Chapter 217: A Moment
"Who did it for her?"
"Young Master Hui, it's Zhao Dashan, who is currently taking over from Zhenting, do you want to blame him?"
Although Jiubao asked so, he originally wanted to explain two more sentences for Zhao Dashan.
Jiubao wants to say that Zhao Dashan has a straightforward temperament, and he is quite upright. It's only because of some reasons with the Xu family that they must be reckless.
However, before Jiubao could think about speaking, Huo Yunqian stood up from the bathtub while wearing his underwear, and said, "It's not just because of the old love that you will act rashly, but someone must have a more noble reason."
I just don't know what the reason will be.
Therefore, compared to why Zhao Dashan listened to Xu Tianxin, Huo Yunqian wanted to know what Xu Tianxin said at that time.
For example, will it be related to the Zhenbei Army?
"Make arrangements to let Qian Yuanwai and the Xu family exchange land."
"Yes, young master, the little one will arrange it."
If necessary, let the money clerk use the fertile land to lure the Xu family to replace the wasteland. The temptation is enough to make people spit out the "meat" in their mouths.
While thinking about how to arrange it and what kind of excuse to use, Jiubao breathed a sigh of relief when he left the house, and Miss Xu almost broke the big thing by mistake.
At the same time, his face couldn't help but show a gossip look.
See? He asked the young master a moment ago, do you remember Miss Xu from Erdaohe?
Don't look at the young master who didn't open his eyes or open his mouth at that time, but he just had an intuition that the young master secretly scolded him in his heart, as if to say: What do you think, she blew up my two rows of houses, can I forget her?
So, tsk, Miss Xu blew up the house first, which was almost because she exposed the gold mine, and after the young master heard about it, he was only a little surprised at the beginning, and then smiled.
Not only did he not look angry at all, but he also seemed to have encountered something interesting.
And now, in order to make a reasonable transition to this unexpected incident, the young master also decided to use the dark line money clerk who has been buried in the northland. You must know that once it is activated, the money clerk will not be useful on the side of the county yafu city.
The Huo family has people like Qian Yuanwai everywhere.
Jiubao scolded secretly: Shi'an, that second fool, is like this, and he dares to keep saying that the young master is not moved? That's because my eyes are covered in.
In Jiubao's view, it can make the strong become gentle; It can make the decisive person hesitate and think about how to handle this matter carefully, so that no one will notice anything wrong, and it will not affect Miss Xu.
Even if it is not the love between men and women, the other party must be very special in the heart of the young master of his family.
Jiubao leaned against the pillar and continued to enjoy:
And when can we confirm that it is the love of men and women?
Jiubao has a theory of its own.
If one day, which girl can make his young master, this ascetic person become sinking, and the young master who provokes his family with few words will become quarrelsome with the girl's family, after all, it can make the rational person out of control, and his body will be stained with fireworks. It can even make the pride of the sky feel the pain of asking for it but not being able to do it......
Belching, Jiubao hurriedly reminded himself that it was unlucky.
In short, when a girl appeared next to his young master, and had the ability to stir up the mess of his young master's emotions, Jiubao thought to himself: Then he can laugh, which means that the love between men and women has come.
But at this time, Jiubao never expected that although his eyes were not covered with like Shi'an, the matter was not done, and he still received the board two days later.
——
Erdaohe Village.
While beckoning the newly arrived caravan to unload and enter the house, Mrs. Xu took the time to hurriedly run over and looked at the familiar servant Xiaoxi in front of her: "What did you just say? The mountains let you come, saying that they want to change the land?"
"Yes, I don't know if you know the money clerk in our town, but the land in the four horse racks was basically bought by him, and he has a lot of money and looks very white and fat."
"I've heard of it, but I haven't seen it much." Mrs. Xu thought to herself: Their old Xu family belongs to the nouveau riche. Before, when a rat entered the house to find a circle of food, he would leave in tears
That kind of poor law, how could he have contact with the kind of big landlords outside the money clerk. It's not too late.
You just tell me what's going on.
The official thought that this was a great thing:
"Auntie, Qian Yuanwai wants to cover the wasteland near the mountain, raise sheep and cattle as pastures.
I heard that he took a fancy to the area where your granddaughter bought Jiapigou before.
Then he found the town, didn't we just sell it two days earlier, he was very sorry.
However, he suggested that Jiapigou is good for breeding, and if your family can change fields, he can help you change the land and buy the same number of acres of wasteland, and then subsidize two acres of fertile land, or exchange it for two acres of fertile land.
Auntie, the money clerk is really a foreigner, he said that he should be an apology for making this unreasonable request. Because I'm going to trouble you to change the paperwork."
Lao Zhai called Mrs. Xu to come back and cook quickly, and Mrs. Xu waved her hand to wait.
