The county magistrate personally took Fang Yunping and three people to Qianya, took them directly to the officials who were in charge of these affairs, and explained that they must find a place suitable for settlement before they can leave.

After all, he is the head of a county, so he can't be too rushed.And now it's time to go to work.

Fang Yunping and the three respectfully sent the county magistrate away.

The official didn't dare to be negligent, and turned around to get the record book of the area under his jurisdiction.

Looking at the thick pile, Fang Yunping and Fang Youwei looked at each other.

Turning to the officials, he said, "My lord, we inquired about a location before, which is seven miles northwest of the county seat. There is an open space there, which is suitable for us to build a village. I don't know where it is, but the open space can be Have a name?"

The official was taken aback. As a local, he certainly knew where it was.

He took out the land record booklet and opened it to find the place. He pointed to the booklet and said to them, "Are you sure you want to go here? This place is called Pan Snake Mountain, which belongs to Qingfengling. The reason why it is vacant is because there are snakes here. The group of snakes entrenched thus got its name.

No one dared to build a village in this place, because they were afraid that the snakes would come down the mountain and attack people and livestock. "

Fang Yunping and the others nodded, "That's right, we chose that place. Your Excellency doesn't know, we have the ancestral method of driving snakes, so we are not afraid of snakes."

The official nodded clearly, it turned out that there is a way to drive snakes away, so he dared to choose this place.

They also have those who live by catching snakes, but they are all ancestral crafts of one or two families, and they dare not live there alone.It is really rare that the whole village will be there.

In this case, he did not persuade.

Summon your men and ask them to bring booklets and measuring tools.Follow along to help them measure the land, and register it when you come back. From now on, it will be the territory of the Fang family.

Since there is no ready-made land over there, it is all wasteland, so there is no need to pay the land deed tax in advance. The land opened up by oneself is tax-free within three years, and only needs to pay the silver taels of the homestead.

Fang Yunping happily paid 150 taels for the homestead and got the land deed. After that, they can build a house there. After the construction is completed, the county government will apply for the house deed. The house is private property and can be bought and sold.

As for the lack of ready-made fields, Fang Yunping is not worried. They will work harder next spring and open up wasteland by themselves.

After clearing the wasteland and planting grain, there will be a harvest in a few months.Now that there is no shortage of money in hand, you can buy food first, and you can still persist for a few months.

After finishing all this, Fang Yunping asked the official again, if he wanted to build a brick house, where could he find someone and buy bricks and tiles.After all, they hadn't done this before, and their eyes were darkened.

The officials looked surprised, they didn't expect that the Fang family members are quite powerful!Even directly to build brick houses.

But if you think about it, this is brought here by the county magistrate himself, so there must be a backer, and I dare not neglect it, let alone underestimate it.

After saying wait a moment, he put away the books on the table, turned to them and said, "It happens that I'm fine now, so I'll take you to the Yaren. The craftsman, and the buyer of bricks and tiles, just give him a few draws."

Fang Yunping and the three nodded their thanks repeatedly, that would be great, and the officials would take them there, and the Yaren would not dare to trick them even if they thought about it.

Afterwards, the three of them followed the official and the official's two servants to the tooth shop across the street from the county government.

On the way, they learned the name of the official, He Huisheng, and the three called each other Mr. He.

This tooth shop is also owned by the government, and it is responsible for helping people in the middle, buying and selling land and houses or servants, you can come here.

Fang Yunping and the other three followed inside, and when the Yaman saw that it was brought by He Huisheng, they gave him an extraordinarily warm reception.

He Huisheng pulled Yaren aside and said something quietly. After Yaren came back, his attitude became more respectful.

After that, Fang Yunping told Yaren about the approximate location of their land, but it has not been measured yet. As for how to build the house and where to build it, it is still necessary to go there and see the situation on the ground to be sure.

However, I still paid some deposits with Yaren, and the bricks and tiles can be prepared in advance.

Yaren received the deposit and gave them a written receipt, and Fang Yunping, the three of them and He Huisheng left.

After He Huisheng bid them farewell at the gate, he returned to the county government office, leaving two government officials to follow them to measure the land.

Fang Yunping and the three were very happy. They didn't expect it to go so smoothly. The matter was almost done in a short period of time. Sure enough, there are people on the top who are good at handling things!
If there was no personal letter from the magistrate, following the proper procedure, it would not be so easy, and it might not be possible to finish it after a few days of delay.

Fang Yunping told the two yamen servants that their clansmen were still waiting not far from the county seat.Is it possible to measure the land along with them?
The two yamen servants said with a good attitude: "No problem, this place is not very far from the Pan Snake Mountain in Qingfeng Ridge, then the two of us will wait at that intersection. You go back and bring the clansmen over, and we will go directly together."

Fang Yunping cupped his fists and saluted, "Thank you, my lords."

Fang Youwei ran to the vicinity of the county government office and called the four people who were still waiting there.

After leaving the county seat, Fang Youwei said to Fang Yunping: "Second Uncle, Li Li and I will just go back. You and Youzhi will wait here with the two adults for a while."

Fang Yunping thought so too, it would be enough for Fang Youwei and a few people to pick up the clansmen, and he could also have a chat with the two yamen servants.

First, it saves people from waiting here, and second, you can inquire about the customs and habits here, so as not to violate other people's taboos.

Figured this out, Fang Yunping nodded, telling them to go and come back quickly.

When Fang Youwei and the others trotted all the way back to the station, they found that everyone had packed up and was waiting for them to come back and leave at any time.

Several people were overjoyed, which saved a lot of time.

Fang Youwei quickly told everyone what happened to them just now.

Everyone was very happy to hear that they could go directly to their future settlement.

I didn't expect things to be done so smoothly and quickly, and I can go there to camp today.

They all got into the car happily, those who drove drove, and those who walked trotted, and they arrived at the intersection outside the county seat in a short while.

The two yamen servants took a look, oh!There were ten ox carts and two donkey carts!

If they hadn't heard from their superiors that these people had fled from the north, they would have thought that what they saw was some landlord who moved his family here!
The two of them thought that they might see a group of refugees for a while, even if there was some relationship with them, it would mean that their faces would look a little better, and they would not be hungry or cold.

Unexpectedly, all the members of the family had ruddy complexions, and there were so many livestock and luggage.
