn't ask any further questions, and after thinking about it for a while, he agreed with a smile.
It was unowned wasteland, and it would be good to sell it to make some money for the village. Lian Fangzhou thanked him very much, and said that he would go to the county town today to talk to the local security guard Liu Jia.
This land is next to the village, so you have to tell Lizheng first, but there is no need for the thousand acres.
After these things were settled, Lian Fangzhou got up to leave, and said by the way that he would bring the money tonight.
Zhang Lizheng declined a lot, but Lian Fangzhou naturally refused.
After Lian Fangzhou left, Niu appeared out of nowhere, rolled his eyes at Zhang Lizheng and said, "You really are, he is rich now, and you still keep pushing back, why 'one tael of silver is enough!', if People really agree, there is no place for you to cry!"
"You think everyone is like you!" Zhang Lizheng glared at her and said, "I warn you, next time someone comes to the house to talk about something, you are not allowed to eavesdrop, let alone run out to make trouble!"
Niu said "Yo" twice and annoyed Zhang Lizheng. Seeing that Zhang Lizheng's face was not relaxed at all, he laughed and said, "Yes, I know, I know! It's okay if I don't eavesdrop! It's not enough to get in a stick!" While talking, he went to work.
Zhang Lizheng rubbed his forehead and smiled helplessly. She didn't know how many times she had said this, but in the end it was the same as if she hadn't said it. And he knew that the result would be the same, but he couldn't help but always talk about her every time!
This woman is hopeless!
However, the corners of Zhang Lizheng's mouth turned up slightly, and he brushed the beard on his chin very proudly. What about two taels of silver...
After Lian Fangzhou returned home, the family had lunch, and she, Lian Ze and A Jian took a rest before driving the donkey cart to the city.
When I arrived in the city, I first went to Liu Jia and told him about it. Another business came to the door, of course Liu Jia would not refuse. Moreover, Lian Fangzhou bought and sold more than 2,000 acres of land with him at once, and he didn't think it was unusual for her to buy another 20 or more acres. In the morning, people from the Yamen will be taken to measure.
Liu Jia smiled at Lian Fangzhou again: "Miss Lian, are you only buying dry land? Would you like to see paddy fields? I just got 60 acres of good quality land in your Dafang Village! I bought spring It can be planted, it’s a very good field. It’s definitely a good deal to buy!”
Lian Fangzhou was taken aback. In fact, it seems that if you want to buy it, you can buy it. The money on hand is still loose, enough for various expenses for the next year.
