At the end of the day, Wei Chen and Hongxia came back.
At that time, everyone hadn't had lunch yet, and the two of them happened to be here over the meal.
When Zhang Jing and Dai Xi saw people, they went to ask about the situation. They had a lot of contact with Wei Cheng on weekdays, so they let Hongxia go.
Hongxia came to Lin Su's side, and Huang Yu got up to give her a place, and went to the back kitchen to add dishes and chopsticks.
"What's up? Did they find Butcher Zhang?" Lin Su asked anxiously.
She was also very worried, after all, it is not a good situation to run into snow in a carriage.
In case something really happened, Zhang Jing would definitely blame herself. By that time, she would be mildly ill, and she would be afraid to blame herself for the rest of her life.
Falling heart disease!
Hongxia gently shook her head, took the hot water brought by Dahai's daughter-in-law, thanked her softly, and said.
"Don't worry, Zhang Tuhu is okay. Wei Wei and I walked along the official road to Shanghe Village. Halfway through, I ran into Ling An of the Ling Family Caravan. He just said that the caravan was passing here and wanted to stay. "
"Ling family? Accommodation?" Lin Su was surprised, a little confused.
This looks like... It has nothing to do with Zhang Butcher, right
Hongxia didn't sell it, took a sip of hot water, and continued.
"Tuhu Zhang and the others arrived in Shanghe Village yesterday afternoon. Because of the bad weather, Guangyu and his wife kept them away, so they are now in the inn, which is very safe."
"call-"
Lin Su sighed exaggeratedly when he heard this, and nodded.
It's good to be in the inn, as long as the people are safe, it's fine. Turning to look at Zhang Jing, although her eyes are still red, it is clear that she is in good spirits.
Obviously, I also learned about the safety of my brother and sister's family.
"Sit down and eat. The bean buns have just been steamed, and you two have a good fortune." Lin Su said softly, and Wei Yu slightly arched his hands at her and sat down at Dai Xi's table.
Lin Su ate a bean bun, and suddenly remembered what Hongxia had just said, and touched her with her hand, said.
"You just said that the Ling's caravan would come over tomorrow night?"
"Yes. It may be late, let's see how this snow is." Hongxia said softly.
"Who is leading the team? Ling Muyang?"
"No." Hongxia shook her head, put down her chopsticks, and replied intently, "But Ling Erye is in the team and will come over tomorrow."
Uh…
Ling Muyang is in the caravan
What's the situation
Hongxia looked around, but said nothing.
Lin Su understood immediately when he saw it, and stopped questioning. He put a beanbag in her and said softly.
"Eat quickly, go back to the room and rest a while after eating, riding a horse is too tired."
"Yes, ma'am." Hongxia responded and picked up her chopsticks and continued to eat.
After lunch, everyone cleared the table and continued to make beanbags.
After three hundred catties of bread, there was still bean paste and not enough noodles, so I made a two-tile jar again, and I hurried to pack it out while I was not busy.
Everyone heard what Hongxia said just now.
The inn is going to receive guests, and it will start tomorrow.
This is the first time to receive guests after opening.
It is said that there are still a lot of people, and it is necessary to open two north-south kangs, one suite, and two triple rooms.
Even if it counts, there are sixty people, not young and old.
The face was reconciled, Lin Subao took a while, looked at Zhang Jing, and said.
"Take everyone to pack it out quickly. So that they will come over tomorrow, and they can save energy for breakfast the day after tomorrow. Take advantage of the snow and cleanness these days, pack more, and then we will save energy.
"I know my sister-in-law, I'm greedy for a little bit of darkness today. After wrapping these, I will wrap 300 jin of noodles. There are many people anyway." Zhang Jing said softly
.
Everyone has no objection, anyway, do more, and be lighter in the future, it is their job.
Lin Su put the reunion ball on a plate, said hello to Huang Yu and left.
Huang Yu continued to do things, knowing why she was there, and the few wives who saw each other just didn't see them. After all, they are the boss and do whatever they want.
Lin Su came to Hongxia's room. Hongxia, who had just washed and changed clothes, sat on the kang.
Seeing Lin Su coming over, she was busy getting up and was stopped by her.
"No, you just sit down."
While speaking, she also came to the edge of the Kang, and sat down sideways.
The Kang is very large, and there is no problem sleeping with three people. On weekdays, she and Huang Yu are more than enough.
The kang cave has just been burned, and the kang is not very hot, so it feels more comfortable to sit on the mattress.
Take off your shoes on the kang, sit cross-legged, look at her and ask.
"What's the matter? How did Ling's businessmen go south this time?"
"The slave servant heard Ling An's words, it seems that this time the Ling family walked two caravans, Ling Erye completely took over and separated the Ling family caravan from Lingyun Villa."
When Lin Su heard this, he didn't say anything for a long time. He took a deep breath and frowned before speaking slowly.
"Then Ling Muyang went to the capital last year, this year..."
"Not going anymore." Hongxia shook her head, "Ling An raised a mouth slightly, as if Ling Erye had gone on his own and separated. The canned food business is monopolized by him, so this year, both the capital and the south will be delivered."
"It seems... I have to build a few more workshops to let this grandfather sell well." Lin Su said **.
Hongxia didn't respond, but her tired face indicated that she was a little tired.
