Chapter 265

County magistrate Zhao looked at Si Qing with a smile: "Little girl, the sheep mountain is so big, and the price is not low. Are you sure you can buy it?"

Seeing that County Magistrate Zhao was not fooled, Si Qing was immediately disappointed.

Xin Dao really deserves to be an official, his brain is fine.

Si Qing put away his sweet smile, sat down on a chair, pouted his mouth, and said in a childlike voice, "It depends on what you want, sir, compared with a mountain, which is more important."

As soon as County Magistrate Zhao heard what she meant, this little girl wanted to exchange peacocks for sheep.

He couldn't help laughing.

I thought to myself that this girl is surprisingly courageous, the peacock is a tribute, if it is replaced by someone else's family, let alone use the peacock to negotiate terms, I am afraid that I can let the government take it away immediately, for fear of causing disadvantages to my family.

This little girl is not only not afraid, but also wants to use it to negotiate terms.

Should she be said to be reckless?Or lack of reverence for imperial power?

Magistrate Zhao thought about it, the smile on his face suddenly disappeared, and he looked at Si Qing seriously.

He said: "Little girl, do you know that if someone else came here today instead of me, your village might be arrested for stealing royal tributes and sent to prison?"

"My lord, if that's the case, he will naturally not be able to see the peacock. If he wants to get credit for nothing, if he wants to exchange the life of my Dajia Village for honor, it depends on whether he has the life to live until then!"

Si Qing sneered, and his small face showed a bit of coldness unique to those in positions of power.

Magistrate Zhao's heart sank.

Suddenly, he burst out laughing again, pointed at Si Qing and said helplessly, "Little girl Si Qing, do you know that if the words you said today were spread, you might not be able to see the sun tomorrow?"

"So, I believe Mr. Zhao and the few people you brought here shouldn't be gossips, right?" Si Qing also smiled innocently and cutely.

County magistrate Zhao shook his head and sighed: "Go and bring the peacock. Since you want to exchange it for the mountain of sheep, at least let me see if it's worth it, right?"

Si Qing raised his eyebrows, but didn't object, he turned his head to look at Li Daya: "Go and bring the peacock here to show Mr. Zhao."

"Okay, auntie." Li Daya nodded and ran out.

While running, he secretly wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

God, the conversation between my aunt and the county magistrate just now really made her sweat.

My aunt is also too powerful, she dared to directly threaten the magistrate without angering him. Li Daya really admired her courage and eloquence.

No wonder even tigers can be subdued, my aunt is really extraordinary!
It's just that what does my aunt want Yang Shan to do?

Is it really for hunting to make money?
Li Daya was a little puzzled.

Si Zhengping was as puzzled as she was.

God knows how nervous he was when his aunt confronted County Magistrate Zhao because of the sheep mountain just now. Seeing County Magistrate Zhao's face change, he almost couldn't help but speak well for his aunt.

But his aunt glanced at him and stopped him.

He really didn't understand that even if Yangshan was not under the name of his aunt, it would not affect Qiongqi's hunting. Why did his aunt insist on the ownership of Yangshan?
Si Zhengping was full of doubts in his heart, but it was definitely not appropriate to ask now, so he could only bury it in his heart.

A heart, it's like a cat scratching, it's unbearably uncomfortable.

Not long after, Li Daya brought the peacock over.

After a night of serving in the warm room, eating and taking care of him, the peacock is now full of energy, and even the dull coat color before is brightened.
