Chapter 101

"Fang Wuju?!!"

"Master Fang!!!"

"Isn't the young master disabled? How can this be so good?"

The two groups of people who were about to clash were all stunned at this time, rubbing their eyes constantly, unable to believe what they saw.

Didn’t everyone say that the young master was disabled and could no longer stand up?

Why is it that the young master is fine now, but he doesn't look disabled at all?

"You idiot, you dare to say that the young master is disabled, I think you are the disabled one." Immediately, someone knocked the man who just spoke out hard and taught him a lesson for his nonsense.

Fang Wuju, Mr. Fang.

They are the first martial arts examiner in the history of Daliushu Village. In terms of status, they are more distinguished than Liu Juren.

To say to someone's face that they are disabled is not slander.

If Fang Wuju were to pursue the case, everyone present would probably have nothing to gain.

When these people faced Fang Mu, they dared to refute and disbelieve Fang Mu.

It was just that they felt that Fang Yue was disabled, and he heard that he had severed ties with the martial arts schools in the city. He was already a useless person with no future and no backing, so they didn't care about him.

Therefore, at first, when Fang Mu came out to persuade, those people would not believe his words.

But now, Fang Yue stands here, standing here intact.

Immediately, the crowd, which had been excited just now and almost started to fight, fell completely silent.

"What my father said is what I mean. Of course, it's okay if you don't want to hear it. Now I'll give you a chance."

Fang Yue's face was expressionless, but the more he was like this, the more the villagers in front of him became silent and did not dare to speak.

"Whether it originally belonged to Liu Ju's family or to my family, according to the current market price, each mu of land only costs three taels of silver. Those who want to return the land can do so now."

In fact, the price of a piece of land this year has dropped to three taels of silver per acre.

But these tenants enjoyed the benefit of being exempted from land tax and saved more than ten taels of silver a year.

Now, they only need three taels of silver per acre to withdraw their land, which is considered to be for the sake of the villagers.

"This is too expensive. These fields originally belonged to us, and Fang Wuju sold them to us at market prices.

I'm afraid this is not good.Fang Wuju, Master Fang, can't bully us like this. "

At this time, someone else from the previous group of people said.

Yes, they just donated the land, although judging from the title deeds, these fields have now returned to Fang Yuejia.

However, these fields have actually only changed owners, and the tenants still have permanent use rights.

"Haha, interesting."

Fang Yue smiled slightly, and his eyes immediately locked on one person in the crowd.

This person has been fanning the flames and even knows about the property transactions between his family and Liu Ju's family.

Perhaps, today's former tenants of the Liu family were also incited by this person.

This must be because Liu Ju was unwilling to give up and arranged trouble for their family before leaving.

"Oh, in that case, the land you sold to Liu Juren was a lie? That's just right. According to the laws of the Wei Dynasty, those who fake land transactions to avoid land taxes will have an eighty stick and three thousand miles of exile."

"Why don't we go to the Yamen today and report the matter to Mr. Liu County and ask Mr. Liu to make a decision."

Fang Yue sneered and looked at this 'member of the Liu family' with interest.

Sure enough, when this man heard what Fang Yue said, he dared not speak.

Cold sweat oozed from his forehead, and he didn't dare to wipe it, and it dripped down.

In just a few breaths, the man knelt down on the ground and began to kowtow: "Mr. Fang, it's all me who is obsessed with it. I was motivated by wealth and took five taels of silver from Butler Liu, so I talked nonsense. "

"Please spare me, please spare me, I will never dare to do this again."

Immediately, Fang Yue looked at the other people around him.

"It's nothing, let's go."

After Fang Yue finished speaking, he stopped caring about these people and turned back directly.

After a while.

Father Fang and Fang Cheng also followed in.

"Xie'er, is what you just said true? If the Yamen finds out about the donation of land, will they be punished? Will they be exiled?" Father Fang asked nervously.

Good guy, one of them will hit eighty boards.

This must not beat the person to death. If he is not dead, he will be exiled again. There is really no way to survive.

So much land was 'donated' to his family. If it were found out, how many slaps would be needed!

"Haha, dad, don't worry. This is of course false. I don't know if the government has such a rule. I just made it up to tease them. I didn't expect those people to actually believe it."

Fang Yue said half-truthfully.

The court must have corresponding laws to restrict this kind of tax avoidance, but who would check it these days? Everyone does it.

