The wife of a woman collecting herbs cannot be bullied

Chapter 583

Or go to a lot of places to exchange for copper coins. Now that one or two feet of silver can be exchanged for 1000 taels in the market, it can be exchanged for two to three hundred taels more than the official price of 2000 taels, and it can be exchanged for 500 taels. .Anyway, the copper coins will still be one-to-one at that time, otherwise the people will not agree. "

"Hahaha..." Shi Chuying kissed Chu Xu hard, laughed a few times, then covered her mouth, and whispered: "You still have a good brain. Why can't I figure out these tricks? "

Chu Xu curled up his mouth and said, "That's because you've used all your brains on making money, so naturally you don't bother to think about these little tricks!" He didn't dare to say, "Yingying, you don't have such a fine hair brain', or he would have to sleep on the floor.

Shi Chuying looked at her son, who had already fallen asleep after eating, so she handed him to Chu Xu, tidied up her clothes, and the two put their son in the cradle.

Shi Chuying pulled Chu Xu to discuss.

"Let's talk about our family's silver first. How do you plan?" Shi Chuying took a snail pen and wrote a Chu character on the paper, and wrote a silver tael.

Chu Xu also sat upright and began to think seriously.His slender fingers tapped on the table lightly, making a leisurely 'beep, beep' sound, but Shi Chuying didn't rush him, she had to think about her own money.

"In this way, take out 5000 taels, and I will ask people to divide them into several batches, and exchange them for copper coins from different places. I don't expect to earn or not, at least I can't lose for nothing;

Second, now that there are fewer people and more land, the land price is still cheap. I think it will take less than ten years for the land price to go up a round. I think I can spend 1 taels to buy more Zhuangzi and sacrifice fields. Well, our family also It's time to add some sacrificial fields. "

Shi Chuying now understands the importance of land property.

No matter how well a person is doing now, if he has no land in his hands, if something happens in the future, he will not even have a place to support himself, and he will become a floating weed.If there is land, at least you can grow some food and vegetables, at least you won't starve to death.

But if you don't even have some fields, you can only beg for food...

Therefore, those who coax farmers to sell their ancestral land are all daring, and those farmers who are moved by the wealth in front of them and give up their last one-third of an acre of land will starve to death one day.

As the saying goes, although a golden bowl is easy to hold, a porcelain bowl can last a long time.

Such a simple truth, but there are always people who don't understand it!
It's just, "Isn't the sacrificial field in our mansion allocated by the Ministry of Internal Affairs?" Shi Chuying still remembered that when she read the account book, it was near the clan's sacrificial field.

Apart from the imperial mausoleum, that piece of land is surrounded by the sacrificial fields of the clan and other families. In name, it belongs to each mansion, but in fact, it is managed by people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the clan, and the tax collected does not fall into the hands of each mansion,' Lest the ancestors not get the best sacrifice'.

"Those are only the most basic parts. Now that we have been promoted to nobles, the Ministry of Internal Affairs will not allocate additional land for sacrifices, but will only give tax-free shares. We can buy them elsewhere, and we will keep the profit. Those from the Ministry of Internal Affairs Don't count on it."

Shi Chuying didn't expect it at first, anyway, she didn't see the income of Jitian in the account book this year.

"Where is it suitable to buy?"

"Of course I bought it in a place that is convenient for you and me to manage. If it is too far away, it will belong to someone else." Chu Xu pondered for a while, pointed to the 'Grange' and said: "There are a few places that can be considered, and you can also refer to them for details.

One is around Wangshan County. The people there are very familiar with you. I think it is similar to your hometown. It would be best to buy there. We will often go there in the future; also, when I went to Lianzhou last time, Afterwards, I heard from the manager that the fields in the north are generally fertile, but the weather is colder and there are few people. It is a good place, but I can buy some there, anyway, it is not far from Wangshan County. "

Shi Chuying nodded, she also had the same intention.Now she has some spare money, but she can buy a large piece of land and build a big village.

In fact, she still wants to buy some at Lianhua Mountain, um, it belongs to Miss Bai...

"Where is the festival to buy?"

Chu Xu thought for a while, "Sacrificing the land is considered an ancestral property, and it is usually bought in the ancestral home. I think it is better to forget it in the capital, why not buy it in the old capital? Seriously, we are all from the old capital, and no one can say anything about buying the ancestral property there. Come, and the price is quite good."

Since the old Beijing was regarded as the accompanying capital by Emperor Changping, it has never been like an accompanying capital, but has been reduced to a second-rate one.Without him, this place is the pain of the Chu people, and no one is willing to open up the painful memory of the whole country, so everyone involuntarily chooses to forget this place.

Even the Supreme Emperor didn't like to live here, but went to live in the Royal Garden.It has to be said that Chu Xu's plan still depends on Pu.

But after all, the old capital has hundreds of years of background. Not only the current dynasty, but also the previous dynasty, the former dynasty, the former dynasty and even further dynasties used it as the capital. Although it is now second-rate, all walks of life However, the mature and perfect system accumulated in all aspects is not something that the capital can match overnight.

Therefore, if you don’t dislike this place, it’s a good plan to buy property in Old Beijing...

In this new year, there are no firecrackers and fireworks, no bright red blessing characters, no festive and gorgeous dresses and noisy banquets. All families just pay New Year's greetings at their own homes and have a reunion dinner.

The same goes for Shi Chuying and their family.

Fortunately, there are many people in the mansion this year, not only the little brother Zhao, but also the elder Wuming Taoist, it can be regarded as a relatively reunion New Year.

Shi Chuying hugged her son, and the two generations of disciples went to the courtyard of the unknown Taoist priest to salute the master (master) and congratulate the new year.Brother Zhao got a gift bag from his master as lucky money.

Shi Chuying was a little sour.The master is wearing a new robe of azure color, the cuffs and collar are embroidered with silver and white auspicious clouds, and the feet are new shoes and socks, all made by the apprentice himself, but the master is biased!
Master Wuming stroked his long beard and said with a smile: "...one cannot be perfect, one has to be short of something. Now that you have a son, you can't take the lucky money."

Shi Chuying didn't really want the lucky money, but she didn't want to give her master to someone else, even though this other person was her son.I don't know if this counts as a favor...

On the second day of the new year, when a married daughter returns to her natal home, everyone who is nearby must go there.

This was the first time for Chu Xu to return to her natal family with Shi Chuying as a son-in-law to pay New Year's greetings, and Chu Xu attached great importance to it.He personally inspected the gifts presented by the stewards one by one, picked and picked, and chose again, before finally deciding on it.
