Reborn Nongmen's little lucky wife

Chapter 258 A Wasteland【Happy Valentine's Day】

Qingfu Town has been established for a long time, and He'an Mansion is close to the south of the Yangtze River, so it is richer than the northwestern side of Zhongzhou. Any wealthy household with some skills will send people to search for shops everywhere. As long as there is something for sale, it will be bought soon .

"There are only three streets in Qingfu Town. Front Street, Back Street, and Main Street, all the shops on the streets are owned. And the shops on the Main Street have long been occupied by wealthy households in the county. "

Even in the two unremarkable streets of Front Street and Back Street, the shops were bought by the families of the chiefs, scribes, and yamen servants.

The rest of the shop was left by a family who had lived in the town for nearly a hundred years. It was the ancestral property. The yard in front of the shop and the back of the house was the foundation of the family's survival, and no one would sell it.

Old Doctor Wu explained to them the relationship between the shops on the street: "I have been in the town for more than [-] years, that is, five years ago, Mr. Zhou's house on the main street sold a shop, and it was still Mr. Zhou. Dong Weng Gaosheng, Mr. Zhou went to take office with him, so he sold it. You want to buy a shop, it is difficult."

Gu Jinli frowned when he heard that, it was so difficult to buy a shop in Qingfu Town.

Mrs. Chen originally came here happily, and wanted to buy a shop to be the shopkeeper's lady. When she heard what Old Doctor Wu said, her face was struck by lightning: "What should we do? Can't you help us?"

"Mr. Chen, what are you talking about? Shut up quickly." The third grandfather scolded Mrs. Chen. Old doctor Wu has already helped them a lot, so they can't just ask old doctor Wu to help them with everything.

"Brother Ang, the younger generation is ignorant, so don't worry about it."

Old Doctor Wu waved his hand and said with a smile, "It's all right."

Gu Dagui and his wife have been setting up a stall in the town for so long, and the people in Xuanhufang have long known Chen's temper.This person's heart is not bad, but he is greedy for cheap, and sometimes he has no clue when he speaks.

While they were talking, Gu Jinli untied the bamboo tube from his waist, took out a pen and ink, and began to write and draw.

She learned from Qin Sanlang.Qin Sanlang would carry a machete, a rope, a torch, and two small bamboo tubes with him. One of the small bamboo tubes contained a brush and rolled yellow paper, and the other contained mixed ink.

After a while, she drew a simple map of Qingfu Town according to her own memory, and asked old doctor Wu: "Grandpa Wu, is the open space outside the town's gatehouse in the town or in Shangjia Village?"

Shangjia Village is the nearest village to the town, and outside the gatehouse of the town, there is a large piece of wasteland. I don't know who owns those wastelands?

And it was that wasteland that Gu Jinli had his eye on.

No one in the town sells a shop, it doesn't matter, she can buy land and build it herself!

Old doctor Wu couldn't answer: "I'm not sure, the land outside the gatehouse has been deserted for a long time. When I came, there used to be a pond there, but later because there was no running water, it stinks in summer. Everyone It was filled up, and now people in the town don’t care where the garbage is dumped, but the people who dumped Yexiang will burn the garbage once a month.”

Gu Jinli frowned, who actually owned that piece of wasteland, even Old Doctor Wu didn't know.

Mrs. Wu is old and sophisticated, and when she heard Gu Jinli's question, she knew what she was planning.However, old doctor Wu is not the kind of person with shallow eyes. Even if he knew, he would not go to grab the land from Gu Jinli. Instead, he reminded: "Shang Xiucai or the Jiang family may know that if you want to do this, you have to avoid Pay attention to people, lest it attracts people's eyes before it is finished."

This kid is smart, with sharp eyes, he can see the wasteland at a glance.

"Yes, this junior understands, thank you Grandpa Wu for reminding me." Gu Jinli thanked Old Doctor Wu with a smile.Old doctor Wu is right, as the saying goes, the meat that no one snatches is rotten meat, but once someone snatches it, the rotten meat will become a Buddha jumping over the wall, and it will be fragrant to you immediately.

"Xiaoyu, old doctor Wu, what kind of charades are you playing?" Chen was anxious, and ran over to stare at Gu Jinli and asked.

Gu Jinli stretched out his hand to push her away, put away the simple map that had been drawn, and said, "We didn't play charades, we were talking in human language."

Chen choked. Gu Jinli, a dead child, hurt her every time she spoke, but she couldn't do anything to her. Gu Jinli was fierce and loved to use knives. She was not her opponent.

The third grandfather said: "Don't ask, what Xiaoyu is going to do is not good for our family? If you ask here and there, it will ruin Xiaoyu's business, I will not forgive you."

Don't look at Chen's aggressiveness, but she is very afraid of the third grandpa. Hearing this, although she felt itchy in her heart, she wanted to know Gu Jinli's plan, but she had no choice but to give up.

Gu Jinli already had a plan in mind, so he handed a 100 tael bank note to old doctor Wu: "Grandpa Wu, this is the money for the medicinal materials you sent the day before yesterday, you take it first."

He said embarrassingly: "If things go well, I may owe some money for the remaining medicinal materials. I will not give it to you until April 26, when Lord Lei Wu settles the payment for us."

Old Doctor Wu took the bank note and said, "Sure, it's just on credit, I'm afraid you will run away."

Old doctor Wu has some background, he has seen big money, a few hundred taels is nothing in his eyes, and he can trust the Gu family.

Although they came from famine, they are all honest people.

Gu Jinli was very grateful, and talked with old doctor Wu for a while, and played with Du Xusheng and Du Dingxiang for a while, then said goodbye and left.

Old doctor Wu asked Du Xusheng and his siblings to see them off.

After leaving Xuanhufang, Du Xusheng said: "Grandpa Gu, come and visit us when you have time. Grandpa has mentioned you several times and said that he wants to drink with you all the time."

Grandpa often said that they came from famine and had no backer in Qingfu Town, but they were from the same town as Grandpa Gu, so they kept in touch with each other more and showed their feelings so that if something happened to his family in the future, he could have someone to help him people.

"Hey, the third grandpa knows, go back and tell your grandpa, come back next time, I will wait for him to come back, and drink with him before leaving."

"Okay, I'll tell grandpa." Du Xusheng happily replied.

The third grandpa smiled and patted Du Xusheng's head, then turned around and left with a few people.

Gu Jinli said: "Third Grandpa, let's go to Shangjia Village without waiting for Uncle Luo and the others to close the stall."

She has to ask who owns the land?Is there a master or not?If there is no owner, go directly to the county government to buy it.

The third grandfather said: "Okay, let's go now."

When Mrs. Chen heard this, she shouted: "Sanbo, let's go back now? Why don't you go to the town and ask who has a shop for sale?"

Luo Huiniang said: "Auntie, old doctor Wu has already said that all the shops in this town are owned and no one sells them, so why ask? No one will be kicked out."

"What do you know? Even if no one sells it at the beginning, as long as we are willing to pay more, there will naturally be those who are willing to sell it." Chen is very rich and powerful, and feels that as long as they spend money, someone in the town will be willing to sell it. shop.
