Teases the peasant girl to be busy

Chapter 118 Buying a Barren Mountain

Hearing what the two sisters said, Gu Shuang was stunned for a moment: "You two know kung fu? Are you so good? How can you know kung fu?"

Although both of them are loyal to her now, Gu Shuang hasn't had a good understanding of their previous lives!Can't help but ask curiously.

Xin Lan looked at Gu Shuang: "Ms. Hui, the auction taught us a lot of skills in order to be able to fetch high prices. I can read, write, and even do arithmetic."

"I also taught some martial arts. Although it's not very good, a few big men can still beat them."

Gu Shuang looked at the two of them unexpectedly, thinking that the ones who came to meet were those who were self-defense and did not know internal skills, so I had to confirm: "Then do you know internal skills?"

Xin Lan immediately shook her head: "Girl, how can ordinary people know about internal strength? Even if they do, they won't pass it on to slaves, so we won't."

Gu Shuang snorted: "Then, from today onwards, you should practice internal strength first..."

In the next period of time, Gu Shuang passed on the inner strength and mentality to the two people. The two people would not betray her, and they were relieved to pass it on, and then looked at the two of them.

"By the way, I'm going to build a workshop in the village. I'll leave it to Xin Lu to do it. From now on, Xin Lan will follow me. Xin Lu will report your progress to me every day."

After Xin Lu got the task, she was immediately happy, and looked at Gu Shuang: "Don't worry, girl, I will definitely take care of this matter for you."

Early the next morning, Gu Shuang took Xin Lan to Li Zheng's home: "Uncle Li Zheng, are you there?"

Li was looking at Gu Shuang, feeling a little surprised: "Hey, why are you here, girl? I see that you have been very busy recently, what do you want to come to me?"

The second room of Gu's family now, everyone has their own things to do, which is quite different from the villagers of Gu's family village, at least in terms of temperament!

Gu Shuang smiled and looked at Lizheng: "Uncle Lizheng, I'm here to ask you for help. I want to buy that barren mountain over there. I wonder if it's possible?"

"How much money is there per mu?"

Li Zheng looked at Gu Shuang in shock. The barren mountain that Gu Shuang pointed to had at least a thousand acres of land, and he wanted to buy it, and the barren mountain would cost at least one tael of silver per mu.

He coughed twice: "Aren't you kidding? That mountain is so big and the price is very expensive. If you don't buy the mountain, it's there. Everything on the mountain belongs to everyone."

"You can use it too, you don't need to spend so much money."

Gu Shuang smiled: "Uncle Lizheng, this is different. I am going to plant something on the mountain, which requires a large area, and there are many things I want in that mountain."

"Many of them cannot be used by everyone. If I use them alone, I'm afraid it will make others gossip. After all, not everyone in the village wants us to live well."

Li Zheng understood as soon as he heard this. Speaking of which, Gu Shuang's family is rich now, and they are also recruiting workers in the village, and even promised to grow watermelons with them next year.

But some people are jealous of others. This is also human nature. People who used to live worse than themselves turned around in a short period of time, living better than themselves, and far surpassing themselves.

Of course, anyone will feel uncomfortable, so it is still worthy of forgiveness, but those who have always been malicious, needless to say.I figured out what Gu Shuang was worried about.

Li Zheng stopped persuading him, but said tactfully: "The area of ​​the mountain is still very large, and if it is cheap, it is only one tael of silver per mu. The specific price depends on the government's pricing."

Gu Shuang nodded: "Money is not a problem. Uncle Li Zheng doesn't have to worry about me. Since I have already decided to buy it, I am already ready."

Now the second wife of the Gu family needs money and contacts, so there is really no need to be afraid of any family. Gu Shuang was thinking of this before he was ready to take down the barren mountain.

And it can be well developed, and the animals on it have to be cleaned up. Gu Shuang also plans to feed chickens and grow medicinal materials on the mountain!As for the seeds, of course they were redeemed from the system.

Li Zheng saw that he had already said what he had to say, but Gu Shuang still insisted and agreed; "That's fine, I'll go to the government with you!"

Uncle Li drove a group of people to the gate of the official mansion in a carriage, and the group walked in, expressing their intention of coming, and soon someone told the county magistrate about Gu Shuang's visit to the county government.

The county magistrate came in person: "Shuang girl, what are you doing here again?"

Gu Shuang laughed; "I have seen you, you are so free? I just came to buy some land, and I have alarmed you."

Li Zheng was stunned for a moment, the current Gu Shuang is really different, he is so familiar with the county magistrate, the future must be limitless!
The county magistrate was a little amused: "Isn't this just to take care of you, master, what are the two girls doing here?"

Such a proficient tone stunned the master for a moment, but he came back soon: "Come to buy a mountain, Miss Gu Shuang is going to buy that barren mountain near Gu's Village."

"It's about one or two thousand mu of land. In mountainous land, the cheapest is only one tael per mu. If the land is good, it costs 2-3 taels per mu."

When the county magistrate heard this, he laughed immediately: "How can the geology of the barren mountain be good? Well, it's only one tael of silver per mu, and you take a few yamen servants to Gujia Village."

"See how big my barren mountain is?"

It was the first time that the master saw that the county magistrate was so concerned about other people's affairs, so he agreed, and Gu Shuang was amused when he saw that the matter was settled: "Then thank you, sir."

"Your Excellency is such a good official. By the way, I will let Uncle Li drive you back in a carriage. I will not go. I can trust you."

When the county magistrate heard this, he laughed: "It's just right not to go, your Aunt Wen asked you to accompany her to have lunch! Let your little girl accompany you."

Gu Shuang nodded: "Very well, my lord, the girl is retiring."

The master followed Uncle Li with a few officials, and of course Li Zheng went to the barren mountain for surveying, while Gu Shuang took Xin Lan to the backyard, on Mrs. Zhou's site.

When we arrived in the backyard, it was indeed time for lunch. Mrs. Zhou had just prepared the lunch when she saw Gu Shuang coming: "Shuang girls are here, sit down quickly, it's just in time."

Gu Shuang smiled: "I also think it's such a coincidence that I came here!"

As he spoke, he laughed, and Mrs. Zhou's maid gave Gu Shuang a pair of bowls and chopsticks with a wink, and Gu Shuang began to accompany Mrs. Zhou to eat.After lunch.

After resting for half an hour, I headed towards Gu's shop!It's time to negotiate with the old master of the Chen family!
