Chapter 48 Buying Land ([-])

After hearing shopkeeper Sun's description, Li Xin was quite satisfied with that Zhuangzi.Mountains may not be useful to others, but she can use them.There are still many things that can be grown in the mountains, such as corn, peppers, sweet potatoes and the like.In fact, it is better to grow peppers in mountainous areas, because the peppers grown in mountainous areas are less prone to spoilage.Besides, you can also plant some fruit trees, or peanuts, taro, jicama, etc. Although they are not considered food, they are also economic crops.

Even if the mountainous land is not fertile, tea trees and the like can be planted!The owner of that house asked for 500 taels of silver. The top-quality paddy field has more than 200 mu, and one mu of ten taels of silver is more than 2000 taels. One thousand four hundred taels, two hundred mu of mountain land costs five taels of silver per mu, which is 400 taels of silver.This adds up to 1000 taels of silver.The other money is naturally the money for the 400 acres of fruit trees and the houses built.And after all, it is Zhuangzi, there is a wall around it, and the fields inside are connected together, so it is easy to manage. Naturally, it is a little more kneeling than simply buying fields.

The price is still very fair. Shopkeeper Sun said that there are still quite a few houses inside, all of which are for the servants in the village.And the small courtyard with two entrances for the master's family is even more beautifully built, using good materials and planting some famous flowers and plants, which is very beautiful.The [-] acres of fruit trees have been planted for several years, and it is time to put them into production.

If the owner was not in a hurry to spend money, he would not be willing to sell such a Zhuangzi.

Li Xin felt that the price was acceptable, since she could afford the money anyway.She also asked Shopkeeper Sun to make an appointment with the family, and she also went to see the Zhuangzi, and if it was really good, it would be settled.For the time being, they haven't bought it yet, so Li Xin didn't tell Wen Hao and them, and they'd better wait to see it.

Two days later, shopkeeper Sun sent a waiter to pick him up, and Li Xin packed up his things and went out with Yuexiang and Yueting.All the money at home is placed in the bracelet, and if it looks suitable, you can pay directly.Shopkeeper Sun also went with him.

After running for more than half an hour, the carriage finally arrived at the Zhuangzi.Zhuangzi has convenient transportation here, not far from the official road, and the road from the official road to Zhuangzi has been repaired by the owner of Zhuangzi. It is very flat and spacious, not worse than the official road at all.There are also some houses and fertile fields around Zhuangzi, and it looks like a harmonious scene.There is a river beside Zhuangzi, the water flow is fast, and the river course is relatively wide. This river alone is enough to irrigate the fertile fields in the surrounding areas.

Chuang Tzu is surrounded by an earthen wall, blocking the view from the outside.

When you enter Zhuangzi, you can see large tracts of fertile land. At this time, the autumn harvest is over and new grain has not been planted, so you can only see the original color of the land.Li Xin walked and watched, and carefully checked the soil. The fields are very good.A part of the fertile land next to the river still has some sandy soil, which is good for growing rice and potatoes.Moreover, Zhuangzi is next to the river, so irrigation is also very convenient.

The soil in the mountains is also good. Although it can't be compared with good land, it is still good.

Li Xin also went in to have a look at the [-]-acre orchard. It had been planted for several years. The fruit trees were all lush and full of green shade.There are many types of fruit trees, and almost all the common fruits in these places are planted.I want to come to spring when it blooms, it must be full of rosy clouds, it is very beautiful!Li Xin even found a piece of pineapple, that is, pineapple.Her favorite fruit in her previous life was pineapple, but she has never seen it since she came here!I thought it wasn't there, but I didn't expect to see it here.

Li Xin was surprised, but even shopkeeper Sun had never seen this kind of thing, so it's not widely cultivated here!After asking the owner, I found out that a good friend of the owner was a sailing ship, and he brought some of these things back from overseas, so he gave some to his friend as a gift.

The owner of Zhuangzi was eating well, so he planted a few trees.Unexpectedly, the climate here is suitable, and it grows very well. It has been planted for the past few years, and a large area has been reproduced.

"On weekdays, it's eaten at home, but I haven't taken it out for sale." The owner of Zhuangzi said with a smile.Thinking about it, I was grateful for the kindness of my friends, so I planted it!I didn't even think about making money with it.

After looking around, the master invited shopkeeper Sun and sister Li Xin to rest inside the house.Li Xin carefully observed the small courtyard with two entrances. It was indeed very exquisitely built. The house is small and exquisite, with the characteristics of Jiangnan.Apricot Blossom, Misty Rain, Jiangnan.Small bridges, flowing water, and people.I'm afraid it is the portrayal of this house.

It is said that there are two entrances, but it is also matched with a large garden. The area of ​​each entrance is not small. In addition to the house, it is planted with flowers and grass, and the water is flowing. The beauty is exquisite, but it has some garden characteristics.The garden is even more beautiful. The scenery inside is well arranged, and the scenery changes every step of the way.

A corridor is built around the garden, and you can walk in the corridor to enjoy the flowers.There are also cobbled paths in the garden, and the scenery is picturesque along the way.The area of ​​the garden is not very large, but it makes people feel that they can't finish walking.The flowers and trees are high and low, and there are all kinds of flowers. There are also flowers and trees such as hibiscus as hedges. Walking among them, blocking a lot of sight, I feel that the area of ​​the garden has become larger.

In the middle of the garden is a two-story water pavilion with windows on all sides and a good view.The first floor is a place for people to play, and the second floor is a few cabins for rest.Lotuses are planted all over the lake. Although there are only some disastrous lotus leaves and lotus pods, it can still feel the beauty of tranquility.There is a corridor leading directly from the shore to the water pavilion. Walking on the corridor, you can pick lotus pods with your hands.

There are many kinds of flowers and trees in the garden, but they don't look complicated, but beautiful just right.There are rockery ponds, pavilions and waterside pavilions.Willows, green bamboos, peonies and peonies abound.There will also be some spider plants hanging on the corridor, with striped leaves and occasional small white flowers among them. There is a kind of deep tranquility in the courtyard, deep and peaceful, like a fairyland in Taoyuan after the hustle and bustle.

Surrounded by the scent of sweet-scented osmanthus, like a light mist gauze, it makes this place more like a fairyland.Occasionally, I saw a few clusters of chrysanthemums under the fence, the flowers were scorching, reclusive and fragrant.

After walking around, Li Xin fell in love with this place even more, presumably the owner is also an elegant person who knows how to enjoy himself!After turning around, I sat down in the hall, and the servants served jasmine tea, and the small white flowers stretched out in the cup, as if they were slowly opening.The silver needle tea is also slowly stretching, the silver needle is a little bit, like a lotus flower standing arrow.The tea soup is green, as if the green bamboo leaves outside the window are also reflected inside.

Li Xin didn't counter the price either, he found a middleman, signed a contract, and then went to the Yamen to complete all the formalities.After getting the house deed and the land deed, Li Xin also gave the bank note to the owner.
