Chapter 90: Buying a Mountain

Perhaps, he can use this opportunity to bring down the Ye family.

Distilled spirits are the key to the secret recipe of perfume, and the Ye family has always wanted to take away the secret recipe of perfume.

"Do what you like, and lead the snake out of the hole."

Ning Wuxian had a rough idea in his mind.

This matter needs to be explored first, Jiang Yan's attitude, and whether he can cooperate with him to deal with the Ye family.

At the moment, the most important thing for him is to break the monopoly of flowers, exacerbate the tension of the Ye family, and grasp the initiative in this business war.

"It's clear."

Ning Wuxiao opened the door and let the morning light from outside spill into the room.

"It's time to find a feng shui treasure to plant flowers."

After inquiring about it in Zhuangzi for two days, I learned that there was a hillside near Hanshan Temple, where wildflowers bloomed very well in all seasons.

It is said that a few decades ago, it was the largest flower planting place in Jinling, and the boss made his fortune by reselling goods from Jinling to the Western Regions, and also cultivated flowers from the Western Regions.

It's just that later the boss's family committed a major incident and was raided, and all the hillsides within a radius of three miles were confiscated.

It just so happened that that hillside was where Ning Wuxian had picked wild orchids last time.

There are fate and flowers, it is still a public place, and there are warrior monks stationed in the back of Saishan Temple, and the warrior monks belong to the jurisdiction of the government Zhaomo official, and it is not easy to have accidents.

As long as the transfer is successful, you don't have to worry about someone coming to find trouble in the future.

Ning Wuxian and his party climbed halfway up the Hanshan Temple, and looked towards the selected hillside, where they could see a sea of wildflowers, blooming after the rain.

"It's beautiful!"

Shen Youchu gestured in front of his eyes with his two small hands, choosing the right angle, and regretted very much that he had not prepared his pen and ink in advance, so that he could come here to sketch.

After the comparison, a layer of sweat broke out on her forehead, and she glanced at the sun in the sky again, rubbing her blackened eyes and reminded: "Ning Gongzi, this hillside is very sunny, the flowers in season grow well, and the flowers in the opposite season may not be able to be planted." ”

In order to be able to help Ning Gongzi, she asked Ju Xiang to bring a lot of books related to flower planting from the library.

Don't look at her in the Zhuangzi as if she was digging mud, in fact, she was inspecting the local soil according to what the books say.

The soil in this area is indeed fertile, but the temperature and humidity are relatively high, making it difficult to use the natural environment to cool down.

"Most of the out-of-season flower houses in Jinling are built in the shade, Ning Gongzi, why don't we rent the mountain behind Hanshan Temple to plant flowers?"

Shen Youchu thought the idea was great.

Ning Wuxian heard this, folded his hands and bowed reverently to the statue on the top of the mountain: "Miss Shen has no intentions, if the gods and Buddhas on the mountain are to blame, it is really my fault, if you want to punish it, please go to Cheng Gongzi." ”

is enjoying the beautiful scenery, and Cheng Yi, who wants to recite a poem after considering the words, directly broke the defense.

People stand on the mountain, and pots come up from heaven.

"Brother Ning, you coax other girls to be happy, why am I the one who was injured?" Cheng Yi stood a little further away from them.

lest thunder fall from the sky and hit oneself.

Shen Youchu was still seriously thinking about renting or even buying an entire Hanshan Temple, but seeing Ning Wuxian's unserious ridicule, he couldn't help but smile: "It seems that Ning Gongzi has made up his mind to buy that mountain, or not, we don't have to step on the muddy mountain road to go around, and we will go down the mountain after going up the mountain and paying off our wishes." ”

Ning Wuxian looked at Shen Youchu's back as he went up the mountain, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and his eyes were full of smiles.

Frank and cute while also taking care of other people's emotions.,It's really a rare good girl.。

"When I was in Jing'an City before, why didn't I find that Miss Shen was a good person?" Cheng Yi leaned over to him and muttered.

Ning Wuxiao suddenly realized a question: "Brother Cheng, how did you and Miss Shen meet?" ”

The way the two get along, you can understand at a glance that even if they are not acquainted, they are at least a half-life relationship.

Cheng Yi recalled hard, and said as he walked: "It seems that three years ago, I traveled to Jing'an City, and she caught me painting on the street and said that she would give me a thousand taels of silver. ”

Next, as if thinking of something not so good, Cheng Yi's face darkened slightly, and he said in a low voice: "Brother Ning, Miss Shen is chasing after you, and she may also want to draw you into the Jimei map." ”

Jimeitu?

