When I saw He Xuquan in the main hall and the little girl hiding behind He Xuquan, I glared at the little girl fiercely, "Why are you running so fast?"
He hadn't been to Qingxifang for a while. When he walked into the alley, he found out that he could no longer find his way to Qingxifang.
Fortunately, I met two neighbors who happened to be out and found out more about it.
The little girl stuck out her tongue at Lu Fang, wrinkled her nose and said, "Who asked you to scare me!"
"Xi'er, don't be rude."
He Xuquan patted the little girl's head gently.
The little girl still wrinkled her nose at Lu Fang and said aggrievedly: "He was the one who scared me first."
He Xuquan shook his head helplessly.
Naturally, he was reluctant to really scold the little girl. He brought the little girl from his hometown, and she was the only one left in the family.
Lu Fang said: "I knew I was trying to scare you, but you still ran so fast. Do you know, Master, I almost got lost."
The little girl was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter, "It's so embarrassing that you can get lost at such an old age."
He Xuquan patted her head again, "Don't be rude to your boss, go make tea."
The little girl still laughed at Lu Fang twice, made a shy expression, and then went to make tea.
He Xuquan asked Lu Fang to sit down and said, "My boss, I have already made an agreement with the two neighbors next to them. It's just...the price they want is a bit high."
Lu Fang said with a smile: "I didn't plan to move originally. If I can sell the house to us, it's already a sign of respect. It's normal to ask for a higher price."
He had already been mentally prepared for this.
These days, people are very particular about returning to their roots. There are very few people who are willing to give up their ancestral homes. Unless they are desperate, almost no one is selling their ancestral homes.
The fact that He Xuquan was able to negotiate with him is already because he is popular enough.
"They won't move until I offer two hundred taels..."
He Xuquan said a little embarrassedly.
This price is not high, but very high.
You know, Lu Fang only bought the BESTORE store for only 200 taels.
Qingxifang's land is twice the size of an ordinary house, and it only costs three hundred taels with all the things inside.
According to the market price, the ordinary houses next to Qingxifang only cost one hundred and eighty taels.
But Lu Fang still nodded readily, "Yes, it's just this price. Just ask them to come over and sign the documents with me."
He Xuquan breathed a sigh of relief and walked out.
Regarding the expansion of Qingxifang, he was even more concerned than Lu Fang. Just now, he was still a little worried that Lu Fang would not agree.
After a while, the male owners of the two neighboring houses and the landowner came over.
Lu Fang readily paid the money and signed the document.
Once the land deed was obtained, two more properties were acquired.
In the blink of an eye, he already owned five properties in Ningyuan County. With these alone, he could barely be considered a rich man in Ningyuan County.
But Lu Fang knew that this would be nothing in Tanzhou.
These days, the poor have nothing to eat, but the rich can be frighteningly rich.
After the two neighbors and the landowner left, he left another one hundred taels of silver banknotes to He Xuquan, asking him to renovate the place and recruit workers, and then left Qingxifang.
Then we went to the new winery.
In just the past two days, He Zhigao has hired a dozen workers at the shelter.
But for now, the site of the new winery is still sufficient.
Since only distillation, blending and cellaring are done in the wine cellar, it doesn’t require much space.
Lu Fang only wandered around for a while and then left.
…
Tanzhou.
After these few days of training, Pan Kui's injury has improved a lot.
She was already rough-skinned and thick-skinned, and Lu Fang didn't actually hurt her that badly at that time.
But Pan Kui's hatred for Lu Fang could not be increased.
In the past few days, while I was lying in bed recuperating, Lu Fang's hateful face popped up in my head from time to time, and I couldn't help but give Lu Fang a few waves of hatred.
Antique room.
A solid wood bed carved with complex and fine patterns.
Even the bedding is made of fine silk quilt with exquisite and detailed patterns, showing that the workmanship is expensive.
It's just that Pan Kui lying inside is a bit rough.
Rao's face was a little pale due to the injury, and she couldn't see any of the gentle temperament of a Jingnan County woman.
She doesn't look like a woman born in a water town at all.
"Bring me my shoes, I want to go out."
Pan Kui's voice suddenly sounded in the originally silent room.
Next to the bed, stood this thin man. He looked quite good and had the air of a scholar.
"Madam, your injury has not healed yet. Where are you going out now?"
When the man heard Pan Kui's words, he said quickly. The deep humility on his face almost completely covered up the elegant aura.
It is difficult for a scholar who cannot straighten his body to have character.
This man was none other than Pan Kui's husband. Li Xiaocai, now the Recorder of Tanzhou Prefecture, joined the army.
In fact, the official who recorded affairs and joined the army was already considered a very respectable official in Tanzhou Prefecture, but unfortunately, he was a married woman, so he could never hold his head high in front of Pan Kui.
During the past few days when Pan Kui was recuperating from his injury, he didn't even dare to go to the military yamen, but waited diligently at his bedside every day.
"Where to go?"
When Pan Kui heard this, his thick eyebrows stood up, "Why don't you go apologize to the princess for the trouble you, a loser, caused!"
Li Xiaocai was a little dazed, "Madam, are you going to apologize to the princess?"
He knew Pan Kui's character best, and was overbearing. He never thought that she would be willing to apologize to the princess.
"snort!"
Pan Kui snorted coldly: "This is what daddy told me. If you don't apologize to the princess, how can you deal with that bastard named Lu Fang in the future?"
Thinking of Lu Fang, I couldn't help but grit my teeth.
Then, looking at Li Xiaocai still standing in front of him, he slapped Li Xiaocai on the face, "Why don't you go get my shoes? Are you just waiting for death?"
She didn't know why she fell in love with this loser in the first place.
Maybe it was because I thought he had a bit of a scholar's character in the past, but after marrying into the family, I realized that this guy is just a fool.
In front of myself and my father, I didn't even dare to express my anger.
Li Xiaocai was slapped, and he didn't even dare to cover his face, so he quickly went to get his shoes.
I don't know if he would cry in grievance if he knew what Pan Kui was thinking at this time.
The father and daughter of the Pan family are stronger than the other, and Pan Kui is also a martial artist. He wants to be tough, but can he be tough?
A son-in-law who cuts in the door has no status in the first place.
After getting the shoes, she had to endure the burning pain on her face and carefully put the shoes on for Pan Kui.
Then he stood aside obediently.
He looked groveling, just like a slave.
Looking at Pan Kui's sinister face, Chen Youxi's beautiful figure suddenly appeared in Li Xiaocai's mind.
Maybe, if I could stick to my vow to Chen Youxi back then, I should treat Chen Youxi with respect and respect now, right?
But...if I hadn't married Pan Kui, how could I have become the secretary of Tanzhou Prefecture and joined the army?
How can we become a promising person in the eyes of our fellow villagers and shine on our family tree?
