Chapter 276 Buying Land
"Eastern star grouper is five taels of silver per piece, red melon seed grouper is five taels of silver per piece, large flower shrimp is twenty-five wen per piece, yellow croaker is three hundred wen per piece, and sand flathead is three hundred wen per piece."
"Squid is fifty coins per catty, horse-faced crab is three hundred coins each, rice fish is two taels of silver each, hairtail is one tael and a half each, and blue grouper is the largest, so I'll charge six taels of silver each."
Sun Xiaohe had no objection when he heard this and asked people to start weighing and counting.
Song Chuman also left the smallest blue grouper and some seafood for them to eat.
Soon, Sun Xiaohe looked at the abacus and said seriously, "The total is one hundred and seventeen taels."
Song Chuman nodded: "Yes."
The Song family was very happy. They earned more than one hundred taels today.
If I continue to earn at this rate, I will definitely be able to earn enough money to build a house soon.
That's right, they all felt that with the current money in the family, it would definitely not be enough to build a six-story courtyard and meet Song Chuman's requirements.
After receiving the money from Sun Xiaohe, Song Chuman went back to the cave and pretended to put the money into the cave, but actually put it into the space.
Sun Xiaohe also left quickly.
Song Chuman said a few words to her family, packed two kilograms of squid, and went to Ji Lizheng's house with her father and brother.
Ji Jingnan was reading in the yard. Seeing the Song family coming to the door, he stood up and asked, "What's going on?"
Song Hezheng said angrily, "Ji Lizheng, I'm sorry to bother you today. My family has decided to build a house and we want to buy some land."
According to the rules of Xuanling Kingdom, if you want to buy land, you must go through the village headman, and the headman will lead people to buy it, and only then will the government sell the land.
Song Chuman handed the basket of squid to Ji Sheng, "This is fresh seafood we caught today. Let's give it to Brother Lizheng to have a taste of."
When Ji Sheng heard the word "fresh", he looked at his master hopefully.
They have been here for several days, but they haven't eaten much fresh seafood.
Ji Jingnan: "If they are willing, just accept it."
Ji Sheng was delighted and quickly took out all the seafood from the basket and put them in his own water tank to keep them temporarily.
He returned to the front yard and returned the basket to Song Chuman.
Ji Jingnan asked, "How much land do you plan to buy? Where do you want to buy it?"
Song Hexiu: "We won't buy too far away, just near the cave. We plan to buy ten acres of land."
Ji Jingnan was stunned: "Ten acres? How big a house do you want to build?"
Song Chuman said childishly, "Brother Lizheng, we want to build a six-yard house. I like houses with many yards, and everyone in my family follows my lead."
She was the one who spoke up so as not to give Ji Jingnan the impression that her family was greedy.
Ji Jingnan stared at Song Chuman and said quietly, "It's not easy to clean up the six-story courtyard."
Song Chuman said softly, "It's okay. We can hire someone to help clean it up, and this way we can provide a place for the villagers to work."
Ji Jingnan nodded in agreement.
That's true.
He didn't waste any more time and asked Ji Sheng to go to the stable to pull the carriage over, and then went to the city with them.
On the way, Ji Jingnan suddenly asked, "Miss Aman, you went out to sea today, didn't you? How was your catch? Besides squid, you should have caught a lot more, right?"
Song Chuman looked at his inquiring eyes and said perfunctorily, "It's okay."
Ji Jingnan saw her defensiveness and stopped asking questions.
He is a little smart boy. Although he is young, he is full of tricks.
