Chapter 48 Buying a House and Land

If you really want to talk about it, everything is still in the emperor's hands, even if Steward Zhuang is not in the mansion, there are secret servants who pay close attention to the whereabouts of Zhao Youqian and his wife, but those are secretly after all, and they are not as convenient as Steward Zhuang's actions on the surface.

Although Steward Zhuang was shocked by Sun Siyuan's words, he came back to his senses after a while, and only felt that Sun Siyuan was very interesting, like a child. He is the chamberlain of the palace, and he has not married a wife and had children when he is over forty years old, and when he looks at Sun Siyuan at this time, he has a feeling of looking at his daughter, and his eyes are full of kindness.

He was a person sent by the emperor, so naturally it was impossible to really carry the things in the house to sell, but in the evening, dozens of people came, and in an afternoon's effort, they dug up and removed most of the old mountains and rocks in the house, and replaced them with all kinds of flowers.

This August day, it is a good time for the purple and red, although these flowers are temporarily transplanted, but they are all blooming, they are cleaned up, the flowers are green and beautiful, and the whole Zhao Mansion has become bright and moving.

Less solemn and more vigorous, but a little vulgar. Of course Sun Siyuan doesn't care, she is in her teenage years, why should she make the place where she lives so serious and upright.

Sun Siyuan felt that the emperor was not only good but wanted to kill Zhao Youqian, and he would change it when he said in the house, and he would not stop it or delay it. In this way, as long as she does not seek power and the emperor does not seek his life, the two sides can still live in peace.

And...... Sun Siyuan smiled, she had thought about how to promote the development of science and technology in this world before, but there was no suitable opportunity to think about it.

She also wanted to find the ruler directly, but she felt that people were soft-spoken, so she rashly came forward and was either directly executed as a "demon woman", or she was imprisoned and ******** invented for them. It's risky to think about it, so you can simply develop slowly among the people first, and then talk to the ruler if you have the opportunity.

It's good now, I skipped the middle steps all of a sudden, and became a "divine messenger" directly, although the emperor still has some doubts about her identity, but in the following days, the more things she makes, the more she can prove her identity. and will not be regarded as an abnormal "witch" as she originally imagined.

"My ability is great, and I'm afraid of myself!" During the meal, Sun Siyuan boasted in her heart and couldn't help but speak out.

Steward Zhuang was eating with him and his wife, and after hearing her headless words, he couldn't help but think about the deep meaning. caught a glimpse of Zhao Youqian with a smile on the corner of his mouth, looking like a fool, and his eyes were extremely spoiled.

Zhao Youqian really looks like the emperor, but his temperament at this time is really the same as the emperor. Even in the face of the queen of her childhood sweetheart, the emperor will not easily show his love.

"Alas......" Steward Zhuang sighed in his heart and buried his head in eating. He is a housekeeper, and he is considered a slave in this house, but he eats the food cooked by his master. There is no one in the capital who revolves around the pot like Zhao Youqian, maybe it is really the emperor's heart!

"Siyuan, I want to buy a house in the suburbs and start the 'soy sauce' business, what do you think?" did not shy away from the housekeeper of Zhuang, Zhao Youqian brought it up directly at the dinner table.

Steward Zhuang is the emperor's person, Zhao Youqian naturally knows that he is now frank in front of Steward Zhuang to say his plan, that is, to completely expose himself in front of the emperor, so that the emperor can see his posture: live his own small life, not rash and abrupt, nor deliberately hide it.

"Well, okay, it just so happens that I still have a lot of recipes in my hand, you can take them and study them together." Sun Siyuan smiled skillfully, Zhao Youqian's rice is getting better and better, and if it goes on like this, she doesn't want to cook by herself.

With the 100 catties of gold rewarded by the emperor, Zhao Youqian made it much easier to do things, he bought a small mansion on the side of the official road in the suburbs of Beijing, and also enclosed a lot of land near the house, preparing to build a house by himself. There are also red bricks in the capital now, and buying some red bricks to build a house by yourself can also best suit your heart.

Zhao Youqian just paid for these things, and then handed them over to the Zhuang housekeeper to do it, after all, the Zhuang housekeeper is the nominal housekeeper, so he naturally contributes diligently. He was quite pleased, at least he didn't have to ask the emperor for money, as a high-ranking chamberlain, it was still easy for him to buy a house and land outside - no one dared to make things difficult for the people around the emperor, even if he was only the butler of the Zhao Mansion now.

However, in two or three days, the title deed was handed over to Zhao Youqian, and Zhao Youqian changed hands and gave it to Sun Siyuan. Sun Siyuan pinched a few pieces of paper in her hand, only to feel that her own property was getting more and more, houses and land, this is all real estate!

If you continue like this, won't you want to become a landlord's wife? It's a little exciting to think about!

"If we have money, let's go buy some workers tomorrow." Lying on the bed, Sun Siyuan and Zhao Youqian discussed the manufacture of soy sauce, after the first two purchases, she has become accustomed to human transactions, and the people she buys do not have to pay wages, and they are loyal and reliable, but three meals a day and a few clothes a year are really cost-effective.

As for human rights? Sun Siyuan looked at the oil lamp in the room and thought silently. In view of the current state of social development, it is impossible to cut off human trafficking, and there is no need to be too entangled in it, but it is better to develop education, first change people's concepts, and then slowly try to do so. At the very least, people's living standards are not bad now, and the number of people who sell their children and daughters because of poverty is gradually decreasing.

Early the next morning, the two went to the place where the population was traded in the western suburbs of the capital, where there were two rows of houses opposite the door, which belonged to the official family; Occasionally, there were private transactions, all of which were carried out in the open space between the houses.

"Let's just buy a few strong laborers, the little girl doesn't want it, and the husband and wife can consider it." Sun Siyuan discussed with Zhao Youqian like this, she didn't want to get some flowers and plants around Zhao Youqian, what if Zhao Youqian was seduced? You must know that Zhao Youqian is now very tall and mighty, handsome and handsome, plus he has some money in his hand, it is difficult to make a little maid or something, and people have thoughts that they shouldn't have.

"Hmm." Zhao Youqian agreed, originally, he didn't plan to have a little girl and a little woman, in his heart, he was still a man who worked neatly.

There was no one outside, so Sun Siyuan pulled Zhao Youqian into the façade of the official house. There was already a person in this room who was picking people, and there was a row of people for him to choose from, and he picked and chose for a long time, asked for two little girls, paid the silver on the spot, one hundred and fifty taels, and left.

Sun Siyuan watched the whole process, and a mouthful of old blood choked in her throat and couldn't get up. What about the most basic trust between people, isn't it twenty taels of silver per person? It turns out that the people in the capital, even if they sell it, are it more expensive than other places? What should I do, if we don't buy it, is it okay to go back to Tongzhou County to buy people? Sun Siyuan looked at Zhao Youqian silently and conveyed her thoughts with her eyes.