That doesn't sound serious.

Ning Wuxian still wanted to ask a few questions, but when he saw that Cheng Yi suddenly became energetic, he jumped up the steps and ran away in a few steps.

"Childe, you go slowly, be careful of slippery after the rain!" The guards hurriedly chased forward, worried that their son-in-law would get into a fight with Miss Shen again.

Ning Wuxian saw that Cheng Yi had no heart and lungs, shook his head and smiled, he went around the bend and looked at the entire hillside to be bought.

I went to the temple to ask for the second uncle, added ten taels of silver and sesame oil money, and when I went down the mountain, I met a group of children who carried baskets on their backs to collect medicine.

A boy in his early tens, carrying a boy of five or six on his back, walked briskly past their group descending the mountain.

The boy's right foot and neck were swollen and tall, and there were snake teeth marks on them.

Fortunately, there were no poisonous snakes in this area, otherwise the boy would have died on the spot.

"Brother, you endure a little pain, today you picked He Shou Wu, and when your father goes to the market to sell the silver, you can buy meat to eat." The elder brother coaxed the boy who didn't cry or make trouble.

The friends who followed next to him were so hungry that they sucked their fingers, wishing that it was themselves who were bitten by the snake.

After Cheng Yi watched the group of children walk away, he stood in place and was stunned for a long time, and it took a long time to catch up with Ning Wuxiao and Shen Youchu and his party, and asked in shock: "Brother Ning, why don't they study, and they take the risk of going to the mountains to collect medicine?" ”

"Not everyone can afford to read."

Ning Wuxian was not surprised by this.

There are many such children in the world, and people in high positions can't meet them, so they feel that this world is full of minced meat.

Why would anyone fight for their lives just to earn a few taels of silver?

Why don't poor children change their fate through reading?

Why don't they work hard?

Is it that they don't want to work hard, is it that they are lazy?

It's just that Ning Wuxian didn't expect that Cheng Yi would be so surprised by this phenomenon, it seems that Daxing students always stand in the elegant hall, not very down-to-earth. "Don't Brother Cheng know that many children in peasant families can't even write their own names in their lives?"

Cheng Yi shook his head: he didn't know.

Seeing this, the guard hurriedly explained: "Son, you have been a prodigy since you were a child, and you have traveled to various academies all year round to study from Confucianism, and you have never even stayed in Zhuangzi on the outskirts of Beijing, so naturally you can't see these." ”

"Cheng Yi, you're really making a fuss." Shen Youchu secretly rejoiced: Fortunately, I didn't act too surprised, otherwise I would be the one who would be embarrassed.

Cheng Yi's complexion changed slightly, as if he had an understanding.

Ning Wuxiao thought that Cheng Yi was like a street slicker during this time, aimlessly following behind his ass, as if he was looking for something, and he happened to encounter this opportunity, which just allowed Cheng Yi to experience a different life.

"If Cheng Gongzi has nothing to do, it is better to stay in Zhuangzi and observe in depth how the poor people at the bottom live, and maybe he can find something to do."

Cheng Yi is a pure and true person.

Ning Wuxian felt that if Cheng Yi could find a direction suitable for his development, he would definitely have achievements in that aspect that were difficult for others to surpass.

"Really?" Cheng Yi was skeptical.

Ning Wuxian couldn't pack a ticket for this matter, so he could only encourage him: "What you get on paper is shallow, you have to know that this matter has to be done, whether it is true or not, and you have to know it in practice." ”

"I see, is this Brother Ning's way to success?"

"Ah...... Right. ”

A few words successfully left the two of Cheng Yi's master and servant in Zhangjiazhuang.

After going down the mountain, Ning Wuxian sent someone to secretly go to the government to inquire about the price of the mountain, so as not to make a mistake for Ye Tong when he heard the news and raised the price.

So he stayed on the Zhuangzi for three more days.

I usually check the types of flowers that grow naturally in the vicinity, and accompany Miss Shen to fish and catch shrimp in my spare time.

This time, Cheng Yi didn't follow them around again, but went to a nearby village school, saying that he would stay for a while longer and then return to the city.

On the way back, thinking that he would start delivering perfume tomorrow, Ning Wuxian passed by Liujiazhuang.
