Chapter 329
() Seeing that Mother's face was no longer red, Li-shi saw that her gaze was a bit penetrating. Li-shi put down his fat hands, realized that he had done something stupid again, and smiled flatteringly, "Mother."
Zhulan snorted coldly, "You said I haven't seen Mrs. Zhao and Mrs. Dong for a long time, and I suddenly miss them so much?"
Mrs. Li was in crisis, "Mom, what do you want to eat today?"
Zhulan kept smiling, "I want to eat you!"
Mrs. Li looked down at herself, stretched out her arms and rolled up her sleeves in pain, "Mother, can you see the flesh on my arms?"
Zhulan rolled her eyes in her heart, Li Shi is amazing, now she can follow her words, Zhulan nodded Li Shi's forehead angrily, "You've learned a lot!"
Li Shi smiled foolishly, "Mother taught well."
Zhulan glared at Mrs. Li, Mrs. Li has a good relationship with the daughter-in-law of the merchant next door, and Mrs. Li has also learned a lot from her!
Mrs. Li covered her forehead and saw that Mother had gone out, and laughed, as long as Mother had her in her heart, Mrs. Zhao and Mrs. Dong stood aside!
Xinghua kept her head down. She used to think that the eldest wife was stupid, but now she thinks that the eldest wife is also a smart person. Although the eldest wife is easy to be confused in other places, she can please her mother-in-law. Just this one will crush the other two wives No wonder the mistress only brought the eldest wife to the capital!
In a blink of an eye, it took two days. In two days, Zhou Shuren recovered from his cold with his strong body, but Wu Ming got worse. Fortunately, the test is over, and Wu Ming has time to take care of himself. It will be a month before the test is released Woolen cloth!
As for the palace examination, the time of the palace examination is not stable, but it is all in April, whether it is early April or mid-April depends on the emperor's will.
Zhou Shuren recovered his body and bones, and originally wanted to see Zhao Bo, but just after the post was sent, he got the news that Zhao Bo was also sick.
This time, there will be a heavy snowfall, which will really hurt the people who refer to it. Come on, Zhou Shuren is not going anywhere, and can only stay at home.
After waiting for another three days, Wu Ming's condition has improved a lot, and he can take two more medicines, and he will be fine in the future.
Wu Chun's second letter also arrived, this time only letters.
Yang Zhumu's eyes turned red after reading it, Zhulan sat aside and watched anxiously, Yang Zhumu rubbed his corners before handing the letter to the girl,
"Look."
Zhulan took the letter, but she didn't say anything in the letter. It mainly talked about the family property she bought in Lizhou City, and then she said hello. The most talked about was Wuhe. Wuhe was a military officer who was in good health and promoted to the eighth rank. It's just that he no longer lives in Lizhou and is stationed in a county.
Yang Zhumu lamented that his son's hardship was not easy, and all the reward money was spent, "When parents come, we should start our journey. Counting the days, I should also prepare for it."
"It is indeed necessary to prepare. According to what Wu Chun said, there is a shortage of everything in Lizhou City. Brother, you should buy more seeds. Don't worry about rice. Buy more wheat and corn seeds. By the way, there are also sweet potatoes and potatoes. Buy some!"
Lizhou City is short of food, sweet potatoes and potatoes are good things.
Yang Zhumu's heart is not as careful as his younger sister, "You help me think about it, I'm afraid I may miss something."
Zhulan said: "Okay."
The list written by Zhulan and Zhou Shuren was handed over to Yang Zhumu to buy after it was completed.
In Zhulan's memory, the original body doesn't know how much money the Yang family has. According to Zhulan's luggage brought by her eldest brother, the Yang family's family background is not small.
As a daughter, Zhulan also bought clothes for her parents.
Zhulan bought the clothes for her parents, and Li Shi was in a bad mood, "What's the matter today? Boss is mad at you?"
Mrs. Li shook her head, "Mother, the Xu family next door is moving out."
Zhulan really didn't know. In February, she was busy with Zhou Shuren first, and then helped her eldest brother buy things. The wife of the Xu family next door never visited the door again, "Isn't their business in the capital doing well? Why did they move away? "
Mrs. Li glanced around, and said in a low voice: "Mother, Qi's father-in-law got the news, saying that some port is going to be expanded, their family will move there to occupy a place in advance, or open sea trading in the future, mother, what is sea trading?" ? Isn’t the sea full of water?”
Zhulan's heart flew up, ouch, this is really big news, she quickly squeezed Li Shi, "You can tidy up the rest of the fabric!"
Mrs. Li touched her cheek, why is her mother-in-law so happy?
Zhulan went back to the house to find Zhou Shuren, Zhou Shuren was reading a book, Zhulan said excitedly: "Pinggang will probably be expanded."
Zhou Shuren put down the book, "This is big news, where did you get the news?"
"The Xu family next door is going to move out. The Xu family's daughter-in-law didn't get along well with Mrs. Li. She told Mrs. Li secretly, and even said that she was going to be tested for maritime transactions."
Zhou Shuren thought to himself that the imperial court was really short of money, and that the Northwest and other places were all waiting for money and food to save their lives, "This is a good thing!"
Zhulan was thinking quickly, "Of course it's a good thing. Not only will the housing prices in Pinggang rise, but the land will also rise. We have 80 mu of land!"
After this investment, she is going to buy Zhuangzi, two or three Zhuangzi, and she will have a stable income every year in the future, and continue to invest the rest of the money. As for the upper bunk, Zhulan has not thought about buying it at present, so it is better to use the money in her hand. Silver continued to invest quickly, especially during the period when the imperial court continued to relax policies on merchants. In this period, as long as the timing is right, you can make a lot of money.
Zhou Shuren stroked his beard, "Let Er Yue take Li Chun to Pinggang to find out the news."
"Yes, let them pay attention to the housing prices and land prices in Pinggang."
Zhulan didn't think about reinvesting. The well-informed merchants have backgrounds behind them. Their roots in the capital are nothing, so it's fine to get in early. Now go to grab the pure first.
Zhou Shuren sent Er Yue and Li Chun to go out on errands, and there were two young servants missing at home, so many things were not going well, even Boss Zhou was used to ordering Er Yue.
Zhou Shuren was also not used to it, and sighed with Zhulan, "It's easy to be extravagant. I feel uncomfortable when I suddenly have no one to command. After the list is released, let's buy another family."
Zhulan also felt that there were fewer people, and she was going to buy Zhuangzi. Zhuangzi needs people who are in charge, and everywhere needs people. Zhulan sighed, "Our family needs a housekeeper, and a good housekeeper is hard to find!"
She observed Ma Eryue carefully, her mind was not flexible enough, and her ability was limited, so she could be Zhuangzi's steward.
Zhou Shuren also didn't want Zhulan to worry about everything, but a good housekeeper is hard to find, "Let's touch it slowly if we don't rush!"
"Yep."
Three days later, Er Yue came back with Li Chun. Although he did not get accurate information, judging from the housing prices and the gathering of merchants, the news from the Xu family was accurate.
Zhulan was relieved, she just had to wait.
In the blink of an eye, it came to the end of March, and when it was time to release the rankings, Zhulan and Zhou Shuren went to watch in a carriage before dawn.
There were a lot of people with the same thought, Zhulan's carriage came late, there were quite a few carriages ahead, and there were many guards surrounding the carriage, so there was no need to go forward, and we could only wait on the sidelines.
Zhulan held Zhou Shuren's hand tightly, "Do you think I should look forward to it?"
