In the courtyard, craftsmen are busy.
The beams of the main house have been put up.
Originally, it was a big deal to go to the beam, and ordinary people wanted to invite the young and strong men from the left and right neighbors to help the beam, and then have a big banquet to celebrate the thanks, but Xia Xun's status in Moling Town is now undecided, and he belongs to the people who no one dares to mess with and no one dares to touch, so the neighbors naturally don't have to think about it.
On the beam, the next thing is easy to do, the top is stirred with glutinous rice juice and the yellow mud straw is used to wipe the roof, and the indoor has its own skilled craftsmen to build the dust, and then a piece of bright red tiles from the ridge of the roof began to build down a piece of fish scales, the bright main house is formed, the four beams and pillars of the main house have been painted with bright lacquer, and the yard is sprinkled with a faint smell of paint.
Xiao Di and Peng Ziqi squatted in the backyard, there is an area of one acre square, originally like an ordinary farmhouse, it was the backyard vegetable field of the Yang family, and then it was used as a cowshed, and now it has been leveled out, and there are granaries, mills, inner houses and pavilions and other buildings in the planning, but there are still a lot of places that are temporarily empty.
Xiao Di hugged the red skirt in her arms and said with great interest: "Sister, how about building a small pavilion here to raise a few more bushes of bamboo, build a big bathroom, and raise some flowers outside." ” Peng Ziqi said with a smile: "You, do you want to move your home in Qingzhou This yard is not as small as that in Qingzhou, it seems that the courtyards of the houses here are not like those over there, enclosure of 100 acres, random construction, small place, and careful design." ” Xiao Di said: "Then what good idea do you have?"
Peng Ziqi said: "I don't either, when I was at home, uncles, uncles, cousins and cousins, so many men, how could I have to worry about these things, except for practicing martial arts, studying, and being forced to be a female celebrity, basically nothing for me." ” Xiao Diwu's eyes rolled, and he suddenly said happily: "Then dig a pond here, how about piling a rockery next to it, stacking one here and one there, digging a bigger pond in the middle, and building a curved bridge on it." ” Peng Ziqi smiled: "Okay, it must sound beautiful." ” Carpenter Wang had a charcoal pen in his ear, and he was passing by, and when he heard this, he couldn't help but smile and said: "Madam, Miss Xiaodi, that can't be done, the establishment rules, and the court has its own legal system."
The master's current identity, if the flower pond in the house is built with two mountains, it will be against the system, and it will be a robbery and a killing. ” Peng Ziqi stuck out his tongue and whispered: "It's so troublesome, how can people understand this, and they almost broke into a catastrophe." ” Xiao Di was also a little depressed, so he said: "Forget it, don't rock the mountain, how about just building a pool" Peng Ziqi thought for a while and said, "I still don't want it."
Our house is not very big, and if we build a pool, it will take up too much space.
Besides, in the future, we will always have children in our family, running around, what if we fall into the water, what if it is too unsafe. ” Xiao Di laughed deliciously: "Sister Peng, you think so thoughtfully." ” Suddenly, her eyes widened, and then she looked at Peng Ziqi excitedly: "Sister, you won't have children, right?"
Peng Ziqi pouted and said, "Where is it, I think" Xiao Di touched her stomach and licked her lips enviously: "Oh, there will be sooner or later anyway, hehe, raising a baby must be fun."
Peng Ziqi glanced at her and found that her gaze was just like her expression when she was holding a puppy, and immediately became vigilant: "Hey, hey, hey, children are not puppies, you are not allowed to play with them." ” Xiao Di said: "I won't."
Then he immediately booked: "However, when you and the young master have a baby, you must let me hold it, well, give it to me every day." ” While the two were talking, the next person brought in a middle-aged man with a green scarf in it, Peng Ziqi saw him come a few times, and recognized him as a tooth shop, so he hurriedly stood up with Xiao Di.
"Ouch, ma'am, you're here."
The man in the tooth line smiled before speaking, and nodded: "Madam, the Xiao steward of your house entrusted the small one to find a field for your house, and the little one has not been idle in the past few days, asking everywhere, but coincidentally, there happened to be an official who let go of the foreign post and wanted to move his family away, and the local houses and fields were in a hurry to make a move.
The little one said that when the official heard that Master Yang of your mansion was a student and a scholar, he couldn't help but feel good, so he agreed to sell the land to your mansion.
The little one talked about the price for a long time, and the official promised to resell all the twenty acres of good paddy fields in his house to your mansion, and ten bills for one acre of high-quality paddy fields.
"Land Deals" Managing family finance, this is Peng Ziqi's weakness, how can she understand these things, she looked at Xiao Di as if asking for help in the blink of an eye, Xiao Yu was also at a loss, Peng Ziqi couldn't help but hesitate: "Ten banknotes and one acre of paddy field, whether it is expensive or not, is there any truth and incompleteness in what the people of this tooth line say?"
Seeing her hesitating, the man said, "Madam, many people are rushing to ask for these twenty acres of paddy fields."
To tell you the truth, even if it is a small hand, there are three families to buy, but each of them can't eat 20 acres of land in one go, and I want to transfer the land to them, so I have to disassemble and sell it, troublesome.
But if you don't get an idea, then I'll sell them the land first.
