Chapter 487
However, these thoughts of Ning Pengpeng naturally cannot let Cui Qingyuan know.

If he knew, he would not have given a large piece of land generously.

After all, if these lands were taken by the Ning family, it would be better for the officials of Nanyue Prefecture to control these houses near the port!
What Ning Pengpeng can think of, Cui Qingyuan is not without a master, so naturally he can think of it.

However, Ning Pengpeng didn't give Cui Qingyuan a chance to hesitate.

First, he pretended not to understand Cui Qingyuan's words, and looked around at him.

When Cui Qingyuan showed an anxious look on his face, he said her request to Cui Qingyuan seriously.

Cui Qingyuan thought for a while, as long as the Ning family was close to the ten acres of land near the unbuilt port, he didn't think there was anything tricky about it. After hesitating for a while, he nodded and agreed.

Hearing Cui Qingyuan nodded in agreement, Ning Pengpeng knew that the other party was hooked.

Therefore, without hesitation, he took out a written contract and settled the ten acres of land first.

Seeing Shouning County Lord's preparations so complete, Cui Qingyuan was stunned for a moment, and then subconsciously felt that something was wrong.

When Ning Pengpeng saw a strange look on Cui Qingyuan's face, he immediately took back the contract and said.

"Forget it, forget it, even though I'm an expensive county lord, I still have to earn money to live on my own!

Although I also want to help Master Cui, but, after all, I have a small family and a small business, so forget it. "

After finishing speaking, he prepared to take back the contract.

Hearing Ning Pengpeng's words, Cui Qingyuan snatched the contract from Ning Pengpeng's hand faster than his brain.

He felt that even if there was something wrong with it, it would certainly not compare to the urgently needed silver.

Who made Nanyue Mansion really poor!

Except for the Ning family, although the other families have some money, they definitely can't pay much.

So, after Cui Qingyuan thought about it, he still signed the contract with Ning Pengpeng.

Seeing that Cui Qingyuan signed the contract, the corners of Ning Pengpeng's mouth curled up imperceptibly.

Cui Qingyuan came happily and returned happily.

However, his happiness only lasted until Cui Xiu and Master came to look for him together.

During this period of time, Cui Xiu has been with Cui Qingyuan's master, and learned a lot from the master that she could not learn before.

But this time, a decree came from the capital, agreeing to the good news that Nanyue Prefecture would open the port.

Cui Xiu and Master went to the beach to see where the port should be located.

After finally finding two good places, Cui Xiu and Master also made a plan for the land near the port.

Rough calculations, if this port is established, just building a house near the port and renting it out can bring a lot of income to Nanyue Prefecture.

However, in the long run, the rents of these houses will continue to flow, not to mention the profits brought by the passing ships.

Unexpectedly, upon arriving at the mansion, he learned that the second uncle was looking for his future mother-in-law.

Upon hearing the news, Cui Xiu was overjoyed at first, but then she didn't know what to think of, and looked at each other in blank dismay, both of them could see the worried look in each other's eyes.

If it wasn't for the second uncle looking for it, it was his future mother-in-law, Cui Xiu might have brought the master to kill him long ago.

After finally waiting for the second uncle to come back with a happy face, the hearts of the two couldn't help but thump, thinking that their bad premonition might have come true.

"My lord, how many acres of land near the port did you give to the Ning family?"

As for the agreement between the Ning family and the second uncle to return the ten mu of land near the port to the Ning family, Cui Xiu kept her lips tightly shut, not daring to complain.

Although he is the nephew of the second uncle, but there is also his mother-in-law over there, and there is a daughter-in-law who didn't come in!

If he talked nonsense in the Futai mansion, if it reached the ears of his mother-in-law or Youxi, then he wouldn't need to be a human being.

Although, all the servants of Futai Mansion are very strict.

But Cui Xiu felt that the best way not to reveal the secret was to swallow the secret into her mouth and stomach without telling anyone.

Cui Xiu can't say it, doesn't want to say it, but it doesn't mean the master can't say it, doesn't want to say it!

When he learned that Master Cui promised the land near the port to the Ning family, his voice was raised by at least an octave.

"Ten... ten acres, what's the matter, Zhe Ming?"

Cui Qingyuan's master was once his younger brother. His surname is Cheng, his first name is Jinyuan, and his courtesy name is Zheming.

Now, this Mr. Cheng heard that Cui Qingyuan had given the Ning family ten acres of land near the port, and was almost so angry that one Buddha was born and the other ascended to heaven.

Ten acres, a full ten acres!
Once the ten mu of land was given to the Ning family, how could the officials earn the continuous rent?
After Mr. Cheng lost his temper, his affection for the Ning family immediately dropped to the lowest level.

I feel that this Ning family is a profiteer who took advantage of the trouble in Nanyue Mansion to rob.

Seeing that Cheng Jinyuan was so angry, Cui Qingyuan asked Cui Xiu what was going on.

Seeing that her second uncle asked herself, Cui Xiu could only whisper the conclusions she and Master Cheng came to the beach to inspect this time.

After finishing speaking, he paused again and said a good word for his mother-in-law.

"Second Uncle, only Master Cheng and I know about this.

How could my future mother-in-law know what Mr. Cheng and I were thinking.

She asked for the fields near the port, probably unintentionally. "

Hearing what his nephew said, Cui Qingyuan couldn't help but glared at the brat with his elbow turned outward with a constipated face.

If the Lord of Shouning County is that kind of careless person, how could he get the title of County Lord?
This time, I don't know what went wrong, so the Lord of Shouning County was informed of the news.

However, the imperial decree sent by his majesty was honestly hidden in a secret place by him, and he did not let others know at all.

Therefore, it is very unlikely that the news will spread from Futai Mansion.

However, it doesn't matter where the Lord of Shouning got the news from.

At least, before the port is built, they have to get money from the Ning family!

There is also the construction of navy and ships, which cannot be done in ten days and a half months.

I'm afraid it will be three or four months after these things are done.

I told everyone that this time is all it takes, but Cui Qingyuan was still very worried, thinking that this speed is too fast, and at the current level, it must not be possible.

Rao learned from Master Cui that although the Ning family got the ten mu of land near the port, they had to pay a lot in the early stage.

But Cheng Jinyuan's affection for the Ning family still hasn't retreated. After all, in his opinion, a businessman is a businessman, and he is very cunning.

Master Cui is just a frail scholar, most useless.

If someone from the Ning family threatened the adults with money, the adults would definitely agree.
