The Only Favorite Ugly Husband

Chapter 54 Jiang Zhen Got Rich

"Jiang Zhen, what do you want this place for?" Zhao Fugui was a little puzzled. Although this place can dig some bamboo shoots and grow some wild rice stems to sell for money, it is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, it may not even be sold for a tael of silver a year. Such a place , What are you buying it for?

"I think this place is very good, it can be used to raise ducks." Jiang Zhen said.

He didn't want Zhao Jinge to be a long-term worker for others, nor did he want Zhao Fugui to be a part-time worker for others, so he found some things to do for them, and raising chickens and ducks was pretty good. There will be a shortage of eggs and duck eggs to eat.

Zhao Fugui felt that it would take such a large piece of land to raise some chickens and ducks, but he thought that it was Jiang Zhen's money, so he finally stopped talking.

After discussing with Jiang Ping about buying the Jiang family's paddy field and that piece of land, they didn't have to go to the dental shop in the county to see if there was any other land. Zhao Fugui and Zhao Liushi looked at each other and refused to go to the county.

Jiang Zhen and Brother Zhao Jing are about to get married, and it is also possible to go to the county town for a visit. Their families are better off, and they will take their future daughter-in-law to the county town to buy something they want before they get married.

And at this time... what are the two of them going to do next?

Therefore, for this trip to the county seat, only Zhao Jinge and Jiang Zhen went. Before leaving, Jiang Zhen brought some porcelain.

There are porcelain shops in the county town, and they mainly sell cheap bowls and dishes. It’s like this. When people go to buy bowls, they will ask the people in the shop to engrave marks on the bowls.

People at this time have to borrow tables, chairs, dishes and dishes from others for weddings. After all, they must be returned. After all, this is an important property of many families, so it must be marked.

Jiang Zhen walked around the shop first, asked about the price, then took out the porcelain he brought to the shopkeeper, and asked him what price he was willing to pay.

"This porcelain is good." The shopkeeper said immediately when he saw the porcelain Jiang Zhen took out.

"Yes, the purchase price is not cheap." Jiang Zhen said.

"How much do you have? If the price is right, I'll take it all." The shopkeeper said.

"I have a ship with a lot of quantity. As for the price... the shopkeeper, how about this? You help me contact the buyer, negotiate a good price, and then I take the goods to sell, and the selling price is [-]% off. "Jiang Zhen didn't know the market of porcelain, and he would lose money if he sold it to the shopkeeper rashly, so he just thought of such a way.

If the shopkeeper wants to get more commission, he will definitely negotiate a higher price.

"This..." The shopkeeper hadn't sold anything like this before, so he was a little hesitant.

"Boss, you've earned [-]% for nothing. Of course, don't fool me. I just do this to get a good price. If the price is not right, then I won't sell it." Jiang Zhen said again.

The shopkeeper thought about it, and immediately agreed to Jiang Zhen's request.

Although the porcelain that Jiang Zhen brought was not particularly expensive, it was really good. At least they were rare here. He took it to show the mistresses of several big families in the county, and it would definitely sell for a good price.

The shopkeeper agreed, and Jiang Zhen left the samples, and then told the shopkeeper the quantity of each dish in his hand, and also left his address.

After finishing this task and looking at the sky, Jiang Zhen wanted to take Zhao Jinge to a restaurant in the county town for dinner.

There is only one big restaurant in this county, and the food there is not cheap. Jiang Zhengang proposed to go, but was rejected by Brother Zhao Jing: "I don't want to eat there, let's eat wontons."

"Wonton?" Jiang Zhen was taken aback: "Brother Jin, you don't have to save me money."

"I really like eating wontons. When I was a child, my father brought me to the county town and would buy me a bowl of wontons every time." Zhao Jinge said.

Jiang Zhen knew that Zhao Jinge mainly wanted to save some money, but he didn't refuse, and took Zhao Jinge to the wonton stand.

