The Way of the Peasant Mother-in-law

Chapter 365: Disappointed

Zhulan took out the drawings she had drawn and said, "I'll ask a craftsman to polish some characteristic wooden vases and bamboo baskets, how about my drawings?"

Zhou Shuren took a stack of drawing paper, "I have to admire, your paintings are getting better and better."

"thanks."

Zhou Shuren looked through it, "The wooden vases you designed are all good, Mrs. Zhou, your tea tasting banquet will be a great success." Zhulan took the blueprint, "I think so too, I have two more days to prepare. It can be done, when will you rest?"

Zhou Shuren sat down and said, "Four days will be the day of rest."

"It's really great." Zhou Shuren also felt that it was great, and the book he had been thinking about for a long time was about to arrive.

Early the next morning, Zhu Lan asked Butler Ding's eldest son, Guyu, to find a carpenter. There are many carpenters in Lizhou City. Those who have worked in Zhou Mansion like to work in Zhou Mansion. Not to mention three meals, money is also a day. Once settled, if you don't eat three meals in the house, you can take home the food for the three meals. Many people inquire about this rule if there is still life in the Zhou house.

Zhulan asked Butler Ding to look at the shop again. Zhulan has requirements for choosing a shop. The first shop must be large, and the second location must be good, even if it is more expensive.

The people of Lizhou City are stable, and they have more or less money in their hands. Once there is money, there is demand. In Lizhou City, there are a lot of merchants in one month, mainly cloth merchants and general merchandisers. , at least there will be no situation where people have money and can't buy soy sauce and vinegar.

There are many merchants, and Lizhou City is also somewhat dynamic. The prices of shops and houses have risen a lot, especially the houses. Some wealthy and visionary households in the nearby Zhoucheng came to Lizhou City to buy a lot of houses. As for the shops that wait and see, they are all waiting for more merchants to start.

Butler Ding is a celebrity in Lizhou City, and his recognition is very high. Butler Ding first chose a few suitable ones, and came back to report Zhulan. Zhulan took a carriage to see it. Several shops are on the main street, and the area is large. According to modern algorithms, one room is about 150 square meters, and several rooms are 120 square meters.

Zhulan chose two rooms of 120 square meters, because the two stores are connected together. In the future, the two stores will not only be able to take care of each other, but if there are businessmen who really need a large area, they can also get through, and they can earn more rent. .

The two shops are really cheap and only cost a total of 190 taels, including the cost of the teeth, etc., 200 taels came down.

Most of the shops in Lizhou City are now vacant, and Zhulan is not going to do business. Although many officials like to take shares with businesses, or put their business in the name of outsiders, Zhulan is not prepared to do so.

She keeps her shop and plans to rent it out next year. In fact, she prefers Zhuangzi and the land to the shop. The official position has a little advantage. As long as Zhou Shuren's official position is there, their family will not worry about selling how many Zhuangzi they produce. And also not afraid of businessmen pit you.

Zhulan bought two shops in Lizhou City purely for investment. She believes that as long as the autumn harvest is over, the housing prices of both houses and shops in Lizhou City will soar.

There is another advantage to the frontier state city. It is convenient for foreigners to trade. This dynasty has disabled foreigners, but it has not banned trade. As long as Lizhou city has items that attract foreign merchants, the tax revenue of Lizhou city can soar.

Apples are not only scarce in this dynasty, but even more scarce in foreigners. Especially in winter, dried vegetables in the environment of foreigners are good things, not to mention fruits.

Bamboo orchid never thought of transporting their apples to the north when they were digging the ice cellar. There are good buyers nearby, so why go far!

Time passed quickly, Zhulan's invitations were all delivered to the official residence of Lizhou City, and the preparations for Zhulan's family were all done.

The female family members are all invited to the garden. It is not particularly hot in June, so it is suitable to entertain guests outside.

The front yard is where Zhou Shuren entertains his colleagues.

In terms of food, the cakes are all made by Li’s kitchen, and the dishes and drinks are all pre-determined recipes. There is not much information about Zhulan, and the only source of information is Zhou Shuren. I really don’t know who likes what flavors of Zhulan. There was an inconsiderate situation, a table of twelve dishes, four spicy dishes, four salty dishes, four sweet and sour dishes, and four light dishes, and also bought several kinds of wine.

This time, as long as Zhulan of high rank is invited, there are a lot of high-rank officials in the state city, and the female family members all bring their daughters, plus the girl, luckily the Zhulan family has a large garden, otherwise it would feel crowded.

Among these wives, Zhulan paid attention to the lady who knew the same thing, Hua Yiren, and the lady who passed the sentence, Mrs. Miao.

I know Chen Chen's wife, forty-two years old, a southerner with a soft accent and a soft accent. She is a little thin. Well, the ladies here are a little thin. This is a vegetarian diet, plus maintenance. Even if the body is replenished for more than a month, it has not recovered much.

The lady who passed the sentence, Mrs. Miao, was thirty-five years old. She had a good appearance and was not short. She had a rhythm in her every move. She was a young lady from a large family, and Mrs. Miao was very good at taking care of her, so she looked like she was only about thirty years old.

Zhulan looked at the two of them~www.wuxiaspot.com~Hua and Miao also looked at Zhulan.

Mrs. Hua was surprised. She heard from the master that Lord Zhou was a farmer, so in her perception, Mrs. Zhou’s wife was a vulgar farmer’s wife. Even if Yang’s nephew became a general, it would not change his previous background, especially It was Zhou Yang who came to Lizhou City to either buy or farm land. She and Miao were contemptuous in their hearts.

Even if the husband said that the ability of Lord Zhou's city government is top-notch, it only represents Lord Zhou, and she still despises Zhou Yang.

She had been waiting for Yang's invitation to watch the fun, and by the way, she used Yang's vulgarity to suppress Lord Zhou. Whoever made Lord Zhou come to Lizhou City would have nothing to do with her husband.

I came here just to see a joke. I didn't expect that she was hit. Yang was obviously a few years younger than her, how could she seem to be ten years younger than her? Let's not talk about appearance, but what about tolerance?

Where did this come from the countryside? It looks like she came from an official family.

Mrs Miao calmed her mind and thought to herself, Mrs Yang and Mrs Hua should fight, she doesn't like both of them anyway, at least it seems that the Mrs Yang is not easy!

Zhulan and the others all sat down and smiled and said, "I've been in Lizhou City for more than a month, and I haven't had a chance to get to know you. Today, I specially held a tea tasting banquet, and I invite you to taste it."

Hearing the echoing voice, Mrs. Hua felt a little flustered in her heart. She used to hold her, put down the fan in her hand, and said with a smile, "I am a tea lover, and I have a tea garden at home, so I don't know what Zhou Yiren is holding. Tea? I think Mrs. Zhou must have a good tea, and I will have to taste it today." Zhulan kept smiling, looking for faults. She used to sympathize with Lord Chen, but now she doesn't. I hope Zhou Shuren will be more pitiful. book out.

Miao shi covered the corner of her mouth with a fan, which was right. Would she like to go with the mud? Forget it, it's still good to watch a play.
