Chapter 178 It’s You
"Oh my God, little sister, you really bought this farm!" Yuan Zining opened his eyes wide and looked around, his face full of envy: "It makes me want to open a shop again. This shop makes money too quickly, 70,000 taels, little sister, you didn't even blink an eye!"
After the previous owner of the manor left, several people began to tour the manor. They had already toured most of the manor, but Yuan Zining still couldn't quite believe it.
Yuan Zian asked coldly, "Have you decided what kind of shop you want to open?"
Speaking of this, Yuan Zining was a little discouraged: "No!"
"You haven't thought of anything yet. Could it be that the money will grow legs and run into your pocket in bunches?" Yuan Zian asked with a raised eyebrow.
"Ah!" Yuan Zining said with a look of regret: "Why don't I have my younger sister's business acumen?"
Yuan Ziyu couldn't help but smile: "Brother, second brother, I'm also thinking about the matter of the shop. Don't worry, I will help you think of a solution later!"
"Really?" Yuan Zining's eyes lit up when he heard that!
"nature!"
"Little sister, just help me think of something. We will find a way to get the money to open the shop!" Yuan Zian said. In fact, after seeing Yuan Ziyu's shop, he also had the idea of opening a shop, but after all, he and Yuan Zining were now in the Jingxi camp and had no time to think about it, so he delayed it. Now hearing Yuan Ziyu say this, he would naturally not refuse!
"Okay!" Yuan Ziyu smiled. In fact, she had already thought about it. After the farm produced grain, she would let her eldest and second brothers open a grain shop. This way, not only would they have a source of goods and wouldn't have to worry too much, but when there was a flood next year or when the border needed grain, they could do those things in the name of the grain shop, which would also be good for the future of her eldest and second brothers.
"You'er, do you have any candidates for the head of this manor?" Huo Xifei asked.
Yuan Ziyou shook his head: "I haven't made up my mind yet. If that doesn't work out, I'll transfer one from my mother's farm first!"
Although the previous owner transferred the indentures of the people in the manor to Yuan Ziyu, the head of the manor was taken away. After all, he was a familiar person, so there is no head of the manor now.
"I have a few people here. If you don't have any suitable ones, I will send you their indentures later!" Huo Xifei smiled softly.
Yuan Ziyou blinked his eyes: "Then doesn't that mean you don't have enough manpower?"
“I have plenty of manpower!”
"Well... okay!" Yuan Ziyu agreed with a smile. Sooner or later, the two families would become one anyway, so she wouldn't refuse!
Huo Xifei turned around and gave Huo San a few instructions, and Huo San left.
The group toured the village roughly and had a basic understanding of it. Yuan Ziyu planned to plant various crops on all the fertile fields in the village, and leave the two hills to plant fruit trees in the future.
At Yuan Zian's suggestion, Yuan Ziyu set aside another fifty acres of land in the farm to grow pasture grass.
After making the plan and having some snacks, Huo San rushed back with a few people, bringing with him the indentures of these people.
Yuan Ziyu did not act pretentiously. He appointed someone to be the head of the village and told the new head, whose surname was Fan, about his idea.
Fan Zhuangtou knew that the prince was appointing him to Yuan Ziyu, and he also understood Yuan Ziyu's identity, so he was extremely respectful to her.
After arranging this farm, Huo Xifei took a few people to another farm while it was still early.
This manor is not as big as the first one, but it is more exquisite. The best thing is that it has a hot spring, so it can be said to be a veritable hot spring manor.
In the end, Yuan Ziyu bought the hot spring villa for 50,000 taels of silver.
Huo Wan was so happy that she jumped up and down, saying that she would come here to avoid the cold when the weather got cooler.
Yuan Ziyu naturally agreed.
"Hehehe!" Yuan Zining approached Yuan Ziyu with a smile: "Little sister, your farm is so beautiful, please leave two rooms for me and big brother!"
"Of course!" Yuan Ziyou said with a smile, "Not only you, but also Dad, Mom, Grandma, Brother Xi, Wan'er, Aunt Meng, and the others can all come!"
"That's great!" Huo Wan's eyes sparkled as she took Yuan Ziyu's arm and said, "Sister You, it's settled then!"
"nature!"
Because this manor was a hot spring manor and was most suitable for growing flowers, Yuan Ziyu decided to set up the flower garden in this manor. He also selected a manor head named Chen from among the people sent by Huo Xifei and assigned all matters to him.
In the next two days, the few of them visited two more farms, and Yuan Ziyu also bought them. One had 1,500 acres of fertile land, and the other had 1,000 acres of fertile land. In total, Yuan Ziyu spent another 50,000 taels of silver.
In this way, the four farms had a total of more than 7,000 acres of fertile land, and Yuan Ziyu had become a real landlord!
To celebrate the purchase of the farm, Yuan Ziyu offered to treat everyone to a meal at the restaurant, and naturally everyone had no objection.
"Let's go to Zhenweilou!" Yuan Zining suggested.
"Why don't you go to Zuixian Pavilion?" Huo Wan asked in confusion, "The food at Zuixian Pavilion is better than that at Zhenweilou!"
"Hmph!" Yuan Zining snorted. "Even if the food at Zuixian Pavilion is delicious, I won't go there. They're all just idiots looking down on others!"
"The guys at Zuixian Pavilion are really not that good." Yuan Zian also agreed with this point.
"Ah!" Huo Wan blinked: "Really?"
"Yes!" Yuan Zining said hurriedly, "Anyway, I definitely won't go to Zuixian Pavilion!"
"Then let's go to Zhenweilou!" Yuan Ziyu smiled. She had eaten at Zhenweilou before and the food tasted pretty good, and the ingredients were very fresh. Although it was not as good as Zuixian Pavilion, it was not that bad either.
"Well, okay!" Seeing Yuan Ziyu said so, Huo Wan nodded in response.
As for Huo Xifei, he completely centered his attention on Yuan Ziyu and would naturally not refute Yuan Ziyu's opinions.
"When we get to Zhenweilou later, we'll give you two private rooms. You can go and eat there. You don't have to wait on us!" Yuan Ziyu said to Qingying and the others with a smile.
After saying that, he turned to Huo Xifei and the others and said, "You don't have any objections, do you?"
"No!" Several people agreed with Yuan Ziyu's proposal.
Qingying and Qingzhi were already used to it, and the others were also very happy to see that their young masters and young ladies had also agreed.
Soon, they arrived at Zhenweilou, and a waiter came over to greet them enthusiastically, "Ladies and gentlemen, are you ready for dinner? There are private rooms upstairs!"
"Open three private rooms!" Yuan Ziyu ordered.
"Oh, sure!" The waiter smiled. Ever since the food at Zuixian Pavilion became much better, his business has been taken away a lot and there are fewer people here. Today, this customer wants to open three private rooms at once, which makes him very happy!
When several people were about to go upstairs with the guy, a man suddenly rushed down from upstairs and pounced straight on Yuan Zining.
Yuan Zining had been practicing martial arts since childhood, so his footwork was very steady. He grabbed the man and was about to tell him to be careful, but when he saw the man's face, he couldn't help but exclaimed, "It's you?"
