Chapter 1717: Satiate

The housekeeper quickly arranged everything, and Xu Tianyu and the others also had a warm meal.

After Xu Tianyu had eaten enough, the butler did not leave, and waited everywhere.

"Anything?" Xu Tianyu asked.

"Master, there is a little thing. The wheat planted in the fields around our manor has already been harvested. The farmers asked if we should continue to grow wheat."

"Now how many fields we have in total are still in use, how many farmers there are, what are the treatment of those farmers, and how are the wheat harvests."

Xu Tianyu did not answer, but asked instead.

The butler wiped his forehead with cold sweat and said: "The fields outside the manor accounted for less than half, because farmers are lacking, and Baron Brighton did not need to plant so many fields before, but the other fields are deserted. stage."

"Because our fields are not very high-quality, and the climate this year is not very good, the harvest of all the wheat is not very good, each field only has about 500 kilograms of wheat."

"What, so little?" Xu Tianyu was a little surprised. He had seen Tiandi when he came over.

The length and width are about 100 meters. It is reasonable to say that under the influence of the climate, 1,000 kilograms is no problem. If the harvest is good, 5,000 kilograms will definitely not be difficult.

But now the housekeeper’s mouth is only 500 kilograms, which is far too few.

Hearing Xu Tianyu’s tone was wrong, the housekeeper hurriedly knelt down, "My lord, they are all pariahs who don’t work hard, so the output is so low. I will severely punish them when I go back."

Xu Tianyu looked at the housekeeper with profound meaning, "How was the treatment of the farmers before."

"Back, Master, they have to turn over 90% of the grain produced in each field to the manor."

"No wonder." Xu Tianyu understood, 90% of the income, leaving a layer, I am afraid that those farmers can't even fill their stomachs, and can earnestly help you work, then there is a ghost.

"Steward, you go to gather those farmers, I'm going to meet them, right? Have you sent the gold coins I asked you to issue?"

When Xu Tianyu asked, the butler's cold sweat on his forehead increased.

"Master...not yet, I...I want to see if there is anyone I want to leave before putting it down. It's still being sorted, so the gold coins are still with me."

"Ha ha……"

Xu Tianyu sneered a few times. Bambier, who was next to him, felt Xu Tianyu's meaning, and directly grabbed the butler, and then dragged it out.

"Master, listen to my analysis, I really don't mean to embezzle, give me a hundred guts to dare not do this."

The steward said pleadingly, but Xu Tianyu was unmoved, and walked out, thinking about the farmland outside.

He had made it clear before that if five hundred gold coins were issued, the rest belonged to the butler, and if the butler wanted more gold coins, he would inevitably drive others away.

"Hey." Xu Tianyu also knew that he had done a stupid thing, and as expected, humanity was nothing at all in the face of interests.

"Tian, ​​you think you will be the steward of this manor." Xu Tianyu said lightly, he doesn't believe in outsiders anymore.

"Yes, son." Thain agreed directly. Anyway, the butler is only directing others to do their work, and it is not difficult for him.

The place where the farmers live is not in the manor, but also in the fields, some small houses have been built.
