With the 50,000 taels of silver sent by Zhao Shuyan, Xiao Nuan's financial shortage was relieved.

She left 5,000 taels for Huang Zihou and Cui Qiao, and put the remaining 45,000 taels into her big plan. After supplementing the best human and financial resources for cotton spinning, Xiao Nuan said goodbye to his mother and Xiaocao, and took Wang Hanhao, Zhao Changqing and Liang Guoxiao, three cotton craftsmen and a group of people, out of the state to buy cotton fields.

Wang Hanhao and the three of them have a very good understanding of what kind of fields are suitable for growing cotton. So every time they went to a place, when Xiao Nuan visited the local market in the city, Wang Hanhao and the three of them went separately to look for two days suitable for planting cotton.

Looking for six or seven places, the price given by Xiao Nuan is reasonable, and you can always find a family that you are willing to sell.

The grange is not too big, twenty or thirty acres to one or two hundred acres is enough. Xiao Nuan bought the grange in order to experiment locally on how much cotton wool per mu can be produced under the condition of excellent planting. If the local yield is high, buy more fertile land, and sell it if the yield is low.

decided to buy cotton fields in one place, Xiao Nuan took Zhuge Qing and Green Butterfly to take a closer look, and saw that the county seat or state town here was suitable for cotton spinning, silk or neon clothes. If it is not suitable, look for a local store to join Ayaluo Nishang.

Her goal is to connect the cotton fields and stores everywhere, from point to line, and then from line to surface, to build a spider web of cotton fields, stores, and franchise stores, and the cobwebs help and supervise each other.

She, Green Butterfly, Qin San, Zhuge Qing, the showcase, and Zhanfu and other core stewards are the spiders who maintain this spider web. If one or two shops or Zhuangzi in the cobwebs go wrong, the whole cobweb will not lose its ability to catch insects, and they will also have time to fill the webs nearby.

After she transferred to three states and bought the 25th Village, she not only used up the 45,000 taels she brought out, but also used up the 20,000 taels she sent over. Xiao Nuan said regretfully, "Let's go home for the New Year first, and then expand east when we have the surplus silver in our hands after the New Year." ”

Unintentionally planted willows and willows, she sent someone to plant cotton in response to Wuyu's invitation. Hua Chi and the cottonsmith she sent Mu Diping, but they grew very good quality cotton there.

The steward she sent to Mobei three months ago also brought back good news, there were many wealthy families there, and the demand for cotton and silk was enough to feed their shops, and that there was a necessary place on the Silk Road, and the surplus goods could be transported to the outside world through the Silk Road.

Although the eastern part is not as prosperous as the western part, the price of fertile land is also cheap. So Xiao Nuan decided to follow the Silk Road and set up a few more fertile fields and shops. Although the Silk Road is not peaceful, Xiao Nuan firmly believes that no one dares to touch her shop and land.

Because in the officialdom, the name of the third master is enough to deter local civil and military officials; In the rivers and lakes, the reputation of Shangqing Palace is also known to everyone, and it is quite weighty.

Chen Xiaonuan, the lord of Wenchang County, is the princess of Sheng and the ninth disciple of the Shangqing Palace, and the official face and the rivers and lakes have to buy her a little face. If the face is not enough, Xiao Nuan also has the strength to go to the knife. The addition of face and knives is enough to ensure that her shop and good land are worry-free.

The advantages that can be borrowed, Xiao Nuan will not let it go.

The spacious carriage back home kept the cold wind out of the carport, and the charcoal brazier burned inside, and it was as warm as spring. Xiao Nuan looked at the newly added Zhuangzi and shop under his name, and was very satisfied.

Green Butterfly is straight, so she asked, "Since you have an advantage, you have to use it, why don't you use the third master's silver?" As long as the girl is willing to open her mouth, the third master will send you a lot of silver. ”

The Xuan Dance and Qiu Yue in the car listened attentively. Because this problem has been bothering them for a long time. The girl is willing to borrow Zhao Shuyan's silver, why not borrow the third master's?