There are two types of wontons. One is large wontons, which have thick skin and more meat, and the price is expensive. A bowl costs six yuan, and a bowl contains ten wontons. The other is small wontons.The skin of small wontons is very thin, and the meat inside is only the size of mung beans. A bowl of [-] or [-] wontons costs only two yuan, and this kind of wonton usually needs to be served with some big pancake buns to fill you up.

Brother Zhao Jin ordered two bowls of small wontons, and Jiang Zhen ordered ten more meat buns—anyway, he could take them home if he couldn't finish them.

A bowl of small wontons cost two cents, and fist-sized meat buns cost three cents each. Jiang Zhen was full after eating three meat buns and a bowl of wontons. Brother Zhao Jing also ate so much, so they used the remaining four buns. Oil paper wrapped up.

It was Jiang Zhen who brought Brother Zhao Jing to the county town because he wanted to buy something for Brother Zhao Jing, but Brother Zhao Jing didn't want anything. After he had done shopping in Fucheng, he couldn't think of anything else to buy. In the end, he only went to cut two catties of meat and bought another A leaf of pork liver.

After buying it, seeing that the pig's trotters were cheap, Jiang Zhen bought two more pig's trotters and asked the butcher to chop them into pieces.

"Brother Zhao Jin?" A voice suddenly sounded, and Brother Zhao Jin, who was standing next to Jiang Zhen, turned his head when he heard the words, and saw a woman in her thirties standing not far away.

"Sister." Brother Zhao Jin called out, looking at the woman opposite.

"I didn't expect to see you here... Do you want to cut the meat and have no money? Shall I lend you some?" Liu Pandi looked at Zhao Jinge and asked.

"No need." Brother Zhao Jin refused.

"Don't refuse, I know your family is having a hard time. Alas, you are really old. You still don't find a husband's family, and you work outside all day in front of your face..." Liu Pandi said while She looked at Brother Zhao Jin with some complacency, but this careful look made her frown slightly.

This Liu Pandi is the eldest daughter of Zhao Jinge's uncle's family.She is the same age as Zhao Jinge. When she was a child, she was very jealous of Zhao Jingge, who was loved by her parents. When she grew up, she married well in the county town, but Zhao Jinge couldn't get married. She became more and more respectful in front of Zhao Jinge. Feel superior.

What makes her more regretful is that Zhao Liu's relationship with her natal family has basically been cut off, and Zhao Jinge was sent to order casually during the New Year, so she couldn't find a chance to let Zhao Jinge see how well she was doing.

Seeing Brother Zhao Jin today, she was a little happy at first, but soon felt that something was wrong. Brother Zhao Jin's outfit today... looks very energetic, and there is even a silver hairpin on his head.

"Brother Zhao Jin, you actually wore a silver hairpin! Auntie finally helped you find your in-law's family?" Liu Pandi asked again, the hairpin couldn't be afforded by the Zhao family. Could this Zhao Jinge be able to marry? "Are you filling in a house for others or are you married to an old man? You are so old, and the family is willing to give you a silver hairpin. It must be because of the poor conditions?"

Liu Pandi spoke as if she was guessing, but in fact she was very certain. She thought that Brother Zhao Jin might marry a fool and lunatic. If not, why would the family buy hairpins for Brother Zhao Jin?

Brother Zhao Jin didn't have much contact with this cousin. In fact, he didn't realize that this cousin was malicious towards him at first, but now he felt something was wrong, and he couldn't help frowning.

"Brother Jin, I've cut the meat, what else do you want? Let's go buy it." Jiang Zhen smiled and looked at Liu Pandi again: "Who is this old woman? Do you know her?"

"This is my cousin." Zhao Jinge said.

"Oh, so it's my cousin, I thought it was my cousin." Jiang Zhen sneered.

Liu Pandi was almost pissed off. Her husband's family's conditions are really good, and she can show it off, but she has a very powerful mother-in-law. Treated so harshly that she looked old.

But even so, she is only one year older than Brother Zhao Jin, so how did she become an aunt?

