Return of the Swallow

"There is so much?" Qin Yining said in surprise, "I remember that although we used a lot of money back then, what we got was really unexpected."

"Yeah, when we bought the fields, the price was less than 30% of the usual price. No one could have imagined that when Da Zhou took over the Dayan Dynasty, it would be so peaceful, there was no burning, killing and looting, and there was no massacre that everyone feared before. Prince Zhongshun knew each other, and he was able to analyze it later, but the people didn't know."

Speaking of this, shopkeeper Zhong Da couldn't help laughing: "It's not just our land that has made a fortune, the stores we mortgaged have been sold to the prince, and the prince must have made a fortune now."

Hearing this, Qin Yining nodded thoughtfully.

She feels a little guilty now, and feels that she has made a fortune in the country and is too unkind to the people.

Seeing Qin Yining's expression, the shopkeeper Zhong Da guessed what she was thinking, and couldn't help sighing: "Master, you are too kind. In that situation, everyone was starving, and the country was ruined and the family was destroyed. Right in front of you. Isn't your original intention of buying the land so that the common people can escape with some money?"

"Having said that, their land is sold at a bargain. I always feel like I'm taking advantage of them."

"No, it's not that the owner forced them to sell the house and the land, but they voluntarily sold it at a low price in order to escape. In that case, if the owner didn't buy their land, they might not earn a penny and leave the house. The land will escape, and after Da Zhou takes over, the unowned land will also be confiscated, so when they return to their hometown, where will there be land to grow? The land is in our hands, we can still hire them and give them a job. "

Qin Yining blinked and had to admit that what the shopkeeper Zhong Da said was right.

The shopkeeper Zhong Da said again: "Most of the people who have not starved to death have returned to the capital now. Those who have no houses and no land have no livelihood. I have hired many people to farm for us, which can be considered a way of life for them."

Qin Yining sighed and then smiled open-mindedly: "It's all over, it's useless to think about it now, why don't we only take 70% of the rent this year and leave 30% to them, so that everyone can rest and recuperate."

The shopkeeper Zhong Da said in astonishment: "The owner, 30% of each household is not a small sum!"

"I know." Qin Yining sighed, "The money in the world can't be earned, no matter how much money I want, isn't it just a number in my hand? This 30% of the rent per household is not worth it to me. Shaking the fundamentals can lighten a lot of burdens for everyone. After all, I used to be a native of Dayan, so let me do my part for the people."

Shopkeeper Zhong Da looked at Qin Yining,

Fang said for a long time, "The owner is Gao Yi, and the old man admires him." He got up and gave Qin Yining a salute.

"Where, no matter what I do, you must contribute to this." Qin Yining got up and returned the salute, and said, "Actually, I still have a place in the capital where I need money."

"Master, please tell me." The shopkeeper Zhong Da sat upright.

Qin Yining said with a smile: "The shopkeeper must have heard something about what happened on the road when we came here. My old lady and the others lost all the money they brought. Although my third uncle is in business, he is still on the road. It's far away, and the income from his business is not too big."

"So, I want to buy a house in private, pass by someone who seems to have nothing to do with me on the surface, and after my father returns to Beijing, after going through a resale, I won't let the family lose their land. I have asked the prince to help me find a few places for this house, but too many things have happened in recent days, and I haven't had time to choose."

"Don't worry, boss, I'll help you with this matter." The shopkeeper Zhong Da was silent for a while before he said, "There are rumors outside that you and the prince..."

"Don't worry. My lord and I are the same as before --\u003e\u003e

In this way, some things are unavoidable, and you can trust the prince in the future. "

Only then can shopkeeper Zhong Da's hanging heart be put down, and he let out a long sigh and said, "That's good, that's good!"

He watched Qin Yining and Pang Xiao gradually come together with his own eyes. These young people are really a loving match. It would be too sad if they could only be separated due to some reasons in reality.

The two talked for a while, and then a servant girl came and said that the meal was ready.

Qin Yining had a meal with the Zhong family, Lu Dehan, and Liu Jiu'er. After the meal, they chatted a few times, and explained that the shopkeeper Zhong Da could go to the palace to find Xie Yue or Xu Weizhi on his own, and pass them a message to find Pang Xiao. Just returned to the guest house.

The next day, shopkeeper Zhong Da went to the palace.

Pang Xiao introduced Xie Yue and Xu Weizhi to shopkeeper Zhong Da.

"This big shopkeeper Zhong Yucheng is from Sister Yi."

Both Xie Yue and Xu Weizhi saluted the shopkeeper Zhong Da politely and were extremely cautious.

Shopkeeper Zhong Da learned from Qin Yining that these two were the most trusted advisers around Pang Xiao. Looking at their attitude towards him, he knew that Qin Yining's status in the eyes of these two people was not low.

The shopkeeper Zhong Da also politely returned the salute.

In the next few days, shopkeeper Zhong Da and Xie Yue went out to see the house together. Among the three houses, he chose a second-class house in the east of the city, and bought the house in the name of Lu Dehan. Down.

Qin Yining used the excuse to buy silk thread and went to the house to see it once. I felt that the location of the house was good, and I could move in after roughly repairing it, so I asked the craftsmen to tidy up the interior first, and then tidy up the outside after the new year began.

As time passed, Qin Huaiyuan, Sun Shi and Cao Yuqing still had no news.

Qin Yining also became more and more anxious.

She interfered with the draft, and she wondered whether the person who kidnapped her father would be detrimental to her father.

And Dayan's five subordinate teams have now arrived in the capital safely.

The State Guest House and the surrounding houses were temporarily housed by the surrendered ministers and family members of the Yan Dynasty, and they were full of real people.

But Li Qitian also only asked the people from the Ministry of Rites to treat these people well. If you want to buy a house, you can buy it. If you don't buy a house, you can squeeze in the guesthouse if you don't think the land is too narrow. Of course, if you don't It is also possible to find the inn by yourself if you are short of money.

With these people in the capital, even the business of restaurants and inns has improved.

But Li Qitian did not immediately reward the official position. Everyone stared and waited.

After the young age, Qin Yining was really too worried about Qin Huaiyuan, the corners of his mouth were blistered, mouth sores were full, and it hurt to drink a sip of water.

Pang Xiao took advantage of no one in the middle of the night, turned the window to see Qin Yining, saw her leaning on her cheeks and staring at the silk lamp in a daze, with a thin face and a pointy chin, she couldn't help but feel distressed: "How do you do it? Like this? Haven't you eaten these days?"

Qin Yining was startled by the sudden sound, raised his eyes and glared at him, took off the lampshade and blew out the lamp, so as not to be seen by people outside, so he whispered:

"I can't eat these days. I'm always worried about my father and mother. I had a nightmare yesterday that they were being ripped off by kidnappers. I woke up scared and couldn't sleep again."

Hearing this, Pang Xiao sighed and said, "Don't worry, my father-in-law must be fine, and I can also guess that he is definitely not in the hands of some kidnappers. The reason why he didn't come back should be because he did it on purpose."
