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

In the evening, Grandpa Qin and the others finally arrived at the intersection of Ghost Village.

People from the Chai and Zhang families had been waiting by the roadside for a long time. When they saw them coming back, a group of people ran over and asked, "How about it, have you bought the land? How much is it per acre? How much did you buy?!"

Zhang Niuwang said: "I bought it. The land I live in is only one tael of silver per acre, which is a whole tael cheaper than our hometown!"

Zhongyuan Prefecture has more people but less land, so the land is more expensive. Northeast Prefecture has a larger land, and they also bypassed the district chief and the official office. They were not charged extra money and bought it at the homestead price stipulated by the government office.

"What? It's so cheap, God bless you!" Zhang Niuwang's wife hurriedly bowed to the east sky.

"Keep your voice down, don't shout loudly, so as not to make others jealous." After Zhang Niuwang said something to his wife, he called to the Chai and Zhang families: "This is not a place to talk outside. Let's go back first and then talk when we get home... …Take the trails.”

Taking the main road, I was afraid of being stopped and questioned by other people in the village.

"Yes, yes, yes, let's take the small road back." Chai and Zhang's family followed Grandpa Qin and others, walked through the fields, crossed the river outside the village, and went to the west of the village. From the west of the village, they went around to the old tree house in the village.

In the old house in the west of the village, the women of Qin Jiang, Xu Qiao's family were also waiting. When they saw Grandpa Qin and the others coming back, they hurriedly opened the door to greet them.

As soon as Grandpa Qin sat down, he asked: "Have you bought it? Has the price increased?"

Grandpa Qin said with a smile: "I am very lucky today. I met the official Guan Shuli. With his help, the land price is still one tael of silver."

He also took out the topographic map of the ghost village drawn by Jiang Dalang: "I bought all the land near the west entrance of the village, including the land for the well. I also bought the back mountain path and the unopened land nearby... Linlin always has thirteen acres, let's My family bought five acres, and Dalang’s family bought two acres.”

The other six acres of land were bought by the Xu family, Qin Cunquan, Qin Dayan, Qin Dashi, Qin Eryong, and Qin Lao, each with one acre of land.

In addition to what they bought previously, each family now has at least two or three acres of homestead land. Even if there are two brothers like the Xu family, it will be enough to build separate houses in the future.

Qin Xiaomi's family has seventeen acres of land, and Jiang Dalang's family has eight acres.

"Just buy it." Grandma Qin sighed and looked at Qin Xiaomi: "Xiaomi, you are not allowed to buy residential land in the future. Our family can't build so many houses. Buying too much residential land is a waste of money... This time Land, the one that can be bought with some profit is the water well land, from now on we can draw water and no one will stop us."

Grandma Qin felt that the other land was worthless.

Qin Xiaomi said: "Grandma, don't worry about the money. We can earn it back, but if the good land is robbed, the intersection is blocked, and the well is occupied, it will be difficult for us to live a comfortable life."

Grandma Qin said: "Although what you say makes sense, money is not that easy to earn. Let's save some money... We have to save money for the winter. The winter here is difficult. If we don't prepare enough money, I'm afraid we won't be able to survive it." .”

He was afraid that Qin Xiaomi would be unhappy if he read too much, so he smiled and said, "It's been a tiring day. Grandma won't talk anymore and will cook for you."

"Thank you grandma, let me help you." Qin Xiaomi went to help.

While waiting for dinner, Qin Xiaomi noticed that Qiao Lizi's eyes were very red and she had obviously cried. She must have known that she had not bought a red cloth for her wedding dress.

When going to bed that night, Qin Xiaomit said to Qiao Lizi: "Sister Lizi, I will take care of your red wedding dress. I promise to let you get married in style... I am telling the truth and I won't lie to you."

Qiao Lizi smiled and said: "I am very satisfied that we can survive and live a stable life now. As for the red wedding dress, it doesn't matter whether we have it or not."

"There must be, you have to believe me." Qin Xiaomi was like a magician who had been trying to trick Qiao Lizi into believing her all night.

As a result, when they woke up the next day, the two of them had dark circles under their eyes, as if they had beaten each other up.

