Finally, they arrived at the Liu residence.

As soon as the carriage stopped, Lin Xiaozhi jumped out of the carriage.

Liu Wuji, who was behind him, kept telling his grandson to watch his steps.

“Help me move everything into the house.” Lin Xiaozhi said to the two servants rather generously.

At the same time, he saw some servants coming out to check on the situation.

Lin Xiaozhi called them over to help.

Therefore, with the help of the large number of people, a large cart of gifts was quickly moved into the courtyard.

Some of them were placed on the stone table under the big tree, and some were placed on the ground because the stone table could not fit them.

At this moment, the servants of the Liu residence had also received the news and came over.

When they heard that the old and young master had also bought gifts for them, they were all very happy.

Liu Shi no longer cared about selling spicy skewers and the like. She sent away the last villager who came to buy things and came over.

Lin Xiaozhi acted like a little adult and quickly distributed the things he bought.

The servants took some food and cloth, and most of the rest belonged to the master.

As Li Wan, Li Xiao, Xiao Qing, and Xiao Yang weren’t around, the things were sent to their rooms.

Lin Xiaoyue and Liu Shi had the most things.

Other than some snacks, there were also exquisite fabrics and even jewelry.

Although the jewelry was only made of silver, the design was very beautiful. It was enough to show the effort of the grandfather and grandson.

The people who received the gifts were all smiling.

The servants liked this new Old Master even more.

Time flew by.

Five days passed in the blink of an eye.

The preliminary plan for the industrial park was finally out.

On this day, Lin Xiaoyue brought Head Fang, Li Jie, and Li Wan to Nan’an County to visit the county magistrate.

When the county magistrate learned that the county lord had personally come to visit, he hurriedly went out to welcome them and invited Lin Xiaoyue and the others into the government office.

After learning the purpose of Lin Xiaoyue and the others, he immediately expressed that the government office could fully cooperate.

He also wrote a letter to the mayor of Qingshi Town, asking him to cooperate with Lin Xiaoyue’s plan.

“For the sake of the people of Qingshi Town, 1 will do my best to help you build an industrial park.”

“Moreover, His Highness also takes this matter very seriously. He had told me about it.”

“After that, if you need anything else, just send someone to pass the message. I will do my best to arrange it.” The county magistrate smiled fawningly.

Of course, he had to curry favor with her. Although she was only the county head, she did not have any real power. But she had a deep relationship with His Highness.

Moreover, she was someone who had received the Emperor’s respect.

If she could help him, he would be able to make a name for himself.

“Thank you so much, sir!” Lin Xiaoyue smiled and thanked him.

“Then…the land price…”

“Oh, since it’s all barren land, you may pay the lowest price offered by the imperial court, 2 taels of silver per mu.”

Lin Xiaoyue thought about it.

The piece of land that she had her eyes on, including the small amount of cultivated land of the people, was finally measured to be more than 3,000 mu.

The commoners had relatively little farmland. According to the high price of 10 taels of silver per mu, it would only cost 300-400 taels of silver.

If the barren land was calculated at 2 taels of silver per mu, then the cost of buying land would be more than 6,000 taels.

This price was actually lower than their previous estimates.

After all, the land price was expensive. Even if it was barren land, under normal circumstances, it would cost 3 to 5 taels of silver per mu.

2 taels of silver was really low.

However, she could not bear the fact that the land she occupied was too big. It was still a large sum of money.

This was only the purchase of land. After that, she still had to recruit workers, buy construction materials, and so on.

She was under a lot of pressure to build this industrial park.

“Deal! Then I’ll have to trouble you to arrange for someone to go to Qingshi Town to measure it. When that’s done, we’ll pay for the deed.” Lin Xiaoyue quickly said.

There was nothing to hesitate about.

After that, even if they couldn’t build so many workshops, with so many workers, the land would increase in price.

When the time came, she could build a new workshop, get other workshops to join the industrial park at a high price, or build some businesses.

She would definitely not lose out on this investment.

“Good! I’ll get someone to go back with you.” The county magistrate said.

Thousands of acres of barren land, even if they only charged 2 taels of silver per mu, the county government could earn thousands of taels of silver this time.

With this money, Nan’an County’s finances would be much better next year.

“Thank you, my lord!” Lin Xiaoyue thanked him again..
