I was afraid that Xiao Jiading would be unhappy because of the heat. Unexpectedly, Xiao Jiading laughed and said, "Slow down, although the wine worms are coming, I am not in a hurry to drink. Hahahaha."

The girls quickly came over to help pick up the fruits and vegetables on the ground, wiped them on their chests, and then placed them in the fruit plate in front of Xiao Family Ding.

Xiao Jiading smiled even more happily.

Tender bamboo ladles a glass of wine, comes back carefully, puts it in front of Xiao Jiading, blushing and says, "I'm sorry, Mr. Xiao..."

"It's okay! You're also giving away wine."

Nengzhu gave herself another glass of wine, came back and sat next to Xiao Jiading, looked at him with gratitude and smiled, and lowered her head.

Seeing this little episode pass, Xie Cunzheng and Lu Xiangzheng were relieved and quickly ordered the kitchen to serve food! The two sat on both sides of Xiao Jiading, and Lu Shujian sat at the end. Xie Cunzheng called three village girls to sit next to the three of them to serve the wine.

Soon, the dishes were served. It was quite exquisite. What Xiao Jiading was very satisfied with was that there were many pheasants, wild boars, grasshoppers and other wild game he liked, so he started to eat them with great enthusiasm. Xie Cunzheng and Lu Xiangzheng were even more happy to see that he liked them. After he ate for a while, he started to toast. This wine was also pretty good, it was a local roasted spring wine in Yizhou, which was considered a high-end wine.

In order to wait a moment, Xiao Jiading refused to refuse everyone and drank the wine. Soon, more than half of the big bottle of the spring wine went to, and the three of them were already drunk. The three girls drank less, but their cheeks were full of red glow and kept laughing.

Xiao Jiading knew that there must be something wrong with them to treat him to dinner, and he happened to have something to ask them to do, so he had to tell them before them so that they would not say it first. Then his affairs became like an exchange, so he stopped listening. He narrowed his eyes and looked at Xie Cunzheng and Lu Xiangzheng with drunken eyes, and said, "The night is dim outside, and it is very pleasant. Why don't we three watch the night view without the bow of the boat?"

The two of them quickly agreed, got up and carried the wine pot and followed Xiao Jiading out of the cabin door.

The Lu Shuli knew that they wanted to talk about things, so he naturally would not follow them. The girls were also tactful and did not go out.

The three of them came to the bow of the boat, and Xiao Jiading looked at the night. He said, "You are all gentry in the village. Do you have a lot of land at home?"

The two of them hurriedly smiled and said, "There are some, haha."

Xiao Jiading said again: "I don't know much about the land, but I'm very curious. By the way, this barren slope and stone mountain should be cheaper than farmland, right?"

Lu Xiangzheng and Xie Cunzheng looked at each other and said, "That's more than a little cheaper, and they can't be compared to the same."

"Oh? How big is the gap?"

"A barren slopes can only plant trees, but not farming. A large barren slope can only be equivalent to 10% of the same radius of fields. As for stone mountains, if the location is not good, it will be even cheaper. It would be amazing to get one in a hundred."

Xiao Jiading was very convinced. He said that if he wanted to buy stone mountains on both sides of the shore, there should be no need to spend too much money on the barren slopes. But he had to figure out the specific price and asked again: "Buy all the stone mountains and barren slopes on both sides of the Jinjiang River. How much do you think it is worth?"

Both of them were a little drunk and did not think about the meaning of Xiao Jiading's question. Lu Xiang said, "I bought all this worthless one, and it's a great deal! This is because there are many trees on the desert slopes on both sides. If there are no trees, I'm afraid it's a little cheaper."

Xie Cunzheng nodded in agreement and said, "If you discuss with the landlords, the price will still drop. I estimate that you can buy all of them at most 80 knots."

Eighty stakes, which is RMB 400,000, plus the trees on the hillside, Xiao Jiading felt that the price was acceptable. He smiled and said, "Will the owner of the stone mountain sell those barren slopes?"

"There is no one unwilling to do it. It is best to sell such a place. Who wants to hold it in your hand? Sell it and change it, and buy fertile land soon earns back the capital and profit."

Xiao Jiading smiled and said, "Okay, then please help me buy all the deserted slopes and stone mountains on both sides of the Jinjiang River in your countryside for me. Is it OK?"

Luxiang Zheng and Xie Cunzheng were stunned for a moment. Luxiang Zheng smiled and said, "Is Xiao Zhiyi going to buy stones and make money by making stones? Hehe, the stone mountains on both sides of the Jinjiang River are not valuable and far from the city. It is really not a good place to build stones. If Zhiyi wants to set up a stone yard, there are better places than these places. We can help Zhiyi and make Zhiyi satisfied."

Xiao Jiading shook his head and said, "I bought stone mountains on both sides of the Jinjiang River to carve some Buddha statues on both sides of the river to curb the floods of Jinjiang River and benefit the local people. As for the desert slopes, I bought medicinal materials."

When the two heard this, they felt relieved and quickly exclaimed: "So that's the case. Since it's carving, there is no need to worry about Zhiyi, let's do it. We will help Xiao Zhiyi buy it for the deserted slope. As for Shishan, don't buy it. Isn't it just carving Buddha statues? Let's do it."

