The peasant girl is not strong

Chapter 277 The manor next door is going to be sold

Butler Meng has sent a message for a day or two. Seeing that the host has sold two shops and is about to return to Beijing, the luggage is almost packed.

He was a little confused, if the manor couldn't be sold, would the owner keep him, let alone reunite with his family during the Spring Festival.

If the manor does not change hands in the future, will he stay here in the villa, manage the manor here, go to Kyoto and manage it here? If there is a choice, of course, there will be more opportunities in prosperous places.

After managing the manor here for half a year, I feel a lot older, tanned, and thinner. In winter, the cold wind blows, and my hands peel off when riding a horse, and my face has been burst by the cold wind.

Is this still the previous steward Meng who managed the scenery in the inner courtyard?
When Ye Shiqi listened to her parents' chat, her parents didn't have that intention to buy the manor next door. They felt that their management was not very good, and they couldn't make money if they bought it at a high price.

Ye Shiqi looked at the manor next door, it was a bit more expensive, if the management is as good as here, it can actually make money.

She feels that not everyone's management can be like theirs. They not only rely on management, but also rely on her space to grow crops. Well-produced crops cannot pay back so quickly.

Ye Shiqi heard that the land bought by the manor next door is more expensive than the land bought by their family. It seems that this is the reason why their manor is difficult to sell.

She didn't immediately suggest that her parents buy the manor next door, and she also knew that her parents' money had been invested in the previous manor, and the manor near the road hadn't had a better harvest yet.

In the matter of buying and selling, you have to ask the other party to see if you can lower the price a little. It’s the same in business. If you don’t have a profit, you don’t make a move, and you do risky things. If you don’t have a strong benefit in front of you, who would take this risk!
In fact, Ye Shiqi also thought about it. The cattle vigorously cultivated in the manor now can be planted on the mountain of the manor next door, and there is no need to buy paddy fields.

This is already a paddy field far away in the village, and it is not a high-quality field. Like the manor next door, some are still swamp fields. It is not the most productive reason to grow rice. When the swamp land was planted by the people, the mud reached the thighs of adults. Deep, planting vegetables is okay.

At that time, these people bought the fields here to plant the manor, and the price was so high, and they just wanted to make money from their manor!
Those who sell the land can get such a high price, and some people laugh secretly. The family of the county magistrate is someone who has never planted the land. To buy such a high price of land, how much crops must be harvested to pay back?
Those who saw the joke persisted for more than half a year, but others were afraid to say it. Those who were poached by high prices later regretted it.

No one figured out why the planting quality of the manor couldn't improve when the same farmland operation was just next door.

When Meng Zhaojun bought the land, he thought about getting water from the next door, and wanted someone else's space to grow the land, so he wanted to make a fortune.

It's just that she was half-hearted in doing things, and she also ordered her servants to do this kind of thing, but the water was transferred from their manor, not from the other man's manor.

Moreover, the manors on both sides can have water in different directions, and one manor cannot have water in one place. They all have high and low fields.

The manors on both sides are surrounded by guardrails, especially the places where the land is planted are planted with thorny vines. The planting near the next door is okay, and the crops are not so ideal in the farther places where the water of the next manor cannot be reached.

The next door suddenly wanted to buy land at a high price to build the manor, and even poached their employees, and the manager was also on guard.

Later, Ye Shiqi only put water from her space into the pool and the well in order to conceal it even more, and only went to the manor once in a while.

In the second half of the year, rice can be grown well without using much space water, but she still did it, just to reduce pests in the crops.

Ye Shiqi didn't pour out space water in front of others, they didn't even know what she did.

I saw that she sometimes went up the mountain, and she came to the manor with her sisters. Who would have thought that a little girl had special abilities.

Ye Shiqi can use her mind to expand the range of space crops and space water to 100 meters, and do it when people are not paying attention.

Ye Shiqi thinks this is like a supernatural power. She used her mind to call out the space water and did it in front of her sisters. The water in the well was filled with space water. The sisters didn't know, because they couldn't see her mind call out. Out of space water.

Ye Shiqi sometimes wonders in her heart, if she uses her mind to do bad things, will she be unnoticed, like a female hero who robs the rich and helps the poor.

