Chapter 44 Buying seedlings is difficult

With this Wei Linlang incident, Empress Niu Colu exempted her from asking for peace, as long as she asked the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager to say goodbye on the fifteenth day of the new year.

This arrangement is simply too much for Sang Zi's heart, but her current identity, if she doesn't have Niu Colu's approval, it would be disrespectful, and now with this message, it will be completely different.

When she was leisurely playing with Bao Cheng, Liang Jiugong appeared, and listening to his message, Sang Zi thought deeply slightly.

One tael of silver for a hundred sweet potato seedlings

Two taels of silver and one stone of corn

Imagine that the price of good rice is only one tael of silver and one stone, and the price of wheat is even lower, and one or two silver can buy four stones, such a price difference is really too great.

The key is that she knows that things like corn and sweet potatoes are not worth any money at all, and at this time, since Kangxi is willing to be the wronged leader, she is naturally happy to let her waist bulge.

Zhishu Zhihua was left by her to take care of the shop pΓΉ farm for herself, and now because of Baocheng, she brought these two people into the palace, and she decided to let the two of them take charge of the purchase of seedlings this time.

Sang Zi, who was idle, asked people to go to the treasury to get gold, silver, jewelry, jade, jade and other things, and put them in front of Xiao Baocheng, she wanted to cultivate Baocheng's temperament to accumulate wealth from an early age, lest he think that he was a brother, and ignore the family business that he had earned with great difficulty.

"Zhishu girl, can this seedling really be used as a two-pillar?"

Tong Guogang looked at the sweet potato seedlings more than two feet long in his hand and asked curiously.

"Well, just cut it in the middle and you can use this sweet potato seedling as two. As he spoke, Zhishu divided the sweet potato seedlings in his hand into two sections.

Looking at the two seedlings in his hand, Tong Guogang was a little dumbfounded, he didn't think about the difference in price, he didn't have to think about it to know what the consequences would be.

"Lord Wang, what should we do?" Tong Guogang looked at Fuquan in embarrassment and asked, he is really worried about the emperor now, there is only so much silver in the treasury, and it was very difficult to buy these seedlings, but now he doesn't have to think about it to know that the emperor's treasury is going to be empty again.

Fuquan also knew his embarrassment, but he couldn't do anything about it, could he let a big man bully a woman? I remembered that Liang Jiugong jokingly said this morning, when Niang Niang was leaving, she specially instructed that the palace had handed over her most intimate person to you to take care of, and you couldn't bully the people in the palace while the palace was away.

"I don't know. ”

Fuquan looked at Lord Tong Guogang and replied. There was also a sad look on his face, he also knew that the emperor's treasury really didn't have much silver, but the emperor also needed silver to buy things, could he give less silver because it was his nobleman's thing?

Tong Guogang is really stuffed, he also wants to solve this matter well, but this matter is really not so easy to solve, if he doesn't get it right, he will have to spend twice the price, and this price is not up to him alone.

Looking at the books around him, Tong Guogang's heart was even worse, if the master was there, he could still talk about the price, but the person around him was just a maid of others, could he talk about such an important thing to a slave?

I really felt embarrassed, he couldn't ask the emperor at this time, his eyes turned, he had to look at Prince Yu Fuquan beside him, no matter what, there was a prince here, and he also had a bottom in his heart.

"Lord Yu, originally a hundred sweet potato seedlings cost one or two silver, but now the sweet potato seedlings can be used as two, at such a price, if we want to buy, we will at least spend twice as much silver, such a deficit, the emperor can't explain it at all. As he spoke, he looked at the sweet potato seedlings in his hand, and then at Fuquan.

"This king also knows, but this is a matter, we can't let us bully a woman!"

Fuquan glanced at the Zhishu beside him.

Hearing this, Tong Guogang was even more congested, he hadn't forgotten what Liang Jiugong had told him this morning, but what could he do? The emperor was his own nephew, could he, who was an uncle, not think about him?

"Lord Yu, otherwise, let's find Lord Guo Luoluo, hoping to find a solution. Tong Guogang looked helplessly at Fuquan and proposed a proposal. He actually wanted to discuss the problem with the original owner, but the question was that he could see a lady who wanted to?

"Well, that's all there is to it. ”

Fuquan nodded helplessly and agreed.

Tong Guogang hurriedly instructed the people around him to invite Lord Guo Luoluo, he only hopes that Lord Guo Luoluo can be the master of the noble lady and take care of this matter personally, when the time comes, he will not have to offend the mother in the palace, but also save a lot of silver for the emperor.

Zhishu looked at the two people in front of her with this embarrassed look, and felt funny in her heart, she also knew that this matter was not small, and she also knew that they were afraid of spending more money, but she didn't want her master to suffer, seeing that they went to invite the master's Ama to go, she didn't care too much, slowly walked to the table and made a cup of tea for them, and then looked at them: "The prince and the lord have to wait for the master, and the time is not short, why don't you taste tea here for a while!"

Knowing that he would have to wait for a long time, Tong Guogang made a gesture of invitation to Fuquan, and the two returned to their seats and sat down, picking up the tea brewed on the table.

Fuquan gently sniffed the tea in the cup, and then took a sip gently, he raised his head slightly, looked at Zhishu and asked: "Zhishu girl, I don't know what the girl has to tell when she comes out?"

Tong Guogang's actions were stunned, he also wanted to know what advice the noble lady had when he came out, you know, knowing each other and knowing oneself can survive a hundred battles, if he can hear something from the words of the book, he will also have a bottom line when he contacts Lord Guo Luoluo.

The mother didn't say anything, only said that she couldn't let the land she bought be empty. ”

Zhishu said with a slight smile. She knew the intentions of these two, nothing more than wanting to find out the meaning of the master from her own words, but who did she know the book, as the housekeeper and slave that the master relied on the most, could she be trapped by them?

Fuquan didn't hear anything useful, and asked again: "I heard that the noble lady Niangniang bought a lot of land, I don't know, what is Niangniang going to plant?"

"These ladies have already planned it. As he spoke, Zhishu's face showed a big smile, and then: "Niangniang now has a total of forty-three plots of land, of which there are about fourteen pieces of mountain slopes and ravines, and in these places, the master told that all the precious drought-tolerant trees should be planted, and let people build a wall with mountain stones, and then dig a mountain spring at the foot of the mountain, and when the time comes, some chickens and ducks and other livestock will be raised in it in exchange for silver." ”

"Sixteen of them are fertile fields, and the master ordered them to be planted into sweet potatoes, corn and other things, but now the emperor wants to buy all the sweet potato seedlings, and the master has to plant them into cotton, melons, fruits, etc., leaving thirteen pieces of land, and the master has people planting other things. ”

"Something else?" Tong Guogang looked at Zhishu with some confusion, and then asked: "The noble lady doesn't know what species are planted on these plots of land?"

"Five of them were planted into flower beds, and the remaining eight were planted into medicinal herbs and other things. ”

Zhishu looked at Tong Guogang and replied again.

Hearing this, Tong Guogang didn't find anything he wanted, and tasted a little cold tea in his hand with some disappointment.
