The Pretty Eldest Daughter of a Scholar's Family

Chapter 832 Selection and Addressing of the New Winery
Although he hasn't seen Lu Da and Xiao Xu yet, Su Yunduo already feels from the news revealed by Yang Aoqun that the days ahead will not be peaceful.

Xiao Xu thinks that it is not impossible for a mother to rely on a child, but she wants to rely on the income from the child Xiao Xiangkangyun Ranch in her womb, but Su Yunduo is absolutely impossible to agree. Xiao Xu woke up.

Although they had just arrived in Yongcheng, Lu Jinkang and the others had been busy until the time of Haikou before returning to the Marshal's Mansion.

Su Yunduo rested for a while in the afternoon, so he is energetic at the moment. He was talking with Ziyue's master and servant who were also waiting for the spring breeze to come back. welcome out.

"Why haven't you slept yet?" Lu Jinkang frowned slightly with his thick eyebrows, and stretched out his hand to hold Su Yunduo's hand.

Although there is Ziyue by his side, and Lu Jinkang is also surrounded by spring breeze, Su Yunduo has become accustomed to Lu Jinkang pulling his hand like this, and even shook Lu Jinkang's hand back, and gently hooked Lu Jinkang's palm with his fingers , seeing Lu Jinkang's pale face, he immediately felt relieved: "I'll rest for a while in the afternoon, I'm not sleepy now."

As he said that, he let Lu Jinkang drag him back to the house, but before turning back and entering the house, Su Yunduo still did not forget to signal Ziyue to go down with the spring breeze to settle down.

Apart from frowning slightly when he saw Su Yunduo, there was nothing unusual about Lu Jinkang.

Su Yunduo smelled alcohol on him. It was obvious that Lu Jinkang had drunk today. He ordered Baitao and others to go to the kitchen to pass on the bath water, and brought the hangover soup and supper that he had prepared long ago. He went to his outer shirt, took the wet handkerchief from Bai Kui and wiped off the sweat on Lu Jinkang's face first.

Now is the hottest time of the year, even in the north, the heat is still unbearable.

After Lu Jinkang used the hangover soup and went to the bathroom to wash off his sweat, Xiaofengyuan gradually became quiet.

Su Yunduo asked Bai Kui to take the attendants down to rest separately, and they all worked very hard along the way.

Lu Jinkang came out of the bathroom wiping his hair, only to find that there were two large ice basins in the room. No wonder he felt much cooler when he came in from the outside.

Su Yunduo, who was sitting on the couch looking at the booklet, quickly put down the booklet in his hand, stood up and took the handkerchief in Lu Jinkang's hand to wipe his wet hair. Seeing Lu Jinkang's gaze on the ice basin in the corner, he knew Some doubts.

When they came out of the capital, although they brought a lot of saltpeter, they had almost used it this way.

The ice basin in this room was prepared by Yang Aoqun for them a long time ago, and the ice cubes are naturally available in the Marshal's Mansion.

According to Yang Aoqun's introduction, there is a large ice cellar in the Marshal's Mansion in Yongcheng, and many ice cubes are prepared every winter for use in the next summer.

This year, most of the people in the Marshal's Mansion have gone to Boni City, and almost half of the ice in the ice cellar has been used up. According to Yang Aoqun's words, when should they stay longer?

Having nothing to say all night, Lu Jinkang left the Marshal's Mansion in a hurry after having breakfast the next day with Chunfeng and others, obviously there was still something to be done in Yongcheng.

Before going out, I told Su Yunduo about the approximate time to go to Boni City. It is estimated that it will be two days later, so I asked Su Yunduo to just visit Yongcheng for these two days.

Although the night in Yongcheng is much cooler than that in Beijing, as the sun rises, the heat is equally strong. Although Su Yunduo planned to take a look around Yongcheng, but seeing the sun gradually rising outside, he suddenly faded out and went out interest in shopping.

On the contrary, Ning Hua was very interested, and he greeted Su Yunduo and took the servant to go out for a stroll.

Su Yunduo hurriedly sent two other servants to accompany her on the trip. Although she heard from Yang Aoqun that the current security situation in Yongcheng was not bad, she was worried that Ning Hua could go out with only one servant.

After sending Ning Hua away, Shenggui, Zhang Ping'an and others came to find them. They also wanted to go out today to have a look, but their trip was not for fun, but to go out of the city to see the land.

Shenggui, Zhang Pingan and others followed Su Yunduo to the Northland this time, buying land and building a granary and winery was the top priority of their trip.

They have inspected many places along the way, and naturally there are some places they like, but they are not the most favorite in their minds.

They wanted to find a place that was good for growing food and not far from the northern and northwest Xinjiang to build granaries and wineries.

