The next day, Old Man Yun got up early in the morning, carried the silver in his arms, and walked to the village chief's house.

"Uncle, have you eaten? Where are you going? ”

"Eat, go to the village chief, something is wrong"

"Then uncle, you're busy, I'll go to the field." A man from the village saw Old Man Yun and greeted him warmly.

"Old Yuntou, why don't you go to the field, where is this?"

"Hey, you old boy, let you call me Old Man Yun, you have to call me Old Yuntou, it's really looking for a fight, I'll go to the village chief's house, there's something wrong." Old man Yun looked at the black-faced old man who was carrying a hoe and wearing coarse linen clothes opposite, and replied with an unhappy look in his eyes.

"Okay, okay, Old Man Yun, I won't talk to you, you can go to the village chief's house quickly." The black-faced old man had an expression of what you say, and after greeting him, he smiled, and walked to the ground with a hoe.

There were many people in the countryside who came out early in the morning to work in the fields, and they met several people from the village along the way to greet Old Man Yun.

Finally walked to the village chief's house, the village chief's house is the first brick house in Yunjia Village, larger than the Yun family's house, located in the middle of Yunjia Village, with four sons and two daughters.

The eldest son, Yunjiang, married his wife, and Wu had three sons.

The second son, Yunhe, married a wife, and Wang had two sons and a daughter.

The third son, Yunhu, married a wife, and Chen had a son and a daughter.

The fourth son, Yunhai, has not yet married a wife due to his young age.

The youngest daughter, Yun Baozhu, is only fifteen years old and has not yet married.

Yun Lijuan, the eldest daughter of the village chief's family, has been married, and a family of more than a dozen people lives together, and the house must be big, which is not enough to live.

"Oe, is your father at home?" Old man Yun walked to the door of the village chief's house, just in time to see the village chief's eldest son come out, and hurriedly asked.

"Uncle, my father is at home, and I will lead you over." Yun Jiang saw that it was Old Man Yun, and hurriedly led him into the house again.

The grandfather of the village chief is a brother to the grandfather of the old man Yun, the village chief Yun Zetian is a cousin to the old man Yun, and there is nothing wrong with the son of the village chief calling the old man Yun an uncle.

"Dad, my uncle is looking for you."

"Why is the eldest brother here, what's the matter?" When the village chief Yun Zetian heard his eldest son's words, he came out of the room and saw the old man Yun in the courtyard asking loudly.

"I want to buy land, you can see if there is one."

"How much land does Big Brother want to buy?"

"I want to buy thirty-five acres of fertile land, fifteen acres are closer to my family's land, and the other twenty acres, you look at it, these twenty acres of land are for the clan."

"Hey, how did the eldest brother buy so much land, does the family have enough money, and he won't empty the family, right?" The village chief was taken aback, he was not happy by the twenty acres of land given to the clan, but was worried that Lao Yuntou would have no money and would not empty his family.

"Don't worry about this, I must have the money to come to you, the boss went up the mountain a few days ago, and luckily picked a wild ginseng of the last year, and yesterday I borrowed an ox cart for you, and asked your sister-in-law to take the boss to sell the ginseng, and there is this amount after selling." Old Man Yun stretched out three fingers and shook them in front of the village chief.

The village chief gasped, looked at Old Man Yun in surprise and asked in a low voice, "Three hundred taels?" ”

Old man Yun nodded.

"That's good, that's good, congratulations big brother." The village chief congratulated with a smile.

"Hey, this is also luck, this is not thinking about a little silver, our Zhuang family, or the field is reliable, before the third middle school Xiucai did not give the clan people to hang the field, just have this opportunity, you help me see, how much does it cost, how to get it over there in the county government?"

"Okay, big brother, you came to ask today, we don't have a landlord surnamed Lin in our village, I heard his housekeeper say that his son is doing business in Fucheng and has made a lot of money, and he wants the forest landlord to enjoy happiness in the past."

"Yesterday morning, the next person in the family came to me and told me that he was going to sell the family's 500 acres of land, this is not that he has settled in our village for many years, and he will give priority to letting people in our village buy it, and no one will buy him again."

"If the eldest brother wants to buy it, I will let the second brother go to the forest landlord's house and ask his housekeeper."

"Okay, trouble brother."

"Hey, they are all their own brothers, what's the trouble, besides, the land that the eldest brother bought, there are still twenty acres in the clan, and our clan uncles must be happy."

"Second, second, you go to the forest landlord's house across the river and tell his housekeeper that someone in our village has bought his land."

"Hey, Dad, I'll go." A man of about twenty-five or sixteen came out of the room, answered and went out of the house.

After about half a cup of tea, the second child led a middle-aged man wearing a blue silk shirt and a little fat into the courtyard.

"Dad, I invited Steward Lin."

"Village Chief Yun, I don't know who wants to buy my master's land?"

Steward Lin followed the second child into the hall of the village chief's house, and asked with an arch of his hand to the village chief.

"Steward Lin, this is my cousin, my cousin wants to buy the land in your mansion, you see your price ......," the village chief introduced to Steward Lin.

"I wonder how many acres of land this old man wants to buy?"

"Thirty-five acres, I don't know if it's feasible?"

Steward Lin pondered for a moment and said: "This is a bit little, but our lord explained, thirty-five acres is thirty-five acres, the market price is eight taels of silver and one acre of fertile land, look at a village, count seven taels and one mu with you, you see that it is feasible, if you can, let's take a look at the land, and you can go to the county government to transfer." ”

Old man Yun has planted a field for half his life, and he knows how much good land is an acre, this price is already good, if he goes to the tooth store to buy, he will get at least eight taels of silver per mu, and it may not be in a village, so he immediately responded: "Yes, yes." ”

"Then let's take a look at the ground, and if we can, we can finish it today."

Old man Yun followed Steward Lin to look at the land, picked the nearest place of fifteen acres from his own land, and chose a field of twenty acres, the grain of the forest landlord's family was also collected, and told Old Man Yun that after the grain was harvested, the land would belong to the Yun family.

Outside the county yamen, Yun Yi carefully folded the title deed that had just been stamped and put it in his arms, which cost more than 200 taels of silver, but it had to be put away.

They took the Lin family's car back to Yunjia Village, at the entrance of Yunjia Village, Yun Yi and the village chief got out of the car, thanked and parted ways with Steward Lin.

Yun Yi walked home with the village chief.

"Uncle, you and Aunt Guixiang came to my house for dinner with their children in the evening, my father can explain, I must come, I will go back first, I must come in the evening." Yun Yi sent the village chief to the door of the house, said a little and ran away, for fear that the village chief would not agree.

"Hey, this kid, I didn't say no, what are you doing running so fast, there is a dog behind you, ...... the village chief suddenly reacted halfway through speaking, saying that there was a dog behind him.

"Bah, I'm old, and my brain is not bright."

After Yun Yi finished talking to the village chief, he trotted all the way home, from the old man Yun to find the village chief, to go to see the location of the field with Steward Lin, and then to Yun Yi to take the car to the county to transfer the household, it has been more than half a day, and it is already late in the afternoon.

When they got home, Old Man Yun and Mrs. Zhao had been waiting at home for a long time, and when they saw Yun Yi coming back, they hurriedly asked, "Boss, how is it?" Has the title deed been completed? ”

"It's done, it's done, Dad." After speaking, he took out the title deed from his arms and handed it to Old Man Yun.

Old man Yun looked at the two land deeds, felt much more relieved, gave one of them to Mrs. Zhao, signaled to put it away, and put the other one in his arms.
