Crossing the famine, I am a poor fish, and my descendants have to work hard

Wang Tongzhi first looked at the mountains, then thought about the price, how much is appropriate.

The land in the mountains is worthless. No one has ever bought this kind of land before. According to previous pricing, the price of mountain land is one tael of silver per acre.

But this is a pure mountain range, and its value should not be worth even a tael of silver.

But there are many trees on the mountain, and there is a lot of timber in such a large forest.

The price should be increased a little.

"My Lord, Madam, according to the regulations, the price of mountain land is one tael of silver per mu. The piece of land that Madam likes is a pure mountain range, so it should be cheaper. However, the mountain range is really large, and there are a lot of wood on the mountain, so the price may be higher. Let's use one tael and five cents of silver per mu."

This price is really cheap.

Just those woods can be sold for a lot of money.

After hearing the price, Zhao Yuanzhen knew that Wang Tongzhi had really given her a good discount, but she couldn't take advantage of it.

Firstly, he had plenty of money, and secondly, he did not want to affect Zhang Xinshu's official reputation.

If someone says in the future that he abuses his power for personal gain and sells land at a low price

"One tael and five cents of silver is a little too little. Let's calculate it based on two taels of silver. I calculated it at the time, and it was about 2 acres. It's more than . I'll just give you a round number, . Is that okay with you, Wang Tongzhi?"

"Yes, of course, that's entirely possible, ma'am. The price is quite high."

"Okay, of course I roughly measured the size of the land. Do you want to measure it again?"

"No need, it is that mountain range anyway. We trust Madam, so we won't measure it."

"Okay, let's get the contract done then."

Zhao Yuanzhen took out a silver note worth 25 taels of silver from his sleeve.

Handed it to Wang Tongzhi.

Wang Tongzhi took the silver note and counted it again. When the quantity was correct, he began to write the land deed for Zhao Yuanzhen.

After writing the deed, he signed and stamped it with the seal of the prefecture.

Afterwards, the transfer was registered at the government office and a red contract was directly exchanged for Zhao Yuanzhen.

"Ma'am, here you go. It's done. Please keep it."

"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Mr. Wang. This is a small token of my appreciation. Take it and have a drink."

Then he took out 50 taels of silver and handed it to Tongzhi Wang.

Wang Tongzhi was shocked.

This is unacceptable. Accepting bribes in front of Magistrate Zhang is like seeking death.

"No, I can't do that. I can't do that. This is my job. I can't do that."

Zhao Yuanzhen glanced at Zhang Xinshu and asked him to speak.

"Take it, Wang Tongzhi. Think of it as a New Year's red envelope. My mother sympathizes with your hard work on duty. Let's go have a drink."

Zhang Xinshu is not the kind of person who doesn't know how to adapt.

It wasn't much of a bribe.

"Well... then I would like to thank you, Madam."

"Well, take it quickly. I'm going to go back now. You guys go ahead and get busy."

The reason why Zhao Yuanzhen gave money to Wang Tongzhi was that he thought that when the next prefect came, if he asked about Zhao Yuanzhen's purchase of land, he would tell the truth.

It will not affect Zhang Xinshuo's official reputation.

"Yes, yes, ma'am, take care."

"Ah."

Zhao Yuanzhen said goodbye to the government office and went back.

When we arrived at Nancheng Garden, Zhang Ziyou and Zhang Zipei had already returned.

Seeing my grandma, whom I hadn't seen for several days, I chattered about my life over the past few days.

Zhao Yuanzhen listened patiently and said a few words from time to time, all of which were words of praise, which made the two little guys more interested.

Thinking that the mountains have been bought.

We also need to find some people to plant the spice seedlings.

He called Zhang Cancong and ordered him to buy a group of servants.

"Cancong, go to the dental clinic and buy some servants. I want to take them to dig holes and plant trees."

"Okay, ma'am, how many people?"

"Let's buy 120. 100 of them will plant trees, and 20 will be responsible for cooking and doing odd jobs."

"Yes, ma'am, I'll do it in a minute."

"Yes. When we come back, we will ask Zhuangzi to prepare some daily necessities for the people, and then we will ask the transport team to deliver them together."

"Yes, ma'am."

That place was too far from Yangzhou Prefecture, and it was not realistic to travel back and forth, so I could only settle down there and cook my own meals.

"Well, let's go."

"Yes, ma'am."

As for the various building materials and builders used to build the house, you can just find people in the county town or village near the mountains and buy the materials.

These things will probably take three or four days.

Even if she has nothing to do these days, she can take a good stroll with the two little ones.

"Shall we go to the beach tomorrow?"

Zhao Yuanzhen asked the two little guys with a smile.

"Really? Okay, okay. I want to go to the beach the most, grandma!"

"Grandma, I want to go too! I've been thinking about it for a long time!"

