As for doing coolie work, Bai Dashu has never thought about it. He has studied for several years and has a reputation as a child student. How can he do lowly things?
"I'll go to the county town in a few days to see how Bai Wen is doing there and see if I can find a good job." After Bai Dashu finished speaking, he entered the house, not wanting to look at Mrs. Bai's face.
Old Mrs. Bai rolled her eyes. She always thought that her eldest son was capable, so she didn't say anything harsh now, lest Bai Dashu would be successful and not give her any money.
"Younger's family, why don't you come out to cook and wait to become a grandma?"
Old Mrs. Bai shouted towards the other end of the west room. When she caught a glimpse of Bai Yuanshi carrying hot soup noodles to the white snow house, a calculating light flashed across her face.
Bai Yuanshi had been given a lot of cold looks by Old Mrs. Bai during this period. She thought that Old Mrs. Bai would say a few words that were so subtle to an idler, but she didn't expect that Old Mrs. Bai would ignore her, and her heart couldn't help but tremble.
"Mom, please go back to my grandma's house. I really can't stay in this house any longer. You should quickly find me an in-law's house, otherwise I will be sold out sooner or later."
Bai Mei grabbed Bai Qi, who was about to go out to cook, and said in a tearful voice.
Mrs. Bai Qi's body stiffened. After her three brothers' accident, her family could no longer tolerate her. How could she have the nerve to go back?
But thinking of what Old Mrs. Bai said before, Bai Qishi said firmly: "Don't worry, mother will never let them sell you."
After resting at home for two days, Sanfang and his family took a carriage to the county. When passing through the town, they picked up Bai Xiaoshan as well.
Instructor Feng has already gone to train people for Bai Ling. There is currently no instructor at home, but the nursing staff insist on practicing kung fu every day. Their skills are indeed much better than before, and their physique is also much stronger.
Not only the nursing staff, but also the maids and wives have been practicing for a while. It can be said that everyone in the whole house can fight better than ordinary servants.
"If I had known better, I wouldn't have brought such a person out. The rent alone today is almost one tael of silver." Sitting in the room, Bai Liu said distressedly.
"Mom, let's go to Yahang tomorrow and buy a small yard here."
Bai Ling took the opportunity and said:
"The yards in this county are never afraid of being unsaleable. If few of us come here, renting them out will be a source of income in the future. Even if Xiaoshan becomes an official in the future, although the court does not allow officials to do business, it does not care how many houses and villages he has under his name.
of."
"I think so."
Bai Sanshu nodded and said:
"Buy a house. Xiaoshan will have a place to live when he studies here, and it will be convenient for us to come and visit him. If there are village houses and fields, we will also buy some. This will save the family more money and then turn it into a merchant."
Bai Liu didn't know as much as Bai Sanshu, but he also understood that the sons of merchants were allowed to take the imperial examination, but not be officials.
Afraid of delaying her son's future, Mrs. Bai Liu nodded hurriedly and said: "Then let's go to the dental shop tomorrow and buy more land. We won't be afraid of going hungry at any time. It's just that I didn't bring much money with me this time. I'm afraid it won't be enough.
.”
Mrs. Bai Liu regretted going out with only a few hundred taels of silver, but she had already arrived at the county seat and could not go back to get it.
"We all have money with us. If it's really not enough, let's pool it together and finish the business first." Bai Cao said with a smile.
I planned to go out to buy some pearls or something, but Baicao brought thousands of taels of silver, which was indeed a lot.
Bai Ling and others also nodded. In fact, the money in Bai Ling's space could buy the entire county, but she couldn't say that.
Of course, if the imperial court was really willing to sell it, Bai Ling would buy it immediately and return to his official life.
Bai Xiaoshan saw that his family had such plans for him, but he could not do anything for the family except spending money. He became more determined to study well and repay his family in the future.
After resting one night at the inn, the next day the whole family, along with a car full of nurses and maids, went to the dental shop. The people at the dental shop were almost frightened and thought they were here to cause trouble.
When Bai Sanshu expressed his intention to come, Ren Yazi immediately showed a chrysanthemum smile and invited all the gods of wealth.
When he saw Bai Ling behind him, Ren Yazi smiled as if he was a different person, and his words were also somewhat respectful.
This was not the first time Bai Ling came to Yaxing, and Yazi was quite familiar with this man named Li Fa, so he got straight to the point:
"Uncle Li, the main reason we came here this time is to buy some land, a large one. There is also a house. It is best to have a quiet place in the middle of the bustle. If there is a shop, you can also introduce it."
"Miss Bai is an old acquaintance. Let me tell you the truth. The past two years have been good, especially with the bumper harvest of winter wheat this year. No one is willing to sell land at all, but there are more people who want to buy land. The price of the land is
He was exalted, and the first-class land was worth twelve taels of silver."
Li Fa naturally wanted to make money, so he said:
"However, I do have a farm in my hands. Because the owner offended someone and wanted to go back to his hometown, I hurriedly sold it. The price was a little lower than the market price. The land of more than 80 acres is of high quality, plus a large house.
It was just renovated two years ago, and it costs one thousand five hundred taels of silver, so you should pay a one-time payment before selling it."
Because Zhuangzi was not a small business, and he refused to sell it separately, no one could afford the money even after half a month.
Maybe some people can afford it, but if they want to keep the price low, they are not in a hurry to buy it.
"It sounds like a good deal, but let's go and see what it's like. Dad, why don't you take Xiaoshan to see it? If it's compacted, just treat it as a gift from my second sister to your younger brother. Don't follow me.
I scrambled to pay the money."
Seeing that Mrs. Bai Liu was worried about money, Bai Ling said jokingly.
The price of the fields in Zhuangzi is the market price, but Zhuangzi itself is also worth some silver, which adds up to 1,500 taels, and what Bailiu has in his pocket is only a fraction.
"When you go back and ask your mother to give you the money, how can you buy a family property for Xiaoshan?" Bai Sanshu shook his head.
"father."
Bai Ling glanced at Li Fa. It was hard to say too much in front of outsiders, so he asked:
"Didn't I just say that there is a small shop with a backyard and a house near the government school? We want to take a look, but we have to trouble you to arrange for someone to lead the way."
Those who can make human teeth are naturally human beings. Seeing that Bai Ling can make the decision, I can't help but feel a little surprised.
However, this was not their first time dealing with him. Knowing that Bai Ling was a happy master, Li Fa immediately arranged for someone to take Bai Sanshu and his son to see Zhuangzi, while he personally took Bai Ling and others to see the house and shop.
This was not Bai Ling's first visit to the county town, so there was nothing unusual about it. However, Bai Liu and his wife were sitting in the carriage, and from time to time they opened the curtain and looked outside.
If it weren't for the person leading the way in the carriage at the front, I guess they would have been talking excitedly.
"After we buy the property, we will go shopping tomorrow. That girl Bai Shao grew up in the county town, so there is no place she doesn't know about." Bai Ling arranged.
"This county is really bigger than ours, and the people who come and go are dressed better than ours. Even though we don't lack anything at home, I don't know what to buy anymore."
Bai Wei came purely for the fun, and her money-obsessed nature was exposed as soon as she opened her mouth.
"Third sister is reluctant to spend money, so she doesn't have anything to buy." Bai Xing said.
Bai Wei angrily rushed forward to tickle Bai Xing, causing the mother and daughter to burst into laughter. Their laughter spread outside the carriage, attracting many people's attention.
After walking for a while, the carriage stopped at a private house. Li Fa took out the key and opened the courtyard door. Someone probably came to clean it every few days, so the courtyard was still clean. (To be continued)