Lin Su went down to the ground and put on shoes without interrupting her time, said.
"I'm leaving now, you are tired for a while."
"Yes, boss." Hongxia finished speaking and wanted to go to the ground, but was stopped by Lin Su.
"Don't send me away, you are not an outsider, go to sleep." He said, walking out of the house and closing the door thoughtfully for her.
Hongxia yawned, took off her coat, and lay on the bed with only her coat.
The temperature in the kang cave came up during the talk, and it was warm and very comfortable to lie down.
Covered the quilt, closed my eyes contentedly, rolled over and fell asleep deeply...
When Ling Muchuan came back that night, Lin Su was not in the house.
There happened to be a family in the village who wanted to go to the county to be with his son, so the seven tiled houses and ten acres of middle farm wanted to get rid of them.
Lin Su was just short of workshops, which was sent here, so she naturally couldn't miss it.
Listening to Wei Chen's report, Ling Muchuan waved his hands away, and sat in the room by himself.
In the direction of the village, Lin Su, Dai Xi, and Dahai's wife bargained with the elderly.
The medium-sized fields are at a fixed price, four taels of silver per mu, which cannot be said.
The main thing is the house.
They want to sell forty taels of seven tiled houses, but there is still room for a drop in the price, so Lin Su is lobbying.
"Old man, don’t rush to refuse. I’m going to buy the house together with a one-time cash payment. Do you think this house is forty taels, is it a bit expensive? I’ll build it myself in spring, and forty taels can be paid. Gai Ding is fine."
Lin Su deliberately said something pitiful. The old man looked at her, sighed heavily, sniffed, and said nothing.
Seeing that he was silent, Lin Su continued to strike while the iron was hot.
"Uncle, do you think this is good? Forty taels of ten acres of medium farmland, if you sell this house, three
I want fifteen taels, otherwise... I will only buy land. "
"Oh, little lady, you are the only one who runs an inn, and you can do the same for five taels of silver... Are you bargaining?" The old man was a little speechless.
He wanted to sell these things, and when he learned that someone was going to buy them and he was still able to give cash, he naturally wanted to sell them at a high price.
But now people talk about buying land and not buying a house, then this...
The old man's daughter-in-law is obviously not in the house, but she can't be anxious now.
After all, women couldn't hold them better than men, and Lin Su said more confidently after catching a look in his eyes.
"Uncle, seventy taels, seventy taels of land and seventy taels for the house. If you sell them, I will give you the money now. Let's go to Lizheng to complete the procedures. The land deeds and house deeds must be renamed, and I will get the money."
"Hey, didn't you return seventy-five taels just now?" The old man was dumbfounded for a moment. He didn't expect that the price would be reduced in such a short time.
And it's still five taels of silver!
Five taels, you can live for two years in a farmhouse.
Dahai's daughter-in-law lowered her head and did not look at the old man. She was just a matchmaker. As for whether to buy or not, it was a matter for the owner.
Lin Su looked at the excited old man, pretending to be helpless, shook his head and said.
"Uncle, you also said that it was just now. I'll forget it. This name change requires a fee. You can't let Lizheng run away in a cold weather. Don't you say it? I'm paying the money. I'm afraid that 50 taels of silver will not be enough. Right."
"Forget it, I'm still more than 80 taels. How about you give me the money if you don't give you 80 taels?"
"That, that... That's fine, forget it. Seventy taels is seven... Seventy taels." The old man said hurriedly.
Upon seeing this, Lin Su looked at Dai Xi softly.
"In this way, you will get the money when you go back now. My uncle and I will go to Lizheng to sign the paper so that both parties will have proof."
"I see, sister-in-law."
After Lin Su finished speaking, he looked at the old man and said again.
"Uncle, when will you move out of Random Clam? I won't push people. Didn't you just say seven days, it will be fine for a few more days, don't worry."
"Oh, can't you be in a hurry? My daughter-in-law just got off her cat when she saw her. She has to go and take care of her." The old man said as he got up and wore a cotton-padded jacket.
Lin Su didn't understand what it meant when the cat got off, so he looked at Dahai's daughter-in-law.
The latter approached, lowered his voice, and said.
"His daughter-in-law is about to give birth, so she has to go and take care of her confinement and grandson."
"Oh." Lin Su nodded slowly, counting as knowing.
Dahai's wife is a witness, and the three of them went to Lizheng's house together. Simply speaking, Dai Xi came over with the silver.
Li Zheng's family had paper and pen and wrote the notes. The two sides pressed their handprints. Dai Xi put the silver on the table and said.
"Uncle, trouble you to point it, seventy-two. Uncle will give it to the uncle after finishing the order."
"Ah, that's fine." Li was just a talkative, nodded and opened the purse, and poured out the money in it.
One fifty taels, two ten taels, no more, no less.
The old man looked at Yinzi and said in tears.
"I have worked hard all my life, it's worth so little money, I haven't even bought the board yet!"
Li was looking at him and said while pretending to be silver.
"Second brother, don't sigh. Your son has a small business in the county. It's hard to say what the board is. Keep this money."
"Oh, no nest. Going to my son's house, there is no comfort in my own home. There must be a place for a pinch of sticks to beg, no more, no more."
As the old man said, he packed the silver and left the house lonely...
