Chapter 461 is really taking root
...
There are many ‘smart people’ like General Manager Yan.
The next day, as soon as the Yamen opened, several waves of people appeared at the same time. After meeting their eyes, they were all startled and ran towards the Yamen, fearing that if they were too late, their family would lose their gold mountain.
"Brother Zong, hurry up, stop them, don't let them take away our family's only chance to turn around." Wu Laoer shouted.
Wu Xingzong was as stupid as a bull. He immediately rushed over, knocked down one person, and dragged two more people down with his left and right hands. In the blink of an eye, he killed three waves of people by himself.
"Brother Zong is so good, he is worthy of being the eldest grandson of our family!"
Hearing Wu Laoer's complimentary words, Wu Xingzong was proud of his face and jumped up, bang, Another man and a woman were thrown down.
Click, a crisp sound, the old man’s arm was injured.
"Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, hand, hand, my hand is broken, it hurts me so much!" Mr. Tang was encouraged by the widow, his best friend, and came to buy a mountain with his best friend early in the morning, but he didn't know that he hadn't entered the Yamen yet. He was knocked down and his hand was unfortunately broken.
"Ah, Master, what's wrong with you?" Widow Mei cried out, immediately rushed towards Master Tang, pointed at Wu Xingzong and said: "Which barbarian are you from? You dare to hurt people for no reason. Do you know who you hurt? This It’s Mr. Tang, the owner of the largest clothing store in our county... You have to apologize and pay, otherwise we will go to the Yamen and sue you.”
It must be said that Widow Mei had a few moments where even when she was angry and cursed, she would hold her voice in her throat. In this Northeastern state that relies on yelling, she spoke like this. It has the style of Jiangnan soft language.
Hearing that Mr. Tang had stopped complaining about her, he comforted her with heartache: "Meier, please don't cry..."
Hooray, Wu Xingzong took advantage of the two of them to be pretentious and ran away. Unfortunately, he bumped into Secretary Guan: "Youyu."
"Yes." Youyu kicked Wu Xingzong over, grabbed his arm and twisted it, and Wu Xingzong was captured.
"Guan, Guan Shuli!" Wu Xingzong was shocked, why did he meet this cold-faced god again? Where is he on errands? Why did I meet him in Taifeng Town? How could I still meet him in the county government office?
He quickly complained again: "Guan Shuli, I just bumped into them accidentally and didn't hurt him at all... His arm was broken long ago, and he deliberately picked on me!"
< br>Guan Shuli only said one sentence: "Bring him into the Yamen, and he will make his own decision."
"Secretary, leave it to us." Upon seeing this, the Yamen guard came over, stuffed the cloth ball he carried with him into Wu Xingzong's mouth, and blocked him After shouting, he was escorted into the Yamen.
"Uh huh!" Wu Xingzong shouted, but it was of no use.
Upon seeing this, Mr. Tang was very proud and felt that the Yamen was on his side. He began to push the envelope and came over to Secretary Guan and said: "Secretary Guan, I, the Tang family in Buzhuang, want to buy two mountains. I would like to ask Secretary Guan to help open the contract." . "
Secretary Guan's face darkened, and he looked at the people who were running towards the Yamen, and laughed angrily... They were all like evil ghosts, only caring about their own gluttony and not caring about the lives of others.
Thankfully Brother Qin reminded him, and thankless he rushed to the Yamen overnight to tell the ban on buying mountains, otherwise I don’t know how many hills would have been bought by these evil spirits today.
Guan Shuli ignored Mr. Tang and walked towards the Yamen.
Master Tang was ignored and became angry: "Secretary Guan, did you hear that? You are the clerk of the Yamen. It is your responsibility to open the contract. How can you ignore others?!"< br>
Widow Mei was afraid that the hilltop promised to her by Master Tang would be lost, so she immediately supported Master Tang to chase after her, and said in a hooked voice: "Master, you are the owner of the largest cloth shop in our county, and this little clerk is so... … Mei'er felt aggrieved for the master."
With such compliments, Master Tang felt that he was very good again, and immediately promised: "Meier, let's go with the master to see the county magistrate. The master has decided to buy the mountain for delivery today. You!”
After hearing this, Widow Mei was overjoyed and flattered Jia Ziyin: “Ah, the master is actually acquainted with the county magistrate. He is worthy of being the owner of the largest cloth shop in the county. Mei’er was the owner in her previous life. Accumulated With so much merit, I can meet the master in this life..."
