"What's going on?"
Xiao An was a little embarrassed, "Sister, what do you think of me buying the shop by the river and giving it to the He family?"
"That shop by the river? Is it the one that the He family rented before? It has two shops in the front for dine-in, and a small courtyard for living in the back?" Yang Ruoqing asked.
Xiao An nodded, "Yes, part of the reason why they left there before was because the landlord did not allow them to hold funerals there."
"And that shop has a good customer flow. I bought it and gave it to them. At least they will have a plan for their future lives."
Yang Ruoqing thought for a while, "You have a good intention, but even if you buy the shop, I guess the He family won't want it. You should understand the reason."
Xiao An's eyes darkened a bit.
"Qingsong is gone, and his father and mother are old. I'm afraid they don't have any skills other than making some morning tea." He lowered his head and whispered.
"Sister Lian'er is only fifteen years old, and she is a girl. She can't afford it. If I don't stand up at this time, they will be left with nothing."
"I know the He family's financial situation well. Without Qingsong, their little money won't last long."
"Xiao An, I don't object to you helping them buy a property, but I think it's better to forget about the shop. They probably just want to hide in their hometown and lick their wounds and don't want to come out."
Yang Ruoqing held her chin and helped Xiao An analyze it in detail.
"But they refused to give me the banknote. I tried..." he said a little aggrievedly.
Yang Ruoqing smiled helplessly, raised her hand and gently rubbed his head: "You are stupid, of course you won't want it!"
"Do you think this is going to work? You use the money you plan to buy a shop to buy land for them in the countryside and let them rent it out to collect rent steadily?"
Xiao An's eyes lit up again, and he raised his hand and patted his big head: "This is a good idea, why didn't I think of it!"
"Yes, buy them fields so that they don't have to do any work for the rest of their lives and can just sit at home and collect rent."
"When Lian'er grows up and recruits a son-in-law to help support the family, then if I have the conditions, I will continue to help them. If Qingsong is still alive, he will definitely rest in peace!"
When Yang Ruoqing saw the delicate and well-behaved He Lian'er, the attributes belonging to Yue Lao in her body were still faintly moving, because judging from the appearance alone, she matched Xiao An's appearance very well.
But now, when she heard that Xiao An was helping the He family plan for the future like a real brother, and even considering He Lian'er's marriage, Yang Ruoqing knew that Xiao An had no such intentions for He Lian'er.
"How much money do you have on that bank note? Bring it to me and see how much property I can buy." Yang Ruoqing added.
Xiao An quickly took out a banknote from his pocket and stuffed it into Yang Ruoqing's hand: "This is what I saved over the years when I was on duty and the pocket money you gave me when I was a kid. I spent some of it and the rest is here. "
Yang Ruoqing nodded. There were one hundred and twenty taels of silver on the bank note.
She knew Xiao An's monthly salary, but she didn't show much of it on the surface. After all, he was eating from the imperial court and was very honest.
But because of the imperial meals, there are always other salaries in each department. Therefore, in a place like Qing'an County, if you work for five or six years and don't spend too much money, you can still save money to buy a small yard and support a family of four or five years. Mouth is still okay.
With one hundred and twenty taels of personal money, there is no need for the family to worry about it when getting married.
Yang Ruoqing was secretly happy in her heart, but she smiled on her face.
"Brother, it's not easy for you to save all this money, but I'm afraid you'll be short of money to buy that two-storey shop by the river. The house prices there are the most expensive except for the area around Qing'an County Academy. No. More than two hundred taels of silver cannot buy that shop."
"Ah?" Xiao An looked at the banknote with surprise on his face and his face turned red.
My sister knows the price, and Uncle He must also know it.
Xiao An couldn't help but feel ashamed when he thought that he had so proudly asked Lian'er to send the banknote to Uncle He in the backyard, saying that he wanted to buy the shop.
"Sister, how much land can we buy in the countryside with just one hundred and twenty taels of silver?" he asked again.
Although I grew up in the village, I know little about this aspect. My sister is responsible for doing business, my father and mother are responsible for taking care of the farm work, and my brother is good at studying. Under their protection, I actually Became a 'giant baby'.
Yang Ruoqing thought for a moment and roughly told Xiao An about the grade and price of the fields in Qingshui Town.
"The He family's hometown is also in a village below Qing'an County. The buying and selling prices of land should be quite similar. According to the current market price, it costs six taels of silver for a first-class fertile land. Your banknote can buy twenty acres for them. field."
"The rent for twenty acres of land is too little. It can only provide enough food and clothing for them. On this basis, they can't save much money."
"If we add something else, or have relationships with relatives, or if someone in the family is sick and needs medical treatment, it will be even more difficult. It would be better to buy fifty acres of land, plus a shop to collect rent."
The fields guarantee food, and the rent collected by the shop guarantees a steady stream of living money. Only then can a family of three truly live a worry-free life.
Xiao An squeezed the banknote in his hand hard, and suddenly found that the banknote was thinner than a leaf.
"Xiao An, don't be discouraged. From a personal point of view, you are already very good. At least at this age, you can save so much money without relying on your family."
Yang Ruoqing is worried that her brother will fall into another depression quagmire just after being pulled out of the vortex of autism.
"More than one hundred taels of silver, left in the countryside, is enough to feed and clothe the three members of the He family for the rest of their lives."
"Although it's a bit tight for us to buy the land, that's because the land can be passed down to the family, which is different, so don't be depressed, you have done well enough."
Yang Ruoqing's comfort somewhat restored Xiao An's complexion.
"Sister, don't worry, I won't be too depressed. As long as I'm alive, I can continue to make money, and I will always take care of the He family."
I want to live for Qingsong, I want to live better.
Seeing her brother's firm eyes, Yang Ruoqing felt relieved.
"I'll give you the same."
She took out a contract from her body and handed it over.
Xiao An took a look. Even though he had no specific idea about money, land, or housing, he couldn't help but be surprised when he saw the house deed written in black and white.
"Sister, this house..."
"My sister prepared this house for you. It has a small courtyard with two entrances, just near the academy."
This is the house deed that was handed down from that cousin Shuhua. It is placed in Qing'an County. It will cost at least more than 300 taels of silver to get it.
"Sister, why are you giving me such an expensive house? I don't want it!" Xiao An thrust the contract back into Yang Ruoqing's hand.
