Back To The Beginning Of Ming To Do Charity

Land sales are under the control of the government, but the officials at the top actually don’t care about these trivial matters. They are in the hands of the little officials below. The little officials are literate people who have not read the sage books. Their salary is low, and they are basically filled by exploiting the lower classes Purse.

It took one hundred taels to buy land, and another ten taels to bribe small officials.

The little official was a Han, and he spoke Chinese. Although he had a slight southern accent, Lin Yuan could still understand him.

"That piece of land is good." The little official called Jiang Gui, and he stubbornly said, "Although it is a wasteland, it is fat. I also see you sincerely."

Lin Yuan was very flexible and stretched, and then handed the little official a note with a hundred text on it: "I don't know if there are any big families around."

Jiang Gui looked at Lin Yuan on the Dao with a good attitude, coupled with his young age, and a smile on his face, he also made a lot of money, and his tone became affectionate: "I think you are young, I will choose the land for you. They are far away, so be careful, don’t make trouble."

"But if it's cold today, if you want to build a house, you will have to wait until the beginning of the spring for the foundation to be deepened." Jiang Gui, "I don't usually tell people this. It depends on your young age and cheerfulness. , Just tell you a few words."

Lin Yuan bowed his hands: "Thank you, sir."

Jiang Gui waved his hand: "I'm a small official, where can I be called an adult? Just call me Brother Jiang. If you have anything to come to me, I will live in Tongluo Alley. The third house is my house."

Lin Yuan was kind enough: "Don't dare to talk about Brother Jiang."

"Where do you live on weekdays?" Jiang Gui got a bribe of twelve hundred wen, and he was in a good mood. His monthly salary was consistent, and he liked wine and meat on weekdays. Not to mention, these twelve taels are enough for him to stay away for two or three months.

Lin Yuan: "Living in a guest restaurant in the north of the city."

Jiang Gui thought for a while: "In this way, I have a neighbor, his family moved to Jiangnan last year, but the house was not sold. He left an old servant guarding the door. I told his relatives, you move and rent. What do you think about collecting monthly?"

Lin Yuan hesitated: "I just bought the land now. I don't have much money on hand..."

"You call me Brother Sheng, I still tell you that you can't make it?" Jiang Gui waved his hand, "The monthly rent is two consistent. You can live in it, but the spring will start in March."

It is indeed not that many. Lin Yuan has also inspected the housing price market in Wucheng these days. The price is high, but Tongluo Alley is a lively area. There are everything for sale nearby. Life is convenient. The price is not lost. .

"Then thank you Jiang, when do you think I will move in?"

Jiang Gui: "It's okay to move today. I'm just letting go. You will wait for me then, and I will take you there."

After the agreement, Lin Yuan did not give the banknotes, nor did Jiang Gui ask. Anyway, they did it after they passed. Although Jiang Gui was greedy for money, he knew that he could not eat up the fat in one bite.

The little boy knew that Lin Yuan had found the house and quickly packed up his things. He was very excited and in a good mood: "I have to buy things for the young master. I didn't bring the four treasures of the study. I need to reset it! The spittoon, neither I know if there is any over there, let me say, the young master should buy a girl, some work, the girl is careful."

"Isn't there?" Lin Yuan said, "just the mother and son before."

He asked the mother and son to be placed in the ruined temple first, and the old quilt was also used by them, until he found a house before picking it up.

Boys can do something capable, and mothers can clean the house and cook for them by the way.

Although Lin Yuan is not like the original owner, he did not touch Yang Chunshui with his fingers, but he lived in the city since he was a child and only used natural gas. Now this kind of stove really doesn't work, and the young man can't cook.

Lin Yuan was willing to buy them and give them food, clothes and clothes, but he couldn't do good deeds and raise people well and do them lazily. That is not doing good deeds, but asking the ancestors to go home.

People have a job, and only when they earn what they need in life can they have a sense of belonging.

"Master is still smart." The young man patted his forehead, "Why didn't I expect it!"

Lin Yuan smiled and said, "Then you are the young master."

Lin Yuan had a smile on his face, and he was still a little unsure. He only had two hundred taels. During this time, he lived in a restaurant and bought ready-made clothes. The daily expenses were counted together. He spent close to two taels of silver. This is still in his hands. Case.

It took one hundred taels to buy land, eleven taels for bribes, and eighty-seven taels for the rest, and eighty-one taels for renting the house for three months.

It takes at least fifty taels to build a bigger house.

The tenants plant the land, but he wants to provide seeds and farm tools...

You have to find a place to get the money, otherwise, even if all the seed and farm tools are ready, what do the tenants eat? Farming is not planted on the same day, and you can harvest the next day. Can't everyone drink the northwest wind together to make the day?

These days, trading is the fastest to get money, but it is troublesome to get a commercial registration. It is not a problem of not taking the imperial examination. The main reason is that the tax is too heavy. Now it is still a few years before the uprising in the world. You can’t walk around at will, you have to bring guides when you go to other places, and ask for paperwork in the government, which is a lot of trouble.

In the Yuan Dynasty, the local master was the happiest profession, not one of them.

Zhu Yuanzhang’s wife, Ma Dajiao was the landlord’s daughter. In the early days of Zhu Yuanzhang, he made a fortune with the horse landlord. Otherwise, where would the money come from?

