Buy land

"You're a female doll, you can't be a soldier, you know?" Chu Ying kept thinking that this guy had beaten himself 4 times just now, and he only hit 3 times, and he still had to return it.

When he arrived at the Lu Mansion, Lu Ming led Chu Ying to the account room, "0 taels of silver, take it to her." ”

Chu Ying's eyes widened in disbelief when she heard that it was 0 taels, so it was calculated that a bear's paw was more than 3 taels, which was much more than what Wang Qiyuan said, but it could also be that those who sold bear's paws before did not find the right person and sold them to the second dealer, so they sold relatively little, and it may be that Lu Ming put water on himself and deliberately gave more.

"No, Lu Ming, you give me 3 taels of silver first, and the rest will stay with you, I can't bring so much, and it's also eye-catching, you have time to help me find out if there is any land close to the stream, it's not too good, don't use it for farming, when the paper mill expands, you need more water, and the pond on my side is not enough."

"Okay, then I'll keep it for you. Your Grandpa Li is waiting for you at the city gate, and I won't let people send you. Lu Ming put the back basket with the copper plate on Chu Ying's back.

Chu Ying found Grandpa Li and asked how to buy the wasteland, Chu Ying saw that there was a wasteland next to the house, and there was no boundary wood on it, and asked Aunt Wang that it was an ownerless wasteland, and now that the age is not good, the land price should be cheaper.

"You look for Lizheng, you can exchange the land deed for silver money on wasteland, wasteland is laborious, there are many people in this village who are selling land, you can find a broker if you want to buy, it's too troublesome to do it yourself."

Grandpa Li took himself to a Hakka house by the way, because he said that he would come to the door tomorrow to talk in detail, and when he got home, Chu Ying gave Grandpa Li two liters of chestnuts.

"No, no, you can't ask for this, it's enough to give a few copper plates, life is not easy."

Chu Ying took Grandpa Li's hand and followed the small sack, "Grandpa Li, there is still a place for you to help in the future, then go, this chestnut can be eaten for a while after it is collected." ”

Grandpa Li patted Chu Ying's hand, "Thank you, girl, let's go." ”

On the second day, Li Yu came by car with a fork ruler to measure the ground, "Chu Ying's house?" Ay...... Little girl, I also have good land over there, and now some people are in a hurry to buy it, and the price is good, why don't you take a look? ”

"No, no, I don't have so much money, and I can't take care of it, so I think that when the wasteland is opened, I can plant some beans and wheat in the spring, and I will have some surplus, or I won't be able to last for the next year." Chu Ying didn't want to show that she was very wealthy, otherwise it would be bad if she was robbed at that time.

"Oh, that's right." Li Yuyuan still thought that someone wanted to buy the land that he was urging to sell could have a place to go, but he didn't expect that this was also a poor ghost.

"Don't worry, you won't lose any money in the middle."

Li Yu raised his eyebrows and smiled, this year is not good, a little money is naturally to be earned, rolled up his sleeves and prepared to start measuring the ground, "Which piece do you want to get which piece?" ”

"Just this way to the other side of the mountain." Chu Ying's side is just at the foot of the mountain, and this piece of land is a semicircle towards the road in front of Wang Yuyuan's house, and this place is still a little sloped, but it is very small.

"This is more than 5 acres, are you here, are there many people in the family? Did you plant it? Li Yu entered the courtyard just now, only to see Chu Ying and another girl in the show.

"It's good to have neighbors to help, but when the time comes, we will dig a pond and scrap some land." Chu Ying hasn't figured out what to plant yet, but it will be cheaper to buy some real estate now.

"You really have to dig a pool, you see this land, it's hard and dry, it's not a good land." Li Yu drew an outline similar to this piece of land on the ground that he began to measure, and then began to measure, and after waiting for a while to eat, he finally finished the measurement.

In fact, the original work of this amount of land did not have to be done by yourself, it should be done by the government in charge of the land, but who will help measure the land at this age, there was a land boundary for selling land before, and it was not clear that the government government sent someone to measure it, and it dragged on for almost half a month without moving, and finally it was done by himself.

"This is a total of 5 and a half acres, the rest of the little corners are not counted, they are all small heads, wait for me to bring the people of the government to visit, that is, to see, go through the motions, this wasteland is an acre to collect money and silver, this has not been good recently, the price has been lowered, and I will charge half a penny of hard work. If you want to do it quickly, you can give an extra half a dollar for the accommodation, or it won't take more than half a month to do it, and you can't do it yourself without a month. ”

This is the reason why Li Yu doesn't like to help with the wasteland business, he really doesn't make much, just earn an errand fee, and he can draw a lot of money from it if he is good, but for the sake of Grandpa Li's face, it can be regarded as a good deed.

Chu Ying was afraid of these trivial matters, so she asked a broker to do it, "It's better to hurry up, it's not good after the agricultural season, this autumn will be more than half a month away, and it will be inconvenient to open up the wasteland when it snows." ”

"Okay, then you prepare the money, I'll bring someone, and then we'll go to the government together." Chu Ying waited for a long time and finally saw Li Yu's carriage, and sure enough, as Li Yu said, the man just took a cursory look, walked around and got into the carriage.

"You bring the money, and we'll go to the government." When this arrived at the mansion, Li Yu nodded his head, all kinds of sycophants, and secretly stuffed silver money, although this Chu Ying is not very adaptable, but maybe what he does is to be exquisite.

"You kid do things, we are still relieved, so let's do it, have you brought the silver?" Chu Ying lined up five and a half pieces of silver on the low table.

"Well, hurry up and draft it over there, I'll look at it here." The fat-headed and big-eared officials were scattered in the side hall.

"Hey, okay, you see, it's almost winter, and there's no work to be done on this ground, so let's start next year." Li Yu and the official who did the work made a color. The wasteland can be tax-exempt for two years, and that piece of land is really not a good land, so the yamen nodded perfunctorily.

Waiting for Li Yu to write it and they stamped it, Chu Ying also pressed her finger, "Brothers, if you have time to drink tea, then you will leave in advance." ”

When he got out of the mansion, Li Yu's face drooped, but when he saw Chu Ying's reward, he smiled again, this is also a money fan. "Starting from the beginning of next year, you don't have to pay taxes for two years, you have to start counting this year, then it's a loss. I'm still very reliable. I'll send you back. ”

Waiting for Li Yu to put himself down when he arrived at the intersection, Chu Ying looked at the title deed with words written in his hand and stamped with several chapters and his fingerprints, and felt that he was one step closer to the landlord's wife.

However, looking at the wasteland overgrown with weeds and unresponsive when stepped on, Chu Ying felt that it would take a lot of effort to grow food, but it was still a good deal to spend a total of 6 and a half yuan.

I will start struggling tomorrow, but it is still a little cold to look at such a big piece of heart, maybe I should buy a better piece of land so that I can sow it immediately, but Chu Ying doesn't want to buy it even if he has the money, after all, this land is the closest to himself, and he will definitely have a look if he cultivates it well, and he will have to walk a long way to cultivate other land, and he won't know anything if he is stolen at that time.
