Chapter 228 She has a way to raise enough money

Mr. Cheng nodded again.

The newly renovated fields usually cannot be planted in the past few years.

In order not to increase the burden on the local governments in Changting County, the imperial court did not have to pay taxes on the new land that was reclaimed during the three years after each tax policy was changed.

However, their local governments can require tax payments depending on the situation.

If there is no harvest for newly reclaimed land, they may not collect taxes. If the harvest is good, they can be required to pay a certain proportion of grain tax.

This grain tax can be allocated by their local governments.

Thinking of this, Cheng Zongzhen suddenly guessed what Zhu Ruru meant.

His eyes lit up, "Miss, what do you mean, but to take advantage of the newly renovated fields in this year?"

However, can this raise enough funds?

The funds required to build a city wall are quite large. Digging food from the ground is not easy from ancient times to the present. Even if you work hard to open up the land, how much can you plant?

Thinking of this, Mr. Cheng's eyes darkened again.

Zhu Ruru asked Cheng Zong Town again, "General Town, do you know how many new land reclamation numbers have been added in our Hai'an Town in the past two years?"

Mr. Cheng thought for a while and said, "In addition, what you have cultivated on the wasteland should be about 4,000 acres."

Four thousand acres?

Zhu Ruru thought about it for a while and then settled the calculation.

A few months ago, she and her villagers took the sweet potatoes and potatoes to harvest on average, at least 3,000 kilograms per mu.

According to their prices, sweet potatoes can usually be sold for five or six cents per pound, while potatoes can be sold for eight or nine cents per pound.

On average, six or seven cents per pound.

Conservatively calculate according to the six-text.

If you sell the harvest per mu, you can earn 3,000 times 6, a total of 18,000 ci.

That is, eighteen taels of silver.

They charge 50% of their taxes, which is nine taels of silver.

A tax of nine taels of silver per acre of land is nine hundred taels, and one hundred acres is nine hundred taels, four thousand acres, which is thirty six thousand taels.

This is just a season.

Sweet potatoes and potatoes can be planted for two seasons a year, and you can receive about 70,000 taels of silver in two seasons. If you are more cruel and increase the tax rate, you can receive more.

This is just a land reclamation.

In the next year, they can continue to renovate the land in the whole town.

On average, each person who opens one acre of land for ten thousand people can open up ten thousand acres.

Wouldn't the money that requires building a city wall come out?

If it is not enough, it is definitely enough to mobilize some wealthy families in the town and the people donate some money.

After all, building a city wall is a benefit to everyone, and they don’t want to worry that every time a barbarian or a pirate comes, they will be worried that they will be robbed and even lose their lives.

After hearing Zhu Ruru's analysis and settlement of the score, Cheng Zongzhen's dim eyes lit up again.

"Miss, what you said is true? Can those newly renovated lands on the wasteland really harvest three thousand kilograms of sweet potatoes or ground eggs per acre?"

Zhu Ruru nodded, "According to my estimate, there should be no problem. Even this is just my conservative estimate. It is possible that you can harvest 4,000 or even 6,000 kilograms per acre."

Since the sweet potatoes and potatoes were planted, the villagers have taken good care of them.

Although it has not been dug out yet, some people have already dug some and tried it home.

The sweet potatoes and potatoes dug out are both big and round, sweet and delicious.

When Mr. Cheng heard this, he was so shocked that he could hardly speak.

He was so excited.

One acre of land can grow so many sweet potatoes and eggs, which may be used as grain crops, so you won’t have to worry about selling them if you plant them.

That's all white money!

When he thought of the city wall that he had been thinking about for so many years, he was waving to him, his heart couldn't help but thump.

"Miss, as long as you can help me build the city wall, I will promise you, no, I promise you the identity of a good family member in your household registration book!"

Mr. Cheng waved his hand very proudly.

Zhu Ruru's eyes lit up when she heard this.

So, as long as he helps build the city wall, their whole family will be able to restore their identity as a good citizen?

This is really great!

What I hope most now is that the whole family can get rid of their crimes as soon as possible.

Otherwise, many things will be inconvenient, for example, you cannot leave Hai'an Town and go to another place...

Although they could only stay within the scope of Changting County within three years of restoration of their crimes, they could only settle their residence in Changting County, buy houses and land in Changting County, do business, etc....

However, in three years, these restrictions will be gone!

This is also an expectation for them.

"Don't worry, General Town, I will help you build the city wall as soon as possible!"

Zhu Ruru is now full of motivation, and is more motivated than when mobilizing everyone to open land and farm.

After all, she was just given meritorious cards to her before, but now she promised that her whole family could get rid of her crime!

Of course, Zhu Ruru also knew that this matter would be more difficult and harder than mobilizing everyone to plant hundreds of acres of land before.

However, this difficulty and hard work cannot defeat her!

Of course, this matter is not urgent. The most important thing at the moment is to dig out the sweet potatoes and potatoes on the wasteland.

Next, prepare for planting for the next season.

In the next few days, Zhu Ruru mobilized everyone to dig out the sweet potatoes and potatoes in the field.

"Oh my God, I didn't expect to collect so many sweet potatoes and ground eggs. Our cellar is probably not able to be filled. If I had known it, I would have heard from Miss Ruru and dug the cellar a little bigger!"

"Fortunately, my family heard the suggestion of Ruru and dug the cellar very much, but these sweet potatoes and ground eggs were too abundant. Even so, my cellar could only be installed."

More than a month ago, Zhu Ruru suggested that everyone dig a cellar, and also specifically emphasized that they were asked to dig a larger cellar at home.

Some people listened, while others listened halfway.

The cellar was dug, but not particularly large.

Now, I regret seeing those sweet potatoes and potatoes that are too numerous to hold!

It seems that no matter what Miss Zhu says in the future, they will have to obey it!

"If you can't hold it, you can carry it to me and I will buy it here, but it will be less than the market price."

"The purchase price of sweet potatoes is four cents per kilogram."

"The ground egg is six cents per pound."

Two months ago, Zhu Ruru asked some people to help dig and build two large underground warehouses in order to purchase these sweet potatoes and potatoes at that time.

At that time, she didn't think so much, but just wanted to help a group of villagers and make some money from it.

After all, acre of land can produce so many sweet potatoes and potatoes, so they can’t just eat these things every day, right?

If you can't finish it, you can only sell it.

But they are all sinners now, and they can’t even go to Changting County’s county government, so they can only take it to the town to sell it.

But just selling it in the town, how much can it be sold?

If you can’t sell it and eat it, you will have to rot. What a pity!