Liu Pandi wanted to say something, but Jiang Zhen ignored Liu Pandi and dragged Zhao Jinge away.

Looking at Zhao Jinge's back, Liu Pandi couldn't help frowning, so can Zhao Jinge really get married?No way?

She must go back and ask!

Jiang Zhen and Zhao Jinge didn't stay in the county for much time, and they went back early. At this time, the village chief Jiang Ping went to Jiang's house and talked about someone wanting to buy land.

Jiang Ping was a little worried at first, afraid that the Jiang family would ask who wanted to buy the land, but unexpectedly, the Jiang family did not ask.

"Someone wants to buy it? What's the price?" Mrs. Jiang asked.

"20 taels and one mu of land, your land is not the best, and there are no crops in the land, so you can't sell it no matter how expensive it is." Jiang Ping said.

Mrs. Jiang hesitated immediately, but Butcher Jiang smoked in silence.

"Do you really want to sell the land? It will be difficult to buy it back after selling the land..." Jiang Ping persuaded, the land is their life for the country people!Unless Zhao Liushi is sick and waiting for life-saving money, or He Qiusheng owes gambling debts and does not want to be cut off, otherwise basically no one will sell the land.

Jiang's family didn't have much land before, only four or five acres of paddy fields plus a few acres of dry land. It took a lot of effort for the butcher Jiang to save up his current family business.

Who doesn't envy the Jiang family to have fifteen acres of paddy fields, but they didn't expect that they would sell four acres in one go.

"Sell, we want to sell." Jiang Butcher said affirmatively.He was so upset that he didn't even ask who was going to buy it.

There are several reasons for the Jiang family to sell the land.

One of the reasons is that they cannot grow.

It is very troublesome to grow rice. First, you have to turn over the ground repeatedly, then you have to raise seedlings and transplant them, and then you have to keep weeding... In the past, Boss Jiang and Butcher Jiang went to the fields together. It can be planted, but now, they can't finish it.

Of course, if you can’t finish planting, you can actually rent it out to others. Some people in the village have little land, and they wish someone could rent land for them to plant, but...Jiang Chengxiang and Jiang Chengcai both asked them for money.

The cause of the incident was that Jiang Chengxiang found an errand in the county seat, but he needed 20 taels of silver to clear it, so he came home to get the silver.

Butcher Jiang hoped that he could find a good job, so he agreed to find a way for him, and gave him 20 taels of silver. As a result, Jiang Chengcai overheard and was dissatisfied immediately.

Jiang Chengcai stopped going to private school after two years, but Jiang Chengxiang studied for six or seven years. The Jiang butchers and his wife spent much more money on Jiang Chengxiang than on Jiang Chengcai. took the money.

Jiang Chengcai thought, why are they sons, Jiang Tuhu and his wife gave Jiang Chengxiang so much money to study, and gave him money to find a job, but not to himself?

He immediately asked his parents for 40 taels of silver, saying that he would use it for business.

Both Jiang Chengcai and Jiang Chengxiang were desperately asking for money. At this time, someone came to collect debts.

Don't look at Jiang Tuhu and his wife's mistreatment of Boss Jiang, they loved Jiang Chengcai and Jiang Chengxiang to the bottom of their hearts. In the end, the couple discussed and decided to sell the land.

After selling the land, Jiang Chengxiang was given 20 taels to clear up the relationship, and Jiang Chengcai was given 40 taels to do business, and the rest was used to pay off the debt.

Mrs. Jiang has always been full of confidence in Jiang Chengcai's son. Even though this son is actually lazy by nature, she firmly believes that he will be able to do business and make a lot of money.

Mrs. Jiang and Butcher Jiang agreed to sell the land, so Jiang Ping went to Zhao's house again.

Jiang Ping was trustworthy. With Jiang Zhen around, Zhao Fugui was not afraid that he would fool his family, so he simply gave Jiang Ping the money and asked Jiang Ping to help him buy the land.

