But having a heartbeat does not mean taking action.
He stood in front of a painted piece of land, blowing in the sea breeze, and couldn't help but pull up his clothes. When he looked up, he saw Bai Shan wearing a large robe standing beside him.
He glanced at the ring of hair on his neck and asked, "How many floors is the shop yard?"
Bai Shandao: "Two floors, too high is not good. The sea breeze here is strong, so it is generally two floors."
To say it is common means that there are still more than two levels.
Magistrate Lu raised his eyebrows, "Then based on two floors, including the yard at the back, the cost of building a shop is between eighty taels and one hundred taels. If you buy a piece of land, you have to build an extra piece of land.
, that is at least two hundred taels of expenditure."
"Master Bai, two hundred taels can buy two shops in Beihai County."
Bai Shan smiled slightly and said: "But two hundred taels can never buy a shop on the main street of Qingzhou City. I am confident that the shops here will be more profitable than the shops on the main street of Qingzhou City."
Magistrate Lu wanted to point to this barren land and tell him not to have such wishful thinking, but looking at the confident Bai Shan, he opened his mouth but still did not say anything.
Bai Shan's smile was shallow but sincere, "Magistrate Lu, I have taken great care of you since I came to Beihai County. That's why I'm reminding you."
Magistrate Lu smiled bitterly, "But not everyone can take out two hundred taels casually."
Bai Shan blinked and asked, "Isn't it true? You have been an official for many years and you don't even have two hundred taels?"
Magistrate Lu frowned, "The county magistrate's annual salary is twenty-four thousand yuan, which means it's only twenty-four taels. Where can I get so much money?"
Bai Shan: "...But you still have 300 acres of farmland!"
Magistrate Lu frowned and said, "It can indeed help subsidize the family, but it won't make us rich, right?"
Bai Shan simply dragged him to settle the accounts, but he didn't believe it. With 300 acres of official land and being the county magistrate, the official land chosen must be the best one.
Oh, by the way, what he is inheriting now is Magistrate Lu’s land, which is just outside Beihai County. The soil quality there is quite good, at least 80 acres of good farmland, and the rest, except for some dry land, is
There are nearly 120 acres of medium-sized farmland, which is good for growing rice or wheat.
There was a large area of open land nearby, and Bai Shan directly set aside a large area for his own benefit to build houses, pig sheds and chicken sheds for the long-term workers.
The annual rice and wheat harvests are not very high. Even if the current average yield is the most common, it is still a lot.
Including the beans planted, not counting the newly added pigs this year, but even raising chickens and sheep, the annual income will not be bad. Calculating the three hundred acres of land, excluding the costs, the annual harvest is the lowest income.
It won't be less than eighty taels.
As a county magistrate, housing is free. As for food, in addition to salary, they also have lumi. The lumi distributed every month is not only enough to eat, but also to sell some. As long as the rice and noodles sold are not extravagant,
, it’s definitely enough to buy meat, vegetables and other things can be produced in your own farm...
To be honest, after Bai Shan and Zhou Man came to Beihai County, their salary and salary were not only enough to support their family, but they also had some left over.
The income from Bai Shan's career can be saved completely.
They have a lot of people to support, and their expenses are much higher than that of County Magistrate Lu.
"You have been serving as the county magistrate for a long time. At least eighty taels a year, and four hundred taels in five years, not to mention other income..."
Magistrate Lu looked at the income calculated by Bai Shan on the paper and opened his mouth slightly. He had been speechless for a long time. When he heard this sentence, he suddenly woke up and jumped up and said: "Magistrate Bai, please don't say anything."
You’ve wronged me, how can I have other income?”
Bai Shan: "...So you just keep the money in your hands and don't invest it?"
Magistrate Lu was stunned again, "Investment?"
"Yes, although officials do not compete with the people for profit, it is still okay to increase assets within a reasonable range."
Magistrate Lu: "...for example?"
"For example, when the county inspected the county, I found a hot spring on a deserted mountain, so I paid for the mountain in accordance with the law, then planted some vegetables and fruits on it, and then built several yards nearby.
, you can eat the fruits you grow at home or sell them for money, and you can also rent out the yard to entertain guests. You can make some money while being comfortable, so why not?"
Magistrate Lu: "Are you using your power for personal gain?"
Bai Shan disagreed, "The imperial court has a prescribed price range for the sales price of open land and non-mines. When others come to buy, the county government will either not sell it, and the price they want to buy is similar to what I gave. The county government's income is not different. Where is the difference?"
For personal gain?"
"No, no," Magistrate Lu waved his hand, frowning and thinking for a moment, "I remember, during the winter solstice, my family went out and bought a basket of vegetables. One basket cost one hundred coins! Are you selling those vegetables?
"
Bai Shan blinked, "Really? This kind of thing is left to the subordinates. How could I, a county magistrate, know about it?"
Seeing him about to leave, County Magistrate Lu grabbed him and said, "Sir Bai, I finally know why you were able to build Longchi Wharf like this in one year, because you are a profiteer! That basket of vegetables, I usually buy
It cost less than ten cents, but you doubled it tenfold."
Bai Shan wanted to pull his hand out and said: "Don't talk nonsense, what a profiteer, I am an upright official!"
The two started fighting, and Magistrate Lu said, "You can't leave. We've come to this point. You have to give me some advice. How can I make money in Yidu County?"
Bai Shan: "You are the magistrate of Yidu County, why are you asking me?"
"Because this county suddenly remembered something. You said that you want to make Longchi Wharf a more profitable place than the main street of Qingzhou City. Then isn't the main street of Qingzhou City the main street of Yidu County? In other words, your place
Are your shops going to directly steal my business in Yidu County?"
Bai Shan:...What a mistake!
"No," Bai Shan said with a serious face: "I am attracting more business travelers, and Yidu County will also benefit from it. Laizhou next door doesn't have any objections."
Zhou Man stood at the door and watched them fussing over each other, and couldn't help but ask, "What are you doing?"
As soon as Bai Shan saw her, he felt like he was being pardoned. He immediately broke away from Magistrate Kailu and stepped forward, "You are finally here. Magistrate Lu misunderstood me..."
After Zhou Man finished listening to their narrative, she tilted her head and looked at Magistrate Lu, "You say he is as powerful as a profiteer, so do you want to buy the land here?"
Magistrate Lu was stunned for a moment, then began to think deeply. After a while, he gritted his teeth and said, "Buy!"
This time Bai Shan was stunned.
Zhou Man shrugged at him and said, "Isn't this the end?"
It was not over yet. County Magistrate Lu felt that they could have a more friendly and in-depth exchange of ideas. He folded up the draft paper of Bai Shancai's calculations on the table and stuffed it into his arms. Then he pulled Bai Shancai and said, "Mr. Bai, this county feels that you are important in civil affairs."
It’s very far-sighted, let’s have an in-depth exchange of ideas.”
?? Tell you a decision that the previous announcement time was at the request of the majority of book friends, but because I couldn't always exist because I couldn't exist on time, so I did not preview the time from today, but I will be in the future, but I will be in the future.
The last chapter is to say good night to everyone.
Well, there are also my birthday today, although I am one year old, but I have grown up, so I did n’t have any in vain for one year. Please wish me one year old.
