Chapter 104

"My surname is Hu, this Zhuangzi belongs to my family!" The young man is the young master of the Hu family, Hu Yiming.The Hu family has several properties nearby. He has been around recently, and has already found buyers for other properties. Only the largest property in Daoxiang Village has not yet been settled. He heard the tenants say that someone came to see Zhuangzi. He rushed over in a hurry.

"What do you think of this Zhuangzi, sir?" Hu Yiming asked impatiently: "If you are satisfied, I can give you a discount, only nine thousand and five, and we can write the contract now!"

He immediately got 500 taels cheaper, and He Tao became even more hesitant when he heard this. He couldn't wait to get rid of it, how cruel that senior official must be!
"To tell you the truth, we are very satisfied, but..." Fu Quan said awkwardly.

Hu Yiming has heard this kind of scene no less than ten times recently, and he said with a bit of dumbfounding: "Mr., you were also deceived by rumors. You also heard that I moved my family to avoid disaster, right?"

Seeing that he opened up, Fu Quan no longer hid it, nodded and said, "It is indeed because of this!"

"You also heard that our 'little master' offended a high official?"

"Yes!" Fu Quan said and looked at Luo Baocheng. Luo Baocheng's expression brightened, and he hurriedly asked, "Is there any misunderstanding?"

"It's not just a misunderstanding, we've all followed the path of villains!" Hu Yiming was so angry when he mentioned this matter: "That guy Huang Yaozu is simply too black-hearted!"

"Is this matter related to Uncle Huang?"

"The thing is like this. The court conquered the Gaoliang country in the west, and now it has become one of our Daqi's prefectures. There are many more official positions. I am going to take office in a month. My old parents have passed away long ago, and I am alone. I plan to settle down in Gaoliang and never come back, so I have to sell my ancestral property!" Hu Yiming took out a roll of gold silk and unfolded it carefully, Let Fu Quan read the above text, which actually reads "Hu Yiming, Jinhuai Town, Nanshan County, is hereby appointed as the post of county school teacher in Xiping County, which belongs to Gaoliang Prefecture, and he is ordered to take up the post within 30 days after receiving the order. Chengyuan 27 May [-], [-]." Hu Yiming took out another seal and showed them the engraving on it, which contained his name and position.

"Congratulations, congratulations!" Fu Quan bowed and raised his back before asking, "Then why did you..."

"I am in a hurry to take office, and I can't wait to deal with the property through the dental office. The Huang family is related to my cousin's family. Who knew that Huang Yaozu saw me in a hurry to sell, and kept pushing down the price without any regard for the relatives. I naturally If I didn't want to, the rumor about me 'offending the high official and avoiding disaster with my family' spread to several towns the next day. No need to think about it, I know that Huang Yaozu wants to force me to sell the property at a low price!" Hu Yiming said while Putting away the letter of appointment and official seal, he said frankly: "If it wasn't for handling the property and rushing to take up the post, I really don't want to just let him go!"

Huang Dahu is just an ordinary big family, and the people don't fight with the officials. If Hu Yiming hadn't taken up the post locally, he wouldn't have dared to make such a trick if he had ten guts. To become an official is also to leave the Shunan Mansion, so there is nothing to be afraid of.

Huang Dahu's reputation for being stingy spread throughout Liushu Town. Huang Yaozu's behavior of throwing money at the Shangyuan Festival won a lot of good reviews. Unexpectedly, he was actually worse than his father, and he actually made this kind of person who is not on the stage Shame!Fu Quan and others all thought at the same time—it is true that one generation is "stronger" than the previous generation!

"If you are satisfied, sir, we can go directly to the county government office to complete the transfer procedures, and you can also ask the officials and gentlemen, and then you will know that I have not lied to you!" Hu Yiming took out a few more pieces of paper: "These are the deeds of other properties I sold, you can take a look."

One is from the Hu family's ancestral house, the other is from a certain hilltop in Jinhuai Town, and a few other small villages nearby, all of which were written in the last few days.Luo Baocheng took a glance and saw that the sellers were all well-known and well-known households nearby, he spotted a familiar name with his sharp eyes, pointed to one of the Zhuangzi's deeds and asked sharply: "Is this bought by Mr. Chen from Erdong Village? !"

He monopolized the contract business in Liushu Town. Chen Dahu bought a Zhuangzi without making any noise, but he didn't know it. Luo Baocheng couldn't accept it for a while.

"Well, his name was written on the deed, but the land deed was transferred to his daughter, saying it was a dowry." Hu Yiming shared a gossip.

Only then did Luo Baocheng come to his senses, that is to say, the sale was made through the Yamen in Jinhuai Town.

Chen Dahu is only a precious daughter of Chen Yun, but instead gave most of his money and property to Chen Yun as a dowry.

Chen Yun, the precious daughter of Chen Dahu, was married to Jinhuai Town at the beginning of the year. When she got married, it caused quite a stir. The team of nearly a hundred people sent her to marry, and the dowry was so generous that many people still talked about it until now. Speaking of marrying a daughter-in-law will always mention that wedding.

