The Evil King's Favorite Concubine: Genius Perfumer

Chapter 56 The Tenant
Staying at home during the Chinese New Year, living like a pig.No, the days are more comfortable than pigs, how can the pigsty be as clean, comfortable and warm as her hut?
"Ah, no matter how many times you live this kind of life, you won't get tired of it, and you don't even want to go back to the workshop..."

Gan Tiantian and Gan Dong occupied half of the big kang in the main room, their four little hands kept throwing snacks on the kang table into their mouths, and the sound of crackling melon seeds hadn't stopped since morning.

This is the only kang in the house. Tan Yushu and Gan Qiu kindly warmed it up for the two little ones to nest in. As a result, the buttocks of the two were stuck to the top and could not get off.

"Hahahaha, little brother, you lost again!"

Gan Tiantian clapped her hands and laughed, she, a Go scumbag, could win three games in a row against her younger brother, thanks to him boasting that he was the number one chess player in their former private school.

It's just that her demeanor makes someone very uncomfortable.

"Is it worth being so happy to laugh at a hundred steps at fifty steps?"

Today's Mr. Ji is as cold and arrogant as ever.

Gan Tiantian would not let this guy ruin his good mood for the New Year, and responded to him cheerfully: "I'm happy, winning is better than losing."

Ji Bingyun was stunned.This girl always said something simple and straightforward when she didn't notice, but it made him have to admit that it made sense.

"Tiantian, my little uncle and I are going to visit the tenants in the countryside, do you want to go together?"

"Going to see the tenants on the third day of the Lunar New Year? It's a cold day."

Gan Tiantian raised his head from the pile of snacks and asked his elder brother curiously, "Why do you want to go down at this time?"

"Oh, it's hard to say."

It turned out that although the Fang family sent a steward to help when the Gan family bought the paddy field, and later took Gan Qiu to straighten out many land affairs, the tenant farmers still didn't trust him as a "little boss".

"When the rent was collected before the Chinese New Year, someone suggested to me that I wanted to change the owner next year, alas..."

Gan Qiu touched the back of his neck, feeling very helpless.

Originally, as the eldest brother, he didn't want to talk about these troublesome things with his younger siblings, but he communicated with the tenants privately several times, and the news he got was still not optimistic.

Seeing the little girl, he couldn't help but tell the truth.

Maybe in his subconscious mind, this younger sister, who is much younger than him, should be able to give him some advice?It's just, alas, I'm ashamed that during the Chinese New Year, I even magnified that I need to take good care of the land!

"Okay! I'll go down with you!"

Hearing this, Gan Tiantian stopped being lazy, and immediately got off the kang to change into big clothes.

In the end, even Gan Dong decided to join in the fun, and would rather go to the countryside to enjoy the cold wind than sleep alone at home on the hot kang.boring!

"Brother did a good job with the car."

Gan Tiantian is very satisfied with the cold protection and warmth of his ox cart. He is very satisfied when he sees that every window seam is firmly pasted with several layers of window paper, and the doors and windows are hung with thick cotton curtains.Brother, there are times when he is not careless.

"Well, Ah Chang specially hired someone to renovate it." When Tan Yushu said this, he couldn't help smiling, remembering that Gan Qiu said seriously at that time, "Let our Tiantian ride in the car comfortably".

Although this child is a little silly, he is really kind to the little sister.

It was past noon when they bumped all the way to the countryside.However, because of the Chinese New Year and the cold weather, everyone stayed at home or visited, and there were few people on the village road.

"Which one should we go to first?"

Gan Dong doesn't often go to the countryside with his uncle and brother, but he still has some impressions of the tenant farmers employed in his field.

Tan Yushu sighed, and said, "Ah Chang said to go to Liang Youguang's house first."

"Who is Liang Youguang?" Gan Tiantian asked.

"Just a tenant farmer... However, he has a lot of reputation in this village."

"prestige?"

Shareholders also have prestige?Could it be that he is an old man?
After further questioning, Gan Tiantian realized that Liang Youguang was not an old man, but a man in his 30s.And his "prestige" comes from his "capability".

"The best farmer's style in ten miles and eight towns!"

Everyone praised him so much.

It is said that Liang Youguang's work is the most outstanding in a radius of tens of miles.The example cited by Tan Yushu is that Liang Youguang was able to cut rice in paddy fields three or four miles long without raising his head.

This waist strength, this physical fitness, is already very powerful, and he works very fast, and his work is clean and neat.

Another person said that when he planted rice seedlings, in the same way, he could always finish planting them a day or two earlier than others, and he could still do odd jobs for others in the remaining time.

"It's good to be able to work...so he earned his reputation by being able to work?"

Gan Tiantian blinked her eyes, she can't be blamed for being ignorant, she really rarely touches farming.

"Of course."

Compared with Gan Tiantian, who doesn't work hard and doesn't distinguish between five grains, Tan Yushu, even though he is a frail scholar, still has some knowledge.

"He is a good tenant that every family is vying for. The landlords of several farms in the vicinity have let their sons call him uncle, and they are amiable to him."

Uh?Didn't it say that "landlords and peasants can never be of one mind"?Gan Tiantian decided to frankly admit his ignorance in farming, and asked, "Why do they treat a tenant so well?"

"Hey, Tiantian, I thought you were very smart..." Gan Dong had a rare chance to hit his smart little sister: "How can a landlord dare to treat these tenants who are able to work badly? Do you want someone to help them farm? ?”

"Not all of them." Tan Yushu added: "If the kind of big gentry and rich man with a thousand hectares of fertile land would naturally not try to please the tenants, but our family with tens of acres of land would not fight with the tenants. It's easy to make friends, how can I do it?"

Oh yes!
Gan Tiantian understood.

It is true that small landlords have land, and their families are better off than ordinary tenants, but there is not much difference in social status, as they are all from the same village.

For the tenants who do the work, the master does not do what the west does. If the land rent of this house is lower than that of that house, or if they have a good relationship with this house and a bad relationship with that house, they will choose the house that is beneficial to them.

For a tenant farmer like Liang Youguang, everyone would scramble to hire him.Not only because he has a good job, but also because he is a "capable person". Whichever employer he chooses proves which employer is more reliable.Otherwise, why would he do it here if he is such a good guy who can earn a living anywhere?There is always a reason.

Therefore, winning Liang Youguang means winning many good tenants who can work like him.But on the other hand, if he doesn't renew his contract with this family, he will definitely lead a large number of people to "change jobs".

The Gan family is now facing their first "employee hopping crisis" after they bought Xintian!
"That's it, I understand."

Gan Tiantian nodded as if he was pecking rice, feeling that he had learned something new today.Sure enough, reading thousands of books is not as good as traveling thousands of miles. Only by traveling more can you get in touch with a wider world.

Hmm... She must help her brother and keep this Liang Youguang!
