Gong, I'll protect you

Chapter 158 Go to Zhang Wangcun

Ding Naizi thought for a long time and said, "This year's output is so high that it is not too much to pay one and a half rent. Compared with other people, it is already the least rents. Farmers should have no objections. Tao Bo, do you mean that farmers will not agree to rent increases in the coming year?

Tao Bo nod his head and said, "That's what the old slave means. After all, it is impossible to get a good income every year as this year. In addition, the young master has always been lenient to others in the past. Now once the matter of rent increase is mentioned, I'm afraid that some unruly people will not agree."

Ding page quickly measured in his mind that she came from a miserable background, but it doesn't mean that she is also a bully. Renting land is also a business. Mr. Hao has made concessions a lot and tried his best to make money for the farmers, but if he gives up too much, Mr. Hao will inevitably be gossiped by his peers.

Is it possible that you are the only good person in the world? Are you the only one who can be a human?

"Tao Bo, who will collect this rent?" Ding Yizi asked in a low voice, after all, it is impossible for her to collect it in person, right? This is obviously unrealistic.

Tao Bo bowed and said, "Generally speaking, in previous years, it was collected by the village head of the village, and then handed over to the young master in the village."

Ding Yizi heard the implication of Tao Bo's words and hurriedly asked, "What about this year?"

Tao Bo looked unhappy and replied in a low voice, "In my words, I have also found the village head of each village this year. I hope they can put away all the rents as soon as possible. When the young master comes, they can also pay the bill directly, which is more convenient and convenient. However, those people said that the matter of raising the rent still needs to be discussed again. It is necessary for the young master to come, and the matter of collecting the rent has been delayed.

Ding Xiaozi nodded slowly, meditated for a moment, and then looked at Mr. Li beside him. Now Hao Ling is not here, and she doesn't know how much the rent should increase next year. She can only ask Mr. Li, who is knowledgeable.

"Li, what do you think we should do about this?"

Li stewul Li held his fist and said, "Young lady, in my opinion, the year of this bumper harvest is really rare. It's only three or four years of such a good year. If the rent rises too much and the annual harvest is not good, it will inevitably have a certain impact on Hao's reputation."

"What do you mean?" Ding asked with a frown.

stewer Li said, "I think it's better to directly change this year's rent to two burdens. The rent in the coming year will not rise. It depends on the situation. In this way, farmers should also be satisfied. However, this is only the opinion of the next person. If the young lady thinks it is necessary, she can send someone back to the house to ask the young master what he means.

Ding's page is very satisfied with the idea of steward Li. After all, such a good harvest is really rare.

She turned to Tao Bo and said, "Tao Bo, you heard what Manager Li said just now, so let's do it."

Tao Bo's face was in a dilemma, "Young lady, don't you really need to discuss this with the master and the young master again?"

If this matter is not handled well, Ding Page is the young lady of Hao Mansion and the nobleman of Hao Ling. Hao Mansion will definitely not do anything to her, so he has to vent his anger on Tao Bo, a person who works underneath. Although Tao Bo knows that Hao's house is not the kind of mansion that does things indiscriminately, he has always treated people kindly, but there will always be exceptions, right?

Ding Page said seriously, "Tao Bo, if the situation is really like what you just said, then do it like this. If there is anything, don't worry, I'll take care of it."

When Tao Bo saw Ding's persistence, he couldn't say anything more, so he had to respond and said that he would send someone to inform the village head of the village as soon as possible and inform all the farmers of the result.

Taking advantage of this notice, Ding Page took out the account book and took it out again. Compared with the total amount of rent collected in previous years, it has doubled this year, and it is much better to calculate the account.

Then she asked Tao Bo how long it would take for this notice.

Tao Bo replied, "If there is no accident, the news will be notified to the village chiefs. The village head should call a meeting to inform the villagers of the results. If the villagers have no objection, they should soon collect all the rents, and then the village head will hand over the rents over. This is probably It will also take more than two or three hours.

Since it's still early, Ding Page will go back to the yard to rest first. At present, it seems that things are easier to deal with, but I hope it's really that simple.

But he said that after Ding Nianzi went back to the yard, he just asked Qinglian to get some water for her to wash, so as to drive the fatigue of driving all the way, but Tao Bo found it again.

Ding Yizi secretly guessed that something must have changed again, and Tao Bo came to give her a call.

Ask Zi Shuang to go out and ask Tao Bo to wait in the side hall first, and then she will arrive.

