"Yuan Wu, take 10,000 taels of silver and bring some people to buy 5,000 mu of land for me.
He wanted the land in Lantian County.
It was close to the capital.
After buying the land, they would recruit tenants and charge 30% of the rent for each mu of land.”
After that, Yuan Wu was the only one left.
Yuan Ye took out 10,000 taels and asked Yuan Wu to buy land for him.
Right now, the price of farmland near the capital was one mu and two taels.
Although Yuan Ye had plenty of money now, he couldn't wantonly annex land.
For example, the families of those high-ranking officials of the imperial court had tens of thousands of mu of land.
There were even hundreds of thousands of acres.
But they didn't dare to put the land under their name.
They were all under the names of their cousins or good friends.
"Master, isn't 30% too little? The market now charges 40% to 50% of the rent and leaves 20% to 30% for the tenants.”
Yuan Wu suggested to Yuan Ye.
"When you say that there's enough to eat, do you mean that there won't be a next meal or that there must be one or two hungry people at home?”
Yuan Ye asked Yuan Wu calmly.
"This…"
Hearing Yuan Ye's words, Yuan Wu was speechless.
"Master doesn't care about others, but I have to feed the tenants with my own land.
Hurry up and do it."
Yuan Ye scolded Yuan Wu coldly.
"Yes, sir!"
When Yuan Wu heard this, he did not dare to say anything more. He took the banknote and was about to run out.
"Wait a minute."
"Brat, if you use my name to bully the commoners and force them to buy and sell, if I find out, I'll skin you alive.”
Just as Yuan Wu was about to leave the study room, Yuan Ye stopped Yuan Wu and warned him.
"Yes, sir!"
Yuan Wu broke out in a cold sweat.
However, he still agreed and ran away.
However, Yuan Wu was puzzled as to why Yuan Ye had suddenly changed his attitude.
He actually stopped bullying people.
What he didn't know was that Yuan Ye bullied people who were powerful and influential.
He would never choose to bully the commoners.
Yuan Ye admitted that he was not a good person, but he had never admitted that he was inhumane.
…
"Old Master, the Xue family's young lady requests an audience."
While Yuan Ye was enjoying his tea in the study, one of the guards at the door ran over and reported to Yuan Ye.
"Oh?"
"Please!"
Yuan Ye raised his eyelids and said.
"Yes, sir!"
The servant left after hearing this.
…
"Greetings, Lord Yuan."
After Xue Baochai was brought over, she gave Yuan Ye a female bow.
"Sit!"
Yuan Ye gestured for Xue Baochai to sit opposite him.
Then, he gestured for the servant girl to pour tea.
"I came here this time to apologize to my brother.
In the past, Daren had been busy, but today she was free, so Baochai came over.”
Xue Baochai said to Yuan Ye with a smile after sitting down.
"There's no need for that. I've accepted your Xue family's money, and the resentment between us will be written off.
Although I don't think I'm a good person, I'm not someone who would insist on reconciliation.”
Yuan Ye waved his hand and said to Xue Baochai.
"Yes, sir! The Xue family naturally trusted Daren's character.
However, he still had to apologize.”
" It's just that the Jia family's Di daughter, Jia Yuanchun, has been conferred the title of Xiande Consort by His Majesty, and the Jia family's Saint's favor is very strong, so…"
Xue Baochai smiled and said to Yuan Ye. After saying that, she added with hesitation.
"This is your true purpose for coming here, right?”
Yuan Ye said.
"Yes, I've made a fool of myself."
Xue Baochai pursed her lips into a smile and admitted it without quibbling.
"Heh, since I've interfered in the matters of your Xue Clan and Jia Clan, you naturally don't need to worry.
No matter how powerful the Jia family is, they still have to worry about me now.
So what if Jia Yuanchun became Consort Xiande?
If she can't defeat me in the palace, then I'll take it away from the Jia family.”
Yuan Ye said to Jia Yuanchun with a confident smile.
"Yes!"
Hearing Yuan Ye's words, Xue Baochai thought about it and agreed.
Therefore, he was completely relieved.
"You're sick."
Yuan Ye stared at Xue Baochai and suddenly said.
Xue Baochai was stunned when she heard that, thinking that Yuan Ye was scolding her.
But then, he thought about it and replied,"Yes, when my mother was pregnant with me, she carried a heat toxin in her womb, so every time it acted up, she had to take a cold fragrance pill to ease the condition.”
"Can you show it to me?" Yuan Ye asked.”
"Of course," said Xue Baochai.
Xue Baochai took out a bottle of Cold Fragrance Pills and handed it to Yuan Ye.
"Yes, this Cold Fragrance Pill has the coolness of peony, lotus, hibiscus, and plum blossoms in spring, summer, autumn, and winter. It has the sweetness of honey and white sugar, and the sweetness and bitterness of corktree bark.”
Yuan Ye opened the bottle and took a whiff before revealing the recipe.
"This…"
Xue Baochai was shocked when she heard that.
Just by smelling it, he could tell what kind of superpower this was.
Even a godly doctor couldn't know everything with just a light sniff.
"It's just a very ordinary thing.
Even though he needed herbs that were suitable for the seasons, he could collect them in large quantities every season.
This was no longer fresh or not.
Otherwise, you would have been tortured to death by the heat poison long ago.”
Yuan Ye closed the jade bottle and returned it to Xue Baochai.
"Ding! [Mission: Cure the heat poison in Xue Baochai's body.]
[Mission reward: 100 bottles of each of lemon, orange, vanilla, amber, Patchouli, rose, jasmine, iris, Sicilian orange, Haiti vetiver Chanel perfume.]”
At this moment, the system immediately issued a mission.
Yuan Ye frowned when he heard the reward.
This reward was a little out of Yuan Ye's expectations.
This was the first time he had received a reward, and it was an item that did not exist in this era.
"Sir, are you proficient in medicine?"
Xue Baochai asked Yuan Ye after thinking for a long time.
"Understood!"
Yuan Ye replied with a smile.
Yuan Ye had originally wanted to help Xue Baochai with her treatment.
Now that there was a mission issued by the system, Yuan Ye naturally would not reject it.
"Then…I wonder if you can cure my heat poison.”
Xue Baochai asked expectantly.
"Yes, but it's a little difficult to cure it.”
Yuan Ye nodded.
"No matter how difficult it is, as long as it can be cured.”
Xue Baochai was excited after hearing this and agreed to Yuan Ye without thinking.
She had been harmed by this heat poison, so it was naturally best if she could get rid of it.
"Cough cough, this difficulty is actually not difficult. The main reason is that it is inconvenient between men and women. Because your heat poison was brought out from your mother's womb, it is congenital. In addition, many years have passed, so you have to be honest with me. Moreover, it will take 49 days, and the treatment will be done every seven days.
I'll prescribe medicine for you at other times.”
"Of course, there's no need to eat these Cold Fragrance Pills anymore.
Forty-nine days later, I'll return you a healthy body.”
