Chapter 42: Buying Land
Lin Qingdai saw that Qin Jingfeng didn't look like he knew about it, so she stood up and blessed her body and said gratefully, "Thank you, Lord Wang." ”
Qin Jingtian glanced at Qin Jingfeng, and said dissatisfiedly: "The people under your hands should be cleaned up, and my house should also be cleaned up after I go back, some people's hands are stretched too long." ”
King Duan understood what Qin Jingtian meant, and agreed: "What you said is right, the hand is stretched too long, I will pay attention to it in the future." ”
Chunmei had already stood up and stood aside with her head bowed.
The shopkeeper was so frightened that he stood behind the counter and didn't know what to say, he didn't expect that it was the two princes who came to the inn.
He knew King Duan, but he didn't expect King Li to come too, and he was struggling with whether to return the silver that Lin Qingdai gave just now.
It's like a little episode, and then everyone stops talking about it.
Qin Jingfeng said apologetically to Lin Qingdai: "This matter is the king's fault, and I ask Miss Lin to forgive me, speaking of which, the king's life is still there, and I also owe Miss Lin a reminder, this matter is owed by the king to Miss Lin, and if there is a need for this king in the future, Miss Lin should not be polite." ”
When he came to Anyang City, he was a stranger to everything, how to control the plague, how to deal with these things, and the whole person was confused.
Later, Qin Jingtian gave him a book to fly pigeons, taught him how to control the epidemic, and taught him how to deal with the dead people, exterminate rats and fleas, so that Anyang City would not become a dead city completely.
During this time, I saw too many tragedies, some families died, some villages and towns were empty, and people were panicked, even he had to huddle in the small courtyard, fortunately, he had a precaution, and his life was still there!
Qin Jingtian said unhappily: "This king's people, even if something happens, this king will solve it, and it is not your turn to trouble you, the imperial brother asked me to assist you, so I brought someone here, I heard that the first place where the plague was discovered was Qingshui Village, did you send someone to investigate?" ”
Qin Jingfeng's face was gloomy, thinking of the tragic situation in Qingshui Village, his mood was extremely heavy: "I sent people to go, and I have been there myself, but all 183 people in Qingshui Village died, and when I went, there were corpses everywhere in the village, those who went early were buried by their families, and those who died late were exposed to the wilderness like this, I asked people to burn the village with a fire, and those buried corpses were also dug up and burned." ”
Pneumonic plague is too serious, this is also the first time Lin Qingdai has seen the most serious plague with her own eyes, unlike some infectious diseases that are prevalent in modern times, pneumonic plague has no possibility of treatment and recovery even in modern times.
The death of one village after another is really miserable, and the heart is very heavy and very uncomfortable.
Qin Jingfeng was able to order the burning of the whole village, Lin Qingdai sighed and said: "I have also seen a lot of barren villages that have been burned down along the way, and those uninhabited villages have also been burned, as long as they are put to death, they can be reborn, since Qingshui Village has been burned, it is estimated that we can't find anything, and our trip is in vain." ”
Qin Jingtian said slowly: "It's not in vain, then we have to help investigate Anyang City, I hope this matter will be dealt with as soon as possible, my mother is still waiting for us to go back." ”
Since Qin Jingfeng is here and has dealt with Xia He, there is no need for Lin Qingdai to continue to put up a fight and leave with Qin Jingtian.
The innkeeper saw that Lin Qingdai didn't ask for any money after leaving, so he decided to close the door and stop doing business for the time being.
came to the small courtyard again, this time without checking, nor bathing and changing, but went directly to the backyard with Qin Jingfeng.
Lin Qingdai was surprised when she entered the inner courtyard, the gate of this courtyard did not look obvious, but the backyard was particularly large, with lakes and rockeries, flowers, birds, and water pavilions, so it was no wonder that Duanwang was able to stay in the small courtyard.
Qin Jingfeng personally took Lin Qingdai and Qin Jingtian into a courtyard, the small courtyard is independent, there is a small pond in it, there is a pavilion in the middle of the pond, and the courtyard looks larger than Changning Courtyard.
Qin Jingfeng said apologetically: "You have also worked hard and rested well, if you need anything, you can tell the maid, and wait until tomorrow to start doing things." ”
Looking at Qin Jingfeng's back as he gradually moved away, Lin Qingdai turned around and said, "This courtyard is too big, bigger than the palace." ”
She dreamed of having such a big yard, but unfortunately, she couldn't afford it.
Qin Jingtian didn't care and said: "Now the courtyard of Anyang City, as long as you give a little silver, you can buy it, but it is useless to buy this courtyard, at least it can't be inhabited for a few years, and when you come back in a few years, the courtyard will be deserted." ”
There are also many dead people in Anyang City, but they are not as terrible as in the village, and those who have a little bit of silver probably want to leave Anyang City.
Moreover, with so many people dying, many people feel unlucky to stay in this place.
Lin Qingdai thought about it, and she didn't necessarily live if she bought it, but she was still moved: "You just said that as long as you give silver, you can buy a yard, I really want to buy it, it's best to buy a store." ”
What she bought was not a yard, but a piece of land, such a big city as Anyang City, even if it was deserted, it was estimated that it would not be abandoned for a few years, and when the plague completely passed, it would gradually prosper, and then the title deed would be valuable.
The more I thought about it, the more excited I became, the two sat in the pavilion, Lin Qingdai looked at Qin Jingtian with anticipation and said, "Can you lend me a little silver, about a thousand taels, I want to buy a shop or a yard." ”
She has a hundred taels of silver on her, and it is estimated that she can't buy anything with this bit of silver, and a thousand taels of silver is actually not enough, but she is not embarrassed to borrow too much from Qin Jingtian.
Qin Jingtian was curious: "Do you want to buy the shop here?" Aren't you afraid that you will lose all your money when the time comes? ”
Lin Qingdai was very confident: "Don't be afraid, this is not to gamble, after winning the bet, you will have money to raise your younger brother, you see, have there been plagues in some cities before, there are no people in the years after the plague, but you only need to wait a few years to become popular, and then the store will be valuable, can you borrow my silver." ”
Qin Jingtian didn't care and said: "One thousand taels of silver is too little, let's lend you ten thousand taels of silver, and when the time comes, you can pay me back 11,000 taels, there is a relationship with a child, and I am not afraid that you will repay the debt." ”
He admired Lin Qingdai's mind, and it was indeed the most cost-effective to buy yards and shops at this time.
Lin Qingdai was instantly excited, 10,000 taels of silver, according to the current market, you can buy a lot.
It's just an extra thousand taels of silver, this deal is not too cost-effective, and he said very arrogantly: "No problem, but you have to help me, I don't know who to buy the store from." ”
That's the hardest part of the problem, you have to find a seller to buy something.
Qin Jingtian tidied up the hem of his clothes, and said unconcernedly: "It's okay to find Duanwang, he is the one who knows Anyang City best at present, and you can buy a store if you find him." "I say this, but in my heart I am thinking about buying some with it, and I am buying it now, and I only make money and don't lose money.
