Chapter 17 Buying a Foundation

"Well, there are gastrodia elata and sealwort, and others that I haven't encountered yet. By the way, there are poisonous things like yesterday's snake that sold for more than one or two, and big scorpions are also quite valuable." Bai Jingwen caught two. Wolfberry came out and said.

"Didn't you say you didn't go into the deep mountains? The periphery of this thing has long since disappeared." Feng asked displeased.

"Well, it's not too far away. I chased a rabbit that day."

"Money is more important than human life. Try not to go to the mountains in the future. There will be chaos on the mountains in autumn. You have to be careful when even wolves come down one year." Bai Zhengsong said.

"I see."

"Since there's nothing else to do, let's go home and cook." Bai Zhengsong stood up and said.

"Don't worry, it's not easy for everyone to get together, grandpa, just so we can eat this little pig tonight." Bai Jingwen knew the importance of the patriarch at this time, and besides, Bai Zhengsong was a good person even though he was a bit greedy.Hold him down and see if Xiao Zhang dares to seek trouble.

"Are you willing?"

"What is there to be reluctant about? It's not as valuable as a snake."

"Leaves?"

"Uncle, just like what Xiaowen said, we haven't gathered together for a long time. I'll get some wine and eat together when I come back later."

"Okay, little Zhuzi, you can go to all the houses and call people here. We will have a good meal tonight, but remember to bring some bowls and chopsticks." Bai Zhengsong said with a big smile.

After a while, everyone arrived, and the men were busy killing pigs and the women were busy washing dishes, picking vegetables and washing vegetables.Seeing so many people, Bai Jingwen went to the house to take out the big fish and steam it.

"Xiaowen's ability is no less than that of a man. Whoever marries her will gain a lot of money." Bai Zhengsong's eldest daughter-in-law, Mrs. Wang, said listening to the braying of wild boars outside.

"You don't know how tough she is, she can catch poisonous snakes without blinking, and she can't marry back, but marry an aunt." Wu replied disdainfully.

"What's the matter? It's not that Xiaowen is unreasonable. You treat her well and she can find trouble. We are close relatives, otherwise I will ask Ye Ye to propose marriage." Wang said nonchalantly.

At this time, Bai Jingwen was skinning the pig skin neatly outside.

In the evening, there was a large pot of stewed meat, a large steamed fish, and a large pot of eggplant and beans stewed in broth. Everyone had a mouth full of oil.A few men even drank a little too much and started arguing.

The next day Dabai Jingwen went up the mountain to catch three chickens and two rabbits and came back.After breakfast, Bai Jingwen took out the material she brought for Bai Shuye when she bought fabric for the He family last time, and planned to give it to Bai Zhengsong first.

When he went out, he let Xiao Zhuzi carry two rabbits and he carried three pheasants and went out.

"Xiaowen is here, come in quickly, didn't you just have dinner and your grandpa was smoking in the house." Bai Zhengsong's eldest daughter-in-law Wang replied with a smile.

"Thank you auntie, I'll go in first if this pheasant is an extra meal for you." Bai Jingwen handed her the fattest pheasant and said.

Wang looked at the things in their hands and knew that they were all allocated, so she took them without any excuses.The Bai Jingwen siblings put the prey at the door before entering the house.

"Here, I still said, if you don't come after smoking this bag of cigarettes, I'll go find you." Bai Zhengsong said.

"That's okay. We agreed to come to you. I brought you a piece of material and you can save it for a suit." Bai Jingwen said as she put the material on the table.

"I see you are being polite, don't do this in the future, let's go now, otherwise the old boy will have to wait until night when he goes to the ground." Bai Zhengsong looked at the material of the brocade cloth very much, but said firmly .

"Grandpa, you said that you only brought some wild animals for the village chief, isn't it a little bit less?" Bai Jingwen asked while walking on the road, looking at the things in her hand.

"Isn't it enough that this thing can sell for more than 100 yuan? It's not like you're asking him to do something big. We can't feed his appetite." Bai Zhengsong turned back and said.

Bai Jingwen looked at the houses on both sides all the way. This village is really big, and there are at least a hundred households.However, most of the houses are adobe houses and there are only a few brick houses. It seems that the living standard in the village is very average.

"Brother Bai is here. I've heard about what happened yesterday. Tell me how much land you want." As soon as the three of them entered the courtyard, they saw an old man in his fifties repairing farm tools and saw the three of them coming in and asked with a smile.

"Brother Li, it depends on how much you charge for this acre of land, isn't it? If the place is so remote, you can see if it can be cheaper. When the children have no land, they can grow a la carte, sweet potatoes and the like can also be saved. "Bai Zhengsong casually picked up a stool and sat down and said.

"You kid just loves to take advantage." The village head gave him a blank look, put down his work and sat down to reply.

"I won't let you be wronged. Didn't your eldest son bring a few people to build houses for other people? I'll leave the work to them. As for the small workers, I'll find those in the village." Bai Zhengsong said. He said with a glance.

"Success, then it's settled, the boss will come out to pick up the work." The village head shouted loudly.

Bai Jingwen almost couldn't laugh out loud, this voice reminded her of the mother she saw on TV in her previous life.But it can be seen that the relationship between the two of them is very good, and they talk casually, thinking that yesterday's meal was really worth it.

"Brother, let me tell you the truth. I have measured that piece of land, and I have seen it. Although it is a bit troublesome to clean up, the soil below is really good. If it is not too far away, I will choose that piece of land for my youngest son last year. up.

But it's good that the fourth child of the Bai family can take care of them there.That piece of land is a total of two mu and two, and you know that the price of the foundation is one or two and one mu. Considering that the piece is too small, I will calculate your total of one or two or eight dollars. If there is less, the villagers should have opinions. "The village chief replied seriously.

"Of course, that's fine. It's settled. It just so happens that Zifeng came out. Xiaowen will discuss with your uncle to see how and how much money to cover. He is better than us." Bai Zhengsong winked at Bai Jingwen and said.

"Hello, Uncle Li, this is the blueprint I drew last night. Please help me figure out how much it would cost if I used bricks and tiles. Let me see if I have enough money." Bai Jingwen said.

"Okay, put it down, I'll find a piece of carbon." Li Zifeng said after taking a look.

"Zhuzi came over to Grandpa Li. The clever kid who used to be so clever now doesn't even talk much when he sees people." The village chief said regretfully.

"Grandpa Li, I'm afraid to interrupt your discussion." Zhu Zi stood up and walked in steadily.

"Brother Bai, after so many years, our village has only had two children, but I am very optimistic about this child, who is good at following his grandfather. Tell Xiaowen, if you have the ability, don't take the child away. I'm too late, I'm really afraid that I won't even be able to get any fame in this village, and I'll be bullied by people from other villages in the future." The village chief looked at Bai Zhengsong and said very seriously.
