Chapter Seventy-Eight: Knowing that the number of people in the village is small, he wants to buy a house and a land
The one in front of them said it was a small forest, but the three of them walked along the road without stopping, and it took nearly a quarter of an hour to arrive.
As soon as I came out of the woods, there was a house in front of me, which seemed to be a village, the village was inaccessible, and the distance between the houses had to be eleven or twelve zhang, and it seemed that there were not many people in this village.
Looking at the scattered houses, Chu Yang nodded, and said to himself: "The houses are sparse and crowded, and they are far away from the noisy and prosperous places, which is really a good place to recuperate and breathe." ”
Chuyang didn't wait for Wen Yannuo and Guantai, and walked straight to the village.
This time Chu Yang didn't plan to be verbose, he went directly to the nearest house to himself, which was a small earthen house with only two rooms, Chu Yang took a deep breath and knocked on the door, and soon the door opened and an old man in his sixties walked out.
Chu Yang bowed to the old man, bent down and saluted, "Xiaosheng begged for mercy." ”
The old man returned the salute and said, "What's the matter with the son?"
"Xiaosheng's family encountered war, the house was burned and the field was occupied, and he had no choice but to wander here, wanting to settle his wealth here, I don't know if there is a house for sale in this village?" Chu Yang lied to the old man.
The old man looked at the group of three people who were gorgeously dressed, and thought that Chu Yang could directly spend money to buy a house after wandering, and said that this must be a rich son.
"It was a coincidence that the reservoir in our county collapsed a while ago, causing a flood, and although my village was not directly covered up, it was also affected by most of it. The old man sighed, stretched out his hand and pointed back to a piece of house on a lower terrain.
The old man's words made Chu Yang very happy, of course, he was not happy that his house was flooded and gloating, he was simply happy that his previous guess was correct.
"Are there any casualties?" Wen Yannuo, who followed later, couldn't help but interject and asked.
"There were no casualties. The old man looked at the three of them with satisfaction, not just blindly pursuing their own residence, but also knowing that they cared about the safety of the people in their village.
"It's great that there are no casualties, so does the old uncle know if there are any houses for rent and sale in the village?" Chu Yang first breathed a sigh of relief before asking.
"My village, said to be a village, is actually only 32 households, which can be regarded as a vast land and sparsely populated, and because of a heavy flood, most of the villagers who are already small have moved away, and there are countless vacant and idle houses. The old man sighed, after this disaster, most of the villages that were already small were almost empty.
At this moment, the sound of footsteps sounded from behind, and Chu Yang and the others looked back and saw a man in his thirties, with a yellow face and a thin body, carrying a load of firewood and humming over.
Before and after the door, the thin man put the firewood on the ground, gasped twice, looked at the three of Chu Yang and asked, "Who are you?"
At this time, the old man introduced the three of Chuyang: "This is my son, Liu San." ”
"Just call me San'er. Liu Sanchong led Chu Yang bowed and said with a smile.
Chu Yang smiled, and said in his heart that the little brother was easy-going, and he also bent down and saluted: "Fang Jie." He pointed to Guantai and said his name to Wen Yannuo one by one.
Later, he told Liu San the purpose of the trip, and the old man also upheld the attitude of helpfulness, and directly asked Liu San to take Chuyang to find it, and Liu San also responded happily: "Okay, everyone, wait a while, I'll pick the firewood into the courtyard first." ”
Chuyang Chong Guantai made a look, Guantai comprehended, and without waiting for Liu San to pick up the firewood, Guantai stepped forward and snatched the firewood, and said directly after picking it on his shoulder: "Third brother rest for a while, I'll come." ”
"How can this be done!" Liu San hurriedly stepped forward to grab it, but he was thin and weak after all, and no matter how he was, he couldn't play Guantai, which was at the peak of the first order, and in an instant, Guantai carried firewood into the courtyard.
Seeing that Guantai had already put the firewood in the courtyard, Liu San said to Guantai embarrassedly: "I'm tired of chasing my brother." ”
Guantai's move directly made the old man and Liu San have a good impression of Chuyang and his party.
Chuyang asked Guantai to do this is nothing more than two points, first, as I said earlier, if you live here in the future, maybe you will be a neighbor, and if the relationship is good, you can also have a foil. The second is to sell well, and I hope that I can sincerely help Chuyang find a house later.
"Everyone will be neighbors in the future, and we must help each other. Guantai smiled and waved his hand at Liu San, so that he would not be so polite, and also paved the way for his eldest brother.
"Yes, yes, I'm not polite, as the old saying goes, distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors. Liu San said with a smile.
"Then let's go?" Wen Yannuo is straight, he couldn't stand this polite words, and looking at Chu Yang who had walked for such a long time, he couldn't bear it, and wanted to solve this matter quickly and let Chu Yang rest and rest early.
Liu San said goodbye to his father first, and then led the three of Chuyang to the village.
After some investigation, it turned out that six of the 32 families had already shelved their houses for many years and gone to live in the county seat for a long time, and there were only 26 permanent ones, and all of them were young and strong because of the flood, and they all had to move away because of the flood.
