Chapter 153

After discussion, several families decided to buy the vacant land in front of and behind their own yards.

As for the three yards, the third grandfather said: "My family will buy one."

They lived with Dashan's family, and they didn't buy a yard. They had to buy one. When Fuya's family found it, there would be a place to live.

Gu Jinli's family wanted all the other two courtyards.

Gu Jinli wants to make soy sauce, and the tofu business needs to expand, so he needs a yard for a workshop, and the remaining yard is prepared to live in for his family after he finds Da Ya and Aunt.

The high scribes were quick to do things. They came one by one, and within two quarters of an hour, they completed the house deeds and land deeds of several of them.

So far, Gu Jinli's family now has three yards of old mud houses, each of which covers an area of ​​two acres. It took 12 taels of silver to complete the deeds of the three yards.

Her family bought all the vacant land in front of and behind the three yards, which totaled 40 mu, and cost [-] taels of silver.

There is also six acres of wasteland that is being reclaimed, costing six taels of silver.Calculated item by item, her family spent a total of 58 taels of silver.

This is a lot of money. If it was in the past, her family would not be able to get it out, but they have been in the tofu business for more than a month, and they have received an average of three taels of silver every day. Now the family has more than 100 taels. You can get 58 taels of silver to buy a house or land.

Gu Jinli and Gu Dashan took out the cloth bag they were carrying, took out two bags of broken silver from it, and handed it to the high scribe.

Gao Shuli counted the money, and after confirming that it was correct, he handed over the house deed and land deed to Gu Dashan.

Gu Dashan was very excited when he took over the deed of the house and land. He can be regarded as a person who owns the house and the land.

After the excitement, Gu Dashan hurriedly put the deed and land deed close to his body, and patted the inner pocket of his heart from time to time, for fear that the deed and land deed would disappear.

Gao Scribe seized the time to complete the house deeds and land deeds for the rest of the family. Just after finishing the house deeds and land deeds, a loud noise came from far and near. Gao Scribe heard the sound and waved to them. Said: "Come with me."

Several families hurriedly followed Gao Shuli to a small corner door behind the official's house. Gao Shuli took out a bunch of keys and opened the small corner door: "Go from here and pass through this small passage to the north back door of the county government office. It is the place where the yamen servants go in and out, and someone from the Jiang family is waiting for you."

"Thank you, my lord." The third grandfather and the others bowed to Gao Shuli, hurried into the corner gate and left the courtyard of the official's house, followed the small passage to the north back door of the county government office, Shang Xiucai was already waiting for them at the door.Beside him stood two unfamiliar servants, and a burly middle-aged man dressed in black and brown, with a wolfskin belt around his waist, and a bearded face.

This person is Shang Xiucai's eldest uncle, Jiang Qi.

Jiang Qi glanced at the group of them for a while, fixed his eyes on Qin Sanlang, and asked, "Is this the young man of the Qin family?"

Shang Xiucai nodded: "Exactly."

"Haha, look at this body, this waist, he really is a trainer." Because of Lu Dezhu's incident, Jiang Qi liked Qin Sanlang very much.

Qin Sanlang grinned when he heard the words, and the smile was a little shy.

Shang Xiucai said: "This is my uncle, the boss of my father-in-law's family."

Several family members hurriedly greeted Jiang Qi.

The third grandpa asked Shang Xiucai: "When we were in the official's room, we heard a noise. It seemed that a group of people came to the official's room, but was stopped by another group. Nothing will happen, right?"

He was afraid that Jiang Xianwei's people would fight Zou Xiancheng's people.

Jiang Qi waved his hand and said, "Don't worry if you are old, nothing will happen. After all, this is the county government office. Although the Zou family is a local snake, the people in the county magistrate of Zou dare not go too far, or wait for the county magistrate and my father. Come back, they are not easy to explain."

