Chapter One Thousand and Eighty-Four

At the foot of the Son of Heaven, the first good district, the fertile land around the capital, the price is higher than that of the fertile land in other places.

An acre of fertile land around the capital, because of the difference in its location, the price is between eight taels and thirteen taels, the fertile land purchased by the four masters, although scattered, but they are all the best good fields, if you make a rash move, it is difficult to buy the highest price, coupled with the limitations of the middleman and other problems, if you don't plan carefully, these fields can't be sold for money at all, if so, it is better to let these fertile fields continue to stay there, no matter how you say, it is always an industry.

"Don't say anything else, let's just say that you want to sell the land, who are you going to put in charge?

Although these two or three hundred acres of land are placed in our house, it is nothing, but if you want to sell them all, it is not something that can be dealt with in a day or two, you can't let Mrs. Bai, the big shopkeeper of Xuancai Fang, be responsible for this kind of trivial matter of sesame mung beans, as for others, the palace maids in the house are not allowed to stay overnight, if you run out of the house every day, it is estimated that some people will gossip, you have to think about this!" The fourth master pushed these brochures to the side, raised his hand and rubbed his cheeks, and said with a straight face.

The fourth master does not object to Erfu selling the industry, this matter is not as important as worrying about what snacks to eat for supper at night, these fields are placed in ordinary people's homes, it is definitely an ancestral property that is worth caring for and passed down from generation to generation, but it is placed in the fourth master's mansion and sprinkled with water, so whether it is sold or not, how much silver taels can be sold, is not a topic that can be of interest to the fourth master, but he is more concerned about who will be in charge of this matter.

Although one acre of land is a matter of ten or two taels of silver, but the sand into a tower, two or three hundred acres of land sold, it is also nearly two or three thousand silver, always find a trustworthy person to take care of this matter, the palace maid is limited by her identity, it is not good to show her head outside, those little eunuchs who run errands and pass the word are illiterate, although they are clever, but even the deeds of the sales contract to go to the yamen to back up are not good, and the big eunuchs have the ability to take on this errand, but they have their own errands, count and count, and only those housekeepers and bookkeepers in the house, but who to arrange, this errand is not big, not small, and it is quite time-consuming, who to arrangeWho would want to go!

Regarding this, Erfu obviously had a plan, she smiled and raised her index finger and shook it, and said softly: "There is a tooth shop, we can hand over the deeds of these scattered land to the manager comprador of the tooth shop, or directly sell these deeds to a tooth shop, and then they will sell them little by little, we just stay in the house to collect the cash, and there is no need to arrange for the people in our house to be responsible."

I'll tell you the truth, don't look at these servants and miscellaneous servants in our house seem to be more loyal to you than the other, but when it comes to the means of greedy Mo Gongzhong, then all of them have their own tricks, and if you really want me to hand over this kind of work to them, I really don't know the bottom of my heart, so it's better to take advantage of those tenants.

In addition, when it comes to selling scattered land, I also want our village leaders to carefully ask the tenants who rent our land to see if any of them want to buy, if those tenants who are down-to-earth and responsible are willing to buy land, it is not necessarily necessary to let them take out so much silver in one go, even if they owe the money to buy the land first, let them repay the loan slowly in the future, and sell it directly to them, and save it all falling into the hands of those rich dignitaries, but it will make those farmers who have to rely on the sky to eat have to pay 30% of the harvest every year to rent the land, what do you think of my idea? ！”

"Since you have already thought about these things, then do it according to your wishes, you have no opinion. The fourth master said that Erfu, who was thinking seriously, was handsome, he supported his cheek with one hand, and sat on the Luohan bed relaxedly, and replied with a slight smile on the corner of his mouth.

"Okay, let's talk about the shops. Erfu didn't care where the fourth master's mind was, he decisively packed up the booklets piled up on the tea table in front of him, put them back on the long table, and moved another stack of books again, pointing to several of the booklets with a circle on the cover with a red pen, and motioned to the fourth master to look at these pit shops that were losing money and losing money again.

