Escape after crossing

Chapter 132 Buying a Property

"Erya, just call me sister, don't call me fairy sister."

"Sister is the most beautiful sister I have ever seen. Of course she is a fairy sister."

"Arya will meet more people in the future, and naturally she will meet people who are prettier than her sister."

"Will it? Will there be someone prettier than my sister?"

"of course."

Jiang Ziluo stopped talking about this issue with Erya and instead looked at the paper-cutting. She remembered that the paper-cutting craft had existed in ancient times and that this craft had inheritors in later generations, but these inheritors still lost a lot of traditional things.

It is only because of the pursuit of speed and quantity in later generations, coupled with the development of technology, that machines can be used to replace manual labor. Therefore, paper-cutting in later generations is diversified, but lacks the craftsmanship of human beings.

Jiang Ziluo originally had some ideas when she heard about Beggars' Lane and Pauper's Lane. Now she was waiting for Mingyue to come back and give her accurate information.

Not long after, Mingyue did come back, but she brought back three children. Their faces were dirty, their hair was messy, their clothes were dirty and torn, and there was an unpleasant smell.

Mingyue said to Jiang Ziluo, "Miss, I went to Beggar Lane. The houses there were all shabby except for the roofs.

I saw the three of them in a small corner. There were a few other children on the other side. The three of them said that the older children had a leader who often bullied them.

Most of the food or food they get every day has to be shared. It is not easy for the three of them to survive until now. I will bring the three of them back first."

"Well, Stone, how far is this place from the stream?"

"Oh, not far. It's very close from the west gate."

"Okay, take the three of them, buy each of them a set of clothes, and have them wash them. Then bring them to the restaurant and find me, okay?"

"sure, no problem."

"Mingxi, give Shitou some silver. Take the silver and buy clothes and food for the three of them."

"Yes, thank you, young lady. Thank you quickly, young lady." Shi Tou naturally felt that it smelled bad, but he still walked over and said to the three of them.

"Thank you, young lady." The three of them were obedient and thanked Jiang Ziluo in unison. Then Shi Tou led the three of them away.

"Erya, you stay at home and take care of your sister. We are leaving first."

"Thank you, fairy sister. I will definitely take good care of you."

Jiang Ziluo took Mingyue and Mingxi away. When they returned to the restaurant, it was already noon. The shopkeeper told Jiang Ziluo that he had sent people to catch red beetles.

Jiang Ziluo did not urge him, but asked the shopkeeper about other things.

"Boss, do you know any human traffickers?"

"Girl, are you going to buy someone?"

"I want to buy a house with a bigger place and a yard. The yard should be bigger so I can grow some vegetables or something."

"Girl, do you have any requirements for location and price?"

"It's okay to be a little off, but the most important thing is to be safe."

"Then go and rest first girl, I will make arrangements."

"Boss, do you think these are enough?" A waiter came in carrying two wooden barrels and saw the boss standing up, so he shouted hurriedly.

The shopkeeper only told us to catch some, but didn't specify how much. Jiang Ziluo went to take a look and said, "That's all for now. Go get a big wooden basin, put some alkali in it, and cover it with the basin."

The waiter saw the shopkeeper nod and did as he was told. Jiang Ziluo asked Mingyue to wait for Shitou and the others downstairs and took Mingxi back to the room.

"Mingxi, I'm afraid we won't be able to return today. Take the herbs back with you and give them to Leng Chenming. Tell him to give them to my master."

"Girl, if the prince asks you about it, what will you say?"

"Just say that I'm going back after finishing my work, but I don't think he should have time to ask, right?" Jiang Ziluo felt that since the antidote had been taken back, Leng Chenming probably wouldn't have time to do the same as he did in the past few days.

Having sat in the restaurant's private room for a whole day, Jiang Ziluo actually wanted to ask, how do you handle things while sitting in the private room for a whole day?

Mingxi wanted to ask more, but Jiang Ziluo urged her, "Okay, go now."

Mingxi had no choice but to leave with her things, and Jiang Ziluo followed her downstairs. She had to see if there were any tools she could use to clean the crayfish later.

Although Jiang Ziluo felt that the environment at that time had not been polluted and should be easy to clean, this was not modern times and the tools were not complete.

Jiang Ziluo had seen brushes in this dynasty, but they were quite large and the bristles were hard. Jiang Ziluo had no idea what they were made of.

She had never asked carefully or researched it. Now that she was going to use it, she had to ask carefully. She asked the waiter and found that there was indeed only a brush, and only the big one.

However, all the brushes in the restaurant were used and there were no new ones, so Jiang Ziluo asked the waiter to buy some.

The shopkeeper came back soon, bringing the boy with him. The shopkeeper told the boy Jiang Ziluo's requirements. The boy selected several houses and deeds that met Jiang Ziluo's requirements and brought them back with him.

The shopkeeper took Jiang Ziluo and the boy to a private room and introduced them.

"Old Huang, this is the Miss Jiang I was talking about. Take out the land deed you prepared and tell her the details."

"Well, okay, Miss Jiang, these are the deeds to three houses. Two of them are in the county town, and the other is five miles south of the county town, which is quite far. Miss Jiang wants to see these two."

Jiang Ziluo just asked him to describe in detail the size of each place, its exact location and the price. The shopkeeper also checked with Jiang Ziluo.

The guy named Lao Huang was quite capable. In addition to the land deeds, he also took the maps of the three houses. They were just rough maps, but with him explaining, Jiang Ziluo was able to understand them.

It's not that Jiang Ziluo didn't want to go to the places to check. It would probably take a lot of time to check these three places, and she didn't have that much time. Although Mingxi had already gone back with the antidote, Jiang Ziluo was still worried.

After all, there was another poison in the Ninth Prince's body, so she couldn't delay too long. The reason why she wanted to buy a house and asked Mingyue to go to the beggar's lane to find someone was that she wanted to find a suitable person there, so she could just stay there. Her Baicaotang hadn't opened to the south yet?

She still had to continue to strive for her great cause. Jiang Ziluo chose a house five miles south of Qinghe County, not far from the village and the county town. The main reason was that the house was large and had many rooms.

This does meet Jiang Ziluo's requirements, but there is one thing: the fields around here all belong to other people, and there is only this yard, but fortunately it is quite large.

The shopkeeper helped Jiang Ziluo to bargain down the price. After the price was agreed upon, Jiang Ziluo paid the money and the shopkeeper took care of the rest.

Jiang Ziluo left the private room and went to look at the crayfish. Jiang Ziluo felt that it was almost done. The waiter came back after buying a brush.

Just in time, Jiang Ziluo asked him to watch how he was going to process the crayfish. After the waiter understood it, he asked the waiter to find another person to do it, as two people could do it faster.

Jiang Ziluo went to prepare the ingredients. Originally, each person in the restaurant was assigned to one position. Now it was not yet dinner time, so Jiang Ziluo could still use two people, but he really couldn't spare more.
