Chapter Seventy-Four: Conspiracy (2)

This may be the case in this world, but there are still people who have a passionate heart. No matter what their intentions were, they ran as hard as they could, trying to make some changes to the way of the world.

There are people who are poor, but they always believe that doing better is better than not doing well, or they are just making excuses for themselves. The result is already doomed and cannot be changed, so let yourself feel a little less guilty when the result comes.

This guilt is probably due to the idea of taking the world as one's own responsibility. It's just that Wang Ning seems to be a little ridiculous. Of course, Qin Lao is like this, what they think about is not only this superficial level, but in the end, they have not been able to depart from the Confucian set of self-cultivation and governing the country and leveling the world. It's just that the old man has some more practical ideas based on his own experience, and doing things is not really doing things.

The old man has worked hard for so many years, and the way of the world may have changed somewhat, but he knows that the entire new dynasty has actually rotted to the bone. From the temples and princes to the common people, everyone has always held a mentality of getting by. They still have hopes for the Rong people in the north, and fantasize that a few coins can appease each other, but the wolves want to eat people, let alone a pack of wolves.

What the old man has been trying to do all these years has actually come to the moment, he has only been retired for half a year, and he has almost been overthrown, even if Du Xian tries his best to maintain it, his set is basically the end of the road.

When the old man talked to Wang Ning about this, he must have regarded him as a close person, or just as he said, Wang Ning was at ease. It's just that in the face of a rock-hearted killer, how can a little family and country feelings be shaken?

Wang Ning was also happy to listen, and had the right to speak as a companion to the lonely elders.

Qin Lao couldn't help but sigh every time he saw everything he showed, he was used to it.

"If you really want to be a rich man, I'm afraid it's not so easy." The old man slowed down and said, "After all, you are an outsider, and if you touch the interests of the local gentry, they will inevitably make trouble for you. On the side of Jiangning Mansion, it must take care of the locals, and it is inevitable to listen to it and believe it. ”

Wang Ning nodded and said flatteringly: "Hasn't this always had a good relationship with you!"

The old man smiled: "The old man's name is not allowed for you to take out and bluff people."

"Hey......" Wang Ning disagreed, "I can sit face to face with you like this, and those who are interested will definitely be able to notice that the old man can bear to put it there, and no one with a clear eye will dare to mess with me." ”

"This is a clear display of fox and fake tiger power." The old man laughed and scolded.

"It's good to enjoy the shade under the big tree, I still understand this truth."

The old man sighed leisurely: "It's just that the old man's big tree can't cover much shade."

Wang Ning said: "At least I can protect me, a small person who is not in the stream."

The old man glared at him: "Since you have taken so many advantages in my name, do you want to share some of me?"

That's a joke.

Wang Ning said: "The old man really dares to ask for it, and I am willing to give it." Now I have bought more than 100 acres of paddy fields and a few mountains outside the city, and I can honor half of your old man. ”

Qin Lao's eyes bulged, and he asked with a little questioning: "You are a small person who is not in the stream, where did you get so much money?"

"Hmm...... This one...... Previously saved. Wang Ning smiled and said, "It's all in exchange for life." ”

If you exchange your life, you don't know whose life you have exchanged for so much money.

In fact, since last year's catastrophe, the value of paddy fields in the south of the Yangtze River has risen a lot, and it is said that it is not easy to buy so many paddy fields at this juncture, after all, there are many hidden interests behind an acre of land, and no one wants to sell them. But after Du Xian took office as the right minister, he implemented a new law and checked the fields in the world.

It was the Jiangning gentry, especially those who had many hidden fields and hidden households under their names, so they had to sell them on a large scale to minimize the loss, so although the market price was not low, the amount was too large, and Wang Ning took the opportunity to collect a lot.

Of course, this is also thanks to the same firm determination of Lord Huang Xiao, the prefect of Jiangning. Originally, Jiang Ning had such a file, Huang Xiao had no hope of promotion, and now that he encountered such an opportunity, he naturally would not let it go, and he also agreed with the new law, and spared no effort to implement it.

So a few typical examples were arrested, convicted, imprisoned, exiled, deterred those who were watching, and of course, reserved the last time, so the land change in Jiangning in the past few days can be said to be in full swing.

Wang Ning played with a troubled water, although the land in his hand was not proportional to the money spent, but he would be a wealthy person in the future.

In the future, it is enough to marry a few daughters-in-law.

What surprised him the most about this incident was the money in his name, and he finally knew why so many people took risks and lived a life of licking blood on the tip of a knife.

This time, the silver money he raised from the Four Seas Money Bank directly caused the world's No. 1 Money Bank to have a capital chain break in the Jiangnan region, and I am afraid that it will not be able to recover for half a year.

He still remembered the bitter expression of the big shopkeeper, like a dead father, which also made him feel refreshed.

There are a lot of calculations in my heart, and I am a little proud.

Qin Lao coughed lightly a few times and said, "What's the use of the old man asking for so many things, I can't make you underestimate the kid."

Wang Ning smiled: "Speaking of which, what good craftsmen does the old man have?" After a pause, in the old man's suspicious eyes, he continued to speak: "I plan to build a villa on that mountain, there are many masons in this city, but they can only do some tinkering things."

Old Qin snorted lightly and scolded with a smile: "It's to arouse the old man." Saying this, the old man still thought about it seriously, and then suddenly said, "Since you want to build a villa, you can't handle it." I heard that there is a man named Shen Jing in the city, you can go and look for him. ”

"Hey, thank you for mentioning it, it's repaired and invites you to stay for ten days and half a month."

Old Qin waved his hand: "The old man is really going to sit, aren't you afraid that someone will poke your backbone?"

Wang Ning thought about it, nodded, and said, "I'm going to plant some seasonal things over there, and I'll send you old when the time comes."

This was half joking and half serious, and the old man nodded, but he was not taboo.

smiled, the old man's eyes became serious again, just like before every time the stall was closed, but this time the question had a new meaning, of course, the meaning is still that meaning!

"Do you really plan to guard those acres of land and live this life?"

Wang Ning nodded: "I have also experienced the wind and rain that I should have experienced, and I have gone through a few times between life and death, and I am physically and mentally exhausted."

The old man stared at him and sighed, "But I don't know what you have experienced, which makes you so cold and disheartened."
