"Princess, lord, this house is the most magnificent house in Chongguan County, if it weren't for the original owner's family going to Kyoto, this house would definitely not be sold out."

Sun Dongjia of Yaxing led Lin Ruan and Xiao Jingchen to watch around in the courtyard.

Because of the two noble statuses, those teeth in the tooth shop didn't dare to make decisions at all, so they hurriedly invited Sun Dong's family over.

Knowing that the two were going to buy a house, Sun Dongjia immediately took out the best real estate resources in their hands.

This house, a total of five enters, is quite large, and there are many houses, although it looks like it has been some years, but it is well maintained.

The courtyard style here in northern Xinjiang is just like the climate and environment of northern Xinjiang, which is more generous and bold, and a little less exquisite.

Because of the border battles for many years, the courtyard wall of this house is very high, and it is almost flush with the house, which looks a little strange, but it has a little more security.

Lin Ruan looked at the whole house and thought it was not bad, so he turned his head and asked Xiao Jingchen, "What do you think?" ”

Xiao Jingchen nodded, "Reluctantly." ”

Lin Ruan's requirements for housing are not too high, she can even live in a military tent, so naturally she will not feel that this house is not good.

So he asked Yazi: "How can this house be sold?" ”

Sun Dongjia said flatteringly: "The princess is serious, this house can be favored by the princess and the prince, that is the blessing of the villain, where can I accept the princess's silver." This house should be regarded as the villain's filial piety to the princess and the prince. ”

Lin Ruan waved his hand: "No merit, how much silver you originally planned to sell for this house, just make an offer." ”

Sun Dongjia said seriously: "How can you say that it is useless, everything that the princess and the prince have done for the northern Xinjiang is not only the word merit." Northern Xinjiang is now peaceful, and the people can eat enough, all of which rely on the princess and the prince. The villain just wants to express some gratitude to the princess and the prince on behalf of the people of northern Xinjiang, and ask the princess and the prince to give the villain this opportunity. ”

Lin Ruan smiled lightly, "The Sun Dong family has a good reputation, everything we have done as a husband and wife is just a matter of our part, and we should not be thanked by the people." If the Sun family refuses to make an offer in this house, then the two of us have not been here today. ”

She doesn't accept filial piety from others at will.

It's not that I can't afford it.

And things can't be collected indiscriminately, take people softly, and if you can't keep it, you will be asked to come to the door one day, and you can't push it off when the time comes.

She won't ask for trouble.

Of course, her current identity is not afraid of people looking for trouble, but she doesn't want to have this kind of involvement with others.

Sun Dongjia originally wanted to give a house, so that he could have a friendship with Lin Ruan and his wife, and he couldn't say that he would be able to get some light in the future. But seeing Lin Ruan say this, it was naturally not good to talk about filial piety, so he quoted a very low price, "One thousand taels." ”

Xiao Jingchen shook his head: "Forget it, go look elsewhere." ”

He has been in northern Xinjiang for so long, although he has never bought a house, but he also knows an idea of the housing prices in the county, and it is impossible to buy such a big house at this price.

Sun Dongjia was anxious, and hurriedly said: "Don't be angry, don't you get angry, isn't the villain's offer still true?" One thousand eight hundred taels. ”

Lin Ruan was a little unconvinced, "Such a big house, 1,800 taels?" ”

Sun Dongjia almost swore to the sky, "Princess, the housing prices elsewhere are definitely not cheap, but this is the northern Xinjiang, a bitter cold place, and the housing prices are already low." In addition, Chongguan County is close to Yansha Country, and people with a little bit of a way have tried to move away, and those who stay are either too poor to leave, or they are bold and have backgrounds. So it's not surprising to buy a five-entry house for 1,800 taels. ”

Lin Ruan turned his head to look at Xiao Jingchen, and after getting his confirmation, he said: "Then make a deal at this price, you can keep the silver ticket, you can do the deed exchange, and you can send the deed when I move over." In addition, I also asked Sun Dongjia to find some people to clean up and repair this house inside and out, and report the cost to me later. ”

Sun Dongjia responded repeatedly, and after receiving Lin Ruan's silver, he proposed to invite the two to dinner.

Lin Ruan and the others naturally couldn't agree, and after making some repair suggestions, the husband and wife rode out of the county seat.

When Sun Dongjia took the deed to the county government to go through the formalities, the people from the county government heard that the princess Huguo had bought a house in the city, and they were so excited that they almost jumped. The county commander hurriedly landed his manpower and rushed to the Northern Xinjiang Wei to ask Lin Ruan for peace.

Lin Ruan and Xiao Jingchen did not rush back to Beijiangwei, but went to some surrounding villages to visit around.

If she wants to improve the living environment in northern Xinjiang, she naturally has to start from the lowest level.

After walking around, Lin Ruan also had a general understanding of the countryside in northern Xinjiang.

Poor, poor with a clang.

Although the land in northern Xinjiang is vast and sparsely populated, the land is barren, and there is a perennial lack of water, and the winter is long, and the spring, summer and autumn are combined, which is exactly the same as the winter time, and the suitable time for planting is even shorter. Therefore, the life of the peasants here is quite difficult, even if the imperial court reduces taxes year after year, it is difficult to cover the income from a year's labor.

Lin Ruan looked around and felt a little heavy.

She thought that Linjia Village was already very poor, but compared with the northern Xinjiang side, Linjia Village was already quite rich a few years ago.

Xiao Jingchen led the horse with one hand and Lin Ruan's hand with the other, "Don't be sad, their good days will be soon, with you, all the past here will become history." ”

Lin Ruan was very confident in his ability, and said with a smile: "I will definitely build this land in Northern Xinjiang into a cornucopia of Great Zhou!" However, before that, you must also hurry up and crush the Yansha Kingdom to death, otherwise no matter how rich the northern Xinjiang is, it will only cheapen them. ”

Xiao Jingchen's eyes were resolute: "It will be." ”

When the two returned to Beijiangwei, it was already dark.

As soon as he entered the gate of the barracks, he saw Fei Su coming up, "My subordinates have seen the princess and the prince." Ma Shicheng, the county commander of Chongguan County, came to greet the princess, and he had been waiting for almost three hours. ”

Lin Ruan ran for a day, a little tired, and didn't want to see him, "You go and tell him, it's a little late today, I'll summon him in a few days, let him go back first." ”

Fei Fu took the order and left.

Lin Ruan returned to the tent, and Lu Calyx and Jin Luan hurriedly stepped forward to serve her to freshen up and put the meal on the table.

Xiuxiu came in from the outside, looking a little tired.

"What's the matter? On the first day of work, you were tired and lay down? ”

Lin Ruan was actually reluctant to let her go to the military doctor's office, the child was still young, and facing those bloody wounds would have a great impact on her. If she hadn't been able to reverse the remedy, she wouldn't have agreed to anything.

Xiuxiu's expression was a little unbearable, "Sister, I saw a lot of wounded soldiers at the military medical office today, they are so pitiful, and there are many injuries on their bodies." ”

Lin Ruan reached out and touched her head: "War is like this, there is bloodshed, there is sacrifice. If you can't hold on, don't go. ”
