Chapter 79
Zhong Xiaowu sighed.

Then he looked at Qian Nanyi seriously and said, "Nanyi, don't worry, I won't let you live a life full of hunger, and I will protect you and take good care of you in the future. suffer."

When Zhong Xiaowu said this, the expression on his face was serious.

Qian Nanyi was very grateful and moved.

Especially when Zhong Xiaowu said this seriously, Qian Nanyi knew that Zhong Xiaowu was not lying.

These are probably Zhong Xiaowu's heartfelt words.

Qian Nanyi pouted, and said with some embarrassment: "I'm afraid I'll be lazy when you say that, let's go back to the town to find Qu Yuanwai, last time I met Qu Yuanwai, he's a very nice guy elder."

Qu Yuanwai also came from Qujia Village, and he was kind to the people in Qujiazhuang, and he was a very good person.

Zhong Xiaowu breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I'm just afraid that people won't get along well with us, so we must not be unlucky."

After all, Zhong Xiaowu has not gone through wind and rain, so he naturally thinks of beautiful things.

Looking at Zhong Xiaowu seriously, Qian Nanyi saw the worry in Zhong Xiaowu's eyes.

Qian Nanyi suddenly realized that he had overlooked a problem.

Looking at Zhong Xiaowu, Qian Nanyi said very seriously: "I want to make some things clear to you. Since we come out to do things, we must be prepared to fail. There is no smooth sailing in the world. If you do things only think about success , If you don’t want to fail, you will never be able to do a good job, and you have to experience twists and turns when doing things.”

Qian Nanyi spoke very seriously.

Zhong Xiaowu's heart skipped a beat, he looked at Qian Nanyi with some surprise, and did not deny what he had just thought.

"Nanyi, I know I was wrong. I have an idea in my heart, and I think everything should go smoothly..." Zhong Xiaowu feels a little guilty. He is so many years older than Qian Nanyi, and he has not thought about things and done things. Qian Nanyi thought clearly and saw clearly, so he was really a little confused.

Qian Nanyi smiled slightly and stretched out his hand to pat Zhong Xiaowu's shoulder and said: "Knowing your mistakes can make you better. You just need to remember what I said. If you do things without any twists and turns, you will be successful. Such success is not It is considered successful, if you have experienced many twists and turns in doing things, such success is success."

These words sound simple, but if you savor them carefully, they contain deep truths.

Zhong Xiaowu nodded and said, "I know Nanyi, I know what to do."

Back to town.

Qian Nanyi and Zhong Xiaowu bought some gifts for meeting in the shop opened in the town, and then asked for directions to find Qu Yuan's family.

His member's house is really the biggest yard in the town.

Located in the middle of the alley in the north of the town, the town has only one street, and Qu Yuanwai's house occupies a large area on the street.

Recently, many shops have been closed in the town, even the only inn was closed, but at this time on the main street, a rice shop was the first to open, and this rice shop belonged to Qu Yuan's family.

The vermilion gate is inlaid with copper nails. In the middle of the gate, the door knocker with the head of a unicorn looks very majestic.

Stepping forward, Qian Nanyi lightly knocked on the door knocker.

After a while, the side door next to the main door opened.

A boy in Tsing Yi, about thirteen or fourteen years old, poked his head out.

The boy saw Qian Nanyi and Zhong Xiaowu, although he saw that they were both children, but seeing how they were dressed, the boy didn't dare to neglect them.

The young man walked out of the door and asked respectfully: "I don't know what's the matter with you two?"

Qian Nanyi smiled slightly and said: "This is my son, we are here to discuss a business with your master, please go in and inform me that the eldest son of the Zhong family in Tianling City is visiting."

As he said that, Qian Nanyi took out some money from the purse and put it in the boy's hand.

The young man got the money, and said happily in his heart: "You two, wait for me and I will go in and report."

Waiting quietly outside, Zhong Xiaowu hesitated for a while and finally said: "Didn't Nanyi say we wanted to hide our identities? Why did you reveal our identities?"

Qian Nanyi smiled strangely and said, "Brother, seeing people is different, and naturally speaking is also different. The members of the canal have seen the world, unlike people in the village. In the village, even if you don't say your identity, as long as the scene It's big enough to shock everyone, but not here. The members of the team are people who have seen the world, how can they be intimidated by a little scene, and your identity is something that many people want to climb. Naturally, Speaking out will cause a different effect, as for exposure and the like, you don’t have to worry about it, our identities cannot be exposed.”

