A Farmer's Lady's Guide to Getting Rich

Chapter 426
"Get up!"

Chang Ning looked at the old grandson's attire, and said happily, "Looking at you like this, Zhuangzi should be pretty good, so I'm relieved."

"Okay, good, everything is good on the Zhuangzi. Thanks to the master, people in other Zhuangzi are envious of us now!" The old grandson said repeatedly: "The Zhuangzi has all kinds of farm tools and all kinds of irrigation ditches. Good! The master has hired an old farmer to give advice, and no one dares to come to the village to make trouble. We don't have any worries, we just concentrate on farming, and we have a good harvest year after year."

"Then we must be thankful that the weather has been good for the past two years!" Chang Ning knew that the ancient agriculture basically depended on the weather.

"No, we still followed the right master! The master is kind-hearted, and the master is also kind-hearted. If the troublesome things are solved with the help of the master, everyone can live a prosperous life. So this time, the villagers in the village have said that it is called I must come to the palace to kowtow to the master instead of everyone."

What the old grandson said was the truth. Changning relied on Xingfu's family to do business to make money. The family had a simple population and did not oppress tenants like ordinary rich landowners.The land rent collected is less than that of other families, but she pays for the repairs and whole fields everywhere.She has a strong background, and no one dares to go to Zhuangzi to bully and oppress her.

In this way, the tenants in Xingfu Village are really much happier than other families.

"Actually, I came here this time not only to meet the master, but to hear that there are two big farms nearby that we want to sell. I don't know if the master is interested in buying them."

After exchanging pleasantries, the old grandson changed his voice.

"Two places, how big are they?"

"The two places add up to a total of 620 mu of land." Old Suntou has obviously done an investigation, and said: "The old slave went to check carefully, and [-]% of them are fertile fields. If you want to buy them when you are far away from the water source Can't buy it."

"Oh, then why sell it?"

"The daughter of that family has married to the south, and she wants to sell it and go to the south of the Yangtze River to buy better land for her daughter as a dowry!"

"So much land, you can get a lot of money if you buy it!" Chang Ning was a little moved, but everything had to be checked before making a decision, and said: "After the son comes back, I will discuss it with him before making a decision, thank you .”

"Where is it, this is what the old slave should do. It's nothing, so the old slave will resign!"

The old grandson also winked very much, seeing that he had said everything he needed to say, he hurried away!
Changning ordered the servant girl to reward the old grandson, and after sending him away, he thought about it for a while, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that buying the land was feasible.

The climate in the Northwest is cold and the land is barren and the grain yield is low. Even if potatoes and winter wheat are promoted, they will not be able to be self-sufficient for at least a few years.For military rations, we cannot rely on the Northwest to raise their own money.

She used to think about building a food base for Xiao Qian in the interior, but because she was too busy, she had no time to implement it. Recently, she was going back to the northwest, and she was thinking about it.And even if it is not for food production, good farms can only make money if they buy them. After all, rich people like to buy farms and land these days, especially the good farmland near the capital, which can be sold quickly if they don't want it.

It's just that no one helps her manage the farm!

This is a bit of a headache for Chang Ning, no matter how hard she is, she has to go to the northwest, so she can't fly here with wings.Her father, Qin Xiucai, is a scholar, and he only wants to pass the exam. You can ask him to take care of the little happy village once in a while.If you want him to be in charge of Dazhuang, it will definitely not work.

And next year there will be a three-year autumn, Qin Xiucai will definitely go all out to study and take the exam, so how can he have time to be distracted?
As for the others, Xin Changliang, Xin Changshu and other available people are now the backbone of the happy family, and none of them can be drawn out.Mr. Su is in charge of jewelry, and he is already very busy, let alone free.

Not to mention that once Chuntao left, no one would be in charge of Xingfu Meiyi.

The tailoring of clothing was originally set up by Changning himself to match jewelry on a whim. The customers are relatively small and the income is not much, so it doesn't matter if he just stops at this opportunity.

But Grange really doesn't have a suitable person in charge at the moment!

Money is easy to earn, but talents are hard to find. Do you have to recruit or buy people yourself?However, it is really hard to find people in this world who are literate and understand farming!

It will be difficult to trust those who are recruited for a while, and it will take time to adjust the ones that are bought, and they will not be able to work in the short term!

Chang Ning thought about it irritably for a while, and suddenly his mind lit up, thinking of the children of the Shen family.

The Shen family used to live in the mountains, and they were all self-sufficient. They must understand farming, not to mention writing and accounting. Nothing else to do!
With relatives and Elder Shen sitting in the township, the Shen family can definitely trust it. It would be best if they could entrust the children of the Shen family to help manage it.

Thinking of this, Chang Ning called the steward of the palace and ordered him to send someone to investigate the field quickly, while she herself calculated the money in hand excitedly.

More than 3000 mu of land, at least 8 to 10 taels of silver to buy, and including the house and utensils on the deed tax land, it is close to [-] taels. Does she have so much money?
After careful calculation, Chang Ning himself did not have so much money.Her bedding business takes the route of small profits but quick turnover, mainly benefiting the villagers in the mountain village. Seeing that the business is quite big, in fact, the net profit for the year is only 5000 taels.Adding up the past two or three years, excluding the working capital, there are less than [-] taels that can be used.

Jewelry is more profitable, but she is just about to join the franchise route to expand the production line, hired many new craftsmen, and purchased a large number of raw materials.Although the price given to her by the Gemstone Qi family is lower than the market price, the rough jewelry is expensive!After all, there was only more than 3 taels left in the account.

Needless to say, the farm has harvested a lot of grain, but it can't be sold for tens of thousands of taels of silver.

Calculated in this way, it is at least 5 taels short of the money to buy the land.

If you don't have enough private houses, you can only get them out of the dowry.Remembering that there was a lot of silver in the dowry gift Xiao Qian gave when they got married, Chang Ning was relieved, and at night he told Xiao Qian about buying a field.

"That is your dowry!" Xiao Qian put his arms around Chang Ning and said with emotion: "Honey, if you hadn't helped me find the millions of gold and silver, the Northwest Army would definitely be in chaos. Now it's only tens of thousands. It's just two, Madam can spend whatever she likes, even if you don't buy a field, it's okay to throw it away and listen to the sound of your husband."

"That's what you said, so I'm not going to be polite!"

Soon all the news about the fields came out, and indeed, as the old grandson said, there were many people who wanted to buy those two farms.However, there are not many people who can take out tens of thousands of taels of silver at once, and the person who sold the land heard that the eldest concubine of the Zhenbei Palace wanted to buy it, and offered to lower the price a little, willing to sell it to Changning.

This time, people from Zhenbei Prince's Mansion came forward during the whole process of buying the land. Chang Ning himself had no troubles. He only went out of the city to visit two farms on the day of delivery from the bank.Then when she was returning to the city, she accidentally saw Yun Xixi at the gate of the city.
