098 Buying land and shops

When Zheng Peng came back, he didn't bring gold, nor did he ask for the seductive pair of twin sisters.

Since you want to give favors, you should simply send it thoroughly, send half and receive half, I feel uncomfortable, and I say that there are more icing on the cake, and less charcoal in the snow, and pushing it when Guo Fu needs help the most, which is considered an investment.

Outside the grass and the sun, the scenery is picturesque, Zheng Fu guessed well, Zheng Peng's mind is no longer here at this moment.

Guixiang is a beautiful and quiet small county, life is comfortable and comfortable, here to be a carefree prosperous rich man or pension is good, but after the night of horror, Zheng Peng's mood has changed, the goal has also changed, this small city full of memories, can no longer accommodate Zheng Peng's heart that wants to fly.

Here, at most, he is a small landlord with a little richer, there are too few opportunities, no matter how hard he tries, he can't fight the invincible Cui Yuan, and he can't let Lu Shu return to him, while he is young, it is better to run to a broader world.

In fact, from the moment he saw Cui Yuan, Zheng Peng had this idea, but the development of new printing was in the final stage, and he wanted to do it well before he planned it.

Now, the new printing has been successfully developed, and it is regarded as a favor to help Guo Fu return to officialdom, which also saves a lot of trouble, and there is no need to worry about what books to print, how to set prices, and how to open up sales.

After watching quietly for a while, Zheng Peng slowly lowered the curtain and said lightly, "Go back." ”

Zheng Fu hurriedly responded, flicked the long whip, hit the horse with a "snap", and drove home, at this time, the sun was setting, and the golden sunlight shone on the carriage, as if the carriage was dressed in a golden coat....

At this moment, in the study of Guo's mansion, Old Man Guo and Guo Hong were discussing while drinking hangover soup.

"I really didn't expect Zheng Peng to give us all the credit." Guo Hong still can't believe it.

Old man Guo smiled indifferently: "Give up a merit and get the friendship of my noble country Guo, how can this little man do a loss-making business, but he is talented and measured, but he is also a friend worth making deeply, Hong'er, remember, no matter what the result of this dedication, Zheng Peng is a friend of our Guo family, the most respected friend." ”

"Got it, uncle." Guo Hong said with a straight face.

After thinking about it, Guo Hong said with some hesitation: "Uncle, my nephew has something, I don't know whether to say it or not." ”

"It's all my own family, what shouldn't I say?"

Guo Hong whispered: "About a month ago, a group of mysterious people appeared in Guixiang, they were very secretive, and their actions were very simple, but the target was not us, and the next day, Zheng Peng's very favored personal maid disappeared, and some people said that they saw the man in black near Zheng's house." ”

"Why didn't you say this earlier?" Old man Guo's expression tightened, and he hurriedly said.

"Didn't there be a fire in the county government's house, so many materials were burned, and the Hu Si of the household asked us to help rebuild the archives, which can be a lot of convenience, and I didn't see any movement in the Zheng family, I thought it was the imperial court secretly investigating us, so I pretended not to know, from Zheng Peng's recent transformation, it seems that the incident that night is very likely to be related to him."

Old man Guo nodded lightly: "Yes, this kid has matured a lot recently, in the past, he may not have given us the credit so easily, there should be some changes, the court secretly visited the virtuous?" Don't be so mysterious, could it be someone from the Zheng family in Xingyang, seeing that he would perform well in Lanting, and want to win him back to the family to cultivate? It's not sneaky, forget it, it's okay, you have to pay more attention in the future, don't let people target you yet. ”

"Got it, uncle." After Guo Hong finished speaking, he said with some expectation: "Uncle, are you writing a letter to Lord You, asking him to help arrange it, and find an opportunity to present the new printing technique?" ”

When to dedicate and how to dedicate is a science, and to find someone to recommend you has to pick a time when the emperor is in a good mood, and you can't be sloppy, these must be planned and then acted.

"This is a big deal, Hong'er, pen and ink are waiting, the old man has to think about it." Old man Guo shook his head and said.