People usually go to work at 7:00 in the morning. In fact, it was originally only the time for officials to go to court. Maoshi refers to this time period. Later, it became common. It was called Yingmao at work and Fangya after get off work.

Lin Yuan and Xiao Si packed all their things, left the room, and waited at the door of the office early.

"This house is cleaned up, and the old servant cleans it every day. Because you are here, I asked the old servant to go to his relatives." Jiang Gui opened the door. "There is a well in the street, and I always fetch water there. "

Lin Yuan looked around in the house and was very satisfied. This house is not big. Once in and out, there is a main room, a penthouse, and a wood room. The wood room has no walls, but a shed with a stove. There is a cellar, although it is small, it is enough to store rations for small families.

The main room is a general room. The curtain separates two spaces. One side is used for hospitality and eating, and the other is the master bedroom. There is a bed and furniture. It is a bit like a modern one-bedroom, and it is quite large.

The penthouse is smaller, about the same size as a normal bedroom, and it has a bed, but it has no furniture and can accommodate two adults on the bed.

Lin Yuan paid the rent for three months neatly.

Jiang Gui looked at the banknotes, thinking about the money he could draw out, and was very satisfied.

"I'll be a neighbor from now on, just ask me for something." Jiang Gui picked up the money and smiled sincerely.

Lin Yuan said quickly: "Brother Jiang, I want to discuss something with you! Come, let's sit down and say, two or two, go and pour two glasses of water."

The young man's name is Erliang: "Just go."

Jiang Gui sat on the chair, a little strange: "What's the matter?"

Lin Yuan had a very good attitude: "Brother Jiang also knows that I am not wealthy in my hands. I have to build a house in the spring. There are many places to spend money, but there is no place to make money."

When Jiang Gui heard this, he sighed: "You are asking the wrong person. If I have a way, I still earn this hard money?"

"It's said that strong dragons don't suppress the snakes." Lin Yuan flattered. "Although the people think that the official is in charge, but I know that it is Jiang Brothers who are really in charge, where is the official superior? Knowing that the people’s livelihood is suffering, isn’t it up to you to manage?

Jiang Gui felt that these words were smooth: "You can't say that. You can't say this when you go out. We all depend on the official to live."

Lin Yuan: "Here is our brothers. There is nothing that can't be said. What the younger brother said is all from the bottom of his heart, without any hypocrisy."

Jiang Gui: "Don't hide it from you. I have been a clerk for so many years. I have seen everyone, even those big lords, who are not as crowded as I am. There are also jobs for money, I'm afraid you won't dare to do it."

Lin Yuanshun climbed up the pole: "Brother Jiang, please give pointers."

Jiang Gui suddenly said seriously: "Giving pointers is not a good idea, do you know the gambling shops in the city? You know about it?"

Of course Lin Yuan knew that this was loan sharking in a popular sense.

"Brother Jiang." Lin Yuan pretended to hesitate, "Now that the world is not good, can I get it back after putting the seal?"

Jiang Guichong and Lin Yuan blinked: "You can trust me, so I will help you. There is a handle in the south of the city, who specializes in collecting debts. All of his men are good hands, all murderers who lick blood with the tip of a knife."

This Jiang Gui is simply black and white, and it can be mixed into one in modern times!

I also know that I can get closer and help myself a little bit after eating my own benefits. If this person is still alive in troubled times, he might really do something.

Lin Yuan: "Brother Jiang, I have to think about it. Those gamblers are in a hurry. I'm afraid they will cut me off. Look at me, there is a young man next to me. I am timid and afraid of death!"

Jiang Gui laughed loudly: "Brother Lin, brave the courageous to death, starve to death the cowardly, you can think about it, and you can find me if you want to do it. I'll go back first, and the lady is still waiting for me to eat.

Lin Yuan sent Jiang Gui to the door, and the two exchanged a few words and agreed to keep in touch at some time.

After Jiang Gui left, Xiao Si came back with a bucket in two or two.

Lin Yuan remembered that there was no water at home and no pot to boil water, um...

What can you do to get money in winter? The inability to put the seal was against the basic moral values ​​cultivated by Lin Yuan in modern times. Although he knew it was a huge profit, Lin Yuan still gave up this choice while bleeding in his heart.

Lin Yuan suddenly asked, "Twenty-two, if you have a little money, what are you going to buy?"

Two and two were wiping the table. He disliked the old servant's wiping clean. When Lin Yuan asked, he said smoothly, "Buy meat to eat, fat."

Lin Yuan's eyes lit up!

to make!

Found the goal.

The ancients were short of oil and water. At this time, there was no modern feed for pigs and no special pig farms. Lard was not enough to consume. Although vegetable oil began to be consumed in the Song Dynasty, it has always been the leader in sesame oil extraction.

At that time, the method of squeezing the oil had been used. Soybeans produced a very low oil yield with this method. Later, with the soaking method, the oil yield became higher, and the limelight overwhelmed the sesame seeds.

Nowadays, the common people can't afford animal fats, and the sesame oil is rising fast. When cooking, small households use chopsticks to wrap a cloth and wipe a pot with oil. They are all greedy.

Lin Yuan: "Is soybeans expensive?"

Twenty-two are also people who have been to the market anyway: "Five cents per catty, cheap."

Yes, soy oil.

Lin Yuan was full of confidence and watched me make a lot of money.

As for the business registration, isn't there a local snake like Jiang Gui?
