Chapter 457 457. Unusual

"Don't worry about it. Just tell the truth about what you saw and heard when you went to Huajia Village a year ago." Liu Yongping looked seriously at the two people below.

"Yes……"

"Sir, more than a year ago, my subordinates were ordered to go to Huajia Village to distribute medicine, but they returned in vain. No one lives in Huajia Village, and the village is in ruins," Li Sandao said.

"Is it just ruins? Is there anything else, such as a wall or something?" Mr. Liu stared at the two of them closely. Li Sanweidong did not dare to look at the adults and lowered his head in a hurry.

However, before bowing their heads, the two of them looked at each other. It was obvious that they did not understand the meaning of the adult's question, but they were still trying to recall the trip to Huajia Village in their minds.

"Sir, the village is in ruins like other villages after the disaster. There are no walls." Wei Dong said thoughtfully.

"What Wei Dong said is what my subordinates want to say. Your Majesty and your subordinates did not see any walls in Huajia Village," Li San said immediately.

Both of them were so sure that the county magistrate's eyes flashed and he waved to them.

"It's okay, you go down."

Sun Shangcheng was also very discerning and followed the two of them out, not forgetting to hold his household registration book before leaving.

"Hu Hu, what do you think?" The county magistrate cast his dark eyes at Hu Hu.

"Sir, as Li Sanweidong and the others said, if I remember correctly, this means that the wall in Huajia Village was built after the outbreak of the plague. However, everyone else had no time to take care of themselves, but Huajia Village was able to use their spare time to build the wall. My lord, Huajia Village is probably unusual. ah!"

The county magistrate also thought so. Building a wall is very simple, but building a tall wall around a large village is not that simple.

Isn't this really unusual?

The county magistrate is becoming more and more interested in Huajia Village.

In Huajia Village, Hua Jin, the policeman who followed them all the way back to the village, had discovered it early, but he didn't mean any harm to him, so he could follow him if he wanted.

After all, it is impossible for them to keep a low profile when selling such a large amount of food. In addition, it is difficult to hide the whereabouts of so many people. Sooner or later, people will know that they are from Huajia Village. It makes no difference whether they know it sooner or later.

It's just that I didn't tell my father or the others on the way so as not to think too much.

After arriving home, Hua Jin didn't hide anything from her father anymore, which surprised Hua Chengtian.

"Daughter, are you saying that we are being followed?"

After taking out so much food at once, it would be strange for Hua Chengtian to be stared at without realizing it, but there were so many of them, and most people wouldn't dare to take any action even if they looked at their posture.

Moreover, Hua Chengtian felt that he had been alert enough along the way, but he still didn't notice that he was being followed.

"Daughter, do you see who it is?" Hua Chengtian couldn't help but reveal a fierce look on his face, but it only flashed past. After all, his daughter was in front of him, and he didn't want to scare his good daughter.

Hua Jin: "It's an official."

"Official servants? How could it be them?"

I thought that it might be some gangster who coveted their food, and I was ready to make them look good. I really never thought that it would be someone from the government.

But when he thought about the amount of food, eggs and meat they sold throughout the day, Hua Chengtian fell silent.

You should have thought, how could they not be noticed by the government for selling grain in such a high profile, especially when they brought out so many eggs, someone would definitely think too much about it.

What's more, the county magistrate in their ancient town has always been a good official who works hard and does practical things for the people. What's more important is that he is a smart man, otherwise it would be impossible for him to be able to work for the people under his jurisdiction in such a difficult period. Grain seeds. "Daughter... we are afraid that we will be targeted by the government."

"Daddy, isn't this something that has been expected for a long time? It's nothing. I guess with the character of the county magistrate, he shouldn't be able to do anything."

"But this wall in our village..." Eggs are easy to explain. After all, when disaster strikes, there are not many people who bring poultry and livestock up the mountain. Eggs and other things can be fooled, but such a high wall is a bit confusing. It’s hard to explain.

"Dad, you are overthinking. It is not easy for so many people in our village to build a wall. Besides, the surrounding brickyards have indeed been taken away and there are no traces. Moreover, the county magistrate will be troubled if his daughter disowns her. On the issue of the wall.”

Having said that, Hua Chengtian still couldn't help but worry. After all, it was an official family. Common people were instinctively afraid of officials, who could control their power of life and death.

"Dad, don't think too much, don't forget, this is no longer the past."

Hua Chengtian was startled and looked at his daughter blankly.

yes! How could I forget this? The worry on my face immediately faded, and I figured it out in an instant.

He was using his previous thinking to get around him, forgetting that things were different now. The county magistrate was a smart man, so how could he not understand it.

"That's right, my daughter is still smart, it's dad who thinks too much."

"Hey, Luo Song didn't come with us, where are the others?"

As soon as he came back, he was dragged into chatting with his daughter. Only then did Hua Chengtian realize that Luo Song was no longer around.

"Let's go..." Hua Jin said vaguely.

Thinking of Luo Song's focused gaze along the way, Hua Jin was quite impatient. It was like a peacock in estrus that opened its tail at her whenever it got the chance. His eyes were so hot that it was impossible to look at her. In fact, Disturbing her mind.

Mainly because even if she didn't look at it, Naihe's 360-degree mental power made it difficult for her not to notice, which was really distressing.

"Why are you leaving? Dad still wants to let him have dinner at home. After all, he has been busy for so long this day."

"Maybe I'm in a hurry to go home. Daddy is sweating all over. I'll go back to the room first." Hua Jin found an excuse to escape.

"Sweat..." Hua Chengtian looked at his daughter strangely and touched the sweat on her forehead. Looking at her girl's refreshing appearance without any sweat at all, she couldn't see any sweat anywhere.

He shook his head and didn't think much about it. He just thought that his daughter was tired and wanted to go back to her room to rest.

Speaking of which, this body was indeed uncomfortable. He immediately forgot about Luo Song, went to the shed in the backyard, joined the queue of Gouzi and his old son, and quickly washed up.

Behind the village, Luo Song returned home with a tired look on his face.

Luo Song also allocated three houses behind the village. There was no need to buy a house, but the wages for building the house had to be paid separately.

The bricks and stones are available in the village, but after all, it is not your own house, so you can't let people work in vain. It doesn't matter whether it's things, food, or money, as long as both parties agree.

The allocation of houses is also based on the size of the original houses in the valley. That is to say, as long as there is a house in the valley, they can be divided into houses of similar sizes in the village. The larger the number, the more naturally they will be divided. The Luo Song family has more people and is still in the village. The household with the most houses in the house.

As for those who live in the mountains without a house or just building a shack, they can only use money or goods to pay for the house.

Regarding this point, neither the original Huajia Village people nor those who joined later had any objections. After all, there is no such thing as a good thing that falls in the sky. This is a truth that everyone understands.