This boast made Mr. Tang so beautiful that he forgot about the pain in his arms. He held his head high and his chest high, as virile as a rooster, and stepped into the Yamen with Widow Mei.
But after taking just a few steps, I was so frightened that I almost ran out.
Bang bang bang!
The yamen servant beat Wu Er and his wife with a stick, and cursed: "I told you that the yamen will temporarily stop the business on the mountain. Don't you understand the human language? You still want to rush in, and you dare to say that we are lying. , I stopped you just to help other people buy mountains!”
“Calm down, Mr. Cha, we know we were wrong, stop fighting!” Wu Er ran away with his head in his arms, begging for mercy.
The other groups of people saw this and did not dare to rush. After seeing Secretary Guan, some of them who knew him came over and asked: "Secretary Guan, is it true that the Yamen has suspended buying mountains?" The official glanced at him and nodded: "Well, I wrote the documents yesterday and will send them to various towns this morning. We are doing things according to the law."
The relevant criminal laws were read again.
After hearing this, several waves of people who came to buy the mountain expressed their regrets... It was only one day away! If they had come to buy it yesterday morning, they would have made a lot of money.
After all, mountains are cheap. You only need to spend about a hundred taels of silver to buy about 200 acres of mountain land.
From then on, as long as they guard the mountain pass, collect money from the folks who go into the mountains to dig medicinal materials, and then take a commission from the medicinal materials they dig, they will get two incomes, and this income will never end. !
Now, it’s all gone.
Guan Shuli said: "If you don't believe it, just wait a moment, the Yamen will soon put up a notice prohibiting buying mountains."
After saying that, he ignored them and only told the yamen: "Wu Xingzong of the Wu family has injured Mr. Tang of Buzhuang. The yamen needs to make a decision. You should be optimistic about the Wu family present and don't let any Wu family escape."
"Yes." The officials responded.
Wu Er and his wife were shocked.
Wu’s second daughter-in-law was so angry, why did Wu Xingzong cause a case just a moment after they separated? This idiot is really bad at what he does!
"Uh huh!" Wu Xingzong shouted to Wu Er and his wife, asking Wu Er and his wife to help him.
It's a pity that Wu's second daughter-in-law has long wanted to kill him and take over everything in the Wu family. She just wants him to die in the yamen, so there is no way she can help him.
……
Clang, clang, clang!
A new notice was posted on the notice board at the gate of the Yamen, and Team Leader Zhou shouted: "According to Wei law and the county order, from now on, the sale of mountainous areas in the county is prohibited for one year!!"
As soon as the notice came out, the county town exploded.
Some wealthy families were so angry that they secretly scolded Kang County Magistrate for cutting off their wealth.
But most of the villagers cried with joy: "The county magistrate is so kind, he saved the lives of us poor people!"
If there was no such notice, then even if they learned to recognize the medicinal materials, they would be useless. Dig medicinal materials for them.
"Hey, the Yamen moved very quickly, and the notice was issued so early." As soon as Uncle Qin arrived at the Yamen Gate, he saw everyone watching the notice, and he was relieved.
"Brother Qin, you are here." Secretary Guan saw several people from the Qin family and came over to greet them: "It's almost time. Come in with me."
"Eh." Grandpa Qin dragged away Uncle Qin who wanted to watch the excitement, took Jiang Dalang and Qin Cunquan with him, and followed Secretary Guan into the Yamen.
Not long after, other scribes who came to the Yamen to register also arrived.
Grandpa Qin looked outside the hut and counted only twelve people.
There were more than a hundred people who took the test, and only twelve people were selected, which was more difficult than taking the county examination.
Grandpa Qin was very happy and even more grateful to Secretary Guan.
...
More than half an hour later, Qin Cunquan and the others returned, carrying two plain-headed hats with the word "official" embroidered on them, a thick paper certificate, and an iron scribe's plaque. Go happily The first pass: "Uncle Wu, Azhuang, Dalang, look at it quickly."
Second Uncle Qin was very disgusted: "What's so good about it."
Pa, Qin was hit on the back of the head. Grandpa slapped him.
Grandpa Qin caressed these things that showed his identity as a scribe, and said with emotion: "Aquan is promising... we, we can be considered to have truly taken root."