These shops are small in area, the location is not good small shops, the rent of a year is dozens of taels of silver, or less, it is more than a dozen taels of silver, especially in the south of the city of a few small shops, all of them are rented to those small businesses who send water everywhere to make hard money, the rent is difficult to collect, not to mention, the good small shops are tossed not to look good, more than a dozen Liba live in a small room, the good blue brick floor is about to rot, not to mention the walls and window lattices, such as more delicate things, if all are recovered, just re-pavingThe money for painting the walls is a lot of expenses, but renting it like this can't bring much income to the house, but it gives outsiders a wrong feeling that the fourth master's mansion has a good foundation and shops everywhere.

Thinking of this, the fourth master closed the booklet in his hand, nodded solemnly and agreed.

"Then all of them will be handed over to the tooth shop to be responsible, I will also arrange for the steward of our house to go over and ask those merchants who lease the shops, if they are willing to pay the money to these shops next, if they are willing, then it is naturally good, if they are unwilling, then they can only say sorry to them, inform them to find a place to move, and strive to clean up these shops before the weather is completely cold, and strive to buy more silver taels, and also let the tooth shop pay attention to the shops on other Wang streets, and then buy a few better shops, so as not to leave the silver in the warehouse and fall into ashes。 Although the fourth master said that these things would be left to his own ideas, Erfu still told the fourth master what he thought in his heart, so as not to fan the yin wind and light the ghost fire in the backyard and provoke the fourth master, but she would not be alone.

It never hurts to be careful.

As it turned out, she had to explain a little more this time, and it also saved her a lot of trouble.

As the concubine of the house, she is in charge of the Zhongfeng and Gongzhong treasury, holding a big key worth tens of millions of gold in her hand, and countless people are staring at her every move, not to mention that she is selling the Fuzhong property so generously.

Although there is no such thing as transferring property in this era, there is also a saying about dividing the family property, especially the Honghui elder brother left by the Wulanala clan of Xianfujin is seventeen years old, and the concubine and the fourth master in the palace have decided to choose the right show girl to discuss the marriage when they draft next year, and Erfu sells the property at this juncture, and those women naturally think of the matter of dividing the family property, and take the baseless speculation and association in their hearts as a fact, and run to the fourth master one by one to hold the grievances for Honghui, if it weren't for this matter, Erfu discussed it with the fourth master early in the morning, and explained every case in detail, how could the fourth master not think about it！

"Okay, you do things, you can rest assured, if you really lose, you will take your dowry. After dealing with these things, the fourth master made a rare joke easily, and he stretched out his fingers to provoke Erfu's chin with some frivolous movements, like those swingers who shook their heads and threw money in the theater garden, teasing.

"That's not good, my dowry is all saved by me one by one, and I still have to leave it to Xiao Qi as a dowry, how can I let you use it to squander it wantonly!"

The two of them had a lively time in the room, and it was even more lively outside.

Tong Jia's side Fujin was regarded as a decoration by the fourth master to occupy a seat in the backyard, these women in the backyard, only Erfu knows, others still think she is the new favorite of the fourth master, there is a sesame mung bean trivial matter to run over to discuss with her, she is also very willing to enjoy this feeling of being sought after, originally it was still a pile of piles and pieces of time to return to the fourth master, and now seeing that the fourth master is no longer cold to her, she is a little unable to find her own position, and she even started to fight for favor again.

And now the obstacle in front of her is no longer the old man Erf, but Ula Nara Mei'er.

In the end, it is the niece of Empress Tong Jia, the elders in the family often go in and out of the harem, some gossip, others don't know, but she knows it clearly, what is the temperament and conduct of the princes in the palace, she can also know a lot from the mouths of the elders in the family, so Tong Jia's family understands the character of the fourth master better than other women in the fourth master's house, don't look at the fourth master looks at the cold temperament, but he is the most affectionate and righteous person, maybe Ulana Lameier has made a mistake in taking care of Xiao Gege, but just her careful care of Xiao Gege is enough to make the fourth master treat her very favorably, yesterday was grounded, and Xiao Gege is about to move to other courtyards and be taken care of by the grandmother, but today she was exempted from these punishments, and there may be Erfu, a good old man, who pleaded for her, but more because the fourth master was soft-hearted to Ula Nara Mei'er.