"Of course it's true. We're going there tomorrow. Not only will we play at the beach, but we're also going out to the sea and have fun in the ocean."

"Wow! That's great, that's great. Grandma, are we going to live on the boat?"

"Yes, I'll be staying here for about three days. How is it? Are you scared?"

"Grandma, what are you talking about? I'm so happy, how could I be scared!"

Zhang Ziyou's face was already flushed with excitement.

"What about Zipei? Will Zipei be scared?"

"No, grandma, I'm looking forward to it too!"

"Okay, then we'll set off after breakfast tomorrow."

"Okay, grandma."

"Madam, does this servant need me to prepare anything?"

"Well, no need to prepare, everything is available on the boat. I have a boat parked at the beach."

"Yes, ma'am."

Zhao Yuanzhen didn't plan to bring anyone else this time, just Lan Ying and the two little ones.

It would be inconvenient if there were too many people.

The next morning, the two little guys got up early, chirping, their faces full of excitement and excitement that could not be concealed.

After finishing breakfast in a hurry, he waited anxiously for Zhao Yuanzhen to eat so that they could go to the beach after eating.

Zhao Yuanzhen found it funny and quickly finished her meal.

After the meal, they simply packed up their things.

Actually, they are just clothes and daily necessities for the two little ones.

They didn’t take much, just a small package each.

Lan Ying took the things and several people got on the carriage.

This time we went to the beach in a carriage from the mansion.

Their carriage was too conspicuous, and it would be a bit troublesome to suddenly disappear.

And we agreed to pick them up at the beach in three days.

A few people took a horse-drawn carriage and it took almost three hours to reach the beach.

When they saw the horizon, Zhang Ziyou and Zhang Zipei were extremely excited.

"Grandma! I saw the sea! Wow! The sea is so big!"

"I saw it too! Grandma, let's go quickly. Sister Lanying, let's go faster!"

"Yes, young lady!"

Lan Ying smiled and whipped the horse, speeding up the pace.

Until they reached the beach by the sea, the carriage could no longer move.

They stopped the carriage.

Lan Ying took out a piece of oilcloth and directed several servants in another carriage to build a beach awning.

I spread a piece of tarpaulin under the beach awning and put my things there temporarily.

"Well, you guys go back and take the lady's carriage back with you."

"Yes, Miss Lanying!"

The two little ones had already taken Zhao Yuanzhen to have fun on the beach.

It was past the morning sailing time, and they chose a more remote coastline, so there were not many people around.

After the servants had left, Zhao Yuanzhen asked the system to scan to see if there was anyone there.

Took a few beach chairs and small table from the space.

Also had beach toys for the two little ones.

Small buckets, small shovels, small balls, etc.

The two of them happily took their grandmother's toys.

"Thank you grandma!"

"Go and play!"

"Yeah, okay, grandma!"

Lan Ying was afraid that there might be bugs or small seafood on the beach that might hurt them, so she followed them.

The boundless sea is like a blue dream, full of mystery and temptation.

For children in the north, the vast ocean always fascinates them, as if it has an irresistible attraction.

In the north, which is mostly inland, most children have never seen a real sea.

Therefore, when they saw the sea for the first time, they were shocked and excited beyond words. The waves hit the shore, making crisp sounds; the sea breeze gently brushed across their faces, bringing a salty smell; the sun shone on the sea, sparkling and beautiful.

All of this made Zhang Ziyou and Zhang Zipei feel extremely novel and happy.

The sea also brings them endless joy and freedom.

They followed Lan Ying to run and play on the beach, build sand castles, or pick up shells on the seashore.

The sea water is crystal clear, and occasionally you can see small fish and shrimps swimming around in it. The two of them will scream and chase them excitedly, feeling the magical charm of nature.

Zhao Yuanzhen looked at the two little guys running around, their excitement making a gentle smile spread across her lips.

But she didn't want to move, so she sat on the lounge chair under the awning.

I bought a few cups of milk tea and sat leisurely on the recliner to relax.

Cozy.

Empty your mind and think casually.

Zhao Yuanzhen is 48 years old this year!

It has been ten years since I traveled through time.

Time flies so fast!

It’s been ten years.

She has been busy for the past ten years, either developing the economy and earning points, or on the way to developing the economy and earning points.

It was really hurried.

She set a small goal for herself in her mind: to retire when she turns 50.

I also want to go and enjoy my retirement.

So in the next year or so, I need to earn some more points and buy everything I want and save them up.

What is useful, what is not useful, what may be useful in the future, etc.

The most important thing is to be fully prepared and destroy the system.

You have to be cautious about this, otherwise if you are not careful, the system will backfire on you and you will be struck by lightning.

The books are now almost sorted, except that I copied all the books in the National Library.

She also prepared all the books left on the market.

There are also a wide range of recipes and technical books prepared.

Since she wants to build a noble family, books are her real trump card.