Jiang Ping has always been a kind person, and he didn't refuse. Even the [-] acres of bamboo forest helped Jiang's family to buy it.

The next day, Jiang Zhen got the title deed.

He took a look at it and gave the land deed to Brother Zhao Jing. At the same time, the news that the Zhao family actually bought the land was also spread in Hexi Village.

No, it should not be said that the Zhao family bought the land, but Jiang Zhen bought the land.

When Jiang Zhen left the Jiang family, he only had 40 taels of silver in his hands, but now he bought four acres of paddy fields alone!

Brother Zhao Jin married him, among other things, he would definitely not have to go hungry in the future!

The people in Hexi Village used to be afraid of Jiang Zhen, but when they went to see Jiang Zhen now, they found that Jiang Zhen was actually nothing to be afraid of.

What's more, he is very kind to Brother Zhao Jin... Haven't you seen that Brother Zhao Jin is wearing new clothes now?The Zhao family also eats meat every day.

Mrs. Zhao Liu used to be skinny, but now she not only has a ruddy face, but also has rouge on her face!

For a while, people envied the Zhao family, and while they envied the Zhao family, they would inevitably mention the Jiang family and sympathize with it.

Jiang Zhen used to work hard when he was in the Jiang family, and he grasped the work in the field, which made the life of the Jiang family very good, but the Jiang family wanted to find fault with him and drove him out.

Now it's all right, Jiang Zhen went to Zhao's house, so the life of Jiang's family became difficult, but Zhao's family prospered.

In the past, the villagers were afraid of Jiang Zhen, and beating Jiang Zhen as a yamen servant might have a lot to do with them. Now they find that Jiang Zhen doesn't seem to be causing trouble to the village, so they are not so afraid.

Of course, there is still awe, and no one dares to offend him.

Many people came to the Zhao family to inquire about the news. Mrs. Zhao Liu raised her head and proudly praised Jiang Zhen: "I bought the land yesterday, and my brother Jin was thinking about planting the land, but Jiang Zhen refused to let him go, saying We are about to get married, so how can we do such rough work? So this year, our family can only grow rice for one season."

"Before, my rich family said that pork head meat was delicious. Today, Jiang Zhen went to the county to deliver porcelain, and he brought back a pig's head...Really, such a big pig's head, how can so few people in our family eat it?"

"My rouge was also given by him. He gave me a box of rouge at the beginning, and recently gave me a box of eyebrow powder."

"My brother Jin is doing nothing at home all day now. I see that if this continues, he will be lazy."

Jiang Zhen heard it by accident, and was immediately speechless.

Zhao Liushi praised him, and praised him too much...

Jiang Zhen did not let Brother Zhao Jin go to farm, but Brother Zhao Jin was never idle at all. Not only did he cook the meals at home, but he also went to the river to touch snails every day, and then raised them in the pond on the other side of the bamboo forest. I will feed the ducks later.

If Jiang Zhen hadn't stopped him, he would have dug out all the silt in the pond and filled it into the ground beside the pond to create a fertile land for growing crops.

However, it doesn't feel bad to be praised, so Jiang Zhen went to work with a smile.

Zhao Liu's face is full of spring breeze every day, and the whole person seems to be ten years younger, while the Jiang family is the opposite.

Their land was actually bought by Jiang Zhen, this... this...

Old Mrs. Jiang was so angry that her heart ached and she kept swearing.

Butcher Jiang was fine at first, thinking that his land would be in the hands of his own family, and no outsiders would benefit from it, but soon he heard that Jiang Zhen wanted to marry into the Zhao family...

After hearing about this, he trembled with anger.

His family's land is going to belong to the Zhao family!

"Father and mother, don't worry, if Jiang Zhen can make money to buy land, so can I." Jiang Chengcai said to his parents: "At the beginning, Jiang Zhen took 40 taels of silver to do business, and he turned around and made so much... I'm sure I can do it too." !"

