Chapter 1116: The Legend of King Qin

The tenant farmers did some quick calculations in their heads, one mu of average quality land could yield three hundred and fifty jin of wheat, and rice yielded slightly more than wheat.

For each mu, the rent was one hundred and fifty jin, which didn't even reach thirty percent!

Although yield might fall short in years of disaster, bountiful harvests also came, and on average, they didn't lose out at all!

"This year, I must rent more fields, life is looking up now!"

"Paying much less in rent, how could life not get better?"

And the tenant farmers who hadn't renewed their leases all deeply regretted it now.

Most had given up their fields after the rent was increased; if they could have endured just one more year, wouldn't they have met the owner?

"Master Tan, can we make a reservation now?"
