An acre of land needs more than 20 catties of seeds, Pearl bought 100 silver seeds in the grain store, and the rest of them are going to take sticky corn out of the space to plant, and the underground supermarket just entered a batch of sticky corn, but unfortunately because it is old, it is planning to reduce the price and deal with it, take too much, for fear that it will arouse the suspicion of others, Pearl went to Zhuangzi to take a look, and left 200 taels of silver for Liu Tonghammer, so that he could clean up the house, and build a new house, and she would let people send the drawings. Zhuangzi also handed over the matter of hiring people to farm the land.

Carrying the seeds into the car, Pearl asked Liu Hai to go somewhere else to see if there were any novel seeds, and went to the Northern Merchant House by himself. Not to mention, this place is really big, and the things inside are really complete, there are fabrics, food, there are also novelty things from the south, and some foreign goods, soap, rouge, perfume and so on. Pearl saw a pair of ivory gilt copper vases, and 8 paintings, very good Western paintings, Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo and Raphael, which are probably not very famous now, but Pearl has taken a fancy to the works of the three of them. Pearl was born rich and noble in her previous life, and she still knows a lot about painting.

"Shopkeeper, this painting is for sale?"

"Little lady, this thing is not cheap, a thousand taels of silver a piece!"

One thousand taels? Pearl smiled and said to the shopkeeper, "One thousand taels is too expensive, and when you get off the ship, this thing is only one hundred taels." ”

The shopkeeper listens to the other party, and he is still an expert! I didn't dare to underestimate it, and said, "My surname is Liu, just call me Shopkeeper Liu, I don't know where the little lady is from?" What do you call it? ”

"My husband's surname is Ming."

"Mrs. Ming. You also know that it is only the price of the purchase, and when it comes to us, we pay the tax, and after deducting the cost of transportation, a thousand taels is not expensive. ”

"It's only 200 taels in the capital!"

"You know the goods!" Shopkeeper Liu's smile is not to reduce the price, Pearl thought about it and said, "Shopkeeper, I also have something in my hand, do you give me a long look?" ”

"Oh? What's the little lady's thing? Take it for me to see. ”

Pearl pretended to dig it out of her sleeve, and then took out a round portable folding makeup mirror from the space, the outside of the mirror was inlaid with a large red crystal, and when she opened the mirror, one side was normal, and the other side was magnified. The shopkeeper looked at the pearl and said, "Eight paintings, what price does Madame give?" ”，

Pearl pulled out a thumb-sized pearl from her sleeve, round and without any blemishes. This bead is definitely more than 10,000 taels. Therefore, these eight paintings can naturally be sold. Shopkeeper Liu continued, "What else does Madame like? I still have a table clock, a pendant from the West, and jewelry. As he spoke, he waved his hand to his men, and before long, two men brought two trays of gems, and Pearl looked at it, picked up one, and said, "Charo stone, good." There is also citrine, and the quality can also be. I want everything in this tray. Pack it for me! ”

Shopkeeper Liu was not happy, "Oh, madam, the things in here are a dowry of 100,000 taels!" ”

"Give you two folding mirrors, a bead. You're enough. "Now this mirror is a delicate thing, and besides, you can't make this door-to-door rhinestone. And this pearl, so big, so round, you must know her value. ”

"But these two trays have a lot of diamonds, rubies, sapphires, alexandrites and aquamarines. The quality is very good. ”

The pearl was right to think about it, and took out two pearls from the purse, which were larger than the one just now, and said, "How about this?" ”

"Deal, I'll have someone pack it for you right away. You can take it with you. ”

Pearl continued to walk around, and she found that there were many furs here, all of which were of very good quality. Western furnishings, tableware, candlesticks. Vases and very beautiful boxes of Western jewelry, as well as crystal products. But these pearls don't seem interesting.

Pearl also found a blanket in the store, although it was only a simple brown-yellow blanket, but Pearl knew how good this thing was, and it was warm and moisture-proof, so she bought 10 pieces at once, and spent five taels of silver. I plan to send it to Mingqian, and my mother's family will also leave a few.

Pearl had a meal with bangs and went home. This time, Pearl asked Liu Hai to send herself directly back to her mother-in-law's house. Pick out your mother's felt, and the rest can be pulled home.

When I arrived at the Ming family, the people of the Ming family came out and greeted the bangs warmly, I didn't know the inside story, and I thought that the Ming family liked the pearl more! But bangs are not stupid, jokes are jokes, and all the things are sent to my sister's house. Liu Hai rushed home before dark, and did not stay to eat. At this time, the Wang family called the pearl to the hall, the old man Ming and the Feng family were also there, as well as Ming He and the Shen family, and even the little uncle Mingde was there, except for Yu'er, who had already slept, the whole family was waiting for her to buy the silver back from embroidery!

Pearl took out a small bag from the room, and in it lay fifty taels of silver, all of which were four ten taels and two five taels and one ingots. Pearl put the package on the table and said,

"This embroidery sold for fifty taels of silver."

The people of the Ming family looked at these fifty taels, and they all looked a little disbelieving, and the old man Ming was the first to react and said, "The second child married a good daughter-in-law!" ”

"Just fifty taels?" Wang didn't believe that pearls were so real,

"Why don't you go and rummage through my house?" Pearl said,

Wang wanted to say something, but was stopped by Ming Youshou, and Pearl continued, "Give your husband 20 taels to the academy, and give 5 taels of silver to the third brother." Even if the pocket money is added by me, it doesn't count, so ......" Pearl took out two silver ingots of ten taels and one five taels from them, and continued, "These are for my dowry, after all, I am only the money I have advanced for my family." The rest will be left to the family. ”

"What is this called? All the money earned has to be given to the family. ”

"My dowry can't be moved, no one can move, if you don't agree, let's find a matchmaker, find Li Zheng and talk to the clan elders."

Old Man Ming wrapped the silver again, handed it to Wang, and said, "Be content!" What else do you want to make a fuss? The second family's family is good. We didn't leave anything to eat and drink, so don't rush too far. ”

Feng Shi said to Pearl, "I saw that you bought food, isn't there enough food at home?" ”

"It's not grain, it's the seed of my twenty acres of land. It's going to be planted in two days, and I'll have to buy it back. ”

"Then why do you still buy it in Zhuozhou Mansion? There are always two sacks of wheat at home, and you can be enough seeds. Feng Shi's words are relatively neutral.

Pearl said with a smile, "The seeds I bought back are good, although they are more expensive, but the yield is also high, and I also bought novel seeds, and the yield is not bad this fall." ”

Ming Youshou looked at the pearl and said, "The second family, what do you mean?" It won't be twenty acres of land, you have to grow it yourself, right? ”

Old Man Ming and Feng also understood a little at this time, and Wang was even more anxious, and said without waiting for Pearl to answer, "Second daughter-in-law, you won't let your mother's family plant it!" ”

"No! I will ask my mother's family to help, hire people to grow food, and when we weed and harvest, I will also hire people. ”

"Are you still from this family? So clear? Wang screamed,

Pearl didn't scare her either, and said, "My dowry, of course, is in charge of myself." I have a harvest, and I am a family, so naturally I have to come up with a little ration. But for other things, wouldn't it be better for my father and mother to worry less and contribute less? ”

Reward and more!
