Hu Zhen stayed in the Wu family for a long time. The masters of the Wu family were famous for their luxury. It was common to spend ten thousand taels a month.
But no matter how extravagant they are, they will not be like Su Yueling, who spend a lot of money without blinking just to make it easier for her to watch a good show. Buying a house in the state capital, arranging manpower, and buying thousands of miles of horses, all of which add up to less than two thousand taels.
Can't handle it.
What she didn't know was that Su Yueling was tapping the system at this time.
[System, can’t you relay the situation on the Wu family’s side to me? 】
[No, we don’t have this permission. The most we can do is broadcast the outdoor situation in Lushan Village for you.] Their system also has to abide by the right to privacy. Just like in modern times, it is normal to install the Sky Eye in public places, but if it is installed in other people’s homes, then
That won’t work.
【I will pay a thousand points.】
[...It really doesn't work.] The poor 250 system drooled with envy. The virtue points it had at the beginning were taken away by Su Yueling. Every time Su Yueling completed a task, it could have some. But later on
, Su Yueling was too lazy to do the daily virtuous tasks, and instead refreshed the favorability of the whole village, which resulted in the system not receiving any money. No matter how many virtuous points Su Yueling had, it had nothing to do with it.
【What about ten thousand points?】
【Really can not.】
The system looked at the 987 points it had collected on Soso in the background. It didn't even spend money to change its appearance - changing its appearance required at least a thousand points. The cute new system was so sad that it was so stimulated that its memory was burned.
I couldn't help but take the initiative to turn off my phone, and then I shut myself off.
Su Yueling felt very regretful when she felt that the system's signal had disappeared.
If it can't be broadcast, it can't be broadcast, so why did she hang up?
Unable to take shortcuts through the system, Su Yueling had no choice but to rely on her own efforts.
Going back and forth to the state capital still takes time. Yuan Suijun's current focus is on preparing for the autumn provincial examination. Naturally, Su Yueling will not let him waste time by running back and forth. Anyway, what the family does not lack now is manpower.
Wu Shucai came back from the state capital not long ago, so it would be better to let Yuan Suifeng go there, and adding Awu would be enough.
Yuan Suifeng was very happy to run errands for Su Yueling, "Okay, leave this to me."
Su Yueling gave him five thousand taels. According to Grandma Hu, three thousand taels was definitely enough. But it was just in case. If there was a good house, even if it cost more, I had to buy it.
Wu Shu didn't think that Su Yueling's money was worthless. Anyway, he didn't have to worry about selling the house in the state capital. Even if he didn't like it in the future, he could sell it at any time.
Without the Wu family gossip, Su Yueling would be bored to death, and only "The Legend of Su Yuan" written by Huang Liangke could soothe her wounded heart.
She heard Wu Shu say that the sales of this book were extremely good, with 40,000 copies sold in the February issue. Qiu Yuxuan even put up a big-character poster to show off. I heard there were many more
People wrote letters to Huang Liangke, but the letters were always sent to Qiu Yuxuan.
Su Yueling was very happy. She was the first reader of this story. Moreover, she was also the one who discovered the goodness of this story. Otherwise, there would be no Huangliang Ke who was so famous in Daxia. Moreover, she also had "Su Yuan" in her hand.
The manuscript of "Legend". Even if she was given ten thousand taels of this manuscript, she would not sell it. She would keep it for collection.
When Su Yueling was so idle that she almost grew hairy, the villagers in Lushan Village were still busy paving roads.
The road to Lushan Village has been paved long ago, and three-quarters of the way to the county seat has been completed.
They were paving the road while humming a tune, and couldn't stop the smiles on their faces. Speaking of which, it takes ten days to harden the road, so every time in Lushan Village, half of the road is paved.
The other half of the road, which is usually not dry yet, will be watched by villagers to prevent naughty children from stepping on it and leaving footprints.
The battle here was so big that other villages were alerted and came out to watch the fun.
"Are you building a road? Is it the money given to you by the county magistrate?" The villagers in Baishui Village suddenly became jealous, why didn't their village have one? Is it because there are two scholars in Lushan Village?
"Of course not. The money for paving the road was given by Su Yueling from our village. You know Su Yueling, right? He is the one who invented the three-spindle spinning wheel." The villagers of Lushan Village naturally had to refute the rumors, lest they accuse the county magistrate.
It’s unfair. Moreover, building roads in your own village sounds much better than building roads funded by the county.
They couldn't help shouting, "Do you know what happened to our road?"
A villager in Baishui Village said with a sour tone, "Don't we just use stones and clay? When our village has time, we will also go to the mountains to dig stones and soil and repair it ourselves."
"With just stone and clay, can this road be so smooth and strong? Have you ever seen such a good road?"
The villagers in other villages took a closer look and found that this road was different from the roads they had seen before. Even the roads in the city were not this good. There was no dust at all, and it was extremely smooth.
"What is this paved with?"
"Nuttinous rice! One mile of road requires more than two hundred stones of glutinous rice. You think this road costs a lot of money."
The villagers in Baishui Village, who were good at calculations, did the calculations and gasped. One hundred taels of silver per mile would be lost. They really couldn't afford to build such a road.
Lushan Village was obviously like them in the past few years, but after Su Yueling married, almost every household had a spinning wheel, and they had meat to eat and silk to wear during the New Year. Now even the road is so grand. From now on, Lushan Village
It will only get better and better, but they are still living the same life as before. On the other hand, the people in Ankou Village smiled directly. Their village is located right between Lushan Village and the county seat, which means that after repairing
When the time comes, they will be able to follow the path, and they will not have to worry about stepping on mud every time they go to the county town.
How well built this road is.
The villagers in Ankou Village knew about this and thought that they couldn't take advantage of it in vain. The village chiefs simply called on the villagers to help. Anyway, most of the work in the fields has been done and it is quite easy.
When Su Yueling learned about this, she treated everyone equally and said that Ankou Village came to help and the food was the same as theirs.
For the villagers in Ankou Village, the meals provided by Su Yueling were even richer than what they had during the Chinese New Year. They felt more energetic after eating them.
Originally, about a hundred villagers from Ankou Village came to help. Now that they knew the food was so good, they all rushed to come. They almost started fighting over the quota. In the end, the village chiefs had to arrange shifts for them and take turns.
This little episode also spread, which made the people of Lushan Village very proud. Ankou Village is not far from the county seat, so this little episode also spread to the county seat.
County Magistrate Yao also heard this and couldn't help but smile and asked his master, "Is the road in Lushan Village really better than that in the city?"
The master said: "I haven't seen this with my own eyes, so I don't know."
County magistrate Yao was very curious, "Nuttinous rice can actually build roads. Tomorrow happens to be a holiday, so why don't we go and see what the roads built with glutinous rice look like."
