Chapter 23 Land Deed
Early the next morning, Jiang Mingshun entered the city again carrying white fungus, caramel, and soap.

He delivered the goods to the powder shop and pastry shop as usual, collected the money in exchange, and then went to the drug store.

"Brother Jiang, you're finally here." As soon as Jiang Mingshun entered the door of the drug store, he heard shopkeeper Hao calling him.

Jiang Mingshun smiled: "Business manager, business is good."

"Haha," Shopkeeper Hao came forward with a smile on his face: "We've waited until Brother Jiang came over."

From the moment Jiang Mingshun came in, Shopkeeper Hao had a guess in his mind, knowing that the Tremella matter should be done.

Having done a big thing for his boss, Shopkeeper Hao was naturally proud.

Jiang Mingshun was not a meandering person, so he readily took out the white fungus from his backpack: "Does what Shopkeeper Hao said last time still count?"

"Of course, Brother Jiang has already decided?" Shopkeeper Hao glanced at the things on the counter.

"Yes," Jiang Mingshun nodded, thought for a moment and then added: "But if someone else discovers Tremella, I can't guarantee who he will sell it to."

Shopkeeper Hao nodded in agreement: "This is natural."

"I was just doing business with you, how can I meddle in other people's affairs."

This is not an exclusive secret method. If he buys it, others will not be allowed to do it again. The white fungus grows wherever it is, and whoever picks it or sells it is beyond his control.

What their shop can do is to build a trade route early before others discover it.

As for whether other people would find Tremella fuciformis at that time, Shopkeeper Hao stroked his beard and thought, ordinary people, don’t all pay attention to cooking and not cooking.

By then, as long as the price is fair, they will have a huge advantage over other merchants.

The two parties reached a cooperation, and Jiang Mingshun took the dozens of taels of silver handed over by shopkeeper Hao.

He didn't even bother to see that this was a silver ingot he had never seen before, he just rushed to Village Chief Li's house without stopping.

The village chief was weeding the vegetable field in the yard. When he saw Jiang Mingshun, he stood up and called him in.

Jiang Mingshun couldn't take a break and asked directly: "Village chief, if I want to buy two hills in the village, how much will it cost?"

Village Chief Li looked up at him in surprise: "You want to buy a hill? That's not even wasteland."

Jiang Mingshun nodded immediately: "I have already thought about it. Please ask the village chief for help."

Now that the decision has been made, the village chief said no more.

He asked Jiang Mingshun carefully about the hill he wanted to buy and gave him a rough price.

Jiang Mingshun touched the dozens of taels of silver he had just received through his clothes, and he felt relieved. Fortunately, the money was enough.

The village chief drafted the paperwork, hurriedly told his wife that he would come back later for dinner, and then went to the county government office with Jiang Mingshun.

After coming out of the county government, Jiang Mingshun had two more land deeds in his hand, and he happily took the land deeds into his arms.Regardless of the village chief's objection, he went to the pastry shop and bought two packs of pastries for the village chief.

Jiang Mingshun looked at the sky and said to Village Chief Li: "Village Chief, let's go back after lunch?"

The village chief immediately retorted: "You just bought the land. Saving money properly is the right thing to do."

Jiang Mingshun had just completed the big deal of buying a property, and he was very excited at the moment, so naturally he didn't care about this small amount of money.

He took the village chief to a noodle shop on the street and sat down. The village chief could only helplessly order a bowl of Yangchun noodles.

After arriving home, Jiang Mingshun handed the things to Bai, and called Jiang Jinyu: "Let's send the boxing gifts to the uncle's house now, so we don't have to make another trip tomorrow."

It has been very busy during this period. Several people have not been here for many days. Bai has never entered this door since he moved out.The old house was much the same as when they moved out, with no big changes except that there was an extra mule in the yard.

Jiang Mingshun stepped forward and patted the mule's back, praising with his eyes: "Uncle, this mule of yours is indeed a good buy."

Jiang Yongsheng laughed proudly and told him how useful mules were, and how much easier the work in the fields would be with them.

They just came to give gifts, so they didn't stay for a short time. They only chatted for a few words and then returned home.

Jiang Yongsheng originally wanted to ask Jiang Mingshun to come back to his old house for dinner during the Double Ninth Festival, but Jiang Mingshun refused because it was his first time to celebrate the festival in his new house.

Several people returned to their new home and each entered their own rooms.
Jiang Mingshun had been running around all day, and now he could finally lie down and rest for a while.

He leaned on the couch and couldn't help but let out a long sigh, thinking to himself, how long has it been since he went to the house where he grew up and there was nothing familiar anymore.

Everyone in the Jiang family's old house was also discussing secretly at this time.

Mrs. Yang was doing needlework in the yard with a stern face, which frightened everyone else into closing their doors tightly and not daring to go out. She had this expression after she came in from Jiang Mingshun's family, and she didn't feel much better even after seeing Ji Li.

Jiang Yongsheng had already gone out with the cigarette pot. Today his nephew gave him a gift. He was very happy because he really didn't want to argue with the old woman at home.

Mrs. Liu quietly said to her husband, "I see that your eldest brother praised our mule several times today."

She asked with some vigilance: "Does he want to come to our house to borrow a mule during spring plowing?"

Jiang Minghui waved his hand impatiently: "You bitch, if your brother uses a mule, is that called borrowing?"

"Hey!" Mrs. Liu snorted unconvincedly: "When you paid for it, why didn't you ask your brothers to also pay a share?"

Not only did Ms. Liu feel uncomfortable, but Ms. Liu in the next room also didn't look good.

In her opinion, she and Jiang Mingyao would have to move to the town sooner or later.She never felt that these places in the village had anything to do with her family.

Since she didn't fight for the land in the village, Ms. Liu thought, naturally the work on the land shouldn't be under the control of her house.

This time my father-in-law bought a mule, he actually asked them to pay for it.How could she be willing to do this?

……

Mrs. Bai shook the new clothes she had just made and shouted outside: "Mother Fish, come here quickly and try out the new clothes to see if they fit."

Jiang Jinyu ran over from his room.

Mrs. Bai put the clothes on her and buttoned them up with satisfaction. She thought to herself that people really rely on clothes and horses rely on saddles. Look at her daughter, a village girl dressed like this, she actually looks like a city girl.

Jiang Mingshunyuan was still watching with a smile, and suddenly asked: "Ms. Fish, do you like the city?"

Jiang Jinyu looked up at Jiang Mingshun in confusion, wondering why he suddenly thought of this.

"When we make money in the future, let's buy a house in the city. Dad will take you to live in the city, and then let you be a city girl, okay?"

Jiang Mingshun's tone was quite solemn. He had never thought about opening a house in the city. In his opinion, a farmer's family is a farmer's family, which is different from the people in the city.

If you want to become a city dweller, you have to become literate and find a livelihood in the city that can support your family.

Before today, the person in his mind who was most likely to become a city dweller was his third brother Jiang Mingyao.

It wasn't until just now that he saw his daughter wearing fine cloth clothes, and suddenly he felt that the "city person" in him was no longer far away.
