It can be rented to merchants. Obviously, it will not be sold just because of the ancestral land. It will definitely not be sold.
Zhou Lang complained in his heart. After looking at each room, he was quite satisfied, so he nodded and said: "Okay, that's it. By the way, where is the county government office?"
The landlord was stunned for a moment and then immediately said: "Over there, don't worry, we will definitely not trick anyone here."
I thought Zhou Lang specifically targeted the county government to threaten them because he was worried.
Zhou Lang smiled and didn't explain. He first paid half a month's rent, got the key from the landlord and stayed there temporarily. The remaining half month will be paid after the lease is signed tomorrow.
The landlord happily agreed. It had been nearly three months since he had packed up his house, and he had only rented it out twice, each time for only three days. This was the longest time.
As soon as he went out, he picked out forty coins and gave them to the two children, patted their heads and said, "Next time you have guests, please bring them to me. Don't worry, I won't treat you badly."
He said: "Introducing guests to us is not as profitable as introducing guests to those inns?"
The child happily agreed, stuffed the money into his arms and put it away, then waited outside to listen to Zhou Lang's instructions.
Zhou Lang quickly brought a few people out, called two children and said, "Take us to the county government office."
When the two children stayed, they didn't receive many customers, but for people like Zhou Lang who approached the county government as soon as they entered the city, he was the first one.
So the two of them hesitated for a moment and then advised carefully: "Your Excellency, it's dark now and the county government doesn't open the door..."
Zhou Lang patted him on the head and said, "I asked you to lead the way, why are you talking so much nonsense?"
The two of them could only take them to the county government office.
At this time, there were some stalls on the road in front of the county government office. There were lanterns hanging on the stalls, and some diners were eating. Not far away was the county government announcement wall, and further ahead was the county government office. However, except for the two lanterns hanging at the door,
Except for the small area in front of the door that was illuminated, the rest of the place was dark.
The two children stopped and said, "Well, that's the county government office. As I said, the county government office is closed now."
Zhou Lang asked: "Where is the door to the backyard?"
The two children exhaled and said with a smile: "It turns out that the noble man is here to give gifts."
They said: "Our county magistrate does not accept gifts from business travelers. If you give them, you will be kicked out."
Zhou Lang nodded and asked: "Where is the door to the backyard?"
The two children could only help them lead the way. They entered an alley and after walking for more than ten steps, they said: "This is it."
Zhou Lang asked someone to knock on the door.
The concierge inside the door heard the noise when people walked into the alley, so he opened the door as soon as there was a knock. He first glanced at the person who knocked on the door, and when he found that he didn't recognize him, he said: "The master of the house has stopped, who are you?"
,What’s the matter?”
Zhou Lang walked up to him, looked at him for a while, and called out: "Liu Ba?"
Liu Ba looked up and immediately the half-open door opened. He shouted in surprise: "Fourth uncle!"
He immediately came out and let people in, "Why didn't anyone tell you when you arrived, so you guys could go and greet you."
Then he shouted at the door, "Come quickly, my fourth uncle is here——"
The quiet county magistrate's house immediately became lively. Zhou Man and Bai Shan were the first to run out. They were surprised to see Zhou Lang, "Fourth brother!"
Zhou Lang also laughed and rushed forward to take a closer look at her, "Oh, didn't you say you had a baby? Why hasn't your appearance changed at all?"
"Really?"
Bai Shan was also surprised that Zhou Lang would come. He glanced at the people behind him and saw that they were villagers from Qili Village, so he asked: "Fourth brother, are you bringing these people with you?"
"No, there is a caravan. I rented a yard outside for them to rest..."
Zhou Man: "When did you come to the city? You even rented the yard."
"Oh, yes, we have to send them some food," Zhou Lang said: "We have brought a lot of good goods this time, and someone must always keep an eye on it."
Bai Shan summoned a servant and said, "Go and make arrangements."
Zhou Lang shouted: "There are fifteen people in that yard."
The servant agreed and prepared according to this number.
The two children who led them over were stunned and stood outside the door for a while without reacting.
As soon as the porter saw their appearance, he knew they were the brokers at the city gate. He touched a handful of copper coins and asked, "How much?"
Zhou Lang finally remembered the two children and asked Sanzhu to come out with money and give them to them, "Here, you have led the way well. Please wait a little longer. I will take people back later."
When the two children saw that they gave them ten cents, which was twice as much as the price, they immediately bent over happily and agreed.
They took a big order tonight and made a total of fifty cash.
Back in the main room, Xiao Qian came out to see Zhou Lang, greeted San Zhu and others, and said, "I'll go to the kitchen to make some food for you."
Zhou Lang: "Sister-in-law, just make whatever you want."
Xiao Qian agreed and ordered a few bowls of noodles for them.
Bai Shan asked: "Are you here for Longchi Wharf? Fourth brother, can you spare your hands to do business here?"
Zhou Man asked, "Did Lijun ask you to come here?"
Zhou Lang did not hide anything and said directly: "I handed over the trade route on the grassland to the third son. That boy is smart and has been with me for so many years. Now he has grown tall and strong and can stand alone, so I came here.
have a look."
In fact, Zhou Lang was a little timid in his heart. After all, it was a new place and a new trade route, but he had always been bold, not to mention that as long as he thought that Man Bao and Bai Shan were here, his heart would calm down.
Bai Shan then smiled and said: "Manbao has booked a shop for you in Longchi. It is almost completed now. I will have someone take you to see it in two days. Don't worry, business by sea is more profitable than by land."
There are more, but it is also more and more dangerous."
Zhou Lang asked: "What danger?"
"There are wind and waves, and there are pirates." Bai Shan paused and said, "Other than that, I'm sick. Fourth brother, don't you know you're seasick?"
Zhou Lang waved his hand and said confidently: "I don't get seasick! Do you think I will get seasick? You used to ride on the bamboo rafts rowed by me when you were young."
Bai Shan: "...It's not that ship."
"Aren't they all ships?"
Zhou Man said: "Forget it, take him to Longchi another day and let the fishermen take him out for a while to know whether he is dizzy or not. But that time is short. If he doesn't feel dizzy on a fishing boat, it doesn't mean he won't feel dizzy on a sea ship anyway.
I'll just prepare some medicine for you then."
Zhou Man reached out and patted his shoulder, and said seriously: "Fourth brother, I believe you."
Zhou Lang always felt that this was not a good thing. He looked around and asked, "Where is the child? Let me see the child."
As an uncle, he hasn't seen his niece yet.
Jiulan went to take out the little lady who was already asleep.
Zhou Lang, Zhou Zhuzhu and others all came up to take a look and exclaimed: "She looks very much like Aunt Manbao."
"I feel more like Uncle Manbao."
"This kid looks so white."
"Go, go, you smell of sweat, don't wake the child up," Zhou Lang pushed them away. He looked carefully and was very satisfied, "This child looks like the child of our old Zhou family, he must be