When they passed Yanshan Mansion, they came across a Zhuangzi who was for sale. This Zhuangzi took up about seven or eight square meters of land. A good orchard, and there is an uncultivated wasteland beside the village, which can be used to build granaries and wineries.

Since this Zhuangzi looked good, it was the only one they had their eyes on all the way, and it was not too far from Yanshan Mansion to the northern and northwest borders, which was quite in line with Su Yunduo's conditions for building a winery, Shenggui immediately decided to sell this Zhuangzi After buying it, Su Yunduo has another Zhuangzi in Yanshan Mansion under his name.

It's just that when Shenggui learned from Lu Jinkang that the journey from Yongcheng to northwest Xinjiang is almost the same as from Yanshan Mansion to northwest Xinjiang, and there is almost no difference between the official roads on both sides, he suddenly felt that the Zhuangzi in Yanshan Mansion Not the best choice.

As soon as they arrived in Yongcheng yesterday, there was no time to rest, so a few people rode their horses around the outskirts of Yongcheng.

After all, Yongcheng used to be the northern frontier city of Dongling Kingdom. After decades of war, even if it was no longer the most marginal frontier city a year ago, there is still a large area of ​​unowned wasteland outside. It is still better, and no one has cultivated the northern suburbs so far.

The reason is very simple. Although the border line has been moved to Boni City, they are still worried that the belligerent Beichen Kingdom will start a war again, and then the money will be lost. Of course, the more important point is that the land can be said to be soaked. Blood, no one is sure whether it will be profitable if it is cultivated.

Shenggui himself would not consider the land in the northern suburbs, he was looking at a piece of wasteland in the western suburbs, and now he brought Zhang Pingan and others to look for Su Yunduo, just to ask Su Yunduo to go with them to have a look.

If they agree, they will buy a piece of good luck wasteland and build the new winery in the western suburbs of Yongcheng.

Su Yunduo, who didn't intend to go out originally, faced the fierce gazes of Shenggui and Zhang Ping'an, so he had to pack up his lazy thoughts and go out with "three purples and one white" to look around.

Su Yunduo was about to get in the car, but saw Yang Aoqun rushing over with two maids.

"Is something wrong with the second sibling?" Su Yunduo looked at Yang Aoqun in surprise.

"My sister-in-law is going shopping, how can I be a tour guide without me?" It turned out that Yang Aoqun thought Su Yunduo was going shopping.

Su Yunduo resisted the urge to caress her forehead, if it wasn't for something serious in this scorching hot day, going out shopping would really be asking for trouble!

However, everyone from Yang Aoqun came, so it didn't hurt her good intentions. Besides, Yang Aoqun was born and raised in Yongcheng, so he knows Yongcheng better than them, so it's better to bring her along.

Of course, it is better to explain the purpose of going out to Yang Aoqun in advance, so Su Yunduo said with a faint smile: "I am not going out today to go shopping, but to go to the western suburbs to see a piece of land."

Yang Aoqun's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Sister-in-law is planning to buy land in Yongcheng?"

Apparently Yang Aoqun is very interested in this, if that's the case, then we have to go together.

Since Yang Aoqun was going to go with him, there was no need to bring so many maids, so Su Yunduo asked the two sisters, Zi Tiao and Zi Lian, to go around Yongcheng by themselves, and only bring Zi Yue and Bai Kui with them.

The two sisters-in-law got into Su Yunduo's carriage hand in hand, and Ziyue was waiting on the carriage. There was an ice bowl of tea in the car, so the two sisters-in-law could talk and drink tea freely.

After going out from the west gate, the carriage stopped for about a quarter of an hour. Shenggui specially parked the carriage under a big locust tree, which was quite shady.

"Sister-in-law is looking at this piece of land?" Yang Aoqun got out of the carriage and glanced around, his brows furrowed.

"What's wrong?" Su Yunduo, who had just got off the carriage, only had time to glance at the [-]-pitch wasteland, seeing that Yang Aoqun's expression was obviously a little bit wrong, and hurriedly asked.

Yang Aoqun didn't answer Su Yunduo first, but shook his head and looked around again, and went to the side to have a whisper conversation with the two maids who traveled with her today, it was obvious that she was asking the two maids for proof .

Yang Aoqun's master and servant didn't talk for a long time, but after a while, he came over and said to Su Yunduo: "I think sister-in-law should look at other lands. There are many lands around Yongcheng, so I think this land should be ignored."

Su Yunduo couldn't help frowning when she heard this, it's not that she didn't believe in Yang Aoqun, but she believed in Shenggui's vision even more.

This piece of land must be valuable for being promoted. Su Yunduo looked at Shenggui who was pointing Jiangshan with Zhang Pingan not far away, and felt that it was better to find out the reason for Yang Aoqun's objection, so Su Yunduo Yun Duo heard Yang Aoqun tell the story about this wasteland.

