Since the wasteland is almost the same, and Grandpa has also seen it, the land at the foot of Cuilong Mountain is not bad, the soil quality is good, and it is flat and flat. It is not easy to find such a good place. Thinking about it carefully, Mo Ziwan felt that this place was good. If it was not expensive, she could buy the entire land, but it was still cheap to think about wasteland.
"Grandpa, how much is the price of an acre of wasteland?"
"It's estimated that something like this costs two taels of silver per acre." Mo Tingyu estimated as he looked at the piece of land in front of him.
"Is it the same at the foot of Cuilong Mountain?" Mo Ziyuan continued to ask.
Mo Tingyu pondered for a while before replying: "The wasteland in Cuilong Mountain is full of rocks and there are many trees in the ground. It's difficult to clean up. It shouldn't cost more than two taels of silver."
"Grandpa, why don't we buy land in Cuilong Mountain? If it's not easy to clean up, we can do it slowly. We're not in a hurry to use it. When it's done, half of it will be planted for brother Qingyuan, and the other half will be used for farming. I want to plant some too. Something different." Mo Ziwan just said it casually, because she just wanted her grandfather to buy the land under Cuilong Mountain.
"You want to ask your Qingyuan brother, can this land be used to grow medicine? Don't buy it. It will be a waste if you can't grow medicine." Mo Tingyu actually also intends to buy the land under Cuilong Mountain. The soil quality of that land is good. In the future, it will be a waste. I can definitely grow crops, but I haven’t thought about buying them all. Buying them all would be too much.
Murong Qingyuan replied: "If you can grow it, you can grow Panax notoginseng and Astragalus. I think Cuilong Mountain is better because it has more land and will be easier to take care of in the future."
Mo Ziyuan added: "There is a place to grow angelica. Our family already has a piece of sandy land, which can be used to grow angelica." Not all medicinal materials have to be planted together.
Both children wanted to buy it together, but Mo Tingyu was still a little hesitant. It didn't take much effort to clear a few acres. If they bought it all, it would take a lot of time just to clear the trees, grass, and stones. Not to mention time, we still have to spend money to hire talents. "Is there too much land at the foot of Cuilong Mountain? We can't plant it all? Buy a few acres to try first, and then buy again if you feel good about it."
"Grandpa, Uncle Qiao and the others are planting our land right now. They have to hire people anyway, so we just need to hire a few more people to help with the planting."
Murong Qingyuan added fuel to the fire, "Grandpa, if we don't finish the purchase this time, after I plant the medicinal materials later, what if the villagers see that we have done well and come to buy the remaining land first?" By then, we wanted to buy more but there was nothing left. I thought it would be better to buy them all at once. It’s cheaper to buy them now anyway. 「
Mo Ziyuan gave the last dose of heavy medicine, "Grandpa, our family's money cannot be kept forever. After the land is purchased, no one can steal it or rob it. Moreover, the food grown can be resold. This is better than leaving it at home." It’s much cheaper to save.”
Mo Tingyu originally wanted to buy it. Who among farmers doesn't want to buy more land? The reason why he hesitated was because he was afraid that if he bought too much, he would not be able to plant enough and it would be a waste. Now, the two of them said that they would not buy the land at the foot of Cuilong Mountain. It seems like a big loss. My heart skipped a beat, the kids were right, they were just asking for help anyway, at worst they could ask a few more people to help.
"I listen to you, buy it, buy it all. I will go find your Uncle Youdi when I get back."
After Mo Tingyu waved his hand and said he would buy it, Mo Ziyuan jumped happily and hung on Mo Tingyu, "Grandpa, that's great. Our family will have a lot of land in the future."
Murong Qingyuan also had a smile on his face, "I will grow medicine well, and I will definitely be able to earn back the money I paid to buy the land."
Mo Tingyu took his granddaughter into his arms. After hearing Murong Qingyuan's words, he turned around and said lovingly: "You still have the money from selling medicine. Now the family has income again. Don't think about it all day long." Earn money, study hard, and when you come back with a top score in the exam, you and I will share in your joy."
Murong Qingyuan's eyes suddenly became hot. While blinking hard, he nodded and said, "Okay."
They hope that they will get the top prize in the exam, because they just think that life will be easier after they win the top prize, rather than thinking that they will also enjoy the blessings if they win the top prize.
However, even if they don't have this idea, I still want to thank them, thank them for allowing me to have the love of my family again.
After deciding to buy the land at the foot of Cuilong Mountain, the three of them walked home without any further delay. When they arrived at the village, it was still early. Mo Tingyu asked the two children to go home by themselves while he went to find Li You.
Go.
After the expansion of the workshop began, Li Youdi was also helping to repair the house. When Mo Tingyu came to him, he and others were carrying bricks to the place where half of the wall had been built.
"Uncle Mo is here."
"Uncle Mo."
Some people joked and shouted: "Uncle Mo, just rest at home and enjoy your blessings. Even if you don't come and watch, we will work hard and we will definitely not steal women."
Mo Tingyu turned around and said jokingly: "You'd better watch your feet. Don't blame me if you fall down. I won't compensate you for your medical expenses."
