Chapter 388: Land Reclamation 2

Chapter 388: Land Reclamation 2
Looking at Shui Liuli, Zhenxing couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "That's great, I'm worrying about money! I can't help spending money in the capital. My mother and little uncle gave me so much money, and I spent almost half a year without it." In this world, money can’t help being spent. My mother and little uncle gave me so much money, and I spent almost half a year without it! This money is so carelessly spent, no wonder there are so many corrupt officials! Think If you want to do great things, and want to live a life of mastery, spending money is like running water!"

Shui Liuli: "You have to save a little bit, earning money is not easy, even if you have money, it is not easy to pass it to your hands!"

Zhenxing: "I know, I will save a little, and I won't waste a single coin. You don't have to worry, the money I spend will be returned soon, and the profit will be doubled at the end of the month. Please tell my mother, You don’t need to send me money all the time, the 2 taels of silver that Mr. Qiao gave is enough for my turnover this year! After passing this level, there will be no shortage of money in the future!”

Shui Liuli said happily: "It's so good, I don't have a lot of money at hand, here is 1000 taels of silver, let me show my heart!" Saying that, he stuffed a money bag into Zhenxing's hand.

Where is Zhenxing willing to accept it: "Take it back, I know that even Mr. Lian and Mr. Lian are incorruptible people. The 1000 taels must be all the savings of the Lian family, right?"

Shui Liuli blushed and pushed back: "To tell you the truth, your mother gave me this silver ticket, otherwise, I would have to sell the dowry to raise all 1000 taels of silver! Just accept it and don't push it any further. , take trouble to be seen!"

Zhenxing's attitude is very firm: "Don't push it, take it back! If there is no 2 taels of silver from Mr. Qiao, I might consider borrowing your 1000 taels of silver first. Now, since I have 2 taels Two, I'm not short of money, so you can take back this bank note! Don't argue, if you continue to argue, people will definitely see it!"

Shui Liuli had no choice but to take it back: "Okay, I have to go, take care of yourself! If you encounter any difficulties or are short of money, just tell me!"

Zhenxing: "I know, you have to take care of yourself! It's an extraordinary period, there's nothing serious, don't come to the East Palace to look for me, so as not to get into trouble! East Palace, there must be spies from my father now, so don't come to the East Palace in the future."

Shui Liuli looked at this young man who seemed to have grown up overnight, and couldn't help nodding with tears in her eyes: "Yes, I understand, I'm leaving now, take care of yourself! If you need help, you must speak to us, don't Carry everything by yourself!"

After Shui Liuli finished speaking, she turned around and walked towards the door, with tears in her eyes.Why are the royal children so pitiful?Back then, she and her elder brother had a father and a family, but they lived like lonely orphans.Today, Zhenxing's parents are the emperor, but his situation is no better than her and his elder brother's back then!
Royal child, why is it so hard!
Shui Liuli got into the carriage, and finally couldn't control herself, fell down in the carriage, and burst into tears.

Zhenxing, this poor child, he doesn't know how much hardship and humiliation he will have to go through from now until he ascends the throne of the emperor.I hope that in the near future, he can break through all obstacles and successfully inherit the throne.

Only if he got his wish, she and her eldest brother and sister-in-law, as well as people from the Lian family and the Rao family, as well as those who had close contacts with the Lian family and the Rao family, would have a way to survive.In order to help Zhenxing, she is also willing to give up her life of luxury and good food to contribute to his success.

Xiangdong, Yunwu, and Shangguancheng returned to Shanqian Village for a few days, and Xiangxi, Yunshan, and Shangguanheng also returned. Shangguanheng and Shangguancheng stayed in Jingyuan temporarily, and the two brothers settled in Shanqian Village.The new house was built next to Erya's house, a house with two entrances for each family.

There was no open space nearby, so the two brothers dug up the low mountain next to Erya's house to build a house.The brothers bought the hill for 500 taels of silver, and hired someone to dig the hill for about 300 taels of silver.By the time the house was built, it had already cost more than 200 taels of silver.

Shangguan Heng was a little distressed, he can be said to be a poor man now, the money to sell the house, in addition to repaying the debts, there is only about 300 taels left.This amount of money is not even enough to build a house, and it was all paid for by the eldest brother first.

As a result, when the expenses were added up, he was immediately dumbfounded.There are so many, he doesn't have so many in his pocket!I had no choice but to say in shame: "Brother, I only have 300 taels of silver, I will give you 250 taels first, and I will earn money to pay you back the rest as soon as possible!"

Shangguan Cheng gave his younger brother a white look: "We are all one family, what are you talking about? Now, in our Shangguan family, there are only two brothers left! We are not married yet, and the elder brother's money is your money. Don't worry , Big brother has been growing melons and fruits in Xiaoqinghe these years, and he has earned some money. Today, big brother will give you a bottom line, and there are more than 5 taels of silver!"

Shangguan Cheng closed the door, dragged out a large wooden box with a lock from under the bed, opened the box, and took out a small box.Opening the small box, there is a box of bank notes inside, a thick stack.

"This is 1 taels. The eldest brother gave it to you. You can use it to buy some fields. The eldest brother will also buy some fields. In the future, we brothers will live a life of plowing and hunting together!" Shangguan Cheng handed a stack to his younger brother bank note.

Shangguan Heng hurriedly pushed back: "I can't ask for it. This is the hard-earned money of the elder brother. My brother is ashamed. I will not return the money for building the house to the elder brother. However, I can't ask for the money from the elder brother anymore! Otherwise, I've become nothing!"

After hearing this, Shangguancheng felt very relieved.

The younger brother is not greedy, jealous, or jealous.This shows that the prosperity of the capital did not fascinate my brother, he is still the good brother he was many years ago!

