As soon as they entered the horse market, Old Wang came back and took them to a familiar dealer to choose horses.

"The horses here are quite ordinary, but they are suitable for daily use. Good horses are not available here. When you grow up a little bit, I will have someone pick one for you."

Yang Lijun talked as she walked, causing the broker in front of her to take a sneak peek.

To him, the horses in the county were already excellent: tall, with bright coats, good endurance, solid bones, and some were high-grade horses.

A good horse costs hundreds of taels.

If the "good horse" that this lady mentioned is true, it is probably the valuable BMW in the capital that horse dealers talk about.

Thinking of this, I dare not be negligent.

"Is it Dark Clouds Stepping on Snow, the Thousand Mile Divine Horse?"

Huang Mulin has read the Romance of the Three Kingdoms and has always been particularly fond of Zhang Fei's mount.

"Oh, little girl, you know about the black horse?"

Not only Yang Lijun, but also Old Wang was a little surprised.

"Yeah, it's completely black, but its hooves are white. It's a very beautiful horse!"

"Wu Zhui is a famous horse from outside the Great Wall. It is wild and hard to tame. There are not many of them in the world. I will ask someone to find out. If there is a foal, I will get it for you."

It was rare that her daughter was so interested in something, so Yang Lijun said she would try her best to find it.

She gave Lao Wang a look, and Lao Wang nodded in acceptance.

"No, mother. It's very expensive. I was just thinking about it."

Huang Mulin knew that this kind of famous horse was not only hard to come by, but also extremely valuable.

"It's okay, just look for it first, you may not meet him."

Huang Mulin thought about it and realized that this was true. He also felt that it was probably impossible to meet her, so he did not continue the topic.

However, Huang Haolin and the agent were very surprised by the conversation between the mother and daughter, and for a moment they were a little suspicious of Yang Lijun's origins.

Huang Haolin in particular had always thought that Yang Lijun was just an embroidery shop owner who had the backing of a certain force. After today's conversation, he suddenly felt that Yang Lijun was the "force" itself.

The broker led them to the best stable, and Huang Mulin chose a dark brown stallion with a white spot on its forehead, shiny hair all over its body, strong and powerful limbs. It was just an adult, had been domesticated, and had a relatively mild temper.

One hundred and sixty taels.

Huang Haolin was shocked by the price. A strong adult ox only cost thirteen taels of silver.

Old Wang paid the money and left with the horse.

"I'll ask Lao Wang to find someone to customize the carriage. When you need a carriage, ask Lao Wang to deliver it and the coachman."

"Thank you, mother."

Huang Mulin accepted Yang Lijun's kindness and decided to repay her in the future.

Taking the girl and the boy shopping was an experience Yang Lijun had never had before, although she had fantasized about it before. It was fresh and interesting.

They tried all kinds of snacks from roadside vendors and bought some that they thought were good to take back home for their families to try.

At noon, Huang Mulin went to the famous Jinkelai Restaurant in the county for a meal. She found that the dishes here were not better than those of Weimancheng, and were even more ordinary. She became more confident about the sales of her fermented bean curd.

After lunch, Lao Wang took them back to town.

Huang Bo and others listened to Huang Haolin's vivid description of everything in the county, and they also felt a yearning in their hearts.

I also learned that Yang Lijun and Huang Mulin had bought a lot of servants and even horses. I didn't know what to say.

However, if my daughter/sister wants to buy it, no one will object.

A few days passed quickly, and He Yian and Jiang Dayou made an appointment to come home.

He Yian had to first make the finished furniture design provided by Huang Mulin for actual use, and all expenses would be paid by Huang Bo.

After the house is built and all the furniture is put in, Huang Bo will invite Tang Qian to attend the housewarming party. Regardless of whether Tang Qian is interested or not, Huang Bo will buy a shop in Linhai Town to sell furniture.

Huang Bo provided the money and materials, He Yian provided the effort and technology, and He Yian took 60% of the profits from the transaction, while Huang Bo took 40%.

He Yian disagreed and insisted that Huang Bo take 6 and he take 4. Later, there was no other way and both sides backed down and split the profit 50-50.

As for Jiang Dayou, he was willing to let Huang Bo manage the land.

Huang Bo was very happy.

Jiang Dayou is a good farmer and a hardworking person, but he doesn't like to talk much and has a rather dull personality. It would be very suitable for him to help manage the fields.

Huang Bo said that he would buy the land in the next few days, and Huang Dachuan would help him select the farmhands. Jiang Dayou only needed to be responsible for supervising the work of the farmhands, paying attention to the growth and protection of the soybeans, arranging people to guard the land according to the situation, or building fences to prevent the fields from being destroyed by wild beasts.

If there is a problem with the seedlings, it must be dealt with as soon as possible, including harvesting them when they mature and then planting new seedlings.

The monthly wage is five taels of silver, and is settled on the first day of each month.

When Jiang Dayou heard the salary of five taels of silver, he was shocked and kept saying it was too high.

Huang Bo didn't wait for him to refuse and started to talk about a bunch of things that Jiang Dayou needed to be responsible for, such as buying seeds, reclaiming wasteland, buying fertilizers, managing farmhands, etc.

When it comes to farming, Jiang Dayou's attention was diverted. He didn't realize that he was bypassed by Huang Bo until he left Huang Bo's house, which made He Yian laugh.

Huang Bo had indeed asked Huang Dachuan to handle the land purchase matter.

A few days ago, the family measured the area to be built for the house and workshop. Huang Mulin said that the 21.3 acres of land purchased last time would all be used to build the house and workshop.

She suggested buying some more, so Huang Bo went to find Huang Dachuan again and bought another 100 acres of wasteland near the end of the village.

There is wasteland and a river outside the end of the village, and it takes more than ten kilometers to find other villages.

The villagers in this village usually cultivate land within or around the village. Not many people go to cultivate wasteland outside the village. The main reason is that the population is small, and if there is too much land to cultivate, there will be no one to plant it. In addition, five taels of silver per mu of land is not something that an average family can easily afford.

Of course, Huang Dachuan was stunned by Huang Bo's lavish land purchase behavior. After asking, he learned that Huang Bo wanted to use all the land he bought last time to build houses and workshops, and would then have to hire long-term workers to work in the village all year round. He was simply scared.

Huang Bo is really rich!

"Bozi..." Huang Dachuan asked him tremblingly: "Tell me the truth, have you done anything bad?"

"Uncle Okawa!"

Huang Bo didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so he had to tell him the truth: "My fourth son, Jinlin, went to sell a few recipes a few days ago. In addition, Jinlin has come up with a new seasoning, and our family has already signed a contract with Mr. Tang of Wei Man Cheng in town, so there is no need to worry about sales."

The smell filled the city, and Huang Dachuan knew it.

He took a long puff of cigarette, shivering, looked at Huang Bo's serious eyes, and said, "I'll go to the government office tomorrow."

"Okay, thank you uncle." Huang Bo took out two ingots of ten taels of silver and handed them to Huang Dachuan, "Give these to uncle to take care of things."

Huang Dachuan took it and walked away trembling.

The officials came very quickly this time, mainly because Huang Bo bought so many acres of land one after another, which had never happened in recent decades. Huang Dachuan specifically explained to the officials that Huang Bo was a foodie at the dock and was familiar with the shopkeeper Tang of Wei Mancheng. He made a lot of money by selling his own recipes and wanted to buy the land.

Fields are the roots of farmers.
