Chapter 107 Buying Land
Farmers regard land as their life and will not sell it unless they have to.

And the farmers who had no choice but to sell their land were forced by others. The purpose of the persecutors was to annex the land, so how could they let the land fall into the hands of others?

The original owner, Bai Yaolang, was also forced to sell the only six acres of land in the family, and the person who bought the land was none other than the shopkeeper of the Golden House Casino!
Bai Zhiqing recently found out about this by inquiring about the land purchase. The usual routine of the Golden House Casino is to defraud the loan, and then the shopkeeper will send someone to buy the land at a low price. If the debtor needs the money urgently, the land will be sold at a low price.

Of course, there are many ways for casinos to make profits, and buying land at a low price is only one of them.

Bai Zhiqing thought that since Yaxing had no information on the land sale, why not go to the casino shopkeeper and buy back the six acres of land that the original owner had previously sold.

Although the six acres of land is less, it is better than nothing.

At the entrance of the Golden House Casino, the ghost-faced Zhang saw Bai Zhiqing, the evil star coming again, his scalp tightened, and he immediately greeted: "Master Bai, are you here again? Do you want to play a few games today?"

How many times did you play?Bai Zhiqing glanced at the ghost face, this kid can't speak but he likes to chat awkwardly.

When Ghost Mian Zhang saw Bai Zhiqing's skin and flesh but not smiling, his heart was filled with panic, and he said with a dry laugh, "Master Bai, please."

After Bai Zhiqing entered the casino, he went directly to the shopkeeper of the casino and stated his intention: "Manager, not long ago, you asked someone to buy my six acres of land. Now I have enough money and want to buy it back. I wonder if you are willing to sell it?"

The shopkeeper looked at Bai Zhiqing in disbelief, thinking that Bai Zhiqing was stupid in reading, right? Did he really think that he would be amazing if he passed the county exam?Does this want to use "power" to oppress people?

The shopkeeper snorted disdainfully, not to mention that Bai Zhiqing has only passed the county exam now, not even the government exam, even if Bai Zhiqing passes the academy exam in the future, he will only be a scholar!
With Dong Jin's backstage, could he be afraid of a mere scholar? !

The only answer to Bai Zhiqing was a neat two words, "Don't sell!"

Bai Zhiqing lowered his head and chuckled, "Hehe, shopkeeper, I'm afraid Young Master Jin doesn't know about the fact that you sent someone to buy the fertile land of the debtor at a low price?

I think that over the years, you have bought more than six acres of land in my family, relying on your identity as the shopkeeper of the Golden House Casino.

You said, if Young Master Jin found out about this, how would he handle it? "

The shopkeeper's expression softened, and he squinted and stared at Bai Zhiqing for a while, before he said in a deep voice, "Are you threatening me?"

Bai Zhiqing smiled softly, "So what?"

The shopkeeper lowered his eyes and pondered, Bai Zhiqing's force was strong, if he could not subdue the opponent with the usual methods of the casino, this time he could only admit it.

"Bai Langjun, it's boring for you to say that. What I just said was just a joke. You really misunderstood me, there's nothing to hide from the owner of buying land in private.

I just wanted to help you because you were having a hard time before, and it was also to solve your urgent needs, but now it's my fault. "

Bai Zhiqing couldn't help but sneer, this shopkeeper really knows how to quibble, he has done evil things, but he pretends to do good things.

"So, the shopkeeper is doing good deeds?"

"Don't dare to take it, the trivial things are not worth mentioning."

Bai Zhiqing found that he really underestimated the shopkeeper. He didn't expect this person to be so thick-skinned. He could clearly hear the sarcasm in his words, but he was still calm.

He didn't want to talk too much nonsense with the shopkeeper, and asked directly, "So the shopkeeper is willing to sell the land back to me?"

Shopkeeper: Now that the handle is being held by you, you have to be willing and willing...

"Of course, after all, I originally asked people to come forward to buy your land to solve your urgent needs. Since you are rich now, you can buy it back if you want. As for the price..."

The shopkeeper of the casino just had the idea of ​​letting Bai Zhiqing repurchase at a premium, but he immediately put it out.

"The price is the original price of two taels of silver per mu. You see, I don't even charge any interest. I really want to do good deeds."

Bai Zhiqing sneered in his heart and thanked him: "Then I would like to thank the shopkeeper."

After he finished speaking, he asked again, "I wonder if the shopkeeper has other idle fields? If there is, I would like to buy some more."

There are tens of thousands of cotton seeds in his hands, and six acres of land are not enough.

The shopkeeper scolded secretly, this Bai Zhiqing actually beat the snake on the stick, so brazen!
But he believed that even if Bai Zhiqing guessed that he wanted to annex fields, he would definitely have no evidence in his hands.In addition to him, the brother-in-law who came forward to buy land for him knew where the land was, and he was not afraid.

"How can there be free fields, Bai Langjun, you really misunderstood me, I'm just a shopkeeper, how can I have so much money to buy land. I saw that you were a good person before I helped you in an emergency. Others can be here with me. Not treated like that."

Tsk tsk tsk, this shopkeeper is really talking nonsense when he opens his mouth, and he can say that it is good to be a human even with the virtues of the original owner, Bai Yaolang.

"Then thank the shopkeeper for his love."

Bai Zhiqing took the other party's handle just to buy back his own land, not to extort the other party. Since the shopkeeper didn't want to sell more, he didn't force it.

After negotiating the matter, the two went to the yamen and hired Li Dian as the middle man to change the land deed.

It's just that six mu of land is still too little, nearly half of the ten mu they planned. If they can't buy land, they can only rent it.

Leaseable land is not an easy task. Landlords will not rent out their own land casually. If they want to rent the other party's land, they need to sign a very strict contract.

One of them is that Bai Zhiqing will never accept, that is, the landlord will get [-]-[-]% of the output of the field, and there is a minimum amount, but no maximum.

He didn't want to let the landlord take most of the profits in vain.

The landlord's rent was not enough, so Bai Zhiqing wanted to ask the village chief for help.

It is not easy to ask for help, so Bai Zhiqing went to the village chief's house with two pieces of dried meat from his home.

The village chief was squinting comfortably, and the old god was basking in the sun in the courtyard.

Bai Zhiqing knocked on the open courtyard door and said hello, "Hello, the village chief, how about the sun? The sun is good today, let's get more sun to nourish... keep your body healthy."

Not taking care of yourself?The village chief opened his eyes, what is this kid talking about?

But when he saw Bai Zhiqing holding the jerky in his hand, he felt at ease again, this kid must have come to ask him to do something.

"It turned out to be Zhiqing, why are you here today?"

Bai Zhiqing handed over two pieces of jerky and said with a smile, "Village Chief, the dried pork dried at home has just been prepared in the past two days, so I brought two specially for you to taste."

After staying in the Daqing Dynasty for a long time, Bai Zhiqing also learned to speak honorifics.

The village chief took it with a smile, and said, "Zhiqing, if you have something to say in front of me, just say it directly, don't go around the corner."

Being pierced by the village chief, Bai Zhiqing was not ashamed, and said directly, "I came to you today to ask for something."
