Chapter 1482 Being Hit

Cao Qingping did not expect the county magistrate to be so generous. He directly gave ten acres of land to each person, regardless of their age. It was really great. With land, there would be food, and everyone's life would be guaranteed.

The six young men who were listening were also very excited. They lived in the mountains, and because they had no land, they had to go to places far away from the village to open up wasteland and cultivate crops. Not to mention that the land was full of rocks, they would often encounter large animals. To be honest, many of their relatives had been killed or injured by animals.

Moreover, crops will be destroyed by animals. It can be said that land and food are particularly precious things to them.

Xiao Zhang drove them out of the county town, and they arrived in just over half an hour. Looking at the vast expanse of white, the staff directed them to the boundary stone of Anping Village, "From this boundary stone to the west, you can enclose your own land, but I want to remind you that after you enclose the land, you must plant it all, and you can't leave it idle. The leadership team has studied it, and you won't be too strict in the first year, but in the second year, all the land must be planted."

"Of course, of course, comrade, can we determine the western boundary stone after the New Year? The main thing is that I need to go back and count how many houses we need to build, and I also need to come down again to determine where all the houses will be built."

"Okay, you can come find me when you're sure."

"Thank you for your hard work, comrade."

"It's not hard, it's my job."

Looking at this flat piece of land, the six people in the village were so happy that they wanted to decide now, but the clan leader was right. They still had to go back and decide how many houses to build and discuss it with everyone.

After Xiao Zhang sent them to the hotel, he sent the staff back and also returned to the base.

Cao Qingping and his family asked for a single room, with the father and daughter sharing one room, while Gangzi and his five companions lived in the big house, which saved money.

"Dad, are you feeling at ease now?"

"Yes, it's settled. Let's go back tomorrow and discuss it. Before the New Year comes, we can get more people to decide where to build the house."

"Dad, it's because we came here by plane, otherwise we might not be able to get here."

"It's okay. Both officers are good people. If not, just ask when the plane will arrive on the mountain and ask if they can give us a ride."

"Haha, are you addicted to flying?"

"Isn't it? That big iron thing can actually fly in the sky, and it can fly so fast. Go call Gangzi and the others over, and let's go out and ask how much we can exchange the things we brought down for before it gets dark."

The seven of them went out together. "Uncle Wu, shall we go to the pawn shop first?"

"Okay, let's go there. Commander Shen told us to ask more questions."

"This thing is worthless. Who knew it would be like this? It used to be worth a lot of money."

"Uncle Wu, please don't talk about the past."

Cao Qingping sighed. There was still some gold and silver in the village. He knew that gold and silver could be exchanged for money, but these jewelry, ornaments, calligraphy and paintings were worthless. He should sell them now.

In fact, he felt guilty. Although they did not rob the money, it was ill-gotten gains after all. He had thought about exchanging it for gold and silver before, but at that time, there was chaos and war, so he did not dare to go down the mountain.

Now it is peaceful, but the neighboring foreign countries are still at war, and the army at home has also gone there, so it is better to exchange it for gold and silver at this time. Who knows what will happen in the future?

Cao Qingping had taken out all the jewelry and two paintings at the hotel just now, and he carried them in his arms.

Gangzi and his friends had been to the pawnshop before and knew where it was, so they arrived there quickly.

The shopkeeper looked at the people who came in and roughly guessed what they were here for. "My fellow, are you here to pawn something?"

"Yes, shopkeeper, please take a look at the things left by the old man I brought here."

The shopkeeper looked at the large bag in the older man's arms and said, "Then go into the private room. It's too conspicuous outside."

Cao Qingping looked at the shopkeeper, who seemed to be friendly and would not steal his things. He gritted his teeth and followed him in.

The shopkeeper looked at the jewelry on the table, put on his glasses and examined each one, then looked at the calligraphy and paintings.

"My fellow countryman, these things are not valuable now. There are eleven pieces of jewelry in total, and the most you can give for one piece is 1.8 yuan. As for the calligraphy and paintings, they are not from famous artists, but are quite old and well preserved, so you should give them 1.8 yuan like the jewelry."

Cao Qingping was furious. His grandfather had told him that this thing was worth at least several dozen silver coins. He had asked about the current price of silver, and found that it was more than one yuan per tael in the bank. So this one was worth several dozen yuan. Even if it was worthless now, he couldn't give himself one yuan and eighteen yuan, right?
He didn't say anything and quickly packed up the jewelry.

"My fellow villager, why do you think the price I offer is too low? Go ask somewhere else, they won't give you the same price."

"I don't care about the price. I don't have to sell it."

"Okay, if you want to sell it in the future, come to me, I won't lower the price."

The seven people came out with anger suppressed. Gangzi and the other six young men all looked unhappy. "This is too much. How can you give such a small amount of money?"

Cao Qingping sighed, "Chief Shen said these are worthless, so we have to ask somewhere else."

I won't give up, I have to ask for everything. After all, this is everyone's money, even though I am the clan leader, I don't have the power to decide.

After asking clearly, we can discuss it with everyone when we return. This way we won't be blamed in the future.

If the money is too little, what about the house? Farm tools may not be enough, and we also need food and seeds.

The rest of the daily necessities can be made up, why is it so difficult? I have to give up again.

I went into the bank without giving up, and after asking, I found out that they really didn't accept these jewelry. I also asked about the purchase price of gold and silver. Originally, they said they would give a price based on the quality, and after much persuasion, they told me a rough price.

"Dad, that one piece is worth at least several dozen dollars. You just gave me more than one dollar. You are really too mean."

Cao Qingping sighed, "Let's go, let's go ask somewhere else, if they all give this little money, we'll take it back."

The seven people went to two grocery stores and a Russian trading company in succession. Everyone there was Chinese and it was easy to talk.

A shop only gave one dollar, while a Russian business gave one dollar and fifty cents.

Seven people came out of the business in a depressed mood.

"I didn't expect that the pawnshop would give the most, but it's too worthless. We carried so much and could only get so little money.

"It costs fifty or sixty dollars to build a house. Uncle Wu, even if we exchange all our treasures for money, it won't be enough to build a house. What should we do?"

Cao Qingping was also worried. He had originally discussed with a few elderly people about using the money to build a house, but what would he say when he returned?
I wish you success in the exam!