Jiang Qi said again: "Lu Dezhu has been watched by Lao Yang and his men. After dark, Lao Yang's men will escort him into the classroom through the back door. His matter will not involve your family."

The third grandpa and the others were very happy after hearing this, so that's fine.They are farmers, they just want to farm the land honestly, and they don't want to get involved with any officials.

After Jiang Qi finished talking about it, he looked at Qin Sanlang: "You have handled Lu Dezhu's matter extremely well."

Ask him again: "What kind of work do you do at home? Do you want to come to the county government to work as an errand?"

Qin Sanlang shook his head: "Thank you, Uncle Jiang, for your kindness. The family has just settled down, and there is still a lot of work to be done. Grandpa is getting older. I want to stay at home and help out in the past two years, but I haven't thought about leaving home for the time being."

Jiang Qi said: "He is filial. But you don't have to rush to answer. Go home and discuss it with your grandfather. Maybe he will agree to you coming to the county government to work as an errand."

Officials have great power and high status, and farmers dream of working in the yamen.Jiang Qi felt that even if Qin Sanlang's grandfather was expelled, he would expel Qin Sanlang into the county government.

Qin Sanlang smiled: "Then I'll go home and ask Grandpa, but if it doesn't work, I hope Uncle Jiang will not blame him."

Hearing this, Jiang Qi was even more satisfied with Qin Sanlang.This young man is not a simple and honest man, but a man who can talk and deal with things.

Shang Xiucai looked at the alley in front of him and said, "Uncle, let's go back first, the people of Zou Xiancheng are getting angry, it's not good for them to see us."

"Okay, you guys go back first." Jiang Qi said to the two servants beside him: "Huzi, Ah Liu, send my uncle and the others back. If someone who is short-sighted dares to embarrass my uncle, you know what to do."

"Master, don't worry, you guys will definitely not let those dogs bully our uncle." Both Hu Zi and Ah Liu are strong men who are nearly thirty years old. .

Jiang Qi nodded, and Huzi and Ah Liu led Shang Xiucai out of the alley, boarded two mule carts, and drove towards the city gate.

One of the two mule carts belonged to Shang Xiucai's family, and the other belonged to Jiang's family. Lao Luo was not there, and Huzi and Ah Liu drove the carts, and they arrived at the city gate not long after.

When he arrived at the city gate, Hu Zi saw two servants of the Lu family, knowing that they were waiting here specially, he sneered at them, flicked his whip, and rushed out of the city gate.

After running for more than a quarter of an hour, I saw Lao Luo and Ah Jiu, picked them up, and ran towards Qingfu Town.

……

In the Lu family, Widow Qiu was thumping the back of Oldest Lu: "Don't worry, the third master, the Qin, Gu, and Luotian families would never have thought that we would come up with such a clever trick. When Lu Dezhu comes back with their house deeds, Let's ask Lu Dezhu to take people to drive them out of the house, it's getting dark, and they will sleep outside tonight."

Widow Qiu smiled, and said viciously: "There are a few girls who are not young in those families. Let Zhang Niuzi take people to the places where they sleep in the open to make a fuss, and the girls in those families will have a bad reputation. Now, when the time comes, you will avenge yourself.”

"It deserves it. If you dare to go against me, those families deserve to suffer like this!" Lu Lao San hummed opera while eating candied dates, waiting happily for Lu Dezhu to come back.

But instead of waiting for Lu Dezhu, he waited for his second brother.

Lu Lao Er returned to Dafeng Village in the middle of the night. After seeing Lu Lao San in the study, he slapped Lu Lao San twice.

clap clap!

Both sides of Lu Lao San's face were swollen from the beating, and he woke up in fright. When he saw Lu Lao Er, he said angrily, "Second brother, why are you so crazy?"

Lu Er Er scolded: "Why am I crazy? If it weren't for your bad idea, would I have gone crazy? It's a failure! Lu Dezhu is gone, and this time our Lu family will have to suffer another injury!"
