The county Yawen master, who took Tang Yaorong and Li Zheng's benefits, was also in a very good mood at the moment.

So before Li Zheng finished speaking, he waved his hand: "Since the people in your village have agreed, then sell that hill to that family." ”

When Li Zheng heard this, it was exactly what they wanted, so he continued: "The people in our village unanimously decided to sell that piece of mountain to that family for one tael of silver and seven acres, but although that land belongs to our Peach Blossom Village,

But this is a big deal about buying and selling mountains, and we have to ask if Master Wen is not, if you don't agree, we don't dare to buy and sell privately.

If Master Wen agrees, please send a few officials to go with us, and we will go to measure the mountain together.

Let the officials and the villagers work together to give us a testimony, and when the time comes, we will also sign the documents together, so we don't have to toss back and forth. ”

After listening to what Mr. Wen was talking about for a long time, he asked slowly: "Who is the person who bought the mountain?" Why can't I think about it so much, I want to buy that barren mountainous land. ”

Tang Yaorong stood up a little embarrassed and said to Master Wen: "It was my ignorant little niece who made Master Wen smile." ”

Master Wen didn't expect that it would be someone who had a relationship with Tang Yaorong, so he choked hard.

I thought of the time when the Jia servant brought the burrito over and said that the burrito was made by Tang Yaorong's family, so he boldly guessed and asked: "The person who bought the mountain and the person who made the burrito are together." ”

In fact, what Master Wen wants to ask is that they are the same person.

Tang Yaorong nodded: "Master Palindrome is my little niece's daughter." ”

When Master Wen heard that it was indeed the same person, his expression was a little surprised.

However, while being surprised, he also nodded: "In this case, the official will go with you, go and see for yourself, and after the measurement is done, then print a copy of the document, and it will be appropriate." ”

So Master Wen personally came to Peach Blossom Village with Li Zheng and them.

Master Wen probably knew that if he went directly to Peach Blossom Village, it might bring some unnecessary trouble, so he went directly to the mountain that needed to be measured with Li Zheng and them.

Tang Xiaosu and the others Tang Yaorong and Li Zheng waited for Li Zheng and Li Zheng After they left, they estimated the time, and when they were about the same, they were already waiting on the mountain early.

When they heard Li Zheng and Tang Yaorong introduce that the middle-aged man was the county government's Master Wen, Tang Xiaosu and the others knelt down in unison and wanted to kowtow to the county lord.

Master Wen waved his hand: "I'm just here to help you measure the mountain, you don't need to make such a big gift." ”

For Tang Xiaosu, who knelt to his parents and reluctantly knelt down to the county lord at this moment, her good impression of the county lord increased by one point at this moment.

She thought that this county lord should be a confused official, but she didn't expect it, but she just didn't know if it was her nature or her hypocrisy.

The county lord stomped left and right, eyeing everything on the hill within his sight.

He wanted to see what was strange about this mountain, so that the niece and nephew of the old man could buy this barren mountain at any cost.

Obviously, this is not a loss-making business, and Master Wen thinks that the woman who can make that burrito will definitely not be a person who is willing to do a loss-making business, so he looks left and right, wanting to see if there is anything else valuable on this mountain.

Tang Xiaosu said that when the county lord didn't pay attention, he pulled Tang Yaorong aside, and muttered in Tang Yaorong's ear for a while.

Tang Yaorong nodded, indicating that he had grown up, so he came to Master Wen's side.

"Master Wen, some of the materials that my nephew sells breakfast every day come from the village, so my little niece and her family will come up with such a way to buy this barren mountain, and distribute the money to everyone in the village, so that it can be regarded as an indirect return to the people in the village."

Master Wen was stunned, he didn't expect it to be this result.

So he didn't have the mood to observe the mountain anymore, and waved his hand: "Okay, since that's the case, let's start measuring." ”

So next to a villager stood a servant, and next to a servant, there must also be a villager.

The reason for this distribution is that there are villagers in the province, or one of them is a servant, who lies, so that the measured numbers are different.

According to Tang Xiaosu's cut-off of the place they wanted, the measured mountain was about 800 acres, and if it was calculated according to one tael of silver and seven acres of mountainous land, it would only be about 110 taels of silver.

Tang Xiaosu originally prepared one hundred and fifty taels of silver to buy the mountain, but now it seems that he has saved a lot.

