Traveling through the years of disaster, I took Lingquan Space to escape the famine
Chapter 96 Divide the land
The village chief didn't think there was any problem.
In this day and age, it is already very good to have a map to look at. Who cares whether the area ratio is fine or not? It would probably be good to have one.
"Let's go to Beicun. Currently, these are the only places that have vacant land that can be used as homesteads. Look, which piece of land do you want to choose?"
The village chief was afraid that Lin Jiuyue would misunderstand, so he explained it specially.
"These pieces of land were specially set aside by the government for the use of the victims fleeing the famine. No money is required. However, if you feel that the area is too small and want to increase the area, you will have to add money."
Lin Jiuyue glanced at the position of the village chief's finger.
The area is not large, so it might be too small for building a house.
However, what makes Lin Jiuyue satisfied is that there is a piece of land located near the back mountain. For a person like himself who has secrets, it is perfect for building a house.
"Village Chief, I want this piece of land, do you think you like it?"
After hearing this, the village chief looked at Lin Jiuyue in surprise.
"Miss Lin, please think carefully. This piece of land is close to the back mountain, and there will be wild animals and other things on the back mountain from time to time. It may not be a good thing for you two siblings."
Lin Jiuyue knew that the village chief had good intentions when he said this. smiled.
"Village Chief, we siblings don't like to join in the fun. This land is next to the back hill and there are few people living around it, so it is just right for us."
Among the several plots of land designated, they are all about the same area, but in the eyes of others, the plot Lin Jiuyue chose is undoubtedly the worst, because it is too far from the center of the village, there are not many people around, and the safety is relatively low. Some.
However, this is exactly why Lin Jiuyue likes it.
"Village Chief, I have made up my mind and want this piece of land."
The village chief frowned, a little worried, but seeing Lin Jiuyue's firm eyes, he didn't say anything more and just sighed.
"Now that you've decided, let's choose this one. However, I'll have to say something ugly first. Once this place is chosen, it can't be changed."
After the village chief finished speaking, he looked at Lin Jiuyue, hoping that Lin Jiuyue would think about it again.
"No changes, just this piece of land. However, the area of this land is a bit small. Village chief, I want to expand it a little more. Do you think it can be done?"
There is a homestead, but the area is really small.
If the yard is left, it is estimated that only a house of about 100 square meters can be built. Lin Jiuyue thought that since he was going to build a house, he should build it bigger to avoid the trouble of changing it again and again later.
On the way to escape the famine, I sold some things in the space and saved a lot of money. If it is not enough by then, wouldn't it be enough to sell some ginseng or other medicinal materials?
The village chief was a little surprised at first, but after looking at the master and servant Gu Chengyan who were following Lin Jiuyue, he suddenly felt it was reasonable.
It seems that these two siblings escaped from trouble, but they have noble people behind them to help them. It is reasonable to have some money to buy land and build a house.
Well, after I finish this matter and go home, I have to talk to my family and ask them to help the two siblings more. These two siblings are not ordinary people.
While they are in trouble now, I can lend a hand, and maybe there will be unexpected gains in the future.
"Okay, this land is not good land, and it doesn't produce much food. If you want to buy it, I can sell it to you cheaper."
Lin Jiuyue was happy when she heard this.
Although I am rich, I am still happy to be able to buy cheap land.
"Village chief, how much is an acre of this land?"
The village chief stretched out three fingers and gestured.
"Three taels of silver per acre?"
The village chief nodded.
"Three taels of silver per acre."
Lin Jiuyue took a breath of cold air.
If I remember correctly, when I was in Lijia Village, the low-grade land cost only two taels of silver per acre. I didn't expect that when I came to Shangbei Village, the land cost three taels of silver per acre.
Moreover, the fertility of this land is not comparable to that of low-grade fields!
Are you sure the village chief isn't lying to him?
"Village chief, is the land in our Shangbei Village so expensive? When I was in our village before, the low-grade land cost only two taels of silver per acre."
"Miss Lin, you also said that it was your old village."
"Let's go to Beicun, which is close to the capital. The price of land is indeed higher than that in other places. For these three taels of silver per acre, I'll give you the price of mountain land. If I give you the price of low-grade land, it will cost five taels. Two silver dollars an acre.”
After listening to this, Lin Jiuyue turned his attention to the housekeeper behind Gu Chengyan.
"Miss Lin, it's true. The land prices around the capital are indeed more expensive than other places. The village chief is right."
After hearing what the housekeeper said, Lin Jiuyue suddenly became wilted.
I originally thought that after I came to the capital, I would buy some land to plant. Then I would grow herbs, food, and other things, and give the things in my space a clear path. I didn't expect that the land here was so expensive.
With the two pieces of silver I had saved along the way, I probably wouldn’t be able to buy the land after building the house.
Thinking of this, Lin Jiuyue suddenly remembered. The land is more expensive than that in Lijia Village. So the materials and labor used to build the house are also more expensive than those in Lijia Village?
"Village Chief, I'm sorry. I just got here and I don't know much about the prices in this area. Don't blame me, Village Chief."
"It's okay, just wait until Miss Lin gets used to it."
Lin Jiuyue nodded and continued to ask.
"Village Chief, there is one more thing I want to ask, which is the price of materials for building a house and the price of labor in our neighborhood?"
When Lin Jiuyue asked about passing the land, his voice became less confident. I was afraid that the village chief would scare me by saying a 'sky-high price' again.
"Regardless of eating, it's usually thirty coppers a day, and twenty-five coppers a day. As for the price of materials for building a house, they all vary..."
The village chief told Lin Jiuyue the price, and then Lin Jiuyue realized that this capital was really different from Lijiacun. Prices and other things are higher than those in Lijiacun.
However, it is understandable.
After all, even in the 21st century, there is a gap in prices between first-tier cities and third- and fourth-tier cities.
Lin Jiuyue listened to the village chief talking about the prices here while thinking about whether he had enough money to build a house.
After some calculations, I found that if I wanted to build a slightly better house, it would cost about eighty taels of silver.
Fortunately, Lin Jiuyue had enough money.
"Miss Lin, do you still want to buy this land?"
The village chief talked for a while, thinking that the price frightened Lin Jiuyue, so he asked again.
"Buy it! If you need to repair it, fix it once and for all! Save yourself the trouble of having to change it again and again later!"
