Chapter 134: How to love
"No, dad, you misunderstood me.
I just want to remind you that when the mutual market starts, the piece of wasteland you bought before will no longer be called wasteland, but will increase in price as the mutual market goes on.
You see, the town will no longer sell wasteland on the roadside casually tomorrow. Even if it is sold, it will no longer be at a low price. If it is done, it will catch up with the price of the real shops in the town, and it will only happen if there are people with connections.
Buy it at the designated place.”
Liu Jingye thought to himself: And you have hoarded so much all at once, do you know the value of it? I think Zhenting will be so regretful that he will slap his thigh with regret and curse himself for not buying a few acres in advance.
Liu Jingye continued:
"What's even more rare is that there are many benefits to opening a shop in a village. Just like those roadside villages you have seen along the way, merchants and merchants can come to the village to rest and eat. Those villages have not been designated by the imperial court as lowly merchants among scholars, farmers, industry and commerce, and they are still farmers.
Explain that no matter how many shops you want to build on that wasteland, all those doing business in the shop you sell will be farmers.
Then do you understand that because of this difference and the fact that farmers do not affect their business, the food shop built on the wasteland in our village will be more popular? Don't sell it randomly!"
Liu Jianye ran around the house in circles, trying to evade Liu Laozhu's pursuit and smash him into pieces to finish his words.
It's just that being able to speak is not as good as being able to listen.
Before Mrs. Xu and her party came back, when Liu Jingye inquired about the situation in the wasteland, Liu Laozhu told his eldest son his inner plan. He told him:
“On the one hand, I wanted to buy that piece of wasteland to help the people in the village and leave a good reputation for our family.
Then I happened to buy so many acres of wasteland. I originally thought: Your brother has always been like a duck in school. It is better to expect him to further his education than to rely on his grandchildren. This way, at least he can deceive himself. After all, he may not be able to do it.
If you live until the day when your grandchildren take their exams, they won’t be mad to death if they can’t read water splashes and don’t know the results.
So I made a plan with your mother before I came here. I wanted to leave two huts and shops in that wasteland for your uncle and your third uncle. If they refuse to take them, I will take them back to your grandparents for their retirement.
From now on, our family will cover all your grandma's expenses, so we can no longer burden your uncle.
I will also take advantage of the mutual market to bring the large animals from your third uncle's shop to my place to sell them on my behalf, helping your third uncle earn some money.
Besides, I want to leave a few rooms for your brother."
Liu Laozhu said from the bottom of his heart:
"I opened a shop for you in this city a few years ago. You know exactly how much it will cost.
When you came here, your mother said, "If your brother suffers a little loss, he will suffer a little. He will stay by our side, but we don't expect him to have a big future. He will have enough to eat and use."
What do you think about leaving a few shops in the village, letting him do something on his own, or renting them out, so that he can't afford to raise his wife and children when he gets married?"
After Liu Jingye heard what he said, he said with a smile on his face as if he had said it casually: "Dad, I think it's a bad thing to say, but it wasn't like this on the day the family was separated. You can't buy that piece of wasteland as you did when you bought it."
If the amount of money is calculated, it is said that my brother is at a disadvantage, but why do I feel that it is me who is at a disadvantage?"
At this time, the eldest son of the Liu family analyzed the value of the land again. The more reasonable the analysis was, the more Liu Laozhu became aware that the eldest son was unwilling to accept it and wished he could redistribute the land according to the estimated value after appreciation.
Home.
He is not dead yet, so he is fighting for it for fear of losing money. The old man in the family is like a big fool. He has never been jealous of his brother's shop in the city in these years.
Liu Laozhu didn't understand. Compared with his eldest brother and third brother, he was already nothing compared to his eldest brother and third brother in terms of supporting the elderly and his brothers and sisters. How could he give birth to someone who was even worse than him?
How could he have thought that his eldest son was smarter than his father before? He was really blind.
Don't get angry immediately.
At this time, Liu Laozhu covered his heart and was so angry that he shook his body and cursed: "People are raising children to protect themselves from old age, but I am raising children to protect them from old age!"
I have never been so disappointed. The core of my eldest son has broken. I am even more disappointed than when I didn't chase him to the inn that day and didn't get him straw sandals to put on.
After all, at that time, I was still making excuses for my eldest son. I always thought that my son didn't know anything about him, so I could blame him for being kicked in the head by being nice to the villagers for no reason.
But now that everything was revealed, he came to this conclusion.
The boys in the village couldn't stand it anymore.
Being a straight-forward person, I felt sorry for Uncle Li Zheng who was so angry that he shook him off and directly said: "Come out and see what you have done these days. Don't think that we don't know that you are causing trouble and not allowing the purchase of goods.
Uncle Li Zheng was almost mad at you."
The one with a relatively mellow temperament also pushed Liu Jingye and said, "Brother Jingye, please go back first. Let's all reserve this big room together. We want to sleep, so don't make any noise now."
Liu Jingye was not stupid at all. He was chased and beaten in circles by his father and never left the house. He was worried about running outside to argue with his father, in case his father was too old and confused, and some other content in his excited words was revealed by other people in the inn.
hear.
But he really doesn't want to leave right now, and he still has a lot of things to say, and they are the most important things. For example, he wants to ask his father:
Where did you get the news about the mutual market and the early purchase of wasteland? This person has a lot of connections, and looking at the essence through this matter, this person must have internal relations with the new Zhenbei General's Mansion.
Dad, you must pay attention to getting along well with others, and don't try to pick it up when you introduce it to me later. I'll prepare some gifts here. You can take them back as soon as possible. It's best to mention that I gave them to you. From now on, these will be yours.
Brothers should come and go frequently.
Yes, it was these details that Liu Jingye wanted to know most, not that he rushed to the inn to treat the villagers to a meal before leaving, as he and his wife said.
What can the villagers ask for? Even if he wants to make friends now, in Liu Jingye's opinion, there is no need to spend much money. To put it bluntly, with his understanding of the villagers' vision, he can just hand out bags of potatoes to each household.
It's such a joy to be able to miss him.
So Liu Jingye didn't want to leave, so he grabbed his Aunt Xu while being pushed.
Now I know how to be polite.
"Auntie, please persuade my father. He doesn't understand what I mean at all. You see, before I finish speaking, he is pouting and scolding me. What are you doing? You have misunderstood me in the first place. I
I came here to explain..."
Xu Youcang suddenly grabbed Liu Jingye and threw him out. Don't drag his mother.
Xu Youcang thought: Don't explain, just listen to what I have to say first.
Xu Laosan said two concise sentences:
"Without my mother, your family would not have known in advance that Xin'er had purchased the wasteland."
Seeing Liu Jingye's eyes widening, Xu Youcang didn't understand. Until now, he still looked down on others and didn't believe him. It was obvious that he didn't think down of his family deep down.
However, Xu Laosan didn’t care. The second sentence said:
"Before, Uncle Li Zheng and Aunt Li lent my family a lot of food without saying a word. Our Xu family will always bear the debt of Uncle and Aunt Li, but now they have paid back not a penny. If you have the written receipt, I hope you know. Don't do it again.
Randomly biting my family, borrowing money and not paying it back."
Xu Youcang finished speaking in a serious and straightforward tone. Compared to the previous scene where Liu Laozhu was beating his son randomly, the atmosphere at this moment was even stiffer than then.
