Fully Leveled Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl

Chapter 1339: Chapter 1339: The Uses of Money

Three hundred taels, that number is quite significant for Lu Dasong.

How long has it been? Just about a year since planting those sunflowers, right? Three hundred taels in a year — not to mention in their village, even Cuihua’s in-laws running a shop in town don’t earn a pure income of three hundred taels a year, do they?

Lu Dasong suddenly perked up, “So what do you plan to do with these three hundred taels? You see, your Third Uncle has already bought a house, why don’t you also buy one? Having a place to stay over here is always more convenient. Is three hundred taels enough? If not, I have a little bit more in hand that I can add to it.”

Daniu laughed, “Dad, I’m not planning to buy a house.”

“Why not?”

“After Qiaoqiao finishes her confinement, we’ll go back to the manor, and most of the time in the future we’ll still live there. Dad, the area around the manor will develop more and more in the future.”

Others didn’t know, but Daniu was aware that the black market had been sold to Young Master Meng, who planned to open an academy there in the future.

Coupled with the surrounding sunflower field and the nearby workshops, it will only grow larger and wealthier in the future.

Not to mention anything else, even now, there are people setting up small stalls outside the workshop, selling little trinkets.

Because they know that the workshop workers earn high wages; with extra money in their hands and no shops nearby, items on the stalls sell exceptionally well.

In just a few months, several stalls have been set up outside.

However, presently, the number of people in the workshop combined with the farmers hired in the fields adds up to only sixty or seventy people.

In Yu’s plan, the future workshop staff might recruit as many as thousands of people, more than twice the entire population of Shangshi Village.

With the academy opening up in the future, the prosperity of that area can be easily imagined.

Since Daniu will spend most of his time there, why bother buying a house in the county town?

Daniu didn’t go into too much detail with Lu Dasong, but seeing that he had a plan in mind, the latter didn’t press the matter further.

“If you’re not buying a house, then just save the money properly.”

Daniu laughed, “I’m not buying a house, but I plan to renovate the house in Shangshi Village.”

“Hmm?”

“Dad, since you’re unwilling to move to the manor and insist on staying in Shangshi Village, you should live a bit more comfortably. Earlier, our family conditions didn’t allow it, but now they do, so let’s fix it up nicely.”

Lu Dasong immediately refused, “No need, we’re living well enough now. It’s just your mother and me at home, plenty of rooms to live in.”

It’s not a matter of having enough room, but whether they’re comfortable or not.

Daniu didn’t plan to listen to his father and continued, “Besides, I also plan to buy you a mule carriage.”

“Daniu.” Lu Dasong furrowed his brow, “Don’t just spend recklessly because you have some money.”

“I’m not spending recklessly. Dad, with a mule carriage, it’s much more convenient whether you want to visit Grandmother in the county town or check on Zaozao at the manor. Also for Erniu and Lanhua, if you’re worried, you can come over anytime.”

Lu Dasong was somewhat tempted. When the second brother’s family first bought a mule carriage, although he wasn’t as eager as Sanzhu in leading the mule carriage everywhere, he couldn’t help but feel itchy to have one himself.

But…

“If our family buys a mule carriage, your mother will go to the manor frequently.”

Daniu laughed, “Mother doesn’t know how to drive the carriage, so whether she goes or not is up to you.” Besides, whether Mom wants to go to the manor has never depended on whether there’s a carriage at home.

After a pause, Daniu added, “Also, I’m thinking of buying one for my father-in-law too.”
