Traveling through the mountains and fields to be leisurely

Chapter 104 The Lan Family Branch
"Brother Er Zhuang, I know you are reluctant to part with our friendship since we were young, and you don't want my son to become a servant of your family, but have you ever thought about it, you are here for wages, if Changshun stays in our house , It’s just helping the family to plant the land. The second boy and I can get busy with the few acres of land at home. Changshun is also going to work for others when he is idle. I don’t know if he can find someone to do it. Even if you find someone, instead of working for someone you don’t know, it’s better to come to your home, Brother Er Zhuang. I’m more assured, no, you can’t lose him. In this way, I’m still taking advantage of it. You signed it contract, I am not worried that you will quit him. After ten years of savings, he is considered to have a family, and I am relieved. Moreover, the biggest advantage is that he is close to home. Things, I rushed back after a few steps, isn't that much better than going to the town to work, Brother Er Zhuang, don't worry, Changshun is capable, and he will definitely take care of your place neatly, watering the ground Weeding, weeding, and weeding, weeding, weeding, weeding, weeding, weeding, weeding, weeding, weeding, weeding, weeding, weeding, weeding, weeding, weeding, weeding, weeding, weeding, weeding, weeding, weeding, weeding, weeding, weeding, weeding, weeding, weeding, weeding, and pest control.

These words made Lan Erzhuang no longer able to refuse, so he had to keep Changshun. Fortunately, Changshun is really good, and he does the work in the field very easily. Thanks to Ling Xue, for the convenience of watering the land, she directly drops a few drops of clear spring water into the well water every day, and no longer bothers to add materials to the bucket. The diluted clear spring water is used in the field, and no weeds grow Insects, Changshun saves a lot of work, just watering the land every day, but watering is not such a light job, it is a full 450 mu of land, and it takes four to five days to water it all once. In addition, the ten-acre vegetable field that Lan Erzhuang left outside the greenhouse needs to be watered every day. The young man is very diligent, and these tasks are not difficult for him. The time is well allocated, and he even has time to help Lan Lingxue does some other work, such as fetching ice from the ice cellar. That piece of ice is smashed in half and carried up again. .

Now the pastry shop in the town, Lan Lingxue has been handed over to the shopkeeper Liao to take full control. The pastries are made by the two little girls who bought them. Now that there are more varieties of pastries, it is really too busy for one person. This little girl is quite capable, and they all signed the deed of selling themselves, and they will belong to the Lan family from now on. Honest girl, when the time comes, you can't do anything well with your clumsy hands. Isn't that even worse? There's nothing wrong with being clever, as long as you're sensible. Anyway, you've got a contract of sale in your hand, so let's train it slowly. As for the buyer, Lan Lingxue There is no psychological burden. After all, I have read so many time-travel novels. Buying and selling people is an obvious feature of this era. If you want to employ people, you have to buy them and hold them in your hands before you can feel at ease. Lan Lingxue thought, as long as you treat them well If they stay at home, they may not live well in their own home. If they live well at home, they will not be sold to others as maids.

The guys in the pastry shop are now my fourth uncle Lan Sizhuang and Xiao Shitou, the eldest son of Uncle Shanshui's family. Lan Sizhuang is responsible for selling and making dim sum at the counter, and Xiao Shitou is responsible for moving the dim sum from the back kitchen to the counter. , maintain the order of the customers in the store, and do some miscellaneous work. After winter, fried vegetarian meatballs will not be sold for money. Although some people are reluctant to fry them with oil, compared to buying meatballs, the cost of frying once in a while It's still lower, but the vegetarian meatballs fried at home are not as good as those fried in delicious pastry shops, so many people come to ask whether the fried meatballs are still fried in the shop, Lan Ling Because Xue was going to open a new shop, she couldn't open it for a while, so she asked the people in the shop to post a notice outside the shop, saying that the meatballs would still be fried, but it would not be until after autumn. Although some people were very disappointed, there were others. People feel that there is hope. After all, this delicious pastry shop still needs croquettes, which is better than nothing.

Lan Lingxue took Xiao Zhuzi, the clerk from the pastry shop, away, and led him to the county. Of course, Lin Qiutang followed her all the way. If it wasn't for the fact that the warmhouse at home couldn't be separated from people, Lan Erzhuang would have followed him. , although this daughter-in-law is not as good as Ji, she is still a big girl. If she really wants to let her wander outside alone with a young man, Lan Erzhuang is really worried, but at least she has a daughter-in-law with her, and the girl has a big idea If you don't agree, you have to agree. When they arrived at the county seat, a few people went to see the store that shopkeeper Meng helped to find. I have to say that Meng Fansheng was a great help in the Lan family's business. Let's just talk about this store. Without a good location or a good location, it's really hard to say whether the business is going well or not, but the restaurant managed by Shopkeeper Meng is the largest restaurant chain in Wuxia Kingdom, so there is also a branch of Fulu Restaurant in the county , shopkeeper Meng communicated with the shopkeeper in the restaurant here and asked him to help. Before Lan Lingxue said her request, the shop had already been found. As soon as Lan Lingxue saw the shop, it was ten Two points of satisfaction,
"If the girl has any other requirements, you can just mention it, don't settle for it. Doing business is not the same as renting a residence. If this store is not suitable, the girl just say something, and we will find another one."

