Although the village wasn't prosperous yet, Mu Hanyan could see that the market had great potential. More importantly, the Heart Cleansing Sword Soul Pond was hidden behind the village, and her Frost Sky Sword was also inside. Leaving Qu Shanling alone to guard it would be too lonely, and would also be too inconvenient for her daily life. Leaving the Fang family behind would at least provide someone to look after her.
As for the Rong family, she didn't care. If Rong dared to cause trouble again, she would crush them to death! Buying this place was just a way to help the Fang family.
"Mr. Mu, are you serious?" Fang Xuemao asked in surprise.
If he could get close to the Mu family, he wouldn't have to worry about the Rong family causing trouble for them again. He couldn't even dream of such a good thing.
"Why would I lie to you?" Mu Hanyan smiled and said, "Let's sign the land deed first, and then I'll send someone to inform the Nanyan Chamber of Commerce."
"Okay, okay." Fang Xuemao accidentally got on the good side of the Mu family, and naturally he was overjoyed. He quickly took out a stack of land deeds that he kept close to him, picked out one and handed it to Mu Hanyan. He looked at the others, shook his head and sighed, and threw it aside.
"How much?" Mu Hanyan took a look and asked, seeing that it was the title deed to this village.
"It's just a small village that has been abandoned for a long time. If you want it, Master Mu, I'll give it to you. As long as you are willing to let us stay and have a place to live, that will be fine." Fang Xuemao waved his hand and said.
What the Fang family really needs now is a place to stand. As long as the Mu family is willing to take over the village, continue to operate the inn and restaurant in the market, and allow them to settle down here, the Rong family will not dare to cause trouble again, so how can he have the nerve to mention money again?
"That won't do. I don't have the habit of taking advantage of others. Just tell me how much silver you need." Mu Hanyan certainly knew what Fang Xuemao was thinking, but she didn't want to let them suffer any loss, so she took out a thick stack of silver bills and said.
Looking at the banknotes in Mu Hanyan's hand, Fang Xuemao felt dizzy.
That should be at least tens of millions of taels of silver notes. Living in an important area in the capital, he has seen many powerful and wealthy families, and he has also seen people with a net worth of tens of millions. But net worth is net worth, and it is rare to see people who can casually take out tens of millions of taels of silver notes.
You have to know that Mu Hanyan is just a descendant of the Mu family in Black Stone City, and the Mu family in Black Stone City is just one of the branches of the Mu family. Fang Xuemao really couldn't imagine how rich the Mu family's main family was financially.
The old man didn't know that Mu Hanyan was Mu Hanyan, and the Mu family was the Mu family. When it came to wealth, even Mu Ruian, the lord of the city, often envied his precious daughter. He thought that even though he was the lord of the city, his entire fortune was not as rich as his daughter's.
"My ancestors bought this village from the royal family for a million taels of silver, but now it's even more destitute than it was then. I'll discount the price by 500,000 taels," Fang Xuemao said after a moment's thought. Seeing Young Master Mu's wealth, he felt that any further politeness would be contemptuous.
"Okay." Mu Hanyan didn't act pretentiously. She took the land deed, took out a silver note of 500,000 taels and handed it to Fang Xuemao, and signed the contract by the way.
"By the way, where are those land deeds from?" Mu Hanyan looked at the land deeds thrown aside by Fang Xuemao and asked curiously.
"They are all from the nearby wilderness and forests. They are not worth much." Fang Xuemao handed it to Mu Hanyan and said.
Mu Hanyan took a look and saw that they were indeed all deeds to wilderness and forests. Ever since the ancient trade route outside the village was closed, the village had become increasingly destitute, and the surrounding wilderness and forests were naturally worthless. No wonder Fang Xuemao shook his head and sighed, tossing the deeds aside like waste paper.
Mu Hanyan was about to return the deed to Fang Xuemao when Xing Huan Qianji's familiar voice suddenly came to her mind: "Buy it, buy it all."
"You're awake!" Mu Hanyan exclaimed in surprise. Xinghuan Qianji had been asleep for a long time since leaving the Valley of Exotic Beasts, and Mu Hanyan was worried that he would continue to sleep like this.
"Buy all these land deeds first, and never let anyone know of my existence." Xinghuan Qianji's voice was more serious and alert than ever before.
After saying this, Xinghuan Qianji fell silent again. Mu Hanyan had a hunch that he was on guard against something.
What on earth was it? Mu Hanyan subconsciously concentrated her mind and paid attention to the movements around her, but she didn't find anything unusual.
Could it be someone around her? Mu Hanyan glanced at everyone around her one by one, especially the children of the Fang family, but still didn't find anything unusual.
"Mr. Mu?" Seeing Mu Hanyan staring at the land deed in his hand without saying a word, Fang Xuemao called out cautiously.
"Master Fang, why don't I just buy all these wilderness and mountains?" Mu Hanyan put Xinghuan Qianji's matter aside for the time being and said to Fang Xuemao.
"Mr. Mu, this is absolutely not allowed. You have taken special care of our Fang family when you bought this village. These wilderness and mountains are not worth much. If you want them, just take them. If you mention money again, you will be looking down on our Fang family." Fang Xuemao said firmly.
"After all, it belongs to your Fang family. No matter how worthless it is, I can't take it for free." Mu Hanyan said with a smile.
Being noticed by Xinghuan Qianji is definitely not as simple as being in the wilderness or the mountains. She doesn't want the Fang family to suffer any loss.
"If Mr. Mu really wants to give something, just give me 12,000 taels of silver. This is the amount of money I spent on buying these wilderness and mountains." Fang Xuemao said with a wry smile.
Although they hadn't been together long, he could see that Mu Hanyan was a stickler for words, so he couldn't refuse any further. So, he decided to sell it to Mu Hanyan at the original price.
"Okay, then it's ten thousand taels." Mu Hanyan searched for a long time before finally finding a silver note of ten thousand taels and handed it to Fang Xuemao.
Even Ye Lanxuan gave a wry smile at the pile of banknotes she had rummaged through. An ordinary family would never be able to save up ten thousand taels of silver in their lifetime. But she, on the other hand, had banknotes worth tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands, so finding a ten thousand tael note was incredibly difficult.
His lover is such a rich man, and he has a subtle feeling that he might be seen as a gigolo in the future.
Afterwards, Mu Hanyan and the others said goodbye to Qu Shanling and headed for the capital. However, before leaving, they specifically spoke to Patriarch Fang about a few things.
Black Stone City is far away from here, and the Nanyan Chamber of Commerce is expanding rapidly. It is impossible to send a large number of people in the short term, so Mu Hanyan still handed over the restaurants and inns in the market to the Fang family.
Anyway, her main purpose in buying this territory was for the Jianxin Soul Cleansing Pool and her Hanxiao Sword. Now, with the hint from Xinghuan Qianji, the market town, restaurants, inns, etc., were secondary.
After a night, the carriage and the two armored horned horses pulling it were still in their original places and no one had stolen them.
