Gu Fei saw her mother wandering around and asked: "What, there is no place to cook?"
Mrs. Chen sighed, "The stove is not enough, I think this is not a long-term solution. One day It's okay for two days. We share a kitchen and a yard. Everyone's teeth will inevitably touch their tongues. I think something will happen sooner or later."
Gu Fei nodded, "Mom, don't worry, let dad ask Liu tomorrow. Zhuangtou, let's see if there is a house for rent around here. Let's rent a house first."
Gu Zhang said from the side: "Don't wait until tomorrow. I'll go and ask now. We don't have anything to eat anyway.
Gu Fei thought for a while and said, "Dad, please ask if there is any place to buy it around here." Gu
Zhang nodded, "Okay, I'll ask you too."
Gu Fei brought up a piece of bacon. There should be a bag of brown sugar. He came out and said, "Dad, take these with you."
Chen smiled and said, "Xiao Fei has grown up."
Gu Zhang left with the bacon and brown sugar.
Mrs. Chen simply asked Gu Fei to bring out some dumplings, and after a while, she went to the kitchen.
Unexpectedly, there are still not many stoves after going there.
Auntie and Aunt Liu have left, Shan Zima is using one, Yu is using the other, and Qian is still there wondering what to do.
Chen had no choice but to turn around again.
When we passed by again, there was finally no one in the kitchen.
Mrs. Chen was just about to get water to cook dumplings when she saw that some of the firewood piled up in the kitchen had been used up, and the water tank that Erlang Sanlang had been filled with had also drained a lot.
Mrs. Chen then sent Li Chunhua to ask Gu Qing and others to go outside to collect some firewood.
After struggling for a while, the dumplings were cooked.
When Gu Zhang came back, dinner was just about to begin.
One person brought a bowl of dumplings and ate them in the main hall.
After eating the dumplings, when the old lady entered the room, Lian'er and Lanzhi went to wash the dishes. Gu Zhang then called the family together and whispered: "I just asked Liu Zhuangtou about the places around Ping'an City. The land is all paddy fields, and now it costs eighty taels of silver per acre."
Chen frowned, "So expensive?"
In her hometown, the best dry land only cost two or three taels of silver per acre, and the paddy fields cost only five taels of silver per acre.
Gu Zhang shook his head, "You think it's too expensive, so you can't buy it."
"Most of the suburbs of this city are owned by officials and wealthy businessmen. There are few takeaways. Occasionally, those for sale are also very popular. As long as the news gets out, it will be very popular." It will be sold soon."
"If we want to buy land, we can only buy it far away."
Gu Fei shook her head. "It's far away and it's not convenient to go to the city."
She planned to grow peppers and sell them in Ping'an City. The population is close to one million and has extremely strong consumption power.
Chili peppers must not be sold too cheap when they first come out. People only want food and clothing. It is estimated that only those rich people who pursue the ultimate taste of food will be willing to buy them.
It's too far from the city, so it's not convenient to buy or sell anything.
Gu Zhang nodded, "That's what I said."
"However, Liu Zhuangtou revealed a piece of information to me, saying that there is a village not far from here, with about two hundred acres of land, and a few acres of land. Shuitang belongs to a criminal official. He said that his family planned to sell the money to support the government. The news was only released today. However, the land is not sold in pieces. If you want to buy it, you can buy it together. The price is two thousand taels of silver."
Mrs. Chen opened her mouth. " How much?"
Gu Zhang said again, "Two thousand taels!"
Gu Fei twitched her lips, "Dad, it's still about the same."
After spending all this time, she still had almost two hundred and fifty taels of silver left . .
It's enough to buy more than 20 acres of land.
Always keep some money on hand for turnover.
