The Brave Life of a Space Peasant Girl
Chapter 96: Fucheng bought Zhuangzi
Chapter 96 Fucheng buys Zhuangzi
Yu Wan asked: "What kind of Zhuangzi does shopkeeper Liu have in his hands?"
“Pfft”, shopkeeper Liu spit out the tea in his mouth.
“What, what, just now she said Zhuangzi, not Zhaizi?” Shopkeeper Liu shouted in his heart.
He never thought that this little girl wanted Zhuangzi.
Yu Wan and Shopkeeper Wu looked at Shopkeeper Liu strangely, and she asked Zhuangzi, what’s the problem?
Yu Wan: "Shopkeeper Liu, you..."
Shopkeeper Liu immediately wiped the water from his mouth. Fortunately, he tilted his head and all the water squirted onto the ground.
He waved his hand quickly: "No, it's okay. I was drunk just now. There are Zhuangzi, large and small, near and far, but they don't rely on water sources."
It is unrealistic to sell houses with water sources at this time. Yu Wan had no hope. She asked: "Are there any houses close to mountains? It doesn't matter how big or small."
Shopkeeper Liu thought about it and said: "Yes, yes, there is a big village ten miles south of the city, covering an area of 5,000 acres. It is backed by the middle of Daqing Mountain, but it is a pity that there is no water source."
"Then there is Shangyang Village, twenty miles away from the south of the city. The rich man in the village has a village with an area of about 2,000 acres. There are more villages in the west of the city, ranging from 10,000 acres to a few hundred acres. To the north of the city Less so than the east of the city, which is basically a village..."
After Yu Wan listened to Shopkeeper Liu’s introduction, she thought that the Zhuangzi in the south of the city was the most suitable for her.
The 10,000-acre village in the west of the city was big enough, and she liked it.
“Shopkeeper Liu, it’s still early today, why don’t we go and take a look first? You haven’t mentioned the prices of these Zhuangzis yet.”
Shopkeeper Liu was happy to see that Yu Wan wanted to see Zhuangzi. He said: "The prices of these Zhuangzi are between five taels and six taels. You can see Zhuangzi now."
“Is it so cheap?” Yu Wan thought, she thought Zhuangzi in Fucheng must be expensive.
Shopkeeper Liu seemed to understand Yu Wan's thoughts. He said: "Zhuangzi in Fucheng is dozens of miles away from the water source. It depends entirely on the weather for food, and the wells dug have long since dried up."
In fact, shopkeeper Liu was a little reluctant to part with these villages. After the severe drought, any of these villages would be sold for ten taels of silver an acre, and they would be rushing to get them.
It’s just that no one knows how long this drought will last. It’s better for someone to buy or sell. It’s all money.
“Oh”, Yu Wan understood.
Shopkeeper Liu called the boy, "You watch in the shop, I will take Miss Yu to see Zhuangzi."
The boy nodded, and the four of them got on the carriage and drove out of the city.
Shopkeeper Liu followed Yu Wan's instructions and looked at Zhuangzi in the south of the city and Zhuangzi in the west of the city.
When we returned to Yaxing, the end of the day was almost over, and everyone was so hungry that their chests pressed against their backs.
Fortunately, the other four people who brought it came back packed, and the four of them ate it.
After eating, the three of them sat down, Zong Zheng still standing behind Yu Wan.
“Miss Yu, which Zhuangzi do you like?” Shopkeeper Liu asked. He saw that Yu Wan specifically looked around the Zhuangzi in the south of the city, so she probably liked that one.
What Yu Wan is thinking about is if she buys all the Zhuangzi she has seen. Basically every village has fields and land. Transplanting rice is a big project. The fields are dry and cracked, so the fields need to be soaked first. The ground is easy to grow, just dig it out and you can plant.
Yu Wan thought about it. After the drought, Zhuangzi wouldn’t be able to buy it at this price. If the project volume is large, people will be hired, so she decided to buy all these villages first, after all, they can all grow rice.
“Shopkeeper Liu, let’s buy the big farm with 5,000 acres in the south of the city, the 10,000 acres in the west of the city, and the 3,000 acres next door.”
When Shopkeeper Liu heard this, he was still shocked by Yu Wan's generosity.
"Okay, okay, then I will go and handle it now. There are 18,000 acres in total. The three villages you picked are all six taels of silver per acre, totaling one hundred and eight thousand taels of silver. Miss Yu doesn't want to buy a house? What else is there? A big Zhuangzi will definitely need people who are good at Zhuangzi. I have them all here, but I can make the decision and send a hundred people to Miss Yu."
Yu Wan nodded and said: "Then it's a good idea. I definitely want people. Pick two hundred people for me first, and pick three farm heads. Ten people who can wash, cook, and sew and mend. As for the house, if If you find something suitable, you can buy one.”
Shopkeeper Liu was very happy. He really underestimated Yu Wan.
He stood up, took out his notepad, flipped through it for a while, and said: "There are five-yard, four-yard and three-yard buildings in the east of the city. They were recently sold. They were originally occupied by officials."
"how's the price?"
Shopkeeper Liu said: "The fifth entry is five thousand taels, the fourth entry is four thousand taels, and the third entry is three thousand taels."
“Haha, shopkeeper Liu, your price is quite reasonable.”
Shopkeeper Liu laughed a few times. He also thought the pricing was funny at that time.
“Haha, would you like to have a look, Miss Yu?”
Yu Wan shook her head. They had only lived there before, and they were in Dongcheng. She has never lived in Fucheng, and she knows that it is where powerful people live.
What's more, she just has a place to stay here. There are three villages here, and she will definitely visit them frequently in the future.
"You don't have to look at it. Just go into the courtyard. It's just right. I'll help me select a few people to take care of the house later."
"Okay, okay, then I'll call the people out first and Miss Yu will pick first."
He looked at Shalu again, and found that a lot of time had been wasted at this moment. Even if he went to the government office to handle the transfer of ownership, there was no one there.
He said: "The people from the government office have already gone to the government office. Let's go tomorrow."
Shopkeeper Liu was very considerate of Shopkeeper Wu and asked him to help go to the backyard to call the people out.
There are more than 200 people to pick, and we can’t finish them all in a short time.
Yu Wan and Zong Zheng followed the two shopkeepers to the backyard. She saw that the backyard was so big that it could accommodate hundreds of people without any problem.
Someone had already come out, and she said to Zong Zheng: "Uncle Zong, I leave this matter of selecting people to you."
Zong Zheng nodded and said, "Okay, Fourth Miss." The master has left the selection of people to him, which shows that the master trusts him.
So Zongzheng did his best to select everyone and never wanted anyone who was not practical.
He knows some unspeakable things about his master, and he must not choose someone with evil thoughts or bad words.
Those things that harm the master will be a big deal.
It took a full hour for Zongzheng to select 220 people.
Shopkeeper Liu’s legs were sore from standing and his face was frozen with laughter. This was the first time since he became the shopkeeper that he had encountered someone who selected people so carefully.
Yu Wan had her hands behind her back the whole time, looking at Zong Zhengchao with a smile.
Zongzheng is really attentive. He will ask everyone, especially the three village heads and the people on the house. He is particularly careful.
Yu Wan silently praised Zong Zheng. It was her luck to meet such a capable and loyal housekeeper.
“Miss Fourth, you’ve made your choice, do you have anything else to ask?”
Yu Wan nodded with satisfaction: "I feel confident that Uncle Zong is doing his job. He is doing a good job. These are the people."
