In ancient society, human relations are indeed a very important aspect. However, social relations are relatively more important.
Without social relations, especially without connections with government officials, even if you say you have treasures, smart people dare not take them out and let others know.
Otherwise, it would be a catastrophe.
In this era, if people become rich overnight, it is definitely not a good thing.
Because once a poor family becomes rich overnight, for example, they dig up some great treasures in the ground, such as gold, silver, and beads, not only will their relatives and clansmen be jealous, but even people in the surrounding villages will run over and be jealous every day. Even
if a smarter poor person knows that he can't keep the treasure, he will donate the treasure to the tribe. Then his entire tribe may not be able to let them live in peace.
Because the thieves, robbers, and rapists in the nearby towns and counties will move at the first sign of trouble. They are like a group of schistosomes that smell blood, coming fiercely.
Even some people who have some status and some connections with the government may want to see how those poor people make their fortunes.
After that, they will either rob, deceive, or lie to see if they can take the treasures for themselves.
Chen Xuanxuan had been in society for more than 20 years, and she had long understood that wealth should not be exposed.
Of course, it is okay to spend a little money, but if she really has a lot of money, she will never tell anyone. She will not let people around her know about it.
She traveled to this feudal society where the poor accounted for 99.999%. She was very careful and cautious. She
didn't dare to buy any large items that attracted people's attention here. She
didn't dare to sell them after buying them.
She was a person from the lower class, powerless and powerless. If one day, she really came across such a valuable thing. In front of those powerful and influential people with social connections, she would be a baby holding a gold ingot. She
had thought of many ways in the past six months. She had given her family a stable livelihood and built a new house. This had already attracted the attention of many people.
In the days to come, if she took radical measures, her family would live a good life all of a sudden. For example, buying land and farmland in the town... Haha, then by then, not only will the people of Gujiagang be worried about their family every day.
Even some people in Chenjia Village on the other side of the river will start to grumble.
Thinking of this, Chen Xuanxuan decided that she must be steady and cautious from now on.
Even if others take advantage of her, it shouldn't matter if her family suffers a little loss.
So, after Chen Xuanxuan taught her two apprentices how to make three different kinds of buns, she began to quit.
Anyway, she didn't want to get up at three or four o'clock every morning. After getting up, she had to make buns. She
was so tired every day, and she really didn't want to make money this way.
She let her two apprentices and the children do this kind of work every day.
They are younger than her.
They have to learn more skills and work harder while they are still young.
After Chen Xuanxuan did not make buns herself, her two apprentices and other children had to sit more for making buns.
As the saying goes, practice makes perfect.
Gradually, these children also realized many tricks of making buns.
...
Time passed in the busyness.
All farmers who make a living by farming wish they could split themselves in half every day. One half does this, and the other half does that.
Anyone who has farmed personally generally knows that farming is not only a technical job, but also a hard job.
Even if it is sunny and rainy, windy and rainy, they have to appear in the fields every day.
They have to keep an eye on the seedlings in the fields.
Because if they are not careful, these good things that ensure their survival will be eaten by insects. They will be slowly eaten by mice and wild birds in the mountains and forests.
Moreover, they have to pay attention to the amount of water in the fields at all times.
If it rains, they have to dig drainage ditches to drain the excess water in the fields quickly.
If it doesn't rain for ten days or half a month, all the people, that is, men, women, old and young in those families, will go out together. Holding all kinds of tools, they will water the seedlings that can't stand the sweat little by little.
At ten o'clock in the middle of the night, they also have to send people to guard the fields.
Because some people are so wicked.
They don't sleep in the middle of the night and just go to other people's fields to mess up.
Some people pull up other people's seedlings.
Some people secretly dig up other people's ridges.
People with evil minds hate the bumper harvest of other people's crops the most.
Although their own lives are not very good, they insist in their hearts that they have to live the same life as others, or even live a worse life than them.
Otherwise, they will not be happy deep down in their hearts.
As long as they see that everyone is as poor as them and cannot compare to them, they will feel that their lives are meaningful.
Unfortunately, there are such people in almost every place in the countryside.
They are worried that others will get rich, and sometimes they will go to other people's homes to poison them.
Seeing that other people raise fish, sheep and pigs on a large scale and earn 100,000, 200,000 or even more money every year, they are particularly dissatisfied and unhappy.
Therefore, they will sneak into other people's homes in the middle of the night, poison them and kill all the things that people have raised with great difficulty. They make people lose money in business, or even lose everything.
Chen Xuanxuan is a person with social experience.
As long as she thinks about the fact that she has read a lot of such news on the Internet in her previous life, she can't help but worry.
She is worried that the glutinous rice that her family has worked so hard to grow will be disturbed by others when it is about to mature.
So, she told the people in the Yu family to pay attention to the matter of the field.
Especially those suspicious people.
Knowing that they can share 20% of the profits after the rice is ripe, the more than 20 members of the Yu family have long regarded these fields as their own.
The efforts they put into these fields are much more than the ten acres of land they own in Yujiashan.
Now, after hearing the concerns expressed by Chen Xuanxuan, they have not left this land all day long.
Every day, every hour, even every night, they will form teams of three or two to patrol the fields.
Some people with bad intentions saw their eyes staring at the fields every day. They could not find a chance to burn the ripe glutinous rice.
