Farmhouse Golden Phoenix

Chapter 57

In the end, although the family members of those few people were crying, the elders still showed no mercy and gave two solutions - one is compensation, which is according to what was said before, how much the Su family's corn was sold for, They will pay according to the original price, no matter how they distribute it in private, anyway, after making a deposit, the Su family only needs to ask one of them for money.

Second, that is rod punishment.The power of the senior elders is still relatively large, and they can impose certain punishments within their own jurisdiction.Fifteen sticks per person, let Li Hu be imprisoned beside him, and the elders will choose people to execute the sentence.

The first punishment, the time limit is ten days.The second penalty was to be imposed on the spot.

Su Qinghe originally planned to finish it, but in the end Su Zhang took her home, and did not see how the elders and the others carried out the cane punishment.However, this incident finally sounded the alarm for the people in the village - the Su family is not a good-tempered person, if they really angered the Su family, they would fight to the end.

A few days later, shopkeeper Yang came over and took away the last acre of corn.The Su family finally breathed a sigh of relief. As long as they take care of the remaining six acres of land and bring them home in another month, the corn matter will finally be settled.

"Father, did shopkeeper Yang give you the rest of the money?" Su Qinghe was most concerned about this issue, Su Jingsen nodded, and rubbed Su Qinghe's head with a smile: "It's still lucky for Xiaohe, just because of the tenderness of the four acres. The corn was sold for more than 1000 taels of silver at once, and now our family has made a fortune."

"Really?" Su Qinghe was also overjoyed. Su Jingsen nodded and did the math for Su Qinghe: "Treasurer Yang said before that a corn is worth a hundred copper coins. In our acre of land, the most is four thousand corns, and the least is Two thousand, four mu of land is about 1000 thousand corns in total, so if you calculate it, it’s not more than [-] taels?"

Su Qinghe couldn't help being overjoyed, with this 1000 taels of silver, if she wanted to buy another [-] mu of land, that would be enough.Now the eldest brother and the second brother are studying in the town, and it is very troublesome to go back and forth. With this money, they can buy a house in the town.

Well, not in the town, the two elder brothers will still go to the county to study in the future, and the longest plan is to buy a house in the county.But the county is too far away from my home. It would be uneconomical to buy land here and a house there.

Su Jingsen didn't know the twists and turns in Su Qinghe's heart, he only knew that he had never seen so many bank notes in his whole life.Didn't even dare to think about it.At the beginning, I just wanted to have dozens of taels of silver, renovate the family house, marry the two sons, and then marry the daughter off in a good manner.

Even, a few hundred taels was his limit, and he couldn't think of a bigger number.

However, he didn't expect his daughter to give him such a big pie. 1000 taels of silver, if they are all exchanged into copper plates, how many boxes will it take to fill them up?Even if he doesn't eat or drink, he probably won't earn a fraction in his life, right?
Sure enough, just like what the old Taoist said, this girl in my family, if she survives a catastrophe, she will have future blessings, and the future blessings are too great.

For several days in a row, both Su Jingsen and Su Zhang felt that they were living in a dream, and the smirk on their faces never fell.It wasn't until night that I realized that my cheeks were stiff.

"Father, have you ever thought about what we will use such a large sum of money for?" Su Qinghe thought about it for a long time, and finally asked, Su Jingsen nodded with a smile: "I have thought about it, let's buy another few hundred acres land, continue to plant corn and make more money!"

"Father, I have already told you that next year, or the year after, this corn will be worthless." Su Qinghe curled her lips, grabbed Su Jingsen's arm and said, "This money-making thing can only be obtained when no one else has it." If everyone around you grows corn, there will be more corn, and then, who will buy it? We can just grow some at home. Therefore, we can’t make money like this, we still have to be down-to-earth Just plant the land."

Su Jingsen nodded again and again: "Yes, you are right, then what shall we do next? Girl, tell me, if it works, Dad will do as you say."

"Buying land is a must. Our family still has a little land now, and then we need to buy a house. Dad, you go back and forth to pick up my elder brother and second brother every day. Don't you feel tired? We bought a house, so you don't have to be so tired " Su Qinghe said quickly, Su Jingsen shook her head: "Father is not tired, seeing you are happy, dad is also happy."

"Father, how about we move to the county?" Su Qinghe blinked and asked with a smile, Su Jingsen immediately hesitated, it is not empty talk that the homeland is hard to leave.He has lived in the village for so many years and is surrounded by familiar people.When you meet people when you go out, you can say a few words, and if you have something to do, you can ask the people in the village for help.

The most important thing is that the relatives, parents, and brothers are all in the village.There are also a lot of relatives around, from my own side, from my father-in-law's mother-in-law, there are at least [-] households in total, can I leave them all?
"Well, when your brothers come back, let's discuss it? This county is full of people. If we move to the county, won't we have no land?" Su Jingsen thought for a while and said, Su Qinghe didn't force it, anyway, no matter what Anyway, one day they will move.

Early or late, it doesn't matter.Anyway, she is quite reluctant to part with her current home. After all, it took several months to build it. The layout of the home was all made by her and her mother. If she really wanted to move, she had to do it first. Be mentally prepared.

It's just that Su Qinghe won't have time to make mental preparations.Because it was almost October, the ripe corn should be harvested, the peanuts should be harvested, the yams she planted should also be dug up, and the cotton bolls in the backyard should also be exploded, waiting for the cotton to be picked.

