Reborn Nongmen's little lucky wife

Chapter 950

After Mrs. Chen finished speaking, she stared straight at Gu Jinli, her eyes bubbling with sourness: "It's still Xiaoyu who is smart, and asked Angle to come to Fucheng to buy the house two years ago, unlike us, now it is I can’t even buy it.”

After finishing speaking, he was afraid that Gu Jinli would scold him, so he hurriedly changed the topic and scolded those wealthy households who had fled famine: "Why are those bastards so greedy? They used to live in Fucheng when they were in their hometown in the Northwest. All the houses were sold out. After escaping to the south, they bought houses in Fucheng of He'an Prefecture, not to mention buying up all the houses in He'an Prefecture, and even raised the price..."

It was a lot of scolding. In short, she couldn't buy a cheap house in Fucheng, so she felt upset and had to scold.

Gu Jinli just looked at her without saying a word. After greeting Gu Dashan and Cui Shi, they went back to the courtyard where they lived.

In the main room of the courtyard, Daqing, Erqing, and Xiaoji were all there, and there was a picture on the table in front of the three of them, which was a picture of the city of He'an Prefecture drawn by Qin Sanlang.

Qin Sanlang had learned how to be a scout, so he knew how to draw these blueprints. In addition to the roads and landmarks in the mansion, this city map of He'an Mansion also showed the mountains, lakes, mountain roads and official roads on the outskirts of the city. It is clear at a glance.

Gu Jinli pointed to a piece of tunnel at the westernmost end of the city, near the city gate: "Even the city gate will be bought, and the land on the right will be vacated for Xiao Sui and the others to build five houses with shops in the front and houses in the back. Little beggar."

Xiao Sui is the leader of beggars in the west of the city. With the help of You'an, he has grown from a small beggar to a big beggar in the city. With more than 200 beggars under his command, he has become a veritable "leader of the beggar gang".

He asked again: "What's going on with the Zhou family and the Mu family in the north of the city, have they agreed?"

In addition to wanting to buy the ruins in the west of the city, Gu Jinli also set his sights on a piece of wasteland in the north of the city.

That piece of wasteland covers an area of ​​tens of acres, and it is the ancestral home of a noble from the previous dynasty, but that noble from the previous dynasty was loyal to the previous dynasty and would rather die than surrender. , his whole family was killed.

In addition, the Great Chu army also used that place as an execution ground and chopped off the heads of many wealthy households from the previous dynasty who refused to surrender.

Although Dachu has been established for decades, Dachu believes in ghosts and gods. So many people died in that place, and it was rumored to be haunted. It has been empty until now, and it has become a wasteland with thatch.

However, there were two old houses in front of that wasteland. If she wanted a road leading directly to the north city gate, she had to buy those two old houses.

Daqing said: "The son of the Zhou family is promising, and he is a guest of a rich family in Zhongzhou. I can't come back to take my mother to reunite within the time."

Gu Jinli said: "There is no need for the Zhou family's son to send someone to pick them up. As long as the Zhou family is willing to sell the house, we will be responsible for escorting Mrs. Zhou there. As long as the things in the house are what Mrs. Zhou wants, it is considered a broken stool. We'll ship them there too."

Xiao Ji laughed and said, "Little Boss, what if Mrs. Zhou wants to transport a handful of thatch over there?"

Erqing's icy eyes immediately stabbed at Xiaoji, frightened Xiaoji, and hurriedly said: "I, I was wrong, I will correct it."

Erqing, like Daqing, was born in a water bandit village, and trained under Qin Sanlang with You An and the others, all of them had a murderous look.

Er Qing had also learned the rules of the noble family, and was very displeased with Xiao Ji's laughing and joking appearance all day long. Recently, he took Xiao Ji to learn the rules, and if he didn't learn well, he would be punished.

Although Gu Jinli feels sorry for Xiaoji, she lives in Dachu now, and some rules cannot be broken, otherwise the servants will rebel, so instead of scolding Erqing, she just said to Xiaoji: "Our business is getting bigger and bigger, sometimes we have to Use some tricks, and follow Erqing's example."

These are the second, and the most important thing is that she and Brother Qin are going to be engaged, and the two will be husband and wife in the future. The Qin family's enmity will become her enmity. A person who can survive in a sea of ​​corpses and blood.

She is very satisfied with Xiaoji and doesn't want to replace this loyal maid, but now the situation has changed, Xiaoji can no longer just be a little maid, she has to learn other powerful skills and means from Erqing.

Only when Xiaoji is good can her side be safe, and Brother Qin can rest assured.

"Well, the slave girl knows." Xiaoji responded, a little bit like crying but didn't dare to cry.

"What's going on with the Mu family?" Gu Jinli asked.

Daqing said: "There are many people, but there is little income. If you want to slaughter us, you will need a lot of money."

The Mu family has four generations living under the same roof, and each generation is more productive. Now there are 21 great-grandchildren of Mu Patriarch alone. Among these 21 grandchildren, only one is a girl, and the other [-] are screaming for love. Among the boys who marry their daughter-in-law, the oldest one is twenty-three.But because his family was poor and there were many people, he was disliked by the girls in Fucheng, so he has not yet married a wife.

If they get married and have children, the fifth generation of great-great-grandchildren can give birth to two.

"How much does the Mu family want? Who said they want this money?" Gu Jinli asked.

Daqing said: "The land plus the house cost us 5000 taels of silver. The person we were talking to was Mr. Mu, who was in a hurry to marry his grandchildren. We told him that it was too expensive, and the house was worth 1000 taels. But he cried and said that everything in Fucheng is expensive, and the 5000 taels of silver will be used to buy four houses in Fucheng. It’s biting to death and not letting go.”

After hearing this, Xiaoji said, "The Mu family is also quite pitiful."

In the end, Erqing stared at him again: "Just because their family is poor, we have to be taken advantage of and pay five times more expensive than before to buy their house? You haven't seen that house, it's about to collapse gone."

After hearing this, Xiaoji didn't dare to speak anymore. The little boss likes money so much, if she is asked to spend so much money to buy a house that is about to collapse, she will be so angry that she can't eat meat.

Gu Jinli said to Erqing: "You go to Mu's house tomorrow, fetch Patriarch Mu, and tell her that I want to see her, and talk to her about the house in person."

Mrs. Mu is playing a scoundrel, so don't talk to him, just go past him and find his wife.

Er Qing's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he said: "Young master is smart, this servant will definitely bring Patriarch Mu here tomorrow."

Gu Jinli talked to Daqing and Erqing about a lot of things, and after doing some calculations, he felt that it was a good deal, and even took advantage of it, and went to bed happily.

The next day, Erqing got up early, took gifts, and went to Mu's house in the north of the city in Chenshi's mule cart.

The great-great-grandson of the Mu family was sitting on the steps outside the gate, thinking about Tang Niang from the Dai family in the north of the city. When he saw Er Qing coming, he was overjoyed, and rushed into the house and shouted: "Master, come out quickly, buy a The man from the house is here again!"

Tangniang's family wanted a gift money of 100 taels of silver, but his family couldn't even get ten taels of silver. If the house could be sold for 5000 taels, then the gift money of 100 taels of silver would be available.
