Chapter 442: Repaying the Lord's Favor
"Uh..." Bai Dashan was stunned for a moment, and quickly pulled up his sleeve to wipe the corners of his eyes, and said with a smile: "Auntie, is it possible that I am crying for joy?"

"Oh...Is that so? Okay." Bai Tao narrowed her eyes and smiled happily, saying, "Then next time you are happy, don't cry. Just be happy."

Bai Dashan knew that the aunt was teasing him, and he immediately grinned: "Hey, I'll listen to you."

At this time, Bai Xiaofu brought the cake over and asked the question in his mind: "Village Chief, I understand giving things to the residents, but why do you have to give them money?"

You don't have to give so much to ask for good luck. The minimum amount is ten taels of silver.

There are quite a lot of people in the three cities of Junji Town, You County and Ancheng combined.

Bai Dashan: "On such a happy day, why do you have so many questions? Do you have a hundred thousand whys?"

After all the talk, Bai Dashan still gave an answer: "Of course, it is to make our aunt very blessed, and let the people know how good our aunt is."

"You see, after this incident, everyone will speak well of my aunt. If someone else takes her away someday, they will also miss my aunt all the time."

Bai Taoxin said, is it possible that the purpose of giving silver is to stimulate consumption?
Bai Dashan babble a lot, noticed Bai Tao's expression, and asked carefully: "What's wrong, aunt, am I wrong?"

"Yes, of course. Dashan, you are right."

Bai Tao nodded in agreement and added: "This is one of the reasons. Another reason is that it can promote consumption."

"Yes, I didn't think of that." Bai Dashan was full of admiration, his eyes full of light: "Auntie, you are really amazing..."

Bai Tao giggled and pointed at Bai Dashan: "You, you're overacting."

"Hey, auntie, I'm not acting. This is what I really think."

Bai Dashan: "If you don't believe me, ask the villagers."

As he said this, he turned his head to look at the others and said loudly: "Fellow villagers, what do you think, is our aunt the smartest, the most powerful, and the best?"

"Yes!"

"Of course!"

"It has to be."

"Others don't know how much they envy us for having an aunt."

"That's right, even if others have aunts, they can't compare to our aunt."

"Our great aunt is extremely smart!"

When Bai Tao heard this, she immediately waved her hands and said, "Smart is fine, but being absolutely brilliant is not."

Before, the villagers would not understand what she meant, but recently, people who came to Taohua Village had watched a lot of videos and some of the jokes and laughter collections given by Bai Tao, so they naturally understood what she meant.

Everyone couldn't help but laugh.

The Baijiabao caravan is a wealthy and powerful family. It is naturally not going to be such a simple thing for them to celebrate Bai Tao's birthday for the first time.

At this time, lion dancing and various acrobatics appeared in the city, which made the residents, who were already excited by the big blessing bag, cheer even more.

I don’t know who started it, but someone was hanging the lucky bag around his neck with a rope, looking very proud.

Of course, the various coupons in the lucky bag have been properly placed.

Many outsiders were envious when they saw it.

"It's so enviable that you have such a lord."

It was obvious that he was not a local. The passers-by stopped immediately and said proudly: "Let me tell you, the goodness of our lord cannot be fully described in three days and three nights."

There were also outsiders who murmured with envy: "It would be great if we also had a lord like this. I heard that you were not like this before..."

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by the residents of the city. "What are you thinking? The lord is ours."

"You outsiders, don't have any stupid ideas."

"If you come here to do business honestly, then we welcome you. If you have other intentions, leave our Ancheng (You County) as soon as possible!"

Although people in Ancheng and Youxian were proud of their clever move, they were also afraid that others would replicate it.

There is no need for Taohua Village to send any warning, they take the boundary marker more seriously than anything else.

They had finally obtained such an identity and had such a lordship. They had lived a peaceful and good life for a few days. If the boundary marker was stolen, wouldn't it make them seem useless?

Now, when people heard that others were planning to copy it, people in Ancheng and Youxian were more excited than anyone else.

Although they were warned, those people still thought, what's the problem? You are allowed to tinker around, but we are not allowed to live a good life? !

However, some people's hometowns were too far away from Taohua Village, and there was no border between them. Some of them were not even Jin people, so stealing the boundary markers was useless, so they gave up in disappointment.

The various acrobatics were extremely lively, and the radio on the city wall occasionally played festive songs.

What good luck is coming, today is a good day, the vast horizon is my love...

When they met someone who could sing, the people would sing along at the top of their lungs.

No one would worry about being looked at strangely by others because the people next to them are also singing.

This lively atmosphere also ignited some merchants from the tribe who came to trade. They held hands and danced to the accompaniment of the songs on the radio...

The difference between Ancheng and You County before and after the change of ownership is huge, so the gratitude to Taohua Village is the deepest.

On the streets, words like "Long live the lord", "Live the lord as long as the Southern Mountains" and "The lord is my family's benefactor" could be heard from time to time.

As night fell, colorful lights lit up one by one, and lanterns were also lit one by one. Outside the city, only a bang was heard, followed by many bangs.

A burst of firework first bloomed into a huge flower, followed by countless fireworks exploding in the sky.

Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple gathered in the sky. The fireworks came in a variety of styles, illuminating the night that had just turned dark.

At that time, fireworks were also called pyrotechnics, and only the rich and powerful could afford to set them off, and there were strict class restrictions.

There are strict regulations on what styles of items officials can display and how long they can be displayed.

The people present had never seen fireworks like this before, and they were so big and beautiful. The exploding fireworks were colorful and the patterns were vivid. They were all stunned for a moment.

"this?"

"It's so beautiful!"

“Is this a firework?”

“I have never seen such beautiful fireworks.”

The outsiders, who were already envious, became even more envious because they discovered that many class restrictions did not exist in the territory under the jurisdiction of Taohua Village.

Some of the spies were stunned. They thought that even the craftsmen in the palace might not be able to make such a gorgeous fireworks display? !

The scholar and his family were also watching the fireworks in their own yard.

Perhaps it was because the fireworks were too beautiful that the woman boldly put her head on the shoulder of the man next to her.

"My husband, I feel like I'm dreaming."

The scholar smiled, put his hand on his wife's shoulder, and said firmly: "I will study hard and repay the lord's kindness."

It’s the third last day of 2024.
