Li Yewu smiled: "Now you are the seller, naturally you set the price, if the price is right, I will take it back on behalf of the prince." ”

Xiao Jiuxi's stay in Beijing has such benefits.

No matter what she says, no one will come to poke it.

The old housekeeper was shocked on the side, it turned out that the little lady was wandering around these days to see the fields?

The master threw away the things one by one, and the little lady picked them up one by one......

The old housekeeper sometimes had the feeling that a loser had met a virtuous wife, and if he could, he would like to cry for a few days! So he became more and more respectful to the little lady.

Everyone didn't pay attention to the old housekeeper's actions, and everyone was shocked by the news that Li Yewu was suddenly going to buy land.

However, the head of the Liu family is the last of the four major families, and he also knows that he has no qualifications for pricing, so he said vaguely: "Well, I haven't thought about how much to sell, and it can't be lower than when I bought it." ”

"As far as I know, most of the fields outside are 10 taels and one acres, and the princess can also refer to one or two."

Li Yewu couldn't help but smile: "Does the head of the Quartet mean that the market price is the same?" ”

The four of them looked at each other and didn't speak, and acquiesced.

Li Yewu continued to speak: "But there is fertile land outside, but here is barren land, and it is not easy to turn over the seeds. ”

"It used to be good land, but it didn't affect it." The owner of the Mu family joins the group chat.

It is said that he and Li Yewu borrowed the grace of the cow, and later exchanged the old buffalo for four sheep.

Li Yewu thought that the head of the Mu family had a love affair with him, so he would be polite, but who knew that people should take advantage of it.

Sure enough, being able to be one of the four major businessmen in Taiqi City is not a fuel-efficient lamp.

"Thirty thousand acres of land is a lot, and it costs 300,000 silver...... Princess, you ......"

"It's okay, the price is negotiated slowly, it's less than 8 million IOUs, isn't it."

Li Yewu took out the killer weapon, and these people could only laugh awkwardly.

Eight million taels is really outrageous, if it is converted into land, let alone Taiqi City, most of Dachu can be bought.

Consciously taking care of the loss, the head of the Quartet touched his nose: "Otherwise, how much money did you buy it at the beginning, and the princess still bought it back according to how much money, what do you think?" But the premise is that we don't accept IOUs, and we can only trade with real money. ”

When the head of the Quartet said this, the others were a little surprised.

Businessmen are heavy on profits, and this kind of trading that does not lose money or make money is the most boring, and the head of the Quartet is dizzy.

But after thinking about it, it really makes no sense to leave the wasteland in their hands, they are even abandoning their own fields, how can they have the energy to get new fields, it is better to sell them now at least without loss or loss.

After figuring it out, the crowd didn't speak again.

Anyway, it's not forceful, it's not going back.

In the face of imperial power, they are the weaker side in the end.

Li Yewu nodded: "It's still the head of the Quartet family who has insight, so I bother you to go back and sort out the land deed, and I will prepare a piece of the money to buy the land in ten days." ”

Everyone will wonder if the princess can really come up with so much money.

But looking at her confident appearance, it doesn't seem like a joke.

After leaving the house, several people naturally went to the wine store together.

Speaking of which, the main industry of the owner of the Sifang family is the wine store inn, and there are his chain stores all over Taiqi Prefecture and even in several states and counties next door, and the business is booming.

He naturally became the head of the four major families.

If the four of them want to discuss something, they will usually make an appointment in the private room of the Sifang Wine Shop.

After a few people were seated, the shopkeeper arranged the drinks with interest.

The head of the Liu family, who was at the end of the four major families, was the most insecure, and as soon as he sat down, he couldn't help but ask: "What kind of medicine did you say the princess sold in the gourd?" ”

The head of the Quartet family pondered for a long time before replying: "I sent someone to inquire, and it is said that the princess was also in business in Beijing before. ”

"I see!"

"It's no wonder she can easily see flaws in the ledger, and even be good at negotiation."

"This princess is not simple, as soon as she comes over, she immediately pays off her debts and buys land, it seems that she wants to put the palace back on track."

"Although Xiao Jiuxi is stupid, he has a capable daughter-in-law."

"Did she buy the land with the intention of growing her own food? What if she doesn't buy food from us in the future? ”

"Heh, can 30,000 acres feed everyone in Taiqi City? Besides, she also has to have the money to hire tenants, and today's tenants can't afford to hire them if they have money. ”

"Also, the salary has gone crazy these years, if she really cultivates the wasteland, she may not be more comfortable than now."

Speaking of which, there are two types of fields in Dachu, one is that all the harvest goes to the landlord, and the peasants only receive wages and basic rations.

The second type is that the peasants contract the fields and pay the landlords for the amount of grain per mu.

However, the general landlord operates in the first mode, after all, it is easy to manage.

The second type of contracted land is mostly run by the government, because the yamen do not have so much time to take care of the fields, and it is most convenient to rent it to tenants.

Although the main business of the four major families is to do business, they also have a lot of land in their hands, and they used to give farmers 200 yuan per month, but now it has risen to 800 yuan, but there are still very few people who are willing to stay.

The biggest reason is that in the slums, not only can you receive relief food and money, but you don't have to pay harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes, and who doesn't want this kind of good opportunity to eat without working.

In the past, the annual poll tax of 12 taels had already scared the people.

If there are 6 people in the family, it is 72 taels! Which family can afford it!

In the past, there was no choice, everyone could only grit their teeth, since Xiao Jiuxi made the slums and exempted them from harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes, people have gone to the slums.

"You say, will the princess cancel the welfare of the slums because there is no one to work?"

The head of the Xu family, who has always been a transparent person, asked silently.

Everyone was stunned, looked at each other and laughed.

"Although I dreamed that King Qi would cancel the welfare quickly, but it is impossible, not to mention anything else, there are now 800,000 people eating this benefit, and once it is canceled, it will definitely arouse public anger."

"It's also said that the people's anger is terrible, didn't the former king just collapse from the people's anger."

At that time, the emperor of Taihe would rather be broken than broken, and burned the city without waiting for the soldiers to come to the city, this act of ignoring the life and death of the people completely disappointed the people, and the people took the initiative to open the city gate under the stimulation of public anger, which prompted the Taihe City to finally break the country.

Speaking of this, the faces of the four major families are not very good-looking.

To put it bluntly, they are all slaves of the country, and they have no sense of belonging to Da Chu, but when it comes to the previous dynasty, they are very disgusted, who will remember a monarch who does not care about the life and death of the people?

"Forget it, don't go to court in advance, be careful that there is an old party." The head of the Liu family looked around nervously, for fear that a small loss of words would be lost.

Speaking of the old party, this group is more of a headache than bandits, they hide in the dark corners of Taiqi City, thinking about reversing Chu and reconciling every day, as long as they hear any words from the common people that slander the previous dynasty, the old party will kill them.

They are like mad dogs that have lost their homes, much more terrible than official bandits.
