After rebirth, the Queen and I are on the run.

Chapter 57 Buying land again and Zhu Honggui

"Brother Lu, my dear, you are finally back!" Huang Wu rushed out of the house, hugged Huang Guilu and cried.

Chief Wu was afraid that this stupid woman would do something bad, so he quickly ordered Er Shuan: "Take this woman away. Today is a happy day for Brother Qin to be elected as the village chief. It is her turn to ruin the celebration!"

"Yes." Er Shuan quickly covered Huang Wu's mouth and dragged her back to the Huang family's house. I don't know what the two said, but after a while, Huang Wu's crying stopped.

After all the villagers with the four surnames of Huang, Hu, Qian, and Sun arrived, Lu Pangsan read Grandpa Qin's letter of appointment three times on the spot, and then said: "From now on, Grandpa Qin will be your village chief. If anything happens, go to him first!"

The Chai and Zhang families cheered, and Zhang Niuwang said loudly: "Mr. Qin is an upright man. He even made new grains of arrowroot to let the whole county know that we victims are capable and should be the village chief. We, the Chai and Zhang families, all obey he!"

Huang Laoer and his wife also said: "We, the Huang family, also believe in Mr. Qin!"

The three families of Hu Qian and Sun followed suit.

Wu Lichang didn't know what he was thinking, but with a smile on his face, he said to Grandpa Qin: "Brother Qin is so popular, I feel relieved. But as the librarian, I have a few words to tell the villagers. Let’s make it clear, brother Qin, don’t blame me.”

Grandpa Qin said hurriedly: "Chief, please tell me."

Wu Lichang narrowed his old eyes slightly, glanced around the villagers present, and then said: "Although the village chief is in charge of the villagers, the villagers also have the responsibility to supervise the village chief, so fellow villagers, you must not only listen to the village chief's words, but also Watch the village chief, if the village chief uses his power to suppress others and does something big wrong, you can come to me to seek justice."

Old Man Chai said: "Brother Qin is not that kind of person."

Old Man Hu hurriedly shouted: "Don't worry, Mr. Li Chang, we will definitely keep an eye on Qin Laowu. If he dares to make a mistake, we will sue him immediately!"

After saying that, he gave Old Man Chai a roll of his eyes... Idiot, the status of the village chief is higher than that of the village chief. At this time, he has to say something bad about the village chief to reassure the village chief. Otherwise, let alone them, not even Qin Laowu's family will be affected. Live a good life.

Chief Wu nodded with satisfaction and said: "You should live your life honestly and peacefully, and don't cause any trouble to Village Chief Qin, otherwise I won't spare you."

After finishing speaking, he looked at Grandpa Qin: "Brother Qin, please say a few words."

Grandpa Qin said a few words casually, and then detailed the whole story of Huang Guilu's return to the village, and finally said: "In the future, I need to trouble every household in the village to keep an eye on him and not let him commit another crime. Otherwise, our village will Your reputation will also be affected, and when you go out for a walk in the future, you will be looked down upon by people from all over the country."

Huang Lao's second daughter-in-law took the lead and said: "Village chief, don't worry, we will definitely keep an eye on Huang Guilu and we will not let him commit crimes again and implicate the villagers!"

As soon as Lian Zai's words came out, other villagers hurriedly echoed: "Yes, yes, yes, we will take good care of him, but we don't dare to let him commit crimes again and harm the village."

Grandpa Qin said to Huang Guilu again: "You have learned a lesson this time, and you will have to live peacefully in the future. Go home."

However, Chief Wu said: "Brother Qin, you can't do this. According to our rules, you have to be whipped in public to beat his evil spirit before letting him go home... Er Shuan, torture!"

"Yes." Er Shuan took Huang Guilu and knelt in front of the villagers, took off his clothes, whipped him ten times in public, and shouted: "Hurry up and admit your mistake to the villagers, and promise not to do it again in the future!"

Huang Guilu endured the severe pain, shook his body, and kowtowed to the villagers three times: "I'm sorry, villagers, I, I, I don't dare to do it again... Please don't send me back to prison. I don’t want to go to jail or be a slave in the mines, please..."

Before he finished speaking, he fainted, shocking the villagers, and their eyes changed when they looked at Wu Lichang... The Wu family is so powerful, they must not offend them.

And this is what Chief Wu wants... What kind of village chief?He, the head of the village, has the final say over these ten miles and eight villages!
Grandpa Qin said: "Huang Lao Er, quickly carry Huang Guilu home."

"Hey." Huang Laoer hurriedly carried Huang Guilu back to Huang's house. After a while, Huang Wu's cry came from Huang's house again.

Wu Lichang pretended not to hear, and smiled at Grandpa Qin: "Brother Qin, now that we've finished talking, can I come to your house and see how the arrowroot powder cake is made?"