If the people do not hold officials accountable, no one will care about this kind of thing.

~~~~~~
But said the other side.

After almost a month of trekking, Liu Juren and his family finally arrived in Fucheng.

First, he rented a house in Fucheng and settled the family there.

"Dad, I just went out to inquire about it. It is said that Lieutenant Bai made a contribution during the suppression of the rebellion in Moshan. He was promoted to a rank and is now a sixth-grade garrison officer. We are more sure of what happened this time. .”

The person Liu Chuanzhi actually found was through connections, and it was none other than Duwei Bai, a seventh-rank officer of the Fucheng Guards.

After arriving in Fucheng, I discovered that the opponent had been upgraded due to his military exploits and was now a sixth-grade garrison officer.

After being promoted one level, from the original middle-level officer to now, he has almost entered the senior officer system of Fucheng.

He truly became a prominent figure in Shanyang Mansion.

In this way, the task they were asked to do would be much simpler. It was originally very promising, but now it is definitely a sure thing.

"Okay, that's good. It's not in vain for us to sell our family property. As long as dad, the military officer of the Guard, can get it, our family will be prosperous again in a few years."

Although military officials are noble, military officials have more status than civilian officials.

But whether it is the court or the army, there are always some positions that need to be filled by civilians.

For example, accounting and economic positions such as accounting are still held by literati.

"Dad, don't worry, I'll leave this matter to me. I promise to do it beautifully for you."

"Well, that's right. Zhi'er is indeed my Qilin'er! You can withdraw the money at home and you can do the work, I can rest assured."

Liu Juren stroked his beard happily and couldn't help but smile.

At the same time, he seemed to see his family becoming more and more prosperous.

The Fang family, who took over his family's property, was attacked by hungry people because of the continuous disaster.
~~~~~~
Another month has passed.

On this day, Fang Yue was practicing martial arts at home.

"Those secret medicines should only be enough for one month, but I didn't expect that they were not used up."

After practicing martial arts, Fang Yue looked at the remaining half of the secret medicine.

Obviously this is not a normal situation, the secret medicine should have just been used up.

Even if there is one left, it is impossible to leave half of it.

"In other words, when I practiced this month, I consumed less secret medicine, or was the effectiveness of the secret medicine extended?"

The more Fang thought about it carefully, he had never encountered such a situation.

Under normal cultivation conditions, the secret medicine can only be consumed in advance, but there is never any time left.

So, why are there still so many secret medicines left?
"Could it be because of the Wu Tu Yuan Stone?" Fang Yue thought about it. Apart from refining the Wu Tu Yuan Stone, nothing else happened in this month.

To say that there is something that can affect the secret medicine.

Then it can only be the Wu Tu Yuan Stone.

"So, it's not that the refining Yuan Stone has no effect at all, but that this Yuan Stone can enhance or replace the effect of the secret medicine?"

Fang Yue couldn't help but think.

That's how it makes sense.

Forget it, it's a good thing anyway.

If he does this, he can practice for another month.

Otherwise, he would have no money or money, and he would have no money to buy the secret medicine anymore.

"Xie'er, I have your letter!"

At this moment, Mrs. Chen came over and handed the letter in his hand to Fang Yue.

Although there was a concierge at home, Chen was still willing to deliver the letter to Fang Yue personally.

"Thank you, mother." Fang Yue smiled sweetly.

He opened the letter immediately and found that the letter was actually written by Fatty Bai.

In the letter, Fatty Bai said that the water shortage situation in Shanyang Mansion would begin to recover before the end of the month.

In this way, if we rush to plant a batch of tea trees, we can expand our tea frying business next year.

In the letter, he persuaded Fang Yue to plant tea trees.

The rest are just some polite words for human relations, and he also invited Fang Yue to go to Fucheng sometime. When the time comes, he will invite Fang Yue to the largest flower house in Fucheng to have a good time.

"He's really that damn fat guy. He hasn't changed at all."

Fang Yue also smiled when he saw the end.

The fat man knew that he was hurt, but the words in the letter remained the same as before, and he did not break off relations with him or alienate him.

He is quite a trustworthy person.

"However, the fat man said so, so it seems that Shanyang Mansion will return to normal soon. In this case, it is a good opportunity to expand the market for fried tea."

This drought has dealt a huge blow to the tea business in almost all parts of Shanyang Prefecture.