It turns out that this piece of wasteland was a well-earned Zhuangzi six years ago, but a thunderstorm six years ago not only destroyed all the buildings in this Zhuangzi, but even almost destroyed all the grains that were about to be harvested in the field. The most incredible thing is that, The mansion of the former richest man in Yongcheng, the owner of this land, was also struck by lightning on this day, destroying everything from the master down to the servants.

The matter was jointly investigated by the prefect of Yongcheng and the Marshal's Mansion. As a result of the investigation, no matter it was Zhuangzi or the house, there were only traces of lightning strikes everywhere, and no trace of man-made traces could be found. In the end, the government could only close the case with the penalty of thunder from the sky.

Because the owner of this piece of land was wiped out cheaply, this piece of land was taken back by the government and resold to the outside world. Because this piece of land is really fertile, there are many people who took over, but no matter who takes over from now on, he or his family members Well, there will always be accidents of one kind or another.

After changing owners several times within a year, they couldn’t end well. Four years ago, as the last landlord’s carriage overturned the cliff while the family was out, this land became a taboo land in Yongcheng all night, and became an ownerless wasteland.

When Yang Aoqun told Su Yunduo the story of this land, Shenggui, Zhang Pingan and others also heard the general idea, and couldn't help muttering in their hearts.

"Otherwise, let's look at other places." Shenggui suddenly retreated in his heart. No matter how much he likes this land, he can't risk the safety of his masters.

In his previous life, Su Yunduo would never have believed such nonsense, but since he traveled here, his mentality has changed a bit.Even if he still doesn't really believe in ghosts, he won't bet on the safety of his family members. He stared at the land silently for a while, and finally said to Shengguilu with a regretful expression: "Then it will be troublesome." Uncle Gui looked around more."

This day, Su Yunduo came here in high spirits and returned home in disappointment. When Lu Jinkang returned home in the evening, seeing Su Yunduo's expression was a little gloomy, he couldn't help but look at Su Yunduo more and asked: "But if you encounter any difficult problems, Why don't you talk and listen, maybe my husband can solve your troubles for you."

Su Yunduo glanced at Lu Jinkang, pursed his lips and smiled lightly, but did not hide it from Lu Jinkang, and slowly told what happened with his party in the western suburbs today and the anecdote about the land that Yang Aoqun mentioned.

Unexpectedly, without waiting for her to finish all the things, Lu Jinkang only heard a chuckle and said: "Young lady, you mean the wasteland after leaving the west gate for a quarter of an hour? What the second younger siblings told you is just rumors spread by the world, my lady, please listen." My husband will explain it to you."

Su Yunduo did not expect that Lu Jinkang gave her a completely different story about the reason why the land became a wasteland.

The beginning was the same. On that thunderstorm night six years ago, Yongcheng was struck by lightning and thunder, hundreds of people from the richest man in Yongcheng were killed by lightning, and Zhuangzi in the western suburbs was also destroyed. Said something completely different.

What Yang Aoqun said was just a living story popular in the market, but the culprit who wiped out the richest man in Yongcheng six years ago was not Tianlei, but man-made, vendetta killing.

The so-called richest man in Yongcheng and a group of servants under him, used to be a gangster who killed people without batting an eye. On that thunderstorm night, the entire family was wiped out.

The "murderer" who had avenged his revenge surrendered to the government, but at the time when the incident happened, Yongcheng was facing the challenge of Beichen Kingdom. The urgent report finally set the tone for the court.

After the war ended, the imperial court funded the reconstruction of the large courtyard into several courtyards, which were rewarded to the generals who had meritorious service in the army, so no new accidents would happen.

Lu Jinkang just told Su Yunduo that the reason why the Zhuangzi in the western suburbs had such and such accidents was that the people who later bought the Zhuangzi in the western suburbs had somewhat unclean hands.

It seems that in order to cover up the fact that the richest man had wiped out his family back then, he would rather leave the land unused, and the government would do something about it.

In the end, Lu Jinkang said that if Su Yunduo was really interested in that piece of land, let her just buy it, and then find some monks and priests to go there to do magic tricks and then everything will be resolved.

Su Yunduo thought about it for a long time, and finally accepted Lu Jinkang's suggestion. After all, there is really only that piece of land in the Yongcheng area that Shenggui can fancy.

Decided to buy this piece of land in the western suburbs and order to build a new winery, and then buy the land to do things and then to follow-up reclamation and construction of the winery. Naturally, Su Yunduo doesn't need to worry about it. Shenggui, Zhang Pingan and others will manage it. The next thing Su Yunduo will be busy with is Kang Yun Ranch.

There is still an exhausting battle waiting for her in Boni City!
