For the sake of Yan Zhenwu's face, the merchant surnamed Zhao originally wanted to sell the two Zhuangzi to Meng Zhen at a price of two thousand six hundred taels cheaply, but Meng Zhen didn't want to take advantage of the danger at this time.

Yan Zhenwu also resolutely refused to let him reduce the price, so after inspecting the two granges in the entity, Meng Hao bought the two granges in the hands of the merchant surnamed Zhao at the market price of 2,900 taels.

She gave Sun Yaren 2,950 taels, and Sun Yaren quickly helped her get the red deed.

At this point, Meng Zhen has two more medium-sized Zhuangzi under his name.

These two Zhuangzi, one has 80 acres of upper fields and 30 acres of middle fields, with a newly built second courtyard, and the other has 60 acres of middle fields, 40 acres of lower fields, and a small hill with more than 70 fruit trees.

The fruit trees on that hill are growing very well, and they can be exchanged for a lot of silver every year.

In addition, this Zhuangzi also comes with a two-entry courtyard with blue bricks and red tiles.

Meng Zhen bought these two Zhuangzi at the original price, but the merchant surnamed Zhao failed to thank his life-saving benefactor in terms of money, so after Meng Zhen and them left, this person specially sent a heavy gift to the door.

The person who came was his most trusted manager of the Zhao family, and the businessman surnamed Zhao was now busy dealing with the troublesome things at home, so he could only send his most trusted and relied on the big housekeeper to thank Yan Zhenwu for his life-saving grace on his behalf.

The housekeeper conveyed the deep gratitude of the businessman surnamed Zhao to Yan Zhenwu, and then relayed the kind words that the businessman surnamed Zhao said, such as "Just a small courtesy, please don't dislike it" and "In the future, our two families will be good together, and please ask Brother Yan to come to Zhao's house often" and other kind of polite words.

Yan Zhenwu accepted the gift, and then gave a thirty-year-old wild ginseng to the merchant surnamed Zhao as a return gift.

The businessman surnamed Zhao was injured and his physical vitality was somewhat damaged, and he is now busy dealing with follow-up matters every day, so it is still necessary to make more supplements.

So in addition to wild ginseng, the other three gifts that Yan Zhenwu gave him were all good supplements.

The Shanghao Guanyan bought back from Fucheng, the best sea cucumber produced in the coastal areas of Liaodong Prefecture, and then there is a small box of Cordyceps sinensis given to him by Xu Da's shopkeeper a few years ago.

These are all valuable things, and their value is not inferior to the generous gift sent by the businessman surnamed Zhao.

The moment he saw the gift list, the chief housekeeper of the Zhao family thought that he was dazzled.

He always thought that Yan Zhenwu was just a reckless person, and Su Shen and Meng Zhen were just ordinary people who came out of a small place in Yulin Village with a small place, so he didn't expect Yan Zhenwu to come up with such a thing.

It wasn't until he was politely sent out of the door by Junzi that this person came back to his senses coldly.

He was not qualified to decide whether to accept or not to accept this thing, so he could only take the gift list and the return gift, and hurry back to Zhao's house at a faster pace, and ask his master, a businessman surnamed Zhao, to take an idea in person.

The businessman surnamed Zhao was also very surprised, but he finally accepted the gift.

"In the future, the strict family can be more cordial and more important." instructed his absolute confidant to say this, and the businessman surnamed Zhao continued to get busy with business.

Although the businessman surnamed Zhao is just a businessman, he is a businessman with a reputation for showing talent, and the family behind him is very large, and there are few officials in the family.

The mastermind behind this bandit incident, a businessman surnamed Zhao, would not simply think that he was a group of ignorant bandits who wanted money and didn't want to die.

Of course, these are the private affairs of their Zhao family, and he will not tell Yan Zhenwu and Panhe.

Even he himself has no access to more core information that has nothing to do with him.

The only thing he can do now is to calm down his buddies and his subordinates first at all costs.

Only when he has eliminated all the potential hidden dangers and completely stabilized those who may be causing trouble, can his people free up their hands and feet to clean up those who dare to attack their clan.

These things that have nothing to do with Yan Zhenwu and the Meng family, Yan Zhenwu did not continue to pay attention to them.

After helping Meng Zhen buy the two Zhuangzi, and exchanging gifts with a businessman surnamed Zhao, Yan Zhenwu put this matter behind him very happily.

He began to take care of his baby wife, striving to let Hao Mengyun live a comfortable and happy life without danger.

***

"Master, the porter sent two prayer posts." The day before the Dragon Boat Festival, Meng Hao was busy taking accounts, but Mu Hibiscus suddenly sent two greeting notes to her table.

Meng Zhen opened it and saw that all the names were the first time I had seen them, and I didn't know who sent them.

She asked Hibiscus, "Did the person who sent the prayer leave anything behind?" ”

Hibiscus nodded, "Yes, yes... The master of his family had a relationship with you and the young master outside the Tribute Courtyard, and you also gave them the test basket for emergency at that time. ”

Meng Hao suddenly remembered who the other party was.

The two of them were dressed differently from ordinary people, and one of them had such a big beard that it was not easy for such a person to turn his head and forget.

She flipped through the two prayer posts several times, but finally couldn't see any obvious useful clues.

"Shen Chaoyang, Li Jianhui... Plum. ”

The surname Li is a national surname, and if he hadn't looked at the lazy young man with the unique embroidery on his clothes, Meng Zhen might not have associated him with the royal family.

But now that I see one of these two worship posts, the words "Li Jianhui" are actually written on it, but Meng Zhen can no longer control her brain.

"This kind of big man would come to visit us... There is also the man surnamed Shen who is with this Li Jianhui, with the casual attitude he talks to that person, it is obvious that he is not an ordinary person. ”

Meng Zhen sat there quietly, but her mind kept thinking about what the identities of these two people were.

Seeing her rare serious face, Hibiscus's heart also lifted.

She didn't dare to speak nonsense, so she quietly withdrew.

Meng Hao sat alone for about a quarter of an hour, until the voice of Begonia asking her if she needed to add tea came from outside, and Meng Hao called her and Hibiscus in.

Begonia went to add tea, but Meng Zhen beckoned the hibiscus to her side.

She took a small silver ticket with a denomination of fifty taels, two large silver ingots weighing twenty taels, and two small silver ingots weighing five taels and handed them to Mu Hibiscus, "You will go to buy ingredients with Sister-in-law Deng, Sister-in-law Guo, Shunzi, and Lin Dajiang now, and there will be a distinguished guest in our family tomorrow." ”

"If a hundred taels is not enough, you will pay a deposit first, and then have it delivered to your door."

The hibiscus went in response, and Meng Hao asked Begonia to send a message to Lin Erjiang and Father Lin, "Let them go and buy some new flowers and trees in season, they don't need to buy those precious varieties, they just need bright and beautiful colors." ”