Lan Lingxue didn't expect that the shopkeeper of Fulu Restaurant in Puling County would come over in person after receiving the letter she wanted to come, with such a polite attitude, which made Lan Lingxue a little flattered.

"This shop is very good, I am very satisfied, thank you shopkeeper Wang, you have worked hard."

The shopkeeper Wang is a bit fat, not as tall as Meng Fansheng, and his skin is quite fair. When Lan Lingxue saw it, he thought of the word "white fat fat", thinking that he should be the shopkeeper of a restaurant. What a good match for the restaurant,

"Helping the girl, what's the trouble, our boss said, but whenever the girl needs help, she must speak up, and our restaurant will definitely help. If you have any difficulties, just tell me, Wang will help you."

It turned out that the owner of the restaurant had spoken, and Lan Lingxue felt relieved now. After all, the owner of the restaurant knew about his food supply, but shopkeeper Wang didn't know. His enthusiasm just now really made Lan Lingxue feel relieved. Xue accepted the incompetence, fearing that there was some kind of trap in it, now that she knew it was the boss's order, Lan Lingxue felt at ease,
"Shopkeeper Wang, I am very satisfied with this shop, how much money do I need to buy it?"

Because the location is so good, just at the crossroads on the corner, there is a second entrance yard, the area of ​​the front pavement is twice the size of the town, and there is a big kitchen, separated by a patio, and the first entrance yard at the back is not small, There are three rooms, suitable for people to live in. On the left side of the shop is a high-end jewelry store. Lan Lingxue went in and looked at it. They are all jewelry with relatively fine workmanship and high-grade materials. On the right is a shop selling silk and satin fabrics, which also The high-end embroidery shop is exactly the environment she wants. This has added a lot of points to the shop, but because she is so satisfied, Lan Lingxue is worried that the price will be too high. She does not want to rent it this time. But I want to buy it because Little Hoe is going to the county to go to school. Although I plan to let him live in the school, he must have a place to rest every ten days. Er Yuan, who came and went back and forth, although there was a carriage, it was thrown on the road all day, it would be better for the adults to work harder, miss him, come to the county to see him, so that he can feel at ease in the county If you want to stay here, you must have your own home in the county.

"I went to ask the girl. Because of the good location, this shop was originally worth 800 taels of silver, but the owner was in a hurry to go out. It seemed that the whole family moved to Beijing, so there was no time to drag it here because of a shop. 600 taels You just want to get rid of the money, girl, do you think it's possible?"

Shopkeeper Wang said a little nervously, wondering if the little girl would be able to accept such a price, after all, 600 taels of silver is not a decimal, if it is placed in an ordinary house, two or three taels of silver can last a whole year, which is not too bad Well, my boss has sent a message to me, and I must take good care of this little girl from the Lan family. I have something to ask for in my own family. Although he doesn't know what such a little girl is capable of, it seems that the girl who followed her The two of them, since they met each other without interjecting a word, knew that the boss was not aimless.
"Really?"

Lan Lingxue asked excitedly,
"real."

I don't know why the girl from the Lan family was excited, whether she was satisfied or dissatisfied, shopkeeper Wang was a little uncertain, so he had to answer her honestly,
"Great, can I sign the formalities today? I want to get the deed over today."

Shopkeeper Wang wiped the sweat from his forehead, and let out a long breath. It seems that the ancestor is satisfied, and it is not in vain that he used the banner of the master to suppress the price of this shop.

"There's nothing wrong with that. I'll take the girl to go through the formalities."

Shopkeeper Wang felt really relieved, this girl is a good waiter, it is not difficult to answer correctly, Lan Lingxue went to go through the formalities with Shopkeeper Wang in a happy mood, originally thought it was difficult to enter the yamen, but the shopkeeper Wang only revealed With a face, without saying much, the procedures are complete,

"Shopkeeper Wang, I really troubled you today. We arrived in the county on the first day, and we still had some things to do, but we left you in the cold. When we finish our work, we will come to thank you someday."

Lan Lingxue is sincerely grateful, without the shopkeeper Wang, the shop would definitely not be able to sign today, and she still thought about staying in the inn for a few days, but who would have thought that things would go so smoothly,

"Well, it's my honor to be able to help the girl. Besides, I still have the face of my boss. It's an outsider for the girl to say that. The girl will be busy first, and I'll go back first."

Looking at Shopkeeper Wang who was so busy that his face was sweating, Lan Lingxue was really embarrassed, and she didn't finish until she saw him off outside the gate.

"Little basket, did you buy this shop?"

Lin Qiutang was still a little confused, feeling unreal,
"How much does such a big shop cost?!"

Sighing and sighing, Lan Lingxue laughed,

"Didn't you listen to what Shopkeeper Wang said, 600 taels."
