He knew clearly why he didn't come. In the past, the county magistrate also wanted to force women on him and mentioned the prefect's romantic affairs to him.
Don’t be fooled by his age, his sword is still sharp.
He also said that he was the only one out of the ordinary in the circle, and asked him to try it. Once he tried it, he would know how delicious it was. He might become more crazy and addicted than them. Zhao Dashu was so scared that he didn't even dare to drink, for fear of being drugged.
The group of people in the county laughed to death, laughing at him for being a coward.
In their eyes, Song was a tigress, a jealous woman who controlled her man completely.
"Oh, I haven't been here!"
So he really got a bargain this time. If the prefect knew about this, he would definitely slap his thigh.
"Kiko, please!"
The yard was swept clean, without any snow at all. It was a bit chilly at this time, all the leaves had fallen off, and there was no grass or flowers left.
Entering the main room, several stoves were immediately brought in. "They are heating the walls now. It will be warm in a while."
The village head raised his eyelids and glanced at them carefully.
Zhao Dashu picked up a cup of hot tea. "Did the governor's wife prepare these furniture?"
"Yes, Madam is very particular about her life."
That’s great, and it can save a lot of money. The prefect’s wife is really nice.
Zhao Xiaoyu was a little puzzled. "Why does Madam come here every year to escape the summer heat? I heard she has many farms in the city, right? What's so special about this place?"
Zhuang Tou thought about it carefully and shook his head, "I don't know either. I only heard Madam say that living here makes her happy and can make her forget all her worries."
Oh, I'm having a hard time, so I came here to relax.
I got up and toured all three courtyards. Except for the beds and ottomans that people had slept in, which needed to be replaced, everything else remained unchanged.
The village head said he could complete the work within five days.
The head of the village returned to his room, took out an account book and reported to them the current situation of the village.
"All the pigs were slaughtered during the New Year, and the money from their sale has been sent to the prefectural governor's office. We still have thirty chickens, thirty-five ducks, five cows, three mule carts, and some food..."
“There are so many more things?”
Mr. Qian had never bought a farm before, so he didn't expect there were so many things in it. It was really worth the money.
"Well, there are fish in the river, and there are dozens of fruit trees on the farm."
"Master," the village head looked at Zhao Dashu. Knowing that he was the boss, he couldn't help but say, "Before, Madam gave us a 30% to 70% commission."
Zhao Dashu felt that the 3:7 ratio was reasonable. After all, they were the ones doing all the work. When they hired servants before, they not only got a commission but also received a certain salary for other work.
"Then let's continue with the 30/70 split."
The village head was overjoyed, "Thank you very much, Master!"
"Go take a look outside."
There was no snow on the road outside, and it was obvious that the house was well maintained.
"Master, the front is where we live."
There are only low thatched huts. "Your life is not easy."
The farmer's eyes instantly turned red. The last time it was the prefect's wife who said that their life was not easy, they lived a good life under her care, which was much better than before.
Now the new girl also said so and promised to continue the 3:7 split. They are so lucky, it seems they have met another good girl.
It's winter now, and there's really nothing else to see. "Grandpa, are you going back?"
"Let's go back and have the village head repair it as you said."
"Okay!"
Only after the Zhao family members had finished their work did the farmers dare to come out.
"Boss, are we getting new shoes?"
They liked the wife of the prefect because she was kind, and to be honest, they really didn't want to change their husbands.
(It’s Mid-Autumn Festival! I wish you all can enjoy the moon without being blocked by clouds, eat cakes without dropping crumbs, and catch up on the latest updates without waiting. May the happiness be doubled!)
