After rebirth, the Queen and I are on the run.

Chapter 254: Picking up leaks and digging new wells

"Hey, thank you Dong Xue." Grandpa Qin hurried back to find the head of the third village.

Surprisingly, Mr. Wu was still there. After seeing him, he said happily: "Brother Qin, you are back. We are all waiting for you. Get in the car and go back to the village. After all, we came here together."

But in my heart, I wanted to chop Grandpa Qin... The Qin family was so vicious. They secretly sold it to the three villages and gathered the villagers in the three villages. This made him, the village leader, lose half of his supporters and almost became a general without soldiers!

The head of the third village did not dare to speak, but he looked at Grandpa Qin expectantly.

Grandpa Qin smiled and nodded to them, and then said to Wu Li, "Chief, Xue Dong's family wants to see the village chief of the third village. We have to go back to the village later. The chief doesn't have to wait for us. Let's go back first."

Wu Lichang gritted his teeth with hatred and wanted to follow him, but Huang Yanglong suddenly appeared like a ghost and shouted: "Wu Lichang, please go back first, lest the weather is too cold and you get sick from the cold. Once this old man Frostbite is a matter of life and death."

Ah this?

Master Huang's mouth is really poisonous, he cursed Wu Li to death so clearly.

Wu Lichang almost died of anger, but Huang Yanglongli ignored him and directly called Grandpa Qin and the others: "Hurry up and follow me to see Xue Zhui. The construction site is busy. Xue Zhui took the time to see you, so there is no delay."

"Hey, hey, we're coming right now." The village chief of the third village almost ran.

Before he ran out of breath, he finally arrived at the construction site... The village chief of Sancun was shocked by the majesty of the construction site: "This, there are too many people here."

I was very worried again: "Then do we still need the people from the three villages?"

"Uncle Qin Wu personally recommends you, and my boss's family will naturally use you." The voice of Dong Xue's family came, and another steward was called: "Ah Yong, read the deed to them."

Xue Yong is the new steward who is only responsible for the construction of the new town. The former manager Xue Xing is still in charge of the new dye.

"You are responsible for road construction and other chores. You are provided with a lunch and thirty-five cents a day. The wages are calculated daily. You must abide by the rules of the Xue family. If you make a mistake, you will be compensated at least, or you will be sent to the government for investigation." Manager Xue Yong finished reading. , asked the village chief of the third village: "If you can do it, sign the deed. If you can't, forget it."

"Yes, yes, yes!" the village head of the third village responded excitedly... It's a job worth more than one or two silver a month, and lunch is included. Anyone who doesn't do it is a fool.

"Okay, sign, press fingerprints, and come to the construction site to work after paying the food tax." Xue Yong took out a box of red ink pad for them.

The village chiefs of the three villages, the introducer Grandpa Qin, and the witness Mr. Zhou, all signed and fingerprinted.

"Okay, you can go back and come back after paying the grain tax." Xue Dong's family evicted people.

But meeting such a big boss in person still made the village chief of Sancun so excited that he walked with a wave of excitement.

While they were floating, a group of people suddenly rushed out from the front to stop them. They turned out to be the Kong family.

The village chief of the third village was shocked. He quickly protected Grandpa Qin behind him, pulled out his woodcutter for self-defense, and shouted: "If you, the Kong family, dare to come here to harm anyone, we will fight with you!"

"We are not here to cause trouble." Kong Lichang, who had a ghostly face, walked out from behind the crowd, looked at Grandpa Qin, and begged: "Village Chief Qin, we are waiting here to ask if your family wants to How many houses and shops does our Kong family own in the town?”

He also explained: "We are in urgent need of money to clear up Kong Zhenshan's crime... Don't worry, our Kong family will sell it to the Qin family at the price before there is no new dye. The shop closest to Si Lifang has a front store and a back house. A total of seven houses only cost one hundred taels of silver."

"There is also a house at the entrance of the town. There is a tea stall in the front and a well in the backyard. It only costs one hundred and twenty taels."

