Chapter 112: Auction
Pei Yan's words made Yu Tang's heart beat like a drum.
What does he mean by that?
If the Yu family is in difficulty, for the sake of the villagers, no matter what the situation of the mountain forest is, he will buy the mountain forest and save the Yu family from temporary difficulties.
Is that what she understands?
When she thought about the events of her previous life, her heart beat even harder.
In the previous life, the Yu family sold the mountains, forests and fields to the Pei family, not only because the Pei family was the richest family in Lin'an City, but also because Pei Yan offered the highest price.
At that time, she didn't know Pei Yan.
I thought that the Pei family had a lot of money and didn't care about these little things.
But now it seems that although the Pei family has a lot of money, they also take something and don't take it.
Obviously, in the previous life, the Pei family bought the ancestral business of the Yu family, helping the Yu family in disguise, and it did help the Yu family - without the Pei family's money to buy land, she had no money to hire someone to salvage the bodies of her parents, and she had no money to buy a cemetery for her parents, so that her parents could be buried in peace.
It turned out that when she didn't know, Pei Yan had already been very kind to her!
Yu Tang remembered the loneliness and helplessness in her previous life, and thought that there were still people who had given her help and warmth at that time, and her eyes suddenly moistened.
Pei Yan looked at her in a daze, and she didn't come back to her senses for a long time, she couldn't help but be suspicious, stretched out her hand and shook it in front of her eyes, and said, "Hey, have you thought about it?" Is there anything I can help with? If you don't have it or haven't thought about it, then wait until after the tenth day of the new year. ”
Yu Tang was excited, and his brain spun quickly.
She said: "I want to continue growing sea buckthorn, and then make sea buckthorn into candied fruit and sell it for money, do you think it is feasible?" ”
Pei Yan didn't expect Yu Tang to be so stubborn.
But this is her choice, even if it is the south wall, she will have to hit herself with a headache before she turns back.
He reminded Yu Tang: "It takes at least three years for the sea buckthorn tree to bear fruit, you can think about it." ”
"You've figured it out!" Yu Tang took a deep breath.
In her previous life, no matter what reason Pei Yan planted the sea buckthorn tree, she felt that as long as she followed his path, she would definitely be able to succeed.
Pei Yan no longer persuaded her, and said, "If you really decide, do it well." I hate people who give up halfway the most. ”
"Don't worry!" Yu Tang assured him, "I will definitely do a good job." ”
Pei Yan thought, even if it was a tie.
Whoever learns something must not pay a little money!
"I still have a few sea buckthorn trees at home," he said, "and after the tenth day of the first month, you can send someone to dig them up and plant them in your woods." If I can live, I will bear fruit this fall. You will find out when you taste the fruit. ”
It's bland and tasteless, and if you don't make preserves, it's really useless.
Yu Tang didn't expect such an unexpected gain.
In her previous life, she heard that this tree was recommended to him by his friend who was an official in the northwest, but in this life, it was dug up by Zhou Zijin from the northwest. I don't know if it's the news from the past life or the news from this life. But no matter what, she decided that after the result, she would make a batch of candied fruit in advance and let Pei Yan and Mr. Shen, who helped find the seedlings, taste it.
Both of them helped her a lot.
Yu Tang respectfully sent Pei Yan away.
Before Pei Yan returned home and didn't sit down, Pei Man came to him and brought him a bit of surprising news: "The martial arts family lobbied everywhere, and the Tao family, the Yin family, the Li family, the Sheng family, etc., all decided to put the price at about 5,000 taels of silver when they were auctioned. No matter who gets the picture, they will take it out and share it. ”
There are no eternal friends, only eternal interests.
Pei Yan poured himself a cup of tea indifferently, took a leisurely sip, and then said, "You don't have to worry." I'm not prepared for any one to win. If they all agreed, then sell them the map for five thousand taels of silver. Coupled with the deposit of 2,000 taels of silver for each family, how could the Yu family get 20,000 taels of silver. With these 20,000 taels of silver, it is not much, and it is enough for their family to spend for several generations. Besides, what's the use of having more money? If the children and grandchildren are not angry, they will be defeated more or less. ”
Pei Man was stunned and said, "Isn't it the one with the highest price?" ”
Pei Yan burst out laughing, looked at him like a fool, and said, "The one with the highest price wins, do you think it's possible?" How much is considered high? I didn't plan to do it from the beginning, but I didn't want them to get it so easily, otherwise they would think that our Pei family had evil intentions and that the map was fake. ”
There are indeed many people who spend the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain.
Pei Mandao: "Then we really don't leave a map?" ”
The Yu family once said that they would give one to Pei Yan, and if they want to keep one, it is not a breach of contract, right?
Pei Yan shook his head and said, "I know my second senior brother, he can do anything for the sake of his career. Now that the first assistant Shen is old, he will be the first assistant in two years at most, he and Li Xun compete for the first assistant of the cabinet, with his temperament, he will definitely take the city boss, and by the way, let the wealthy families in Jiangnan reshuffle, and those who do not support him will all be trampled into the quagmire. I was at odds with him in the first place, and if the teacher wasn't still alive and had to be mentioned by Senior Brother Fei, he would have already disrecognized me as a junior brother. We'd better not get involved in this. “
Pei Man's expression changed drastically, and he nodded again and again.
