Chapter 132 My name is Ling Yun, and I want to find out the secrets of the monks in this world from him
So Kang Ruolan directly ordered a group of people to go out and buy items separately.
Xiao Ying gave Chen Xingyue one hundred taels of silver and asked her to go with him.
One is to supervise her, and the other is to train her.
Kang Ruolan also went there in person, and made sure to do the first thing the master asked her to do.
Xiao Ying also went out, taking He Changgui and Yuan Xiangyu with him, and prepared to buy another big carriage.
Nowadays, Chen Xingyun and Chen Xinghe still ride in an ox cart to go to town. Since the family has the means, there is no need to put the children in a difficult position.
From now on, one carriage will be used by the brother and sister, and the other will be kept on standby so that anyone can use it when going out.
The rest of the people went back to the pawnshop to pack their belongings. Except for more than ten servants and the tenant Zhao Daqing's family of five, she asked the rest to go to Hongye Town by themselves tomorrow. She would wait at the town entrance tomorrow morning and take them directly into the mountains.
They will also have to bring their own farm tools and daily necessities, but they don't need to bring food, as she will provide it tomorrow.
The reason for this arrangement was that there were too many people buying servants, and they were afraid that bringing them to the village would cause unnecessary trouble. Buying so many servants was already eye-catching enough.
This time, Xiao Ying bought a gorgeous carriage. The carriage alone cost him more than eighty taels. It could seat eight or nine people, and there was even a low table in the middle.
If there are few people on board, you can even lie down on it.
Such a large carriage naturally could not be pulled by one horse, so two horses were equipped, which cost hundreds of taels of silver.
He Changgui and his wife were secretly blaming themselves. Such an expensive carriage was bought so easily, which showed that their new master was not short of money.
On the way back, He Changgui drove the carriage. Yuan Xiangyu didn't dare to sit in it with Xiao Ying, so she sat next to her man. This was her first time riding in a carriage, and she felt curious and nervous.
It was already noon when they returned to the pawnshop. She gave some money and let everyone go have lunch.
Everyone just went out to buy steamed buns and didn't dare to spend money recklessly.
Kang Ruolan, Chen Xingyue and others took a long time to buy flowers. Because there were too many farmers buying from them, they went to two or three iron shops to buy enough.
Each family was equipped with two hoes, two sickles, a shovel, as well as pots, pans, bedding and other items.
Four oxen were also bought, with each family sharing one, and four curved plows were also bought.
Besides these, everyone had a set of clothes, including shoes. Many people hadn't worn new clothes in years and were almost in tears when they received the clothes.
In this way, the one hundred taels of silver were almost spent, mainly because cattle and ironware were relatively expensive, and he was not too greedy for other things.
After distributing the farm tools and daily necessities, and instructing them to gather at the entrance of Hongye Town at 3:15 pm the next morning, Xiao Ying left with Chen Xingyue and a group of servants.
He Changgui and Shi Li were driving the carriages. The large carriage bought today was for the women, while the previous one was for the men.
Yuan Xianglan and the others felt very uncomfortable being huddled together with their master, and they all hung their heads and remained silent.
Chen Xingyue was very lively and kept talking to the sisters He Chunyu and He Dongxue, so the carriage was not dull.
Xiao Ying was looking through the household registration information. She had the indentures of more than 60 people in her hands. Only then did she know that the mysterious man at the second level of Qi Refining was called Ling Yun.
Ling Yun was originally an illegal resident, but the arbitrator was very powerful and was able to register him in such a short time. He will be hers from now on.
Among these people, she was most interested in Ling Yun. The biggest reason she bought him was to find out the secrets of the cultivators in this world from him.
This person's disfigurement and amnesia were caused by poisoning. She took a quick look and found that the poison was very strong, but not incurable.
Apart from anything else, soaking in spiritual spring water every day can slowly eliminate it.
If she can recover her memory by then, she will know what she wants.
Even if he really cannot recover, at least he is a potential cultivator, so it is not a loss in any way.
Another good one is He Changgui. She can now easily cure his leg disease. This man has the iron-blooded aura of someone who has experienced the battlefield. If it weren't for his leg disease, it would be a waste of his talent for him to be a servant or a guard.
Of course, Kang Ruolan and others are also very good, including Li Jincheng and Yue Ming who are good at breeding. They are all talents with professional skills.
It was already 3 p.m. when they returned to Chenjia Village. The villagers were very surprised to see the large carriage pulled by two horses, and the drivers were strangers.
It was not until the carriage stopped in front of Xiao Ying's house that everyone realized that Madam Xiao had bought another carriage.
Seeing more than ten people getting off the carriage one after another, everyone was surprised and envious.
I had heard that Madam Xiao wanted to buy servants, but I didn't expect that she would buy so many at once. Even in this town, there are probably only a few people who can afford so many servants.
"Xingyue, take them into the house first." Xiao Ying got out of the car and gave an order.
"Mom, I know what to do."
Chen Xingyue smiled and let Kang Ruolan and others into the house first, and then took He Changgui and Shi Li to the backyard to park the carriage.
Kang Ruolan and others were a little surprised. They thought that this lady was from a wealthy family in the county town, but they didn't expect that she actually lived in the village.
But this house looks nice. Not only is it spacious, but it is also beautifully decorated.
Seeing that the family was simple, everyone was more satisfied, as it meant less trouble.
Xiao Ying took Zhao Daqing's family to the old house. Zhao Daqing's family was one of the tenant households. There were five people in the family, including parents, two sons and one daughter.
The two sons are already 19 and 17 years old, and the daughter is 14 years old.
However, due to family circumstances, neither son was able to marry.
I believe it is more than enough for this family to take care of the dozen acres of land.
"You will live here from now on. You can use whatever you want inside. I will send you some food tomorrow."
"But be careful when using the kitchen. Someone comes here every morning to make lunch for the craftsmen."
"You can eat together, but each person has to pay two cents. If you don't eat together, you can only wait until they have prepared lunch."
Although these people were bought by her, they were an independent household and of course they could not eat for free.
Zhao Daqing immediately promised to abide by the rules and wait until the others had finished preparing lunch before they did it.
Moreover, when they were at home, they only ate two meals a day and had no problem eating a little later.
He couldn't bear to let them spend ten cents on food every day.
"Well, put your things down first. I'll take you to see the location of the fourteen acres of land later."
The whole family was very excited. They could finally grow crops again, a full fourteen acres.
And the house looked pretty good, with four or five bedrooms alone, much better than their previous home.
Xiao Ying gave the key to Zhao Daqing. After Zhao Daqing put his things away, he locked the door with the key. The family of five followed Xiao Ying.
The fourteen acres of land are distributed in three places, and only two acres are top-quality land. The seedlings planted there are already lush and growing very well.
There are also two acres of inferior land, all planted with potatoes, which are growing well.
The last ten acres are newly opened wasteland. There are five acres of potatoes and five acres of peppers on these wastelands. Since they have only been planted for more than ten days, they are still seedlings.
Newly reclaimed wasteland does not have to pay taxes in the first three years, which is extremely beneficial to Xiao Ying.
As for the rest of the land, the tax rate is one thirty percent, which is not high.
This also reflects that those in power are relatively wise and do not over-exploit the people.
"I have two ways of distributing income. Please listen to me and decide which one you would like to choose."
These people were different from tenants, so Xiao Ying did not treat them directly as tenants.
