Chapter 117: Inferior Mountain
Genius one second to remember the address of this site: (vertex Chinese)., the fastest update! No ads!
Su Wanniang didn't expect that Fu Bo would have news so quickly.
Fauber is not very optimistic about the mountains, although it is not a very bad inferior field, but compared to the merchant's land, it is a world of difference.
Can something grown in such a field be good?
And, in his opinion, isn't it just throwing the front into the water!
"The land is some distance from my lady's land, but the land is next to each other. The inferior mountainous area is about to be at least ten acres, and the specific ones need to be measured by someone to know. Now the chief is taking care of it, and some beans are planted in it, and if someone sincerely buys it, the chief can call the shots. ”
Fauber remembered the happy look on the Lieutenant Chief, and knew that he was in a hurry to sell.
That place is considered to be Sanbao Town, but because it is an inferior mountainous area, and it belongs to the jurisdiction of the governor, he can still call the shots.
The people here in Sanbao Town still give Fu Bo more or less face, although they know very well who he is doing things for, but they can also see that Fu Bo is the descendant of a big family.
Su Wanniang heard that there were more than ten acres still connected, although she was a little moved, but she also understood that she had to see it with her own eyes.
After thinking about it, Su Wanniang added and asked, "Does Fu Bo know how much silver is needed for that mountainous land?" In Su Wanniang's memory, there was no price for the land. It can be seen that the predecessor is also unknown.
Fu Bo saw that Su Wanniang was interested in the mountains and wanted to dissuade her, but she held back.
After all, it was someone else who bought the land, and he didn't say much.
"According to the original words of the chief, there can be no less than eight hundred wen! If you buy more, maybe the chief can sell a little less. Fauber had no feeling for the inferior mountains, and he still liked good fields after all, after all, he was born and raised in this era.
In everyone's opinion, there is a big difference between good land and bad land.
Su Wanniang had a hint of surprise on her face, eight hundred wen, this price is really cheap.
If you buy ten acres of low-grade mountain land, isn't it only eight taels of silver? This is not enough to buy pen, ink, paper, inkstone.
Fu Bo stood there, and when he saw Su Wanniang's surprised look, he thought to himself, did Mrs. Xu think that the price was too high?
"If Madame thinks it is too expensive, the old slave advises Madame to think more about it. After all, it is an inferior mountainous area, and I am afraid that the yield will not go up. Fauber kindly reminded, with sincerity in his cloudy eyes.
Su Wanniang blinked, eight hundred wen is not expensive, but who doesn't like to bargain.
"I mean to, I have other uses for the mountains. However, I want to buy a lot, and if Fauber is free, he might as well take me around. After seeing the land, what will I decide? ”
At this time, Su Wanniang's heart already had sixty or seventy percent of the thoughts she wanted to buy.
Such cheap land, even if it is left to plant trees, is an investment after all.
Fu Bo had already seen what Su Wanniang meant, and he was a little helpless in his heart, but he didn't say words of persuasion anymore: "Madame thinks that the old slave can accompany Madame to go at any time, and the mountain is not far away." ”
Su Wanniang nodded, thought about it, took out a tael of silver from her sleeve, handed it over, and explained: "Then I'm bothered to help me prepare some snacks or something, so I can go and visit the mayor!" ”
Fu Bo did not refuse, nodded and took the silver: "It should be like this!" The old slave went shopping first, and then went with his wife to see the land. ”
After Fu Bo left, Su Wanniang went back to the room, put her silver two together, and secretly planned to get up.
She also wants to buy a house, preferably not far from the field, first, it is convenient to take care of, and second, Su Yingjie can be closer to Xishan Academy on the mountain.
Su Wanniang gathered the silver, and then counted out some scattered silver horns. There are all kinds of weights, such as buying land here.
If you rashly take out a silver ticket or silver ingot, I am afraid that it will make people red-eyed and arouse the suspicion of others.
After loading the broken silver, Su Wanniang stared at Xu Junhao for a while and asked him to rest, went to the kitchen to wash an apple for the child, and Su Wanniang sat in the yard and waited.
Xu Junhao is used to his mother taking out some fresh fruits from time to time, because he has never seen apples before, and they are slightly sweet and fragrant, and the little guy also likes to eat them very much.
Su Wanniang will only take out some fruits to Xu Junhao when there is no one, after all, the apples are from the north, and when she bought them, the price was not cheap! Fortunately, the seeds are all left, and there is a lot of space to produce, enough to eat.
After eating the apple, the little guy took out the Luban lock and other things he bought before and played with it, and he was very well-behaved.
After sitting for a while, Fauber came back in a carriage, carrying two inconspicuous wines brewed by the nearby restaurants and two packets of snacks.
"Madam, everything is ready, this is the extra money!"
Fu Bo handed over the extra string of copper coins and explained, "The Li Chief's family also often buys these grocery stores' own wine, and these are enough. "What's more, it's just placed, if it doesn't work, it's all for nothing.
Su Wanniang had no objection to Fu Bo's arrangement, she didn't understand this, so she took the copper coin and put it away.
"Then let's go and see!"
Su Wanniang looked at the sky, beckoned Xu Junhao to follow, and the three of them walked towards the mountain.
The place where the chief's house is located is just near the merchant's field, and there are only more than ten families in this vicinity, and the population is simple.
Fauber was the first to knock on the door, and someone on the other end immediately came to open the door.
"Fortune Steward!"
The door opened, and the people inside showed their heads, and when they saw Fauber coming, they immediately opened the door.
When he saw a young woman standing behind Fu Bo with a child, the person suddenly seemed to think of something, and nodded to Su Wanniang to say hello.
Fu Bo is a person who can do things, raised the things in his hand and said with a smile: "Ah Yong, is your father at home?" ”
The middle-aged man who was called Ah Yong nodded: "Steward Fu, please come in quickly, my father is in the house!" Ah Yong was very polite to Fu Bo, mainly because he also worked in the merchant's field.
Fu Bo turned his head and introduced: "Madam, this is the eldest son of the Li Chang family, his name is Li Yong, you can call him Brother Li!" ”
In order to get closer to the relationship, Fauber is also very attentive.
Su Wanniang nodded and called Brother Li!
At this end, Fu Bo said to Li Yong again: "Ah Yong, this is the lady who wants to buy the mountain, and next to her is her little son!" ”
When Li Yong heard this, he nodded and expressed his understanding: "It turned out to be the lady and the little son, the three of you, please, if there is anything, you can discuss it with my father!" "Apparently he can't handle these errands.
Fu Bo nodded and took Su Wanniang in.
Su Wanniang approached the yard, which was much worse than the merchant's yard.
However, compared to the earthen houses in the northwest, there are gray tiles and blue brick houses, which is already good.
Su Wanniang only glanced at it and didn't look around, although Xu Junhao was curious, but he also followed obediently. The little guy held his mother's hand and didn't let go, and he was still a little repulsed by unfamiliar places.
"What's wrong with the Fu Steward?"
Li Changqing, the chief of the house, was drinking tea in the house, and when he saw someone coming, he immediately got up and greeted him.
He was quite polite to Fuber, after all, the identity of the comer was different. Although he is the lieutenant chief, he has no money and no official position, so he is nothing, and he is just in charge of these dozen or so families.