"Sir, what do you think?" Hu Yiming didn't care to gossip with Luo Baocheng, and asked Fu Quan eagerly: "Xu Zhixian can testify for me!"

Fu Quan looked at Fu Shi and asked his opinion. Fu Shi originally planned to buy it, so naturally he would not object and nodded.He Tao also felt that this person didn't seem to be lying, so he nodded to Fu Quan to express his agreement. They were afraid of offending high officials, but Huang Dahu was actually just a rich commoner, so there was nothing to be afraid of!
"Is there still time to go to the county government at this time?" Fu Quan asked Hu Yiming.

"No problem, I'll definitely make it in time!"

The two cars drove quickly one after the other, and arrived at the county government office of Nanshan County an hour later.There was no need to ask the yamen clerk, because there was a bulletin board at the entrance of the county yamen, and the notice posted on it clearly posted the hand-copied version of Hu Yiming's letter of appointment.There are not many scholars in Nanxian County, and even the whole prefecture in southern Sichuan, who have achieved fame, and even fewer rely on fame to seek employment. Hu Yiming is the only one in Nanshan County, and the county magistrate almost regards him as his own. He came to publicize his political achievements, no, he heard that there were rumors that were not good for him, so he put up a notice at the gate of the county government office, and advertised it widely to rectify his name.

When Hu Yiming saw the notice, he was even more surprised than Fu Shi and the others. He hurriedly went to see the magistrate. After he came out, he kept praising the magistrate for being wise.

Now that the misunderstanding has been resolved, the transaction will naturally proceed smoothly!
Fu Shi happily took out the silver ticket, and then Hu Yiming realized that the driver of the car was the owner of the buyer. He smiled awkwardly at Fu Shi and said, "I'm sorry just now!"

"It's okay, that's how I am." Fu Shi didn't mind.Who would treat him as a rich man with his attire!Unless someone with clairvoyance can see the banknotes in his arms!
The transfer procedure was done very quickly, and Fu Shi got the title deed with the red seal before he settled down in the office, and then solemnly handed it to He Tao and said, "Daughter-in-law, Zhuangzi is ours!"

Hu Yiming fell again - it turns out that this little lady is not a maid but a mistress!
"Mr. Hu, can I trouble you to help me with something?" He Tao smiled at Hu Yiming and asked, "Can you sell us the records of Zhuangzili in the past?"

"Records?" Hu Yiming is a typical scholar who doesn't know anything about general affairs, so who knows what records Zhuangzi needs!

"For example, who rented Zhuangzi's land and how much was the rent..."

Although the transaction was done happily, but also because it was too happy, many details have not been clearly understood after the payment of money and goods.Every piece of land in Zhuangzi is rented out, who rents it, how long is the lease period, how much is the rent, is it grain or cash, when is the rent paid, and what is the yield per mu?A whole host of questions remain unanswered.

"This record should exist. It is stored in the accounting room. I didn't bring it out with me. You came from Liushu Town, anyway. You are going to pass by my house when you go back. How about going to pick it up with me?" Hu Yiming asked.

Seeing that it was getting late, He Tao responded quickly, and a group of people rushed to Hu's house.

Coincidentally, as soon as I arrived at the gate of Hu's house, I met a group of people surrounded by a young couple coming out of it.The age of this couple is similar to that of Fu Shi and He Tao. The man is about 23 or [-], and the woman looks like [-] or [-]. She also seems to be pregnant, with a slightly protruding belly.

"Second Brother Gu, Second Sister Gu, why are you here?" Hu Yiming went up to greet the couple, pointed to Fu Shi and the others and said, "Coincidentally, your two families will be neighbors in the future, and they bought Daoxiang Village The Zhuangzi here is just across a village road from the sesame oil village you bought."

"This is great! I thought you were in such a hurry, and Huang Yaozu was making things difficult for you. I was afraid that it would not be easy for you to find a suitable buyer." The man Hu Yiming called Gu Erge said sincerely: "Can you It's great that it went smoothly!"

Hu Yiming also showed a sincere smile, took Gu Er Ge's hand and said: "Come on, just right, let me introduce to you, this old gentleman's surname is Fu, these two are his nephew Fu Shi and nephew-in-law Fu Xiaosister-in-law, This is from Luoya, they are all from Liushu Town, and you are from the same town as Gu Ersao!" He said to Fu Shi and others: "Gu Ersister is the only daughter of Chen Dahu's family in Erdong Village!"

After Hu Yiming's introduction, the two parties knew each other by their names.

The young husband and wife of the Gu family is called Gu Cheng, the second son of Gu Dahu in Jinhuai Town. He and Hu Yiming are classmates, but they are still talented in the same year, but they are not as talented as Hu Yiming when he was young. He won the Juren, so far he is still just a scholar.

He originally said that he would not get married if he failed the exam, but he still failed to get what he wanted even after taking the exam several times. Under the strong intervention of his parents, he settled down last year with the only daughter of Chen Dahu's family——Chen Yun, who just became a relative at the beginning of the year. , After getting married, it can be regarded as harmony.