Ding Page quickly changed her clothes and hurried to the side hall. This was the first thing she came out to do instead of Hao Ling. She didn't want to mess it up. When she came to the side hall, she saw that Uncle Tao couldn't help walking around in the side hall, and his face seemed to have a difficult look.

"Tao Bo, what's the situation?" Ding Page asked in a low voice.

Hearing Ding's voice, Tao Bo hurriedly stepped down, turned to Ding's, hugged his fist respectfully and said, "Young lady, just now, there was a message from the village. After the village head summoned the villagers to announce your words, some villagers questioned your words and had to see you in person."

Ding Xiaozi was stunned, "See me in person?"

Tao Bo nodded and said, "Exactly. Originally, it was written in the contract, but now the young lady said that you don't do that and only accept two rents. The villagers are still worried and have to ask you to say it in person in front of them.

Ding's page still said that it's a big deal. It turns out that it's just a matter, but it's also simple. Think about it, even if this happened to her, and the boss suddenly said that the contract was going to be changed, she would definitely ask the boss to speak in person in front of her, instead of waiting for others to hear from her.

"Okay, this is no problem. You ask Yang Li to prepare for it, and I'll run to the village." Ding Page agreed very well, and explained that he went to the village by himself, instead of asking the farmers to come to the village to find her.

Tao Bo looked at Ding's page hesitantly and asked, "Young lady, I'm afraid it's not appropriate for you to go in person? Otherwise, let a few representatives from the village come and let them hear what you mean, and then go back and convey it. You can run back and forth.

Ding Page shook his head and said slowly, "It doesn't matter. Since I dealt with this matter, I have to deal with it. It's better for me to go to the village in person and tell all the villagers, so that the person who goes back and spreads a shadow, which is not good.

Since Ding's page is not afraid of trouble, Tao Bo can't say anything more. In addition, when he thought about it, it was naturally the most appropriate for Ding Page to tell all the villagers in person. If Hao Ling came, he would definitely do so, but because Ding Page was a woman, he was more worried. However, considering the origin of Ding Page, that trace of concern was quickly left behind by him.

Tao Bo answered and hurried out to prepare.

Yang Li is a servant under Hao Ling. He is very clever in doing things and has some fists and skills. This time, Hao Ling specially sent him here, which is also to protect Ding's pages. When he learned from Tao Bo that Ding Page was going to the village, he hurriedly asked the driver to start to set up the car. When everything was ready, he went to Ding Page's yard to report.

Ding Shizi hurriedly took Qinglian Zishuang, and Li's steward Yang Litao and Aunt Tao and others went to the village together.

After soliciting the opinions of Tao Bo and Li, Ding Peizi went to Zhang Wangcun first. As the name implies, most of the residents in Zhang Wang's village are surnamed Zhang and Wang. They are closer to Zhuangzi in Haofu, and the questioning is also the greatest.

Village head Wang Taili took a group of people to meet at the entrance of the village early. Seeing two carriages coming from afar, he smiled and told the villagers behind him to grin. This time, she came to the young lady of Hao Mansion, and she had to deal with it carefully.

In the face of simple villagers, Ding Page will not put on airs. After all, she was also a farmer's child in her previous life, and she has the most feelings for these people facing the loess.

Seeing Ding's page approaching, Wang Taili bent down and saluted first, "The villain Wang Taili has met the young lady." Following Wang Taili's salute, a group of villagers behind him also saluted Ding Page.

Although Ding's identity is not very noble, nor is it the wife of the official, as the boss of these villagers, they are still qualified to take advantage of their gift.

Ding Xiaozi smiled faintly. He stretched out his hand and signaled that the villagers were not polite. He also said, "You just act cheaply, and don't be so polite."

Seeing that Ding Page was so approachable, Wang Taili and the villagers were relieved and had a deep heart. In fact, as long as the owner is easy to talk, they are not the kind of unreasonable people.

At the invitation of Wang Taili and his party, Ding Pagezi and others took the lead in going to Wang Taili's house.

As the head of Zhangwang Village, Wang Taili's yard is also the largest. It is located on the highest eastern plot in Zhangwang Village, which occupies as much as one mu of land. Compared with the three or four small houses of other villagers, Wang Taili's family is also a luxury house.

For Wang Taili's wealth, Ding's page is not acceptable. Everyone can make money by their ability.

After entering the yard of Wang Taili's house, Ding Bizi sighed secretly in his heart. I have to say that Wang Taili is really a little rich man. The yard covers a large area. There are also two into the yard, and even a small garden. Some flowers and vegetation in the garden are even common in Hao's house, and the windows are clean everywhere, and even some decorations can be seen to be thoughtful. And silver.