"Yes, Chengcai, you can do it too!" Mrs. Jiang said to Jiang Chengcai, finally feeling better again.

They were about to get married, but Jiang Zhen was still busy. Together with Wang Haisheng, he went to the bamboo forest he had just bought, cut bamboo to make fences, and tried to build chicken coops and duck coops.

Ducks are not afraid of the rain. The duck coop can be simple, but the chicken coop must be well built... This project is not small. Jiang Zhen thought it would be better to do it after getting married. Now the main thing to do is to level the land.

Now it's only the fourth month of the lunar calendar, and the weather is already scorching hot. Jiang Zhen couldn't help but take off his clothes and go bare-chested after working for a while.

It is very common for men to be shirtless, not to mention that there are usually no one here.

"Who?" Jiang Zhen was thinking that no one would come here, when he heard a rustling sound behind him, he turned his head away.

"It's...it's me." He Qiusheng got out of the bushes.

After not seeing him for a few days, He Qiusheng looked haggard a lot. He was a little afraid to look at the shirtless Jiang Zhen, and lowered his head.

"What's the matter?" Jiang Zhen frowned slightly, and put on his clothes again.

"I..." He Qiusheng gritted his teeth, unable to speak.

He Qiusheng's coming here was forced by his parents.

He hadn't been wronged much when he was a child. Although Jiang Zhen saved him before and made him have a good impression of Jiang Zhen, but Jiang Zhen ignored him, so he was not willing to put a hot face on a cold ass, but his Parents don't think so.

Although Jiang Zhen beat Liu Heitou away, when Liu Heitou said he wanted the He family to repay the debt, he didn't help solve the matter, that is to say...then Liu Heitou would come to the He family to ask for He's father The silver owed!

Father He has been restless these days.

Although he owed money before, but with He Qiusheng around, even if he didn't pay the money, he could still send He Qiusheng to pay off the debt, but now that Jiang Zhen is in his early days, Liu Heitou doesn't want He Qiusheng anymore, but let him pay off the debt... Where can he come out?

Father He was afraid that Liu Heitou would come to trouble him, so he asked He Qiusheng to go to Jiang Zhen and ask Jiang Zhen to help.

Jiang Zhen can beat that Liu Heitou, so Liu Heitou should not ask him for debts, shouldn't it?

You know, after he borrowed Liu Heitou's money, he gambled with Liu Heitou in Liujia Village and lost all his money, and most of the people who gambled with him were from Liu Heitou's people, that is to say... the 30 taels of silver actually came again. Liu Heitou went in his hands.

As long as Jiang Zhen talks about it, his debt will definitely be cleared!

Father He had such an idea, but he didn't dare to go to Jiang Zhen himself, so he let He Qiusheng go.After learning that Jiang Zhen bought the land and had money in hand, He Qiusheng wanted to hold onto Jiang Zhen. It was best to squeeze out that brother Zhao Jin and marry Jiang Zhen, so that their family would not have to worry about anything. up.

He Qiusheng felt extremely embarrassed, but He's mother also agreed.

He Qiusheng's mother is a very weak and kind woman. She is very kind to her three children. At the same time, she is also very kind to her husband, who has always been her husband.

Now her husband got into trouble with Liu Heitou, and their family couldn't solve the matter, so she pinned her hopes on He Qiusheng and asked him to beg Jiang Zhen.

Since Jiang Zhen saved He Qiusheng, he always had a good impression of He Qiusheng. He married Zhao Jinge probably because Zhao Jinge saved him... Mother He thought it would be useful for He Qiusheng to ask.

However, Mother He didn't let He Qiusheng squeeze Brother Zhao Jin out. She thought it was better to be a junior to Jiang Zhen than to be a junior to Liu Heitou. At least Jiang Zhen wouldn't torture his concubine to death.

So, she asked He Qiusheng to lower his posture, and Jiang Zhen and Zhao Jin all went to beg him.

He Qiusheng could refuse his father, but he couldn't refuse his mother's begging, so he finally found him.
