Great Song Super Scholar

Chapter 92 Green Coral

In Jiangwan Village, the new house of Fan Ning's family is under construction in full swing. The original adobe houses have disappeared, and the ground is flat and expanded, covering a full two and a half acres.

Fan Tiezhou planned to build a small house with two entrances and a front and back yard, with about a dozen rooms. This is only the upper-middle standard in the village, and it is on the same level as his father's three rows of blue brick and large tile houses.

It is far inferior to the three-entry mansion of Jiang Yuanwai's family, let alone Zhou Yuanwai's fairy mansion.

Calculated in this way, one and a half acres of land is enough for his new house, and he will keep the other one for expansion in seven or eight years when his son is about to get married.

"Erlang, let's rest today!" Seeing that it was getting late, Fan Tiezhou called out to the wall tiles of the new house.

He happened to be visiting a patient nearby today, so he stopped by his home to see the progress of the building.

A young craftsman came out with a smile and said, "Brother Fan, why do you have to empty a piece of land, add [-] yuan, and I will build a side yard for you, what do you think?"

Thirty pennies is equivalent to 3 yuan. In the countryside with low labor costs, it is indeed possible to build a side yard.

"Isn't it temporarily useless?"

Fan Tiezhou smiled, his family is not well-off now, so save as much as you can.

"Why don't you need it? When this new house is built, you must hire a few servants and maids! The servant lives in the front yard, you and your sister-in-law live in the back room, and Dumb lives in the side yard, isn't it good?"

Fan Tiezhou was also a little tempted. In fact, he had thought about it, but the wife firmly disagreed. Thinking about it, the family only had more than 100 yuan, and it took about 80 yuan to buy land and build a house.

It hurts!
"You fix the house first, and I'll discuss with your sister-in-law about the side yard later."

"Okay! Big brother Fan will go to work first, and we will call it a day when it gets dark."

Fan Tiezhou wanted to rush to Jiangdun Village to see patients, so he nodded and turned to go to the pier.

At this time, a cargo ship was slowly approaching, and someone on board shouted: "Daddy!"

Fan Tiezhou was startled when he heard that it was his son's voice, and hurried to the cargo ship, only to see that the boy on the bow was his son Fan Ning.

"Ning'er, didn't you go to the county seat to close the case? Why are you here!"

Fan Tiezhou was really ashamed. He was too busy to take time to accompany his son to the county town to settle the case, so he repeatedly asked his son to go to the second uncle first.

"I came back from the county seat, and the county magistrate compensated me with a piece of Taihu Lake stone. I will show it to Mr. Zhou."

Fanning told the boatman to wait a while, and he jumped ashore, and walked up to look at his new house.

He suddenly found that there was still a large piece of land next to him, so he asked a little puzzled: "Father, what are you doing with the large piece of land over there?"

Fan Tiezhou smiled wryly and said, "The family doesn't have much money. It will cost 85 yuan to repair that mu of land, which is far beyond our previous plan."

In the past two days, Fan Ning has been making a lot of money, and he has half a jade pendant with 3000 taels of silver on his waist alone.

It's just that he plans to use the money to open a store, and he can't help his parents for the time being. He plans to transfer the commission income from the new wine to his parents.

"Daddy, why didn't you tell me earlier that you don't have enough money? I have 3000 taels of silver!"

'3000 taels of silver! '

Fan Tiezhou was stunned, and asked in surprise for a long time: "Ning'er, where did you get so much money?"

Fan Ning smiled and said: "Father forgot, the two stones that the thief visited were bought by Mr. Zhu yesterday and gave me 3000 taels of silver. I haven't had time to tell you."

Fan Tiezhou was shocked, how many years would he have to save 3000 taels of silver, his dream is to work hard by himself, and save 500 taels of silver for his family in ten years.

But the son earned 3000 taels of silver overnight with just two stones.

He suddenly felt that his life dream was smashed to pieces by his son's two stones.

After a while, he sighed and asked, "Does your mother know?"

"Mother doesn't know yet. I went to the county town to find my second uncle today, and I plan to open a store with my second uncle. The 3000 taels of silver is the capital."

Fan Tiezhou nodded, "Don't tell your mother about this for now, wait until you find an opportunity to tell her slowly, otherwise it will scare her."

"I see, Daddy, I'm going to send stones to Master Zhou first."

"Go!"

Fan Ning returned to the cargo ship, and the cargo ship continued to move towards Zhou Lin's mansion.

Fan Tiezhou felt a little dazed in his head, he hadn't woken up from the extreme shock.

3000 taels of silver!My own son was amazing.

． ． ． ． ． ． ．

The official family of the Zhou Mansion took several servants and carefully moved the Taihu stone off the cargo ship.

Fan Ning immediately gave the boatman five hundred Wen, and the boatman thanked him and left.

"Little guy, what baby did you get?"

