Zhenfubao waved his hand and the warehouse was full of grain, and the whole family regretted it

Chapter 349 Buying a Mountain and a Farm

Zhou Wensheng's legs went limp and he fell to his knees with a plop. His crotch quickly became wet and emitted a pungent smell.

He looked at the yellow-haired man in front of him in horror and said, "Huang... Manager Huang, I... I really know I was wrong. I won't dare to do it again next time. Please let me go!"

The yellow-haired man stopped and looked down at him, without a trace of pity in his eyes. "There is no order without rules. What do you think this village is? A place where you can betray me whenever you want?"

"You brought outsiders into the village and broke the rules. If I don't punish you today, who will take my words seriously in the future?"

When Zhou Wensheng heard this, he was terrified and struggled desperately, but several tall and strong men quickly surrounded him and held him down.

He let out a desperate scream, and the sound echoed in the mountain village for a long time.

Lin Dachang and his cronies huddled together, their legs trembling and their faces as pale as paper.

Lin Dachang shouted, "I want to see Zhao Qiaoniang. I'm her brother. If you dare to offend me, you're done for. When Zhao Qiaoniang comes back, I'll ask her to kill you."

Huang Mao sneered and said, "Tie them up and lock them up in the stable. Wait until the boss comes back tomorrow."

Zhang Sheng often loved to talk about his status as a scholar.

His face was covered in cold sweat, his body was trembling, and he tried to straighten his back, trying to show the dignity of a scholar:

"You...you can't do this! We are all scholars, and I am a scholar.

If you dare to attack us, then...then the government will not let you go!"

Upon hearing this, Huang Mao sneered disdainfully and said, "Scholar? Scholar? In my village, even the king of heaven has to abide by my rules!"

That night, Lin Dachang was shivering with cold in the stable, his body shaking uncontrollably.

His face was frozen purple and his eyes were full of despair. He just hoped that this long dark night would pass quickly.

On Lin Wanwan's side, Mrs. Bai was busy depositing most of the gold bars into the business bank, and they went straight to the pawnshop.

As soon as they stepped in, the staff came to greet them with a professional smile on their faces, led them into the house and served them tea.

Master Bai didn't waste time and asked directly, "Can you trade in the forests on the mountain here?"

Xiao Sun came over and said with a look of surprise, "Long time no see. Are you planning to buy a mountain? That depends on which mountain it is."

Master Bai then told them the mountains where they were.

Xiao Sun thought for a moment and shook his head regretfully:

“We currently have no transactions related to these mountains, but don’t worry, I will go to the government office to inquire for you.

If the government agrees to sell it, we will definitely help you with the subsequent procedures."

In less than half an hour, Xiao Sun came back, holding a stack of papers tightly in his hand, with a smile on his face, and walked straight towards Master Bai and others.

"Dear guests, I've finally gotten the details!" Xiao Sun said as he gently spread the contract on the table. "These mountains have never been traded before, so they've been left uncultivated. We're just waiting for you to identify their treasures!"

He paused, picked up the tea on the table, took a gulp, moistened his dry throat and said:

"Look, here, here, and here, this huge piece of mountain, if you all want it, the price is absolutely fair!

All in all, it only costs five thousand taels of silver!"

Lin Wanwan counted eight large hills and found that they only cost five thousand taels, which was quite cheap.

Master Bai stroked his beard and said, "Your mountain is still too expensive..."

Looking around, there are almost no other valuable products on the mountain except for the occasional wild game such as rabbits and pheasants, and the medicinal herbs scattered in the mountains and forests.

Xiao Sun smiled faintly and said:

“It’s really not worth it, so I contacted the government officials.

I'll give you all twelve of these mountains. What do you think?"

Xiao Sun had tasted the sweetness. The last time he cooperated with Master Bai, he was directly made the head manager of the pawnshop.

Master Bai patted his shoulder and said, "Xiao Sun! Thank you so much!"

Xiao Sun quickly bowed and said, "If it weren't for your kindness, I wouldn't be able to take this position as a manager. If you want to buy anything else, you can come to me."

Master Bai nodded and said, "This is our second collaboration. I was also wondering if there's any good farmland for sale anywhere."

Xiao Sun quickly introduced enthusiastically:

“Although the number of fertile fields in our town is not large, the other surrounding towns are full of our industries and fertile fields!

Take, for example, the large farm on the hill next to you; it has over 800 acres of fertile land!"

“The soil there is of the finest quality, and the fields are normally well irrigated.

Whether it is rice, wheat, or corn, there is a bumper harvest every year.

The farm is now asking over 10,000 taels, so it's definitely a good deal!" Xiao Sun kept promoting it.

Master Bai looked at Madam Bai and said, "Madam, what do you think about buying more farms?"

Madam Bai smiled and said:

“Naturally it’s good, with Zhuangzi you can be self-sufficient.

All of these farms can serve as our Wanwan's dowry, but we want a bigger farm."

Xiao Sun opened another booklet and pointed at the map and said:

“As for our Longhu Gang, I can’t say much about other things, but we own so many manors and shops that we can’t even count them.

Since you want to buy a farm, I have a few particularly good ones here. I will take you to see them in person later.

If it suits your taste, we will take it immediately. If not, we can take our time to choose."

Madam Bai nodded slightly and said, "We want a farm near this mountain range, preferably one that's closer. It would be difficult to manage if it's too far away."

Xiao Sun quickly responded:

"Of course, that's right. Look, the farm I just mentioned with 800 acres of fertile land is quite good.

And this farm is only a stick of incense away by carriage from where you are."

This manor used to be the villa of a nobleman, and was built in a very luxurious and grand manner.

If I were to sell it, the price would naturally be quite high, perhaps one hundred thousand taels of silver, but this is definitely a steal!"

Mrs. Bai was surprised and asked, "What kind of manor is worth 100,000 taels? We can go and take a look."

What they lack the least now is people. The village is overcrowded. Even if most of them have gone to Wangxian Valley, there are still many people.

As soon as I stepped into this huge manor, which was said to be worth 100,000 taels, I found it was quiet all around and there was not even a gatekeeper on duty.

Xiao Sun and his group stood in the empty courtyard, surrounded by a desolate atmosphere.

Weeds grew wildly in the yard, spider webs were scattered in the corners, and the occasional chirping of unknown insects made the place seem even more desolate.

Master Bai was also dumbfounded: "Is this the 100,000 taels manor you mentioned?"
