Chapter 404 Getting More Powerful

Shopkeeper Yao quickly took out a hundred taels of silver and gave it to Shopkeeper Zhou, "Shopkeeper Zhou, this is a deposit of one hundred taels of silver.

How about tomorrow morning, we can pay the money and handle the paperwork?"

Shopkeeper Zhou smiled and nodded, "It's settled now. Let's finish the formalities. I'll have Liu Da call the tenants over and meet with you.

This is a neat deal.”

"good!"

After seeing off Shopkeeper Zhou, Zhang Juexia told Shopkeeper Yao, "I have to go back to the village and ask my eldest brother and his wife if they want to buy some land."

"Go ahead! I really envy your relationship. You're not blood brothers, but you're better than brothers. Whenever there's something good going on, you always think of each other."

Zhang Juexia bought some food in the town, then turned the carriage around and prepared to return to the village.

The journey back to the village was very smooth.

Zhang Juexia did not return to his own home, but asked Lin Yuan to park the carriage at Wang Guilan's house.

She and Lin Yuan took the things off the carriage. Wang Guilan also came out of the house when she heard the noise.

"My goodness, I'm going back to my own home, why are you buying so many things?"

Zhang Juexia smiled and looked back at Wang Guilan, "Grandma, this is a new pastry from the pastry shop in town. I tried it and it's delicious, so I bought some more.

If you and I don’t feel like cooking on weekdays, just bring it here to eat.

These four bags are for my eldest uncle and my third uncle's family. Grandma, please help me distribute them to them later."

“Look at you, you always buy things every time you come here, this isn’t like you’re going to someone else’s house, this is like you’re going back to your own home.

Even if you have a lot of money, you have to spend it frugally.

Bei Xiu wants to take part in the provincial examination again. I heard that the military examination is even more expensive than the civil examination!

Zhang Juexia helped Wang Guilan into the house and said with a smile, "I didn't expect that grandma knew so much."

After entering the yard, Zhang Juexia didn't see Ye Jishun, so she asked, "Grandma, where is my grandfather?"

"Wanfeng is building a house, so he's going over there to join in the fun!"

"So which place did he choose?"

"Didn't Wanfeng tell you?"

"I think I did. There were so many things going on that I can't remember clearly."

“He discussed with your Grandpa Jidong and the others and chose the vacant land next to your house.

It’s not far from your house, and it’s also close for them to go up the mountain to raise chickens.

Juexia, let me tell you, your grandfather Jidong has chosen this son-in-law and is extremely satisfied with the decision made by Wanfeng."

"Grandma, how could someone who can be so close to Ye Beixiu be wrong?"

Wang Guilan was extremely satisfied after hearing what Zhang Juexia said, and her smile became even wider.

After she had laughed enough, she remembered to ask Zhang Juexia, "Didn't Bei Xiu come with you?"

"Grandma, no! He's busy and can't leave."

"So what's wrong with you?"

"It's something."

Zhang Juexia then talked to Wang Guilan about buying land.

Wang Guilan pondered for a moment and said, "Nine taels of silver per mu of land is indeed appropriate. I'll go with you and ask your uncle and his family."

Wang Guilan had the same impatient personality as Zhang Juexia. She picked up the four boxes of snacks that Zhang Juexia had put down and went to Ye Yunsheng's house with Zhang Juexia.

Before leaving, she reminded Lin Yuan, "Lin Yuan, sit down and drink some water first. If you are hungry, have some snacks.

I'll come back in a while and cook for you!"

Lin Yuan didn't dare to be arrogant, and quickly stood up and responded.

Only after Wang Guilan and Zhang Juexia disappeared did he dare to sit down.

Li Yiqin was also surprised to see Zhang Juexia coming back at this time. "Juexia, what happened? Why are you back at this time?"

Without waiting for Zhang Juexia to answer, Wang Guilan said to Li Yiqin, "Let your mother look after the child, and go to the back mountain to call your father and your third uncle, and tell them that I have something to say.

Don't call your third aunt, just let her do her job.

Anyway, this matter has nothing to do with her."

Although Li Yiqun had some doubts in her heart, she still agreed to go out.

After a while, Ye Yunsheng and Ye Yunliang came down from the mountain.

Wang Guilan pointed at the four boxes of snacks and said, "Juexia brought them back from town. Two boxes for each of your two families."

"Mom, you asked us to go down the mountain, isn't it just for this?"

Wang Guilan pulled a face and said, "Why, this is impossible! Which of you went to the city without thinking of bringing back some snacks for everyone? Jue Xia never came back empty-handed.

I tell you, this is the etiquette that people should have.

Third brother, don't think this is what you deserve. At least you should say thank you!"

Wang Guilan scolded him for a while, and although Ye Yunliang was reluctant, he couldn't bear it anymore, so he bit the bullet and apologized to Zhang Juexia, "Bei Xiu's wife, your uncle's words were not pleasant to hear, please don't take them to heart.

You always think of us when you have something delicious to eat. I, your Third Uncle, am grateful for your kindness. Thank you!"

Zhang Juexia quickly waved his hands, "Third Uncle, we're all family, no need to thank each other."

Wang Guilan shouted into the house, "Eldest brother's wife, come out with the child and listen too."

After Zhao Baofeng came out with the child, Wang Guilan told them about the land purchase that Zhang Juexia had conveyed.

"As for Juexia, I'm thinking of you when there's anything good going on. As for this land, whether you buy it or not is up to you to decide.

Juexia and I are just conveying things to you, we can’t make decisions for you.”

Li Yiqin had already figured it out in her mind that no matter what happened, as long as she followed Zhang Juexia, she would be sure to get it right.

She glanced at Ye Yunsheng and Zhao Baofeng and said, "Dad, Mom, I think we should buy this land."

Ye Yunsheng and Zhao Baofeng looked at each other and said, "Then buy it."

Ye Yunliang shook his head and said, "I don't have money, so I won't buy it. Mother, can you please not call me when you need to spend money like this in the future?"

Even if they called me, I couldn’t afford it, and I would have wasted my working time.”

Wang Guilan glared at him and said, “Just because you can’t afford it now doesn’t mean you can’t afford it in the future.

You will have to listen and see more about this kind of life in the future.

It's also because our lives were too monotonous in the past. All we did was hunting. You had no chance to learn to do these things.

To be honest, we had money in the past, but no one thought about buying land.

At that time, we just thought that even if we bought the land, we wouldn’t be able to farm it ourselves.

If you let others plant it, you will lose out.

Now think about it, our thinking is wrong.

The silver didn't seem to increase in my hand.

It would be better to exchange it for land. At least you don’t have to spend money to buy food for your family.

Besides, I have a few acres of land, so I can live a stable life."

Zhang Juexia really didn't expect Wang Guilan to say this, "Grandma, how come I feel like you've become even more powerful after just a few days of not seeing you?"

Ye Yunsheng patted Ye Yunliang on the shoulder and said, "Mom is right. Just because you can't afford it now doesn't mean you can't afford it in the future.

If you work hard, you will definitely be able to afford it one day."
