…
She was so flirtatious in her heart, but her expression was like weeping with joy, saying: "Fourth Uncle, you treat me so well."
"Our family, Lici, is still very good. If you work hard, Fourth Uncle will give you other rewards." Wang Shouzhe rubbed her head with a smile and said, "For example, those delicious dried fish and so on."
snort! Even if I, Wang Lici, are a young girl, a girl still has dignity, don't think that some small dried fish can be bought...
But when the words came to his lips, his eyes became bright, and he said with relish: "Fourth Uncle, Fourth Uncle, how much can you reward?"
"You will handle the Haizhen snacks brought back from this trip." Wang Shouzhe said generously.
"Woooo~ Fourth Uncle, you are so kind to me." Wang Lici burst into tears with excitement, and looked at Wang Shouzhe tearfully, feeling that she should never slander Fourth Uncle in her heart, let alone hit him. His face is full of flowers, where can I find such a good fourth uncle
"Well, fourth uncle believes that you can handle it well, so we must distribute it to everyone fairly." Wang Shouzhe added, "Everyone in our family under the age of 20 gets a share of these snacks. You have learned nine chapters of arithmetic and accounting, right? Remember whoever receives it must sign on the ledger.”
flat! all! Minute! match!
She had to hand deliver precious snacks from door to door, how cruel, cruel!
Fourth uncle, you are too deceitful, I will fight with you...
It's a pity that after Wang Shouzhe finished giving his orders, he had already disappeared in front of her.
The girl with a few books was left alone, messed up in the wind.
…
Wang Shouzhe returned to his courtyard, did not deal with anything, but took a short rest. This time I went back and forth to Baidaowei, and I was a little tired physically and mentally.
Fortunately, the danger is over, as long as Patriarch Longyan's health recovers, the Ping'an Wang family will have a real foothold.
Nothing to say all night.
The next day, Wang Shouzhe met with his aunt Gongsunhui once, and those who should be reimbursed should be reimbursed, and those that should be put into storage should be put into storage. In short, for a large family, the accounts cannot be confused, otherwise various bad problems will arise.
Gongsun Hui was frightened by all kinds of amazing things and gains while doing the accounting. Why does Shouzhe bring unexpected surprises every time he returns from his trip.
"Auntie, I deserve the words of the first series." Wang Shouzhe said with a smile, "In terms of resources, I plan to give myself a little extravagance. The monthly supply of spiritual food will be twice as much as before. Increase to 3 pieces per month, I still need 1 Peiyuan pill every month, and a spirit stone for the time being."
As a result, Wang Shouzhe has reached an extremely extravagant and exaggerated level of resource occupation. Lingmi alone is fifteen catties a month, and spirit fish and meat are fifteen catties each.
Including the consumption of elixir and other medicines, if the spirit stone is not counted, it will reach eight or nine hundred thousand gold cultivation resources in a year.
Under normal circumstances, after he was promoted to the seventh floor of the Qi Refining Realm, his one-year training resource budget was at most two hundred dry gold, and now it is equivalent to directly quadrupling it! Four or five times the resources will not allow Wang Shouzhe to practice four or five times faster.
There is a principle of diminishing marginal effects in it. At most, it can be more than double the original speed. With the help of Lingshi, it can be faster at most, and it will definitely not reach the original three times.
Ordinary Xuanwu families, even if they cultivate the first-ranked sons, even if they go to the Lingtai realm, it is absolutely impossible for them to be so extravagant.
With such a request, even Gongsun Hui's eyes widened and he was a little surprised: "It stands to reason that with Shouzhe's meritorious service, it is not wrong to apply for so many cultivation resources. It's just that I am afraid that those clan elders who are used to frugality will be a little bit surprised. Opinion. But it doesn't matter, with Patriarch Longyan supporting you behind, no one will gossip."
A family is a family of all people, and it is not owned by the patriarch Wang Shouzhe alone. The other elders of the family can naturally express their opinions.
But Wang Shouzhe didn't care. With his ability, this family would gradually enter a stage of transformation. Besides, if the contribution system is implemented, in terms of contribution, ancestor Longyan must be the first and him second.
He even believes that his future contribution will surpass that of Longyan's ancestor.
Taking up so many resources is not because he has a dark heart, but because he really doesn't want people to have a chance to hit the altar until they are middle-aged. The most important thing is that this fantasy world is too dangerous. With his current cultivation level running around, problems will happen sooner or later.
Therefore, it is better for Gou to be safer in the family, and to speed up the progress and cultivate to the Lingtai stage to have some self-protection ability.
After the matter was agreed upon, Wang Shouzhe said again: "Auntie, what happened to the insect plague?"
He left Changningwei for ten days, and he was already behind in terms of intelligence. The situation in Baidaowei is different. There are very few fields opened up, perhaps because of the geographical isolation, but there is no disaster there.
