MTL - Hot Farmer’s Wife: Buying a Husband for the Farm

   Chapter 426 426 Shopaholic

   Wait until the person is far away.

   "Puchi--" One big and one small laughed at the same time.

  Lin Xiaoyue didn't know this. After crossing the street, she quickly entered a deserted alley.

   Make sure that there is no one around, and then quickly put all the large and small bags on his body into the space ring.

   When she came out of the other alley, there was still some package in her hand.

   breathed a sigh of relief, Lin Xiaoyue wiped away a sweat, and then went in the direction of Liu Mansion.

When    arrived at Liu Mansion, Lin Xiaoyue arranged the carriage and the people and asked them to find Liu Wuji and Lin Xiaozhi before they went to the backyard.

   As soon as he sat down and washed his face, Li Wan came.

   Seeing Lin Xiaoyue's face in a daze, Li Wan was a little surprised.

   "I heard from the servants in the front yard that you are back, what's the matter?" Don't you mean you can't come today, so you want to go shopping with the old man and Xiaozhi?

   Lin Xiaoyue glanced at Li Wan resentfully.

   "Those two who have no conscience, treat me like a bully. Fortunately, I slipped fast." He said with a pitiful expression.

   "Pfft—" Li Wan was amused.

   "Master National Teacher, his temperament has indeed changed a lot." He gave Lin Xiaoyue a comforting look.

  Lin Xiaoyue still looked aggrieved.

   Twisted the handkerchief again and wiped his face.

   "It's a shame that I was thinking about quitting my job and playing with them for a day. It turned out to be like this to me."

  Li Wan couldn't hold back again, and almost burst out laughing again.

  Fortunately, he covered his mouth in time to stop it.

  Lin Xiaoyue looked sadly at Li Wan.

   "Sister, you're still smiling."

  Li Wan endured it, "I won't laugh, I won't laugh anymore." But as soon as he finished speaking, the corner of his mouth broke.

  Lin Xiaoyue:——

   "Cough - Master National Teacher has a childlike temperament now, and he knows that he is young, so don't bother with them." Li Wan suppressed her smile and explained to Lin Xiaoyue.

   Lin Xiaoyue sighed.

   "I know." He said, wringing out the wet handkerchief and drying it on the shelf where the washbasin was placed.

   "My sister came to see me because of the industrial park?" Lin Xiaoyue glanced at Li Wan and walked towards the outer hall.

   After chatting with King Anyang yesterday, she told her aunt about it.

   Sister-in-law was even more excited than she was, saying that she would definitely arrange things.

  Because of the rush of time yesterday, she couldn't explain things in detail.

  I came to Liu Mansion today, but I had time to have a good chat with her.

   "Yeah!" Li Wan said quickly. A light flashed in his eyes.

  Because there may be another war between Chu and Jin next year, the fast-rising expansion plan has been suspended.

   On Zhuangzi, the Chiwu Army is now practicing every day. Except for the sausage and bacon workshop, the rest of the workshops have been closed.

   On each village, there is very little work now, there are Manager Fang and Henry Zhang staring, and she hardly has to worry about it.

   On the contrary, this new plan proposed by my sister-in-law gave her a new opportunity to use it.

   Moreover, she is also very optimistic about this industrial park plan.

   If this is done, the Liu family will be able to go further, and at the same time, it will be a great thing for the country and the people.

   "Okay, then let's talk about something specific." Lin Xiaoyue replied.

   After sitting down at the coffee table, Lin Xiaoyue told Li Wan about her specific thoughts.

  Li Wan listened very carefully and took a lot of notes.

   "Your Highness has promised to let the magistrate give us convenience. The key now is to determine the land first." Lin Xiaoyue said.

   "Yes." Li Wan nodded.

   "I went to see that part of the wharf. The previous plan was to build a larger workshop, but the selected area was barely enough." He continued.

   "But now, if you want to build an industrial park, the land will not be enough."

  Li Wan said, frowning.

   "The wharf itself occupies a large area, and there are not many lots that can be expanded next to it. In addition, the long river has to be prevented from rising, so there are even fewer lots to choose from."

  Lin Xiaoyue also frowned.

   "What about the farther locations? It will be possible to build an avenue that leads directly to the wharf." It is indeed very important to prevent the long river from rising. At least make sure that the industrial park will never be flooded.

  Li Wan thought for a while, her eyes suddenly brightened.

   "There is a place!"

   "Where?" Lin Xiaoyue's expression became more relaxed.

   "I can't tell you this clearly, otherwise, let's take you to the scene to see it." Li Wan thought for a while.

   That place is a large wasteland, plus some farmland, the site is definitely large enough.

   is to trim and plan, it is estimated that a lot of effort.

"it is good."

   As soon as they said it, the two asked their servants to prepare the carriage, and then they left the Liu residence.

