Chapter 146: Thirteen Princesses

It didn't take long for the people who went to Hujiazhai to listen to them come back, and the situation was almost understood. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

It turned out that the family that sold the land was strong on the outside, and although there were some sales in the capital, the business situation was not very ideal.

There is only one son in the family, who was in his forties and became a jinshi, and the old man of the master's family is a son in his old age, who is already in his seventies, and his eyes are not good, and he has no relatives and no reason, so he only went to Beijing to join his son, so those lands must be sold.

The old man of that family has planted the land all his life, and he has a lot of affection for the land, and it is all handed down by his ancestors, so he is a little reluctant to sell it, let alone sell it cheaply, and even if it is sold cheaply, it is cheaper, and few people can afford such a large piece of land, unless it is sold in pieces.

Chang Youwei thinks that this land is not easy to sell, first, the owner does not want to sell it separately, and second, he is reluctant to sell, and he has to give more money to sell, but who can afford it.

Fifteen taels per acre of land, and 3,000 acres of land is forty-five thousand taels, even Mu Lin can't afford it, Mu Lin brought a lot of money, Chang Youwei knows, Mu Lin paid him the bottom.

Chang Youwei wanted to curry favor with Mu Lin, to be precise, he wanted to curry favor with the Thirteenth Prince, so he wanted to help Mu Lin buy this land and do it beautifully, but Mu Lin didn't have so much money, so what should I do, there was only one way, that is, to let the owner's family sell it cheaply, so that it was possible to buy the land.

However, Chang Youwei didn't dare to make his own decisions, brought Mu Lin over, and told Mu Lin his thoughts in a hurry, he wanted to use some means to coerce the family to sell the land.

Mu Lin disagreed with him doing so: "People are not willing to sell cheaply, there is nothing wrong, this is human nature, in reason, we can't play tricks to persecute people, the price is unreasonable, you can talk about it, you can't use power to bully others." ”

Bully people with power, Mu Lin will not do it.

The price can be discussed, if you buy 3,000 acres of land at once, shouldn't you give some discounts, won't it be so unreasonable?

Under normal circumstances, it should be cheaper than buying a few acres or a dozen acres of land, at least one acre must be cheaper than one or two, or even more, because such a big buyer is difficult to find, and it is hard to find.

Mu Lin can also save money, and she also hopes that the land can be cheaper, Mu Lin is not so adobe, so she will not be wronged and waste her hard-earned money.

Is the money so easy to earn, she has worked hard to save this money!

What kind of calculation Chang Youwei made, Mu Lin knew it clearly, from his words, Mu Lin was sure that he must have known that the Thirteenth Prince was his partner, and wanted to tie himself up, and the Thirteenth Prince, if he really did what he wanted and bought the land, he would owe him a favor, and the Thirteenth Prince would also owe him a favor.

Mu Lin is very self-aware, she thinks that she doesn't have the ability to repay Chang Youwei's favor, and she doesn't want to owe anyone a favor, and she doesn't want to be blackmailed to repay her.

Mu Lin is not a child, in fact, she knows very well the purpose of Chang Youwei's doing, Chang Youwei just wants to use her as a ladder to climb the wall and climb the high branch of the Thirteenth Prince.

But this kind of thing, what will the thirteen princes think when they know about it, after all, it is not a glorious thing, it will affect their own image, and it will affect the thirteen princes' perception of themselves.

Mu Lin is still very good at accounting for gains and losses......

Therefore, after Mu Lin probably figured out the situation, he put aside Chang Youwei and went directly to Hujiazhai to find the old man who sold the land, but the old man was extremely stubborn, he was not cheaply sold alive or dead, and the price did not drop at all, and in the end Mu Lin had no choice but to go back to Hangzhou.

However, Mu Lin still plans to buy that piece of land, and she plans to talk about it later.

The old man who sold the land is seventy-five years old this year, and he can't manage the land himself, and he doesn't have a capable assistant, so this land must not be planted, and it must be sold.

For the sake of his son's future, being an official is not so easy to do, and all aspects have to be counted, which requires money, so the old man wants to sell more, and he will not reduce the price of whoever buys the land, and there is a reason for this.

But as soon as Mu Lin left, he regretted it, his son was forty years old and could not afford to wait.

Without money, his son has nothing to do in his life, he won the Jinshi, only became a seven-grade official in the capital, and he was a small fish and shrimp in the Ministry of Rites, and if he didn't make money, he would die and be a seven-grade official, and he was not a genius, if he was a genius, he would be discovered by the emperor by chance and have the hope of becoming a close minister of the emperor.

The old man is counting on this piece of land to produce vegetables, with tens of thousands of taels of silver, to help his son develop, no matter how to do the prefect, three years of poor prefect, 100,000 snowflakes of silver, this is to say less, 200,000 can also be fished, if there is a shortage of fat, fish a patrol salt imperial history, millions are also it.

He called turning the family into a country and the land into an official......

The old man thinks that he is a smart person, and a smart person has to do smart things.

After Mu Lin left, Chang Youwei found a time, ran to Hujiazhai in person, and found the old man who sold the land: "Old man, you missed a good opportunity, do you know who the girl who bought the land is? It is very likely that the thirteenth princess in the future!"

Chang Youwei is naturally very close to this landlord's old wealth, and his son is a jinshi, so how can he get a little light on it.

This was in the case that Mu Lin did not agree to his tricks, and if Mu Lin had followed his advice, then his attitude towards this old landlord would have been different.

can rely on the thirteen princes, does he still care about a jinshi!

But Mu Lin didn't listen to his advice, so there was no need for him to offend the old landlord now, wouldn't it be better if he didn't offend both.

"Thirteen princesses, do you mean, she and the thirteen princes?" Zhou Yuanwai's two thumbs touched each other and gestured.

Zhou Yuanwai is the old man who sold the land, the landlord Lao Cai, and the old landlord.

"That's right. Chang Youwei ~ smiled and nodded, "You just know, don't tell outsiders." ”

"Will the thirteenth prince take a fancy to her? will he fall in love with a country girl?" Zhou Yuanwai was a little unconvinced.

"It's not just that she fell in love, it's just a hot pursuit, the thirteen princes have come to Hangzhou with her. ”

"Yes, how do I know this!" Zhou Yuanwai's intestines were repentant after hearing this, "If that's the case, then give her all the land for nothing, and I won't be able to suffer a loss, it's hard to do things without money, it's hard to do things without money, it's hard to do things without anyone with money, and all you spend is some unjust money, thirty or fifty thousand taels of silver, and you can't do anything with ten thousand taels of silver, in the end, money is still not as important as connections!"
