Chapter 165: Dowry and Congratulatory Gifts

Shan Cheng was overjoyed when he heard this, "Second Senior Brother, this is agreed?"

"It's really exciting, but there are still a lot of issues that need to be clarified."

"Don't be in a hurry, take your time, take your time."

"I want to know, in terms of land purchase, standing in the position of the county order, how big do you want me to be? How much can you help me? Yun Shu's eyes looked at Shan Cheng clearly.

"Huh?" Shan Cheng didn't react. I just said that I don't care about favors and favors, hello brothers, hello me, hello everyone, I turned my face and began to think carefully about merit and benefit.

Yunshu noticed Shan Cheng's stunnedness, "Huh? Is there anything wrong? ”

"No, no."

Yun Shu also said just now that the effort spent on the field is for profit. Although the name is enough to make her heartfelt, it is not enough to make her move. Talking about profit is also in line with the purpose of his trip.

"I see that the last time the second senior brother bought land, it was connected to the previous land, and this time I can help the second senior brother try to turn the purchased land into pieces, subsidize some in the name of government experiments, or let those landlords sell land at a low price."

"Anything else?" Yunshu asked without blushing.

"And? Well, this matter is said to be thanks to the second senior brother for his previous help, and in fact, I have benefited a lot, so if the second senior brother needs to mention it, if I can do it, I will not refuse. ”

Yun Shu smiled brightly when she heard this, because this was very familiar, she used to say similar things before. This was originally intended to reassure others, but now it sounds good when it comes out of other people's mouths.

"Second Senior Brother doesn't believe in my sincerity?"

"No, no. I believe you. I believe that the cooperation of our brothers and sisters will make Qinghe County better! Just let me think about it. ”

"Yes, no hurry. I'll come back to Master in a few days, and then we'll discuss it again. ”

After Shan Cheng entered the house, Yun Shu called Yun Qi over and asked him to call Yun Mao and Tian Meimiao, and by the way, he talked to Steward Yun about the purchase of land to see if he had anything to explain.

As soon as he was done, Zhang Jing came over, and Zhang Ling followed behind embarrassedly.

"Sit down, you're welcome." Before Zhang Jing could speak, Yun Shu rushed to the kitchen again: "Ying Niang, add a pot of tea." ”

"Okay, Childe." Bai Xiang hurried out of the kitchen.

Ziyun and the others returned to the capital, and Bai Xiang followed Yunshu to Baishu Village to take care of her food, clothing, and daily life.

There are three guests here today, Bai Xiang and Ying Niang have been helping Hua Niang Zhang Luo in the kitchen.

"Isn't it too busy? You can go over there and call Xiao Mian, Yu Shen, or any kid to come and help. By the way, talk to the grandmother over there and ask her to arrange two people to come over to help in turns every day. You also teach more. ”

"Xie Gongzi's volume. I'll watch. ”

Yun Shu took the time to look at Brother Zhang Jing.

Zhang Jing was still watching the back of Bai Xiang leaving. Yun Shu turned his head to Zhang Ling and smiled: "Brother Ling, what's wrong today? Some girls are embarrassed, but it's pretty good. ”

Zhang Ling's face became redder and redder, and he pushed his brother.

Zhang Jing came back to his senses, "What? What's wrong? ”

"What's wrong with you brothers? Come to talk to me, I've been asking for a long time, why hasn't anyone replied to me in the state? ”

"Huh? Who was that just now? Why haven't you seen it before? Zhang Jing looked at Bai Xiang's back and said.

"The person who took care of my daily life just came over the other day. What's wrong? ”

"Nope. It's Koling's business. I'm an unreliable, Xiaoling is also older, I thought it would be better to find someone to take care of him, and I told him about my family a few days ago. ”

"That's a good thing! It seems that Brother Ling is very satisfied with the girl. Is the date set? Yunshu laughed.

Zhang Ling was even more embarrassed.

Zhang Jingdao: "It's set on the fifth day of the ninth month. Two rough men don't understand anything, and they haven't been able to find time to see you these days. ”

"There are only two months left, is there anything I need help with?"

"I'm waiting for the tree, you're here. This time, I came to see you, and I wanted to see if you could draw out Ying Niang or anyone around you to help Zhang Luo Zhang Luo, those miscellaneous things really wanted to torture me crazy. Zhang Jing complained like a burden.

"That's Brother Ling's marriage, why are you so impatient as a brother?"

"Tree help! I'll take it to heart! ”

"The two brothers came all the way and opened their mouths to me again, how can I not help?"

"Tree, you're such a savior!"

"It's also a coincidence, I just married my personal maid a few days ago, and it was Bai Xiang who helped on the side, this time, maybe I can help the two brothers."

"Does the tree have a personal maid? How come I've never seen one? ”

"I left her in Jiyang City to prepare for marriage, and I didn't bring her over."

"Shu'er treats the maids so well, and she is talented and strategic, whose daughter marries you in the future, it is really a blessing for three lives!" Zhang Jing got Yunshu's promise and praised without hesitation.

This time it was Yunshu's turn to blush.

Before leaving, Yunshu asked Baixiang to take the eldest two of the orphans, thirteen-year-old Rainbow Dash and twelve-year-old Yunzang, to Zhang's house to help with them.

Yunshu specially instructed Yunbao and Yunzang to listen to Baixiang's words, always pay attention, study everything, and come back to question them.

Rainbow Dash and Yunzang nodded solemnly.

Yun Shu gave a red seal to Zhang Ling again, "Brother Ling has not been easy to be alone all these years, Brother Jing is a little confused, I will give you the gift money first, in case of emergency." ”

"This, this is not in order." Zhang Ling excused himself.