"That's good, I'll give you 2000 taels of silver. I can't refuse any more. This is my brother's wish. Accept this money, buy a few acres of land, and then quickly find a good girl to marry! You are not young , it's time to get married!" Shangguan Cheng took out a few banknotes and stuffed them into his younger brother's pocket without any explanation.

Shangguan Heng's heart was warm, and the hot tears could not help rolling in his eyes.With such a good brother, he is content in this life!

There was no one in Shanqian Village to sell fields, so the two brothers found a piece of wasteland with decent soil quality near the academy, and each bought 20 mu for [-] taels of silver.

Li Zheng asked curiously: "Lord Shangguan, General Shangguan, what do you plan to plant after you reclaim the land?" He looked at the two expectantly, hoping not to hear "planting rice" from their mouths. "This is also the answer.

Shangguan Heng was stopped by the question and didn't know how to answer, but Shangguan Cheng calmly replied: "Grow soybeans, corn and sweet potatoes!"

Li Zheng smiled gratifiedly: "Well, these three crops are good. General Shangguan doesn't seem to be a person who doesn't discriminate between grains and grains!"

Shangguancheng: "Many years ago, I really didn't know the five grains. Later, I bought land in Xiaoqinghe and planted the land with the princess. Since then, I have a deep understanding of crops. Today, I can say that He's half a peasant!"

Hey, want to see the jokes of our brothers?You are so beautiful!

The two brothers are not in a hurry to plant [-] mu of wasteland for each person, and they reclaim it by themselves every day.When Rao Shouli saw it, he couldn't help feeling itchy, and bought ten acres of wasteland there, and then escorted Changsheng's family of three to open up wasteland.

Changsheng felt miserable, and finally protested on a rainy day: "Father, the family originally had two acres of paddy fields and two acres of dry land. Planting four acres of land is already exhausting! Another ten acres , It’s like killing me, why don’t you ask someone to reclaim it?”

Rao Shouli couldn't listen to it at all, so he beat him with a whip: "What's good? Lord Shangguan and General Shangguan are not short of money, but they all go to cultivate themselves, and they can do it themselves, why can't you? Could it be, Are you richer and better off than others?"

Changsheng didn't dare to be angry or speak out, he only dared to scold the Shangguan brothers in his heart, and he dared to whisper to his wife: "The two Shangguan brothers took the wrong medicine, since they are not short of money, why don't they ask someone to reclaim the wasteland? Do you have to do it yourself? That’s all right now, dad will use those two people to teach us a lesson, the hard times are yet to come!”

"Yeah, those two people are too hateful! Oh, hey, are you still letting people live? This day is always busy, and I am so tired that I don't even want to eat at night! I can't live through this day !"

The two were talking vigorously, when Rao Shouli's voice suddenly rang above his head: "There's no way out, so take the divorce papers and go back to your natal home!"

Changsheng's wife was startled, and quickly knelt down on the ground: "Father, my daughter-in-law made a mistake, and my daughter-in-law will never dare again! From now on, my daughter-in-law will definitely work hard and never be lazy!"

Rao Shouli snorted coldly: "If you continue to behave like this, I will drive you all out and sever ties with you! In the future, even if you want to farm, you probably won't have any land to grow! Don't think I'm scaring you. Let me tell you, I will do what I say, this is my last chance! Next time I hear you make irresponsible remarks or make some small moves, I will definitely not forgive you!"

Changsheng was also frightened, and quickly knelt on the ground: "Father, my son is wrong, and my son will never dare again! The reason why my son is like this is because he has never suffered since he was a child. I beg Daddy to give him more time. Let your son get used to it slowly!"

Rao Shouli snorted coldly: "Don't always say that you have never experienced hardship since you were a child. I remember that when the brothers and sisters were very young, they were busy all day long. After finishing the work at home, they have to work on the field. What kind of hard work is it?" Haven’t you ever done any work? How old are you, are you not as good as a child of how old?! Don’t make any excuses, any excuses are just excuses, not convincing reasons!”

Changsheng and his wife were speechless, under the fierce gaze of the old father, they had no choice but to obediently take out their heads, took Liangbaike, and went to reclaim the wasteland.

Seeing this, Rong Fu quickly picked up his special medium-sized hoe and chased after his parents.

"You kid, you're still smart!" Rao Shouli yelled, watching his grandson's back.

It's not that he is cruel, he doesn't even let off eleven or twelve year olds, it's that this honor is just like his parents, lazy and greedy.Not only that, but his personality is very arrogant and domineering. If he doesn't take advantage of his young age to grind it out and suppress him, he won't know what catastrophe he will cause when he grows up!

Ronghua went to the village-run school, and when he returned home after school in the afternoon, he had to bring his younger sister Pearl to do housework.All in all, Rao Shouli adopted relatively strict control over the Changsheng family, resolutely not allowing anyone a chance to be lazy.

Every time Rao Lao San next door saw Rao Shouli, he couldn't help but make a few sarcastic remarks, and he would say whatever he said to poke people's hearts.After repeating this several times, Rao Shouli was finally pissed off!

On this day, in a fit of anger, he called the patriarch, several elders, and Li Zheng, asked them to be the masters and witnesses, and severed ties with Rao's family.

After Rao Lao San learned about it, he couldn't help being shocked, and shouted to his wife: "How can this be done? This is not possible! If this is the case, how will my family survive in the future?"

After breaking off the relationship, how could he have the opportunity to take advantage of the second child's family?Among other things, most of the vegetables eaten at home every day are picked from the vegetable field of the second family.After breaking off the relationship, the second child's family must not want to pick it up for his family, right?
