I lead the system to tease the First Emperor to build infrastructure

Chapter 157

The words of thanks were endless.

Doss saw them all standing in the field and hurriedly beckoned them to go home.

Zhao Jun refused.

"We will leave after a while, and we will have time to see you later."

"Li Futian and the three brothers are still in the market and haven't come back yet."

Zhao Jun asked.

"Yes, the business on the exchange market is very good. Basically, they go to the market in the morning and come back at night."

Doss replied.

"Okay, then you guys go ahead and we'll go back."

She just wanted to take a look at it, and didn't plan to stay for a long time.

A few people left here after a while, and Doss and Aunt Wang stood and sent them away.

"Master Zhao is back, the cotton should be harvested soon."

"I see that Liu Cuihong is still blah blah, now it's a good show."

Aunt Wang couldn't hold back her smile and murmured.

After that, Zhao Jun and the others looked at the growth of cotton in other places along the way. Basically, they were all good and ready to be picked.

Later, they went to the Sheriff's Mansion again, looked at the register of cotton receipts registered at the beginning, and began to arrange the purchase matters in the future.

Another big event happened in the Northland in September. It seems that good things always happen in the Northland these few months.

Autumn is here, and it is the harvest season. Many people are secretly worried because the cotton seems to be harvested soon.

But the government has not moved, which makes the people feel a little bit worried.

As a result, the prefect's office issued a notice today!
"Hey, have you heard, it seems that Mr. Zhao is back, so this is about to start collecting."

"Really, I seem to have heard that the lord is back."

Several old ladies discussed in private.

"What are you talking about? Why don't you hurry to the Sheriff's Mansion, where there is a notice saying that cotton will be collected."

It was still the gate of the sheriff's mansion, and a notice had been posted beside it.

A lot of people have gathered around to watch.

"How do you say, what kind of acquisition method."

Many people looked in.

Finally the person in the innermost part spoke.

"It is said that it is collected by the catty, three yuan per catty of cotton."

Three dollars a catty? !
Everyone else didn't listen to the other words.

A catty of cotton costs two dollars, which is a very reasonable price.

These farmers know in their hearts that this cotton can weigh more than 100 catties per mu.

That one mu of land can have three hundred dollars!
Those with the least amount of planting have two or three acres, not to mention those with more.

Over the past few months, everyone has almost made money that they can't make in a year!

Three dollars for a catty of cotton? !
The people around are talking in their mouths.

"There are also some picking methods written on it, but I don't understand it very well."

The common people chattered, and Zhao Jun, who was standing inside, saw the scene outside.

"In this way, the cotton purchase has officially started. Now I will divide the work for everyone."

Qingliu, Fusu, Xiaohe, and Yu Zhaoyi stood in front of her with serious expressions as if they were ready for battle.

"Okay, don't be so nervous, relax."

"Qingliu, you and Xiao He will go down to the gate and share with the common people how to pick cotton."

"And the most important thing is to let them take out the black seeds in the cotton, which are the seeds."

"Then the place where we officially buy and weigh is not at the sheriff's office, but at the cotton workshop. You ask them to send the finished cotton there, and we will buy it there."

"Okay, I'm fine my lord."

Qingliu said with certainty that she has done this job many times.

"Of course I believe you, but this is the first time for Xiao He, you take him with you."

"My lord, I have no problem."

He still has this ability.

"Okay, I know, and then Governor Yu, you send some people directly to Tiantian to guide the people to pick. I will show you how to pick later."

"Qingliu, when you're done here, you can assist Governor Yu."

Yu Zhaoyi nodded quickly.

Qingliu also expressed his understanding.

"In the end, it's me and Fusu."

As soon as Zhao Jun finished speaking, he was about to go to see Fusu when he met his excited eyes.

It's my turn, it's my turn.

Fusu was very excited, this was the first time he was assigned a task.

Zhao Jun laughed, but didn't say anything.

"You and I prepare together in the cotton workshop. When the cotton arrives, you will be responsible for weighing it on the scales and registering and paying."

"Ok, no problem."

Fusu responded loudly.

She laughed again, she was still a child.

"Okay, it's all right, this operation is called the Cotton War, everyone begins to act!"

Zhao Jun was also attracted by Fusu, so it was rare for him to be naive.

After she finished speaking, she felt childish by herself.

Sure enough, the person next to him who started to act couldn't hold back a smirk.

Among them, Xiao He laughed the loudest.

Just as Zhao Jun wanted to find fault with him, he quickly slipped away.

The enthusiastic people who were discussing outside saw the people coming out of the sheriff's mansion, and they all gathered around.

Qingliu began to explain without any stage fright, and Xiao He quickly followed the rhythm.

Many onlookers recognized Qingliu, and believed even more in their hearts that it was Mr. Zhao who came to have such a good thing.

Zhao Jun sneaked a look at the two people who were orderly in front from behind, and nodded secretly.

"Let's go, Fusu, it's time for us to work."

The two began to walk towards the cotton workshop.

The news outside the Sheriff's Mansion quickly spread across the Northland like flying.

Everyone's face is full of smiles.

If the establishment of the mutual market only provides a way out for those businessmen and bold people.

Then cotton has made ordinary people taste the sweetness even more.

Aunt Wang who heard the news was about to go crazy with joy.

Her family has a whole nine acres of land, how much does it cost.

Although her son now earns money by selling things, how can the things in the field be solid.

Nine acres of land, nine acres of land!
Aunt Wang happily went around in her yard.

But Liu Cuihong next to her was not so happy.

Her family's land was originally scarce, and now it is not growing well. The purchase price is so high, she is at a great disadvantage.

How happy Aunt Wang was, Liu Cuihong almost gritted her teeth with envy.

"Aunt Wang, let's go to the field to pick cotton as soon as possible. It will take a few days until we finish picking it."

Doss stood on the other side and shouted at Aunt Wang.

"Hey, good, good, but I don't know how to pick it. I haven't gone there to inquire about it yet."

"Auntie, I know, you can go with us, there are people from the government over there to teach you."

Doss said enthusiastically, already carrying the basket on his back.

"Okay, then let's go."

As soon as Aunt Wang heard the turmoil, she also hurried out.

Immediately, the land in the Northland was full of working people again.

The Guanwai people and Tubo people in the exchange market have been a little strange these two days.

It seems that there are fewer people in the exchange market than usual.

No one has come to that particularly delicious skewer shop for three days.

Did something happen?

These people were puzzled and quietly went to inquire.
