But fearing that the official would find out, Er Shuan quickly lowered his gaze.

It's a pity that Secretary Guan was born with a keen eye and had already noticed his snake-like gaze, but he didn't expose it. He only smiled at Bantou Peng and said, "Go quickly. If it's late, it will delay the county government's seal and ruin the Mid-Autumn Festival celebration." , that wouldn’t be beautiful.”

After saying that, he turned around and walked towards the courtyard of the household.

Huang Yanglong gave his money bag to Secretary Guan: "Take it to Jiang Dalang and ask him to spend it as hard as he can!"

The official Guan Shuli pulled him over and entered the courtyard door of the house.

The blatant favoritism made Bantou Peng and Wu Laoer and his son very angry.

Wu Xingzu was young and couldn't help it anymore and shouted: "We are here to buy the mountain, and we want to go in too!"

Guan Anong stood in the middle of the courtyard door, turned around and smiled, and asked Peng Bantou: "Peng Bantou is here to help the Wu family buy a mountain? Which good mountain did you buy? This is west of Taifeng Town, close to Wujia Village. , which other good mountains are worth buying? I really want to know!"

By the end of the sentence, there was anger in his tone.

Guan Annong is indeed very angry... On the annexed land, the local gangsters in the countryside are more hateful and shameless than some wealthy families!

Bantou Peng was confused by the question and quickly scolded Wu Xingzu: "Wu family, for the sake of cousin Kong, I had a meal with you. Don't get mad because of this. Please note that this is a county government. The county magistrate is in charge, and you will not be allowed to act wild, so hurry up and follow me to see the county magistrate!"

He came personally to take custody of Wu Xingzu.

Wu Xingzu was shocked and angry, and quickly called Wu Laoer: "Dad?!"

Wu Laoer glanced at him and said: "Although Master Huang is wrong, we are also wrong for blocking the door of the courtyard and making noise. We should go and apologize to the county magistrate."

Wu Xingzu was stunned. He really wanted to see the county magistrate? Then the Wu family won’t be able to buy the mountain behind the ghost village!

But there was no choice. The father and son, Er Shuan, Huang Yanglong and others had no choice but to leave together and go to the public house of County Magistrate Kang.

……

In the room, Secretary Liu smiled at Jiang Dalang and said, "Wait, I will get you a mountain atlas near Wansong Village."

Jiang Dalang has been in for a long time, but Secretary Liu was afraid of offending others, so he didn't do anything for him. Now that he saw that they had won the fight, he hurried to get the album.

The album was very thick, and Secretary Liu personally turned to the page of the ghost village for Jiang Dalang: "Starting from here, the mountain maps included are all from Wansong Village, covering an area of ​​3,600 acres."

In fact, it's more than that... The mountain behind the ghost village belongs to one of the Tianmang Mountains. It is unknown how many miles deep it is, but the government is unable to measure too far into the deep mountains and old forests, so it only measured more than 3,000 acres.

Jiang Dalang asked: "Liu Shuli, how much is the price of this mountainous land?"

Secretary Liu smiled and said, "It's not expensive. Except for the shallow mountainous area near the ghost village, which costs one tael of silver per acre, the rest only costs half a tael of silver per acre."

There are many dangers in the deep mountains. Once a person goes in, it is difficult to get out alive, and there are many evil things happening in the ghost village, so it is only sold for half a tael of silver per acre, and no one has bought it for many years.

Guan Annong handed Huang Yanglong's money bag to Jiang Dalang: "Master Huang gave it to you."

Jiang Dalang looked at the bundles of silver notes in the bag and was happy. He said to Secretary Liu, "The Qin family has bought them all. Write Qin Xiaomi's name and ask Secretary Liu to make the land deed."

Bought them all!

The other two scribes in the household raised their heads in shock...Tsk, tsk, tsk, the Qin family has really made a fortune. They have enough money to buy thousands of acres of useless mountain land.

"Bring the Qin family's household registration, I will make the land deed for the Qin family!" Secretary Liu was afraid that Jiang Dalang would regret it, so he hurried to make the land deed. My daughter’s name has already been written, but it’s best for her to take the time to come to the county office to have her fingerprints filled in, so as not to be sold under someone else’s name.”

