After being reborn as a widow, the mistress of the Hou family remarried a powerful official

Chapter 38 The new owner is me
"Both the grain store and the drug store are open. The drug store has the best business. Doctor Xie is an indispensable guest."

Ke Yiqing smiled and said, "Are you resenting me for buying food?"

Li Wei shook his head, "The news from Jingnan has spread quietly in Shengjing, but there are not many people collecting grain."

There are four major grain stores that control it. Even if their shop has become famous recently, few people are willing to come and buy grain.

She was not surprised by such a result. It was the same in her previous life. Even if the officialdom was robbed, the people in Shengjing still had this inexplicable self-confidence, thinking that there might be a shortage of food everywhere, but only Shengjing would not.

"Those who have come here recently to buy grain either buy new rice or buy more old rice. They are basically people who come to live with relatives from other places."

As for the potatoes, none of them were sold. When everyone saw that the potatoes were still stained with dirt, they all walked away in disgust. No one wanted to buy such a thing.

Ke Yiqing waved his hand, "Where are you now? Don't worry about Tudou. You can follow me to the orchard today."

The severe cold was coming soon, and no matter how little mosquito meat was, it was still meat. She planned to transport pears, which were easy to store, into the city.

Xie Li was taking a break today. Hearing that they were going to the outskirts of the city, he also said that he would take her with him.

"Xiaoyu and her old lady are still guarding the medical center. I don't feel safe if I don't go and see them."

Ke Yiqing remembered what the goddess said before, and her eyebrows moved, "I heard that you collect medicinal materials grown by refugees?"

"That's right, they can still make a living, but the land has recently changed to a new owner, so I'm afraid they won't be able to plant it anymore."

"It's true that we can't plant anymore. I plan to ask them to open up wasteland for me."

Xie Li was stunned, "Is this the new owner you?"

"It was me."

She smiled and took out the documents printed by the government. She had just completed the land transfer process a few days ago, and now she had time to clean up the "aboriginals".

"I've looked at your land. It's hard to grow medicinal materials. Even if you open up wasteland, it's not considered fertile land. Why bother?"

Ke Yiqing smiled but didn't answer. Who said she was going to open up wasteland for farming?

It happened that the government officials responsible for land transfer also arrived.

The group of people left the city like this, and there were indeed a lot of people wandering outside. When they saw such a good carriage, the greedy and ferocious look in their eyes made even the official officers wipe their hands with cold sweat.

"Madam, I'm not telling you that the situation in the suburbs of the city and your place will not get better!"

"My lord, I just came here to take a look. It's a big thank you for your trouble."

With that said, Yu Jin also stuffed a heavy purse into him at the right moment.

The official was a little bit complaining at first, but after thinking about it a few times, he smiled so hard, "It's not hard, it's not hard, no matter what, I bought this land and I have to go and see it. I will handle it properly!"

"Then there is Mr. Lao."

When we arrived at the place, we saw the village where Gu Zhennan lived.

Ke Yiqing glanced at the refugees around him, and soon he had something to worry about.

"Sir, is this mountain also included in the title deed?"

"Don't talk about this hill, even within a radius of twenty miles, this is Madam's land."

"Then why do there seem to be people living on this mountain?"

"This... maybe the refugees nearby thought that no one wanted this place, so they settled up there. Madam, wait a moment, I'll go and drive them away."

Ke Yiqing stopped him, "If people are driven away in this kind of world, wouldn't that mean they are not leaving a way for them to survive?"

"What does that lady mean?"

"These people can live here if they want, but they cannot be exempted from paying taxes."

Some of the refugees also lived on this hilltop, and they said dissatisfiedly: "If we refugees are rich, who can live in this shabby place?" Upon hearing this, the official sneered and said: "It is a big mistake to be bold and unruly. According to the law, unruly people like you will not only have to pay taxes, but also be punished with a cane for thirty years. I wonder who else has any objections?"

The refugees shrank when they heard this, but they still complained.

At this time, Li Wei stood up and said, "Fellow fellow villagers, my wife's intention is definitely not to push you into a desperate situation."

"what does that mean?"

"If you are willing to cultivate this land, you will be exempted from taxes for the first year after the cultivation is completed."

These words suddenly exploded among the refugees, and everyone rushed forward to grab this opportunity, fearing that if they were slower than others, they would not have a chance.

Fortunately, Ke Yiqing was well prepared, and brothers Li Wei, who had previously been living as refugees, also stepped forward to maintain order.

"We are from all over the world, and it is fate that we are here together. It is just for better management. Please also register your information. If you dare to falsely report information and conceal your identity, we will never welcome you here!"

Seeing that Li Wei and his brothers were in good order, Ke Yiqing felt relieved.

The following is what she is most looking forward to today.

"People on the mountain, I have to ask the official to go with me."

"It's natural. It's probably all hard work. If it doesn't work, just set it on fire. It would save trouble."

This is what officials have always done, but today the lady gave him enough money that he would be happy to climb the mountain not only once, but three times.

Fortunately, someone had tipped off the news, and when the group went up, many villagers were already waiting outside.

Led by the eldest man, they all expressed their acceptance of the previous proposal. After all, no one was a fool. Not only would they be able to live openly and openly, but they would also be exempted from taxes for the first year.

"Old man, are all the men in your village here?"

"Everyone is here. Now you can register."

Not many people live on the mountain, and soon most of the registration team has left.

"My name is Liu Dazhuang. I am 27 years old. My ancestral home is Cangshan. I have lived here for seven or eight years. Everyone can testify." After that, he handed over his photo sticker.

The officer took it and looked at it, and then nodded to her after confirming it was correct.

"Okay, next one."

"Your surname?"

"My, my name is Wang Suyun."

Ke Yiqing's hand holding the pen paused. She looked up and saw a pretty village woman holding a child with a slightly reserved expression.

She had fantasized about meeting this couple countless times, but never like this.

"Then I'll call you Yun Niang. Where is your man?"

Su Yun was still feeling weird about the sound of "Yun Niang", and a man behind her explained impatiently: "Her man went down the mountain today, please register first, madam. We are neighbors and we all know everything."

"Yes, I, my man's name is Gu, Gu Dali."

Ke Yiqing interrupted her, "You don't know, I don't have any other requirements here, but for everyone's benefit, we won't accept people whose identities are unknown."

A look of hesitation flashed across the man's face, but he didn't speak.

"If you know something but don't report it, you will be treated the same way."

Now the man who had been hesitating suddenly jumped out, "Suyun, isn't your man's name Gu Dali?"

Other registered villagers also cast doubtful looks. They remembered that Suyun's man did not have this name.