Oh my God, I can count the number of houses with wells in this town on one hand, and the Kong family is actually selling them!
Village Chief Zhou was excited and quickly reached out to touch Grandpa Qin's arm, signaling him to buy it quickly.

But Grandpa Qin asked Kong Lichang: "With such a good house and such an affordable price, there should be many people in Taifeng Town who want to buy it. Why are they so cheap for my Qin family?" Kong Lichang said with a bitter smile: "You also saw it today. My Kong family is not as good as before, and without those two positions, many things will be unsustainable. In this country, there are not many people who can afford it, and those who can afford it will not forget it just because it is cheap. It’s a blessing from the Kong family. You are a family that knows how to repay kindness, and it has great momentum. It’s better to sell it to your family to make a good relationship.”

Said very sincerely.

But Grandpa Qin did not agree immediately: "I will go back and discuss it with my family and give you an answer tomorrow."

"Sure, thank you." Kong Li smiled and left with his family.

Grandpa Qin and the others got on the Zhou family's mule cart.

In the car, the old village chief Zhou said: "Brother Qin, your family can really buy that house. If you miss it this time, it will be difficult to pick up the missing items again."

Another gossip about the Kong family and the Miao family: "The married daughters of the Miao family who married into the Kong family were beaten up, and the Miao family village was also splashed with feces. The Miao family children were so angry that they arrested several Kong family members. My son, I put a sack on him and gave him a good beating..."

The Kong family and the Miao family would have resentments. It was the Kong family who felt that the Miao family had let something slip in the Yamen, which made the county magistrate furious and sent troops to deal with the Kong family.

But the Miao chief and the Miao clerk were wronged. If they helped the Kong family hide it, they would have to go to the county jail that day!

One surname is resentful and angry, and the other surname is wronged and wronged. The relationship between the two surnames becomes worse and worse.

Old Village Chief Zhou: "The Kong and Miao families are in trouble. The Kong family is eager to find helpers, and your family is a good candidate."

Grandpa Qin frowned: "The Kong family is not good people. I have been in the army and I am not ashamed to associate with such people."

The village chief Zhou said happily: "I understand, I understand, Brother Qin is an upright man, but if your family doesn't correct this kind of big leakage, it will be an advantage to other families. Besides, you spend money to buy a house and a shop normally, and you don't owe the Kong family anything." Affection."

After hearing this, Grandpa Qin said: "Thank you, Brother Zhou, for reminding me. I will discuss it after I go back."

"Sure." Old village chief Zhou didn't persuade him any more. After sending Grandpa Qin back to the ghost village, he left with the village chiefs of the three villages.

Then he reminded them in the car: "Brother Qin finally found this job for you in the Xue family. You have to do it seriously. If you dare to cheat and cheat and let down the good intentions of the Qin family, I, Zhoujia Village, will be separated from you." Xi Duanyi!”

The village chief of the third village said hurriedly: "Don't dare, don't dare, we will definitely work honestly."

Old Village Chief Zhou said again: "I'll give you one more thing... This job is just the beginning. Follow the Qin family, and there will be many benefits for you in the future. So our four villages must form a rope to protect the Qin family and follow the Qin family." If you go home, you can make a fortune, do you understand?”

"Understand, understand!" The head of the three villages nodded.

Seeing this, the old village chief Zhou was very satisfied with the results of his deception. After getting on the big village road, he kicked them out of the car: "You can walk back by yourselves, I won't see you off."

"Hey, hey, hey." The village chief of the third village was very obedient.

……

After Grandpa Qin returned to the village, he asked Jiang Dalang to ring the gong to notify everyone to gather at the new water well and talk about paying the grain tax.

The villagers in the ghost village had been waiting for Grandpa Qin to come back. When they heard Jiang Dalang's call, they immediately ran to the new well.

After everyone arrived, Grandpa Qin asked Jiang Dalang to read official documents to everyone.

"Ten taxes are one, ten taxes are one, God bless us, we have a way to survive!" The villagers were excited. Old Man Chai even knelt down and kowtowed to God and the new emperor: "Our new emperor, Mr. That’s great, it gives us a tax cut.”
