"Dao Chief, the bachelor has already instructed, the villain has already made an appointment with the middle, you can go outside the city today to have a look." When I woke up the next day, just after lunch, Wang Anshi's housekeeper came over.

"That's great, let's go and see it together!" Shen Long came out, got into the carriage, and followed the official family and the Chinese people to the outside of the city, and the Chinese people kept introducing Shen Long to the situation of these places along the way.

"The land in the world is the most expensive in Kaifeng City, with an inch of land and the same price as gold, which has been around for a long time; The cultivated land outside the city is divided into several grades according to water, drought, fertilizer and thinness, the first class of red silt land ranges from two to three runs per mu, the second class of flower silt land runs two to two runs five per mu, and the lowest thin land is only three to five hundred wen! If it is a contiguous piece of land, the price will be even more expensive. ”

"The villain heard that the Taoist chief wanted to buy land, but he took out the best red silt land, a large area of about two hectares of land, and brought this Zhuangzi, if the Taoist chief is tired of living in the city, it is not bad to come outside the city to enjoy the idyllic scenery." The Chinese said earnestly, this is all for the prestige of Wang Anshi's family, otherwise he would not have taken out the best land as soon as he came up.

"Hugh wants to fool me and others, the Taoist chief is a distinguished guest of the bachelor, how can he handle it with just two acres of land?" In the Song Dynasty, there were almost 100 acres of land, and this shot was 200 acres, and if Shen Long could get 200 acres of land next to Kaifeng in the future, he didn't know how much he would earn if he engaged in real estate development.

"Don't worry, the bachelor has some savings over the years, and it's not a problem to have a few acres of land." After reprimanding the middle-aged people, the housekeeper said to Shen Long again that he had already prepared the money to buy the land.

"I don't need such a large area, I don't need such good land, no matter how much food I grow with good land, I can't show my ability, just buy some of the best land!" Shen Long said that it is April now, and this season is the most suitable time to plant corn, sweet potatoes and peanuts, which are not available in the Great Song Dynasty, but the land requirements are different from the popular rice and wheat.

"How can this be done!" When the housekeeper heard this, he was immediately anxious, these days Shen Long lives in Wang Anshi's house, Wang Anshi's father and son respect him in every way, and now let himself buy land, but Shen Long only needs to go to the lower ground, if this is spread out, won't it be laughed at?

"It's so decided, but the worse the land that a certain family wants to grow, the better; Select a few remote places and honest places for tenants to take me to see, too much, just three or five acres of land. Shen Long said.

The Chinese and the housekeeper look at each other, how can there be such a truth in the world? If this is the case, why can the red silt land be sold for a high price of three times, and the lower land is only three or five hundred wen? That's a lot worse.

"Well, if things are done well today, this is yours." Shen Long took out a pearl from his sleeve and threw it to the Chinese man, this thing he bought in the wholesale market, it was not worth a few dollars, but it was a treasure in the Great Song Dynasty.

"A little thing, I don't dare to accept a generous gift from the Taoist." The Chinese can be regarded as having seen a little bit of the world, and when they see such a big pearl, they are afraid that they can sell a large piece of high-grade red land, so how dare they take it, so they hurriedly swallowed their saliva and excused themselves.

"There is no reason to take back what you send out, let you take it and take it, just help me find a suitable place." Shen Long put his hands back into his sleeves and ignored them.

The Chinese thanked him again and again, and thought back carefully that he really found a suitable place, not far in front of a place called Wujia Village, there is a simple farmer named Wu Xiaoyi in the village, guarding a few acres of land outside the village and relying on his widowed mother for his life, recently his mother was seriously ill and had to buy land for diagnosis.

This place is not far from the gate of Kaifeng, but it is covered by a small hill, only Wu Xiaoyi's family lives, just to meet Shen Long's needs, Shen Long went to see, very satisfied, immediately made a decision, and then went to see Wu Xiaoyi's mother, said to Wu Xiaoyi, "This disease is not difficult to treat, I will prescribe a prescription when I go back, you can take the medicine according to the prescription, and your mother and son will still live here in the future, you will help me farm the land." ”

"Don't hurry up and thank you, the son of the bachelor's family is only good if he has taken the divine medicine of the Taoist, and it is a blessing that you have cultivated for several lifetimes to be able to be diagnosed and treated by the Taoist." The housekeeper saw that Wu Xiaoyi was still in a daze, and quickly glared at him and said.

Wu Xiaoyi reacted at this time, and hurriedly thanked him, Shen Long helped him up, "After entering the city tomorrow and grabbing the medicine, I will come back first and clean up all the crops in the field, I want to plant some new crops." ”

Now that the seedlings have just emerged in the field, how can the farmers be willing to dig them up? But now that the land is already someone else's, and Shen Long also helped his mother see a doctor, Wu Xiaoyi had no choice but to respond in a muffled voice, but he was worried in his heart, if he couldn't grow food, how would he live in the second half of the year?

entered the city and made a contract, and asked a servant of the Wang family to take Wu Xiaoyi to grab medicine, Shen Long asked the housekeeper to take him to the blacksmith shop in the city, handed over a few drawings to the blacksmith, and asked them to hurry up and build it, but this is the pattern of farm tools that Shen Long found out from the agricultural books of later generations, and the efficiency of cultivation is far better than that of the farm tools used in the Great Song Dynasty.

Then he asked the housekeeper to find some masons, and went to the cultivated land of Wujia Village to build a small courtyard for himself to rest, and divided it into two entrances, the front one built a laboratory with bricks and tiles, and the back made room for his villa.

Shen Long also gave the drawings, the Song Dynasty already had green bricks, and Shen Long's small courtyard was also planned to be built with green bricks, so that it would be more comfortable to live in and convenient for various experiments.

Building farm tools and building houses, none of these are more than the money to buy land, the housekeeper shook his head, and hurriedly followed Shen Long's instructions to find someone.

After a few days, the blacksmith shop finished building the farm tools, Wu Xiaoyi finished cleaning up the crops in the field, and the masons began to build courtyards nearby.

At this time, Wang Yan also came back from Xiangzhou, he received some tortoise shells with words, and was ready to stay up all night with Wang Anshi to study, but Shen Long asked him to ask for leave to follow him outside the city.

"Well, good job, just follow me to work today, send out all the newly built farm tools, and let's turn over the ground today." Shen Long changed his body today, took a hoe from the carriage and planned to start working.

"Dao Chief, how can this be done, let them do these rough jobs well." This scared Wang Yan a lot.

What can't I do, I also planted land in northern Shaanxi for a few years, Shen Long not only did not rest, but also stuffed a hoe for Wang Yan.

Shen Long took the lead in doing it, and Wang Yan stayed for a while, remembering his father's instructions, gritted his teeth and followed.
