Go back to ancient times to be a royal merchant
Chapter 51
On the night of the fourth day, Wang Juye carried a small bag and ran to Grandpa Six's house. When he met a joker on the road, Wang Juye smiled, but kept walking.My uncle once said, when you treat someone you don’t like, when you hear a question you don’t like to hear, you just smile. If you do, my uncle will never cheat him.When people in the village met Wang Juye, they saw that he just laughed and didn't answer, and they muttered, "The kid who used to talk a lot, how come he can only laugh after he has been with Xiujin for a long time, don't be stupid." If Wang Juye knew, I'm afraid I'll cry and faint.
Wang Juye is going to lay a floor in his uncle's house. The floor of their house is warm. Running on it with bare feet will not feel cold. The room is also warmer, which is much better than at home. If it is not because of the reunion during the New Year, he would like to grow At Grandpa Six's house.
Naturally, Wang Xiujin couldn't let Wang Juye sleep on the floor. The room was originally a crowded room for two, so he had to put another small bed.Seeing that there was an extra person in the house, Wang Xiubai felt that it was imminent to buy land and repair a house.
After eating the broken dumplings, the two brothers took the money and went to the village chief's house. As for Wang Juye, he didn't go out because there was snowflakes last night. When he got up early today, he obviously felt that the weather was much colder than before. However, Wang Juye was not willing to leave the bright and warm room. He would rather listen to the sixth grandfather's lecture than go outside to suffer from the cold.Wang Xiujin looked at his nephew's thin single clothes and agreed.
Living in the north for a long time, even if you go to the south, you will prepare cotton clothes and thick quilts after winter, but people who have lived in the south for a long time will not prepare too thick winter clothes even if you prepare thick quilts.Wang Xiujin was younger than Wang Juye, and his body was not as tall as Wang Juye's. Wang Juye couldn't fit his clothes, and Wang Juye was much fatter than Wang Xiujin. Even though they were about the same height, they still couldn't wear them.
When the two brothers arrived at the village chief's house, the village chief was a little surprised. The daughter-in-law's first reaction was whether her son had caused trouble at the sixth uncle's house, and she bluntly said what was in her heart.The two brothers quickly shook their heads to show that they hadn't caused any trouble, and they were learning to read with their father at home.The village chief listened to the beauty in his heart, but tried to keep calm on his face, but the upturned corners of his mouth couldn't be suppressed no matter what.
The villagers have a very respectful attitude towards scholars. Since the sixth high school in the village, many families have sold pots and irons to teach their children to read and write. However, for so many years, no one has even passed the rural examination. At first, the sixth sent someone to pick up his family At that time, he also sent some money to ask him to ask Mr. to build a school. The money has been deposited until now, but the school has not yet been built.In addition, there are no famous scholars in the village, so they farm peacefully, and there are one or two high-minded people, but the result is that they study, and the family spends a lot of money, but they don't have any fame. Get close.
The village head was proud that the great-grandson was enlightened by the sixth son, and he followed Wang Xiujin. When the wife came back and said that it was Wang Xiujin who was engaged to the general's mansion, the village head thought there must be other secrets in it. If they broke up this relationship a long time ago, they would be thrown out if they came to the door.The village head felt more and more that it was right to send his great-grandson to Lao Liu's family. If there was no suitable candidate for Wang Xiubai's book boy, he would choose another one to follow Wang Xiubai.
The daughter-in-law backed out when she knew that her child was not in trouble, and the two brothers explained the purpose of coming here. First, they asked if the homestead near their home had been sold. They want to buy it, and their family wants to build a big house.
The village chief could guess that Wang Xiujin made money, but he didn't know how much. During the past few days, the family members asked the great-grandson how much money Wang Xiujin made in the city's shop, but the great-grandson just smiled and couldn't help but smile. The voice is so strict that the family members say that there is no distinction between the inside and the outside of the business, and even if they know how much money they make, they will not borrow it.The great-grandson still didn't speak, and his family disliked him. The village head felt that the great-grandson did the right thing, so he scolded all the people who asked questions. I should have shut up and didn't even know it, I'm really going back as I live.
"It's good to build a house. Then I will help you choose people who can work." The village chief smiled and walked into the house to get the blueprint of the house site.
After seeing the blueprint, Wang Xiujin frowned. There was two acres of low-grade land in the middle of the homestead closest to them. He was not short of money, but he didn't want to have other words in the middle.
The village head knew which family the land belonged to. Thinking about that family, they were quite talkative owners, but even if it was inferior land, not everyone was willing to sell it.Wang Xiujin looked at the drawings in the village again, trying to find other places.Not to mention, he really found a good place.It's not too far from their main house, and it's also close to the river. The homestead is also large, surrounded by several acres of wasteland, which is cheaper than buying other fields. "Is this place still there?"
"At that time, because it was close to the river, no one was willing to buy it. The river swelled a few years ago, and the land was also flooded." Good thing, but if the other party is Wang Xiujin, the village head will dissuade him.
"It's okay if the water rises, just raise the house higher, and use more earth to build the dam." The more I looked at the land, the better it felt, so I immediately laid the foundation. Garden." Although it was much larger than expected, it also saved a lot of trouble.
