Bring your aunt to eat big meat, the scumbag father's family is furious
Chapter 451 She Wants to Take Our Land
However, several people said that if they want to be busy, they should be busy together, and if they want to play, they should play together.
Qiao Jianer: "I just think it's hard to go there."
"It's not hard at all. It's so pleasant to ride a horse in the fiefdom. We can also expand the business here, which is a great thing for our Qiao family." Qiao Zhizhi said, and when she saw the servant leading the Ferghana horse, she climbed up.
"Miss Qiao, although the people in the fiefdom are considered your subjects, they grew up in the capital and have their own opinions. They may not completely listen to you. If there are more people, they will not dare to act presumptuously." Pei Zhujin said as he got on his horse.
"Let's go."
Qiao Jianer murmured in her heart, Pei Zhujin always faced those important things calmly, he said this, are those people really that cunning?
I went to the fiefdom yesterday.
Seeing that Pei Shijiu brought thirty guards, each of them equipped with a good sword, the veins on Qiao Lianer's forehead throbbed.
"Bringing so many people makes it seem like I'm extorting money and suppressing people. Seven or eight followers would be enough. This will easily lead to misunderstandings among the people."
"Little girl, the people near the capital are not so easy to deal with. Some of them are troublemakers. Once they are provoked, it is easy to cause trouble."
"You're asking them to plant your things, but for them, that's like digging up their roots. The number of people I brought is not enough."
Seeing that he didn't look like he was joking at all, Qiao Jianer couldn't help but prepare herself mentally.
The Pei family is a century-old family rooted in the capital, and of course they know more about the capital and its surroundings than she does.
There are more than forty villages within the hundred-li territory. The largest village is called Shiquan Village, which is located entirely on the plain and surrounded by endless rice fields.
Convince the largest village first, and then it will be easier to move forward with the other villages.
The team followed a large carriage, which contained the things to be planted, including Wuchang rice, Yuzhenxiang grain seeds, and various medicinal herbs.
Things like tomatoes, potatoes, corn, and peanuts have gradually spread across the country. When there are too many things, it is easy to form bidding, resulting in lower profits. Qiao Jianer just plants them in space and uses them to exchange for gold coins.
However, in order to prevent others from getting her rice seeds, she sold the ground white rice. When the rice in her fiefdom was grown, she did not sell the rice but the white rice, so that she could form a monopoly.
Vegetables don’t matter, but rice is the basis of survival, and she must have it in her hands.
Two people were sent first to deliver the message. When they arrived at Shiquan Village, the village head, several white-haired elders, and villagers who could usually discuss matters were waiting at the village entrance.
They heard that the owner of Qingfengyuan had changed to a thirteen-year-old girl, so they were very curious.
Not only the head of the village and the elders, but also the villagers were peeking in at the gate of the courtyard, very curious.
They discussed it privately.
"A thirteen-year-old girl may have some clever ideas and become a county lord, but does she know how to manage such a large fiefdom?"
"Don't give clueless instructions and create chaos here. Oh, and please don't increase taxes."
When they heard the word taxation, everyone else looked wary.
Taxation in the capital region has always been heavy, especially during this war against the northern tribal alliance, where most of the grain was requisitioned as military rations. Now every household is living a tight life.
Fortunately, the spring planting season has arrived and the war has been won, and everyone feels that there is hope for the future again.
There is a new owner here, and it is still a system of promotion to kingship, so taxes have to be paid to the county lord, which is a factor that makes them uneasy.
Seeing the person arrive, He Lizheng stepped forward and bowed.
"Shiquan Village is honored to have you all here."
Pei Zhujin raised his hand and gestured towards Qiao Jianer, "This is the Princess of Dingxiang County who manages this fiefdom."
He Lizheng saluted Qiao Jianer again and looked at her quickly and carefully.
I was a little surprised. There was heroism and wisdom in the girl's eyes. Her eyes seemed to be able to see through people, as if they contained the soul of an adult.
"He Lizheng, we are tired. I wonder if we can borrow your pot to cook a meal." Qiao Jianer said with a smile.
"We brought rice, grain, vegetables and meat."
He Lizheng was surprised that these nobles actually wanted to come to his house, a commoner's, to make fire and cook.
He thought he was going to get a lecture at first, but he didn't expect to smell fireworks as soon as he arrived.
He immediately said cheerfully, "I couldn't ask for more. I'm honored to have you here. Please come in, everyone."
I thought I could just use the food and vegetables from my own home, but then I realized that the food brought by the nobles must be of much higher quality, so I decided not to export it.
Most houses in the north are square courtyards, but He Lizheng's home is relatively spacious.
There were also two cooks accompanying them. As soon as the carriage stopped in front of the door, they took out the rice, vegetables and meat and started processing them.
After a while, a rich aroma of rice wafted out from the kitchen and penetrated into the lungs.
He Lizheng was talking to the guests about the situation in Shiquan Village and couldn't help but sniff: "What kind of rice is this? It smells so delicious."
"This is called Wuchang rice, and it tastes much better than ordinary rice," said Qiao Jianer.
"I've never heard of Wuchang rice. Is it a new variety?"
"Yes, it came from abroad. I have some grain seeds that are even tastier than the grain specially supplied to the emperor, and they can be sold at a higher price."
He Lizheng seemed to be thinking about something.
"I'm afraid this is not something that ordinary people can afford."
"If we promote this rice cultivation and select the best quality rice for the imperial grain supply, feeding the palace and the nobles, the price will be several times higher than ordinary rice, making a lot of money. The rest can be sold to ordinary people. As long as the planting area is large, more and more people will be able to taste this rice."
Seeing Qiao Jianer explain in such detail, He Lizheng vaguely confirmed his guess.
"Good rice is certainly worth growing, but County Master, I wonder what the yield per mu of this Wuchang rice can be?"
"With the help of some auxiliary fertilizers like manure, the yield per mu can reach 300 kilograms. If the situation is better, it can reach 400 kilograms."
The land in the northern plains is fertile, and the yield per mu can still reach very ideal results.
So many? He Lizheng was very surprised, and the white-haired elders looked at each other in disbelief.
At this time, the rice was cooked and a chef served out a large bowl.
"Everyone try it."
The rice grains in the bowl were plump, white and fragrant. He Lizheng and the elders took a bite and found them soft, sticky and chewy, with the fragrance lingering between their lips and teeth, making them reluctant to swallow them.
For a moment, there was a burst of exclamations.
The villagers gathered at the door were wary and whispered to each other.
"She wants to take our land." Someone said, "Go grow her crops."
