Redemption of Medium Land

The ox cart stopped outside the city, and everyone came down one after another. Xiao Jing ting and Xu Muan rented a stall in the market in the city.

People came and went in the market, but Xiao Jing ting and Xu Muan were a little shy, Xiao fan thought it was time for him to show his skills and shouted at the top of his voice, "Grapes, fresh grapes!"

Xiao fan was so brave that Xiao Jing ting who was self-conscious immediately got impressed by Xiao fan differently.

Seeing Xiao Jing ting's appreciation of Xiao fan, Xiao dong was envious and anxious, but he couldn't shout out like Xiao fan. He was angry with himself in his heart, so he pulled a long face, which Xiao Jing ting thought funny.

Xiao fan looked lovely so several women came to ask about the price. When they heard that a cluster of grapes cost 250 coppers, they immediately scattered.

Xiao Jing ting was not annoyed and cut open few grapes, inviting people to taste them, which finally helped them promote the sales.

However, the impression that the grapes were not delicious was deeply rooted in people's mind. The price was also high, so Xiao Jing ting sold only 30 strings of grapes for the whole morning. Xiao Jing ting was unwilling to reduce the price. But people who were willing to accept this price wouldn't hang out in this low-grade market, so the situation was somewhat in a stalemate.

Looking at the depressed Xiao Jing ting, Xu Muan said, "I have a suggestion."

Xiao Jing ting nodded his head and said, "Just say i."

"I have some friendship with Zhou Ji, the owner of the Yuehe Restaurant. When he opens a restaurant, he needs to prepare a lot of spiritual fruits every day so we can sell grapes to him. He should be able to sell a lot. However, I'm afraid the price will need to be lower." Xu Muan said carefully.

In the past, Xiao Jing ting was headstrong and never listened to Xu Muan and would often scold Xu Muan for meddling in his business and sometimes even beat him. Over time, Xu Muan seldom expressed his opinions.

Xiao Jing ting nodded and his eyes lit up as he said lightly, "If he can buy most of the grapes, then the price can be lower." The grapes would go bad after they had been kept for long and many of them would not be sold if they continued like this.

Hearing Xiao Jing ting agree with him, Xu Muan couldn't help but feel a little happy.

Xiao Jing ting cleaned up for a while, and Xu Muan found the owner of the restaurant and sold 300 clusters of grapes to Zhou Ji, the owner of Yuehe restaurant for 200 copper coins per cluster. With the money from more than 30 clusters of grapes sold before, Xiao Jing ting had more than sixty silver in his hand.

"Hurry up and redeem those mu of fine land." Xu Muan urged.

Xiao Jing ting smiled awkwardly and said, "When I went out, one mu of high-grade land was 22 silver. To redeem it, I needed 26. The money I have now can only redeem two mu."

Xu Muan thought about it and said, "Why don't you redeem those mu of medium farmland first?' Although the first-class field was good, they don't have enough spiritual power to make full use of this resource. With Xiao Jing ting's current strength, it would be already difficult with the medium fields.

Xiao Jing ting nodded and agreed, "OK!"

The total amount of medium field was six mu, ten silver per mu of field. Plus three percent of interest, it would take a total of 78 silver to redeem it.

Xiao Jing ting took the title deed and shook his head in depression. He lost all the money he had just earned and still needed to add some.

Xu Muan family also cultivated land before he married Xiao Jing ting, so he had a special affection for the land, seeing Xiao Jing ting redeem the land, he immediately felt reassured.

Looking at Xiao Jing ting's expression, Xu Muan confronted him, saying "Outside one mu of medium field will be sold for about eighteen silver. Although some interest has been added, it is still cost-effective. With there fields in your hand, you can rent them out and have some income every year."

The owner of the pawnshop thought that Xiao Jing ting wouldn't come to redeem the land, so he lowered the price of the field to ten silver, just not when Xiao Jing ting went to redeem the land the face of the owner of the pawnshop was as bad as it could be.

Xu Muan slightly raised the corner of his mouth as he thought to himself: The pawnshop owner never thought that Xiao Jing ting would come to redeem the land deed. He used to think that Xiao Jing ting would never come back.

"I know." Xiao Jing ting smiled helplessly, but he was still distressed by so much silver! "Come and pick some seed with me."

Xu Muan nodded and said cheerfully, "Good! If you want to buy seeds for medium-level fields you should buy seeds of better quality."

Xiao Jing ting did not know that shortly after he left the pawnshop Wang Erhu would walk into the pawnshop.

The pawnshop owner was full of dissatisfaction as he said, "You said that Xiao Jing ting would not come to redeem the land, but as a result, he redeemed all six mu of land. If I had known it, I would have give him more money to earn more money from interest!"

Wang Erhu chuckled and said, "He was introduced by me in the first place, shopkeeper, you earned more than ten silver from nothing, so don't complain. Just I don't know where he got the money. He told me before that he spent it all."

Thinking about that nobleman's words, that as long as Xiao Jing ting was separated from his wife and children, and had to live on the street, he would give him 500 silver, Wang Wrhu could not help becoming anxious. Originally, Xiao Jing ting was addicted to the Happy Powder and gambling, and he was about to be broke, but now, he didn't gamble or spend money on whores, and he had changed his ways of living. It was just too unbelievable.
