Chapter 85 Rent
Tang Ning could no longer listen and frowned and interrupted, "You are still wise and wise, with a torch, you are very wise, and you are very wise, and you are so stupid that it is difficult for us to understand such profound principles. Please give me a guide, what should we do now? There is not even a place to shelter from the wind and rain in Pingyuan Township. Our family has dozens of people of all sizes, and we are still waiting to stabilize!"
The village chief shook his head and looked at Tang Ning with a hint of appreciation and smile, "You girl are smart, but I can't help asking me about Pingyuan Township. After all, there is a county magistrate here! Even the county magistrate can't solve the problem. What can I do as a small village chief?
However, the county magistrate said that those who return home can go to the yamen to receive a sum of silver, one person, two taels of liang. In addition, all the land in Pingyuan Township has been taken away. Each household has less than five people, and each household can receive three parts of land to build a house, and more than five people, less than ten people, six parts of land, and so on. In addition, each male can receive five acres of paddy fields and three acres of fertile land, and a woman can receive five acres of mulberry fields.
If you are penniless, you can go to the county government to get these things. At least you can build a thatched hut to deal with it. When spring begins, everyone will have to go to the ground. Maybe this matter will be settled."
But when the spring comes, those people will surrender obediently, Tang Ning has to praise the old fox.
After coming out of the village chief's house, everyone looked at the father and daughter. Tang Ning didn't hide it, and the voice was neither loud nor small, so he told the village chief's words to Jiang and others.
When others heard this, they cursed again, "One tael of silver wants us to build a house and buy food, why don't he ask us to grab it!"
"That is to say! It takes more than one tael of thatched hut. If you buy some grain, two taels of silver may not be enough for us to last for two months. When the crops go down to the fields in the spring, we will starve to death!"
The guard of the village chief's family immediately said: "There are people in the town to provide porridge, and there are also people in the county. There are all kinds of things to do. There are still many jobs that need people. As long as you go out to find work, you will definitely not starve to death for two taels of silver."
"Maybe there are still left!" I don't know which village people were talking sorely.
Tang Ning asked after asking, he realized that these subsidies were only for Pingyuan Township and were not available in other villages. At most, they would give some food to help.
"It seems that the treatment of Pingyuan Township is not bad! That county magistrate is not as incompetent as he imagined." Tang Laoer said.
Tang Junsheng shook his head. When he thought of Feng Shui, he was always frowning and wanted to leave, but his household registration was settled, so they could not go anywhere. He was afraid that the situation would be even more afflicted.
The group planned to go to the county government tomorrow, and they could only find a cheap inn in the town tonight to stay for one night.
The next day, the others stayed in the inn and waited, only Tang Ning, Tang Junsheng and Wei Dazhi went to the county town.
The three of them drove a donkey cart without those heavy luggage, and the speed was significantly faster. They entered the yamen in less than noon. They could not see the honor of the county magistrate. Instead, the master came over and praised the county magistrate with an eloquence, and told them to give many benefits to the government magistrate. They put the account book in front of the three of them with a clear meaning, so they quickly took the things and signed the signs and escorted them away.
The three of them got things done in a daze. The master smiled so hard that he even sent them out in person.
Until they walked on the street, Wei Dazhi and Tang Junsheng looked flattered and dizzy, as if they had been stuffed with dozens of kilograms of honey, so sweet that they were dull.
Tang Ning shook his head helplessly and shouted loudly: "Dad, Uncle Wei, it's time to come back to his senses."
"My goodness, that's the master! He's so polite, and he's really not used to it, haha..." Wei Dazhi smiled like a fool.
Tang Ning was speechless, "I said to you, now I have taken the things, but I don't care about us. We have to go back to the village to see where the homestead is and what the fields are given. Don't dream about spring and autumn here anymore."
The two were pulled back to reality, and their faces returned to solemnity.
For the first time, Wei Dazhi complained to Tang Junsheng: "Your daughter is not caring! I don't know how happy we are."
Tang Junsheng rolled his eyes at him, "It doesn't matter whether you are considerate or not!"
Wei Dazhi smiled and touched his nose. His wife gave her daughter to Tang Zhong first. The matter between Tang Ning and Erlangzi was naturally not possible.
After the three of them returned to the town, Tang Ning said to everyone: "The current situation is that we must build a house in the village. Before the house is completed, we must find a place to live. The best way is to rent a yard in the town. Everyone can squeeze in and hold on for a few months first, and then move back to the village after the house is built."
When it comes to spending money, everyone is cautious and does not agree directly. However, Tang Junsheng agreed to Tang Ning's suggestion without thinking. In his opinion, if the rent is not expensive, he would rather rent it in the town and not go back to the village.
Tang Junsheng is professional in building a house. Even Tang Zheng knows much more than Tang Ning, so he divided his troops into three groups, a team of people entered the village to check, and the other people went to find a place to stay, and the rest stayed in the inn to check their luggage.
Lu Dazhuang had no other skills, and it was okay to shock some teenagers. He stayed to keep his luggage, Tang Rou and his children also stayed, Tang Ning took Du Chunyue, the Li family of Jiang family, and Tang Lao Er, the second-hand man Tang Zhong to find the house.
The towns in Jiangnan are not as big as those in the northwest, but they are much more prosperous than theirs. Even if they encounter floods, they will recover quickly. Everything in the town is as usual, and there are all kinds of stalls and vendors on the streets, even those who sell arts and juggle.
But Tang Zhong was stunned, and even the Jiang family and the others were reluctant to leave.
Tang Ning was better. After standing for a while, he forced the group of people away. Everyone walked a few streets but couldn't find a suitable house. The only thing that met their requirements was a house with a shop.
The whole house has two entrances in front and back. The front yard is a shop, a kitchen, a wood-room, a lobby with two ear rooms, and four wing rooms. The second entrance is mainly for women living in the house, divided into two courtyards, each with five or six rooms.
Such a house costs two taels of silver a month, and this price directly scared Jiang and others away. They even lost their desire to go in and look carefully.
Tang Ning also felt that the price was too expensive. It was probably because of this reason that the house could not be rented out. The owner of the house there was also anxious and did not want Tang Ning and the others to leave.
Everyone had been raising each other for a long time. Tang Ning and Du Chunyue exchanged glances and walked first. They left her and ran two or three streets from here. After asking, they didn't ask about the right house. When they came back, they were still talking. She had to say that the owner was so harsh.
