Chapter 195 Thoughts
The old man nodded and said: "This is indeed a bit difficult to deal with. What if we find these people to buy the land in this slum?"

The county magistrate said: "It's not impossible, but this place is not small. It's not easy to buy it! I'm afraid someone will raise the price. Even I, the county magistrate, can't stop it. After all, the sale is voluntary. matter."

The old man said: "How about this? Can the magistrate still find the owners of these lands? I bought this land! Build a shelter for the refugees."

Magistrate Wu said in surprise: "Old man, are you telling the truth? This land is not small! It costs thousands of taels of silver to buy it!"

The old man said: "Just buy some real estate for your family and provide shelter for the refugees. Why not!"

The county magistrate said: "Okay, let me talk to these people. I think they will give me, the county magistrate, a face."

The old man nodded and said: "If the negotiation is successful, where will we find someone to build a house? I can't stay in the town for long, there are still many things to do at home."

Magistrate Wu said: "Old man, you don't have to worry. It's up to me to find people to do the work. You have solved a big problem for me! Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to find a suitable place to resettle these refugees." Yes, as a token of my gratitude, our yamen can still afford this worker’s wages.”

The old man did not refuse. To be precise, he did solve the problem of resettling the refugees for the county magistrate.

In the afternoon, Kui Wu planned to go to school to pick up his brother and the others, and the old man took Qibao with him.

The brothers were a little surprised when they saw Grandpa and Qibao.

Xiaowu asked: "Grandpa, why are you and your sister in town?"

The old man briefly explained the matter to his brothers.

Xiao Wu said: "These people are really pitiful."

The old man asked: "Do you think it's good for grandpa to do this?"

Xu Wenwu said: "Of course it's good. This not only gives our family a good reputation, but also fills in a real estate. Grandpa did the right thing!"

The old man nodded. The eldest grandson was very perceptive and could see the benefits of this at a glance.

The old man said: "Although it is beneficial to us in terms of profits, we can't just look at these as a person. Grandpa also sincerely wants to help these refugees."

The brothers nodded.

Back home, because it was almost time to have dinner, Uncle Xu and his brother also came back from the construction site.

When Mrs. Wang saw the old man coming back, she quickly asked: "Old man, how is the situation in the town?"

The old man once again told his family what he had just seen in the town.

Wang said: "Hey! These people are pitiful enough. If they encounter something like this now, it will probably be even more difficult in the future."

The old man said: "I have already discussed with the county magistrate to buy the land in the former slum and build houses for these refugees!"

Uncle Xu reacted a little loudly and said: "What! Dad, are you crazy? There are so many refugees, how much money will it cost to build houses!"

The old man said: "You know nothing! Your brain is not as good as that of a kid like Wen Wu. Can you only see the gains and losses in front of you?"

Uncle Xu shrank his neck and was so scolded by his father that he did not dare to say another word.

The old man told his family what he was thinking.

Wang said: "Although you are right, what if the owner of this land refuses to sell it?"

The old man said: "The chance is not high. They have no use for these vacant lands. They might as well get money by selling them."

Wang asked: "Then will you go to town tomorrow?"

The old man shook his head and said: "I won't go tomorrow. Those refugees have been resettled. Now I just need to wait for news from the county magistrate."

"Dad, you are so awesome. Not only have you won a good reputation, but your family has acquired more real estate. You have also solved the headache for the county magistrate. You can also make the county magistrate feel grateful. This is killing three birds with one stone!" Xu Erbo! road.

The old man glanced at him and said: "You think you can think of it, and the county magistrate can't think of this? While we got benefits, we also helped him solve a big problem. Naturally, he wouldn't say much. Fortunately, Magistrate Wu He is a good official, otherwise no matter how much I think about your father, it will be in vain." In the next three or four days, the old man waited at home for news from the county magistrate.

About the afternoon of the fifth day, a yamen official came to the Xu family and said that the land matter had been settled, allowing the old man time to go to the yamen to transfer the property.

The old man finally felt relieved. Seeing that it was getting late, he planned to go there early tomorrow morning.

Qibao also wanted to go with her, but she had to go to school in the morning to learn embroidery.

"Grandma, I want to go to town with grandpa tomorrow, but I'm afraid my mother won't agree." Qibao said while holding Wang's arm and looking up.

Wang said: "You have been studying for so many days, and you should take a day off. Grandma agrees that you go with your grandpa tomorrow! I will come to your mother's place."

Shippo smiled and nodded.

It happened that Mrs. Lin heard the conversation between her daughter and her mother-in-law as soon as she arrived in the main hall, and said helplessly: "You will tell your grandma! I didn't say not to let you go."

Qibao chuckled and said, "The chances of winning are better!"

Wang smiled and tapped Qibao's forehead and said, "You little clever guy."

Mrs. Lin said: "But you have to go and ask for leave from your Aunt Ru."

Qibao nodded and said, "I understand, mother."

The next day, Qibao and the old man took a carriage to the town with several brothers.

Brother Xiaowu said: "Sister, I really envy you that you don't have to go to school. You asked for leave when you asked for leave."

The old man gave Xiao Wu a slap in the face and said, "How dare you compare with your sister? Your sister knows more than you even if she doesn't go to school. She even learns embroidery much faster than others."

Xiao Wu said: "My sister is taught by an immortal master. Of course I can't compare with her."

The old man said: "As long as you know, if you can't compete with the master, why don't you compete with yourself!"

Qibao said: "Grandpa, don't talk about fifth brother. From now on, fifth brother can compete with my sister, right? Fifth brother?"

When Xiao Wu heard this, he said proudly: "Yes! My sister is the most powerful! No other sister is as powerful as my sister!"

When the old man heard this, he nodded in agreement and said, "Although Qibao is great, as an elder brother, you can't be too bad, otherwise you will lose your sister's face."

"I understand, grandpa!" Xiao Wu promised, and the other brothers nodded in agreement.

Qibao was just joking along with his grandfather's words. Unexpectedly, everyone took it seriously and looked serious, and he couldn't help but blush.

After sending his brother to the entrance of the school, Kui Wu drove the carriage towards the Yamen.

The old man said to the two yamen guards: "Two young brothers, are your magistrates at the yamen?"

A government official said: "Here, is your surname Xu?"

The old man said: "Yes."

The yamen officer said: "Our county magistrate has already greeted us, I will take you in right now."

Follow the yamen servant all the way to the door of a study room.

The yamen servant stood at the door and shouted: "Sir, Mr. Xu is here."

After a while, the door was opened by Magistrate Wu from the inside.

"The old man is here, please come in quickly." Magistrate Wu said politely.