   Near the pier, Lin Xiaoyue was led by Li Wan and saw the place she said.

   "This place is relatively high. I have asked the people in the town, and even if the long river is flooded, it has never come up."

   "This boundary monument is the record of the highest water level at Qingshi Town Pier over the years." After speaking, Li Wan pointed at Lin Xiaoyue to a stone monument not far away.

  Lin Xiaoyue looked at the vast wasteland that stretched as far as the eye could see, imagining the scene of an industrial park here in the future, and was excited.

   "This place is great!" He said immediately.

   "After you go back, send someone over to measure the stretch of wire."

  Lin Xiaoyue looked at Li Wan.

   "Attention, we want all that large wasteland. And the fields at the back are also included." Lin Xiaoyue pointed to the distance.

   Li Wan was shocked.

   "Will the area be bigger?" He opened his mouth with hesitation.

   "Buying and selling wasteland also requires money. If the place is too large, it will cost a lot of money just to buy the land." In the future, workshops and staff dormitories have to be built.

  Although there is still a lot of money left in the book of Liu Mansion, it is also getting more and more money from the Liu family workshop.

   But as Zhuangzi’s workshop stopped, the Chiwu army did not go to the ground very much, and Zhuangzi’s expenses were not small.

  Lin Xiaoyue smiled, "Since it is an industrial park, the larger the area, the better."

   "As our next biggest project, the industrial park must be done well at any cost." Lin Xiaoyue looked at Li Wan.

   "When I came back this time, the emperor rewarded me with 10,000 taels of gold. If there is not enough silver on Liu Mansion's account, I will fill in the money."

  10,000 taels of gold can be exchanged for 100,000 taels of silver, which is equivalent to the purchasing power of the 21st century and is worth hundreds of millions.

   Together with the wealth accumulated by Liufu, it should be possible to build an industrial park.

  If the money is really not enough, she will go to Liang Yu or Lord Zhou again.

  With these two people, things will be done.

  Industrial Park, after the completion, the Liu family will not have to worry about the future.

   Li Wan was a little shocked by Lin Xiaoyue's courage.

   Immediately, I was full of admiration in my heart.

   "Okay." Then he responded.

  Lin Xiaoyue then looked at Li Wan, "Why don't you go and take a look?" She suddenly smiled.

   Li Wan was taken aback.

   "Hmm." Answered again.

   Then, under the leadership of the housekeeper, the two men walked towards the wasteland.

   The wasteland has uneven ground, overgrown with weeds, and occasionally animals pass by.

  But Lin Xiaoyue and Li Wan were not afraid, instead they checked the situation of the wasteland and discussed some follow-up plans.

   "Let's not say anything else, it will take a lot of manpower to tidy up this place." Li Wan said to Lin Xiaoyue as she walked.

   "Well. It's a pity, the Chiwu Army can't come to help. We can only pay extra to hire someone." Lin Xiaoyue replied.

   "After the land is purchased, the planning drawings will be produced."

   "After delineating the area, start construction according to the area."

   "The production of sausage bacon and pepper products has not stopped, and these workshops are not in a hurry to rebuild for the time being."

   "In the industrial park, priority will be given to building workshops for the production of meat tenderizers and vermicelli." Lin Xiaoyue said.

  Li Wan nodded.

   "A total of 100,000 catties of sweet potatoes and potato seeds will be sent out, and many sweet potatoes and potatoes will be produced in Anyang County in the coming year."

   "And both things make meat tenderizers and vermicelli."

   "Let's not say anything else, the prince can help us get rid of a large amount of goods." Lin Xiaoyue smiled.

   Li Wan and Lin Xiaoyue looked at each other and nodded with a smile.

   "More than that, the consumption of noodles and potatoes in the chain stores is staggering."

   "As soon as there are more potatoes and sweet potatoes, each branch will no longer have to worry about running out of stock."

   She is also a big fan of hot and sour noodles and wolf-toothed potatoes. When she has time, she will buy them at Shangdu Kuai.

   The unit price of fast-growing snacks is not expensive. Even if sweet potatoes and potatoes become common in the future, it will not have much impact on the fast-growing business.

  Lin Xiaoyue nodded.

   "The potatoes in the market will come out next year, let's go to Zhuangzi, and there will be no need to plant potatoes in the next year."

   "Hire some people and plant all kinds of peppers and sweet potatoes in the field.

   "The opening of Chili peppers can be delayed for two years. Taking advantage of this bonus period during these two years, we can make more money."

  Li Wan nodded aside.

   I feel that it is very meaningful to come to Dashi Village and do these things with my sister-in-law.

   Because the wasteland was too large, Lin Xiaoyue was unable to take Li Wan to the end of the tour.

   Considering that noon was approaching, Lin Xiaoyue chose to turn back halfway.

   When they returned to Liu Mansion, both her and Li Wan's skirts, shoes and socks were soiled.

