Nongmen Granny's Road to Destiny Chapter 372 The price difference between a 5-year-old fruit tree and a 5-year-old fruit tree is not double. The price of a three-year fruit tree is three cents. I bought 2,000 coins, invested a total of more than 800 taels of silver, and earned more than 100 taels.

Lizhou City followed the trend of planting apples, and some did not make money, but they all saw the benefits, and they were happy that they did not pay back their money.

Zhou Shuren also collected the fruit. The most fruit merchants in Lizhou City are fruit merchants. At the beginning, Zhou Shuren ordered three-year fruit trees. There are few species, and the family takes good care of them. Except for all kinds of dead ones, basically each one can be sold for about ten pounds.

After deducting the money for the fruit trees returned to the Yamen, the people who planted two would have four hundred cents left, and those who planted one would have two hundred cents. Moreover, the money for the fruit trees was paid back this year, and the money for selling the fruit next year would be theirs.

Lizhou City is really bustling with cars, waiting for Apple to finish processing it.

Zhulan noticed that Zhou Shuren had lost weight again, "You've finally lost all the meat you've grown so hard."

Zhou Shuren, "Recently, Master Chen and I have moved to different counties, and we are busy checking the accounts and we are tired and thin. You didn't see that Master Chen was already thin, and now he is too thin to support his official robe."

Zhulan rolled her eyes in her heart, Zhou Shuren couldn't hold up her official robe anymore, but she was embarrassed to say to others, "Now that the fruit has been sold and the pigs have been killed, you can take a good rest."

Zhou Shuren really breathed a sigh of relief, all the money released by the yamen was recovered, and the accounts on the yamen finally looked better.

Although the pigs are not very big, the people who raise the pigs still have more than ten kilograms of pork left after removing the money from the yamen. Whether the meat is sold or kept for eating, it is all earned by the people.

Zhou Shuren smiled when he thought of the smiles on the faces of the people and the innocent words of the children, "The apples and pork that will be sent to the capital will leave tomorrow."

Zhulan sighed, "The people are sincere, not to mention that your yamen received apples and pork from various townships, our family has been cut off these days, and we don't need to buy pork at home. I go everywhere to the village to give money, and those who don’t receive money will send food over there, but I still don’t accept it, and there are still people who send it back, there is no way, I said it myself to make it clear that the people will accept the money and food.”

Zhou Shuren also had a headache, "The officials of the yamen are also sending money everywhere, and these days my legs are thinning."

Zhulan put her arms around Zhou Shuren's neck and bent her eyes, "This shows that you are a good official, the people recognize you very much, and I am proud of you."

Zhou Shuren felt that he was also very great. He also asked the villages to sign contracts with the merchants. In the next few years, the sales of fruits would be guaranteed, and the vermicelli recipes were also given to the merchants for free, but they only needed to sign a deed, which could only be received from the state. He is not afraid that the people will plant fruit trees and give up growing food.

Apples are indeed valuable, but there are risks. In case of natural disasters such as drought, or fruit trees die from disease, food is still safe.

Sweet potatoes are high-yield crops. Lizhou City has also been growing sweet potatoes and potatoes. They are very experienced in planting. Eight hundred catties per mu can be guaranteed. Even if they sell for one penny per catty, they are still eight hundred yuan, and they can pay taxes. Put down a lot of money,

Moreover, in the event of a natural disaster, even if there are sweet potatoes and potatoes, food can survive.

The people of Lizhou City have experienced starvation, but they are more willing to grow food.

And the price of fruit trees will definitely rise next year, and ordinary people still can't afford it. Zhou Shuren feels more at ease when he thinks about it.

In the palace, the emperor is waiting for the news of Lizhou City, and the prince has not left. Well, in fact, the emperor did not let the prince leave.

The person who reported the report finally sent the book. The emperor looked at the summary with one eye and ten lines. He put down the book and laughed: "Okay, okay, Lord Zhou left two guarantees for Lizhou City."

This year, the prince has been looking at the documents of Lizhou City. Since the granary of Lizhou City finally had food, he breathed a sigh of relief and was waiting for today's news.

The emperor handed the book to the prince, "Look at it."

The prince browsed quickly, because it was urgent news, and it took a few days to arrive in the capital. The news on the booklet reported that all the pigs adopted by the common people were killed, the prince curled his lips, "I was still worried, the common people went to plant them. Apple stopped growing food, and I was thinking about whether to write a book for the emperor to set the rules for Lizhou City. Before I wrote the book, Mr. Zhou thought about it. Mr. Zhou put the vermicelli business circle in Lizhou City. In the future, Lizhou will not only The apple state, or the vermicelli state.”

The emperor's eyes are full of smiles. This is the best news I have heard this year. In the second half of this year, Lizhou has attracted a lot of businessmen. You can indeed look forward to it, "Our Lord Zhou is very good at using local resources."

In the past, the land in Lizhou was not fertile, and most of the crops were sweet potatoes. After harvesting, winter wheat was planted. Unfortunately, the output of winter wheat was still poor.

There are too many sweet potatoes and no one wants them, and I can't collect much tax. Now Zhou Shuren has solved it according to the land. My vision is really good.

The prince is no longer wearing a mask. It is indeed a great event. "The apples and pork that Lord Zhou sent to the capital should be on their way."

The emperor stroked his beard and said, "This year's reward to the court ministers is here, and everyone gets a share."

The crown prince smiled, his heart was clear, the father was not only to save money, but also to beat the ministers, not to mention that the father hoped to have more ministers like Lord Zhou He hopes that as long as the court slows down , the problem of the northeast border can be completely solved, the father emperor founded the country, he also has ambitions, he hopes to expand the territory, ahem, on the premise that he still safely ascends the throne in the position of the prince.

In Lizhou City, Chen Chen was overwhelmed with emotion. He had never received anything from the common people before. Although it was more than what the adults received last week, Chen Chen's heart was also shocked.

Chen Chen sighed, "I have been an official for so many years, and I want to climb up every step of the way. Only this year did I understand the meaning of wearing an official robe. After living in vain for so many years, I have completely convinced Master Zhou."

Hua Shi couldn't understand it so profoundly, "Master, don't sigh, it's getting late, it's time to rest."

Chen Chen, "... um."

Early the next morning, the convoy from Lizhou City to the capital set off, and Zhulan also received a letter from her hometown.

Zhou Lao Er explained that he had arranged the home, and also received a lot of mushrooms and other mountain goods.

After reading the letter, Zhu Lan counted the days. Based on the speed of the letter, Zhu Lan estimated that the second child and family should arrive in about half a month.