She's a little out of her mind.
Mrs. Xu's first reaction was: When it was her granddaughter's turn, no matter what she did, it was embarrassingly strange. Even if you buy a piece of wasteland that is not unusual, there are still people who are looking for money to give benefits.
If you don't match in other places, she picks her granddaughter's part.
So Mrs. Xu's second reaction was very puzzled: "Did Qian Yuanwai say that why did he have to go to that area? He can raise cattle and sheep in another place."
The little servant told:
"There is an explanation.
On the one hand, isn't this road opened in front of your shop, he came around the mountain road from the four horse racks, the closest to the Jiapigou, the villages around him have nothing to buy, and you can't use the best fertile land to breed, isn't it blind and fertilized, and the cost is higher?
On the other hand, he said that it is very much the ditch in the middle of the ditch, and there is a place for cattle and sheep to drink water."
And after listening to the explanation, Mrs. Xu still behaved unexpectedly. There was no pie-in-the-sky joy on his face.
The official was really convinced of this calmness, and thought: No wonder the Xu family is rising so quickly, rushing to the old lady of the house, it can be seen that people have really seen a lot of money.
Unlike them, since they heard about it, they all regretted and wondered in their hearts: Why didn't the money clerk fall in love with the wasteland in the village where their families were located?
"I won't tell you that this is the wasteland that my granddaughter bought, and I can't hide it from you who have been following the mountains for many years, you all know, right? Then I'm not qualified to help my granddaughter with ideas. She is not at home today, and she went to help someone get the bamboo painting ordered, and I can't give you a reply immediately, so when she comes back, I will ask her."
"Auntie, you still can't make up your mind for such a good thing?!"
Before Mrs. Xu could explain a few more sentences, the old Zhai Tou pushed open the door of the store again, exhaled the white mist and shouted to her, hurry up, always be in charge, the chef, the merchants are shivering from the cold, and the stomach is even more hungry and white-faced, come back quickly, we can't bear it.
"That's it, huh? Xiaoxi, please go on a trip, if you are not in a hurry, go into the house and drink hot water, Dashan asked, you said wait for my granddaughter to come back. Anyway, now that it's freezing, Qian Yuanwai can't raise sheep at the moment, so why is he in a hurry."
Mrs. Xu hurriedly went back to earn money.
That night, Xu Tianxin and her second uncle were working together to study the water drop clock that was ordered, and she still owed the water drop clock, and she was making money everywhere, and none of them could be delayed.
Mrs. Xu only mentioned this matter when the guests were drinking.
After Mrs. Xu finished speaking, she wiped her hair full of cooking smoke with a wet rag, and wiped the flour on her body. One day, I cooked a big meal and made it oily.
She wiped her face for a long time, and after finishing her words for a while, Mrs. Xu found that her granddaughter didn't seem to hear it, and she didn't say anything.
"What's wrong?"
Xu Tianxin said something to Xu Lao Er in the crowded restaurant: "Second uncle, you just go to buy dye tomorrow and help me do something."
To help her buy two books, Xu Tianxin took out a pen and paper and wrote down the titles of the books: one is called "Void Tour Shenglan", and the other is called "Fang Yuji".
To.
Mrs. Xu's eyes widened suddenly, and she immediately understood. There's something in the skin groove? Why did you check the map?
Xu Lao Er's reaction was not slow.
After all, he has figured out the law, people who have the ability to talk less, and those who talk less are never targeted.
Xu Lao Er grabbed the name slip of the book and asked, "...... It has something to do with what your grandma just mentioned."
Then he directly gave a conclusion: "Mother, don't change the land, although I don't know what kind of book this is, but the two acres of compensation money given by the money clerk must not be enough to buy books, so it's a lot of trouble."
This time, it was Mrs. Xu's turn to be too anxious: "If you want to buy it, you can buy it."
When there was no one, Mrs. Xu grabbed her granddaughter's arm and whispered, "Can it be so coincidental?" Even if he takes 10,000 steps back, there is really gold, silver, copper, iron and coal, and at the level of Qian Yuan, he is a landowner in a town, and he used to donate money to get a foreign name, can he know? Besides, if we give compensation for two acres of fertile land as a gift, will we think too much."
Xu Tianxin said, "So you have to check."
What if.
Two days later, the General's Palace.
Shi An looked at Jiubao lying on the bench with him, aren't you the most useful person, why did you also get five boards: "What a coincidence, Brother Bao."
Jiubao glared at Na Deng, and thought: I never expected that Miss Xu would not sell it, and she would call back, and it would not cost you a few dozen taels of silver.
And Shi'an was beaten, because he was on duty this morning, he snatched the young master's toilet again. The young master is a little unbearable. Also, after being robbed, he deliberately observed that after the young master was interrupted, he didn't go to the toilet again until now.
