Within a few days, in order to pretend to be Ning Nanxing, he returned ten taels of silver to Shen Tuantuan.

Shen Tuantuan was stunned, "There is silver so soon?"

Ning Nanxing said vaguely, "Well, there has been some chaos in the city recently, and there are more frightened people, who have sold medicine and made a lot of money." ”

Shen Tuantuan accepted the silver at this time, "Well, that's fine." ”

"Tuan Tuan, do you want to buy land? Recently, the tooth man in the tooth shop brought me a message, saying that there are many people in the city who have recently committed trouble, and they are all anxious to sell their land. There are a lot of them, but now because people are panicking, those who are interested are waiting and watching, for fear of being targeted by the people in the yamen. Therefore, the price of this field is now three or four percent cheaper than before! ”

"So cheap!" Shen Tuantuan couldn't help but exclaim. "I once asked, an acre of good paddy field is fifteen taels of silver that can't be bought."

Because Jiangxia City is backed by the canal, the production of the fields near Jiangxia City is excellent, even in a year with little rain, as long as you work hard, the harvest is passable. For this reason, no one is willing to sell their land without special circumstances. Therefore, the price of this paddy field is very stable.

Therefore, for more than half a year, Shen Tuantuan wanted to buy more than a dozen acres of land, but there was no news.

At this moment, as soon as Ning Nanxing mentioned it, Shen Tuantuan's heart moved.

"That was before, and now a lot of land has been taken out and sold, and those who have money have to wait and see, and second, knowing that people are waiting for money to use money to get up and down, as long as no one buys it, the price will be pushed down again. Even if it's fifty percent, it's not impossible. ”

Shen Tuantuan thought about the silver he had saved, and he had a lot of money in his heart. "When I get some money together tomorrow, I'll go with you."

Ning Nanxing nodded in response, "Okay, I'll come back to you tomorrow." Sooner rather than later. ”

Shen Tuantuan didn't care about disturbing Shen Changzhi's study, so he told Ning Nanxing about coming to him. Shen Changzhi pondered for a long time, and also felt that this matter was feasible. "How much money do you have at home?"

"There are more than three hundred taels. The money earned by the seller before, plus the rent of the shop and the silver from selling tofu, add up to more than 300 taels, I estimate, that is, 300 taels can be moved, and dozens of taels of silver will be left at home in case of emergency. ”

Shen Changzhi didn't carry Shen Tuantuan on his back, walked to the bookcase, and opened the locked small box, "There are about one hundred taels of silver here, you can take it to buy land." After a while, I will go to the city to see if I can collect this year's rent, and I will go to He Chunlou again to make it convenient for the shopkeeper Qin. ”

Shen Tuantuan held the small box in his arms, and secretly opened it to take a look, and it was really all kinds of scattered silver, including silver ingots and copper plates. "Brother, why do you have so much silver!"

"Don't look, what are you doing watching me like that? Some of these things were given by my mother when I was a child, and some of them were earned when I copied books before. Most of those silver ingots were made from recent paintings. Since Shen Changzhi devoted himself to studying painting skills, Shen Tuantuan would also insert a few words on weekdays, and with the help of Shen Tuantuan, the modern core, Shen Changzhi had divine help, and since then he has become more and more intensive in studying painting skills.

Even if Shen Tuantuan had to force him to read, Shen Changzhi would take advantage of Shen Tuantuan's inattention to draw some small freehand paintings.

"It's so profitable to sell paintings!" Shen Tuantuan didn't expect that so many people in his family had worked hard for more than half a year, and they had only saved three hundred taels of silver. But Shen Changzhi has only been saving a hundred taels for a long time.

"Our Jiangxia City is rich, and naturally there are more people buying paintings, but there are more people buying them a while ago. I only paint the kind of small freehand paintings, although the pen power is immature, but it can also bluff people. Shen Changzhi packed his things and planned to go to the city.

On the second day, Ning Nanxing entered the city with the Shen family brothers and sisters.

The three of them followed the tooth man to several places, all in the north of Jiangxia City. There are very few fields sold in the vicinity of Peach Blossom Village.

"Little lady, the original eighty acres of land are excellent, because the seller insisted on eighty acres together, so this scared off a lot of people who came to buy land."

"This family has also committed a crime?" Shen Changzhi asked in a low voice, the high-grade paddy field is 10 taels of silver per mu, and the medium paddy field is 7 taels and one mu, if it was placed in the past, this price would not be thought of at all.

The tooth man glanced at Ning Nanxing, the young master of the Ning family had already bought nearly 100 acres of land, and he got a lot of red from it. It's just that today, the young master of the Ning family has long been strict with him, and he can't disclose the matter of buying land to others.

"Don't hide it from this master, this family didn't commit a crime, but his wife's maiden family did something. At the beginning, this family was still erected with the help of his wife's mother's family, no, he wanted to sell his land to save people. I heard that the lady's mother's family sells illicit salt, so I thought about selling land to save my life. ”

Shen Changzhi nodded, since he was married to a daughter, he would naturally not be implicated. This land can be bought.