If a man is willing to be soft-hearted to a woman, then there is only one possibility, see the right eye.

It was enough to annoy her with the old woman Erfu in front of her like a mountain that could not be dug to block her own way to the top, and now there is Wulana Meier, a prodigal hoof who has been waiting for the fourth master outside, if Tong Jiashi can endure it any longer, it will be really unexpected.

It's easy to get rid of Ulanara, but it's also very difficult.

As long as there is Xiao Gege, let Ula Nara Meier brush up on the aura of motherhood anytime and anywhere, then Ula Nara Meier can easily gain a firm foothold in the house, and then there will be another pregnancy and another child...... It's like a virtuous circle, in the end, it's hard to say whether Ulanara's Meier can climb to Erfu's head as a prestige, but she can definitely guess that she can't give birth to a side Fujin head, and if you want to break this virtuous circle, you can only start with Xiao Gege, the deficiency brought by Xiao Gege's womb, a little carelessness may die, she doesn't do it, Xiao Gege may not be able to grow up safely, but she can't wait for this to happen. The opportunity may not appear, everything is afraid of what if, in case Xiao Gege can grow up safely...... So when those women wantonly laughed at Wulana Mei'er's good Shu Fujin was about to arrive, but she was tossed and lost by herself, she had been thinking about how to do it to Xiao Gege.

She didn't participate in the messy discussion, she just wanted to be a bystander.

In fact, she did find suitable candidates to take advantage of, Yutong and Yuhua.

The two concubines sent in by the Wu family are delicate, one has a gentle temperament, and the other has a hearty temperament, but they complement each other, the only drawback is that they are too young, and they have been embraced and cared for by everyone in the family as a savior since they were children, and they are a little proud in their bones.

Tong Jiashi was even thinking that the fetus of Wulana Lameier was suddenly born prematurely, and it might have something to do with this rain tong and rain tree.

Not to mention, she really guessed right.

Considering this possibility, Tong Jiashi didn't plan to win over the two of them for her own use, let alone lure the two, she raised her hand and beckoned Ju Xiang, a dowry maid who was absolutely loyal to herself, to come forward, whispered a few words, and laughed cruelly with a grim face.

Give it a try, in case you can get a surprise!

She asked Ju Xiang to find two inconspicuous little eunuchs, and then through the mouth of the little eunuch to test Yutong and Yuhua, Tong Jiashi secretly thought, if she can test the shortcomings of Yutong and Yuhua, she can sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, directly through the little eunuch to order Yutong and Yuhua to get rid of the little grid that Wulanala Meier came out of, she doesn't need to be stained with blood on her hands, and it has nothing to do with this matter, this method is much safer than her own actions.

I thought of it, and three days later, Yutong and Yuhua received an unsigned secret letter.

The letter is how the two of them borrowed the vase in the room and the window of the Ulanala Meier, and the whole process of doing something to the fetus in the womb of the Wulanala Meier, the content is detailed and accurate as if someone had seen these things with their own eyes, although the letter did not attach any evidence, but Yutong and Yuhua still did not dare to follow the letter, and took the opportunity to go to the needlework room for Wulanala Meier to get new clothes, and came to a corner of the back garden.

A little eunuch who was thrown into the crowd and would disappear in the blink of an eye was waiting for them with a sneer on his face.

"The two girls are good, the slave is on the orders of my master, specially waiting for the girl here, just to pass a message to the two girls, my master doesn't want to see anything five or six grids in the house, and it is not easy to get close to the Drifting Snow Garden, so I hope the two girls can share the worries for my master." The little eunuch pinched the orchid finger in his hand, pinched a pink handkerchief embroidered with osmanthus flowers, took small steps, pretended to be shy, approached Yutong and Yuhua, and said in a low voice.
