Poisonous Peasant ‘Concubine’

The man pulled his father and daughter-in-law to kowtow to them. He had heard what Liu Baoren said before. The family chose their children to be book boys for the sons. Separate, can only risk begging them.

"Flood disaster in the south?" Yan Shengrui frowned in disbelief, then quickly got rid of the unnaturalness, and turned to look at Ling Jingxuan: "What do you think?"

"It's fine for you to be in charge."

"Then buy them all."

The short conversation quickly decided the fate of the family. The adults surnamed Zhou obviously did not expect it to go so smoothly. They were a little too stupid to react. Even Xie En forgot. The mother didn't respond, she knelt down and said, "Thank you two gentlemen."

"Thank you two masters, thank you, thank you??"

Under his leadership, the family was so excited that they cried and kowtowed to them. Yan Shengrui waved his hands indifferently, and hugged Ling Jingxuan to the eldest child: "How many relatives do you have? What's their names?"

He noticed just now that Ling Jingxuan's eyes fell on this child, obviously he was attracted to him.

"Back to the master, the youngest is a mother named Long Zhang. She is twenty-seven years old this year. She can weave and do embroidery, and she can basically do the crops. My name is Long Dashan, and I am nine years old."

With the example of the Zhou family, it seemed that the thin boy seemed to see hope. He dragged his mother who was crying frequently and knelt in front of them. The nine-year-old child was already an adult, and Long Dashan's performance was also very mature and sensible. Ling Jingxuan looked at him carefully for a moment, then turned his head and said, "Brother Han, what do you think of this child being a book boy and servant for Tie Wazi?"

Compared with Ling Wen and Ling Wu, Tie Wazi is softer and more introverted. His book boy must be older than him first, and he must know how to take care of his daily life. It is his age that he is interested in Long Dashan. Mature and sensible, to put it poorly, how many children from poor families are still ignorant at the age of nine these days?

"Will this be too big?"

Han Fei, who was named, walked over to look at Long Dashan, frowned and said hesitantly, he had never bought anyone before, and he only thought of what Ling Jingxuan said at the beginning, the book boy should be about the same age as the child, the iron baby is on the New Year's Day. Li is only five years old, but this child is nine years old, and subconsciously, he feels that it is not suitable.

"Hehe... It's not a big deal. Tie Wazi is more timid and more shy and introverted. His book boy can take care of him when he is older, right?"

"Right."

As soon as he said it, Han Fei couldn't help nodding again. Ling Jingxuan smiled and said, "If you don't mind, just buy them."

"Sure, I can rest assured about the person you choose, but—"

Han Fei looked at Long Dashan's mother in embarrassment. It wasn't that he was reluctant to buy more people, it was just that the two big men, didn't they want to let people gossip when they bought a woman back?

"Hehe... Mrs. Long Zhang will stay at my house to help Mrs. Song, are you willing?"

Seeing his scruples, Ling Jingxuan turned to the mother and son with a smile.

"Mother, is this okay?"

Long Dashan didn't answer right away, but asked in a low voice, holding his mother's hand. He was a dutiful son at a young age.

"Dare to ask how far this old man's house is from here?"

Long Zhang looked at them cringingly, and asked a little hesitantly. She knew that this was the best outcome, but she couldn't help it. What mother would want to be separated from her biological son?

"I'm not a master, don't call me master, my house is about 100 meters away from the door. If you are willing to stay here at Jingxuan, your mother and son can meet every day in the future."

Han Fei is also a father, so he can understand Long Zhang's mood to some extent, and he doesn't feel that he has overstepped, but his attitude is very kind "Then thank you a few masters, our mother and son will definitely take care of the young master with all our hearts and work hard to live. repay you."

I have never met such a kind master before. Mrs. Long Zhang took his son to kowtow to them gratefully. The purchase was almost decided. Ling Jingxuan walked back and nodded to Liu Baoren, only to see him wave his hand and wait outside. His subordinates took those people out one after another, leaving a dozen people who were selected to stand in front of them lined up.

"Brother Ling, there are a total of five adult men, five women, and two children. An adult man is still eight taels of silver, and a woman is six taels, a total of seventy taels of silver. Even if the two children are given to you, what do you think? ?"