It's just eighty acres, that's too much. They don't have that much money.

When Ning Nanxing was on the road, he had already found out the silver that the Shen family brought out this time. A full dozen is five hundred taels.

"Otherwise, divide me ten acres?" Ning Nanxing spoke out in a timely manner to relieve the siege.

Shen Changzhi was naturally happy.

After the two families negotiated, Ning Nanxing called the tooth man again, "You can't be kind to this matter." Eighty acres of land are all out, and the price is so high, but it is not very kind. Perhaps, if we wait another day, there will be more people arrested in the yamen, and I am afraid that the price will have to be reduced by another percent. ”

The tooth man had a bitter face, "Master Ning, if you are not satisfied, why don't I discuss with the master's family again?" ”

"Well, the high-grade paddy field should be at least one penny lower. Otherwise, we'd rather buy three acres and two acres of land. "Those really small families don't have a few silver deposits, all relying on those few acres of land, if something happens to the family at this time, then they can really only go bankrupt, even if the price of the land is pushed low, they have to sell.

The tooth man hurriedly answered, saying that he would ask again.

Shen Tuantuan whispered: "Don't we mean to take advantage of the fire to rob?" Isn't it unkind. ”

Shen Changzhi didn't speak, sat thoughtfully, and glanced at Ning Nanxing from time to time.

If Shen Changzhi is not mistaken, Ning Nanxing never told Yaren at all, his surname is Ning.

Unaware that Shen Changzhi had already noticed his Ning Nanxing, he also explained in a low voice at this time: "That family said it was to save the Yue family, but who knew that it was really to save people." Maybe he ran away to sell his land. For fear that the government would find out about the door of his house. ”

Don't ask him how he knows, because, yesterday, Ning Nanxing bought nearly 100 acres of land, and after estimating the Shen family's money, he deliberately left 80 acres for the Shen family to buy.

It's really good, in the future, even the fields are next to each other.

After the group had dinner in the city, Shen Changzhi led the people to the courtyard of Shen Chunyun's house.

When Shen Chunyun saw someone knocking on the door, he was worried in his heart. "Who, who—"

"Little aunt, it's me—Tuan Tuan—"

Only then did Shen Chunyun dare to open the door, "Come in, you guys scared me, I thought it was someone from the government who came to the door." You don't know, these days, people in the government are asking from door to door. ”

"What are you doing in the city right now? Didn't I tell you to stay in the village well? ”

"This, this is the kid of the Ning family, Nanxing, right. The aunt was upset just now, and she didn't even think about it. Shen Chunyun let the person sit in the hall.

Shen Tuantuan glanced at Shen Changzhi, and Shen Changzhi said this matter.

Shen Changzhi made a long story short, and told them about coming to the city to buy land.

Shen Chunyun gasped, "Your guts are really big. After saying that, I couldn't help but feel a little active.

You must know that in the early years, although the business of the grocery store was good, and Shen Chunyun also saved a little silver, but because there were two sons in the family who were studying, that is, they occasionally met land sellers, so they bought two acres of land, and the family was not enough to chew, so they had to spend a lot of silver to buy food every year.

If you add a few acres of land, you will save food in the future.

"Does this work?"

"Auntie, don't worry, these days, there are people in the yamen who transfer their houses every day." Ning Nanxing opened his mouth and said, although he was very unhappy that this was Yang Ankang's mother, but for the sake of Tuan Tuan's aunt, Ning Nanxing was still very polite. "Because I bought a shop before, I have already dotted up and down in the yamen, and the shop and house may be sealed by the yamen, but the people in the yamen can't reach for the fields." Naturally, it was impossible for the yamen to seize the land, and they wanted silver.

Shen Chunyun understood, "Why don't I follow you to see it too?" ”

The group returned to the tooth shop, and the tooth man was already waiting at the door, for fear that the sale of this order would be gone. "Master, little lady, you are finally here. There are several people over there who have taken a fancy to it and are inquiring about the price, planning to go to see the land in a while. ”

The tooth man whispered, gesturing at the two fat men behind him.

"If the price is good, the deal will be made immediately."

After getting Ning Nanxing's words, the tooth man was happy, "It's done!" The high-grade paddy field is 9 wen yuan per acre, the medium 7 wen yuan per acre, the master is unwilling to be less, a total of 616 taels, I am good to say, finally agreed to 600 taels, it is better for people to cash silver. ”

Ning Nanxing and Shen Changzhi exchanged glances, and Ning Nanxing spoke, "Naturally, there is no problem with this." If you can, go to the Yamen now. ”

The tooth man quickly responded with joy.

After such a deal is completed, he can also draw a few taels of dividends.

After the transfer was completed, the Shen family got 20 acres of high-grade paddy fields and 70 acres of medium-sized paddy fields. And Ningnanxing divided eight acres of high-quality paddy fields.

And Shen Chunyun also bought 6 acres of medium paddy fields under the introduction of Yaren.
