I traveled through time and space to hunt and support my family in ancient times

Zhai Qingya ate a bowl of wontons.

Jiang Yue frowned and said, "Have you been to my house to look for me? My parents are very timid, so don't scare them."

Zhai Qingya sighed: "Am I so scary? I lived and ate with you at that time, and I never heard you say that your parents were timid."

Jiang Yue rolled her eyes and said, "Master Zhai, can you please be more careful with your words? We are eating and living together. I don't want a good reputation at such a young age."

Zhai Qingya said generously: "If I ruin your reputation, I will take responsibility."

As he said this, he reached out the wooden spoon to scoop up the wontons in Jiang Yue's bowl, but Jiang Yue dodged it quickly.

Zhai Qingya said, "Give me one. I just finished my work today and didn't have time to eat lunch. I'm very hungry now."

Jiang Yue: Are you pretending to be pitiful again? Do you know she will fall for it?

Jiang Yue smiled and said, "If you're hungry, just cook another bowl."

Zhai Qingya laughed again: "I will be full after eating one more. Isn't it a waste to cook a bowl?"

Jiang Yue's face darkened. Is this a shameless act?

"You won't die from hunger."

Zhai Qingya sighed and said, "Can't you treat me as your big brother and hug me? From now on, I will be in charge of the county and I will be in charge of you."

Jiang Yue smiled brightly, "Mr. County Magistrate is such a high-ranking official, have you paid back the gold beads you owe me?"

Zhai Qingya took a deep breath. He felt deeply that this little girl was obsessed with money.

"I'll personally deliver it to your home some other day."

"Don't scare my family."

"Do I look that scary?"

After he finished speaking, he was about to leave as he still had things to deal with today. Now that he was here, there was still a long time to come and there was no need to rush.

Jiang Yue rested her elbows on the table and rubbed her forehead. Why did she feel like trouble was coming?

Jiang Yue carried the turtle and wandered to the clothing store, where she bought a whole set of cotton-padded clothes as if they were free. The shop owner was grinning from ear to ear, and seeing that she bought a lot, he even called the waiter to send her a carriage.

This is the God of Wealth, you must give it to him as a gift.

After shopping in the clothing store, I remembered that I didn’t have much food at home, so I went to the grain store to buy some, and then bought some books and paper.

Of course, I didn’t forget to buy a small water tank in the end.

The backyard wall reached up to his calves, and Jiang Yue stopped Jiang Youshan: "Dad, let's not build the wall anymore. This way we can have a mark to show where our home is."

Jiang Youshan asked: "What will Dad do in the future?"

After asking, I felt that it seemed as if Jiang Yue was the father and he was the son.

“Buy land.”

Jiang Yue waved her hand and took Jiang Youshan to find the head of the village.

"What, your family still wants to buy land?"

The head of the village twirled his beard, the Jiang family had become prosperous.

He unfolded his map and showed it to the father and daughter. Here, here, and here are all wastelands. How much do you think it will take?

Jiang Yue asked: "How big is the land on this road to the east of my house?"

"Such a large piece of wild land, connected to Xiaocui Village, is at least eighty acres."

"That's it."

"What?"

Li Zheng straightened his eyes and looked at Jiang Youshan who was standing aside and didn't say much. It seemed as if he was asking Jiang Youshan, is your family really letting a child make the decisions?

Li Zheng advised generously: "This is too much. You can't even finish reclaiming it."

Once you buy land, you have to pay land tax. If you don't reclaim such a large piece of land and plant crops quickly, the annual land tax will be quite high.

Jiang Youshan has been farming for half his life and has an inexplicable love for land. He is naturally happy that his daughter bought such a large piece of land. But this, 80 acres? He really can't handle it.

"My girl, how about buying less wasteland? Or buy some good farmland?"

Although farmland is more expensive than wasteland, it is more convenient. You can plant it the same year you buy it, and you will get a harvest after planting it.

"Okay, listen to my father and buy some more good land. Grandpa Lizheng, if there is anyone selling land in the village, please let my father know."

Jiang Youshan was obviously relieved. His daughter still gave him face.

Jiang Yue glanced at his father and said, "We're going to take this piece of wasteland too. It's not winter yet and everyone in our village is free. Grandpa Lizheng, please tell the villagers that we're hiring someone to reclaim our wasteland. The price is 100 coins per mu."

An acre of wasteland costs 500 wen, and an acre of inferior land costs two taels. It is a good deal to hire someone to reclaim the wasteland for 100 wen.

"Okay, you are amazing, even better than your brother. If you are sure you want it, let's ask someone to measure the land."

The large piece of wasteland to the east of the village was measured to be 82 acres in total. One acre of wasteland cost 500 coins, so more than 40 taels of silver were taken out in one go.

Jiang Yue asked someone to mark the wasteland acre by acre. This way it would be convenient if someone came to open up the wasteland. It would prevent some cunning people from picking some good places to open up the wasteland and collecting a lot here and there to make up an acre. This way, once an acre of land is selected, it cannot be changed, making it easier for his father to manage.

The village head sent the land deed the next day and said, "Youshan, why don't you treat them to a home-cooked meal before hiring them to reclaim the wasteland? It doesn't have to be too nice, just let everyone in our village know that you are hiring workers to reclaim the wasteland, and they will work harder when the time comes."

Jiang Youshan slapped his head and said, "Uncle Lizheng, you are really thoughtful. I will prepare it now. It's too late today. How about tomorrow?"

The head of the village twisted his beard and said, "Okay, it's settled. I'll notify someone to go!"

There was no shortage of vegetables in the village. Jiang Yue glanced at the four fat pigs in the pen. They were well raised by Cai and two of them had already grown fangs.

"Mom and Dad, let's not buy meat. How about we kill a pig?" I have to say, wild boar meat tastes better than the pork I had in my previous life.

Life at home was getting better and better, and they no longer had to rely on these four pigs to support the family. Cai replied happily, "Okay, just kill the biggest one, and keep the others to feed until the New Year. They can still grow a lot bigger."

Jiang Youshan had no objection and immediately called the village butcher to kill the pig.

The butcher was fat and strong, and spoke in a friendly manner, but his wife came with him.

As soon as the woman came in, she looked around and didn't help with the work. She ran to Cai's room to take a look. She said enthusiastically but her eyes were all on the table. The feast in this family must be very good.

Cai was busy with her work and only politely asked her to turn around.

She was really rude and went into the house alone.

Jiang Yue was unhappy and coughed. The woman felt as if a cold gaze was cutting her like a knife, and she ran to the butcher in fear.

The butcher knew his wife's character and vaguely guessed what was going on. Jiang Youshan's family was different now. He scolded his wife and told her to go back home.

The woman knew that this family was not easy to mess with, so she pouted her lips, said hello to Cai in the room, and left.

The butcher was embarrassed and apologized to Jiang Youshan, "Don't blame me for being ignorant of etiquette."

Jiang Youshan just said it was okay, but he was thinking in his heart, otherwise my family would never go to your house to buy meat.

It took a long time to kill the pig, bleed it, scrape the hair and chop the meat.

When the butcher left, he didn't ask for money, but only for ten pounds of meat.
