Chapter 136: Land in Hand
After having a hot breakfast, Xu Ling ate casually, and then pulled the cart to find his father-in-law, Gu Litian.
Gu Litian also got up early in the morning, swept the door of the house, and when Xu Ling came, he packed up his things and went with him.
The two walked from Lianhuawanzi to Erfang Town, and walked for more than an hour to arrive, Xu Ling didn't know where Yang Tao's house was, so he went directly to Sun Baoyao's house to find someone.
Early in the morning, Sun Baoyao happened to be eating at home, and before he went to the yamen, he heard that Xu Ling was coming, so he hurriedly went out to greet him.
"Brother Xu! You're back so soon? Sun Baoyao was overjoyed and surprised, he thought that Xu Ling would not be able to come back until a few years later, who knew that he would do good things so quickly.
Invite Xu Ling and Gu Litian to sit down in the hall, serve tea and pour water, Xu Ling smiled and said, "Do things for Brother Sun, how can I delay?" No, I just came back the day before yesterday, and I hurried to do good things. ”
"That's good, Brother Xu is thinking of me in his heart, Master and I, and I are also thinking of you in our hearts, don't you want to buy land? I've already told your father-in-law, he should have told him, right? ”
The two of you come and go, greeting for a long time, and Sun Baoyao is about to be delayed, Xu Ling took out the money given to Sun Baoyao, the original twenty taels became forty taels, and it has only been half a month's work, my God, it is faster than giving birth to a child!
The joy on Sun Baoyao's face couldn't be delayed, and he directly asked Xu Ling to go to the yamen with him, so that he could hand over the title deed to Xu Ling.
Xu Ling fought this idea, he wanted land, he couldn't do without the title deed, and he simply asked the master and apprentice to hold him.
What's more, it is better to hand over the money earned to Yang Tao to Yang Tao in person.
Xu Ling asked the old man to wait outside the yamen, Sun Baoyao took him into the yamen, Yang Tao was sitting and drinking tea in a side room, the charcoal stove was burning in the house, several yacha were playing with the dice clock, yawning for a long time, seeing Sun Baoyao coming, he hurriedly took care of him to replace himself, and he went home to sleep.
Xu Ling stood aside and observed these yachas, and saw that they were all strangely shaped, tall, short, fat and thin, and Sun Baoyao and Yang Tao looked at them as normal yachas.
When Yang Tao saw him, he couldn't speak, and only jokingly urged the others to hurry home.
A fat yacha noticed Xu Ling: "Brother Sun, who is this?" ”
"Ask my master to do something, it's nothing."
"Oooh!" The fat man showed a tacit smile, patted Xu Ling's shoulder, opened his mouth, and smoked the stench of death.
Xu Ling held his breath, his face remained unchanged, and when the two of them went home, one went to the back barracks to sleep, and only they and Yang Tao were left in the room, and Yang Tao invited him to sit down and drink tea.
Xu Ling took out his purse, pushed it in front of Yang Tao, and said with a smile: "Uncle Yang, this is your money." ”
Yang Tao smiled and didn't speak, touched the purse, and a look of surprise flashed on his face, "You kid, you are really a God of Wealth!" ”
Xu Ling touched his head embarrassedly, "Thanks to Uncle Yang and Brother Sun, thanks to you, this time I was lucky, I made a little profit, and I will give you a little subsidy to make up for it." ”
"Oh? How embarrassing is that? I entrusted you to do something, because for the sake of Baoyao's relationship with you, I don't mean to take advantage of you at all, you make me very embarrassed like this, take it away! ”
Yang Tao, this old thing, actually pretended to be with Xu Ling.
Xu Ling was funny in his heart, he didn't give too much to these two people at all, and used their money to open a shop, and the money earned by the shop went to Yazhou to get a boat and a laborer, which suddenly revitalized his embarrassment.
The small pole pries the big boat, and it is not a big loss to give Yang Tao and his apprentice this bit of silver.
But the words still have to be said beautifully.
"Uncle Yang, don't! This is my little filial piety, you have worked hard to help me, just when I give you a New Year's greeting in advance! If you really go back, how can Baoyao and I still call each other? ”
Yang Tao didn't really want to refuse, and when he saw the sincerity of what Xu Ling said, he reluctantly accepted it.
Sun Baoyao thought to himself on the side, it turned out that Xu Ling had added money to it, no wonder he got so much in such a short time.
"Baoyao, you take Xu Ling to find the master book, or the original rhetoric."
"Yes, Master."
Sun Baoyao took Xu Ling out, and after walking out for a while, Xu Lingcai asked, "Isn't there no master book in the yamen?" ”
"Hey, I didn't have it before, I just had it a few days ago."
Oh, just now, what did Yang Tao say about letting him raise money to do it? Xu Ling went around in a circle in his heart, and he also understood that the master and apprentice may not have any intention of being the master bookkeeper at all, and people promote their nephews, no matter how much money you pay as an outsider, it's useless!
Together, these two things are just to pit his money!
His grandfather's, an alternative two-way rush belonged to yes.
The new bookkeeper's surname is Yang, and he looked at some, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he said sour words, and Sun Baoyao didn't say anything polite when he went, and directly asked him to draw out the land deeds of the land that Xu Ling had originally fancied.
Xu Ling smiled on the side, stopped Sun Baoyao, and stuffed silver ingots into his pocket.
Sun Baoyao's mind paused, the words in his mouth paused, and when he opened his mouth again, the ghost envoy said: "You can give him these pieces of land that no one wants, anyway, if you are idle, you will be idle." ”
The master bookkeeper glanced at Sun Baoyao and Xu Ling in surprise, these lands can be regarded as tuntian in the town, and they can be regarded as the land of those people in the military camp, but in the past few years, the military masters have been too lazy to plant and have been abandoned, but they can't be assigned to others!
"But ......"
"Don't be!" Sun Baoyao said impatiently, "You just listen to my master, and it'll be fine!" ”
The master bookkeeper lowered his head and did not speak, and began to do his errands.
After half a pillar of incense, Xu Ling put a pile of paper into his sleeve and smiled kindly, "Brother Sun, I want to thank you so much, when will I ask you to invite you to the restaurant again?" ”
Sun Baoyao grabbed his neck, "You kid, there have been too many drinks recently, and some of them can't be eaten, so you can save them for next year and invite me." But there's one more thing I want to trouble you, man......"
When Xu Ling came out of the yamen, the forty taels of silver given to Sun Baoyao returned to him.
He stepped over the high threshold of the yamen, took a deep breath, and Gu Litian under the Yuanchu tree hurriedly walked over, "How is it?" ”
Xu Ling shook his head and signaled that there was a yamen behind him.
The two pulled the car and walked away, and Xu Lingcai took out the pile of land deeds on his body to let the old man have a good time.
"So much?"
"Twenty acres more than the original," Xu Ling whispered.
He originally thought that he would buy Sun Baoyao temporarily, and he could get a few more acres of land, but he didn't expect Sun Baoyao to directly give him twenty acres for nothing, or Tuntian.
In this dynasty, there is a law that the barracks are used to farming, and when you are a soldier, you have to farm the land and bring your own grain and grass, which was originally a good idea, but over the years, it has changed its flavor and has become a field for people to buy and sell at will.
Xu Ling deliberately asked for a piece of land near Lotus Bay, even if there was really something, he had the title deed given by the yamen, and when the sky fell, Sun Baoyao's master and apprentice stood in front of him.
It's just that Xu Ling didn't expect that Sun Baoyao was even more greedy than Yang Tao, and wanted him to use money to give more money.
Hey, it's really not enough to swallow elephants.
