The sturdy farmer's wife: the prince's favorite concubine

Chapter 159 Preparing to Buy Land
The news brought by the eight taels of gold made Yang Yuanxiang's family happy for a long time. After the eight taels of gold left, everyone sat down and discussed.

"Father, what I mean is that we also have more than a thousand taels of silver in our hands. First, we will settle down [-] acres of land. Then we will plant food and fruit trees. We will plant some of the fruits that the family likes to eat. When the time comes, mother and aunt's shop There is another fruit shop next door, and if someone comes to buy it, we will bring them to pick it in the field, even if the price is higher, others will be willing to buy ours, who will let our freshness?"

Yang Guangzhong laughed from ear to ear.

"Listen to you, you and your mother are both heroes of our family. I, Yang Guangzhong, are lucky. Now it's my turn for double happiness."

Yang Yuanxiang smiled and turned to look at Shen Yunxian.

"Auntie, what about you, how much spare money do you have now, can you take down the land?"

It's okay not to mention this, but when money is mentioned, Shen Yunxian shows a embarrassed look.

"I really think so. It's just that my mother and I have been doing business for more than half a year, and we have only saved about a hundred taels of silver. At this price, I can only take down two and a half acres of land. The money is not enough."

Yang Yuanxiang wanted to help, but she might not be able to squeeze out the money, and she had to save the remaining 200 taels to make porcelain. If it was all spent, she would have no money to do porcelain business next month.

"Elder sister, don't worry, where do I save a hundred taels, I will give it to you when the time comes, and I will always be able to take four acres of land."

Shen Yunxian nodded.

"Even if you don't tell me, I plan to ask you to borrow it, but even so, it's not enough for us to take over five acres of land."

Shen Hongyi and Yang Yuanqiu glanced at each other and laughed in unison.

"Mom, don't worry about this. I have a way to raise another 50 taels, and then our family's five acres of land will be sold."

Shen Yunxian was taken aback, and quickly grabbed her daughter.

"Where are you going to raise money, little girl? This is not something you should worry about. Don't worry about money. Mother will figure out a way."

Shen Hongyi shook her head.

"Mother, I was just about to talk about this. Master Miaoyin introduced Qiu'er and me to a job some time ago. It cost 100 taels to do it. We embroidered a picture of a hundred birds facing the phoenix together, saying that it would be dedicated to Yunnan. For Queen Nan's birthday, Master Miaoyin only wanted to do it for Qiu'er alone, but Qiu'er invited me to do it, and Master Miaoyin agreed.

Now this embroidery is nearing completion, and we will get the money back as soon as we finish it. Qiu'er said that we will divide the 100 taels equally. "

When Yang Yuanxiang heard this, his brows were filled with joy.

"Oh, this is amazing. There are more embroidery items than when I bought porcelain before. It seems that you two are going to come from behind."

Shen Hongyi smiled sheepishly.

"How can there be such a thing? Qiu'er and I have worked for more than two months to finish this single embroidery. How can it compare to you. You now earn 200 taels of porcelain a month, and we don't I know when I can catch up with you."

Yang Yuanqiu looked at his sister with a frustrated expression.

"I originally wanted to get the money back and buy a gift for you all, but my aunt was in a hurry to use it, so I had to announce it first. I prepared this surprise for nothing."

Seeing that she was disappointed, Yang Yuanxiang quickly scratched the tip of her nose.

"Qiu'er is already amazing. You are still less than ten years old, and you can make money for your family. When I was your age, I took you up trees and down rivers all day long. You are much better than me. .”

Listening to Yang Yuanxiang's words, Yang Yuanqiu slowly broke into a smile.

"Sister, in fact, Master Miaoyin said that we are mainly not well-known now. If this embroidery is liked by the queen of southern Yunnan, then all the dignitaries in southern Yunnan will know that we have two embroidery masters in Kunmi Town. If you open an embroidery workshop at home, you won’t have to worry about no one coming to buy it.”

Listening to his younger sister's words, the corners of Yang Yuanxiang's eyes revealed the unique light of a profiteer.

"Father, did you hear, my sister said that if her picture of a hundred birds facing the phoenix can be realized, our family will have another business. Father, I was thinking that we should set aside an acre of land for Qiu'er and find someone to give it to her." Open up the sericulture room, when the time comes, we will make embroidery at the front of our house, and silk quilts at the back, and embroider pictures of hundreds of sons and thousands of grandchildren on it. At that time, the whole of southern Yunnan will know the quilts of hundreds of sons and thousands of grandchildren of our Yang family. I have a lot of income, as for the pattern of this embroidery, it will be decided by Qiu'er and Miss Xiaohong, what do you think?"

As soon as these words came out, the family members were stunned, and Yang Guangzhong looked at his daughter in disbelief.

"Xiang'er, who did you learn your business skills from? If you do this, our business will grow bigger and bigger. At that time, our family may not only be a small merchant, but may become Kunmi's. Great merchant."

Yang Yuanqiu shook his head when he heard it.

"Sister, I can do embroidery, but I don't know how to do business. If you engage in such a big battle, what will we do if we lose money?"

Yang Yuanxiang waved his hand.

"Hey, I can't lose money. I've made up my mind. In the future, I will gradually hand over the porcelain business to my father. As for my mother and aunt, I will continue to be your lo mei workshop. Anyway, if you have money to make, don't worry about it." As for being too idle, my younger sister and sister Xiaohong are in charge of the technical aspects of the embroidery workshop, and as for me, I will be in charge of the overall planning in the future, and I will take care of everything about our family's business, and I will be the big shopkeeper of our family."

Listening to Yang Yuanxiang's words, Yang Guangzhong slapped his thigh.

"Success, you have the final say, your planners will support you unconditionally. Anyway, our family will have your younger brother in the future, so we are not afraid that there will be no successors. In the past, I always felt that our family has no descendants. It is easy to make people jealous if so much money is around. But it's all right now, your mother is pregnant, and our family can work hard."

Yang Yuanxiang nodded.

"Father, I think we will settle the land next month. After the settlement, it will be almost the time of the Chinese New Year. At that time, we will spend a new year with He Meimei. When the ice and snow melt next year, we will start to deal with the right bank. It is cheaper to build a house than to buy land, and we will pay close attention to it, and the shop and house can be repaired with a few hundred taels."

The big guys couldn't help but have hope when they heard it, and Shen Yunxian nodded happily.

"Then Xiang'er, when you repair the house, even ours should be included. I won't short you of the money, but it's just you and me, Miss Hong, in our family. You can help us if you can."

Yang Yuanxiang nodded.

"Auntie, look at what you said, we are a family now, regardless of yours and mine, let's buy the land first, and arrange other things one by one in the next year. I think the family must hire some people in the next year, or the business will be big. I can't be too busy."

Shen Zhimin and Taohua, who had been sitting on the sidelines silently, stood up quickly after hearing this.

"Xiang'er, I can make shoes, and I can also help the embroidery workshop to make embroidered shoes at that time, and Taohua can raise silkworms, so please arrange errands for us."
