Luo Yunhe waited patiently at the village chief's house.
Seeing the village chief return with a sullen face, he understood that the matter had probably not gone very well.
"Girl, this is a bit difficult. The other party is asking for an exorbitant price. They want 15 taels of silver per mu of land."
"The best land costs only ten taels of silver per mu, yet they're asking for fifteen taels! Isn't that making things difficult for us?"
Luo Yunhe tapped her fingers lightly on the armrest of the chair, her mind racing.
It would be very convenient to set up a large workshop on those 10 acres of land near his home.
They actually wanted 15 taels of silver, which was indeed much more expensive. Moreover, it was simply not worth 15 taels per mu of land.
"Village chief, how about this? Don't they want to discuss it some more?"
You can tell them that I can offer a maximum of eight taels of silver per mu of their land. You can also hire one person from their family to work for two taels of silver per month.
If they're selling, then I'll sell; if they're not, then I'll look elsewhere!
The village chief was a little nervous because he was worried that Luo Yunhe would not buy the land and build their village, but after hearing what he said, he immediately felt relieved.
"Okay, I'll let them know!"
Luo Yunhe thought for a moment and then said, "Village chief, is there any larger piece of land in our village? Like, say, 20 mu?"
It doesn't matter if it's a bit far. If I can't buy this 10 mu of land, I can buy a 20 mu one, and then I can plant all 8 mu of my land here with grapes.
"I can rebuild a workshop on those 20 acres of land!"
Upon hearing this, the village chief's eyes widened.
"Village chief, this is my second option! I still prefer to choose a place closer to me, so I won't have to go through so much trouble. If the other party really doesn't want to buy, then I'll try the second method!"
"Okay, I understand! This is something I'll definitely get done for you. Even if I can't, I'll find you a good place!"
Luo Yunhe left.
After wandering around the village, he finally arrived at the large piece of land to the east. It was indeed 10 mu (approximately 1.65 acres), with a small hill in the middle and some terraced fields. Logically speaking, this kind of weather was really not good for him.
Excavation takes a long time, let alone building a workshop.
The time-consuming and labor-intensive deployment, which also requires a lot of money, is simply because it is close to us.
In the evening, after dinner, Luo Yunhe started working in the workshop.
After separating the wine from the lees, he began to bottle the wine and start the second fermentation of the lees.
He was busy until late at night, then quickly washed up and went back to his room to fall fast asleep.
She remained in this state for the next few days, constantly busy.
At the same time, he was waiting for the other party to send him a message.
One hundred bottles of Emperor's Smile wine, 50 bottles of regular wine, 50 bottles of dry red wine, 50 bottles of Osmanthus wine, and 50 bottles of Peach Blossom wine. Luo Yunhe. All were placed in their corresponding bottles, and the bottle openings were sealed with wax.
Finally, they found many wooden planks and made wooden boxes, placing all the wines on them one by one.
The sign above also reads "Luo Family Winery" and is sealed with some stickers.
These seals all bear the official stamp of the government, indicating that such items are not to be touched by others.
The advisor brought his men to collect the wine. Seeing that Luo Yun had already prepared everything, he happily had the wine loaded onto the cart.
"Girl, I congratulate you in advance on becoming a tribute wine merchant and bringing glory to our Yuntai City!"
"Thank you for your kind words, sir!"
After sending off this batch of wine, Luo Yunhe breathed a sigh of relief. Then, she took a closer look at the other bosses' orders and continued working.
These past few days have been extremely busy. I've visited their home several times, but they've been deliberately avoiding me and making things difficult for me.
Seeing this, the village chief's expression turned grim, and he immediately gathered all the villagers together.
"Everyone, is there anyone selling land? Twenty acres. You can register with me. The seller said that top-quality land is ten taels of silver per acre, and lower-quality land is eight taels of silver per acre."
Similarly, the other party could hire one worker per household, paying them two taels of silver per month.
The requirement is that the land must be adjacent to each other; it can't be scattered haphazardly!
The villagers were stunned when they heard this, and they all whispered among themselves.
There are some large households in the village, and many of them own 20 mu of land, but there are still no adjacent properties.
The village chief was aware of this, and seeing everyone discussing it enthusiastically, he took out a list and began reading it aloud.
After reading the names of about ten households, he put away the list and looked at them.
"Those of you who just read out the list, please stand up. Your land is all adjacent to each other, totaling about 20 acres. If you are willing to sell, you can come directly to me to register!"
"No!" A sharp voice rang out as soon as the village chief finished speaking. A woman carrying a child rushed over anxiously.
Behind him were a wealthy man and another man, who were also nervously heading in this direction.
"Village chief, how can you go back on your word? Weren't you going to buy my 10 mu of land? Why are you going to buy someone else's land now?"
"That's right, you came to our house saying you wanted to buy those 10 mu of land, so why are you buying other people's land now? Does someone else want 20 mu of land?"
"Hmph, it's your own greed that's insatiable. Everyone in your village knows that your stone mill isn't even top-grade, yet you still want to sell it for 15 taels of silver. You're just dreaming."
Furthermore, I've visited your home multiple times to discuss this matter, and what has been your attitude each time? Now that the other party doesn't want your land anymore and wants to buy 20 mu of land from someone else, what else do you have to say?
Upon hearing this, all the villagers turned to look at the family of four.
"Village chief, I'm willing to sell my few acres of land..."
"I'd like to too..."
Several people stepped forward one after another.
The woman holding the child became even more anxious.
"No, village chief, we didn't say we weren't willing to sell. We've just been discussing it. Why are you in such a hurry?"
"That's right, of course we're selling! How could we not sell? But is the price too low?"
"Your 10 mu of land isn't very well maintained; there are many stones, fields, and even a small hill. Giving you eight taels of silver per mu is already quite generous!"