When Zhou Lin heard that Fan Ning had brought a piece of Taihu stone, he left his job and ran out of the gate.

Fan Ning stopped him and said solemnly: "Old man, let me tell you first, I can lend you this treasure for a few months to enjoy, but you have to return it to me, I will be the treasure of the town hall."

"Stop talking nonsense, get out of the way!"

Zhou Lin's eyes had already been hooked by the green coral, so he couldn't hear half of Fan Ning's words.

The reason why Fan Ning transported the green coral to Zhou Lin's residence was mainly to eliminate future safety concerns.

He actually "picked up" this piece of Taihu Lake stone from Li Yun's hands, but it doesn't mean that Li Yun didn't know it all the time. If he went to ask Li Quan, he would know the value of this piece of blue coral.

Li Yun can just use a "tax evasion booty" to take this stone back in a fair manner.

Therefore, Fan Ning had to use Zhou Lin's hand to filter it. Even if Li Yun found out that he was mistaken, he would not dare to act rashly.

Zhou Lin gently stroked this top-quality blue coral, feeling filled with emotion in his heart, this is the town hall stone of the Kistler Hall!
"A'Ning, how did this green coral get into your hands?"

"It's hard to say, let's carry it into the mansion first."

Zhou Lin quickly asked the housekeeper to carry the stone, "Everyone, be careful and walk slowly!"

The housekeepers and servants all have rich experience in lifting stones. They carefully lifted the green coral into the atrium and gently placed it on a piece of grass.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Fan Ning briefly explained how he obtained this piece of blue coral.

However, he omitted the fact that he used the gift of the emperor to make use of it.

Just using the Xishan Traveling Stone as an example, it leads to the secret of tax evasion in the Kistler Pavilion.

After Zhou Lin listened to Fan Ning's narration silently, he probably understood that Li Yun, the county magistrate, took advantage of the Xu family and brutally slaughtered the Xu family. It was Li Yun who ate the meat, and Fan Ning drank the soup.

He stared at Fan Ning and said, "I don't know what to say about you. The people in the officialdom are sinister, and you, a young boy, can't deal with it. I hope you don't do this kind of thing like taking chestnuts out of the fire again. I can't save you either."

Fan Ning said with a faint smile: "The old man thinks too highly of me, my Mountain Travel Stone was stolen, of course I have to report it, it's only right and proper.

As for how the county magistrate negotiated with the Xu family, and how the Xu family's tax evasion occurred, I have no idea at all. The county magistrate offered me compensation, and this piece of blue coral was his own ignorance. If he took it away, who could he blame? "

"That's because you're lucky. It just so happens that Li Yun and the Xu family don't want to see each other. If Li Yun is transferred away and an accomplice of the Xu family becomes the county magistrate, and the Xu family turns against you again, what will you do?"

Fan Ning said coldly: "If this is the case, then I have no choice but to go to Beijing to sue. I don't believe that Li Yun will throw away the evidence of Xu's tax evasion?"

Zhou Lin was stunned for a moment, this little guy actually wants to sue, does he really have something to rely on?
Fan Ning smiled, and changed the subject, "Grandpa, let's not talk about this, let's talk about the business, I will lend you this piece of blue coral for two months, and when my strange stone museum opens, I have to use it as a town hall. Put the stone of the pavilion in."

Although Zhou Lin is a stone idiot, he is not a greedy person. Fan Ning gave him the Southern Dynasty Dancer Stone, which moved him very much. He decided to do everything in his power to help Fan Ning open his shop successfully.

"When your Strange Stone Museum opens, I will invite a group of stone friends to support you. You must prepare as many top-grade Taihu stones as possible, and don't let them return home disappointed."

"Don't worry, old man! My second uncle is very capable, and he will handle this matter well."

"I hope so. I'll give him lessons from the day after tomorrow."

At this time, Fan Ning said with a smile again: "This piece of blue coral has been enjoyed by the master for two months, the master must show something!"

"You little guy, what are you thinking again?"

"Old man, can you give me your Shoushan stone the size of a water tank?"

Zhou Lin nodded, and ordered the housekeeper to move the Shoushan Stone from the warehouse.

Of course, this stone is not as simple as Shoushan Stone, but a top-quality Tianhuang steatite. The stone is spherical in shape, much like the big stone ball used to block roads in later generations.

Fan Ning has long set his sights on this top-quality field yellow steatite. I really don't know where Mr. Zhou found it?
"This Shoushan stone was actually given to me by your grandfather. I think this topaz has a very high ornamental value. Unfortunately, the literati in this dynasty did not value it. I believe this topaz will become a treasure worth thousands of gold."

Fan Ning secretly admired, as expected of a stone idiot, he could actually see that Tian Huangshi became a thousand dollars with one stone later.

"Old man, as long as we have a heart, I believe that in ten years, this topaz will definitely shine!"
