Immortality: Raise an ant queen and add some immortality

Chapter 147: People come to congratulate each other
In the past, he was just a nobody, and even if he wanted to see Yan Ruhai, he couldn't.

And he is not the kind of person who likes to cling to the powerful and beg for mercy.

Now that the Yan family has taken the initiative to show their goodwill and send congratulatory gifts, it would be unreasonable for him not to take the initiative to visit.It will appear very patronizing, arrogant, and difficult to deal with.

It's like an elder comes to your home as a guest and the younger one sits still. This is quite rude.

Welcoming the eldest young master of the Yan family and others into the house, the guests and hosts sat down to drink tea.

The young man is not very young, but he is very sensible and serves tea to the guests.

Although the cups and plates were washed clean, the eldest son of the Yan family still frowned slightly when he was serving tea.

The tea cups are old and of poor quality.

Not to mention exquisite and high-end, even the glaze is not smooth and clean.Because ordinary poor people use this kind of unglazed pottery cup.

The price is relatively cheap.

As a poor person, you can't be too particular. It would be nice to have a cup.

Even poorer families drink water directly from ladles or bamboo tubes.

Qin Niu had just started to make his fortune, and he still lacked accumulation and accumulation, and was far from being able to compare with other wealthy families.

It would be great to be able to build this house.

As for furniture and teacups, we can only add them slowly and replace them with high-end ones.

In fact, he himself doesn't care about material enjoyment.

Of course, I would like to live a better life.

No one wants to have a good time.

The eldest son of the Yan family probably held his nose and took a few sips of tea.Both the cup and the tea leaves were so different from what he usually enjoyed.

Not drinking is rude.

It would make Qin Niu feel that he was disgusted.

After taking a few sips, the eldest son of the Yan family put the tea cup back on the table.

First, they exchanged a few words with Qin Niu.

Then get to the point.

"Master Qin Niu, locusts have been ravaging the earth recently. I heard that you are quite capable of eradicating locusts. I wonder if you have time to help our Yan family fight the locust plague? The remuneration can be discussed."

The eldest son of the Yan family seemed to know that Qin Niu would not be easily moved, so he did not dare to make an offer easily.

"In the current disaster, we humans can only fight against pests if we unite together. I feel for the losses that the Yan family is suffering. I am very happy to help the Yan family protect the crops in the fields from being harmed. It's just that my method of pest control is quite special. The ability is also very limited. It is necessary to stop the locusts from migrating first and then eliminate them to achieve a good pest control effect.

Otherwise, if we just clean up today, another batch of locusts will come tomorrow, and there will be no end. "

Qin Niu’s fee is not low, [-] cents/mu.

Insect removal is done once a day, unless the Yan family's land is growing crops that can produce gold.Otherwise, the Yan family would simply not be able to afford such a huge expense.

"Master Qin is absolutely right. Our Qin family has hired two insect masters from the city to help fight against the insect plague. They have tried to block the locust migration routes. Not to mention completely stopping the entry of new locusts, at least nine Locusts that are more than 400 years old have been kept out. Right now, the most important things for my Yan family are tea gardens, mulberry fields, cotton and sesame fields, and more than [-] acres of corn and wheat, which are also at a critical stage of harvest.

From what I understand, Master Qin is very comprehensive in removing pests.

All pests, eggs and pupae can be removed at one time.

If Master Qin has time, I would like to ask you to help our Yan family clear the locusts from the ground.Now, facing this kind of locust plague that is rare in a century, we can only save one acre. "

The Yan family has many fields and grows many types of crops.

In addition to food, many cash crops are also grown.

Needless to say, tea leaves are incredibly profitable.

Mulberry leaves are mainly used to raise silkworms and make silk.

The brocade clothes and silks worn by the powerful were all woven from silk.

Damask, Luo, and satin are all fine fabrics and expensive.

Qin Niu's Insect Master robe is made of silk and satin, but it is the worse type of satin.The truly top-quality fabrics are enjoyed by the top brass of the Black Tiger Gang and even higher-ranking dignitaries.

"I need to go into town to do some errands today. I'll go over there tomorrow to help your house get rid of pests. Is that okay?"

"Haha, it's absolutely possible. When I came here, I was worried that Master Qin was too busy and wouldn't go! Now, I've invited Master Qin. When I go back, it's like my father is on a mission. Since Master Qin is going to the city, I don't have much time to go. Sorry to bother you, please say goodbye. I will ask the seventh housekeeper to pick you up tomorrow."

The eldest son of the Yan family achieved his goal and stood up to leave.

Qin Niu stood up to see him off.

Farewell guests are usually sent to the door of the living room at most, but for the eldest son of the Yan family, they are sent all the way to the camp gate.

Given his status, he naturally deserves this treatment.

The eldest son of the Yan family had just been sent away. Looking at the many high-end furniture sent by the Yan family, Qin Niu knew very well that accepting these gifts was equivalent to having a relationship with the Yan family.

So many pieces of mahogany furniture, worth at least six or seventy taels of silver, are worth the value of his house.

The Yan family is really generous.

If you simply wanted to ask Qin Niu to help eliminate insects, there was no need to give such a generous gift.

The Yan family is far-sighted and is a local overlord with a deep foundation. The family business has lasted for more than a hundred years.It must have deep meaning to give such a big gift.

Qin Niu couldn't figure it out for a while.

It doesn't matter, you'll figure it out later.

"Master Qin, congratulations!"

At this time, Mr. Wang also came with people to deliver gifts.

Looking at the mahogany furniture given by the Yan family, Rich Wang was not only greedy but also full of shock.