"Of course you can. Please come with me, Chief." Grandpa Qin agreed and took Wu Chief, Lu Pangsan and the others back to their old house in the west of the village.

As soon as they entered the door, apart from Grandma Qin and Grandma Qin, there were also Qin Dashi's wife and Qin Dayan's wife. There was not even a slightly younger girl. Moreover, there was a smell of body odor in the main room, which made Old Wu and Er Shuan very angry. disappointment.

"Chief Li, these are the tools my family uses to make arrowroot powder. They are simple things...these are melon rinds for color extraction." Grandpa Qin took them around.Seeing that there was nothing new and no unmarried girl, Wu Lichang left quickly: "Brother Qin, you have just become the village chief. You must have many things to explain to the villagers. I won't stay any longer and go back first." ”

"Hey, I'll send it to the village chief." Grandpa Qin sent Wu Lizhang and Lu Pangsan out of the west of the village. He also gave them arrowroot cakes as gifts, and stuffed Lu Pangsan with a purse as payment for their hard work.

Lu Pangsan was very happy and urged Wu Lichang to leave.

But before leaving, he took away the big red cloth flower from Grandpa Qin's chest: "This red cloth is expensive, so you have to take it back and keep it for the next person."

After they left, Qin Xiaomi and the others came out of the back room.

After learning about Huang Guilu, Qin Xiaomi said: "Grandpa, let's go to the county town tomorrow and buy some land... The reason why Secretary Lu and the others failed to buy the land in the ghost village was because the county magistrate gave an order, not Villagers in ghost villages are not allowed to buy land in ghost villages. But local snakes have always had many tricks, so maybe they will buy the land in ghost villages through the hands of villagers in ghost villages."

"Huang Guilu is back, and Huang Cainiang's marriage has been arranged in a bizarre way. Maybe Huang Cainiang's husband's family is the hand of local snakes. After a while, the husband's family is afraid that they will give the Huang family money and use Huang Guilu's name to buy a lot of people in the village. Land. So we have to be first.”

This method of wantonly annexing land was common in the Dasheng Dynasty, but in the end the big landowners were confiscated and exterminated by the dog emperor Sheng Ting.

But here is the Wei Dynasty, which is in chaos, and no one cares about this kind of annexation of land.

Grandpa Qin was shocked when he heard this: "Okay, let's go to the county town again tomorrow."

Qin Xiaomi said again: "Grandpa, please call the Chai and Zhang families. They earned some money from selling kudzu firewood and doing work, which is enough to buy two acres of land. Their house is nice, if they don't buy the land quickly, I'm afraid They will be driven away by those who come after them.”

"Sure." Grandpa Qin personally went to find the Chai and Zhang families. The two families were afraid of being driven away, so they gritted their teeth and decided to go to the county to buy land together.

……

The next day, Qin Jiang, Xu Qiao and his family were divided into three groups. One group stayed behind, one group continued to set up a stall, and one group went to the county seat by car.

This time, Aunt Xu and Aunt Qiao also went there. Xu Erjun and Qiao Lizi planned to get married in June, and they went to the county town to buy wedding items.

They arrived at the county seat at noon and had to rush home. In order not to waste time, they divided into two teams, one to buy land and the other to buy things.

Qin Xiaomi wanted to see the current prices and followed them.

Jiang Dalang was worried, and he was afraid that Grandpa Qin and the others would not know the secrets of the yamen and would be tricked. He could only take away the Xu family's household registration and said to Xu Erjun: "Brother Erjun, I will buy the land for your family. You and Xu Madam and the others are going shopping.”

"Hey, I'll go right away." Xu Erjun's family used to work for the Jiang family. They regarded Jiang Dalang as half a young master and trusted him the most. After giving him their household registration, they hurried after Aunt Xu.

The county town is very large and there are many shops, which are dazzling to see. But they are poor now, so they don’t dare to look around and go straight to Buzhuang.

Afraid that the people in the county would look down on people from the countryside, Aunt Xu and Aunt Qiao tidied up a lot and wiped the soles of their shoes clean before they dared to enter the cloth village.

As soon as he saw the person, he said with a smile: "Shopkeeper, is there any big red cloth here? Bring one out for us to see. Our family is having a wedding in June and we need to buy a big red cloth to make a wedding dress."

Seeing that they were poorly dressed, the shopkeeper casually asked the waiter to get a piece of red cloth, and said: "This foot of red cloth costs three hundred cents. If you don't buy it, don't touch it. If you touch it, you will have to pay for it!"

"What, a foot of red cloth costs three hundred cents?!" Aunt Qiao was so shocked that her hands were shaking: "Why is it so expensive? In our hometown, the most expensive one foot of red cloth was only two hundred cents."

It's a hundred cents more expensive. How long does it take for a farmer to earn this hundred cents?
