Chapter 7 7
That day, when I went to Huichun Hall to grab medicine, Mingjing saw a woman who picked a basket of herbs to sell and got six coins of silver. It is said that she comes to the market every time she rushes to the market, and the harvest is almost the same. In this case, there will be six taels of silver a month. It can basically be used to break even.
The price of this era is that an egg sells for a copper plate, a pound of lean meat is eighteen copper plates, and a thousand copper plates are exchanged for one or two silvers. So one tael of silver is about equal to the purchasing power of a thousand dollars in modern times. Six taels of silver a month is a very high income.
Father Feng shook his head, "You don't recognize medicinal herbs." ”
"Brother Zhao has already promised to teach me."
Feng's father couldn't help but nod when he thought of what his daughter had been taught since she was a child. However, "digging for herbs is too hard. ”
"As long as I can supplement the family, my daughter is not afraid of being tired. Moreover, picking herbs can also exercise the body, and it does not lose the eyes. ”
"My son has grown up and thinks far ahead. But if it's too hard, don't brace it. Father Feng was very pleased and said, "Write a note for your father's spirit tomorrow, and you can ask someone to send it to Master Fang, and it is better to inform him." ”
"Okay." It would be even better if there was support from the county, and if it was done well, it would be possible to gain both fame and fortune. At least, the ruffians didn't dare to come to the inn at will to make trouble and collect protection money.
The matter was finalized, Mingjing changed his previous attitude of not being willing to sell the house, and replied to Master Wang the next day. Then he invited Zhao Langzhong to accompany him, took the private seal of his cheap father to the yamen to go through the transfer procedures, and pocketed the silver ticket of one hundred taels.
She agreed with Master Wang at the gate of the county office, and the Wang family would come to take over the house half a month later. Next, she and Zhao Langzhong ran to the inn non-stop.
"Mingjing, what are you doing in such a hurry?" Zhao Langzhong couldn't help asking.
"I'm afraid the inn has been bought."
Zhao Langzhong was a little puzzled, "No one will buy that place." The house is old and the place is out of the place. Your family is now short of money, otherwise you would not have sold your house. Why are you still going to buy there? ”
Mingjing smiled, "It's going to be okay there." If Brother Zhao has spare money, he can also try to buy a house nearby. "The income of the famous doctors in the county is also very considerable.
"I have a family of old and young, and your sister-in-law is pregnant again, twins. I have to keep the money for the old man and the children. Thinking that Mr. had confessed to selling the money from the house to buy an inn, Zhao Langzhong didn't ask any more.
When you go to the inn, it is indeed a place where there are many birds. Mingjing looked around, the front was an inn, and there were still people living in the back. Since it will rise sharply in the future, she will not find fault with the bargain.
"Eighty-eight taels is right, deal! Let's go to the county office to transfer the household. ”
The owner is also anxious to sell the ancestral business when he uses the money, and at the moment he sees that Zhao Langzhong is very anxious that the little girl will buy it without talking about the price, but he thinks that the little girl is too young to understand so much, so he quickly said that he would go to the county government together. The clerk who handled the formalities at the county government couldn't help but be happy when he saw it, "Yo, why are you here again?" ”
"Uncle Gu, I came to sell the house before, but this time I bought an old inn." Mingjing said with a smile. Because Feng's father also hung up the position of eight products before, the Feng family also had dealings with these officials.
Uncle Gu looked at the place, "This place is not very good, it is a little biased, and the house is still old." Has your dad figured it out? ”
Mingjing nodded, "I've thought it through." It was the inn that my father asked Brother Zhao to accompany me to buy.