This Qin Niu is much more powerful than he imagined!
Even though Xu Zhenchang has an extremely close relationship with the Yan family, when Xu Zhenchang's new house was completed, the Yan family only sent a dedicated housekeeper to congratulate him.The gift was a mahogany bed.

It is said that Xu Zhenchang kept it in the master bedroom like a treasure and used it as a wedding bed.

Show off to everyone.

Look at the furniture now given to Qin Niu. Not only are they made of mahogany, but they are also made of whole wood.

Redwood is extremely difficult to grow.

The material used is whole wood, which means that each piece of redwood is at least a hundred years old.And the workmanship, even though it is covered with brown bark, it still cannot stop the strong and ingenious mortise and tenon workmanship, as well as the exquisite carving.With Wang Furen's eyesight, he could tell at a glance that the quality of the wedding bed was much higher than that of Xu Zhenchang's.

The Yan family really spent a lot of money this time.

The fact that it is willing to spend such a large amount of money is enough to prove that Qin Niu has this value.

Otherwise, the Yan family would never have put in so much effort.

The creation of these furniture cannot be completed in a day or two, and must be booked in advance.

This shows that the Yan family probably started customizing these mahogany furniture when Qin Niu first built the foundation of the house.

In order to win over Qin Niu, the Yan family had really good intentions!

"This is a rosewood mother-of-pearl screen and several brocade quilts that I asked someone to make. It's a small thought but not a sign of respect. I hope Master Qin will accept it!"

Rich Wang was also quite generous with his money.

It is impossible for him to give away a set of furniture worth six or seventy taels of silver like the Yan family did.

The screen is an indispensable elegant thing in the living room.

It involves the owner's privacy protection and has Feng Shui implications.

The modern entrance hall is actually extended from the screen.

Furniture such as chairs, beds, and tables are pursued to be strong and durable, and heavy and beautiful mahogany is the material of choice.

Screens often need to be moved.

The pursuit is not heaviness, but delicacy, elegance and beauty.

Blind dates are very interesting for many young ladies in the world. They will not come out to meet men directly.Instead, he hid behind the screen and peeked at the man on the blind date.

This is also in line with the shy beauty of women.

"Uncle Wang spent a lot of money! Please come in for tea!"

Qin Niu also accepted the congratulatory gift.

These items were specially customized for him and a lot of thought was put into them. If he refused, they would definitely be inappropriate.

Humanity means you come and I go.

In the future, if any happy events happen to the Yan family or the Wang Fu family, Qin Niu will naturally send generous gifts to congratulate them.

"Brother Wang, my old brother, you are one step ahead of me in everything! The last time I bought ducks, I regretted not buying them with you. I missed a good opportunity to make money. It's you and Mr. Qin who have the foresight."

Xu Zhenchang also came with people and gifts.

"Master Qin, I congratulate you on the completion of your new house and wish you all the best. These are the sets of tableware and two sets of tea sets I asked people to make. Please don't dislike it, Master Qin!"

Gift giving is a technical job.

Otherwise, the money spent will not be appreciated by the host family.

People like Xu Zhenchang and Wang Furen are all excellent people.I know what Qin Niu lacks most.

Because they have also become rich step by step from poor people.

Good quilts, good tableware, and tea sets are all what Qin Niu lacks.

As for those high-end mahogany furniture, a wealthy family like theirs really couldn't afford to give it away.

"Thank you, thank you! It cost the village chief a lot of money! Please come inside and have tea!"

Qin Niu welcomed the two of them into the house.

Xu Zhenchang felt very sad when he looked at the mahogany furniture given by the Yan family.

It's not enough for Guan to have a good relationship with the Yan family, he must have the strength himself.

Otherwise it’s useless to know anyone.

Look at Mr. Qin, he has never had much dealings with the Yan family, but the heaviness of the congratulatory gifts sent by the Yan family is really shocking.

The two of them were being entertained here, and someone outside sent congratulatory gifts.

Tang Caixian came with her brother Tang Bin.

She was dressed very brightly and attractively today.

"Master Qin, congratulations on your great move. These are some pots of flowers and plants that my sister carefully raised, as well as two calligraphy and paintings. Please accept them!"

"Thank you! Caixian, for asking you to take the trouble!"

After Qin Niu thanked Tang Bin, he looked at Tang Caixian and thanked her with a smile.

"I'm always worried that you won't like it. I have to pick and choose, but I don't even know what to choose!"

Tang Caixian responded as she lightly brushed the blue hair on her forehead to reveal her smooth and bright forehead.

"As long as you choose it, I like it!"

After Qin Niu finished speaking, he felt a little abrupt again.

Unexpectedly, Tang Caixian smiled happily and shyly after hearing this.

"Haha, you can say some nice and coaxing words! I specially asked a master in the city to draw this picture of seeking enlightenment. This picture of a bright hall and eternal spring means that you will be as bright and bright as spring in the future, with a bright future. , flowers bloom all the way.”

She put a lot of thought into the two calligraphy and paintings she picked.

The picture of seeking enlightenment shows an elder sitting under a pine tree on a cliff, accompanied by a waterfall, and there are white cranes dancing hidden in the valley, which is full of fairyland artistic conception.

"Your eloquence is so good! A knowledgeable girl speaks differently, and she can make people faint with just two sentences!" Qin Niu's words made both brother and sister laugh. "Please sit inside and drink tea."

Just as the Tang brothers and sisters entered the door, someone else arrived outside.

But it was Brother Tang Fang.

In addition, there was a carriage slowly approaching behind him.

After stopping outside the door, a person stepped out of the carriage. He was only 28 years old, extremely young.Wearing official uniform, with a red patch embroidered on the chest, black gauze on his head, and black soap shoes.

This is amazing, this is a real official.

At least he was much more senior than Master Liu and Wang Yue that Qin Niu had seen.
