Mazhaizi Village

The car stopped at the crossing, and Bai Ji jumped out of the carriage first, turning over and helping Xu down.

With his shoes on the yellow earth, Fang Xu raised his eyes and looked at the village in front of him.

There is a half-person high piece of wood at the entrance of the village, on which the horse village is crookedly carved, and there is no one at the crossing, and it is too deserted.

"Why isn't there anyone in this village?" Bai Ji crossed his hands on his hips and looked around, "It's scary." ”

"Maybe it's because of the autumn harvest that they're all working in the fields." Su Zi helped Fang Xu with a soft voice, "Madame, be careful of your step, there are a lot of stones here." ”

Fang Xu hummed lightly, straightened his dress, and said softly, "Let's go, go in and have a look." ”

Su Zi accompanied Fang Xu, Bai Ji led the carriage, patrolling around, for fear that there would be another villain to make a move.

The three of them entered the village and walked through the fields, but still found no living person.

"What's going on?" Fang Xu frowned, "Where have all the people gone?" ”

As soon as the words landed, a little boy with a bud ran out from the side, and when he saw the stranger, he tilted his head a little confused.

It can be regarded as seeing a living person, Fang Xu gave Su Zi a look, the latter understood, stepped forward with a smile, and said softly, "Little doll, why are you the only one in the village?" ”

The little boy took two steps back, his face defensive, but his voice was very soft, "You guys...... Who is it? ”

"We're here to discuss things with the village adults." Su Zi smiled gently, took out a candied fruit bag from his sleeve, took out a candied fruit, and handed it to the little boy, "As long as the little doll can take us to find the adult, my sister's pocket of candied fruit will be yours." ”

The little boy's eyes lit up, and he raised his hand and snatched the candied fruit from Su Zi's palm, stuffed it into his mouth, which had not yet grown a few teeth, and said vaguely, "Tell me first, what are you doing in our village?" ”

Su Zi laughed dryly twice and said softly, "We are here to buy land, and we have an order, and we ......."

"Buying land?" The little boy was stunned for a moment, then spit out the candied fruit in his mouth, and snorted several times in a row.

Su Zi was a little confused by his battle, and just as he wanted to speak, he saw the little boy bend down, grab a handful of soil from the ground, and immediately throw it towards him.

Before Suzi could react, the whole person was pulled up.

Fang Xu let go of Su Zi's wrist, looked at the little boy's eyes full of coldness, and scolded sharply, "Which family are you from, why do you have no tutor like this?" ”

The little boy snorted at her, and shouted, "My mother said, the people you come to buy land are black-hearted bastards, and you must not be soft-hearted!" ”

After speaking, he seemed to be puzzled, and picked up the stone at his feet to smash Fang Xu, "You haven't been beaten enough yesterday, and you came to fight again today?" ”

Seeing that he was about to smash someone, Bai Ji threw down the reins and protected him in front of Fang Xu, "You little scoundrel, don't think that if you are a child, I won't dare to clean you up!" Be presumptuous again, believe it or not I'm going to open your ass to flowers? ”

"Wait." Fang Xu stopped her, her eyebrows jumped, "I listened to him, someone also came to buy land yesterday?" ”

"Get out! Get the hell out of here! I won't sell as much money as I give! ”

There was a sudden quarrel not far away, and Fang Xu followed the prestige, just in time to see a man being pushed out, staggering a few steps before he could stand firm, and there were several silver tickets scattered under his feet.

The man brought a small servant, and at this time he was squatting on the ground to pick up the ticket.

Fang Xu looked at the man, the more he looked at it, the more familiar he became, and he raised his voice and called, "Shen Ji? ”

Hearing his name, Shen Ji raised his head and met Fang Xu's surprised eyes.

Fang Xu saw his face clearly and muttered, "It's really him......"

Shen Ji also saw Fang Xu, frowned, and said softly, "Madam? ”

Seeing that the little servant picked up all the silver tickets, Shen Ji took steps and walked towards Fang Xu.

Walking up to him, Fang Xu raised the corners of his lips and asked softly, "Why are you here?" ”

Shen Ji's eyes were a little fluttering, and he said vaguely, "Do some business." ”

Fang Xu's face was clear, but his gaze was fixed on those silver tickets, "Are you talking about business, are you also here to buy land?" ”

"Also?" Shen Ji frowned, "Madame, ......?"

Fang Xu Wan'er smiled and said softly, "I'm also here to do business." ”

Shen Ji paused, immediately lowered his long eyelashes, and said in a low voice, "The villagers here are stubborn and spicy, Madame be careful." ”

"Nothing." Fang Xu waved his hand indifferently, and laughed softly, "If you can't do business, you won't do it, and you can't kill me?" ”

Shen Ji raised his eyes to look at her, and only laughed out loud after a while, "What Madam said makes sense, but I'm anxious." ”

Fang Xu gathered the thin qi on his body, looked at the boy who had already run away, hooked his lips and smiled, "To deal with these people, soft ones can't work, and hard ones can't do it, only by doing both, can we cure them." ”

Shen Ji became interested, his eyes narrowed, and his smile spread, "I don't know what kind of lady is doing spells?" ”

Fang Xu hooked his lips, exuding confidence in his gestures, "You will do it with me." ”

After half an hour, the villagers of Ma Zhai gathered in the center of the village and looked at Li Zheng on the stage with a puzzled expression.

"I said Lizheng, what are you calling us here for this midday?"

"That's it, there's still soup simmering at home!"

"Is there anything going on? It's okay, I'm going back to nap! ”

On the wooden platform, Gao Li, dressed in cloth, was standing on it, coughing lightly twice, waving his hand, and the sound of the audience disappeared instantly.

"Folks, I really have something to say when I call you here today." Gao Lizheng cleared his throat, turned his back, and shouted respectfully, "You two, please." ”

The villagers looked over him and saw Fang Xu and Shen Ji in the audience.

"This ...... Isn't this the one who wants to buy the land by force? ”

"Why are you messing around with people like them!"

"Get out of our village!"

Fang Xu didn't care about the sound of the audience, and pulled Shen Ji's cuffs and went on the stage.

Shen Jihuo was brought to the stage by her like a little daughter-in-law, her eyebrows lowered, her eyes fixed on the hand on the cuff, and the corners of her lips were slightly raised.

Fang Xu looked around, looked at everyone's indignant looks, lightly hooked the corners of his lower lip, and said softly, "Fellow villagers, I think you have heard some things in the past two days, and you have also seen us people. ”

"That's right, we're here to buy land." Fang Xu's voice landed, and seeing that those villagers were about to scold again, he hurriedly turned a corner, "However, we bought this land not for private use, but for the imperial court!" ”

As soon as I heard that it was the imperial court, the villagers, you look at me, I look at you, and they all put out the fire.

Seeing this, Fang Xu hooked the corners of his mouth with satisfaction, pulled Shen Ji, and raised his voice, "We are on the orders of the imperial court to come to trade with you, if you are willing to cooperate in this land purchase, the silver ticket will naturally be indispensable." ”

"But if you don't cooperate...... Fang Xu narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice, "If you anger the higher-ups, it won't be easy to end!" ”