Then he laughed and said: "The total is two thousand three hundred taels of silver. Only after you give the silver can you go and ask for the seal."

Jiang Dalang hurriedly gave the banknote, and he was very sensible and gave him an extra ten taels of silver. Secretary Liu was very happy. After hiding the ten taels of silver, he followed the rules and called his colleagues in the household to check them together. After confirming the authenticity and quantity of the banknotes, he smiled and said: "That's right, I'll go there right away." Please give me a big seal and come back soon."

Guan Shuli said: "Let's go together. Jiang Dalang rides in the yamen and wants to see Magistrate Kang to plead guilty."

"Sure." Secretary Liu went to Magistrate Kang's apartment with them.

Peng Bantou, Wu Laoer and his son, Huang Yanglong and others have already been scolded.

After Jiang Dalang and the others came in, County Magistrate Kang pointed at Jiang Dalang and said: "The horses are running in the yamen, do you think the yamen is the entrance to the food market?!"

In the last life, Jiang Dalang was the emperor, so he didn't want to kneel down to others, but in order to make Su Su live a better life, he was willing to bow to all the rules in this world.

He knelt down and said respectfully: "The common people know that they are wrong, please ask the county magistrate to punish you."

Huang Yanglong patted his chest and said: "County County Magistrate Kang, it was I who forced Jiang Dalang to ride into the Yamen. If you want to punish him, just come to me. I will bear all the consequences."

You are quite loyal, but can you put on your clothes first? You are disheveled and barefoot, how unbecoming you are!

County Magistrate Kang had a headache when he saw Huang Yanglong, but thinking about the achievements brought by the new dye, the ten carts of generous gifts sent to him by the direct descendants of the Chief Envoy, and the letter of commendation from the family head, he felt happy again. He took a look Huang Yanglong said: "Since Huang Yanglong took the initiative to plead guilty, he will be fined three hundred taels of silver as a warning to others."

He looked at Bantou Peng again and asked him: "Bantou Peng, are you satisfied with this punishment?"

Peng Bantou was horrified and knelt down quickly: "I am just a lowly servant, I dare not say anything. Everything in the yamen is decided by the county magistrate!"

It was a big holiday. Magistrate Kang was about to be promoted again. He didn’t want to offend local snakes, so he didn’t embarrass Bantou Peng and the Wu family. He only said: “Everything should be done on a first-come, first-served basis. Since we have lost the opportunity, forget it and get back to it.” Let’s go home to celebrate the festival, don’t cause trouble and cause trouble to the Yamen.”

Understand!

If you want to cause trouble, wait until I am promoted and transferred.

Peng Bantou and the Wu family father and son said hurriedly: "Yes, you guys understand. Thank you for your kindness."

Magistrate Kang was too lazy to deal with them because of the big festival, so he waved his hand: "Let's go."

The Wu family father and son quickly got up and followed Peng Bantou away.

Huang Yanglong hurriedly asked Jiang Dalang: "Shandi, have you bought it?!"

Jiang Dalang said: "Waiting for the county magistrate to use the big seal."

Huang Yanglong cried out with joy: "Oh, I knew it was us who won!"

County Magistrate Kang glanced at him and his expression was indescribable... The Qin family is the one who bought the land. It has nothing to do with you. Why are you so excited?

After Kang County Magistrate read the land deed, he frowned and asked Jiang Dalang: "Is the Qin family going to buy so much mountain land, or are you making your own decision?"

More than two thousand taels is not a small amount. Don't spend it randomly just after you earn some money. If you spend all the money and delay the new dye business, I will not spare you!

Jiang Dalang said: "The Qin family wants to buy so much... Xiaomi heard that Northeastern states are rich in ginseng, so he wants to buy some deep in the mountains. When he has time, he can dig ginseng in the mountains to make a fortune."

Oh, only the granddaughter of the Qin family would dare to dream of such a sweet dream, but she would be killed if she didn't dig up the ginseng.

County Magistrate Kang was in a hurry to seal it for the festival, so he didn't ask any more questions. After stamping the land deed with a big seal, he handed it to Jiang Dalang: "Take it."

He added: "Although you are rich, you are still very weak, so don't take the initiative to stir up trouble."