Knowing that the two children are the most important things, Liu Baoren deliberately used them as a lucky draw, which not only sold his face, but also blocked his way of bargaining. Ling Jingxuan smiled, looked at him meaningfully, and saw that he had a heart. Jin'er was furious, and after a while, Yan Shengrui took out a hundred taels of silver and handed it to him: "Don't play tricks with us, as long as your people are good, we are willing to spend more money."

"Yeah, when he said that he was so ruthless, Liu Baoren only felt ashamed and panicked. He took the bank note and determined the amount, and then took out three taels of silver and offered it with both hands. Before leaving, Liu Baoren suddenly turned around and said: "Brother Ling, I wonder if you are interested in buying land? "

"Buy land?"

Ling Jingxuan raised his eyebrows, Liu Baoren had an intuition, and hurriedly leaned over enthusiastically: "To be honest, Zhang Yuanwai's son from the next town was a jinshi in high school two years ago, and was appointed to the southwest as a county magistrate. Now that he has stabilized, his son has If he wanted to pick them up, except for his hometown's mansion, he entrusted me to help him sell all the shops and fields in his name, and the rest is okay, that is, there are about 80 acres of high-quality paddy fields in your village that have been unable to sell, those landlords outside the staff

I think the land is too small, and some are too far away to manage. If you are interested, I will sell it to you for eight taels of silver per mu. What do you think? "

The minimum price for a top-grade paddy field is 10 taels of silver per mu. If he hadn't been in a hurry and wanted to please Ling Jingxuan, he would have been reluctant to sell it cheaply.

"You're not talking about the innermost paddy field at the east end of our village, are you?"

Ling Chenglong, who knew Tiantian best, suddenly interjected, his always sincere eyes gleamed faintly, and he didn't hide his desire at all. Ling Jingxuan didn't find it funny, does his father dare to be more honest?

"Yes, it's there, the old man is interested?"

Liu Baoren nodded excitedly and said that he really wanted to get rid of the land earlier.

"Well, Jing Xuan, if you have enough money, let's buy it, right? All the food in this family is bought with money. You are a person who likes to eat white rice, so the cost will be even greater. After making jam, Daddy will tend to those fields and plant rice next year, enough for us to chew wax."

A peasant is a peasant. When it comes to the ground, he is excited. Ling Chenglong's honest face seems to be blushing. Not only Ling Jingxuan finds it funny, but everyone else can't help laughing, and Ling Wangshi is even more ashamed. He pulled him over and said, "What do you say you are saying? The work is not enough for you? Do you have to farm to be happy?"

"Hey?? Isn't that familiar to me?"

Let his daughter-in-law teach him a lesson, Ling Chenglong is not annoyed, he scratches his head and smirks, Ling Wang sneered at him: "It's a full eighty acres, eight taels of silver per acre costs six hundred and forty taels, Do you really think our family has made a fortune?"

"Ah?" Hearing this, Ling Chenglong's smirk froze on his face, his eyes couldn't hide his disappointment, Ling Jingxuan hurriedly said: "Mother, it's alright, it's rare for Dad to have something he wants, just treat it as a private gift I bought for you. The industry is good."

With that said, Ling Jingxuan turned to Liu Baoren again: "Since my father knows the land, I don't have to go to see it in person. It's still an official deed, write my parents' names, and I'll give you the money all at once when it's done."

"Sure, I promise to deliver it to you within three days. Thank you Brother Ling for taking care of my business. It's getting late, so I'll leave first."

After finally selling the land, Liu Baoren walked away with a smile on his face. Ling Chenglong and his wife couldn't regain their senses for a long time. In the blink of an eye, their family had 80 acres of high-quality paddy fields? Are they not dreaming?

"Want to sleep for a while?"

As soon as the purchase was delayed, it was decisively past the nap time, Yan Shengrui took his hand and said with concern, for fear that he would not be able to endure it, Ling Jingxuan smiled and shook his head: "No need, go early in the evening. Just go to sleep, put these people in place first. When his eyes swept to the new entrants who were lined up in a row, the smile in his eyes disappeared. Ling Jingxuan stood up and walked slowly in front of them. He turned back and slowly Said: "Our family's rules are not as big as those of a big family, but it is not a family without rules. I don't care where you come from or what noble family you have worked for. Since you entered my house today, I have no other requirements. , I only ask you to be loyal. If I find out who is doing something behind my back, it will not be as simple as selling it. I hope you will weigh it carefully. "
