Farm widows have space, pick up a treasure on the way to escape

Chapter 173: There are no such three people in Anzhou

"Of course you can. If you can buy land in the village at this price, it will be the most cost-effective. My family doesn't want to buy the Qian family's land because I simply don't want to have anything to do with them. There is no need for you to be taboo."

He Jiuniang smiled and looked at Yu and Qin.

Yu also said: "Yes, don't take advantage of the bastard! You can't miss such a good opportunity. Do you two plan to split it equally?"

"No, no, no, we don't have that much money. My family will buy two acres of land, and my sister-in-law's family will buy one acre. When we make money next year, we will buy something else."

Cui'er waved her hands. Although they didn't have much money in their hands, they were smiling when they spoke. They had made a lot of money in such a short time since they came here, and they could even afford land. This was something they had never dreamed of. It's a good thing to dare to think about it. It's nothing to be ashamed of, and you should even be proud of it.

This kind of money they could not earn all year round in their hometown before.

He Jiuniang said: "I think you bought too little, and the Qian family probably won't sell it. Why don't you ask the rich eldest brother and the others to buy some as a family and divide the ten acres of land. The more people there are, the stronger the money will be." Even if I regret it, I won’t dare to cause trouble easily.”

"I think you're right! Okay, I'll listen to you. Let's go find Big Brother Fugui and the others to ask!"

The families who fled the famine with them also made more or less money, and they could buy at least one acre of land if they squeezed in.

Qi and her daughter can actually sell two or three acres of land, but they both work in garment workshops and don't have time to take care of the fields. They just want to buy one acre of land to simply grow some food, so that they can have a guarantee. , the mother and daughter will not be too tired.

The two thanked He Jiuniang and the others, got up and left.

Yu said with emotion: "The lives of our Lu family have become easier. Our family is considered very lucky now."

"Yes, this is all thanks to the third brother and sister! Third brother and sister, you are our lucky star!"

Speaking of this, Ms. Qin couldn't help but wiped away her tears. If her family members were still alive and could meet them and settle down together in Anping Village, they would definitely be able to live a good life, but now...

Seeing Mrs. Qin like this, Mrs. Yu felt a little sad. After all, Mrs. Qin still had a niece by her side, but she knew nothing about the news from her parents' side. He Jiuniang had painted a portrait before and asked the officers and soldiers to help keep an eye on it, but she seemed to have been No progress.

In fact, she has no hope, but she still feels sad when she thinks about it occasionally.

Seeing this, He Jiuniang sneaked away. The atmosphere was too depressing, so she had better not get involved.

After a period of hard work, all the sewing machines were put to use. Each female worker had one, and the output in a day was very high.

The Lu family's ready-made clothes do not need to be measured. He Jiuniang divides them into three sizes, large, medium and small, according to the post-modern sizes. Anyway, they are mass-produced every day and can be shipped no matter how many orders there are.

There are also slow ones. Those high-quality exclusive customized models that require manual embroidery will take several days. Fortunately, the price of those things is expensive. Even if it takes a few days, it is worth it to make it. Therefore, the embroidery ladies’ wages It has always been taller than that of ordinary female workers.

Naturally, no one among the female workers dared to complain. It is now much easier for them to use sewing machines every day than before, and they earn more money. It is not too late to be happy.

Seeing the female workers working so easily, the embroiderers complained one by one. Their relationship with the Lu family was also getting along well, and they were more courageous. When they saw He Jiuniang, they pestered her and asked when they could make a sewing machine like this. A machine that can embroider.

He Jiuniang waved her hand. Although it was not impossible, the thing was too complicated and required power support. It was not feasible in this era.

Fortunately, the embroiderers also know that this is difficult to achieve, so they usually just fantasize about it and don't hold out much hope.

The Qian family was indeed short of money. After knowing the extremely low price offered by the rich in the county, and hearing the price of 30 taels of silver offered by Cui'er and the others, they felt distressed and sold it. In this way, they instantly had [-] taels of silver. Have a good year.

Mrs. Li has scolded the Lu family badly these days, saying that if the Lu family hadn't deliberately targeted her family in this way, her family's land would not have been sold for only three taels of silver.However, people in the village heard these words in one ear and out the other, and they would not help to criticize the Lu family.

It was even known that the Lu family did not want to associate with the Qian family. In order to please the Lu family, when they heard Li saying bad things about the Lu family, they would help and scold them.

Faced with this matter, the villagers are not generally united.

The Lu family was busy working on the economy. Over in Nantai, Lou Chong, the confidant Lu Baichuan sent out half a month ago, also secretly returned and handed him the letter in his hand.

"Third Master, Miss Wei didn't say anything, she only gave me this envelope."

Hearing Lou Chong's words, Lu Baichuan's heart dropped to the lowest level. The envelope was very thick and he had already guessed what was inside.

"Okay, you go back and rest."

He smiled stiffly, dismissed the person, and then opened the envelope with a heavy heart.

Sure enough, it was a stack of banknotes that he had given him before, and now half of it was returned.
The rules there are like this. Once the matter is completed, you will receive the money, and if it is not completed, you will receive half. After all, they have sent people to inquire, and the hard work fee must always be collected.

In addition, there is a list and a letter. The content of the letter is very short, only a few words.

There are no traces of these three people in Anzhou. They may have died on the road, so we offer our condolences.

Although it was a very short line of text, Lu Baichuan read it for a long time before coming back to his senses.

With so many people in the family, is it possible that no one survived?
Thinking of the list, he immediately picked it up and looked at it carefully. It was full of names of people with the last name Lu, and none of them were familiar to him.

Impossible. With so many people in the Lu family, how could there be no one?

Is it possible that they didn't go to Anzhou at all?
Maybe the journey was difficult and the route was changed halfway?
Yes, that's right, it must be so!
He unconsciously increased his strength and crushed the paper in his hand into pieces.

He didn't believe that all his family members were gone and he had to go back and look for them himself.

Things here must be brought to an end quickly.

After thinking about it, he wrote a letter, then called one of his men in and said, "Find a way to send it to the palace and deliver it to Emperor Nantai."

He has been deploying during this period. If everything goes well, he should be able to return to Beiyan after the New Year. After that, he will take a leave of absence from King Chen to find out the whereabouts of his family first.

That night, Emperor Nantai received a letter from Lu Baichuan, saying that he was willing to help him overcome his current predicament, but it would cost money.

The signature is Shunyu Gambling House.

Emperor Nantai looked at the letter and fell into deep thought, who was behind this Shunyu Gambling House.

He had doubts before, thinking that the other party was probably from Beiyan, and that the prince's death had nothing to do with them, but there was no evidence.
