Chapter three hundred and eighty fourth choked panic

Zhou Shuren ordered jewelry in the Zhou family in Lizhou City. Zhou Shuren did not waste some scraps. He polished the jade pendants and hairpins that matched the bamboo orchid heads and faces. Zhou Shuren let the remaining broken scraps be polished. When the bamboo orchid comes back, the bamboo orchids will be inlaid according to their preferences.

Zhou Shuren looked at the jade pendant beside his head and face, and the shrewd Lord Zhou smiled foolishly. It was a couple style. This perception inspired Zhou Shuren. In the future, he would wear it with bamboo orchid.

Zhou Shuren cut off the jade rewarded by the emperor to make jewelry. This wave of operations made the whole city feel a little choked. Even though he could be a family heirloom, Lord Zhou carved jewelry for his wife!

The men sighed that Lord Zhou is really a love-like person. This time he completely believed it. If it were them, he would definitely be carved into a family treasure and passed on from generation to generation!

The women tore several handkerchiefs apart, and their jealous eyes turned red.

Mr. Chen’s wife, Mrs. Hua, has been sarcastic to her master for several days, and she is sarcastic to her words.

Lord Chen, “……….”

Lord Zhou has caused them a lot!

Zhou Shuren was not idle at home at all, and continued to give Zhulan a hatred!

The next morning, Zhulan had breakfast and got on the carriage prepared by Yaxing to see Zhuangzi. Zhuangzi was a little far from Jinzhou City, and it took an hour to go.

Zhulan didn't really feel that it was bumpy. She found that the roads in the south were well built, unlike the vast and sparsely populated roads in the north, with pits and no one maintained them.

When they arrived at the place, Zhulan saw the tenants in the farm.

Yazi respectfully introduced, "Yang Yiren, this house belongs to the owner. These tenants not only rent land but also rent the owner's house."

Zhulan never thought that if she bought a farm without revealing her identity, she would not only bully you, but local officials would also bully you. Who can afford to buy a farm has a fortune? Zhulan asked, "How do they calculate their rent?"

Yazi explained: "Three or seven points."

Zhulan thought it was quite dark, and 70% of it was given to the owner of the house, and only 30% of the tenants left. They also had to pay the rent for housing every year. There were many children at home, and even if they could grow it for two seasons in the south, it would not be enough to eat.

Yazi continued: "There are only very few people who have a kind housekeeper who has four or six points."

Zhulan said she knew it. She saw many children looking at her timidly, and some women were full of worries.

Zhulan knew that many officials would not rent out the farms to tenants. They basically bought a servant to manage the farms, and they were hired for short-term workers in farming and harvesting in autumn.

These tenants were afraid that Zhulan would not rent out the land if they bought the farm, and not only did they lose the land, but they even had no place to live.

Yazi led the way to the main entrance of the yard and opened the gate. Yazi introduced: "This is the yard where the owner lives. Although the owner of the mansion does not come to live often, there are always people in the yard. There are ponds and rockery in the yard, and the scenery is good. Because the owner of the mansion lacks money, the house is equivalent to half selling and half giving away."

Zhulan looked at the front yard and the house in Jiangnan. The layout of the house was also very good. There was also an attic in the back yard. Zhulan fell in love with it at first sight.

Yazi saw it and realized that he had become halfway through it. He dared not fool the official wife.

Then Zhulan went to see the fields again, the farmland had 150 acres of dry land, 50 acres of paddy fields, and fish were also raised in the paddy fields.

Zhulan met many tenants working in the fields along the way, and they paused to look at Zhulan and others. Some were panicked, and some were panicked, and they were all confused about the future.

Zhulan knew that some tenants lived better than self-cultivated households, but they had no family fortune and depended on outsiders. Once they could not rent the land, the tenants would panic.

Then Zhulan looked at two 200 acres of farms, and there were only one of the three farms without tenants.

Zhulan is clean and neat, and there is no need to delay if she is optimistic. Moreover, she is an official, and Zhou Shuren's name is really useful. Everyone in the new subject knows that he went to Lizhou City. He basically knows the changes in Lizhou City by word of mouth, especially among officials.

No one dared to fool Zhulan when she bought a house. She bought two farms with tenants, one with Zhou Shuren's name and the other with her name.

Zhou Laoer went to do it, but Zhou Laoer didn't ask much. Anyway, in his father's heart, he didn't care about his mother's name. The two farms gave him 4,400 yuan cheaper. Including the silver money for Yashang and the covenant exchange, he spent a total of 4,550 taels. He was worried that his mother had already spent a lot of money, afraid that the money would not be enough, but when his mother gave him the money, he saw that there was still a lot left in the box.

Zhou Laoer warned himself to please his mother. All he calculated was the money in the mansion. He didn't know how much money he had in his hands. Whether it was a family split or a hundred years of parents, the one who made the decision must be his mother. If he recorded it in his mother's name and reported it to the government, it would be the dowry, and he would give it to whoever he wanted!

Zhulan didn't know Zhou Laoer's little thoughts. She knew it, Zhulan didn't care. Just don't anger her. If she angered her, she would definitely be willful when she was dying.

Zhulan has less than 5,000 taels of silver left in her hand. Zhulan is not going to buy a farm. She is optimistic about the location of Jinzhou City, which is guaranteed to obtain income from drought and flood. The rent of shops in Jinzhou City is the most stable.

What the Zhou family lacks is a stable income, so she plans to buy a shop for the remaining money.

Zhulan asked Zhou Laoer to ask about the price of the shop. The shops in Jinzhou City are expensive. According to modern times, it is not a good location. The price of a good location of 60 square meters can reach 500 square meters. The rent for a good location is also very pleasant. The rent for a good location is 60 square meters, and the rent for a good location is 60 square meters per year, and the rent for a worse location is 40 square meters.

Zhulan didn’t buy large-scale shops, all of which were small. Some only had shops facing the street, and some had small backyards to live in. She bought eight shops at once, only two of them in good locations, and the others were all OK locations.

A total of 4,000 taels were spent, and the benefits and taxes for the exchange of the contract were included.

Zhulan still has more than 600 taels of silver left in her hand.

There were eight shops and two good locations with Zhou Shuren's name, and the remaining six were all under Zhulan's name.

This time, even the smart Zhou Laoer was stunned. My mother brought 10,000 taels of silver to her family. She included the land and real estate. My God, it turned out that my family was so rich!

Zhou Laoer's eyes were shining brightly at the same time. The money he had made in it was all my money. How many times he bought a house and sold it was all my idea. When could he learn his skills?

Zhulan bought a shop and signed a contract with the merchant who rented the shop, and came to check the cash at the end of each year.