However, Tang Xiaosu was a little dissatisfied, and said to Li Zheng: "Grandpa Li Zheng, then measure some more in the deep mountains and buy it for one hundred and fifty taels of silver." ”

Li Zheng was worried about whether Tang Xiaosu's silver was enough, but at this time, Tang Xiaosu said: "Don't be afraid, Grandpa Li Zheng, my uncle lent me some money yesterday, and my uncle also said that if our family's money is not enough, he will also lend it to us." ”

Li Zheng turned his gaze to Tang Yaorong, but he knew that Tang Yaorong's money, every cent, every tael, was used to enter Beijing to catch the exam.

Tang Yaorong nodded at Li Zheng: "Yes, just measure it, if there is not enough, I will help him make up for it."

The county lord listened to the conversation between the three of them, so he looked at the measured servant and nodded slightly at the man.

Those officials knew what their master meant, so when they were only re-measuring, they turned a blind eye and gave Tang Xiaosu a lot of relaxation in the mountainous area.

Originally, it was just an acre of mountainous land, but under the water released by those officials, it became an acre and a half of mountainous land.

In this way, the 1,500 acres of mountainous land that could be bought for 150 taels of silver were bought for about 1,300 acres of mountainous land, which was 350 acres more than they had originally estimated.

The people who came to measure knew that this was deliberately released by the people of the government, but they didn't have any opinions, and they also thought about how to release the water without knowing it.

Now that the officials took the initiative to do this, they were happy, so the officials and the villagers cooperated tacitly one by one.

This mountainous area was blatantly given to Tang Xiaosu and them an extra 350 acres.

Tang Xiaosu and the others saw clearly from the side, and one by one they were like mirrors in their hearts.

Tang Xiaosu summoned Ergouzi and said to Ergouzi: "Ergouzi, you go home and tell my mother, let my mother prepare some more braised meat that was marinated last night, and pack it for the county master and a few officials to take away." “”

Ergouzi just wanted to leave, but Wuyi took the initiative to speak: "I'll go, my speed is faster than Ergouzi's." After speaking, without waiting for Tang Xiaosu to agree, the person had already left.

The speed of Wuyi is indeed very fast, and not long after the measurement, Wuyi hung a big burden and a small burden all over his body, and came to the mountain again.

At this time, the county lord and those officials were also preparing to leave, and Li Zheng and Tang Yaorong were greeting the county lord.

"Brother Wuyi, let's go over together." Tang Xiaosu looked speechless and said.

Wu Yi shook his head: "I'm not going, you and Saburo Shiro go over, I'll wait for you here." ”

As soon as Tang Xiaosu wanted to ask why, he saw that Wuyi's clear eyes were a little more determined, and then he thought of the extraordinaryness of Zhuqing and the three of them, and knew that Wuyi might have deliberately wanted to avoid this county lord, so he didn't persuade much, and went in the direction of the county lord with San Lang Shiro.

When Tang Xiaosu and the others arrived at the county lord's side, they saw Tang Yaorong quietly stuffing a little hard-earned money into the county lord and a few little officials, how much was it, Tang Xiaosu said that she really didn't see it clearly.

Tang Xiaosu looked up at the sky and pretended that he hadn't seen anything.

After the county lord and the officials greeted each other and got everything done, they stepped forward and said to the county lord: "This is the braised pork specially prepared by my mother for the county lord and the officials, which is specially marinated by our family, you taste it first, if you think it is delicious, when you want to eat it in the future, then find my uncle, let my uncle bring us a letter, and we will send you to the yamen at that time." ”

Although it is said that money is easy to do, but in this era, in addition to money, there is power.

In this Fengyun Town, the biggest official is the county lord, so Tang Xiaosu feels that he must hold the thigh of the county lord tightly.

After eating the burritos sent by Li Zheng and Tang Yaorong, Master Wen and the gang of officials also coveted the taste of this braised pork very much, so they accepted it politely.

And Tang Xiaosu and others promised: "If you need help in the future, just go to the yamen to find us." ”

Seeing the county government and a group of them leave, Li Zheng said to Tang Xiaosu with a smile: "Xiao Su girl, you can make a lot of money this time, some burritos and some braised meat, so let the county lord and the villagers put so many hundred acres of mountain water for you." ”

Tang Xiaosu also smiled so much that he couldn't see his eyes, and said modestly: "Isn't this all the help of Grandpa Lizheng?" ”

"Look, look, this kid is kicking his nose in the face." Li Zheng pointed to Tang Xiaosu and the old man Tang and the village doctor Wu beside him and said.

Old Man Tang's face was full of smiles, although there was nothing to grow on this mountain, but it was not a good place.

And the croppers live on the land, mainly on the land, and with these thousands of acres of mountainous land all of a sudden, they can be regarded as small landlords.

So how can Old Man Tang not be happy, this kind of happiness is second only to his eldest son Tang Yaorong winning the promotion.
