Chapter 133: Sitting on the ground and starting the price
Xu Wenyang got up and pulled her up and was about to leave: "Let's go, we have to go and grab the medicine, let's not delay." ”
Huang Rong sat still: "What's the hurry?" I'm not done yet, tell the villagers to catch them with a huge net, and remember that the locusts you catch are either buried deep in the earth or burned to ashes, and try not to be stoned to death in the open air, because some of the eggs are ripe, so it is not easy to remove them from the roots. ”
Xu Wenyang nodded: "That's reasonable, let's go, let's go to the county order and let him teach this method to the farmers." ”
Huang Rong got into the carriage with him, and when the carriage raised a puff of dust and smoke, she took a sip on the ridge at room temperature: "What kind of thing, revolving around women all day long." ”
However, his complaints went unanswered.
Huang Rong was still knocking her chin while sitting in the carriage.
Xu Wenyang asked: "What other tricks can't be done?" ”
Huang Rong: "How do you know?"
"Here, if you knock on it, it's a sign that there's a good way." Xu Wenyang pointed her chin with his index finger: "Say it, what way?" ”
Huang Rong smiled: "I'm thinking, what would I do if I was Jiaojiao?" ”
Xu Wenyang said: "What else can she do?" Many years ago, I learned from that Westerner to heal and save people, and if she wanted to dispense medicine, it would be impossible. ”
Huang Rong said: "You should underestimate her, but Jiaojiao hides her foodie nature." As he spoke, his eyes lit up: "There it is!" Eat! ”
"What to eat?" Xu Wenyang was confused.
"Eat locusts! It's okay to fry, fry or fry, first go to the county to find a good cook. ”
"This, can you still eat this thing?"
"Naturally, the insects that eat crops are not poisonous, they are all meat, and they also nourish the body."
So, in the next few days, the two stayed directly in the county, dispensing medicine while teaching farmers to catch insects with nets, but the hottest thing was: locust feast!
Huang Rong asked the famous chef in the county to try to make a few servings of locusts, and the result was unexpectedly delicious!
People tasted the taste, and heard the goddess doctor and princess Xinglin who was rumored in Beijing to say that this thing was a great supplement, so suddenly a gust of locust eating wind blew.
Needless to say, the peasants hated the locusts for spoiling their crops, and they ate the best!
Nowadays, walking outside the farmhouse, as long as it is a meal, you can smell a burnt fragrance, and people have even invented n a variety of ways to eat, and they can't wait to eat three meals a day as the staple food.
And, as it was rumored, the locusts were indeed a great tonic, and the children became fat as they ate, the women became round as they ate, and the men became strong as they ate, and they caught the locusts with great courage.
Even before Huang Rong's prescription came out, the locusts that caused the disaster had already been eaten! I have to sigh: no matter how powerful a creature is, as long as it can eat, no natural enemy is as "ferocious" as humans!
As a result, the market began to praise the Bodhisattva couple of Lord Xu and Huang Shenyi!
Then, as soon as these words were passed on, they were spread by hundreds, and hundreds of thousands were passed on, and the excerpt at room temperature had not yet been handed over to the treasure hall, and Zhao Yuan had already avoided the civil and military officials and left the palace!
He has to go to what people call Huang Shenyi, and he has to ask her in person, how did she become what people call Mrs. Xu?
It's just that Zhao Yuan never thought that the big fish he had been fishing for a long time would really be intercepted! is still the parent official Xu Wenyang who is praised in all kinds of ways!
So many things happened later, and almost provoked the nine kings to force the palace.
These are all afterthoughts, let's talk about the present.
On this day, Huang Rong finally concocted the first bottle of "pesticide" in this era, which was specially used to restrain locusts.
Since then, the locust plague in Huaizhou Mansion has been completely cured, and Xu Wenyang finally doesn't have to worry about working all day, and he and Huang Rong have lived a small life of mixing oil in honey.
Besides, Xu Jiao, since returning to Huaguo Mountain, began to advertise her own Huaguo Mountain.
First of all, she made a huge banner and hung it in the most conspicuous position on the wall of Huaizhou Mansion.
Naturally, the banner has the most avant-garde and attractive advertising slogan, followed by the beautiful picture that makes people fall in love at first sight, so that everyone who sees it praises this place as a fairy mountain.
The most important thing is that sentence: the place where the merchants and gentry gather wealth, and the princes and nobles enjoy the paradise! Coupled with the suffix of the following sentence Chiguoguo, "The Royal Nine Princes have taken the lead in choosing the most ideal courtyard, what are you waiting for?" Don't you want to be neighbors with the Nine Princes? ”
When Xu Jiao instructed Zhang Chao to hang the banner, Zhang Chao hesitated for a long time, thinking that it seemed inappropriate to use the Nine Princes of Chiguo in this way.
However, the Ninth Prince shook the folding fan and nodded: "Yes, it should work very well if you think about it." ”
Zhang Chao said suspiciously: "Didn't the prince think it was inappropriate?" ”
"No, this king of Huaguo Mountain also has a contribution, and this king doesn't want his money to go down the drain, so let's hang it up."
Zhang Chao said: "In this way, the safety of the prince ......"
"This king is not afraid, what are you afraid of?" Zhao Yin shook the folding fan and walked away with a smile.
So, the banner was hung out smoothly.
Xu Jiao also made this banner, and her tired hands didn't want to move for a few days, and the rest was handed over to Jiang Yunfei to find someone to copy it out and hang it in other most prosperous state capitals.
Soon, there was an endless stream of people who came to inquire about the terrain.
