Traveling to Daliang Kingdom starts from falling into the water

Chapter 790 Don’t Be Too Greedy

In these days, if a scholar was branded as disloyal, unfilial, or unrighteous, his entire family would be disgraced, and he would undoubtedly be severing his own path.

Supporting the clan children to study is actually not in conflict with purchasing sacrificial fields. The latter is for the benefit of future generations, while the former is also for the benefit of future generations.

"So you two are really determined to provide enlightenment for the children in the village. If there are any good students, you will support them to take the imperial examinations?"

"Of course, is this a joke?" Gu Wenxuan shook his head, "You do the math, we two brothers definitely won't take concubines, no matter how many children we have, how many can we have?
I am not only a child from the village or the clan, but also a servant's child. As long as the child has a talent for studying, my husband and I will eliminate the slavery and provide for him/her.

Otherwise, the workshop should not set up a primary school, just to train more children who can write and count, and to find out if there are any seeds of reading."

Gu Erlang was speechless.

As expected, his silly brother and his wife were secretly planning something big. "Besides these, what else have you prepared? Tell me the truth."

That's too much. Gu Wenxuan thought about it and picked one thing to say frankly, "Like sacrificial land. When I pass the imperial examination, I will definitely buy sacrificial land, which will not be less than a hundred acres."

"anything else?"

"That will depend on the next step after purchasing the sacrificial land. At least I have to wait until my wife gives birth to my daughter. Otherwise, I won't be thinking about these things right now."

My daughter again.

Row!
Gu Erlang glanced at his silly brother meaningfully, then withdrew his gaze and pointed at the list on the table, "You can choose from all of these?"

"Where?"

"I guess not." Gu Erlang said with a smile, "Once County Magistrate Huang falls, you guys will get rich."

indeed!

It was undoubtedly a feast.

After County Magistrate Huang closes the case, all the prominent and powerful people in Qingyang County will join in the carnival party to divide up the Huang family's property.

Even if the county government sold the Huang family assets at a normal price, it would still be a great bargain. County Magistrate Huang bought a lot of properties during his tenure, and almost all of them were high-quality properties.

Moreover, these high-quality industries were not noticeable before County Magistrate Huang's collapse. With his fall, his ability to abuse his power for personal gain was completely exposed to the public.

As far as he knew, to date, the Huang family's fixed assets were not limited to Qingyang County and its hometown, but were spread throughout the entire prefecture and counties, and there were also quite a few in Zhending Prefecture.

However, the properties in the prefecture city and Zhending prefecture are now held by his senior brother and will not be sold for the time being. They will be left for the prefect, the co-prefect and several other officials first.

But, what about him and his wife? Do they want to buy it?

His eldest brother had a misunderstanding on one point. Zhao Laoer would definitely ask his second son to find him in the next two days, but this was definitely not Zhao Laosan's intention.

Even if Zhao Laosan had a hundred guts, he would not dare and would not push the couple to stand in front, unless the couple themselves were willing to be the shield of the Zhao family.

Just based on the house in the imperial city under the name of his wife, it is of great significance. Not to mention Zhao Laosan, even Zhao Laoda would not dare to act rashly.

It can be said that if he and his wife want to know which industries the Huang family has in the prefectural city and Zhending Prefecture, not to mention Qian Tongzhi, the prefect would give them some face.

This is the charm of power.

"Don't be too greedy." Gu Erlang saw his silly brother still hesitantly looking at the contents of the list without saying a word, and he was frightened and reminded him quickly. Don't be greedy!
Gu Wenxuan nodded quickly, "In Qingyang County, my husband and I already have shops and farms, so it's not appropriate for us to pick more, but we can't refuse it either.

Being too aloof will inevitably lead to being ostracized and isolated. Our family is poor, so we can only follow the crowd. Let's just choose someone who is neither at the top nor at the bottom.

This ranking means that you can choose one big shop, two small shops, one big manor and two small manors within Qingyang County.

The locations of these farms and shops of the Huang family are all very good, and the production and rental are also considerable. You can pick any one you want. Please help me find a shop or farm for our parents.

I plan to take this opportunity to spend the cash that our father has. If the money is left in their hands, they will spend it. It is better to let them collect the rent."

That's the truth, Gu Erlang agreed: "How much less is the price?"

"Not very high. It will definitely be much less than what we would pay at a dental clinic. I don't know the exact price yet. You can start by calculating based on a 10% discount from the market price here."

"Then our parents budgeted 3,000 taels of silver?"

"Okay, we can talk about it later if there are more or less. It's not a big deal." Gu Wenxuan suddenly thought of something, "The important thing is that we order it before tomorrow night."

So fast?
Isn't the case closed until the day after tomorrow?
"Also, don't forget, this opportunity is rare. If we don't take advantage of it, it will benefit those people. Don't forget to have a good discussion with sister-in-law tonight.

It's not about calculating the silver, it's about choosing the best shop and farm, and ordering it before tomorrow night. Don't worry, I'm not giving you the silver for free, I'm lending it to you, we're brothers, so we should settle accounts clearly, right?

By the way, brother, in addition to these things, there is another important thing. I can get a vacant position for a deputy constable and two strong squads from my senior brother, and they will also be booked before tomorrow night."

Gu Erlang held his forehead with his hand, "Can't you speak more slowly, one thing at a time, slowly?"

"No!" Slow down so that you can show your eloquence? What a joke! Gu Wenxuan shook his head with a smile, "I've been out for a while, and my sister-in-law will be back soon.

I'm worried about leaving my wife alone in the room. What do you think? Should I ask Uncle Ma which vacancy he wants first? "

"Wait a minute, let me think about it first." Gu Erlang let go, waved one hand, and rubbed his brow with the other, "Maybe I owe you a big favor?"

"No, this isn't a big favor."

"Then leave one vacant position for our Gu family. Don't mention the deputy detective. Ask my father-in-law if he wants the remaining vacant position.

His status as a Zhuangban has delayed his grandson's imperial examination. Let him be. Anyway, you two still remember him well. If he doesn't want him anymore, it would just be a favor to the Zhou family. No way!

You two can't do the Zhou family a favor for nothing. Our great grandfather of the Gu family can control the clan members, but the old head of the Zhou family cannot.

The head of the Zhou family is separated from your father-in-law by several houses, and there is also your aunt getting in the way. Forget it, it's better to have less trouble than more, so it's better not to mention it.

So that if someone from the Zhou family comes to you and your wife for help, it will be difficult to refuse. If you refuse, you will offend innocent people for no reason. We are the only family left. Let's see what my father-in-law will say."

"Okay, I'll leave it to you. We'll talk about it tomorrow night."

"What's the hurry?" Gu Erlang quickly grabbed Gu Wenxuan who was trying to escape, "We haven't finished talking yet, why are you running away? Who should our Gu family choose?"

"I need to pee urgently, brother."

"Hold it! Who should go?"

"Whatever, as long as it's not Gu Yangwen's room, anyone can go. I'm in a hurry to pee so I won't talk to you anymore. You should pack up and go back to the front to accompany the child."
