MTL - A Scumbag Father Doting on His Concubine-Chapter 34 Xie Yunshu's plan
Xie Yunshu laughed again: "It's okay if no one in Zhuangzi knows this. With the Marquis of Pingbei, it's possible that we can't find out who is good at this, and can we invite someone to teach? Mushrooms grow fast, basically all You can harvest a crop in ten days, and if you keep warm in the cave properly, you can grow mushrooms in winter, but the speed may be slower. In this way, we earn more, and you also have more, what do you think?"
She herself has some common sense in this area, let's discuss it together when the time comes.
Steward Tang was stunned, and laughed for a moment: "Miss is really, really a good idea. It's just that this matter may not be easy to say, so let's look at it again. Otherwise, it will be a waste of Missy's capital, and it will be wrong."
Xie Yunshu giggled: "Don't worry about this, Tang Guanshi, I naturally thought about it before I spoke. I'm not new to these things, and I'm not behind closed doors!"
Steward Tang smiled even more reluctantly: "Miss is very capable."
Xie Yunshu didn't expect to settle down right now, she smiled and didn't say any more, rested enough and continued walking.
She was not interested in climbing again, so she descended from the other side of the mountain.
After going down the mountain, there was a dam. Xie Yunshu's eyes lit up again, pointing at Tang Guanshi and smiling, "Tang Guanshi, look at this reservoir. The water area of this reservoir is wide, it's too wasteful, it can completely raise fish!"
Tang Xuyan laughed when she heard this, "Miss doesn't know, there are a lot of fish here!"
Ding Cuixia: "Yes, yes! Every year—"
Steward Tang couldn't care less about the mouths of the two girls and hurriedly interrupted: "Missy doesn't know something, and raising fish is not so easy, so it needs to be considered in the long run. I think the plums over there should be ripe. Xuyan, Cuixia Go and pick a few for the eldest lady to try out, hurry up."
Steward Tang pushed the two girls while talking, and gave them a look with their backs turned.
The two girls were a little scared and puzzled, but they also understood what father (Uncle Tang) meant by not allowing him to speak in front of the young lady, so they agreed and ran to pick plums.
"Speaking of plums," Xie Yunshu said casually, "the fruit trees planted in the orchard of our village are too mixed. I checked the account books and found that they are so messy. No wonder they can't sell for a good price. From now on, we will mainly grow persimmons, peaches and watermelons. Right. Peaches are available in the market at the beginning of summer, watermelons can be sold in summer, persimmons can be sold fresh, and can also be made into persimmon cakes. Are you right, Manager Tang?"
Steward Tang was almost autistic, "What Missy said sounds reasonable. It's just that the original fruit trees have to be cut down, isn't it a pity? The tenants are probably reluctant. Besides, even if they replanted Yes, it doesn’t necessarily mean that the harvest will be good and the price will be good, and it will take several years to bear fruit, if the tenants make a scene, it’s not right, and won’t it be detrimental to the dignity of the Marquis Mansion?”
Steward Tang was very annoyed, and hated Xie Yunshu for being troublesome.
The majestic Miss of the Hou Mansion, is such a big Pingbei Hou Mansion still short of such a little output? Why should the young lady keep staring at this prospect?
Xie Yunshu smiled: "The tenants didn't understand, so Tang Guanshi explained it to them carefully. Since I planned it this way, I didn't mess around. This is my Zhuangzi, and I hope it will be better than anyone else!"
Steward Tang laughed with him.
Continue walking along the dam, at the foot of the mountain is an orchard with plums and apricots.
The fruit setting situation is worrying.
The ground is quite clean, and the weeds have been cleared away, which shows that the tenants are still very diligent.
It's just that the variety is not good, and they don't know how to prune branches and thin flowers. I'm afraid they don't even know how to fertilize. It's strange that this fruit tree can grow well.
It's totally up to the sky to eat.
Tang Xuyan and Ding Cuixia quickly picked a lot of plums and came over. The surface of the dark red plums was covered with a layer of hoarfrost. Before they could eat, they smelled a faint sour taste unique to plums. I like the sour taste, so I picked one that was barely mature and took a bite. "It's still a little sour, it seems that it will take a while to mature! It looks quite big."
Ding Cuixia smiled and said: "That's right, the plums on our Zhuangzi grow very big. Everyone said that our fruit trees are good and the soil is fertile!"
Xie Yunshu thought it was sour, but they didn't. Everyone divided it up and ate it all.
Steward Tang looked up at the sky, and said with a smile, "Miss, it's almost noon, why don't you go back first? Zhuangzi is so big that you can't finish shopping in a while. Besides, it's almost the same if you go forward, whether it's a mountain or a valley. There is nothing to go shopping. It would be bad if the young lady is tired. The weather is hot this season, and there are a lot of poisonous snakes and poisonous insects and ants in the wild. "
If she was really a spoiled young lady of the Hou Mansion, she would never come to such a place, and these words were enough to scare her off.
However, Xie Yunshu is not a native of the Hou family.
After hearing this, she laughed and said, "Thank you, Manager Tang, for your concern! Manager Tang has a heart. When I was in our hometown, my mother and grandma followed the adults to work in the mountains. I am not afraid of these, I will be careful. Yes Well, isn’t there a lot of sheep raised in the village? Where is it? Take me to have a look.”
Steward Tang was unhappy, so he had no choice but to agree, and led Xie Yunshu to move on.
The melon-eating system has already told Xie Yunshu that the place where the sheep are raised is not far ahead, and there are thousands of sheep raised in this village! Every year they only donated about thirty heads to the Hou Mansion, and bought the rest for a penny.
Of course, Steward Tang and the other two second stewards got the most share, followed by the junior stewards, and every household of the tenants also got a share.
Ask about the price of sheep in the eating melon system, Xie Yunshu roughly calculated that the income from this item alone, the tenant family alone can earn at least twelve or thirty taels of silver a year!
Not to mention the stewards.
For example, Tang Guanshi, he can get at least two hundred taels just for the income from selling sheep.
Anything else? They built four large fish ponds, and planted medicinal materials such as salvia miltiorrhiza, astragalus, rhubarb, and wrinkled ager in places where there are few people.
and other odds and ends of income.
Where is Weiziling a barren and difficult place? It is clearly a place of treasure!
The life of the tenants is very easy. Which family does not earn three or forty taels of silver a year?
On the surface, it seems that they paid the rent seriously, and took care of the orchard seriously, but other than that, they just put all the other income from the village into their own pockets. inside!
All of this was led by Tang Guanshi.
He is their brain trust, all ideas come from him.
While being annoyed, Xie Yunshu really admired him.
To be able to sneakily create such a climate in the Zhuangzi of the master’s house without letting the master find out, I have to say that this person really has something.