On the third day when the banner of the Huaizhou city wall was hung up, a boy covered in brocade came up to the mountain: "I want to buy the courtyard here." ”
Xu Jiao's small face made a small chef with a flower: "Childe wants to buy that position?" ”
The brocade boy took out a small "leaflet" from his arms and pointed to the marked position on it: "Here, southeast direction, this son has found someone to calculate, this son lives in the southeast, and here is a fortune with me." ”
Xu Jiao leaned her head and looked, good guy, the location directly under Zhao Yin's courtyard, this courtyard can be regarded as except for Xu Jiao and a few other specially arranged courtyards, and only the courtyard of the Nine Kings is the closest.
At the moment, he said proudly: "Childe really has a good eye, the line of sight here is excellent, you can overlook the beautiful scenery of the entire Huaguo Mountain, and you can get the sun in the morning and evening, and the sun is just right to avoid the sun when the sun is the strongest at noon, and it is also the closest to the lotus pond and the fish pond......"
The brocade boy didn't seem to have a good temper, and slammed his fist on the table: "How much?" ”
Xu Jiao was stunned and hurriedly stretched out five fingers.
Brocade man: "Five thousand taels? ”
Xu Jiao's face fell: "What do you say?" You don't look at what kind of lot this is, five thousand taels, okay, gold. ”
The brocade man choked and coughed: "Why don't you grab it, didn't your banner say that the price is absolutely close to the people?" ”
Xu Jiao nodded: "That's right, being close to the people is not a price drop!" Don't you know how to count? Look at the construction in my mountain, how much does it cost to use labor alone? Are you planning to buy a latrine for the 5,000 taels? ”
Jiang Yunfei and the others couldn't help laughing on the side.
Xu Jiao turned her head and glared at a few people fiercely: "Pick up guests at the door!" ”
Jiang Yunfei also glared at Zongmin Yuzhou behind him: "I didn't hear it, get out and pick up the guests!" ”
"What do you mean, 50,000 taels?" The brocade man asked incredulously.
Xu Jiao nodded: "Naturally, there is no need to talk about this lower price." ”
The brocade man wanted to say anything more, but he saw Zongmin leading a young man in and said, "Miss Xu, this son said that he likes a courtyard on our mountain and wants to buy it, so he will negotiate with you." ”
Xu Jiao said: "Negotiate the price, don't you?" Do you have to look for me? ”
Zong Min said: "This son and he can see it as a courtyard. ”
Xu Jiao became interested, and hurriedly beckoned to people: "Then come in." ”
The young man stepped forward and said to the brocade man: "I just heard from the little brother outside that someone has decided to have a house here, so it must be this son, right?" ”
The brocade man hesitated a little, but still nodded and said, "It's this son, you're late." ”
Xu Jiao hurriedly interrupted him: "What are you talking about?" Aren't you undecided, this son, it's good to say, my house costs 50,000 taels of silver, can you agree? ”
When the young man heard this, he was also stunned for a moment, and then said, "So expensive? ”
As soon as the words fell, Zhao Yin walked in and asked Xu Jiao behind the counter: "Jiaojiao, I just heard that you want to sell the one under my yard?" ”
Xu Jiao raised her chin: "I'm talking." What does the prince have to do? ”
Zhao Yin said: "I don't like people living under my yard, don't sell it." ”
Before Xu Jiao could speak, the two of them were already shocked: "This is ...... Nine Princes? ”
Zhao Yin lowered his eyes and glanced at the two of them: "Yo, do you still know this king?" ”
The two of them hurriedly knelt on the ground and saluted him: "The prince is blessed, the prince is noble, and he is a celestial man, how lucky the grass people are to see the prince." ”
Zhao Yin waved his hand: "Now that I've seen you, can I go?" ”
The brocade man hurriedly stepped forward and took out a stack of silver tickets from his sleeve and put it on the counter: "Girl, I have set the yard, this is the deposit, I will send someone to send the balance later, but can I sign the contract?" ”
Xu Jiao picked up the silver ticket on the counter and counted it. No more, no less, twenty thousand taels.
Just as he was about to nod, the young man also took out a stack of silver tickets from his arms and slapped them on the counter: "Girl, I want this yard, this is 50,000 taels, we will sign the contract now." ”
Xu Jiaomei smiled, picked up the pen and was about to sign.
Zhao Yin stopped: "I said, that yard is not for sale!" ”
Xu Jiao broke free of her little hand: "It's a fool to have money and not earn it, what are you doing when you're empty?" ”
Zhao Yin: "Okay, it's okay to sell it, you give me 50,000 taels alone." ”
"Why? The price of my yard is 50,000 taels, and I give it to you, what should I do? ”
"Are you stupid? You can just sell 100,000 taels! Zhao Yin looked at her with an idiot face.
Xu Jiao was surprised: This is okay, the starting price is so obvious!
Zhao Yin sat in her place for a long time.
Xu Jiao pretended to be embarrassed and looked at the two in front of her: "The two sons also saw it, this prince of Huaguo Mountain has half of the right to speak, why don't you change places?" ”
The young man was anxious: "It's okay, this 50,000 taels is a deposit, and I will inform the servant to send another 50,000 yuan." "That momentum, full of inevitable.
Xu Jiao looked back at Zhao Yin: "So, does the prince still have something to say?" ”
Zhao Yin nodded: "Okay, this king will suffer a loss." ”
Xu Jiao signed and asked Jiang Yunfei to take someone to complete the formalities, handed over the key to the yard to the young man, and didn't stop talking on the way out of the door: "Son, rest assured, our Huaguo Mountain is heavily guarded, and it is absolutely safe!" Don't be afraid to put more money! ”
ps: Lord Nine Kings is going all the way north on the road with a black belly, going farther and farther~ @娇娇, hurry up and pull a hand.
Jiaojiao: I can't pull it!
Jin Jin: It's not like a family doesn't enter the door.
Nine Kings: That's right!
Jiaojiao (tsundere face): Who is with his family!