Now those who are still here are basically lonely old people or poor households like Liu San, and there are only six families left.
Chu Yang, who got the news, almost lost his joy, and then gave birth to a bold idea, which attracted Liu San to ask: "There are famous people in the village, but they are still in the village?"
"Yes, yes, yes. Liu San came forward and said to Chu Yang.
"Can you bother the third brother, and when everyone in the village is there, let him call everyone in the village to come here?" Chu Yang said to Liu San.
"It's just renting and buying a house, why do you want to call all the villagers?" asked Liu San puzzled.
"There is a third brother Lao. Chu Yang didn't explain to him, just asked him to call someone.
Liu San thought about it, but he really couldn't figure it out, but since Chu Yang said so, then he would do it well, and he said in his heart that he would be present at that time anyway, and he would know it as soon as he heard it.
"Okay, I'll go and I'll be back. Liu Sanchong and Chuyang arched their hands.
When Liu San walked away, Wen Yannuo stepped forward and asked Chu Yang: "It's just a house, why do you want the whole village to come?"
Wen Yannuo even thought of Chu Yang's explanation of his identity at the Changma Town Market a few days ago, and thought to himself, does Chu Yang even have to explain to the people if he even rents a house?
"Yes, big brother, why do you want to do this?" Guantai couldn't figure out what Chu Yang's thoughts were, and asked Wen Yannuo closely.
Chu Yang smiled and sat down, and after sitting for a while, he still felt uncomfortable, so he lay down, smelling the grass and smiling, but he didn't speak.
Guantai saw that Chu Yang didn't answer, and didn't ask again, anyway, he would know later, and he was not in a hurry, so he pouted and did the same, and lay down with Chu Yang.
Wen Yannuo looked at Chu Yang who was lying down, thinking that Chu Yang was too tired after walking for such a long time, and he didn't care to ask why, so he squatted aside and fanned Chu Yang with his hand.
The three of them chatted without a word on the grass, and it didn't take much effort to call Liu San, who went to call people, and led a group of people to the three of them in Chuyang.
"Brother Fang, everyone is here. Liu Sanchong, who was lying before and after, said.
Chuyang, who was in a slightly higher position, stood up and touched the soil, and swept the crowd, not to mention that there were fifty or sixty people, Liu San was simple, it is estimated that it was because of Chuyang's sentence 'everyone is here at noon', Liu San brought the whole village that could walk and move.
Chu Yang stood on a high place, bowed to the crowd and said: "Xiaosheng Fangjie, when I first arrived in your place, I have seen my father and fellow villagers."
"I was originally a native of Qingyun County, and I learned that the village was affected by the flooding of the embankment, resulting in the destruction of the house and the inability to live, seeing that the people were displaced, and it was really unbearable to live in a dangerous house for a long time. Chu Yang looked around at the crowd and said a lie that was not harmful.
The crowd, which was originally quiet, whispered again in shock after Chu Yang's words.
Guantai and Wen Yannuo, who didn't know in advance, were also taken aback, the three of them had originally discussed that they would rent a house here, how could they suddenly buy a house? Then buy it, and even buy all the houses in the whole village! How could Wen Yannuo and Guantai not be shocked?
No matter how rich you are, you can't make it like this!
Of course, the two of them were very familiar with current affairs, and they did not express their surprise in person, but they just looked at each other and stopped talking, and they saw that they had any mood swings on their faces.
After Chu Yang finished speaking, an old man over sixty years old walked out and saluted Chu Yang.
Chu Yang looked at Liu San inquiringly, Liu San nodded, it seems that this is the more famous one in Liu San's village.
After confirming, Chu Yang returned the salute to the old man and asked, "Does the old man have any questions?"
"Although my village is affected by floods, it is not serious, and Fang Gongzi has a kind heart to help the people, so it is better to help those who need help more than me. The old man was kind-hearted and nodded and said.
Chu Yang watched the old man take two steps back and forth, and after determining his satisfactory state of mind, he stretched out two fingers and said: "There are two reasons, although I have a little gold and silver, I want to help the people very much, but I have more than enough heart and not enough, what I can do is to do some good deeds for the villagers in this village, and this is one of them." I live in Changma Town, Qingyun, and I have long heard that the villagers in my village are simple, and I am good friends with Liu San, and my friend's village is in trouble, how can I sit idly by?
Chu Yang said this not only because he could achieve his goal, but also because he wanted to help Liu Sanyi, who was kind and simple.
From a short period of contact, you can roughly figure out a person's character, Liu San's family only has an old father, and the person is small and thin, so he must be bullied a lot on weekdays.
Selling personal favors to Liu San is to show that Liu San also has friends, and to show that his friends are generous, they must be either rich or powerful, and they can't be bullied casually!
Sure enough, after Chu Yang finished saying this, a few people looked at Liu San with shocked eyes, and when Chu Yang glanced at these people, those people quickly lowered their heads and didn't dare to look at Chu Yang, showing that they were thieves!