Zhong Xiaowu listened carefully to Qian Nanyi's explanation.

I don't know what to say in my heart.

At this time, the side door opened again, and the boy came out of the yard with a smile, and said excitedly: "My lord, please come in with me, our master is waiting."

Zhong Xiaowu glanced at the boy gratefully, and then followed him into the courtyard.

If his master's yard was placed in this small town, it would naturally be the best yard, but if compared with Zhong's, it is really not enough.

Qian Nanyi just glanced at it lightly, then looked away.

It is a very ordinary house, with about three courtyards, and a lot of flowers and plants are planted in the courtyard, but because the flower planting inside is a bit messy, it doesn't look very good-looking, but for this small town, this courtyard is really rare.

The servant led the two of them from the bluestone path in the yard to the main hall.

As soon as he entered the door, Qian Nanyi saw Master Qu.

Last time Qian Nanyi saw Master Qu, so he knew him.

As soon as he entered the room, Master Qu obviously saw Qian Nanyi, he rubbed his eyes in disbelief, and asked in surprise, "Girl, have we met somewhere?"

The last time he went to Qujia Village to collect grain, Master Qu saw Qian Nanyi. At that time, the people in the village told him how good Qian Nanyi was, and the grain in Qian Nanyi's family was growing really well. , he fell in love, but at that time his master only talked to his old man, and had no communication with Qian Nanyi.

With a slight smile, Qian Nanyi bowed his knees and saluted his master.

"His grandfather has a really good memory. I'm the granddaughter of an old man from Qujia Village." Qian Nanyi said with a smile.

His master laughed when he heard it, and then asked with concern: "How is your grandpa?"

His master is usually busy, and he doesn't pay much attention to the affairs of his family village, so he doesn't know that his old man has passed away.

As soon as he mentioned his grandfather, Qian Nanyi's face became sad: "My grandfather went to Tianling City some time ago, but was beaten to death by the guards."

Every time Qian Nanyi talked about this matter, he couldn't calm down.

His master was very surprised, and said in disbelief: "Your grandfather is really suffering."

His master calmed down, only to realize that he hadn't asked them to sit down yet.

"Please sit down, both of you." The old man hurriedly greeted.

But this time Qian Nanyi did not sit down, but Zhong Xiaowu sat down, and Qian Nanyi stood behind Zhong Xiaowu.

Seeing this posture, Master Qu probably understood, it seems that Qian Nanyi has become Zhong Xiaowu's maid.

But this might be Qian Nanyi's best destination, being a maid is better than starving to death.

Zhong Xiaowu already knew what he should say when he came, and even covered it up for Qian Nanyi, but both of them were satisfied in the end.

Zhong Xiaowu was naturally not afraid of strangers, so everyone said in unison: "Today I came to see the members of Qu, actually I have something to discuss."

As soon as he mentioned that things are business, Master Qu became much more energetic, and when he looked at Zhong Xiaowu, he motioned for Zhong Xiaowu to speak out.

Zhong Xiaowu also said unambiguously: "I heard Nanyi said that his master has a lot of fertile land in Qujiazhuang."

His master nodded: "There are indeed a lot of fertile fields."

Hearing his master's answer, Zhong Xiaowu continued: "I don't know what his master plans to do next? We just went to Qujia Village and asked the people in the village. They didn't plan to renew the lease. What are you going to do next?"

His master suddenly understood.It turned out that Zhong Xiaowu was talking about the land.

In fact, Mr. Qu is also worried about this matter recently. Many people in the village say that they will not rent land next year, and the men will be taken to serve as soldiers, so there is still energy to farm.

So his master is also worried.

Master Qu nodded and said: "Yes, I am also worried about this issue recently. People in the village say that they will no longer rent land. If the villagers do not rent land, my land will only be vacant. After all, it is the same situation in the neighborhood. The men were taken to serve as soldiers, and the rest of the family were women, the old, the weak, the sick and the disabled, and the rest of the people were unwilling to rent land so far away, and they were worried that the officers and soldiers would come again next year."

When his master said this, he looked distressed.