For example, there are several rich men in their village. I heard that their behavior is not very good, and they have deducted long wages.

She didn't do that, one good and one evil is just a thought, God can give her a golden finger, can give her a new life, maybe it makes her live better in this era, it doesn't mean that she can do whatever she wants.

The money that is not obtained by one's own struggle, not earned by one's own hard work, will not feel at ease when you spend it, but you will also be afraid that one day, good and evil will be rewarded in the end.
Ye Shiqi has heard a lot since she was born, stories about ghosts and gods, gods and Buddhas told by children and old people.

There is no more entertainment in this day and age where old people tell stories to children who then tell younger children.

Ye Shiqi heard stories from the mouths of her sisters, and also told stories about some people in the village from the conversations of her parents.

Ye Shiqi came to the manor this time to see Niu Dali, but she just took a look at the manor next door and thought about a lot of questions.

"Fifth sister, are you so cold?"

"It must be. None of us are as afraid of the cold as she is."

Sisters, you talked to each other and made heart-warming movements. The eldest sister hugged her and used her body to shield her from the cold wind.

The other sisters also walked together to support, and did not take off their clothes, but used their bodies to block the cold wind.

The field on the mountain side of the manor may be cooler in summer, colder than in the village in winter, and the temperature in the mountains is lower.

Ye Shiqi shook her head, but she could only rub against her big sister's arms, she still felt that it was fine and it was inconvenient to talk.

"Fifth Sister, you'd better go to the house, if you have anything to do, the sisters can help you!"

The eldest sister, Ye Luoqi, embraced the little girl in her arms. In her arms, the little girl was only over three years old and not very heavy.

She has practiced her arm strength and body strength while doing farm work since she was a child.

"Sister, I'm going to see those Niu Dali!" Ye Shiqi insisted on her idea.

Ye Luoqi had no choice but to hold her younger sister, and together with several other younger sisters, they came to Niu Dali's training place.

Ye Shiqi was held in the arms of the elder sister, and she didn't put her down. She turned her head to look at the breeding place.

Because he was afraid that the small trees of Niu Dali would dry up in winter, my uncle carefully asked the workers to cover the roots of Niu Dali's small trees with straw.

It's just... Ye Shiqi saw that Liu Dali's small tree still couldn't stand the cold, and the leaves were falling off. If she didn't deal with it well, she might not be able to wait for spring. This is just over a month. If she can't survive, It may dry out and die.

For those who have not yet thought of where to plant the saplings, and have not yet transplanted them next year, the manor here is impossible. This is the place to grow vegetables and rice, and the mountain is already full of fruit trees.

This Niu Dali can only be harvested after several years of planting. It is much more difficult to manage than those fruit trees, and the fruits and vegetables can still bear fruit for a year or two.

Ye Shiqi frowned in embarrassment, the small curved eyebrows on both sides were about to stick together.

"Fifth sister, what's the matter? Are you too cold and uncomfortable?"

The second sister, Ye Meiqi, has been looking at Ye Shiqi with concern, and didn't go to see Niu Dali like the other sisters.

The fourth sister, Ye Fengqi, even touched the poor young sapling with her hands. When he touched the young sapling, the leaves that the young sapling wanted to fall fluttered all over the ground in the wind, and the whole tree was almost bare.

"Fourth sister, why are you still doing it?"

Ye Shiqi was worried about what to do, and the fourth sister was also worried, so why did she get playful?
"Fifth Sister, didn't Dad say that there is no land to grow these medicinal materials? This is a kind that takes five years. How can our family have land? Look at your heart!"

"What do you know? Do you know the preciousness of this medicinal material? If it can be used well, medicinal food can make a person healthy. This is a good soup for calming the liver and removing dampness. It is usually put in the soup when it is boiled. Yes. The body is useful!"

"Little sister, how do you know so much?" Fourth sister Ye Fengqi looked at Ye Shiqi with adoring eyes.

Ye Shiqi couldn't take it anymore. In fact, she didn't know much about selling medicinal materials. It's a pity that this is not the Internet age. You can find the skills of certain things just by searching the Internet.