Xiao Jiading shook his head and said, "No, this is my long-cherished wish. I will do it myself. Moreover, I want to buy these stone mountains and carve Buddha statues in my place, so that I can be sincere. To be honest, I will benefit the local people. Although it is the truth, it is mainly for myself. I heard that who carved the Buddha statues and blessed whom the most. How do you carve them?

The two of them laughed a little frightened and said, "That's right, that's it, then we will help Zhiyi buy all the deserted slopes on both sides of the shore, and the stone mountains are."

Xiao Jiading said: "The price is as high as you said just now. Please help me discuss with those landlords."

Lu Xiangzheng and Xie Cunzheng looked at each other and said hurriedly: "This one doesn't have to be so high, just... it's only twenty cents. You can buy it with such a lot of money."

Xiao Jiading's face turned cold and said, "The reason why I didn't just talk about buying barren mountains and stone mountains just now is that I don't want to take advantage of this! It's as much as you should. I'm already very grateful if you can help me buy it at this price. I don't need to pay for me! I don't want to give me some money! Do you understand? I don't lack this little money!"

The two of them did want to sell Xiao Jiading at a low price to bribe, but they didn't expect that Xiao Jiading would ask the price first, so his intention would not be realized. Last time they wanted to bribe Xiao Jiading at a low price, they had already been completely rejected by Xiao Jiading and were scolded. This made Lu Xiangzheng remember it fresh and dared not repeat the same mistakes. He thought that if he wanted to curry favor with this person, he would not use the "chiluo" method of giving money, and he had to change some tricks. If he could do this, it would be one of the ways to please him.

So both of them agreed repeatedly, saying that they would help Xiao Jiading buy these barren mountains and stone mountains as soon as possible at the price of 80 guan.

After Xiao Jiading finished his business, he saw that they were about to talk about their affairs, so he didn't want to connect the two things together, so as not to give people a sense of transaction, so he said, "Go back!" After that, he ignored them and went straight back to the house. Lu Xiangzheng and the others had to follow in.

After sitting down, Luxiang said, "It doesn't mean much to drink just like this. Otherwise, let these girls in our village sing a few folk songs to help you liven up?"

Xiao Jiading smiled and nodded: "Okay! I'm used to listening to poetry, songs, and listening to folk songs, it's refreshing."

Luxiang said, "If you want to talk about folk songs, the young bamboo girl next to you, and her sister, are the best singers in the village."

"Oh? Is that right?" Xiao Jiading looked at the Neanzhu, "Where is your sister?"

Nengzhu pointed to a girl standing by the wall with a red face: "Here, where is it!"

Xiao Jiading turned his head and looked at him. Sure enough, he saw a girl who looked a little like a tender bamboo, and was one or two years older than the tender bamboo. He asked, "What's your name?"

The girl was more generous than the tender bamboo and was less shy. She stepped forward and said blessedly: "Little woman Yun Yan, pay homage to Mr. Xiao!"

"Well, then sing!"

Lu Xiangzheng smiled and said, "Zhiyi, the most fun thing about the folk song is duet. Only when a man and a woman sing it will taste good. Otherwise, Zhiyi will have one with them?"

Xiao Jiading laughed and said, "If you want to write poetry, I know a little, but if you want to raise folk songs, I don't know anything!"

Lu Xiang Zheng said: "This is easy. The tender bamboo next to you is a good player. Let her help you. The tone of this folk song is fixed and will be soon, but you have to respond immediately. This is the most particular thing. She will help you sing first. You will be soon!"

"Okay!" Xiao Jiading was thick-skinned and half drunk, and then smiled.

Seeing that Xiao Jiading agreed, Neonzhu looked up at her sister Yun Yan and said, "Sister, I'm helping Mr. Xiao. Come first!"

Yun Yan smiled and sang, her voice clear and loud:

One thread comes with another pin,

The needle is heavy and the thread is light.

Brother is a steel needle without wires.

How to follow the girl after calling her?

Xiao Jiading immediately applauded, and the others also applauded. The young bamboo smiled and sang back:

Green vines tangle the tree and drill upwards,

When a bird loves the mountains, it goes into the mountains.

There are only boats in the world,

Have you ever seen a shore boat?

Xiao Jiading applauded again, and this time the applause was full of surprise. I thought this tender bamboo was not simple. The other party said that the man should sing the girl first, but the tender bamboo used vines to wrap the tree and the boat docked to show that the big tree of Xiao Jiading is the shore, so naturally he had to wait for the other party to take the initiative to curry favor. This is very consistent with Xiao Jiading's identity. From this, it can be seen that this woman is very clever.

Next, both sides sang a few songs back and forth, and only heard the pretty face of Yun Yan looking at Xiao Jiading with red faces and sang softly:

The moon hangs on the hills,

Although the mountain songs are beautiful, the river has sunk.

If Brother Love likes me,

Let's play and follow and sing.

As soon as she finished singing, a burst of laughter suddenly erupted. The girls looked at Xiao Jiading. The tender bamboo beside Xiao Jiading also looked at Xiao Jiading with a smile and said, "Sister's mountain song is clearly stated that you want to go back in person. I can't help you go back, you can go back by yourself."