Guo Hong's eyes lit up, and he answered, and ran to grind the ink, which was related to his future and fate, so he was naturally very concerned.

Early the next morning, a fast horse rushed out of the back gate of Guo's mansion, went out of the city gate and went straight to the official road, galloping in the direction of Chang'an.

When Guo Fu was trying to regain his former glory, Zheng Peng was also planning his future.

If you want to get greater development and more opportunities, you have to go to a bigger and broader world, Zheng Peng decided to leave Guixiang County and go to Chang'an, the political and cultural center of Datang.

But before you go, you have to settle down here, so you don't have to worry about it, it's not good to mix outside, at least there is a way out, and you can still act as your own backing when you need to.

Nakashima's business can't be lost, and the family's income and expenses must also be dealt with, at least without Nakajima's support.

If you want to have an income, it is best to invest, and the best investment goal is to have a field and a shop.

Zheng Peng is going to build a grange and open a few more shops to be taken care of by Zheng Fu, when the braised meat will not be divided, relying on the harvest in the field and the profits of the store, it can also maintain the normal expenses of the family.

Early the next morning, Zheng Peng finished breakfast and immediately changed Zheng Fu's conversation: "How much money is still in the account now?" ”

Lu Shu is not here, and now the accounts are all taken care of by Zheng Fu.

Zheng Fu said respectfully: "Back to the young master's words, the money in the account, plus the new one hundred taels of gold, totals one hundred and thirty taels of gold, and the money is one thousand two hundred and sixty-seven and five hundred and twenty-six wen. ”

Now Zheng Peng's finances are a bit simple, his income depends on Zhongdao's dividends, and his expenses are also ordinary food, clothing, housing and transportation, which is like a pediatric for Zheng Fu, who has served dozens of families and managed thousands of servants.

After speaking, Zheng Fu immediately added: "Zhongdao's dividends are a quarter and a knot, and it is estimated that the dividends will come down in a few days." ”

Thousands of dollars of cash lying at home to sleep, I really don't know how to manage money, this money is not much, it is not too little, it is not bad to buy a family business.

One hundred and thirty taels of gold, of which one hundred taels Cui Yuan left, can be regarded as compensation to Zheng Peng, if there is no money, there will be more than a thousand yuan.

"Well, how is the market of the fields now, Young Master Ben is going to buy some fields."

When Zheng Fu heard that Zheng Peng wanted to buy a field, he said happily: "Young master, the price of land is a bit high now, about 12 acres of dry land, and nearly 20 acres of good paddy fields, and it depends on luck." ”

There is no disease or disaster, and no one will easily sell the land in their hands.

Money in the warehouse, will never become more, can be replaced into a field, there is output every year, this is the real money to make money, as an excellent housekeeper, naturally hope that the owner's wealth is more and more, more and more healthy, Zheng Fu reminded Zheng Peng several times, but Zheng Peng can't look down on that little output, has not listened to Zheng Fu's advice.

Now that Zheng Peng took the initiative, Zheng Fu was happy and a little reluctant in his heart.

Obviously, the young master was determined to leave here, and before leaving, he specially bought an inheritance.

Once there is a problem with the braised meat, you can't ask the young master to send money all the way over to support a group of housekeepers, right?

"Go and see, buy it as long as it's suitable, it doesn't matter if the price is a little higher, except for the fields, take a look at the store, and take a few plates, by the way, ask the big housekeeper of the Guo Mansion for help in this matter, just say it's what I mean."

Guo Fu is a well-deserved head snake in your township, a local wealthy family, not only famous, but also clear about local affairs, with his help, twice the result with half the effort.

"Young master, how many fields are you going to buy, that shop..."

Zheng Peng thought about it, and soon had an answer: "The field is best to find a contiguous piece, so that it can be made into a small grange, easy to manage, a small grange must be at least 100 acres, and the store will find the kind of stable and long-flowing water, just two or three, don't worry about money, how much to spend, not enough for me to make up." ”

Having a field and a shop is equal to double insurance.

Zheng Fu answered, and then went to inquire with a smile on his face.

Only three days later, Zheng Fu sent back good news.