How can there be a wedding that hasn't been held yet, and the gift money is received first? Yun Shu was worried that Zhang Jing had been fooling around all these years, and Zhang Ling was young and didn't have enough silver for a wedding, so he gave him fifty taels of silver.

"When I first met Brother Ling, I was able to get Brother Ling to help me in my life, and I was seriously injured in order to save me, and I have always been grateful to my heart. Be sure to take it. We must be happier and happier in the future! At Yunshu's insistence, Zhang Ling accepted the red envelope.

Stand under the big tree at the head of the village and watch the group go away. Yu Hong said: "Are you worried about your life, did you even arrange your brother's wedding?" ”

"No, no, I don't understand anything, how much to do. It's just that Bai Xiang brought two small ones to help. ”

"What did Shan Cheng talk to you about under the laurel tree in the morning?"

Yunshu smiled mischievously: "I want to buy a piece of land and make a dowry for my brother so that I can marry my sister-in-law."

Yu Hong couldn't cry or laugh, "It's nonsense again." When did I say I was going to get married? ”

"Then I want to prepare a piece of land for Master's retirement, brother, do you think Master thinks I'm implying that he is old and wants to beat me?"

"What do you think?"

"Well, if I prepare a piece of land for my father-in-law to study medicinal herbs, my father-in-law must be very happy! Or the temper of the stepfather! Yunshu muttered to himself.

"What's wrong with you? Are gifts given to the ground? ”

"Shan Cheng took a fancy to my blood capital for planting underground, and hoped that I would buy more land in Qinghe County."

"You fool promised him?"

"Still under consideration. What do you think? ”

"How long will it take to recover the money you spent on buying land, reducing rent, and repairing water conservancy?"

"Grain production is still increasing, and rent reductions will continue. To return to the capital, at least we have to harvest the autumn grain next year. ”

That is to say, if you buy land again, it will take two years to return to the capital. What is the expected return after the return on investment? ”

"If the tax remains the same, it will be one or two percent more than before."

"So, you don't farm to make money, but to hope that the tenants will have a better life?"

"To make money, it is enough to have a library and a Yishengtang. Does brother know? Before I left Beijing, I invested in a Yishengtang pharmacy in Beijing, which was not small, and the income was very good last year, and a branch opened this year. ”

"It's rare to have someone like you who doesn't value money."

"How could I not value money? It's just that to me, people are more important than money, and some people are more important! Yun Shu looked at Yu Hongdao.

"If the real country can't be defeated, the government is stable, and you don't want to make money, land, you can buy it if you want. The top of the hierarchy likes you as a rich fool who is willing to bleed. ”

"Really? I'm going to give my brother a dowry of 3,000 acres of land, are you still stupid? ”

"Stupid home!"

"Why?"

"I didn't want to marry, and it's useless to prepare."

"Sooner or later, I'll use it."

"You don't believe I'm going to be a hit?"

"I believe it."

"Then you don't need it."

"Then make a congratulatory gift!"

Yu Hong: ...... I've never seen such a dead beggar asking for a gift. However, I was happy to refuse. Sure enough, many people are not to blame!

A day later, Steward Yun, Yun Mao, and Tian Meimiao gathered in Yun Mansion and had a profound discussion on the matter of "Han Xin points troops, the more the merrier".

In the end, Yunshu decided to buy 3,000 acres of land in the names of Yan Shizhen, Xin Tanzhi, and Yu Hong, or divide it into two and hand it over to Yunmao and Tian Meimiao to be in charge.

The accounts of the three fields are independent and managed by the Yun family, but the three of them can withdraw them at will.

Yan Shi really said that if he had met Yun Shu like this back then, he would not have been beaten by the whole family because he had moved the family's money.

Xin Tan's eyes were hot and said, if there were more Yunshu like this in the DPRK, the border army would have been trained a long time ago!

Yu Hong is still the same two words: fool!

Although nominally, everyone is a person with an industry, but the clothing, food, housing and transportation are all contracted by Yunshu on weekdays, and no one has a special need to move those real estates.

In order to better manage and share the hard work of Yunmao, Yunshu made a long-term plan: encourage them to pay attention to cultivating a few small stewards to assist in management.

After the decision, the three of them began to look for a suitable source in Qinghe County.

Shan Cheng had the courage to tighten his belt and use the county's finances to carry out in-depth improvements in the water conservancy of the 9,000 acres of land. In the name of the county's financial expenditure, Shan Cheng really lost a handful of hair.

Time flies, and it's another year. On the militia training field in the county, Yu Hong and Yunshu have begun to train and are starting the first round of duels.

"I never thought of leading troops to fight against my brother, brother, you will be merciful, right?"

The cloud tree has grown more than a head, and the person looks even thinner and more handsome, like a delicate and clear yellow plum in a group of reckless men. Although his skills have risen sharply, his speech is still harmonious and discussable.

Before, the cloud tree was not very long, which made Yan Shizhen worried, and then it grew by leaps and bounds, and Yan Shizhen was worried that it would leave growth marks on her body because of this, so she prepared medicine and asked Bai Xiang to paint her body every day. Yun Shu, who was already very tired from daily exercises, often asked Bai Xiang to help her apply while reading medical books, and sometimes fell asleep while applying it.

With so many burdens on your body, how can you hold on if you don't grow up quickly?

At this time, Yunshu was dressed in simple white armor, and the head of the spear was removed, and a wooden stick wrapped in cotton and cloth was stained with lime powder. Behind him, a team of reckless men also held wooden sticks, murderous.
