Chapter 950 Mu Family
After Mrs. Chen finished speaking, she nced straight at Gu Jinli, her eyes bubbling with sourness: "Xiaoyu is still smart. He asked An Geer toe to Fucheng and buy a house two years ago. Unlike us, now I cant even buy it if I want to.
After saying that, he was afraid that Gu Jinli would scold him, so he quickly changed the topic and scolded the rich people who were fleeing the famine: "Why are those **** so greedy? When I was back home in the northwest, they lived in Fucheng and took advantage of Fucheng''s people. All the houses were bought. After I fled to the south, I bought a house in Fucheng, He''an Prefecture. Not only did I buy all the houses in He''an Prefecture, but I also raised the price..."
She cursed a lot. In short, she was unhappy because she couldn''t buy a cheap house in Fucheng, so she had to scold her.
Gu Jinli looked at her but said nothing. After saying hello to Gu Dashan and Cui, he returned to the courtyard where he lived.
In the main room of the courtyard, Daqing, Erqing, and Xiaoji were all there. There was a picture on the table in front of the three of them, which was a map of He''an Prefecture drawn by Qin Sang.
Qin Sang learned the skills of scouts and could draw these drawings. In addition to the roads andndmarks in the mansion, this map of He''an Prefecture also depicts the mountains,kes, mountain roads and official roads on the outskirts of the city. It is clear at a nce.
Gu Jinli pointed to the tunnel at the far west end of the city, close to the city gate: "We must buy the area connected to the city gate, and leave thend on the right free for Xiao Sui and the others to build five houses with front shops and back houses to house those Little beggar.
Xiao Sui is the beggar leader in the west of the city. With the help of You''an and others, he has grown from a small beggar to a big beggar leader in the city. He has more than 200 beggars under hismand, and he has be a veritable "leader of the beggar gang".
He then asked, "What''s going on with the Zhou family and the Mu family in the north of the city? Have they agreed?"
In addition to wanting to buy the ruins in the west of the city, Gu Jinli also had his eye on a piece of wastnd in the north of the city.
That piece of wastnd covers an area of dozens of acres. It was the ancestral home of a nobleman from the previous dynasty. However, that nobleman from the previous dynasty was loyal to the previous dynasty and would rather die than surrender. When the Chu army invaded He''an Prefecture, , his whole family was killed.
In addition, the Chu army also used the ce as an execution ground and chopped off the heads of many wealthy households in the former dynasty who refused to surrender.
Although Dachu has been established for decades, Dachu believes in ghosts and gods. So many people have died in that ce, and there are rumors that it is haunted. It has been empty until now, and has turned into a wastnd with thatch.
However, there are two old houses in front of the wastnd. If she wants a road leading directly to the north city gate, she must buy those two old houses.
Daqing said: "The son of the Zhou family is promising. He works as a retainer in a wealthy family in Zhongzhou, and he is favored by his family. My mother lives in that house, so she is willing to sell it. But the son of the Zhou family is too busy, and the road in Zhongzhou is not smooth, so short I cante back within the time limit to pick up my mother and reunite her.
Gu Jinli said: "There is no need for the Zhou family''s son to send someone to pick it up. As long as the Zhou family is willing to sell the house, we will be responsible for escorting Mrs. Zhou there. As long as the things in the house are what Mrs. Zhou wants, even a broken stool, We also transport it to them.
Xiaoji smiled after hearing this and said, "Little boss, what if Mrs. Zhou wants to transport a handful of thatch?"
Erqing''s cold eyes immediately pierced Xiao Ji, which scared Xiao Ji so much that he quickly said: "I, I was wrong, I will change it."
Erqing, like Daqing, was born in a water bandit vige, and was trained by You An and others under Qin Sang. Everyone has murderous intent.
Erqing has also learned the rules of the noble family, and is very unhappy with Xiaoji''sughing and joking all day long. Recently, he has taken Xiaoji to learn the rules. If he doesn''t learn well, he will be punished.
Although Gu Jinli felt sorry for Xiao Ji, she was living in Dachu now, and there were some rules that couldn''t be broken, otherwise the servants would rebel, so he didn''t scold Er Qing, but just said to Xiao Ji: "Our business is getting bigger and bigger, sometimes we have to Use some tricks and learn from Erqing."
These are secondary. The most important thing is that she and Brother Qin are getting engaged. From now on, they will be husband and wife. The hatred of the Qin family will be her hatred. If she wants to avenge this revenge, she must raise people and raise a group of people. A person who can survive in a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood. She is very satisfied with Xiaoji and does not want to rece this loyal maid, but now the situation has changed. Xiaoji can no longer just be a little maid, she must start to learn other powerful skills and methods from Erqing.
Only if Xiao Ji is powerful, her side will be safe, and Brother Qin will feel at ease.
Yes, I understand. Xiao Ji responded, wanting to cry but not daring to cry.
Whats going on with the Mu family? Gu Jinli asked.
Daqing said: "There are many people but little ie. If you want to rip us off, you will need a lot of money."
There are four generations of the Mu family living under one roof, and each generation has more children. Now there are twenty-one great-grandchildren of Ancestor Mu alone. Only one of these twenty-one grandchildren is a girl, and the other twenty are all Among the boys who were moring for a wife, the oldest one was already in his mid-twenties. But because his family is poor and crowded, he is disliked by the girls in the city and has not yet found a wife.
If you get married and have children at the age of 18, you can have two fifth-generation great-grandchildren.
"How much does the Mu family want? Who said they wanted this money?" Gu Jinli asked.
Daqing said: "Thend plus the house cost us five thousand taels of silver. The person we were talking to was Mr. Mu. He was eager to find wives for his grandchildren. We told him that it was too expensive, and the house didn''t even cost one thousand taels. It was worth it. But he cried and said that everything in Fucheng was expensive. With these 5,000 taels of silver, he needed to buy four houses with front and back vis in Fucheng. The remaining silver was needed to marry wives for the twenty grandsons of the Mu family. There was not even a penny left. Those who dont let go are those who bite the bullet and wont let go.
Xiaoji heard this and said, "The Mu family is quite pitiful."
As a result, Erqing was red at again: "Just because their family is pitiful, we have to take advantage of them and pay five times more than before to buy their house? You haven''t seen that house before, it''s almost copsed."
After hearing this, Xiao Ji did not dare to speak anymore. The little boss likes money so much, and if she is asked to spend so much money to buy a house that is about to copse, she will be so angry that she can''t eat meat.
Gu Jinli said to Erqing: "Go to Mu''s house tomorrow, pick up Old Ancestor Mu, and tell her that I want to see her and talk to her personally about the house."
If the old man is acting like a rogue, then dont talk to him, just go past him and go to his mother.
Erqing''s eyes lit up when he heard this, and he said: "My little boss is smart, I will definitely bring Old Ancestor Mu here tomorrow."
Gu Jinli talked a lot with Daqing and Erqing, and calcted another sum. He felt that it was a good deal, and even went to bed happily after taking advantage of it.
The next day, Erqing got up early, brought gifts, and Chenshi took a mule cart to Mu''s house in the north of the city.
The eldest great-grandson of the Mu family was sitting on the steps outside the gate, thinking about Tang Niang from the Dai family in the north of the city. When he saw Erqinging, he was so happy that he rushed into the house and shouted: "Master,e out quickly and buy it." The house guy is here again!"
Tang''s family wants a bride price of one hundred taels of silver, but his family can''t even afford ten taels of silver. If the house can be sold for five thousand taels, the one hundred taels of silver as a bride price will be avable.
