Chapter 175 Buying Land (3)

Not long after, Ou Shi brought someone in.

When the village chief saw him, he immediately stood up, his back involuntarily bending three points as if seeing someone in authority.

"Mr. Pei, if you have anything to do, just send someone to let me know. Why did you come here in person? Please sit down."

Pei Yu sat down slowly and pressed her hands, "Village Chief, you don't have to be polite. Just treat me as an ordinary junior. There are indeed some things I want to discuss with you, Village Chief, when I come here today."

"Master Pei, please tell me."

Pei Yu took out 200 taels of silver notes from his pocket and put it on the table, "That's it. I heard that someone in the village was selling land on a large scale recently, so I wanted to join in the fun and buy some fertile land. Please help me cultivate crops. In this way, I can be self-sufficient while recuperating in the countryside for a few years."

"Are you here to buy land again?" The village chief glanced at Ou Shi. What kind of wind is blowing today? The Jin brothers are here to buy land, and Pei Yu, a sick young man from the city, also wants to buy land.

"Again?" Pei Yu frowned in confusion, "What does the village chief mean?"

The village chief shook his head, "It's nothing. Does Mr. Pei have any requirements for the land he bought with these 200 taels of silver? I'll tell you the truth, today the second and fourth sons of the Jin family came over and bought more than 20 acres of fertile land. With your 200 taels of silver, If you want to buy all the farmland, it may not be easy.”

Pei Yu smiled lightly and said: "I don't ask for fertile land. If it's not fertile enough, I can find someone to fertilize it, raise it and then plant crops. If you have some land, you can help me buy it as much as possible. It's not too remote. It's best to be away from the Jin family." For those whose land is closer, village chief, you also know that I have good relations with their families. When we have land, we can ask them to help grow some crops."

"It would be easier if we didn't ask for fertile land." The village chief relaxed his brows, "Then I wonder what price Mr. Pei wants to buy it at?"

"It's five taels of silver per acre, I don't know the price of the land, cough cough cough! Cough cough cough..." After Pei Yu said this, he coughed rapidly, which made the village chief feel distressed.

A good child, as handsome as a god descended to earth, how could he suffer from an incurable disease like stridor?
He didn't break the casserole anymore and asked what was going on. The main reason was that he was reluctant to let Pei Yu talk too much, otherwise he would cough again, so he just collected the money in front of him.

"Don't worry, Mr. Pei, I will take care of this matter for you tomorrow."

"Thank you, village chief."

Pei Yu bowed and thanked him, and after saying a few words of greeting, he excused himself and left. His back looked as if a gust of wind could blow him down.

Ou Shi pondered: "Master, Mr. Pei asked for something closer to the Jin family's fields. Didn't he just want to buy the Tan family's fields? Tan Dahu is a hunter and has no business farming, and Liu Xianhua is a lazy person. Their family's land has long been exhausted. It’s deserted. How much fertilizer do you need to put in to cultivate the land after you buy it?”

"It's none of our business how much fertilizer we throw. Mr. Pei has asked me, the village chief, to help me solve the rumors of a haunted house. No matter how much we do, our family has to help. If we even do this, If I don’t have any credit, who will elect me as the village chief next year? Okay, I’ll go out for a walk and eat, and take a look at Tan Dahu’s injuries.”

The village chief took a few bites of rice, picked up the dry chimney and walked out.

The reason why the village chief can be the village chief is not only because of his age, but also because everyone in the neighboring villages knows that he always speaks with spit and nails. He is an honest person and is willing to listen to him. If Pei Yu asks him to do something, If you agree but don't complete it, won't you ruin your credibility?
