My Entire Family's Gone Haywire Novel! - Chapter 301
301 Chapter 301 mountain village
As a person from ancient times and someone of high status, he understood the importance of a family more than Cai Xiaolian and Gu Nian.
If she wanted to give her daughter a stronger backing, she could only rely on her own family.
After three months of getting along, Gu shouxin had a better understanding of the Gu family. He was willing to contribute to the Gu family.
!!
Gu Xin’s act of secretly helping Gu Nian out this time made the time travel Trio very pleased.
Although they wanted to treat Gu Xin well when they first came and found out about what happened to her in her previous life, Gu Xin’s thoughtfulness made them feel that it was worth it. Gu Xin was worth it.
……
The next day, after their morning exercise, the family of four went to the old house to drive a carriage and set off to look for a human broker to look after the manor.
There were three villages in total, and they were not far from the village at the fork. After looking around for a day, Gu Nian chose Shanli village.
This mountain village was just like its name. Deep in the mountains, it was the village of a high scholar surnamed Feng in the prefecture. He had fallen ill and had found many doctors, but none of them could cure him. Later, a sorcerer suggested that he should recuperate in a quiet and sparsely populated place for a few years and even pointed out the most suitable location for him.
High scholar Feng had chosen to be in the deep mountains.
Now, high scholar Feng’s family was moving south, so the things here naturally had to be dealt with.
The reason why Gu Xin’s family valued this place was very simple. This place was the closest to their village, but there was no one around the manor.
It was good that there were no people around. When the time came, they would buy some people to guard the manor, and their family could plant more crops that could not be seen for the time being.
Gu shouxin also observed the surrounding terrain and combined it with the geographical record of Taoyuan County that he had seen before. He should be able to come here from the back mountain of the village at the crossroads.
The manor had 180 mu of land. There was a house in it, which was about three mu. The rest was all land. After high scholar Feng recovered and left, he would regularly send people here to take care of it. Therefore, there was no wasteland in the manor, but there were no crops in the first month of the lunar year.
The original price was 1800 taels, but the Gu family didn’t want to go to the Yamen to sign the contract recently, so they spent 50 taels to get the broker to handle this matter.
The broker had his own connections in the Yamen, and he didn’t necessarily need to get the approval of the county Magistrate to do the deed.
After making his decision, Gu shouxin paid a deposit of one thousand taels. When he got the land deed, he would pay the remaining eight hundred and fifty taels.
Gu Nian had a rough idea of the manor after walking around it once. He drew a rough picture of the manor when he returned.
“Niannian, list all the things you need. I’ll design them for you, and then let your Grandpa yang and fourth uncle type them out.” Cai Xiaolian said after looking at the rough terrain.
“Mother, we still need to build houses. This Manor is too big. We can live in the house built by high scholar Feng when we go there, but the people who buy it will need a house. It’s best if we buy a family of a few, not one. “In this area, I’ll draw it to build a house.” Gu Nian explained his plan to Cai Xiaolian one by one.
“Hmm, you decide. By the way, after we buy them, why don’t we build a small workshop and choose a few from the buyers to make more washing and protection sets? Your father said that we should be able to get to the village from the back mountain. At that time, it will be more convenient for us to separate.” Cai Xiaolian nodded.
“Build an extra row of houses.” At this moment, Gu shouxin and Gu shouxin came in.
