Farmer’s Little Girl

  Chapter 2035 Want to buy land

  Zhou Lizhong really saved a lot of money. Man Bao heard that the wedding date had been set, and on June 28, he turned around and immediately wrote to his parents, asking them to come see their grandson and get married.

   Then pick and choose on the shelf in the space, pick out the fabrics that are suitable for Liu Sanniang, take it out and give it to Xiao Qian.

   Seeing her with a cloth in her arms, Xiao Qian saw that there were at least five or six, and the fabric underneath almost touched the ground. She immediately went up to catch it and asked, "Are you going to make clothes?"

   "No," Man Bao said, "This is for Li Zhong to make a betrothal gift."

Little Qian was slightly surprised, took the things back to the house and counted them carefully, and found that there were six horses in total, and the materials and colors of each horse were good. Man Bao rarely bought fabrics outside. It can be said that she came from this one. I haven't seen Man Bao buy fabrics and clothes outside for more than a year, but he couldn't make them out of the house, or Mrs. Liu prepared them and sent them to him.

  "Is this a reward from the palace?"

Man Bao nodded, "These two horses were rewarded by the queen, this one was rewarded by the queen mother, this one was given to me by Mingda, and the two horses were given to me by the princess. I think the colors are both good and very suitable. Mother, so you can make a dowry for Lihong."

Xiao Qian said with a smile: "Your eldest brother and I will go out to buy it, and the big head saved a lot of money by himself. I have calculated with your elder brother, and it is enough to buy a good betrothal gift. You can take these things back. "

Man Bao shook his head and said, "Sister-in-law, just take it. Anyway, I get a lot of rewards. Originally, half of the fabric I got was given to the fourth brother to exchange for tea and medicinal materials. The reason why the horses are not taken out is because they are good."

"Good fabrics, as long as they are well preserved, do not change color in ten or twenty years. Therefore, the fabric can be used as a money spender. I immediately add these pieces of fabric as a bride price. Not only does it look better, but also saves some. Money to do other things."

  Man Bao also had plans in private, and Bai Shan also reminded her that the development of a family must be seen at least 20 years later, and the development of a family must be seen at least 50 years later.

  So Man Bao quietly said to Xiao Qian: "Save some money, and Lizhong can make money after they get married, and we can also buy them some land."

  Xiao Qian immediately said: "The big head is divided into the village."

  "Is there enough Yongyetian points in the village this year?"

   "It's still enough."

   "Where's that mouthful of fields?"

Xiao Qian smiled and said: "It's still a mountain, and there is a large area under the mountain. Speaking of which, he was lucky this time. When he was divided, he was assigned a small mountain. The wasteland also belonged to him, because the wasteland occupied a lot, the village even opened the wasteland for him, and your second and third brothers will plant all privet seeds for him this year..."

The land in the family is combined, and the harvest will belong to the public. But in the future, the family will be separated unless the old Zhou family is so poor that he needs to sell the land to support his parents. Whose is it?

  Xiao Qian said this to tell Man Bao that his family now has no shortage of land and big heads.

Man Bao said, "There is not too much land, and it is in the village, and it is still too far away from the capital. If Sanniang stays in Beijing in the future, what will Lizhong do in Beijing? He can't have no land at all. "

  Xiaoqian smiled and said, “He has the ability now, even if he can feed himself and the whole family from his family’s land.”

  Man Bao knew that she was talking about Zhou Lizhong's business with Chu Lang. No matter how bad he was, he could now be a bookkeeper, which is better than farming in the village.

Man Bao took her sister-in-law's sign language and said earnestly: "Sister-in-law, for the long-term plan, Lizhong should still buy some land. For business, you can go twice a year like the fourth brother now. excessive."

"The dynasty treated merchants leniently and did not manage strictly, but in the future, if the treasury is very short of money, the dynasty will need money urgently, fearing that more business taxes will be levied, and there will be strict requirements in other areas, so land is still not available. Less, at least we are farmers, not merchants."

  "This is a long-term plan. In the short term, it is not bad for the two of them to have a plot of land near the capital. Not to mention planting some food, just planting some fruits and vegetables can save a lot of money in a year."

Many of the melons and fruits in Zhouji Restaurant are now delivered from Pucun. Those winter melons, pumpkins, and cabbage that can be stored, last year Zhou Dalang set aside a plot of land for planting, and the commonly used beans , And directly use the rent paid by the tenant farmers.

  Not only the restaurants are in use, most of the food at home is delivered by the Zhuangzi, and the Bai’s side often sends some fruits and vegetables in season. They are not extravagant, so the expenses at home are not large.

  Little Qian has lived in the capital for more than a year, but she often buys and buys from nearby people, mainly because she cooks several kinds of food that are very popular.

  Just the ingredients are often bought.

  Although it's just a purchasing steward, she has a lot of contacts. She also occasionally heard from them about their host's expenses, which is really a lot.

  In this way, Xiao Qian can understand. Although Man Bao said that she did not understand the long-term plan, she also knew that it was good for her family.

So she was quickly persuaded, thinking for a while and saying, "It’s just that the land in the capital is very expensive. My father used the money and wanted to buy some land near the capital, and asked your eldest brother and them to go out to inquire, but I just asked. The prices are high, so we don’t want to talk about it. We thought about it for two days, and when we asked again, we sold it."

  It is completely different from buying a piece of land from them, which has to be repeated for ten or twenty days.

  Man Bao couldn’t help but uttered aloud and said, “Sister-in-law, it’s hard to buy in the capital. We can go to Yongzhou to have a look. There is a lot of land there, and the land price is not very expensive.”

"It can only be this way. Then we will allocate some money and go to Yongzhou to buy a few acres of land, but the land is very difficult to buy," the little Qian said in confusion: "But I think there is a lot of land in Beijing and Yongzhou. It’s much larger than ours, and a large piece of flat land passes by. Unlike ours, there are mountains. How could so much land not be sold?"

  Man Baodao: “The imperial court has stipulated that the Yongyetian given by the imperial court can only be sold when it is impossible to provide for the elderly or have no means to bury the elderly. Koufentian must be taken back after death.”

"So ordinary people sell less land, and those with family assets sell less land unless they want to move away." Like their family, if they don’t stay in the capital in the future, there are only a few acres of land nearby, so it’s better to sell it directly. Otherwise, if you keep it, you can't plant it yourself, and it will be troublesome to rent out and collect rent.

   "There are also changes in the family," Man Baodao: "Although there are many people in Beijing and Yongzhou, there are not many people like this, so land is hard to find."

  But this is also good. It is difficult for them to buy land, and it is also difficult for others to buy. Then ordinary people rarely lose land. From the perspective of the court, this is actually a good thing.

  　See you at eight in the evening
