Gui Yuxia said: "Of course it's true. The list will be announced tomorrow, but now that the policy has changed, we haven't posted the list yet, and some people are already preparing to buy land in the Acropolis and open up wasteland. The city lord discussed with everyone for a while, and decided to set aside an area for us, the city officials, to buy it ourselves. Then, let the rest of the land be auctioned, and the price will be high. However, this is only because of the acropolis that it is so tight. The land far from the Acropolis, mostly mountainous, and those still have no competition. ”

Gui Jinxia hurriedly asked: "How much land has the eldest sister on the edge of the city divided?" ”

Gui Yuxia said: "I only got 500 acres of land. If you want. There are exactly five families, each with a hundred acres of land. In fact, these lands on the edge of the city are not interesting, and the wait is like what we did in Qingchun City, which was reclaimed and sold at a high price, earning three or five hundred taels of silver, which is laborious and tiring. Anyway, my big cow said that he mainly focused on those mountains far away from the Acropolis, and was preparing to build a big Zhuangzi in each of the three Acropolis. What do you see? ”

Gui Jinxia's mind turned the fastest and said: "Each family can only have a hundred acres, and this is still the situation where the eldest sister's family gives up." In this way, 100 acres is reclaimed, and according to the price of Qingchun City, it is only more than 300 taels. But I still have to open up the wasteland, and I still want to hire people, which is not hard enough. It's better to forget it, let's give up this 100 acres of land. We are also the same as Brother Da Niu, it is better to choose a Zhuangzi that is a little farther away and plant all sugarcane. It is also possible to grow sugarcane in the mountains. Now our family's sugar mill produces sugar that is sold to Dachu, which is very profitable, but sometimes the raw materials can't keep up, and it would be good if we could grow sugarcane with a few more big Zhuangzi. ”

No one else was silent. Gui Yinxia thought that she didn't want her two sisters, and she didn't want to forget about her own family. Now my family mainly grows crops, and there is no comparison with the business of my brothers and sisters, so it would be nice if I could find a business to do. When the eldest sister is free, she has to discuss this matter with the eldest sister, the eldest sister and her sister and wife have a wide range of faces, and they will definitely be able to think of a good way for their own family.

Gui's daughter-in-law's heart was racing. The family is now mainly farming. If only I could take down these hundreds of acres. It's not that you can have an income of nearly a thousand taels of silver, it seems that you have to discuss it with your in-laws when you go back. It's best for the old couple to come forward and say it to Gui Yuxia.

Gui's second daughter-in-law listens to Gui Er's everything. Gui Er's business is so good now, shouldn't he inform the big herdsmen of the barbarian tribes who are familiar with each other, and let them also go to the Acropolis to establish pastures, so that they can raise more cattle. The more sheep you have, the more milk you can supply your family. In this way, we can alleviate the increasing demand of customers.

Qi Yufen's mind was also spinning. She came late and didn't catch up with the reclamation of Qingchun City, so now the family is still working for her younger brother. However, the daughter has already been promised to the official's house. is still the boss of his brother-in-law, and the Chen family is also very rich now. It should be a large dowry.

If this money is good, will it be possible to get more land in the Acropolis? Seemingly. The younger siblings have to fight for more of these 500 acres of land.

This meal, everyone has different thoughts. But I was still happy to eat. Especially looking at the children at the next table, I was very happy. Now Gui Yuxia has a son, Gui has three children, Gui Er, and Yinxia are all one child. Gui Jinxia is also three children. Qi Yufen is older, and the children are all older, she has three sons, two daughters, the eldest daughter is getting married, and the younger daughter and three sons are all in school. Didn't attend today's banquet.

Rao is like this, and there are many people at the children's banquet, which is very lively.

In the water pavilion, the men's gathering is indispensable to push the cup and change the lamp. Today's drinks are all jade ice roast produced by Chen Wenhui's family. Da Niu is rich, and he often has to entertain merchants from Da Chu, so naturally he has a lot of good wine at home.

After three rounds of drinking, Da Niu said: "Now we have settled down in Qingchun City, we all have houses, manors, and some have businesses. We can't just stop there. No matter how busy I am now, I often have to find time to go to night school. He also made friends with the disciples of the black family. They are all smart people, and the black family has countless treasures. For example, I used to just dry the fragrant flowers I had harvested, and then sell them to the merchants of Dachu. In this way, it is more profitable to burn than to grow crops. However, there are limitations. For example, if it rains on a cloudy day, especially in the rainy season, it is difficult to dry fragrant flowers, and if you don't do it well, those fragrant flowers will spoil and lose a lot of money. Later, I befriended a disciple of the Black Family at a banquet. He helped me think of a way, there is a technology that their black family has invented before, which can further process fragrant flowers. Later, the county lord's family came to Yizhou Island and brought with them the technology of refining perfumes, which is now sold in the patent office. As soon as I heard about it, I ran to buy this technology, which is really expensive. It cost me 20,000 taels of silver at once. The money earned went in, and it was far from enough, so there was no way, so I borrowed a large amount of money from the bank with Yuxia's face. ”

