Chapter 87 Envy

It’s not surprising that there are so many people.

Besides, the An family is now different from the past. An Shengchang returned to the family and hired An Wan'er as a son-in-law. He was rich and generous and ordered three big pigs to do something that would be done. Li Zheng had heard of it for a long time.

Therefore, I was more enthusiastic about him.

An Shengchang talked about his idea of ​​buying land and mountaintops. Li Zheng nodded immediately and asked tentatively: "The place next to your house and the small hill behind is not small, and there are always 180 acres. Those are not valuable, one acre is only five or six. The silver price is so high, how much do you want?”

"I want it all. Tomorrow, all your family must come. I will bother me to invite the people from the yamen to measure and apply for the contract."

As An Shengchang said, he handed Li Zheng five taels of silver. Seeing that Li Zheng had just said too much, but took the money with the flow and did not refuse, he laughed loudly: "How could it be too much? Our village is far away from the county town, I can't let you go for nothing, even a mouthful of You can’t even eat a bite of tea and dessert, right?”

"Haha, you'll understand." It seems that people from the clan are really extraordinary. Much more generous than those of them.

Li Zheng couldn't help but think back that An Shengchang was always so grand.

He was so disappointed that he thought An Shengchang was poor and was so depressed that he was going to come to their remote countryside to find shelter, but he was still so generous that he didn't know how to restrain himself.

Now, looking at An Shengchang's work, I realized that he felt that he was a big shot at the beginning, but I was afraid that he had already restrained himself and restrained himself.

Look at this now. Good, five taels of silver are just money for food, tea, snacks and snacks.

This is probably just to go to Beijing. Find the largest and best restaurant in Beijing, which is enough to have several meals, right?

So the silver... Li Zheng immediately said tactfully, "I will redeem this silver when I go to the county town. In addition to the food, tea and water, I will use it to deal with them." It is also possible that they can relax the measuring ruler.

"No, these are your hard-earned money and food and food. I will be rewarded if they come."

An Shengchang waved his hand and pointed at Shunzi again and said, "I haven't returned to the capital for many years, and now our family has opened a meat sauce workshop on the other end of the capital. I have to go back and live there when I buy the land now. On the day, he will give him some advice on his family affairs, and ask his uncle to take care of him more in the future."

"You still want to go back to the capital?"

Li Zheng was surprised at first and then took it for granted. However, isn’t the meat sauce workshop in An’s family already under the control of Xin Dahua and his wife? how?

He then said unexpectedly: "Are you still going to take Dahua and his wife to the capital?"

"That's right."

An Shengchang nodded and said with ease without denying it: "The meat sauce workshop on the other end of the capital is much bigger and more important than the village. After all, the meat sauce workshop will be more and more opened in the future, and there will be more and more people there. A big shopkeeper, a manager, etc. But I think it's useless. It depends on whether the couple is willing or not? ".

If you don’t want to, wouldn’t you become a fool?

That's the capital. Even if you don't leave it to them as the boss and the general manager, just going to see it will be enough to brag for decades and blow it to your great-grandson.

Li Jing was so sarcastic in his heart, and his face showed an envious look: "What's wrong with this? Although we are not too far from the capital, we have never heard of a few people in the village for generations. Go and see it."

"It is not easy to live in the capital. Although it is prosperous and lively, it is better to live in this village."

An Shengchang smiled: "I discussed with Su Lan that we will still return here after living in the capital for a while. After all, our family has been used to living here for a long time. .” As he said that, he stood up and said goodbye.

"That's true."

Li Zheng said, and personally gave him out, saying, "The land you want to buy is not a good land. No one has ever asked about it for many years, so just give him four taels and five cents of silver. Just a mu."

"Okay." An Shengchang said with knowledge of the current affairs, "Thank you for your hard work, I will thank you very much when the contract is released."

"Hey, what are you grateful for? Our family won't speak two people." Li Zheng smiled like Hua'er on his face, but he said politely.

"Another family, there is no need to ask people to run errands in vain, right?" How could An Shengchang not know that he was just a polite person? Of course I won't take his words seriously.

After seeing An Shengchang off, the house was closed and turned back to the main hall. Seeing that his wife had already opened the gift An Shengchang had sent. It looks like two kinds of courtesy, but in fact it is more than several.

There are eight kinds of dim sum, which are obvious at first glance, and they are all precious dim sums in the capital; the other is even more amazing, they are eight silver nudes with wish-full pens, which together cost more than ten taels of silver.

Holding the silver naked son, she couldn't let go of it, and the righteous woman there said to Li Zheng, "Looking at this silver, I'm just now open my eyes today.

It seems that the An family is really a big family in the capital. Otherwise, how could you have the intention to make this silver so exquisitely? Tsk, what is this silver naked boy worth in their eyes? But we can keep it as a family heirloom here.

I have to keep all of these for a few children, whether they are betrothal gifts or dowry. Take it out. It looks very shameful. ”

No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading!

As he said that, the woman there was a real woman enviously, "Hey, the boss, do you think Sulan is really good, how can you be so lucky? If you want to say, no one in our village has been sold.

But whoever is not worthy of a slave in the end, and all his descendants become slaves? She was lucky enough to match her master, but she just gave birth to a daughter, and she was treated like a kind person by her master. ”

I'm afraid that this is the only one of these luck. No one could have it in the past, and no one could meet it again in the future.

"It's true that I'm lucky. An Shengchang is the concubine's son. I'm afraid that his mother's family was powerful, otherwise he wouldn't be so miserable. You don't know that in the big family, if you meet a bad mother, the concubine's son will not be so miserable. Will you have to suffer a lot?

I think he would marry a girl back then, and he would break his bones and not be able to regenerate. It was his legitimate mother who had the hands and feet. Now that the years have passed, his legitimate mother should be gone, and the elders in his clan dare to compensate him like this. ”

The village often runs to the county town, and often interacts with people in the county government offices. As you hear more things, your knowledge will naturally be broader.

He looked at the things An Shengchang sent with satisfaction. I thought to myself. It seems that he still has more than four taels and five cents per acre of land.

However, since he had said it, he would not change it. It can only be then. Let the yamen runners who are measuring loosen the measuring ruler and relax it a little more.

"I think it's probably what you guessed."