This is what she heard from the people who transported the medicine. As for the miraculous effect, it will really be planted and harvested at that time. She has to taste the efficacy of this medicine.

Soup soup, the soup that the whole family can drink, especially those who like to make soup, this medicine can have better effect when combined with some other medicines.

"Well, you're all here! It's just a matter of letting someone tell you in such a cold day, why did you come in person!" Their uncle's voice came from behind them, full of concern in his voice.

"Uncle, it's all you. You send a message. You see, my sister insists on coming, and everyone is cold."

The third sister, Ye Xinqi, rolled her eyes and said, "The sisters and uncle didn't pay attention to the elder's tone of voice at all.

I'm used to getting close, this uncle is like their big brother, easy to get along with, and the uncle is also very good, but he is a little more serious, and it is not so easy to joke with them.

"Oh, I just told my second sister to give her an idea. Why is she so relieved to let you come? It's cold, hurry up, go sit in the house, there is a charcoal stove to keep you warm !"

"Uncle, you are really slow to react. It took us so long to show up. If you had come earlier, we wouldn't have to stand here."

The second sister, Ye Meiqi, complained that she was actually afraid of chilling the youngest sister.

"That's right, it's my uncle's fault, my uncle should hit me."

Did Uncle Li explain more? He just went up the mountain to look at the breeding place. When he saw them standing here and running over in a hurry, he could feel his back sweating while running in the cold wind.

Maybe it's because of working in the mountains all year round, I have developed my foot strength and body strength, and I sweated but didn't pant.

"Come on, let me hug my little niece."

Li Xiaojiu didn't care whether the elder niece agreed or not, so he opened his hands to hug the younger niece.

This was in ancient times. Ye Luoqi was over ten years old. Although the person in front of her was an elder, it was not good to touch her body. She was about to avoid her uncle's hand when the little girl in her arms opened her hand. I can use my little sister to rush over.

Uncle Li catches the little niece steadily, with both hands will be strong, wanting to lift high for the niece, but then thinks it's cold weather, this action can't make the niece colder.

Ye Shiqi was in her uncle's arms, and could feel the smell of manly sweat. It seemed that the uncle was still sweating, and there was a little blush on his bronzed face, which seemed to be from running.

"Uncle, those young seedlings can't do it like this!" Ye Shiqi thought of the young seedlings. In fact, there might be no film in ancient times, so they couldn't build a greenhouse.

If you want to keep small saplings warm, there are actually other ways.

Just now she looked at the straw on the ground and thought of the thatched houses where many people lived.

The thatched house may not be able to keep people out of the cold in winter, but it is enough for these small saplings.

Ye Shiqi also thought of the bamboo tubes on the mountain to pass water. In fact, there is no need to build a thatched house with wood on the mountain like people do, because this thatched house is only temporary, to block the cold winter and the cold rainy season.

It can be planted in February and March tomorrow, but depending on the situation, it still needs to be warm and the flowers will bloom. The Arbor Day is also the season when the flowers bloom in spring.

In a few months, the problem of planting land may be resolved.

"Oh, what advice does my little niece have?"

Uncle Li is actually very proud of having such a young but talented niece.

It's not because of her age that he doesn't know anything about novels, and he advocates that if there are suggestions, he can make them freely. As a farmer, he doesn't know everything.

I didn't grow a manor before, and thought that the leader in farming was very good. After planting a manor, I realized that there were too many things to learn.

As the steward of the manor, he is not proud of having worked for a few years and has experience. There are too many things in the world to learn.

"Uncle, have you ever lived in a thatched house?"

Li Xiaojiu was stunned for a while when he heard what his little niece said, but he didn't understand that what she meant was still expressed as he thought in his heart.

At this time, they had already arrived at their residence, which was already the place where the workers staying here lived and entertained guests.

Uncle Li first hugged his niece and sat on the stool by the stove before saying: "Our family has never lived in a thatched house. I don't know about it for a few generations, but I really think that the thatched house was used as a place to raise pigs." Covered."

"Oh, then my uncle has experience in building thatched houses!"

Ye Shiqi showed a happy smile, her smile was like a spring breeze, the sister who brought her tea, the uncle who kept paying attention to what she said, and other sisters followed Xinyue.