With all these things, Su Qinghe can't wait to grow superhuman.

Fortunately, the family was rich, so they hired part-time workers early. As long as she helped Mrs. Su Zhang prepare three meals a day, pick cotton in the backyard, and explain how to dig yams in the field, it was basically no big deal. up.

"Does Su Jingsen belong to this village?" One day, Su Qinghe was returning from the field when he saw a carriage stopped on the road, and the groom sat on the carriage and lowered his head and asked.Su Qinghe was very surprised. In their village, there were ox carts and donkey carts. It was this horse cart, which was rare to see.

"Yes, you have something to do with him?" Su Qinghe suppressed the doubts in her heart, raised her head and asked, the driver flicked his whip twice impatiently: "You little girl, why do you ask so many questions? Just tell us, Su Just live wherever Jingsen lives!"

Su Qinghe frowned: "He's not at home now, what's your hurry to find him? If you're in a hurry, I'll call someone for you. If you're not in a hurry, just wait. He'll be back at night."

This person had a bad attitude, and Su Qinghe didn't know him well, so he was not very polite.

The man flicked his whip: "Hey, you little girl, you're so quick-talking. You go to Su Jingsen and say it's urgent. The county magistrate wants to see him. Do you think it's urgent? Hurry up, it's too late." You can't afford it!"

Su Qinghe's heart sank. She had heard a lot about the county magistrate before. According to the conclusion, the county magistrate is a corrupt official!What would happen if such a corrupt official came to their house?Especially, their family just sold corn and made a lot of money, if this county magistrate...

The more Su Qinghe thought about it, the more frightened she became. If the county magistrate really had his eyes on their family's money, then with their current power, they would definitely not be able to beat the magistrate. Among the people she knew, there seemed to be no one who could match up with the magistrate. Is it possible that the person who is fighting with the magistrate of the county is really going to be ruined by the magistrate of the county?
"Why is the magistrate looking for my father? You told me the same thing." Su Qinghe bit her lips. Although she was panicking in her heart, she still had to hold back her face. It is unlikely to reach the ears of the magistrate.

After all, there are many merchants in the county, and they are much richer than Su Qinghe's family.The magistrate of the county probably doesn't think much of their family's 1000 taels of silver, right?

"Hey, you are Su Jingsen's daughter? She looks pretty good! But, I can only tell your father, not a girl. Hurry up and take us to find your father, otherwise, I will Take a whip to beat you!"

The man raised the whip in his hand and grinned threateningly. It just so happened that Su Jingsen came back from the field with a water jar. Seeing this situation, he panicked instantly, and hurried over to hold Su Qinghe in his arms: "Who are you? You What are you going to do?"

"I'm here to find Su Jingsen, take us there quickly, or else, the whip in my hand is not a vegetarian!" the man said arrogantly, Su Jingsen frowned, and pulled Su Qinghe behind him: "I am Su Jingsen, What do you want me to do?"

"You are Su Jingsen?" The man looked him up and down, and Su Jingsen nodded: "I am, what do you want me for?"

"We are here to convey the order of the magistrate of the county to let you go to the Yamen. Someone will report that you are selling grain. Go back to the county office!"

The man didn't talk nonsense, he immediately raised his head and said, pointing to Su Qinghe: "Since your daughter is here, then you can go with us now, just let your daughter go back and say something."

After he finished speaking, he jumped out of the carriage and lifted the curtain: "Uncle Dong, Uncle Chen, Su Jingsen is here, let's arrest him directly?"

After a long time, two yawning men came out. They were wearing black clothes, which were exactly the same, probably for the arresters. They also carried a big knife in their hands, and they looked rather domineering.

"This is Su Jingsen? Take it away!" One of the men glanced at Su Jingsen, jumped off the carriage, and gestured with his hand: "Are you going up by yourself or let us carry you up?"

Su Qinghe was in a hurry, grabbed Su Jingsen's arm and said, "Who are you? You said that if you ask my father to go for you, my father will follow you? We won't go!"

"Not going?" The other arrester sneered, raised his eyebrows to look at Su Qinghe, and then touched his chin: "This chick looks good, I never thought there would be such a fair and clean girl in this country!"

"Xiao He go home first!" Su Jingsen immediately reached out and pushed Su Qinghe, and turned around to block the catcher's eyes: "I'll go with you, let's go now."

The policeman only looked at Su Qinghe who was being pushed away, snorted inexplicably, and then opened the curtain of the car and went in.The first arrester sneered and signaled: "Then get in the car, hurry up, the magistrate is still waiting."

Su Jingsen turned her head to Su Qinghe and said to Su Qinghe while getting into the carriage: "Go back quickly and tell your mother not to worry, if you have anything to ask, you can ask Uncle Song."

Just after finishing these two sentences, Su Jingsen was stretched out and pushed twice by the first policeman. Su Jingsen couldn't stand still, and suddenly fell down in the carriage. He didn't know where his head hit, and made a loud noise. .

Then there was the sound of laughter from inside the carriage, and the coachman pulled the reins without any surprise, turned the carriage around and walked along the same road.Su Qinghe didn't know how to think at all right now, her brain was in a mess.

Wanting to keep up, but knowing that there is no way to deal with the coachman and two policemen.Right now, she has no way to stop those people from taking Su Jingsen away.

The only thing to do is to go home and find someone to find a solution.