"Xiu Jin! Think it over, this place is too close to the river." The village chief still dissuaded him.
"Think about it, and here it is." The house was built at the height of their current house, even if it was flooded, they couldn't get in.Wang Xiujin is full of confidence.The village chief kept giving Wang Xiubai his eyes, hoping to be the big brother to persuade his younger brother, but Wang Xiubai shook his head. Since the younger brother wanted to buy it, it was useless for him to persuade him. At worst, when the house was built, it would be fine if there was no house built there.
Seeing that he couldn't persuade him, the village head looked helpless.Wang Xiujin found a desirable place, so he anxiously set a date to go to the city to go through the formalities, and happily left the village chief's house with his elder brother.On the way home, Wang Xiujin had already explained his idea, and even went to the field by the river. Wang Xiubai looked at his younger brother's excitement, and didn't open his mouth to beat him. They transported soil to build a dam. Just do it, the county magistrate nods.However, he agrees with what the younger brother said. If the foundation of the house is built higher, even if the water rises, it will not be flooded into the house.
In the days that followed, Wang Xiujin ran to the place where the homestead was settled every day, how much he walked, thinking about what the house would look like after it was built.Shaking his head with his little hands behind his back, Wang Juye, who was running around with Wang Xiujin, couldn't help but sneezed, what's wrong with my uncle?It's okay to run to the river to blow the cold wind.
When the deed was in hand, the smile on Wang Xiujin's face deepened, and he began to get busy with building the house.In his previous life, before the end of the world, he was considered a small rich man, but he still couldn’t afford the so-called river-view house or sea-view house. In this life, the house by the river was so cheap that he didn’t need any money. Wang Xiujin thought it was a big deal. .Asked shopkeeper Wu to get some weeping willow saplings, and went to several workshops selling bricks. Wang Xiujin, who thought he was not short of money before, was frightened by the high price of bricks. Ten bricks are one or two. Is it selling bricks or stealing money? ah?
Wang Xiubo found out that his younger brother had recently changed his excitement about building a house before, and his face was almost wrinkled. After calling Wang Juye to ask him carefully, he found out that his younger brother was frightened by the price of bricks.Wang Xiubai had never built a house before. After he and his mother went to the capital, they lived in that big house. They didn’t know the price of bricks, but according to what Wang Juye said, the price of bricks has always been the same without any change. There is no such thing as cheap.Wang Xiubo only thought that his younger brother didn't have enough money, so he wanted to persuade his younger brother that there was no rush to build the house. Anyway, the contract was in his hand, and he could build it anytime.
After Wang Xiubai returned to the house, he saw his younger brother writing something in a hurry, so he didn't step forward to disturb him, thinking to persuade his younger brother later.Turning around and leaving the room, he met his worried younger sister, "Xiu Jin is writing something, but is there something wrong?"
"I've seen him worrying and suffering these two days. What happened to him?" Wang Xiuyun didn't know that her younger brother had bought land to build a house, and thought he had encountered a difficult problem.Wang Xiubo thought that his family would know sooner or later, so he told his sister about Wang Xiujin buying the land and being scared by the price of bricks.Wang Xiuyun pursed her lips, frowned, then turned around and went back to the house. After a while, she entered her younger brother's room with a small box.
"Sister? What's the matter?" Wang Xiujin just finished writing the envelope, when he saw his elder sister coming in with a serious face, he was a little puzzled.
"You take this for money." Wang Xiuyun thought that her younger brother had no money and was worried about not being able to build a house, so she took the shop contract that her younger brother had given her.
Wang Xiujin took the box and found out what was inside, with a slightly dazed expression on his face, "Sister, I'm not short of money, what are you giving me this for?"
"I've heard that there is no money to build a house, so I'll take it soon." Wang Xiuyun turned around after speaking and was about to leave.
Wang Xiujin hurriedly grabbed the eldest sister, "Oh, my dear sister, who said that I have no money to build a house." Wang Xiujin hurriedly put the deeded house in the box in the hands of his sister, "Hurry up and put it away, and when you see me and don't want the consequences, you will leave." officer."
Wang Xiuyun still refused, and she firmly believed that her younger brother was trying to comfort her, saying that she would give the deed to her brother in exchange for money.Wang Xiujin cut off the conversation and asked in detail what was going on, and when he understood, he immediately annoyed himself and Wang Juye. "Sister, it's not that I can't afford bricks, but I think the price of bricks is too high. Ten or twenty bricks is too expensive."
After hearing the price of bricks, Wang Xiuyun was also surprised, she didn't know if the price of bricks was set reasonably, but she felt that it was too expensive just by hearing it.One tael, how many things can be bought, enough for them to spend a lot of time, but they can only buy ten bricks, this... "It's too expensive, we don't build brick houses."
Wang Juye is going to lay a floor in his uncle's house. The floor of their house is warm. Running on it with bare feet will not feel cold. The room is also warmer, which is much better than at home. If it is not because of the reunion during the New Year, he would like to grow At Grandpa Six's house.
