Chapter Thirty-Nine: Disappointed

Ye Yu didn't know that she had been targeted, and as soon as she came out of the pawnshop, she went directly through the lively street market to the county office.

This action frightened the guy not far behind her, and she thought that she had been discovered. As a result, after looking at it for a while, I found that the girl was just wandering at the door, so I was relieved.

The common people have a natural awe of the government, and Ye Yu is naturally too. She came to the county government mainly to ask if she and A-Niang could rent land if they lived permanently on Baoshan Island.

This is very necessary.

The old house in the village was owned by her grandmother, so she and A-Niang can be said to be driven away if they were driven away. Even if she and A-Niang live well in Baoshan Island now, she is not at ease, so she thinks about renting a piece of land from the county government and living with A-Niang with peace of mind.

The two officials guarding the door noticed that Ye Yu was wandering outside for a long time, and when they saw that this girl seemed to be really in trouble, one of them came to ask. After learning that Ye Yu wanted to ask about renting land, the official directly brought the person into the office of the county government clerk.

Liu Wenwen, the county magistrate, was slightly older, his face was kind and his voice was also very gentle, facing him Ye Yu was immediately relieved, and the person also relaxed.

"Liu Wenwen, I want to ask if that Baoshan Island near Baishui Bay has a master? Is it possible to rent land? ”

"Baoshan Island?"

Liu Wenwen frowned, and it took a while to dig out the information about Baoshan Island from his memory.

"This ...... Baoshan Island is now ownerless, but if you rent land. I have never heard of renting a single piece of land on the whole island. ”

Ye Yu was a little deflated after hearing this, renting the whole island, it would cost a lot of silver. She has other uses for this thousand taels now, and she can't take much of it.

"So, how much is the whole rent for a year?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Wenwen touched his beard and smiled.

"Silly girl, there is no such thing as renting an island for one year, the minimum is five years. Baoshan Island: I remember that there is a water source on the island, right? If there is an island with a water source, it will be very expensive, and it will cost at least 3,000 taels of silver to rent it for five years. ”

"What if you buy it? How much do you need? ”

Ye Yu was stunned after asking, she couldn't even afford to rent it, but she still wanted to ask to buy it. Fortunately, Liu Wenwen was very patient and didn't think she was a toad and wanted to eat swan meat, so she answered seriously.

"If you want to buy it, it will cost hundreds of thousands of silver according to the number of acres recorded in the scroll."

Ye Yu: "......"

Hundreds of thousands, she probably won't be able to earn that much money in her life.

Soon Ye Yu walked out of the yamen in a huff. The guy who had been waiting outside came in an instant, and the spirit followed all the way.

He thought that this was a country girl, and he would definitely go back to the village in a moment. When the time comes, he will cover his face in a remote place, rush up to knock her unconscious, and then snatch the silver ticket.

Who knew that Ye Yu didn't plan to walk at all, but directly took an ox cart and followed a large number of villagers out of the county.

Guy surnamed Yu: "......"

Is this to follow or not to follow?

There were so many ox cart people, he didn't have the courage to go up and grab them. If the girl got out of the car and went straight into the village, then he would have no chance.

Could it be that just watching a thousand taels of silver fly away like this?!

The man was very unwilling, so he turned around and hired an ox cart to follow him. He wanted to see which village this girl belonged to, and then look for another opportunity. As long as you get that 1,000 taels of silver, you can live comfortably anywhere you go, and the temptation is too great.

The two ox carts were quite far apart, and they passed by Whitewater Bay one after the other and stopped.

After all, Ye Yu has the name of a broom star, and the villagers are still a little taboo about not walking with her, but these Ye Yu no longer care about it. She didn't go to find Aunt Qiu or Aunt Fuhua, but went directly to Lizheng's house.

The biggest official in Baishuiwan is Li Zheng, and he is in charge of all the big and small things in the village.

Speaking of which, he is still a little related to his family, but that relationship is far, far away. But if it's to show closeness, it's okay to call your uncle.

Ye Yu straightened his back and stared at the eyes of the villagers, walked through the village and came to the door of Lizheng's house. Because his house is often frequented, the gate is almost never closed during the day. The little girl stepped through the door and began to get a little nervous.

"Is anyone home?"

"You ......"

Luo in the stove room was puzzled when he heard the voice, and when he saw the birthmark on Ye Yu's face at the door, he immediately knew who she was.

"It's Ye Yu, do you have something to do with me?"

Luo often helps the villagers deal with trivial family disputes, and has also heard that Ye Yu's mother and daughter were kicked out of the house, so he subconsciously thought that Ye Yu was coming to her.

"No, no, uncle, I'm here to find my uncle, and I have something important to tell him. Is Uncle him at home? ”

Hearing this, Luo was stunned, and quickly reacted and said that she should do it for a while and call someone herself. She moved a bench for Ye Yu, turned around and entered the house.

She didn't dislike Ye Yu, but she didn't like it either. With the reputation of a broom star, she didn't chase people out, so it's good.

"Boss! The daughter of the Chuanxing family outside came to you and said that there was something big, so you went out to take a look? ”

Li Zheng is also surnamed Ye, and he probably has some impressions of the people in his clan.

"Chuanxing? The one who fell into the sea and died? His daughter, I remember, had a big red spot on her face. ”

The old man chattered while putting on his clothes and shoes and going down to the ground. I'm old, and my health is not very good, so I don't know which one I got up and coughed for a while. When I finished packing up and went out, it was already two quarters of an hour later.

"Girl, it's rare to see you once, come to me and say something."

Ye Yu took a deep breath and made up his mind, and very simply took out the five hundred taels of silver tickets that he had prepared.

Both husband and wife are knowledgeable and recognize it as a silver ticket at a glance. When they saw the amount on it, they were both shocked.

Li Zheng was frightened and coughed again, and drank two bowls of warm water before he came to his senses.

"Girl, where did you get so much money?!"

"Uncle, don't worry, this is all earned by serious methods!"

Ye Yu hurriedly explained: "When I was rushing to the sea two days ago, I picked up a broken box on the beach, and I saw a pair of beautiful cups inside. When he took it to the pawnshop to exchange money today, the boss offered a price of 1,000 taels of silver. ”

Hearing a thousand taels, the couple gasped again. Envy, jealousy, and all kinds of emotions are on the top.

As for the truth of the matter, they had no doubts at all.

There are many treasures in the sea and they are mysterious, not to mention the shipwreck treasures that have been circulating for a long time, but also to say that there have been many wrecks in the nearby waters in recent years. Some babes are carried by the waves and blown to the beach, which is a real thing. Every few years, I can hear who and who picked up the treasure when they were catching the sea, and sold it for a lot of money.

But those people's money is not as much as the girl in front of them!