"Xiaomi, are you okay?" Jiang Dalang came to ask her, a little worried.

Qin Xiaomi yawned and said, "It's okay."

Jiang Dalang thought that she was troubled by making red cloth, so he said: "If you need help with making red cloth, just tell me and I will help you and trust you." Qin Xiaomi didn't sleep well. My mind was a little confused and I didn't have time to deal with him, so I just said: "Okay, okay, I will definitely find you to do the hard work when the cloth is dyed... Give way, I have to wash my face."

Jiang Dalang was very happy and said: "Okay."

……

In the following days, Jiang Dalang was more active than Qin Xiaomi. He asked Qin Xiaomi every two days: "Xiaomi, are you going to start dyeing cloth? Is there anything you need me to do?"

Qin Xiaomi was so annoyed that he wanted to beat him up, but finally couldn't bear it anymore and gritted his teeth and said: "It's only May now, give the grass some time to grow up, and ask again in June!"

In the sixth month of the lunar calendar, the vegetation is lush and lush, so she has enough raw materials to dye cloth.

"Okay." Jiang Dalang responded with a smile, looking at Qin Xiaomi with increasingly gentle eyes, which burned Qin Xiaomi and made him look bad: "There is something wrong with you."

She actually likes fierce people, so should she pretend to be a bitch to scare him away?

Grandpa Qin was afraid that Jiang Dalang would be hurt by being scolded, so he shouted: "Dalang, go knock the stick and tell everyone that it is already the middle of May and the bean seeds have not been planted in the wasteland. You must plant them quickly to avoid being unable to pay at the end of the year." Pay the grain tax."

"Hey." Jiang Dalang took the stick and beat it all the way to notify the villagers.

Soybean seeds have been planted in all the wasteland of the nine families of Qin Jiang, Xu Qiao... Soybeans are the bean among the five grains, and they are a cheap coarse grain often eaten by the poor in the Wei Dynasty.

The same goes for the people in the village, who grow soybeans because other seeds are too expensive and they cannot afford them.

Grandpa Qin asked Jiang Dalang to urge him. After a few days, everyone in the village had planted the beans.

Grandpa Qin went to Wu Li's house and told him about the important farming matter.

Wu Li was very satisfied and said with a smile: "Brother Qin is indeed a capable man. This village chief has done a good job... We should also keep an eye on the fine for not getting married. Anyone who has not paid the fine before the end of June , those who are not married must report it."

Grandpa Qin nodded: "Hey, don't worry, Mr. Wu, I will remember it all."

Wu Li smiled and asked again: "I heard that Brother Qin's family has bought another land? It seems that your family's arrowroot food business is doing very well."

Grandpa Qin said: "It is becoming increasingly difficult to eat kudzu powder. I only earn a few hundred pennies a day, and nine families have to share the profits... I only bought a few acres of homestead land. It is really scary to run away. Buying a few more acres of homestead land will give you peace of mind.”

He also promised: "I will never buy a house again in the future. I have to save money to repair the house. Otherwise, if it snows, the house will collapse."

Wu Lichang did not ask about this matter again, and after chatting for a while, he let Grandpa Qin go.

Not long after, Wu Laosi came out of the back room, twisted his waist, stretched his legs, kicked the chair where Grandpa Qin had been sitting, and cursed: "This Qin family is really evil, they do everything one step ahead of us. Now that most of the good land in the ghost village has been bought by his family, what else should we buy? How should we explain it to the county magistrate?"

Wu Lichang glared at him and said: "Shut up, if you dare to mention those two words again, don't blame the higher ups for not needing you to do it!"

"Hey, Uncle Wu, don't be angry. It was Xiaosi who made a mistake. I don't dare to say anything nonsense in the future." Wu Laosi hurriedly apologized to Wu Lichang.

Listening to his soft and thin voice, Wu Lizhang felt a little disgusted and warned: "If you are a whore like me, how can you get married and have sex with others when you are looked at?!"

Then he complained: “I don’t know why I chose you.”

Wu Laosi pursed his lips and smiled: "Of course it's because I'm the most suitable. Otherwise, why don't we let my father come out? He is already so old. If he takes a concubine, it will arouse people's suspicion and it will not be good for us to do things."
