Butler Lin didn't want to rest, but when he mentioned the matter of the warehouse in the county lord's mansion, Butler Xiao sent him to buy land with Xiao Zhan so that he could build the main granary in the county.

Butler Lin said dissatisfiedly: "What kind of granary is built? Could it be that the county lord wants to be a grain merchant?"

Butler Xiao touched his beard and said, "Maybe the county lord is thinking this way?" He sold the valuable things in the warehouse and bought shops on the street. Maybe he really wanted to set an example, develop the economy and promote local consumption.

At this time, Xiao Zhan came over and saluted to the two of them. After all, the two housekeepers were both superiors and elders: "The county lord has his life, so that the housekeeper Lin will be well raised. Tomorrow and I will go to the city to pick up suitable land. In seven days, go to the capital."

Butler Lin was stunned and said in a daze: "You still have to go to the capital?" He has only been back for a few days, so why are you going again? He also said he couldn't bear to separate from his family and asked him to bring his family here. After that, after he was brought, he was separated by many people.

Xiao Zhan responded: "The letter of the Lord mentioned that the melon is as sweet as honey, with a long aftertaste. It seems that I like it very much. So the county lord is sending the second car. As long as the Lord and his wife like it, they plan to pay tribute from time to time."

The King of Han said it, and it might not be really eaten. But the county lord took it seriously!

Before Mr. Lin rolled his eyes, Xiao Zhan said, "This time the county lord asked us to bring ten carts of melons, and it would be a tael of silver per. By the way, I would also buy charcoal and come back with a cotton coat."

Butler Lin was stunned: "So early summer, what charcoal and cotton coats should I buy?"

Xiao Zhan smiled and said, "The county lord said that the remaining charcoal and cotton coats are cheaper because it is just summer. And in autumn, new cotton can be collected again, and it is the best time to buy it."

Butler Lin was choked and couldn't speak. He was so angry that he said half-heartedly: "Buy charcoal cotton in summer, do you buy ice in winter?"

Butler Xiao persuaded him kindly: "The county lord has his own idea. Anyway, these are not worth much money. Every time the melons shipped over, the money sold is enough to buy them."

Xiao Zhan immediately said: "That's right, the county lord said that she would buy all the money for selling melons in the future and bring it back along the way. All the money would have to be spent, and as much as possible. The county lord also said that she planned to reclaim wasteland and buy farm tools. Anyway, I will be busy with Butler Lin in the future!"

That is to say, he went from a butler to an errand businessman. Butler Lin was so angry that he couldn't speak and left with his sleeves. Didn't he say he wanted to rest, so he went to rest and didn't care.

After buying the land, Xining looked at it again, looked at the sketch of the granary and the budget. He allocated 500 taels of silver from the warehouse, and built a grain warehouse and a wheat warehouse in the middle of the city one mile away. The bungalow next to it was used to store soybeans.

Soybeans are good things, they can be used as food and are very hungry. Moreover, there are already people selling tofu in this dynasty.

Xining called three people and asked Xiao Zhan to write a letter first.

Xining cleared his throat and slowly recited: "Your Majesty, when you receive the holy letter, your ministers are frightened. Your ministers must follow the holy edict and cultivate your character and settle the people in the town. When you learn that the emperor has a high evaluation of the honey melons here, you have made another criticism. This place is barren and there is nothing else to offer. I hope you don't laugh."

After writing, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. This time the letter was not written.

Xining asked someone to bring up the bamboo slips, read them a few times, and picked up the pen and signed the name.

Then there are some things to be explained: "I will leave the granary to Butler Xiao. This time I went there, butler Lin and Manager Xiao. You have been there once and are familiar with each other, so I feel at ease to send you there."

Butler Lin could only bow: "This is a small matter, so the county magistrate is polite."

Xining smiled and said, "Butler Xiao, you have a long way to go. No matter what the county lord's office is, you have to take good care of the family members of Butler Lin and Manager Xiao. If there is anything wrong with their families, I will ask you."

Butler Xiao immediately smiled and said, "Please rest assured by the county lord, I will take good care of you."

Xining looked caring again: "Mr. Lin's family just came here and had to settle everything, so the expenses must be huge. Starting this month, we will pay an additional five taels of silver per month for Manager Lin every month, and Manager Xiao will pay according to the monthly payment of Manager Xiao."

Only five taels of silver was added. This time I went to the capital and the melons were sold, but Xiao Zhan, a kid, sold melons and took care of money. Even if the money was in his hands, it would be difficult to be greedy. It seems that the good days in the future will never be returned.

Butler Lin also bowed and thanked him.

Xining saw it clearly. You should know that the guards who guard the house guards only cost five taels of silver per month. When they encounter thieves and robbers, they can fight for their lives. You are a housekeeper, and now the moon silver is already ten taels, and they can catch up with the sword guards and the Golden Gourd Warriors in the palace, but they are still not satisfied.

It's really a bottomless pit that cannot be filled. The previous account book seemed to be organized, but many of it were actually false reports. The flowers and plants in this yard were all as expensive as the royal garden. Anyway, remember this account first, and it's not the time to manage him. After the winter, the Huns would come over. She still had a lot of things to do and could not deal with people first, but no one could use it.

Afterwards, she called Butler Xiao alone and asked Butler Xiao to remind Xiao Zhan to look at Butler Lin. But just look at him and don't stop him. Just want her to report if there is anything.

When Butler Xiao heard this, he immediately told me that Butler Lin had contact with the people in the palace.

After hearing this, Xining just nodded and said he knew. He made a promise to pay attention as much as possible, so that the benefits of their uncle and nephew will not be missed.

The granary was mentioned again, and asked Butler Xiao to go to the warehouse to withdraw twenty taels of silver as a backup. If the granary was well built and could not be spent, it would be the hard work of Butler Xiao. Butler Xiao would be the hard work. But if it was not well repaired...

Xining shook the fan with a smile on her face: "Diet not only means beheading, but there are ways to peel and cramp. Anyway, the granary I want is strong enough, waterproof and moisture-proof. Do you understand?"

Butler Xiao's heart trembled and he immediately said yes.

After Butler Xiao left, Jing'er entered the house and knelt down and said, "Minister, I came back just now. When I saw Butler Xiao leave, I was happy with a smile on my face."

Xining shook the fan: "It's a day to be happy. Now there is no way to use him. As long as I can use it for my own purposes, I won't treat it unfairly."

Jing'er saw the county lord looking at her with his eyes, and quickly crawled on the ground, saying loyal words.

"Okay." Xining said leisurely: "I have been with me for more than ten years. If I don't believe your loyal words, who else can I believe it? Come on, you also eat a piece of melon. Today, this melon is very sweet. If I weren't afraid of eating a bad stomach, I would have eaten it all. I would have put it there and chilled, waiting for you to come back for you to eat."

This moved Jing'er so much that she held the melon in both hands, and after thanking her, she ate it in one bite.
