Chapter 443： look at the ground

   Within two days after Mu Yangling took over Fan Zijin's business, he began to ask people to inquire about Zhuangzi outside Lin'an City.

Because she suddenly found out that they were spending a lot of money, Qi Haoran ran out every day, either drinking and running horses with his former friends, or running around on the street, and by the way, he helped Li Jinghua inspect the shop.

The silver notes in the box are swish flowers. At this rate, they will be able to sit and eat in less than half a year.

Mu Yangling didn't know what Qi Haoran was doing, but she guessed that it was related to Qi Xiuyuan's event, so she didn't ask.

Don't ask, but you have to make money.

These businesses under Fan Zijin look good now, but it will take at least two months to make money, and the cost will be wiped out before it is officially profitable.

But she is not good anymore and relies on Fan Zijin for money, so Mu Yangling decided that it is best to buy the fields before the spring planting.

In business, she can only manage the ledger, and she has no good ideas, but she has a lot of ideas for farming, and it is very sustainable. Since she wants to make money, of course she chooses the best one.

Mu Yangling changed clothes and went out early in the morning. Mrs. Xu saw her smile and asked, "Brother and sister are going to Quanju Building again?"

Mu Yangling paused slightly, nodded with a smile, "Second sister-in-law is going out too?"

Xu smirked and said reluctantly, "I made an appointment with a few wives to go to the silver building to see the jewelry."

"Then I wish the second sister-in-law a happy shopping, I'll go first."

Xu opened his mouth and wanted to say that the two would go together, but seeing Mu Yangling's indifferent expression, his face was not thick enough to raise it.

Mrs. Xu watched Mu Yangling leave, as if a stone was blocked in her heart, she turned her head to the girl and said, "Go and tell the wife, just say that the fourth grandma is gone, I can't stop it."

Although she is also jealous of Li and Mu, but Qi Haoran is so strong, she feels that since the two sides have gone their separate ways, there is really no need to provoke them any more, anyway, the father-in-law is on their side.

Moreover, Qi Xiuyuan and Qi Haoran both joined the army, which is different from the second and third masters who took the imperial examinations. Even if they couldn't love each other because of fundamental contradictions, it would be better if they could live together peacefully, so why bother to provoke them all the time?

But she had to listen to her mother-in-law's orders, and Xu Shi probably guessed that her mother-in-law was interested in their money.

The Qi family can only be regarded as a middle-class family, and the father-in-law has been in the position of the imperial censor for nearly ten years. He is not pure and innocent as an official, but he can be regarded as a clean and honest family. It's really not that rich. If it was before, everyone had lived like this, and there would be no complaints.

But Lee and Murray came.

Li didn't say that she was a daughter of an aristocratic family. Even if she fell down, there were still many good things. Only the different jewelry she wears every day can be seen. There are also those fabrics, some of which can't even be bought with money. After a long time in the capital, they have already passed them and entered the upper class.

You must know that they have always only been able to get along with middle-class families of the same rank. They have never been invited to banquets like the Shu family and the Yuan family, and the Yan family, who has always been known for being expensive, also sent a message to the Li family.

You must know that Taishi Yan is one of the three masters. In this world, he is one of those who can point to the emperor's nose and get a gold medal to avoid death. In the past, the Qi family could not even touch the door of the Yan family.

That's fine for Mrs. Li. Mrs. Mu, who originally thought she was a rural bun, was not too bad. Although she wore very little jewelry, as long as she wore it, it was all fine, and now she even helps Fan Zijin manage the business.

But even so, Xu's jealousy is jealous, but she doesn't want to provoke them.

Judging from Qi Haoran's attitude towards the father-in-law, the two brothers are afraid that they don't care much about the father, which annoys them. One of the top officials in the frontier is still a leader, and he wants to know who wins and who loses.

So when Xu Shi faced Li Shi and Mu Shi, he always lowered his body unconsciously.

Mu Yangling went directly to the restaurant after leaving the Qi Mansion. After changing a carriage at the restaurant, she went out of the city directly through the back door. This time, she went to see a village outside the city.

introduced Yagong riding a donkey to the side, waiting for Mu Yangling to get off the carriage and rushing up, saying: "Madam, look at this area, there are 20 acres in total, all of which are high-quality land."

Lichun was dissatisfied and said: "This is too small, doesn't it mean that there is a Zhuangzi? What kind of Zhuangzi is still being built with only 20 acres of land?"

Yagong smiled and said, "Young lady doesn't know, this village is built on the mountainside, you see it's there."

Li Chun widened his eyes and said, "Isn't that a mound? It turned out to be a mountain!"

No wonder Lichun was surprised, there are many hills in the south, this one is a small hill, only a thatched hut was built halfway up the waist, and the surrounding land was what he said was 20 acres of land.

Emperor Ya said embarrassedly, "Don't look at this small mountain, girl, in fact, there is a lot of income. The previous owner planted fruit trees on top of it, and there is income every year."

"But we bought several hundred acres of land there. This is only twenty acres, which is too little. We are going to build a large village." Lichun said dissatisfied.

Yagong glanced at Mu Yangling's face carefully, and said, "Girl, this is Lin'an City, which is different from the Northland. Not to mention Lin'an City, the fields in the south of the Yangtze River are all precious, so this piece of land goes out. There are very few sales, unless a big family encounters a big problem and wants to sell their business, but even if they do, we don’t have the ability to start.

Yagong explained: "You must know that the land that sells food is now retail households, one mu or two mu, east and west, and it is difficult to gather them together."

Mu Yangling walked along the ridge for a while, then squatted down and picked up the clods in the field and crushed them.

Mu Yangling clapped his hands and got up, and asked, "How much are they asking for?"

"Fourteen taels of silver per acre." Yagong Horse Road.

Lichun and Gu Yu were speechless and looked at each other. It was too expensive. In Hanzhong Mansion, four taels of silver could buy an acre of high-quality land.

Mu Yangling is also bleeding in his heart, which is too expensive, especially when there is a contrast.

But she also knew that the land in Lin'an was expensive, so she thought about it and said, "It's too expensive, you should try to lower the price with them. Last time someone told me that retail investors only need twelve taels."

"Madam, this is 20 acres connected together, you see that the river walks half a circle around this piece of land..."

Mu Yangling smiled and said: "For me, one mu of land is a retail investor, and 20 mu is also a retail investor. Maybe I have lived in the north for a long time. Unless there are hundreds of acres of land, for me, it is a retail investor. "

Mr. Ya choked, there are so many lands in this Northland?

Lichun said immediately: "Don't believe me, my wife's family's dozens of hectares of land are all connected together. At first glance, they all belonged to their own family. Now that I suddenly see such a small piece of land, even if I know it's because of the low price of Lin'an City. You can't change it for a while."

Gu Yu continued, "Also, there is no one that costs two taels of silver all at once."
