Chapter 40.
She will always remember the scene when the Wu family village people treated her!
The village chief was a little silent. He knew the situation at that time. If he hadn't stopped the villagers, the girl Xixi would have been beaten to death by them.

He was not surprised at all when he heard Nan Xi say these words.

"Xixi, don't worry about them, just live your own life! Some people just can't see others well."

He used to think that the people in the village were pretty nice, so why couldn't he tolerate a teenage girl?

Wu Changheng didn't speak, but just clenched her fists. She could imagine Nan Xi's helplessness and despair at that time.

Looking at Nan Xi sitting there calmly, with a smile on her face, in fact, the previous Xi Xi really wanted to be free, right?

Fortunately, the current Nanxi is not the original Xixi.

That's good too, so she won't be bullied.

"Village chief, let's not talk about this, I'm here to ask if I want to buy that mountain, does the Yamen agree?"

Nan Xi came to do business today, so she wasn't angry.

The village head replied: "There is nothing to disagree with. This hilltop is what the government has the final say on. It's just that the villagers won't agree. Selling a hilltop is different from buying land. If you buy this hilltop, you won't let them go hunting or anything like that. They definitely don't agree."

Many people in Wujia Village are still willing to go hunting in the front mountain of Huzi Mountain. If Nan Xi buys that mountain and encloses the whole mountain, they will not be able to enter.

This is tantamount to cutting off a source of income for the villagers.

Nan Xi thought about it and thought it was true, but she still decided to buy it all at once, "Uncle Village Chief, do you think this is okay? My rice seeds are ripe, so I will keep the rice seeds, and everyone in the village will have a share. In addition, I will subsidize each household with 20 taels of silver."

This rice seed is something that money cannot buy.

Qingliguo has always advocated vigorously planting crops, where can ordinary people get rice seeds?

They can't grow it even if they want to.

Now that Nanxi is providing seeds, those who want to plant them will definitely be interested.

Giving them 20 taels of silver per household is already an extra, and only in this way can they sign the contract.

The money to buy the hill needs to be submitted to the government. If the government wants to sell the hill, more than half of the villagers in Wujia Village must agree to sign it.

After all, this mountain is also on the territory of Wujia Village, and it is true that the yamen holds the title deed of this mountain, and they also need to listen to the opinions of the people.

Nan Xi did this just to calm things down.

Things that can be settled with money are not things.

The village head widened his eyes and said, "Xixi, are you stupid? 20 taels per household? Where did you get so much money? There are [-] households in Wujia Village."

That's not a small fortune at all.

It only costs 500 taels of silver to buy this mountain. If you distribute the money to the villagers, you will go to a mountain in one fell swoop!
Wu Changheng also felt that something was wrong.

Nan Xi smiled and said, "Uncle Village Chief, I'm not that stupid. I'll give money to those who haven't signed the contract. I'll only give it to those who sign the contract."

Isn't she stupid, burning too much money?

If she hadn't saved those two people and had some money, she would have been in trouble with the money to open the shop now.

The village chief was obviously frightened, and patted his chest, "That's okay, I'll go and talk to them tomorrow."

Nan Xi also wanted to spend money to buy cleansing. As long as half of the people in the Wu family village signed the signature, even if she surrounded the mountain, they could only shut up obediently.

The people in the village went hunting, but it was just for show. How many of them knew how to hunt?

On the contrary, there are quite a few people who go up the mountain to dig wild vegetables.

Nan Xi discussed some things with the village head, and left soon after seeing the weather.

The village chief couldn't stay at home, so he went directly to the patriarch.

The chief patriarch is still a reasonable person, and he didn't speak for a long time after hearing what the village chief said.

After pondering for a long time, he sighed.

"I think it's feasible! This is the safest way. If the villagers don't agree to sign, Nanxi can still forcefully buy the mountain. It's nothing more than going to the yamen a few more times and spending more money. If it gets to that point, the villagers will We can’t get the money, let alone the seeds.”

The patriarch can distinguish between good and bad.

If the villagers insisted on refusing to sign, Nan Xi would go directly to the yamen and spend twice as much money to take down the mountain without their consent at all.

The yamen said that the signatures of the villagers of Wujia Village were needed, and they also thought that more things would be better than less things.

Nanxi's willingness to donate grain, seeds and money is also based on the same considerations as the Yamen.

She lived in Wujia Village no matter what, and even if she didn't need them to open up wasteland and farm, she didn't want to make the relationship too tense.

As long as the well water does not interfere with the river water, it will be fine.

The village head also thinks it is the best way to do this, Nan Xi is still considerate, "Then please ask the head of the patriarch to sign tomorrow, it will not be easy for that girl Xixi."

The patriarch knew how the villagers treated Nan Xi, but he rarely went out when he was old, and he didn't want to meddle in other people's business.

He also knew about the fact that the other two clan elders had called the village chief over, and he felt that they were really embarrassing to Wujia Village!
I didn't treat people well at first, but now that they are prosperous, are they all jealous?
Really shameless!
"Okay! I'll go tomorrow with this old bone."

The patriarch's health has always been poor, and he will not go out if there is no serious matter.

Since that girl Nan Xi is so promising, the whole village feels honored, right?
Those old things are short-sighted and only see a little bit of benefit in front of them.

The village head said with a smile: "Then I'll go first! You should just rest!"

Finished talking and left.

Talking to the chief patriarch, the matter is half successful.

the next day.

People stood outside the ancestral hall of Wujia Village.

"Village chief, what kind of money do you pay for this if it's not just the New Year or the festival?"

"That's right! Has the village chief lost his sleep? There has never been such a good thing in Wujia Village."

"Could it be that girl Nanxi who agreed to hire us to work?"

"It would be great if that's the case, won't you make money?"

"Isn't it a great thing to get paid for working for her without working hard?"

A group of people standing outside began to fantasize about good things.

Nan Xi is from Wujia Village, so why not call them uncle when he sees them?

There's no need for an uncle to work for his niece too seriously, right?
As long as they have the money to take it.

The great patriarch came over with the support of the village chief, and when he heard what these people said, his beard was about to fly off.

Sure enough, it's something that can't be put on the table!
The village chief helped the patriarch to sit down, and the group of people fell silent.

They didn't expect that the chief patriarch would go out in person. Something big happened!

"I came here today to ask you to sign. The front mountain of Huzishan was bought by Nan Xi, but you still need to get your fingerprints. As long as you get your fingerprints today, the rice seeds will be reserved for you next year. Another subsidy is 20 taels of silver."

The village chief's words were like a bomb that stunned a group of people.
