Chapter 259
"What you said, I'm not in a hurry, it won't be too late to buy after the crops in your field are harvested.

After all, my family's budget is at most five taels of silver per mu of land, so eight taels is already beyond my budget. "

The five taels of silver given by Lai Yongyi is actually a bit low, but if it is after the autumn harvest, this price is relatively common.

But this price was still somewhat different from what Gou Sanshu had in mind, so he hesitated.

Lai Yongyi saw his hesitation and didn't force it.

"I still have something to do. It is impossible for my price to increase. If you think it is appropriate, you can come to the ice drink shop to find me." Lai Yongyi said and was about to leave.

Uncle Gou looked at Lai Yongyi's leaving back, struggling in his heart.

He wanted to gamble, and although he said that the old woman would give it to him as long as he asked, the amount he gave was getting less and less, and recently he didn't even give him a tael of silver.

Dozens of copper plates can't even afford to buy a handful of them.

It is also because of this reason that he has pressed a lot of land deeds in the casino. Unfortunately, in the process of winning or losing, he has already lost his eyes, so he needs more money to come back.

Right now, this is an opportunity. The owner of the ice drink shop just designated Goujiacun's land, and he still has a lot of land in his hand. He can sell some of it first, so that he can make a comeback.

It's just that the price was too low, which made him feel a little heartbroken, so he was really conflicted.

When Lai Yongyi answered the ice drink shop, he immediately wrote a letter to Gou Qi. It happened that Yuzhu came to make ice today, so he asked Yuzhu to take the letter back.

Gou Qi curled her lips when she saw the letter, and she was actually a little shocked when she heard the price of five taels of silver per mu of land.

Of course, I was not shocked by the high price, but felt that the price was low.

She is used to using the price of cattle to measure other things, but she always forgets that cattle are a luxury in this era, so she thinks that the price of one acre of land and one cattle is very cheap.

Therefore, she can actually accept the price of eight taels per mu that Uncle Gou said, and she thinks that she can let Lai Yongyi accept as much as Uncle Gou wants to sell.

The money the ice drink shop makes now should be able to pay for the land, if not enough, she can just take it here.

Of course, Gou Qi still hopes that the price can be cheaper, and it would be better to follow Lai Yongyi's five taels per mu, so that she might be able to eat all the land in Uncle Gou's hands.

Of course, this is just thinking about it. I believe that Uncle Gou will not sell all the land so eagerly.

But she underestimated Gou Sanshu's need for money, Lai Yongyi had just received Gou Qi's reply, and Gou Sanshu was wandering around the door of the ice drink shop.

In the early morning, although the store will be open, no one will eat ice this morning, so there are no customers in the store at this time.

The waiters in the store just sit together in the store and chat while preparing juice and diced fruit.

"Why is that man at the door hanging around our door all the time? Is he so hot this morning that he wants to eat ice?" A waiter saw Uncle Gou, so he chatted with other people curiously.

"I guess I was waiting for someone. I came in because I wanted to eat some ice. I guess there was no one in front of our shop, so it would be more conspicuous to wait here."

The other mistresses didn't think that Uncle Gou came to eat ice, but just thought he happened to be standing here.

Only Lai Yongyi smiled when he saw that the person outside the door was Uncle Gou.

He still has Gou Qi's letter in his hand, which said that Uncle Gou might not be so eager, but the reality is not what Gou Qi thought.

After collecting the letter and locking it in the cabinet, he went out to meet Uncle Gou.
