During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, metallurgical technology developed rapidly, especially the smelting and casting technology of copper was outstanding.

People have also wisely summed up many ways to find mineral deposits, such as relying on a certain plant, relying on the search for associated minerals.

Jiang Anrao said that the terracotta is so familiar, there is easy iron ore under the terracotta!

Of course, it could also be chalcopyrite.

The current smelting of the Qin State seems to be mainly copper, but if it is a little later, it should slowly start to smelt iron.

Wang Yun, this guy, said that he had traveled all over Wugong County, and he must have found the mineral deposits over there, so he said that he would accompany them to choose the land, and then it was just for them to buy the mine.

Well? Does Wang Yun know iron ore?

Seeing that Jiang Xi had already begun to discuss the specific pricing of these two pieces of land with other officials, Jiang An said that Uncle would not get carried away when he heard that he would not have to pay taxes for three years, right?

Of course, she was also excited when she learned that there was a mine in that wasteland.

But when I think about it, even if there is a mine, what kind of mine it is, whether it can be mined, and how much it can be mined, it is difficult to say.

Their family is less than 1,000 people, and they want to raise cattle, horses and sheep, open up wasteland and farm, and do they still need to open mines?

It's not a good thing to tell the difference! Do you have to learn a shadow clone technique?

Seeing that Jiang Xi was about to make a decision, Jiang Anrao hurriedly told Jiang Dad about the pros and cons he had analyzed, so that Jiang Dad and Jiang Xi could wake up.

After letting him know everything, he will think about it all and make a decision.

Jiang Ruoyang agreed, and walked next to Jiang Xi.

Fortunately, although Jiang Xi heard that the tax exemption for three years is a bit of a top, he has not lost his mind. This kung fu found that his younger brother was silent and listened to it, and he also calmed down, and finally discussed it with the county order and the clerk, saying that our brother studied and studied, and I don't know if it will work.

Of course, the county magistrate said that it was okay!

Can a cow still press its head without drinking water? You have to sell the land under the county order, not to mention that the Jiang family is not the kind of person who has no background!

Even if someone comes to buy it on weekdays, the clerk has to be patient, so the audience said that he was very similar to the manager of the sales office.

"You don't have to be in a hurry, you can go back to the post house to discuss and come back in two days." The county magistrate said very kindly.

Jiang Xi hurriedly thanked him!

But when Jiang Xi heard Jiang Ruoyang tell him that Wang Yun speculated that there might be mines in that wasteland, but he didn't know how many mines there were, whether they could be mined, and there was a certain risk in buying them, Jiang Xi grabbed Jiang Ruoyang.

"Brother Yang, in this case, let's settle the place!"

Jiang Xi said, turned his head and went to the county order and the scriptor:

"Xi and the others have discussed it!"

"Oh, where did the Jiang family decide to buy?" The scribe was a little surprised by Jiang Xi's crispness, but he still asked with a smile.

Jiang Xi was very atmospheric, and raised his hand to point to the smaller place in the northeast:

"Here!"

Jiang Ruoyang was a little surprised, but he also felt that it was reasonable, so he didn't say anything and looked at it. When the scripture officer heard this, he was just about to nod, but he saw Jiang Xi's finger move down, and then pointed to the two wastelands on the west side, and said:

"And these two!"

Clerk: ......

Jiang Ruoyang glared and exchanged glances with his daughter.

Uncle Jiang once again jumped out of their train of thought!

The prefectural order was also a little surprised:

"Do you know the rules for the county government to purchase land? Need to pay all at once? ”

"Thank you for reminding me, Jiang Xi knows. Bother the clerk to draft the deed, right? ”

Jiang Xi said with great confidence.

Don't you have the confidence, the Jiang family sold 30,000 gold in the Song Kingdom just for their fiefdom! Although some of them were later offset with grain and silk, after all, they were a minority, and with the previous accumulation, the Jiang family still had nearly 30,000 pieces of gold!

They brought all this gold here!

The price of the small piece of land in the northeast is about 600 mu, and the price is 600 gold per mu, and it takes 3,600 gold to buy it;

The unit price of the two wastelands on the west side is extremely low, but 30 gold per acre! The two pieces add up to 8,000 acres, which is cheaper than the small piece of land to buy all of them, only 2,400 pieces of gold!

At this moment, Jiang Xi not only wants to buy it, but also asks, is there such a place in Wugong County? He wants to do it all, okay?

Jiang Dad and Jiang Anrao thought that although there are mines there, they may not be suitable for mining, and the output is unknown, so Jiang Xi is advised to be cautious, but Jiang Xi is a businessman's idea, so he doesn't care about that!

What business is not a gamble? Whether you can pick it or not, how much you can pick, you have to buy it first!

It's not expensive!

Wait until you buy it, why don't you try it?

When the time comes, you can toss whatever you want on your own land, isn't it?

What's more, you don't have to pay taxes for three years! If it's a big deal, it's going to be wasted!

So he was still hesitant before, after Jiang Ruoyang said that there was a mine, he directly bought it!

Jiang Xi not only wants to buy land, he also wants to buy a house in the county seat of Wugong County! Who made this land so much cheaper than he thought! Thinking about it, I asked about the house again. The county magistrate said that the clerk was also responsible for this matter.

The scribe was surprised by Jiang Xi's wealth, but he quickly recovered.

The Jiang family must have a background, and it is not strange that they can come up with so much money at once. The value of houses in Wugong County is indeed much higher than that of surrounding villages and towns, but it is still much cheaper than the land price.

Jiang Xi wanted to find a house that was big enough to accommodate the Jiang family's population.

The official said that there is such a house in the county that meets the requirements of the Jiang family, and he can take the Jiang family to see it in person later!

Jiang Xi thanked him, but hoped to end the matter of buying the land first.

Seeing this, the officials confessed to the county order and went to draft the land purchase contract. Of course, this is called the deed. First, a copy was drafted in cowhide, and the contents were copied into the official deed.

The official deed is made of sealed and framed silk silk, which looks a bit like the pennant of later generations......

The deed details which land is traded, such as how many miles from Wugong County in the east, how many miles to the west, where to the south, and where to the north; Who is the buyer, how much is the price, etc.

In the end, there are two deeds that will be handed over to the Jiang family for preservation: one is a small piece of land in the northeast, and the other is directly counted as one of the two wastelands on the west side and the woods in the middle, and a large piece is given to the Jiang family.

Jiang Xi looked at the deed book, and his heart blossomed!

Of course, at this time, the transaction is not completed, and the Jiang family has not paid the money.

Jiang Xi hurriedly confessed and had to go back to the post house to get the money to the county office. When the money is in place, the county order can be stamped, and the deed will take effect!

The amount of money involved in the purchase of land is usually huge, so the county order directly asked a team of soldiers to follow Jiang's family back to the post house. And then he was on the outside.

Jiang Xi arrived at the post house and hurriedly looked for someone, overturned the box, took out the gold, packed the box, and then came to the empty carriage to transport the gold to the county office.

Dumping, counting, carrying, and sending to the county office, these tosses are a morning's time.

By noon, Jiang Xi finally got the "freshly baked" title deed!