It is true that Zhao Shuyan is a trustworthy business partner, but the third master is her fiancé, if the relationship is concerned, the third master should be closer, right?

After Xuan Wu and Xuan Er discussed, they didn't dare to tell the third master about it, otherwise with the third master's temper, I was afraid that it would make things out of control. The third master and the girl are both stubborn.

Only Zhuge Qing is still smiling, he believes that the girl has her own sense of proportion, and if the girl doesn't say it, he won't ask, anyway, the third master's anger, the girl has a way to settle it.

Xiao Nuan saw that they were all concerned about this issue, so she patiently explained, "You also said that the third master is only my fiancé now, and I can't be justified enough to use his money, so I can use it as I like after I get married." Second, the third master is also very nervous, and I can't make trouble for him anymore. ”

Although the third master didn't mention it to her, Qin Ji had to go all out to snipe the Cheng family's business everywhere, and the pressure was not small. Xiao Nuan can understand from the recent practices of the Ninth Dart Game that she has cooperated with can understand that their money is also tight now.

In addition to Qin Ji, the third master also revealed to her that he was laying out Dengzhou and Xijin for the future. The arrangement of officialdom, power and money are indispensable, which is related to the retreat of her and the third master, and it is worth spending any amount of money.

It is precisely because of this that Xiao Nuan would rather borrow money from Yinzhuang now than cause trouble to the third master.

After speaking, Xiao Nuan told Zhuge Qing and Xuan Wu again, "This matter, if we can solve it, don't make trouble for the third master." ”

Zhuge Qing nodded, and Xuan Wu immediately said, "Except for the girl's whereabouts, other subordinates don't have to report to the third master." ”

When the third master sent Xuan Wu over, he explained it very clearly as he did when he sent Green Butterfly over. They will be the girl's subordinates from now on, and they will take the girl's orders first in everything. As long as it doesn't involve the safety of life, the girl is happy.

After Qiu Yue heard this, the stone in her heart finally let go, and when she put away the account book for the girl, she glanced at it, and said with a smile, "After going back, Madame knows that the grange that the girl has purchased has reached the twenty-fifth, and her mouth will not close." ”

In the eyes of my mother, the shop said that there was no one, but the grange was a real family property. As long as Arida is there, he doesn't have to worry about being hungry.

Xiao Nuan curled the corners of her mouth, "If my mother and Xiaocao want to, I will take them to inspect the grange one by one next spring, and it will take nearly two months to walk around." Let's come out in the spring, and it's time to go back to summer. ”

Twenty-five Zhuangzi, except for the fifth and sixth villages, which are the third master's, the rest are hers, Xiao Nuan grinned and was full of a sense of achievement.

Green Butterfly shook her head, "As soon as the summer girl enters the summer, she will get married." The slave maid felt that in addition to the first six Granges next spring, the rest of them would have to wait until the girls got married, and the lady would have the heart to look at them one by one. ”

Xuan Wu quipped, "When the girl becomes a parent, I'm afraid I won't have time to go out of Beijing to see the Grange." ”

"When the time comes, I can take the third master out with me, and I will be more interested." Xiao Nuan smiled wickedly.

A carload of people laughed, and Qiu Yue lowered her red face. The girl smiled like this, and her heart trembled when she saw it.

Xu used to often pretend to be a man, but now she often wears men's clothes, and the girl's speech and demeanor are a mixture of the man's ease and the woman's gentleness. Others don't know what Qiu Yue thinks, anyway, she is often hooked by the girl's shallow smile.

Whenever this happens, she thinks how nice it would be if the girl was a real man.

The carriage stopped in front of the door of the roadside inn, Xiao Nuan got out of the car, looked up at the cold air, looked at the thousands of miles of yellow clouds and white snow and sighed, "It's really fast, it's going to be the New Year again." ”

Wax Moon, Winter, New Year. In the first few New Years, they had to travel between the capital and Jixian, but this year they don't need to, they can spend a peaceful New Year on the kang at home.