However, food shortages are inevitable, and even the Hundred Island Guards will be affected by food shortages.
"The situation is very bad." Gongsun Hui said with a serious expression, "except for a limited number of families, the rest of the families have more or less reduced food production. But the most severely affected are the self-cultivated farmers within the sphere of influence of each city, town, and family. The ability to resist the disaster is too poor, and production is generally reduced by about 70%.”
Wang Shouzhe frowned slightly: "If the production is reduced by 70%, although the loss will be heavy, if the grain is stored and the new grain is added, it will not be difficult for the owner-cultivator to persist until the rice matures in the next season? It will not be worse than the tenant farmer."
"You don't know about Shou Zhe." Gongsun Hui explained, "First of all, let me tell you about tenant farmers. The tenant farmers' families have one to six or seven members. Let's take an ordinary tenant farmer with three members in one household and two husbands and wives to calculate. They should It can cultivate 20 mu of land, and the total value of rice and wheat in a normal year is about 600 copper. Among them, Miecong San needs about 40 copper, and cattle, farm tools, and grain seeds are amortized about 20 copper. 4-tax system, that is, 1 tax for each county and state in Zhenwei, 20 mu of fertile land requires 80 copper taxes. In this way, the remaining about 460 copper needs to be shared with the main family, that is, the tenant farmers can share the benefits of 138 copper.”
"For a family of three tenant farmers, each one has a little more money a year. After removing the daily expenses, there is nothing left." Wang Shouzhe rubbed his nose, feeling a little surprised in his heart. I have also calculated the income from the field before, but I have not carefully calculated the income of the tenant farmers.
"The reason why tenant farmers are more resistant to risks is because after all, they are still supported by the Xuanwu family." Gongsun Hui said, "In order to stabilize the tenant farmers' operations, the host family will guarantee the tenant farmers. Even if there is no harvest, there will be 60 large copper. income, so that they can farm with peace of mind."
Of course, these benefits do not refer to pure dry gold. It is the combined book value of the distributed materials and dry gold.
"In addition, tenant farmers usually raise a small amount of chickens, ducks, geese, etc., and grow some fruits and vegetables in front of and behind the house. These will be supplied to our aristocratic family, and the net income in a year can also be 20 to 30 copper." Gongsun Hui patiently explained, "During the slack season, we also organize tenant farmers to reclaim wasteland, dredge rivers, build houses, reinforce embankments, etc., and these will also have about 20 copper. Therefore, an average family of three tenants A family can have one hundred and eighty-nine coppers in a year, and even in a disaster year, it can exceed one hundred coppers."
Wang Shouzhe nodded secretly when he heard it. In this way, the life of the tenant farmers is still stable. After all, they are protected by the owner, and they can live even if they tighten their belts in disaster years. If you encounter a good year and live a more frugal life, you can save a large amount of copper.
"But the self-cultivator is different." Gongsun Hui said, "Like the tenant farmers just now, if the self-cultivator owns 20 acres of land, if the production is reduced by 70% this season, the income of this season will only be 90 big copper, and the cattle will be rented for one season 10 large coppers should be removed from the seeds, 20 large coppers should be invested in Mie Chong San, the tax is 5 taxes, and 1 tax for each of the aristocratic towns, guards, and counties. Now is the time to collect summer taxes, and 20 acres of land need to pay 50 large coppers. .how much do they have left?"
As I said before, the local Xuanwu family has the responsibility of keeping the people safe and guarding the land. If there are bandits and beasts, the family should clean up and deal with the vicious incidents, and at the same time assist the local township government to collect taxes. Therefore, the aristocratic family also pays 1 tax for the fertile land tax within the sphere of influence.
However, the Wang family's sphere of influence is very small now. Apart from the total of about 600 tenant farmers in their own farms, there are only about a thousand households left in the sphere of influence. The taxes received amounted to more than one hundred and tens of dry gold, and there was still a lot of consumption, so it can only be said that nothing is better than nothing.
"In this way, those self-cultivating farmers basically have no harvest this season?" Wang Shouzhe frowned slightly, "In this case, do we still have to collect taxes?"
"Taxes are the foundation of a country. Towns, guards, counties, and countries are all supported by taxation. Land tax is the largest tax type, and it is difficult for organizations at all levels to maintain without it." Gongsun Hui explained, "This summer harvest , the national tax in Longzuo County may be exempted. But in the end, there will still be some self-cultivating farmers who have not managed themselves well and will encounter great difficulties. At this time, some Xuanwu families will often start land mergers. "
"For example, the Zhao family and the Liu family, this time they suffered a lot from disasters and losses, and their eyes seemed to be red. There are signs that they want to take advantage of the chaos to annex some land." Gongsun Hui sneered, "A jackal is a jackal, even if it is covered The skin of an aristocratic family cannot escape its insatiable nature after all."