Zhong Xiaowu didn't beat around the bush, and said directly: "I'm here today to tell his master about the land, I don't know if his master plans to sell the land."

Zhong Xiaowu spoke very seriously.

The old man looked at Zhong Xiaowu with some puzzlement. Although he had this plan in his heart, he still couldn't help asking: "Don't tell me you want to buy land. Aren't you afraid that when the time comes to plant grain, the officers and soldiers will come and snatch it?"

Zhong Xiaowu didn't hide this matter and said with a smile: "Of course I'm not afraid. You also know our Zhong family's network. My uncle is a general. As long as my uncle says a word when the time comes, those officers and soldiers will not dare to come."

This is Hong Guoguo's saying that I have a relationship.

Master Zhong sighed, and said: "It's also because of your family's relationship. Even if officers and soldiers come, you don't dare to make trouble. It's different for us little people. Fate...tell me how much money you plan to pay."

Master Qu is very helpless. In fact, no one dares to come to this place now. Let alone three to five years, it will not recover its vitality. By then, it will be equivalent to throwing away money.

Mr. Zhong is not an idiot. He knows that such a thing cannot be done, so he can sell it. Now is the best choice. With such a good opportunity in front of him, Mr. Zhong doesn't want to give up. In fact, he wants to sell the land. The family moved to another place, which was too close to Tianling City.

Although Tianling City is not located in a frontier fortress, Tianling City is an important city. The places where officers and soldiers often visit, the wars continue, and it is impossible for them to live a stable life.

Master Zhong didn't dare to stay here any longer, and lived in fear every day.

It was just selling the land, and I had found buyers before, but those buyers stayed away when they saw the ruins of the village and the village full of women.

Now Zhong Xiaowu has also made it very clear that he does have the strength to dare to buy land here.

With a sigh, Mr. Zhong said: "To be honest, I also want to sell the land more expensive, but in the current situation, no one will buy it if it is too high, and it is not worth it for me if it is too low. Nanyi's grandfather and I are also considered a Local people don't beat around the bush anymore. If you want to buy land for 12 taels of silver per mu, I have a total of about [-] mu of land, which are distributed in Qujia Village and the village next to Qujia Village. As long as you want, I can follow you now. You go to the yamen of Tianling City together to apply for the title deed."

Hearing the land in the old man's hand, Qian Nanyi and Zhong Xiaowu were overjoyed.

More than 100 mu of land, this is all they need.

It's just that Qian Nanyi didn't say anything about the price, she believed that Zhong Xiaowu had plans for this matter.

Sure enough, Zhong Xiaowu smiled and said: "As long as his master sells the land, I will naturally dare to buy it, but at this price...Master, you must know that we are buying all your land at once."

This is very clear, no, large quantities are favored.

What the master said is that there is a price to be changed, so naturally it can be bargained.

He laughed twice, and his master couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He really is a child from Zhong's family, and he is smart.

Master Qu laughed and said, "You also know that my lands are all good lands. If it weren't for the chaos now, in such a situation, in normal peace times, someone would buy them for 15 taels of silver. .”

Zhong Xiaowu didn't deny it, he also looked at the land in Qujia Village, it was indeed all good fertile land.

And the position occupied by his master's land is also the best.

The river in Qujia Village bypasses the village, and there is no flooded land.

Only now, Zhong Xiaowu is not a fool.

With a slight smile, Zhong Xiaowu said: "If it weren't for such a time, I would honestly not want to buy land. Master Qu, you think this is good. You can let me give you one tael per mu of land, 11 taels. If you are willing, we will now It can be done, and I can follow you to Tianling City immediately."

His master was a little dissatisfied when he heard the 11 taels of silver, but it was also his bottom line.

I have to say that Zhong Xiaowu is really good at business, and 11 taels of silver just stepped on his master's line.

After hesitating for a while, his master finally nodded.

He knew that if he missed this village, there would be no store here.

"That's good Mr. Zhong, 11 taels. Although 11 taels feels a little bloody, it's still a deal. I want cash."

Zhong Xiaowu said with a smile: "Of course there is no problem, Tongbao Bank's banknotes can be exchanged."

Qian Nanyi was very happy in his heart, he didn't expect to conclude the matter so quickly, and he was secretly happy.
