"Then thank you Sixth Uncle Sun. Don't know when to sign the contract and go through the formalities? Ruoshui asked.

Uncle Sun Liu thought for a moment, and then said, "Go now." Let's go to Lizheng's house, I'll invite Zhang Qiye to Lizheng's house, go back and let Lizheng be a witness, pay the money with one hand and the contract with the other. ”

Ruoshui was happy, because the land would be hers soon.

"That's good, that's good, it's great to be able to go through the formalities today!" Ruoshui said.

The sixth uncle thought for a while, and then said, "Erya, I heard that you have made a fortune recently, how can you only buy these twenty acres of land?" Lao Liu's family also has ten acres of land to sell, so it's better for you to buy it together! ”

Hearing this, Ruoshui was very surprised.

That old lady Liu loves the land as much as her life, and for her, the land is used to make money. With the land to grow crops, you can make a steady stream of wealth.

There was a time when Old Man Liu was dying of illness, and the family didn't have a penny to ask for a doctor. She was reluctant to sell an acre of land to ask Old Man Liu for a doctor. Liu Danian proposed to sell the land, but was reprimanded by Mrs. Liu.

But why sell the land now?

"Are you sure that Lao Liu's family wants to sell land?" Ruoshui asked.

Sixth Uncle Sun nodded: "Of course it's confirmed, yesterday Liu Dazhu personally went to my house to find me, saying that he wanted to sell the ten acres of land under the back hillside." How can this be fake? ”

"I don't dare to buy the land of Lao Liu's family. Sixth Uncle Sun, I want these twenty acres of land. Now I will go home and get the money. Ruoshui said.

Sixth Uncle Sun nodded: "Okay, I'll go and prepare the contract." I went back to gather at home. ”

Ruoshui returned home and told Qi Zhuang about buying land.

Five taels of silver for one acre of land, a total of twenty acres of land, one hundred taels of silver.

Two taels of silver were given to Uncle Sun as an informant, and then a piece of pork belly was given to Li Zheng.

Ruoshui went out with the silver ticket, and Qi Zhuang followed. The two of them walked to Lizheng's house together.

When the two of them came to Li Zheng's house, Zhang Qiye and Uncle Sun had already arrived.

After greeting each other, they went to the house and sat down.

Lizheng's daughter-in-law has already made tea for everyone.

"One acre of land is five taels of silver, and Zhang Qiye sold a total of twenty acres of land to Ruoshui, a total of one hundred taels of silver." Sixth Uncle Sun said.

Uncle Sun Liu continued: "This is the land transfer contract, if the two of you have no opinions, you can draw a pledge." ”

Ruoshui's eyes scanned the contract, and then said, "I am illiterate, since I ask Sixth Uncle Sun for help, I can trust Sixth Uncle Sun." Since Uncle Sun said that there is no problem, then I will draw a bet! ”

Uncle Sun smiled happily.

Zhang Qiye also hurriedly said: "Yes, we are all illiterate villagers. Uncle Sun said yes, then it's okay. Let's draw a bet. ”

Ruoshui stretched out his finger and pressed the cinnabar ink, and then pressed the red handprint on the contract.

Zhang Qiye also followed Ruoshui and pressed the red handprint.

The contract was made in duplicate, one for Ruoshui and the other for the yamen, who kept it on behalf of the yamen to avoid future disputes.

Ruoshui took out one hundred taels of silver and handed it to Zhang Qiye, and put away the land deed. The other one was handed over to the county government by Uncle Sun Liu.

Ruoshui stuffed two taels of silver to Uncle Sun Liu.

Uncle Sun didn't want to live or die, he shirked it many times, and only accepted it in the end.

As for this season's grain, Ruoshui still plans to let Zhang Qiye harvest it himself.

Generally, after the title deed is signed, the land and the crops grown on it are owned by the purchaser.

But Ruoshui knew that Zhang Qiye's family was more difficult, and it was not easy for this crop to grow so big. If the water is good, let Zhang Qiye harvest this season's crops.
