Wei and Jin cooks

The contract was very specific. It not only limited him to complete the project within five years, but also required regulations. However, unlike previous perceptions, she only required minimum regulations and no upper limit.

Chang Ning noticed it. Although he didn't know Zhao Hanzhang's intention, he didn't ask. Instead, he handed it over to the county government according to the contract issued by the inner court, and the county government copied it to the person who wanted to buy the land.

Yes, the contents of the contract are the same, except for the price.

Zhao Erlang didn't think too much about that. As soon as he got the receipt and contract, he immediately sent someone to ask Zhao Hu, "Let the seventh uncle bring the money conveniently, so don't make another trip in vain."

The officer took the order and left.

Zhao Zheng on the side was about to say something but hesitated, "The Ministry of Household Affairs allocated the Wang family's land."

Zhao Erlang: "Didn't we know this early on? My sister won't let me sell it to my seventh uncle."

Zhao Zheng: "...I mean, the Ministry of Revenue does not agree with everything. My grandfather may not want to just trade around. If you ask him to bring money, he may be unhappy."

"If he doesn't want it, I'll sell it to someone else," Zhao Erlang said, "My sister is waiting for the money to be used urgently."

Zhao Zheng looked at him silently.

How to tell him that everyone is waiting and watching, and his grandfather is the only one willing to spend a large amount of cash to buy land? This was achieved even after the general made some concessions.

Looking at Zhao Erlang's resolute profile, Zhao Zheng endured it silently. That's all. Cousin Yong didn't know how to turn around. He didn't know what would happen if he told him.

Because Zhao Zheng didn't say anything, Zhao Erlang faced Zhao Hu confidently and proudly. In his heart, because Sister A was so powerful and gave so many rules, Zhao Hu must have begged Zhao Hanzhang to sell the land to him.

So he directly filled in the highest price given by the Ministry of Accounts on the four contracts.

The price set by the Ministry of Revenue was not high, and even the highest price was within Zhao Hu's acceptance range. Because Zhao Erlang was too confident and directly filled in the price, giving Zhao Hu the illusion that he could no longer bargain, so He accepted the contract without counteroffering, but asked, "Where is another piece of land?"

"The price of the land has not yet been determined, so we can't sign the contract yet." This reason was what Zhao Zheng was thinking.

Zhao Hu glanced at the stupid Zhao Erlang and had no doubts. He frowned and signed all four contracts, "Urge the accounts department to set the price quickly. If you are not sure, just call out a price first. If I can buy it, I will make a decision. If I can't buy it, I'll just make a counter-offer. It's always dragging on like this and it wastes my time."

Zhao Erlang: "Seventh Uncle, you bought four pieces of land at once and built houses on them. Do you have enough labor?"

"It's not enough. Why, do you want to lend me your servant?"

Zhao Erlang shook his head, "I have few servants, and most of them are soldiers, but no one can lend it to you. But I'm curious, you don't have enough manpower, why did you buy so much land at once? The Wang family's land is too big. My sister said that such a good piece of land requires a good house to be built, and it probably won’t be completed within three or four years, and that’s if there is no shortage of money.”

Zhao Erlang hesitated for a moment and then asked: "Seventh Uncle, are you rich? If I borrow money from you, will you borrow it?"

Zhao Hu said without thinking: "I won't borrow it!"

After speaking, he saw his grandson standing aside. He paused and said in a gentle tone: "Erlang, it's not that my uncle doesn't love you, but it's because you haven't started a family, so I won't lend you money."

Zhao Erlang was stunned for a while, "What does this have to do with starting a family?"

"Of course it does matter. You have a family and a career. Only when you have a family can you keep your mind calm and spend money appropriately," Zhao Hu said: "Otherwise, if you are just a bareheaded person who spends too much money without restraint, when will I get it back after I lend you the money?"

"You have to remember that if someone borrows money from you in the future, you must think about whether he can pay it back to you. Only when you are sure that he can and will pay it back can you lend him money. Otherwise, it is what you need to save your life. I just leak it to others casually, not asking for affection, but asking not to make enemies. There is no need for you to think about paying back this kind of money."

After saying that, he turned to Zhao Zheng and said: "Don't imitate your father. In this world, only money and power can calm people's hearts. Your father neither admires power nor grasps money. His fingers are as loose as a funnel." , I don’t trust leaving my family property to him, I will give it all to you in the future.”

Zhao Zheng was not very happy. He said seriously: "How can Zheng inherit the family business over his father?"

"It's okay if I say yes," Zhao Hu said with a worried look on his face, "I'm afraid that if I hand over the family property to your father, you and your son will be begging for food in the future. By then, I will really die with my eyes open."

Zhao Zheng opened his mouth, unable to say anything to refute.

However, Zhao Erlang rolled his eyes and said to Zhao Hu: "Seventh Uncle, I think Uncle Cheng is very good. You should give the family property to Uncle Cheng."

"Go, go, do you know how much money I have? Do you know what money is? Children should stop getting involved in adults' affairs."

Zhao Erlang's eyes widened, "Seventh Uncle, you are swearing!"

Zhao Hu was startled. He didn't expect this fool to hear it, but he would not admit it. "Nonsense, why did I scold you? Which word did I scold you for?"

Zhao Erlang said angrily: "You are scolding me. You are scolding me with every word and even with your eyes. Don't think I don't know that you are scolding me as a fool in your heart. I have seen it a lot."

Zhao Zheng quickly stopped between the two to persuade them, "County Lord, don't you still want to meet the resettled immigrants? It's time to issue the cut-off letter, otherwise you won't be able to leave in time today."

Zhao Erlang snorted unhappily and angrily went to count the money Zhao Hu had brought.

The money Zhao Hu brought was placed in a sack in the yard of the county government office. When he opened it and poured it out, the clear and sweet sound of money could be heard.

Zhao Erlang's face looked better. He picked up a bunch and looked at it. He proudly raised his chin to Zhao Hu and said, "Seventh uncle, I can not only count money, but I can also weigh money."

He said to his left and right: "Go and get a scale. How long will it take to count each coin? The money made by the imperial court has a fixed weight. Don't you know how much it is just by weighing it?"

Zhao Zheng's forehead jumped, he lowered his eyes and took two steps to the side, away from Zhao Hu.

Sure enough, as soon as he took a step, Zhao Hu was already furious and scolded Zhao Erlang, "Who does business like this? Don't you know that copper coins will be lost when they circulate? I don't know how many people these coins have passed through. , and jingling in and out, there is always wear and tear, and every weighing takes up two more copper coins from me, how much money have you made from me for nothing?"

Zhao Erlang hummed: "When there is a lot of money, this is how the army calculates military pay and food and grass money. Don't fool me. I'm not stupid. I'm very smart. No matter how much money is lost in a basket, it won't make much more." Besides, I haven't asked anyone to untie the money string yet. Doesn't the money string count as weight?"

Zhao Hu almost spit on his face: "You have to calculate the weight of such a light rope. Why don't you grab it?"