I'll go back and find the right plot for you. ” The person in the tooth line said, arching his hand and about to leave, Peng Ziqi was a little anxious, and hurriedly said: "Wait, when this paddy field is really a high-grade paddy field to sign the contract, we have to go and see it for ourselves."
Ten banknotes per acre, is this price fair?"
The man with the tooth walked and laughed, "That's nature, that's nature."
Madam, you want to know, people were originally an official master, not a first-class good field, people will cultivate as for ten banknotes an acre of land, the small one will give you a thorough bottom, this price is not low, we Jiangnan place, the best water mu ten banknotes, is considered high, the most fertile high-grade paddy field, but only sell a twelve or three banknotes, but people this land is the best good land, near the water source and close, because you want to get rid of it, this gives you the price of ten times, or it has to be higher.
If you buy it piecemeal, it's not that you can't buy cheaper land than this, but you also want the land to be connected to the house, and it's convenient to manage, and you can also have two acres in the east village and one and a half acres in the west village."
Peng Ziqi listened to his sincerity, and his words were full of reason, so he hesitated and said: "The master and the steward are not here, in this case, I will make an appointment with you first."
"Ten banknotes, or one to buy twenty acres, this is not cheap" Xia Xun and Steward Xiao walked in from outside, Steward Xiao whispered a few words to Xia Xun, Xia Xun came over with a smile, Peng Ziqi was overjoyed, suddenly relaxed, and called: "Official." ” Xiao Di ran over directly, and couldn't wait to ask, "Young Master, you can see the young lady" Xia Xun patted her little hand and said to the tooth girl: "It's really hard for you to go back and forth."
Yang is sincere in wanting to buy land, as long as the price is fair, it will definitely be shot, of course, you work hard from it, your benefits, I naturally can't be short.
But his twenty acres of water, regardless of whether it is really a good field or not" The tooth patted his chest, and swore an oath: "Master Yang, this is not bad."
Of course, the master who does our job is the master who cuts tofu on both sides of the knife and makes clever mouths everywhere, but there are some things that he dare not say.
Whether the land is good or not, you go to take a look, ask left and right, you can't hide it from anyone at all, no matter how stupid the little one is, how dare you play tricks on it. ” Xia Xun smiled: "Don't worry, I also believe that you are telling the truth, but ten yuan per acre of land is not too cheap, not to mention that I eat twenty acres in one go, he should be cheaper."
You have also seen that I have just returned to my hometown, my family has built a lot of construction, and I am a little short of money, as the saying goes: I am not poor in food, I am not poor in clothing, I am poor if I can't calculate, and I am thrifty in my family, if I can save two yuan of money per acre of land, it is forty yuan, and a seven-pin Zhengtang county master has a year's money, you know what I mean."
The tooth guy saw that the housewife was not good at financial management, and pretended to say that the other party was in a hurry to make a move, and fished her to buy, and in a few words, he went around her, and he was happy to make a lot of money, but when he heard Xia Xun say this, he knew that he had encountered a hard ballast, and he couldn't help but secretly exclaim: "If he comes back later" Yayu still didn't give up, and said: "But people are only willing to sell at the price of ten per acre, and the small ones have done their best."
This official is a foreign official, and he is about to take office, so I'm afraid" Xia Xun smiled: "I'm not in a hurry.
You see, my house is all cleaned up, how can I get the beginning of August, what can I plant at that time, when I have a year, you can slowly visit, if this is not suitable, then find another family, you are a dental business, you will not do a business every year, hehe, I believe you can always find a suitable field. ” Yayu agreed with a bitter face, and retreated in a gloomy manner.
He already knows the bottom limit of Xia Xun, twenty acres of high-grade good land, eight yuan per mu, if it is not a particularly good condition, it is best not to exceed this price in price.
Peng Ziqi patted his chest and smiled happily: "Official, fortunately you are back, I have never taken care of these things, what people say, it sounds reasonable, I heard him say it in a hurry just now, and I was afraid that I would be bought by others, so I almost agreed."
Now that I think about it, it's not like I'm going to be scolded by him. ” Xia Xun comforted: "People have strengths, there must be shortcomings, how can there be omnipotent characters, although I know the price of land, but the market of water acres in the south of the Yangtze River is actually not very clear, or Lao Xiao just reminded me." ” Peng Ziqi saw that he didn't blame himself for taking random ideas, so he couldn't help but smile sweetly, and asked again: "Official, did you have a smooth trip?"
Xia Xun's brows were slightly locked, and he was thinking about how to explain the situation to Ziqi, when a yin and yang strange voice behind him said: "Yang Xu, no matter how busy you are with your personal affairs, you can't not be unconcerned about the affairs of the clan at all, I will be shouting all over the street this morning, even if you don't hear it, there are so many people in your house, and none of you can ignore it." ” As soon as Xia Xun turned around, he saw Yang Yu standing there with Yang Wenwu.
Xia Xun said with some disgust: "What are you doing here?"
Yang Yu said: "Why are you urging you to be a busy man, there are important things to discuss in the clan, there are people in each room, and they have long been concentrated in our Yang family ancestral hall, and now the patriarch, the clan elders, and the elders of each room are all waiting for you Yang Xiucai."
