Chapter 183 He is just superficial!
Just after dinner, someone knocked on the door again.
Sanbao thought that the little beggar was playing a prank and cursed at him twice, but it turned out not to be the case.
The dentist is here.
The shopkeeper sent him to inform Cai and her family, and helped them find suitable fields and hills. This time, he found twenty acres of good land and two hills, and calculated the price. He asked Cai and her family if they wanted to go and take a look.
Cai naturally agreed.
After cleaning up the table, I went to check on the fields with my friend.
Dabao was not at home, so Cai took Sanbao and Xiaoyuanbao to see it.
With Xiao Yuanbao's reputation here, no one dares to bully them mother and daughter.
It went very smoothly. The owner of the pawnshop had been arranged. Cai and her family were satisfied with the deal. The seller was also a straightforward person. After selling their land, the family moved to the provincial capital to provide space for their son to take the imperial examination.
Also in a hurry to sell.
Cai went to the school to look for Dabao. It was Dabao's first day at school and they didn't have many classes, so he asked the gatekeeper to let them out to meet Cai.
Dabao learned about the situation and agreed.
If you happen to have money in your hand, you can spend it and turn it into an industry that generates returns, even better. Otherwise, it will be wasted as it cannot make money.
Dabao didn’t go for the property transfer.
Let Xiao Yuanbao go directly to the yamen to sign. Now Xiao Yuanbao's name is here. The people in the yamen have dealt with Xiao Yuanbao several times and they all know her.
Buy her bill!
Who would dare not sell out to such a powerful little kid?
It was another fruitful day. We worked on twenty acres of land and two hilltops, spending a total of more than four hundred taels of silver.
I was busy until the evening before I went home.
As a result, the little beggar didn't leave yet, and actually slept at the gate with the little white-haired boy.
He slept with his mouth drooling and his arms and legs spread out, totally disregarding his image.
The little white-haired boy also likes to lie on his belly, so he has found a similar one.
Cai was stunned.
"Liao Huaiyu, Liao Huaiyu? Come in and sleep." There wasn't much in Xiao Yuanbao's house except for a lot of rooms.
There are plenty of guest rooms.
There is a second courtyard, which is still empty.
The little beggar woke up, wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth with his hand, and said sleepily, "Ah! Auntie? No need! I can't sleep in the house. I will feel uncomfortable if I go in. I sleep comfortably outside. I sleep in the doghouse with my good brother Little White Hair. It's fine."
Cai...
Little Yuanbao chuckled, "Mother, he was born to be a beggar. He can't sleep in the house. Otherwise, he will get sick and weak..."
After hearing this, Sanbao breathed a sigh of relief.
Isn't that better? I can't follow them. Seeing them is annoying.
Sanbao said, "This guy was born to beg, which is pretty good."
"Well, Little White Hair, let's go inside and let him guard the door alone. He can guard it as long as he wants..."
I said this to irritate the little beggar.
Unexpectedly, the other person did not take his ridicule seriously at all. He yawned and said to the little white-haired boy, "I can guard the door by myself. Brother, you go into the house and sleep in a warm place."
Three Treasures...
He is too superficial!
He underestimated the extent of this man's shamelessness.
Seeing that the little beggar insisted on sleeping outside, Cai went into the house, took out a blanket and covered him with it.
Afraid he would freeze.
And he brought out some food for him.
In the middle of the night, I went out to check on him several times. Only when I saw that he was sleeping soundly did I feel relieved.
This child is really not an ordinary person.

The next morning, Uncle Li Zheng brought his tenants to talk to Cai about farming.
Unexpectedly, Cai bought another twenty acres.
They were surprised for a moment, but it did not faze them. The tenant they brought was from the same village. His name was Tang Xiangui. He had a large family, including five sons, seven grandsons, wives, maids, etc., a total of more than 30 people.
But I didn't even have two acres of land, and with so many mouths to feed in my family, it was simply impossible to feed myself.
Tang Xiangui was an old farmer. His family used to have a lot of land. Later, he wanted to raise scholars in his family, so he sent his two sons to school, but he was unable to do so. However, most of his land was sold.
Now, under the introduction of Uncle Li Zheng, I am willing to rent the land from Xiao Yuanbao's family.
Upon hearing that there were 20 more acres, Tang Xiangui took it immediately, "Twenty acres can be planted, forty acres can be planted, and our grandchildren can all work in the fields. We definitely don't lack manpower, and they are very strong..."
The more you plant, the more food you will get when the time comes, and the whole family will be able to eat their fill.
Uncle Li Zheng had no objection, and Cai was exactly what he wanted. It would save him a lot of trouble if he handed it over to one family to grow.
While the adults were talking, Xiao Yuanbao and Sanbao also had their own plans.
"Mom, let's take Little White Hair to play on the new hilltop we bought!"
"Okay, don't be gone for too long, and remember to come back for lunch at noon."
Speaking of hilltops, Cai would also like to ask what is good to plant on the hilltops. In the past, the owners of the hills planted fruit trees.
Now the mountain is full of peach trees.
I went for a quick look yesterday. I didn't walk all the way up the mountain, but the whole mountain was covered with peach blossoms, like a sea of flowers.
Uncle Li Zheng asked Cai, "Did you buy two more mountains? Where are they located?"
"I bought it together with the land. The two peach blossom mountains in the ditch next door..." Cai replied.
Uncle Li Zheng and Tang Xiangui were both envious. "We have been to those two peach blossom mountains. They produce a lot of peaches every year. The peaches taste good and can make a lot of money. So we should plant peaches. The trees are ready and have been there for many years."
"Well, peach trees are prone to insects. How should we take care of them? We still need to hire someone to take care of them. My energy is all on these kids every day..."
Tang Xiangui said hurriedly, "What a coincidence! My wife's family used to work in Taoshan. They can fertilize, expel insects, and prune. If you need anything, I will send them a message when I get home and ask them to come to your house to talk..."
"That's fine."
After saying this, Tang Xiangui went back first.
I started working on the spring ploughing and also notified my father-in-law's family to see if they could take over the custody of Taoshan.
Only Uncle Li Zheng remained.
Uncle Li Zheng said, "If you want to hire someone to look after the peach mountain, you don't need too many people. Just hire one experienced worker for each mountain. The hiring fee will also depend on the production volume. When the peach picking season comes, I'll have people from our village help you pick peaches for a few days."
"Yes, thank you, uncle."
Then, Uncle Li Zheng didn't leave yet, and he said, "Ms. Cai, these few days, several local gentry have come to me and said they want to pay tribute to your little Yuanbao every year. They said that the little Yuanbao is the reincarnation of a bodhisattva and is a blessing to the villagers in our area. They want to offer sacrifices to the little Yuanbao every year. Do you need it?"
Cai was a little confused, "Offering?"
"Your wife has never heard of it, so it's understandable. To put it simply, they are willing to give Xiao Yuanbao a certain amount of money every year, and then tell people that Xiao Yuanbao has a bond with their family. When Xiao Yuanbao is free, he can go to their house and help them look after their house, just to make them feel at ease. They are just using Xiao Yuanbao's fame to make things easier. What do you think?"
