When the tooth man saw that this patron was not satisfied, his heart sank.

It's been a long time, and no one has been willing to come and see, and I'm finally looking forward to such a person, but obviously I can't look down on this place!

"Sir, take a look again. Although this mountain is a little desolate, you don't need to pay taxes to buy this kind of place. Don't look at the fact that you spent 920 taels to buy 70 or 80 acres of land, but there is a lot of output in this mountain, and when the autumn comes, you can also bring your family over to hunt, which is also a good place. ”

Xie Xiuwen didn't speak, just this broken mountain, what good things can there be?

He had just swept roughly, and the trees on this mountain were basically common in the north, and there were no particularly rare varieties, even a few fruit trees that he occasionally saw, but they were just ordinary pears and peaches, nothing unusual.

Xie Xiuwen was thinking about whether it was wrong, but he felt that his sleeves were sinking, and it was Xie Rongzhao who was dragging it.

"Good baby, what's wrong?"

Xie Xiuwen picked her up directly, and then moved two steps to the side.

Xie Rongzhao didn't know why, he just felt that there were good things on this mountain.

"Daddy, buy it."

Xie Xiuwen raised his eyebrows: "Are you serious?" ”

"Uh-huh, Daddy buy it, I just saw a rabbit, maybe there is a rabbit nest."

When the words fell, Xie Rongzhao leaned into his ear and whispered: "Daddy, when you buy it, I'll take you to find good things." ”

Xie Xiuwen had dug things in the mountains of her hometown with her, so he naturally knew that her luck was not ordinarily good.

Thinking like this, it's good to buy it, at least after the spring of next year, there will be a place to bring a few of them over to relax, and more than nine hundred taels, he can't take it out, it's a big deal to control the expenses in the future, especially some unnecessary literary meetings, if you can't go, you won't go.

Xie Xiuwen had a plan in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face.

"Master, you see that although you can't grow food on this mountain, this tree is vigorous, and you can come to hunt and pick fruits in your spare time, which is also a special interest."

Tooth people don't want to miss this order, so they naturally pick up a good sound.

"How much land is there? In addition, who did they all give it to, or did they all say that the servants of the original owner's family were planting it themselves? ”

As soon as the tooth man heard that there was a play, he immediately gave a detailed introduction.

After some bargaining, it was finally sold for 910 taels, and now the crops grown in this field have to be owned by the buyer, that is to say, as soon as the silver is paid and the deed is changed, the things here have nothing to do with the original owner's family.

There is a house on the mountain, not big, there are all kinds of total, there are more than a dozen rooms, it is said that when the main family was glorious in the past, he came here for a spring outing.

The house was actually in disrepair, and it looked like it hadn't been inhabited for at least six or seven years.

Fang Hu went in and took a turn, and looked around to report back.

"The house needs to be repaired again, the roof is missing tiles, the doors and windows are broken in a few places, and I don't see any decent furniture in it, so I might as well just chop it up and burn it for firewood."

Xie Xiuwen nodded, anyway, he won't come over again for a while, and there is no hurry to repair this house.

"Let's wait until it's warm next year."

"Yes, sir."

Since the group came out, they naturally wanted to relax for two days, and the tooth man had already gone to the yamen to go through the relevant procedures, and he had to introduce the main family to the tenants here, etc., after all, they were all busy.

There were not many fields, but there were seven tenants in all, and both sides met, and then the new tenant deeds were written, and the old ones were burned in front of them.

Because Xie Xiuwen is the new master, he is also very good at talking, and only said that the rent next year will be less than 10%, which makes the farmers present happy.

This year's rent has already been paid, and Xie Xiuwen is not in a hurry, anyway, there is this mountain, at least the firewood used at home has been settled, which is much cheaper than buying firewood directly in the capital.

Fang Hu went out for a walk, and when he came back, he reported it truthfully.

"The younger one has already found the second son of the Song tenant family, and in the future, let him send a cart of firewood to our house every day, which must be chopped, twenty yuan a day, and if it is rainy and snowy, it will be free."

Xie Xiuwen nodded, Fang Hu thought about these trivial matters very thoughtfully.

Liu Ruolan was also very satisfied with the housekeeper: "I went to the firewood room yesterday to see it, and the firewood in it can be used for half a month." This is a cart of firewood a day in the future, but there are a lot, and we are afraid that we will not need these. ”

"Be prepared."

This is the north, and although the weather is dry, it is not always humid and rainy than in the south, but the problem is that once it snows heavily, it is impossible to move forward.

Therefore, Fang Hu's arrangement is not wrong.

And they are such a big family now, they only store firewood for half a month, which is not much.

"Fang Hu, don't take a cart of firewood a day, you tell the Song family, let them help dispose of some dead trees on this mountain, and then chop the firewood and send it to Beijing, and give them fifty yuan a day."

Fang Hu was silent for a moment: "Cheng, the little one will go and order, just say that at least one cart of firewood a day, together with the wages for repairing these dead trees, a total of fifty yuan." ”

Xie Xiuwen nodded: "Yes." ”

In the evening, they stayed at an inn in the town.

I have to go up the mountain again tomorrow, so there is no need to toss back and forth.

Because it is at the foot of the Son of Heaven, the security here is still very good, and when Xie Xiuwen was buying pastries for Bao Bao outside, he also saw several inspectors patrolling with knives.

The next day, just after breakfast, the tooth man came over with a happy face.

"Master Xie, this is the land deed and the title deed, both brought to you. Now that everything is in place, you are the new master here. ”

"Okay, thank you."

In addition to the nine hundred and ten taels of silver money to buy the land, Xie Xiuwen also paid the tooth man a reward of ten taels.

It's an unwritten rule.

Generally speaking, what the tooth person earns is given by the seller, but those who have a little bit of dignity will give a reward again, so they can deal with each other often.

Xie Xiuwen thought that he would have more things to buy in the future, and seeing that this person was sincere, he could find him more to do things in the future.

The tooth man was so happy to see that he couldn't see his teeth, and he took out two copies of the deed from his arms.

"Look at the small memory, you see, this is a pair of grandchildren left here by the original owner's family, and he has no ability, it is said that the grandfather used to fight with the general, and then joined his family as a domestic servant. It's just that now the old master is already here, and the new master doesn't have much affection for him, so I simply hand over this deed to you. ”

Xie Xiuwen raised his eyebrows slightly, thinking of the pair of grandchildren he saw in the wooden house at the foot of the mountain yesterday.

"The lame old man?"

"Exactly, I lost half a leg, and I was disgusted by the new owner a few years ago, so I sent here to be a mountain watchman, in fact, I think they are a drag, and I want to drive them out." (End of chapter)
