Chapter 315 Giving things to people
Sometimes people are so weird.
I've seen it before, and I feel flat, but in an instant, I feel close to him.
Master Tian was so heavy from eating that he walked among the temporary sheds in the village with everyone.
During dinner, the villagers of Xiao'an Village showed their excellent craftsmanship.
There is nothing like meat for a farmer.
All kinds of meat are served in turn for this meal, not to mention the common poultry, roe deer in the mountains, frogs in the fields, and **** in the river made soup...
It can only be said that everyone in Xiao'an Village has a pair of eyes to discover food.
Yan's second son has more contacts with the villagers, so don't be too relaxed when you take your future teacher to the eating shed.
The more Mr. Tian looked at him, the more pleasing he was. He could easily tell the difference between the people of Xiao'an Village and the two brothers of the Yan family.
For Yan Hushu, they are in awe and admiration, and for Yan Er, they are close and trustful.
Occasionally behind his back, the old man would do some little poking and cooing moves, which made people laugh.
Treat people with sincerity, you need to treat people with sincerity.
Yan's family is really good.
…
"The servants recruited by Huju before have all returned home, and the manpower that I can recruit now is probably only the criminals exiled here." Mr. Tian said slowly.
Yan Huaiwen listened attentively, not talking much.
It was he who proposed to Master Tian to let the exiles help them move stones and build walls.
After staying in Xiao'an Village for a day, Mr. Lai Tian had made up his mind.
"The quarry has heavy tasks, so we can only send some old and weak people here."
Yan Huaiwen was satisfied, and said in harmony: "Thank you for your compassion."
Yan's second child was listening.
He knows everything about exiled people and criminals, so he sends the old and the weak to work? Okay ah? Are you sure they can do it?
He tried to recall what he had seen and heard in the quarry before.
Can't think of anything, after all, every time he passed by, he didn't go deep into the periphery, and the quarry was huge, so he really didn't see many people except the officers and guards.
"There is one more thing to do on this trip." Master Tian paused: "That is the reward for beheading Bei Rong."
"I have negotiated with Xue Zongqi. He can give the head money the same as Yongning, but there is a condition." He was a little embarrassed when he said this, and his voice softened a little: "If the person who killed the bandit is willing to enter If the tiger is in the garrison, all the rewards will be made up, and the head can also accumulate military merits."
He gave those present time to digest the message.
The village elders were startled.
Village Chief Luo asked hesitantly: "If you dare to ask the elder, what if you don't go?"
"Then we can only follow Huju's usual practice." Mr. Tian comforted: "Don't feel wronged, it's the same for several border towns, the money didn't go into anyone's pocket, it was mostly for the construction of border defenses use."
After he explained it like this, the hearts of the old men opened up.
"Since it has always been like this, we didn't say anything, so let's do it this way." Village Chief Luo said.
Master Tian nodded, then turned to Yan Huaiwen and said, "In addition to the head money, there is also a reward. I originally planned to give money, but what I saw today, Xiao'an Village needs a lot of lime and gypsum to build walls and watchtowers. , you can have one more choice, to offset the reward, I can exchange this reward for these two things."
"I would like to exchange the reward silver for lime and plaster." Yan Huaiwen replied without hesitation.
There are indeed scattered items for sale in the shop, but the quantity will never be large. The amount needed by Xiaoan Village is not a small amount. If you buy it with real money, I am afraid that the rewards from the government are not enough.
This is obviously an act of Mr. Tian to subsidize Xiao'an Village.
Yan Huaiwen also understood in his heart that it is okay to send some people to work, but not to give things.
For those who are superior, no matter how they are in private, at least on the surface they still have to be level, so that people cannot perceive bias.
Mr. Tian nodded and said: "Liang Hushu, you have worked **** the matter of putting the autumn grain into the warehouse. This year, the sickle will be opened early this year, and there is plenty of time. I am close to Yongning, so there is no need to rush. Everything can be done step by step according to the rules. .”
Liang Manshan said solemnly: "Yes, my lord."
After the autumn grain enters the warehouse, there is no need to rush to send it to Yongning, but because there is plenty of time, there is no room for mistakes.
The time is tight and the tasks are heavy. It can also be said that mistakes were made during the busy schedule. This year, the sickle was started early, and there is enough time. If there are any mistakes, it will be difficult to explain.
Besides, Mr. Tian and Brother Huaiwen are going to Gufeng.
His account book seems to be the person in charge of grain and taxation, and he is under a lot of pressure.
Master Tian gave a few words of encouragement to the village elders, and then returned to Huju.
Yan Huaiwen and Liang Manshan drove each other off.
The sheds at the big rocks were slowly packed up, and each family began to pack up their stalls and go home.
Yan's family is an exception.
Yan's second son Zhangluo provided the meals for Mr. Tian in the courtyard, and Nanny Rong supported the shed outside.
Other dishes are gone, only the tofu Yan’s has ordered a lot, except for cutting a few pieces for people in the village who want to eat, the rest, originally planned to make all of them into dried tofu, and they can be kept for a few more days.
But the oiled tofu is really delicious, especially after Mammy Rong brushed the seasoning and handed it to Li Xuemei.
Li Xuemei didn't eat much at night, Master Tian's food was delicious, and her appetite was average. Except for sauerkraut, peeling and dipping pickles, she didn't eat anything.
Fried tofu was quite to her liking, but she didn't expect Mr. Tian to like it too, so she didn't have the nerve to stick out her chopsticks.
Seeing that the second aunt of the Yan family took small bites of skewered tofu and ate deliciously.
Wu Tie couldn't move his eyes.
Looking at his gluttonous appearance, Li Xuemei couldn't help laughing, and gave him a skewered fried tofu.
Wu Tie, besides being able to cry and howl, has too many facial expressions when eating.
Using his own little face, he vividly interprets what is delicious and delicious.
Therefore, more gluttons stayed away, staring at the second aunt of the Yan family with longing eyes.
Li Xuemei: …
I had to give each of them a bunch.
Yan Yu thought she was full at first, but when she saw the tofu skewers, her stomach felt quite full and she felt that she could still eat.
Like the children around, big and small, she waited patiently for four, then ran to send one to her eldest brother and sister, and then took the remaining two to share with her father.
"Father, it's a good thing you didn't go to see the old man. The old man is cute. If you go, the old man will be fine on the way back. If you want to see your level, it will be miserable."
Yan Er Er lamented: "I hope Mr. Tian can feel Daddy's enthusiasm, and he can raise his hand in the future!"
Yan Yule couldn't help it: "Father, the old man must have felt it. You didn't look at your uncle several times, and you must have felt it deeply!"
Yan Laoer nodded seriously: "Your uncle must think that I have done a good job. The old man is a guest from afar, and he sent people to work for us, and even gave us things in a different way. He couldn't be more enthusiastic."
"You are very good at this speed today, dad, you are kind and not obsequious." Yan Yu praised.
Yan Laoer gave her a positive look: "My daughter is also very good, I heard that today I will help your elder brother to get ahead, that's all, you are still young, you are fine, your elder brother is already in his teens , children of this age, face is more important than anything else."
As soon as Li Xuemei came over, she heard the two bragging.
Coughed lightly, and asked, "Do you need to make some preparations tonight?"