Two more days later.
When Zhao Dashan enthusiastically took Qian Yuanwai and his party to Erdaohe, Erdaohe's new shop was bustling here, because there was already a caravan ready to return to the city, and the villagers were busy selling goods.
The place to sell the goods is in the ice and snow outside, or set up a long table, or directly spread the sack on the ground to sell.
"Let's take a look at frozen pears, frozen flower reds, frozen dumplings, and frozen tofu. Our dumplings are woven with sorghum stalks on a tray also called a curtain, wrapped and placed outside to freeze directly, a plate of white flowers, frozen hard and stored in an empty vat, except for the Chinese New Year's Eve and the first five days of the new year, the rest are all frozen dumplings, buy some to eat on the road, boil when the water is boiled."
"Sticky bean bun sticky bean bun, your dry food made of ordinary rice noodles is easy to dry out and harden in winter, this thing is easy to carry, sticky and soft. We also prepared a bud for you, wrap it in a leaf, and steam it in a pot, so you don't have to bother to bring a bowl to eat it on the way."
"Frozen fish, guest officers, we also regret it, if only you could wait two more days, after two days you will have to dig ice and fish and pull a big net. I can't see the scene of us opening the river to pray for blessings, the fish that are jumping around, when they are caught, they don't need to be hunted at all, and after a while, they will freeze into ice picks, and then melt into fish when they are eaten freshly, and the meat is tender and not dry. So don't miss out on some frozen fish."
The old men in the village also carefully introduced the fish in the snow trough with a pestle, which was silver and white and shiny.
"Cocoon chrysalis cocoon chrysalis, forest frog, did the guest bring two black chickens to the old mother at home? There are also chicken balls and fish balls for children to cook soup noodles or roast and eat them deliciously. Whether it's the elders or children in the family, they have been looking forward to you for so long, buy some."
"Want to buy sweets? Buy pastries in the house, please, there are dried mushrooms, fungus, salted fish in the house."
When Liu Laozhu pushed the door, he almost filled his arms with the merchant who had just bought thick clothes and shoes.
Liu Laozhu hurriedly smiled with a wrinkled face, cocked his thumb and praised: "This hat, gloves, and woolly grass are all sets, and when you wear them, your temperament is too stylish."
The person being complimented asks, "Is it really good?"
Liu Laozhu was categorical: "Yes, you have a good temperament."
After speaking, he squinted and found Zhao Dashan in the shadow: "Isn't this the town pavilion coming?"
Liu Laozhu found Qian Yuan standing not far away.
Qian Yuanwai and several tall people beside him introduced that it should be a box made of ice in Erdaohe.
Natural large refrigerator.
Erdao River does two large rows.
Directly freeze the goods and put them inside. Even the lid is sealed with ice on all sides, and then chiseled with a hammer when selling. So as not to harm the rats or what to the food.
Liu Laozhu didn't expect Qian Yuanwai to bring a lot of people today, and his momentum looked like a rich man.
Liu Laozhu knew that Qian Yuanwai wanted to change the land in Tian Xin's hand, and it seemed that he wanted to take the opportunity to discuss it again today.
There was no need to discuss, we Tian Xin'er said that we would not change. Not short of the thirty taels of silver. Some herbs need to be planted in ditches and ravines.
Liu Laozhu deliberately slipped away quietly: "Xin'er, don't you change? I saw that the old man was not well-intentioned, and brought a bunch of people who were very imposing, and called you Uncle Dashan, I heard that you asked Uncle Dashan to be the middleman to make peace."
"I'm sure I won't."
"Then don't be afraid, there is your milk and me."
Zhao Dashan came today to make peace. You can raise the price again to compensate, but you can't open your mouth, so you have to negotiate face-to-face.
If possible, you can change it on the spot.
Zhao Dashan sat at the table in the middle of Liu Laozhu's house.
On his left-hand side, Qian Yuanwai had already led the four of them to sit down, and one of them was extremely good-looking, which caused Zhao Dashan to be a little distracted, as if he had seen it somewhere. But it is impossible to see such a big and tall person, such a look, and there will be no specific impression.
Mrs. Xu got the letter and hurried to Liu Laozhu's house with her granddaughter and her family.
The first time Xu Tianxin entered the house, he also looked at the dignified person at a glance.
Even when the man saw them enter the house, he stood up politely, smiled, and bowed to her grandmother.
Even if Zhao Dashan introduced everyone here very clearly, saying that this is the son of the richest distant relative among all the relatives of Qian Yuan's family, Mu Xingye.
I don't hide it from my family, the other party is going to wait for the mutual market and build a horse farm in Jiapigou. So it's not bad for money, and you can increase the compensation.
Xu Tianxin couldn't help laughing, some people don't pretend to be ordinary businessmen at all.