"Uncle Mo, you are underestimating me. I have run back and forth to this brick no less than twenty or thirty times. I can even walk there with my eyes closed."
"Just blow it!"
As soon as Mo Tingyu finished speaking, Li Youdi came over and said, "I'm afraid he just made up his mind and wanted to walk with his eyes closed. If he fell, it happened to be caused by the repair shop, and he would be able to pay for it. You can then make money while lying at home."
As soon as Li Youdi finished speaking, the people who came to repair the workshop suddenly burst into laughter, which made him feel a little embarrassed. However, he reacted quickly and immediately answered: "Uncle Mo, you have to watch carefully. I'm afraid that if I fall, everyone will fall with me, and Uncle Mo won't be able to make up for it."
Mo Tingyu spat: "You think so well, I have this time to come see you, I might as well dig some hoe in the ground."
"You're not a big girl. You're pretty. What's so good about you?"
So a group of men started talking nonsense.
Mo Tingyu listened to their jokes, and the smile on his face deepened. He pulled Li Youdi aside and said, "Youdi, let me say a few words to you."
"What's the matter? Uncle Mo, just say it." Li Youde asked after following Mo Tingyu to the edge.
"Qingyuan also left his household registration in our village. Huang Rui took him to apply for it today."
Before Mo Tingyu finished speaking, Li Youdi grabbed it and said, "It's in the name of Wan Wan's father? This is great. From now on, Wan Wan will also have a big brother."
Seeing that he misunderstood, Mo Tingyu hurriedly explained: "No, no, he opened an account by himself and was not with us."
"What's the matter? You took him in so that he could study in the school, but now he doesn't want to follow you anymore?" Li Youdi felt a little resentful when he heard that Murong Qingyuan was unwilling to join the Mo family even if he set up a household.
"If that's the case, can't this school send him to school again? Not to mention it's a waste of money, and he will raise a white-eyed wolf in the future."
"He also has difficulties. His father is a fool. He is afraid of getting into our account. If his father comes and says that we kidnapped him, he is afraid of causing us trouble. This child is also a miserable person. , Obviously the family conditions are very good, but his father is partial to his stepmother’s child.”
Li Youdi also immediately changed the subject, "Qingyuan is so good that he doesn't want a child. He's good-looking and good at reading. I think his father is just blind. There will be times in the future when he regrets it."
"I told Qingyuan the same thing. I told him to study hard and pass the exam to make his father regret it."
"Uncle Mo, you still have good intentions. From now on, it will cost a lot of money to provide him with education."
Mo Tingyu did not admit that they paid for Murong Qingyuan's study. People in the village were very gossipy. Now many people are chewing on their tongues, saying that now that they are rich, they should imitate the city people and pretend to be generous. , I want to be the wife of a wealthy family. Some people say that they are hypocritical and the people in the village are not having a good life. Why don't they help me?
"My family didn't have much money before. He earned money for his studies by copying books and digging medicinal materials in the mountains. The family only provided him with food."
"He is kind-hearted and knows how to study well."
"No, he worked very hard on studying." Seeing that the topic had gone too far, Mo Tingyu quickly turned back and said, "This kid also has a lot on his mind. He thinks that studying will cost a lot of money, and now he has lost his account. In our village, we have only settled one household, with no land or house, so I am very worried. After going to the mountains to dig for herbs a few days ago, I came up with the idea of planting them. I said that I would go to the mountains to look for them everywhere. , and it’s a waste of time. You may not be able to find it yet, so you just say you’ll grow it yourself and sell it for money.”
"For this reason, I go to the medical clinic every day to pester the doctor and ask questions. Wanwan is also a child who loves to join in the fun. When she heard that her Qingyuan brother wanted to grow medicine to make money, he also said he wanted to grow it and asked me to buy land. .”
"You also know that she is the only granddaughter between your aunt and I, and the money is reserved for her use."
Li Youdi finally understood that the Mo family was preparing to start a big business again, and immediately answered: "Wanwan can read and is a girl with ideas. She said she can grow medicine, and she will definitely be able to grow it well."
"I haven't planted it before, and I don't know if it will produce anything. Anyway, I won't lose money if I buy the land. At worst, if she doesn't plant it well, she will plant crops instead."
After saying so much, Li Youdi finally understood that he wanted to buy land, but apart from wasteland, there was no good land in the village. "Uncle Mo, there is no good land in the village now, it's all wasteland." .”
"I know. I walked around for a long time and looked around. The two boys at the foot of Cuilong Mountain said it was suitable for growing medicine, so I came to tell you first. You have been waiting for a long time. Take some time and let's go take a look together. I'll just see that the land is leveled, and it should be possible to take care of it and plant crops in the future."
"Uncle Mo, that piece of land is not small? It's dozens of acres." Li Youdi said with some surprise.
"It's just a few dozen acres, but the land is very barren, with a lot of rocks and trees. I was wondering if the price should be cheaper, otherwise I wouldn't dare to buy such a large piece of land."
"That's true. Generally, a piece of land like that costs only one tael of silver per acre at most." Originally, I wanted to be cheap, but no matter how cheap it was, it would cost dozens of taels. But now that the Mo family is rich, these dozens of taels are also casual. Take it out at will.