Because tea cannot be eaten and there is a shortage of food, many tea farmers cut down tea trees and plant drought-resistant grains.

Therefore, if we seize the opportunity this time, it is really possible to further expand the market.

"Since this fat man wants to expand the market, he must be sure. It's okay to just bet for a while."

Fang Yue made up his mind. His family now has almost [-] acres of land. If they grow tea all, as long as there is water, they will definitely make a fortune next year.

Immediately, Fang Yue found his parents and elder brother and told them about planting tea trees.

"Xie'er, I'm afraid this kind of tea tree is not good. Can the tea tree survive without water?" Father Fang asked with some disbelief.

"What do you know? When Xie'er said about planting tea trees, there must be a reason for planting tea trees." As soon as Father Fang retorted, Mrs. Chen gave him a fierce look.

Although she also doubted in her heart that the tea trees would not survive in this situation, but as long as it was what She'er said, it was definitely right.

When Xie'er said he could grow tea trees, he must be able to do so.

"I, I'm not afraid that She'er won't be able to farm!" Fang's father said in a low voice.

Fang Yue is a martial artist. If he is powerful, he is the most powerful. If he is capable, he is also capable.But when it came to farming, his family's pigs didn't get his true inheritance.

In this regard, he is still very confident.

"Dad, have you forgotten why we bought Liu Juren's land?" Fang Yue said with a smile.

"She'er, She'er, are you saying that there is really going to be water?"

Why did he buy the land? Fang Yue told him at that time that the disaster would be over soon.

After returning to normal, the price of land will definitely go back up.

It costs 4000 taels now, but by then the fields will be at least three or four times larger.

Thinking of this, Fang Mu's breathing quickened and his face immediately turned red.

If that were the case, his family would really be in trouble.

"I have to worry about this matter, dad and eldest brother, so that everyone in the village can plant tea trees." Fang Yue said.

"Okay, leave this matter to me and your brother. I promise to do it beautifully."

Father Fang patted his chest and promised that as long as the disaster is over and there is water, things will return to normal.

It is not difficult for everyone to plant tea trees.

However, things did not go as smoothly as Father Fang thought.

Letting the villagers plant tea trees was unanimously opposed by the villagers.

There is almost no food left. There are so many crops planted in the fields, but not even [-]% of the crops are harvested. We are almost out of food.

Who is going to plant tea trees?

They had heard that throughout Xiahe County, some villages that originally grew tea trees had their tea trees cut down.

In the end, Fang Yue took action personally.

Assure these villagers that they are right to plant tea trees and this disaster will be over soon.

Only then did these villagers temporarily believe Fang Yue.

Then the Fang family also sent out some food and distributed some to each household in the village.

This allowed the villagers to plant tea trees with confidence.

Of course, when planting tea trees now, we only need to make preparations first.

No one in Daliushu Village planted tea trees before, so naturally there were no tea tree species.

Fang Yue had to go out and buy a batch.

Fortunately, the White Tiger Boxing Gym has some tea gardens under its name.

There must be tea tree saplings.

"It seems that we still have to go to Xiahe County."

Fang Yue didn't want to go to Xiahe County before because he didn't want to get involved in the war between the government and the Moshan tribe.

Anyway, he was injured, and it was because of the battle with Mo Shanbe.

At this time, the Moshan tribe has completely fallen into a disadvantage and will be wiped out soon.

Therefore, even if he shows up, he won't be forced to become a strong man.

After a few days, Fang Yue packed up and headed to Xiahe County.

~~~~~~
Xiahe County, gambling house.

"Hey, isn't this Mr. Chen? What brings you here again? There will be a martial arts exam in two days. Mr. Chen will definitely pass the exam!"

As soon as Chen Liang walked into the gambling shop, a waiter in the shop greeted him warmly.

The shopkeeper of the gambling house had already told him that Chen Liang must be treated well when he comes.

But if the other party asks to borrow money, he won't be able to borrow money, and will instead have to collect the debt.

Chen Liang almost raised his face after hearing what this guy said.

"Humph, I guess you're wise. No, I'm a little short of money these two days. Lend me another 50 taels of silver."

When the guy heard this, his face immediately turned cold:
"You took another 100 taels from us last time, and now you have borrowed a total of 500 taels of silver? For the sake of your cousin Fang Wuju, our shopkeeper will give you a [-]% discount on the interest."

"You owe us a total of 1000 taels of silver."