  The two of them went back to their rooms to freshen up, and then went to the dining room to eat together.

   In the afternoon, Lin Xiaoyue went back to the study to continue working.

   Until the servants came to report that Liu Wuji and Lin Xiaozhi had returned.

   Lin Xiaoyue just put down what she was doing and went out to see the grandfather and grandson.

   "Have you finished shopping?" Lin Xiaoyue asked with a smile when she saw one big and one small coming towards her at the gate of the courtyard.

   "It's done shopping! Sister, my grandfather bought me a lot of delicious and fun food! And for you and your mother!" Lin Xiaozhi ran quickly and almost rushed into Lin Xiaoyue's arms.

   Finally stopped in front of Lin Xiaoyue.

   Then, he turned his head to look at his grandfather.

   He is already a big kid, so he can't move into his sister's arms.

  Liu Wuji nodded with a look of relief.

  Lin Xiaoyue saw this, as if she understood something.

   bent down, reached out and pinched Lin Xiaozhi's face.

   "Oh? Then why didn't I see it?" He said, looking behind the two of them.

   "It's all in the carriage at the gate." Liu Wuji said suddenly with a smile.

   "There are too many things, so I won't take them down. Later, let's take that carriage directly back to Dashi Village."

  Lin Xiaoyue was taken aback.

   "It's done. Then let's go." Immediately said.

   Li Xiao wasn't here anyway, so she didn't have to wait for him to leave work and go together.

   As for the elder sister, she has to discuss the industrial park with Mr. Fang and the others, and it is estimated that she will not be able to leave for the time being.

  Haha, she just slipped away.

   "Okay! Sister, let's go!" Lin Xiaozhi said cheerfully.

  The little hand grabbed Lin Xiaoyue's hand, and regardless of the idea of ​​a big child or a small child, he pulled Lin Xiaoyue and walked forward quickly.

  The gifts on the carriage, although they were money from my grandfather, most of them were chosen by him.

   He couldn't wait to show his sister the gift he chose for her.

   "Hehe, let's go!" Lin Xiaoyue replied with a smile.

   Also like a child, he left quickly.

   Soon, several people arrived outside Liu Mansion.

   Then, as soon as he opened the carriage curtain, Lin Xiaoyue was stunned by what he saw.

  Her brother and grandfather, this is to bring all the things from the street vendors.

  This stack of cloth bags and boxes almost filled the carriage.

   "Sister, what's here is mine and you!" Lin Xiaozhi didn't know what Lin Xiaoyue was thinking, and smiled, pointing to the things she bought for Lin Xiaoyue.

   "There are mother, brother-in-law, sister Wan, brother Henry Zhang and nephew Qing'er."

   "And Shanshan and Fan Teng, we also bought gifts for them." Lin Xiaozhi said with a smug look on his face.

  Lin Xiaoyue looked embarrassed.

   "All the money spent?" Then he turned his head to look at Liu Wuji, who was beside him.

   She seriously suspected that her grandfather must have run out of money.

  Otherwise, the things pulled back from the carriage might be more than that.

  What is a shopaholic, her grandfather is definitely.

  200 taels of silver, equivalent to the purchasing power of the 21st century, is 200,000 yuan.

   If she was defeated all day, she could only give a thumbs up.

   "No." Liu Wuji replied.

   Seeing her granddaughter stunned, she smiled embarrassedly.

   "There are more than ten taels left." He said.

   It's almost gone. Fortunately, at the last minute, he found that the situation was not right, and he stayed for about ten taels.

   He still has to stay in Qingshi Town for more than half a month, so it's hard to ask his granddaughter and daughter for money.

  The rest of the money, he wants to keep for his little grandson to buy delicious food.

After   , he would take his little grandson to and from school from time to time, how could he do it without money in his pocket?

   However, more than ten taels of silver are a little less.

  We have to find another opportunity to play mahjong with others.

  Lin Xiaoyue quickly showed an expression of "as expected".

   More than two hundred taels came out, and more than ten taels went back.

   Well, at least some left, right?

   "There are too many things on the carriage, plus the three of us, the horses are struggling." Lin Xiaoyue said.

   then turned around and looked at a servant standing at the gate of Liu Mansion.

   "Go get another carriage." He said again.

   "Yes!" The servant quickly withdrew.

   After a while, when the new carriage was brought in, Lin Xiaoyue took one big and one small to get on the carriage.

   Afterwards, the two servants got into the carriages respectively and drove the carriages back to Dashi Village with people and goods.

   Along the way, one big and one small are still very happy.

   I can't wait to get home as soon as possible and share their results today with everyone.

   Lin Xiaoyue felt a little disapproval in her heart, but after thinking about it, she suppressed her thoughts and emotions.

   Grandpa only came home, which is not always the case. She can't be too strict.

  Otherwise——

  This morning's lesson is right in front of you.