Luo Hu hurriedly asked: "It's just a technology that's so expensive?" ”

The big cow said, "Isn't it? At that time, the county lord's family sold the technology of hatching chickens and ducklings, and each county sold one copy, which was 10,000 taels of silver. There are a lot of people who buy it. ”

Luo Hu said: "Then aren't you very poor now?" ”

Da Niu smiled and said, "What do you see? After I bought the technology and came back, I transformed the workshop, half of it was still drying fragrant flowers, and half of it was made into perfume from those fragrant flowers that I didn't have time to dry. Well, flavors, to be exact. This essence is a precious thing, the merchants of Da Chu prefer the flavor to the dried flowers, it is simply in short supply, this is less than half a year, I have repaid half of the bank's account. ”

The audience was surprised: "Can you earn 10,000 taels of silver in half a year?" ”

Da Niu said: "That's because the yield of fragrant flowers can't go up." Therefore, I plan to take advantage of this opportunity to build the Acropolis, like a bank loan, in the edge of the three Acropolis, where the land is open and cheap, to build three large estates, specializing in planting fragrant flowers, so that I can not make more money? ”

Luo Hu thought about it and said: "Speaking of which, I used to make a lot of money as a sugar extraction workshop. However, now there are too many sugar mills, and the price of jaggery is getting lower and lower. I should also find a way, if I can buy a patent and make snowflake candy, that's the real money-making thing. Brother Niu, do you know anyone from the Patent Office? Tomorrow you take me to see it. If I can buy the technology of snowflake candy, I also want to take out a bank loan, buy technology, and build a Zhuangzi in the Acropolis, a variety of sugar cane, so that I will definitely make more money. Hehe, our family has more and more people and more children, so naturally we have to make more money. ”

Gui Er said with a smile: "I think, not only do I have to buy Zhuangzi in the Acropolis, but I should also open my dairy workshop in the three Acropolis, and I will definitely make more money." ”

Gui Da was thoughtful, Yinxia's husband Jun Weigang began to think, and said in a half-loud voice: "I'm just farming now, although the income is good, but it really can't be compared with doing business with you." Do you also introduce some business to me, and I also want to save a family business for my children. ”

Everyone laughed. Da Niu said: "If I have dinner with the merchants of Da Chu these days, I will sue you and see if you can find any good business from it." ”

Everyone chatted while drinking. Gui Laohan looked at the eldest son, the younger son, and the sons-in-law, and couldn't help but shake his head.

Da Niu's brother-in-law is an honest man who doesn't have an idea, just blindly drinking.

As a few people spoke, the topic jumped from the Acropolis to business, and then from business to the barbarians that Gui Er came into contact with. Da Niu said: "Gui Er, you often deal with those barbarians. What do you think of them? When we used to be in the capital, we hated barbarians so much that they ate people and didn't spit out bones. How dare you do business with them? ”

Gui Er frowned and said, "My barbarian friends are all very good. They are all straightforward men. Even the girls don't have as many things as our Da Chu's girls. Moreover, they are all hardworking and capable. Later, when I became acquainted with them, I became strange, and asked them why the barbarians we used to think were all burning, killing and plundering, but they were so good. ”

Everyone was busy listening with their ears pricked up.

Gui Er continued: "Tell my best brother Kuma, although they are also barbarians, they are the people of a small tribe among the barbarians. The status of the barbarians is very high. Those nobles, big tribes, and royalty are indeed arrogant and ferocious. However, these small tribes, not to mention bullying our Da Chu, are all bullied within the barbarians. Even the barbarians have a very barbaric rule, that is, the right of the virgin to the first night. ”

No one had heard of this, so they were busy asking what it was. Gui Er said: "The right of the first night, that is, the girls of the small tribe do not have their own right to the first night. When they reach adulthood, when they are about to get married, the head of the tribe will report it to the nobles of the big tribe, and these nobles will send people to choose beautiful maidens to serve them. As soon as the rest was moved, they were put to sleep. For the men of the small tribe are not worthy to enjoy the first night of a woman. ”

Everyone was extremely shocked, how could there be such a thing in the world.

Gui Da asked: "Brother, was the Kumar family you knew the same before?" ”

Gui Er said: "Big Brother Kuma is the same. Kuma's wife, Melillon, broke a melon for a noble boy in the first place. Then you can marry him. Kumar's younger brother is even more pitiful, he has a fiancée, very beautiful, was taken away by the nobles, has never been heard from, whether it is life or death. ”

Da Niu couldn't help but say: "It seems that these barbarian people are also poor people. (To be continued)