Pei Yan stood up and stretched, yawned and said, "I slept too late yesterday, and I want to take a nap today." In the afternoon, I have to pick up the wind and wash the dust for the people of the Peng family, you tell Ah Ming, remember that it is time to call me to get up. ”
Pei Man responded and instructed the little maid to make a bed for Pei Yan.
Yu Tang, who returned home, looked a little dazed, always thinking about some details of his previous life. On the day of the auction on the tenth day of the new year, Yu Yuan arrived at Yu Tang's house early and waited nervously for news with Yu Wen.
Although Yu Tang was sitting in the study, he was a little absent-minded.
She was thinking about the rumors about Pei Yan in her previous life.
Little is known about him, and they don't even know whose girl he married. I haven't heard that he has children, I don't know if I don't want others to know or if I didn't have it after getting married?
She was so stupid in her previous life. Why didn't you think about why the Pei family would buy their mountains and forests at a higher price than others? However, even if she knew, with her previous personality and courage, she probably wouldn't dare to thank the Pei family. There is also the Li family, who got the map in his previous life, colluded with the Peng family, and became a big family second only to the Pei family in Lin'an, and I don't know how much influence it has on the Pei family? Also, Pei Yan said that the imperial court wanted to remove the city divisions of Ningbo and Quanzhou, but in her memory, until the time of her death, the city divisions of Ningbo and Quanzhou seemed to be still there......
Thinking of this, Yu Tang almost jumped.
That's right, why didn't she think of using the news she knew in her previous life to repay the Pei family?
In her previous life, whether the city divisions of Ningbo and Quanzhou were withdrawn or not had little to do with her, but the Pei family was different. Their family is a big business, even if he doesn't want to do business at sea, there must be people he knows, or relatives who do business at sea, she can reveal this news to Pei Yan, and then Pei Yan can use this news to make transactions with others, or let his relatives and friends reduce losses!
The more Yu Tang thought about it, the more feasible he felt.
She was circling around the room, wanting to see Pei Yan's heart like the flame that burned the plain, burning more and more.
Yu Wen looked at it and whispered to Yu Yuan: "Look at Ah Tang, it is said that he has grown up and has an idea, but at this age, he is still a little unbreathable when he encounters something." ”
After working hard for so long, he finally threw the map out, and Yu Yuan was also happy from the bottom of his heart.
He couldn't help laughing and said, "Isn't this all family?" If there were outsiders, she would definitely endure it, and you can't praise her for being calm and responsible. Uncle, don't find fault! ”
Yu Wen smiled silently and said to Yu Tang: "Don't turn around, I will be dizzy." The Pei family is a well-known family, and they will send the silver from the auction to our family as it is. You're going around like this, and my heart is flustered. ”
Yu Tang smiled, did not explain why he was going around, but stabilized his mind, sat down and drank two cups of tea, and then went back to the house to make two silk flowers, and then waited for the Pei family to report the news.
"The deposit and the proceeds of the auction are twenty-seven thousand taels of silver." The person who came was a man about thirty years old, with a very ordinary appearance, wearing a very ordinary blue coarse cloth straight jacket, speaking slowly and methodically, claiming to be Chen Qi, the Pei family's account man, "According to what I said before, all of them were stored in the Pei family's silver building." This is a silver ticket, please count it with Master Yu, and I will go back to pay the account. After he finished speaking, he took out a box, "It is full of silver tickets of one thousand taels and one piece, which is also the largest silver ticket in the Pei family's silver building." ”
Twenty-seven thousand taels?!
The people of the Yu family were all stunned for a moment.
Yu Yuan couldn't hide the joy and excitement in his heart, glanced at Yu Tang, and quietly clenched his fists.
Yuwen was also very happy. He coughed lightly, took the box and handed it to Yu Yuan without looking at it, got up and saluted Chen Qi, and said, "Mr. Chen has worked hard, he has prepared wine at home, and I also ask Steward Chen not to dislike it, drink a glass of water and wine at home and go back." ”
Who knows that Chen Qi said with a straight look: "Master Yu, the silver ticket was given by the third master himself, and several people in the account room looked at the box, and I brought it alone, so please count it, if there is no error, we will talk about the rest." ”
Yu Wen smiled disapprenosingly: "Since Mr. Chen is the account keeper of the Pei family, what else can he not believe?" Surely there is no such thing as a ......."
"Let's ask Master Yu to count it." Chen didn't talk about favors with Yu Wen at all, and he had to find out the money in person.
Yu Wen was a little unhappy, feeling that Chen Qi couldn't trust him.
Yu Tang sighed secretly in his heart, so he had to persuade his father: "Daddy, you believe in the Pei family, that is your trust in the Pei family, but Mr. Chen is the account room, and he has a set of requirements for his own account room. You still listen to Mr. Chen, and count the silver ticket in person! ”
Yu Wen and Yu Yuan counted the silver tickets together with Chen Qi.
What the Pei family sent over was personally handed over to Chen Qi by Pei Yan, so naturally there would be no mistake.
Yu Wen thought, now Chen Qi should be able to drink a glass of water and wine here with confidence, right?
Chen Qi still refused: "I came by the carriage of the third master, and I have to rush back to pay the errand, if you want to thank the third master of our family!" I'm just an errand boy. ”
didn't give Yu Wen any face, and Yu Wen was so angry that he didn't send Chen Qi out in person, but asked Yu Yuan to send him off on his behalf.
Chen Qi didn't feel neglected, he waved towards Yu Wen, and followed Yu Yuan out of the study.
