But now in this rural place, the Lin family has no foundation here, and it is a single family, so it was originally looked down upon by many people.

He is a slave of the Lin family, and he is even inferior.

Just by virtue of the resistance he has encountered in doing things for his master these days, you can imagine it.

Those people in the village don't recognize him, the steward of the Lin family, and if they have something, they will pull out some feelings and say that they have to find the master at every turn and talk to the old lady about it.

If it weren't for the village chief's pressure, he wouldn't have been able to control those people at all.

If you want to recruit people, you will undoubtedly cause trouble for yourself, rather than this, it is better to buy a few clever boys directly, and if you train them well, you can not only help him do things, but also not worry about them starting a new stove.

Lin Yu is not stupid, but she doesn't care too much about these things when Xu Tao helps her take care of them.

But a few days ago, some people came to her house to find her father and mother, and she didn't see Xiang.

She also told her father and mother, let them leave it alone, if anyone is not willing to go to the village chief, it doesn't matter if they don't want to do it, just go to Xu Tao to get the salary.

It was also under the pressure of her and the village chief that Xu Tao went relatively smoothly in all aspects.

Now, Xu Tao proposed to buy someone, and Lin Yu also knew his difficulties, so he had no objection.

"How much silver do you have on hand now?"

"There are more than two hundred and eighty taels of cash in the account."

Lin Yu pondered for a moment, thinking that this person would have to arrange a place to live when he bought it, and the Lin family's house would definitely not be enough.

From the vacant land behind her house to the medicine field, she had already asked the village chief to buy it, and the yard that she had built into was just right, and then she and her father and mother could live in the backyard, and the empty yard in front was for Xu Tao and them to live.

It's also good to clean up a main house, which is usually used to entertain guests.

Lin Yu thought about it and said, "You take eighty taels to buy people, and then pay fifty taels out, and ask the village chief to help clean up the vacant land behind my house and build a yard, not too big, three main houses, two side rooms on the left and right, if the money is not enough to find my father's branch." ”

"Yes, girl."

Xu Tao was overjoyed when he heard this, and he was too busy to respond.

Originally, he thought that the girl would agree, and it would be good to buy a kid to follow him.

I didn't expect my aunt to give him eighty taels to buy someone, according to the current market, a boy and a half is between ten taels and twenty taels, and a stupid ten taels can be bought, even if it can write and calculate twenty taels.

And this kind of person basically did not have some family background, but was later raided, or sold by a large family, and this kind of person basically cannot be bought in the countryside.

A slightly clever kid is only about fifteen taels, and according to this calculation, eighty taels can buy five or six.

If this man is brought out, it will be of great use in the future.

Two hundred and eighty taels may be considered a rich family in the village, but it is far from enough for Lin Yu.

In addition, there is only one hundred and fifty taels left to build a house and buy people, which is not enough for Lin Zheng to replenish his body and study.

Especially for reading, it costs a lot of money, she asked Su Qing, his brother usually spends a lot of pen and ink on reading, and every New Year's Day, he has to give Mr. a gift every year, which is a lot of money.

Su Ze usually has time to copy some book collections for the study to earn money, otherwise it is not easy to rely on the income of the village chief's family to provide for a scholar.

Lin Yu didn't want Lin Zheng to worry about these things, so making money was imminent.
