Liu Xiaoyu, Li Yuan and others were chatting with Deng Weihong, trying to figure out how to get more benefits from each other.

Liu Xiaoyu and others valued Deng Weihong's abilities and connections in the spiritual practice lineage, while Deng Weihong valued what benefits the cooperation between the two sides could bring to him.

Cultivation does not mean having no desires or demands, but the things you pursue are different from those of ordinary people, so it seems that your desires are not high.

But in fact, when they encounter something related to themselves, they are more eager than anyone else.

Tian Qingyong and the others did not have lunch at Zhang Lan's house at noon. Instead, they found a place outside the village to have dinner together. Zhang Lan had people coming to visit him from time to time, and Li Xia also came near noon, so she did not stay with the others.

When it was almost eleven o'clock, Li Xia called Zhang Lan. She had already arrived at the entrance of the village and asked Zhang Lan if she was at home.

After the meeting, Li Xia explained that she came here because the National Day was approaching and there were some gifts allocated for big clients, so she came to deliver a few.

It was almost noon, so they would eat before leaving. Zhang Lan didn't say anything, but when her mother saw Li Xia, she started urging her to get married before she could say a few words.

"Li Xia, you are already thirty, when are you going to get married?"

"You'd better stop talking. Li Xia won't have any trouble getting married." Zhang Lan's father, who was standing by, was disgusted with Zhang Lan's mother for bringing up irrelevant issues.

"It's okay, second uncle. My aunt also cares about me. There's no rush about getting married. We can get married as soon as the time comes." Li Xia said with a smile.

"And Zhang Lan, you have so many friends coming to see you every day, ask them to introduce Li Xia to you." Zhang Lan's mother changed the subject and pointed to Zhang Lan who was watching the show on the side.

"I understand. You don't have to worry about this. It's not your business." Zhang Lan replied.

In addition to giving gifts, Li Xia came here for another reason, which was the demolition of Qingshan Village. Li Xia heard that Zhang Lan had a certain decision-making power in the demolition funds.

I just wanted to ask Zhang Lan to introduce her to someone and see if I could transfer the money to her at the local bank.

It involves the flow of tens of millions of funds. Even if the funds stay in the account for one or two days, it will be a considerable achievement.

Zhang Lan verbally agreed and asked Li Xia to discuss it with Zhang Hu. Zhang Lan didn't care which bank the account was from, it just depended on whether Zhang Hu agreed to other people.

Zhang Lan now looked at Li Haimei who came to her mother to cry and asked her parents to make the decision. She said to her mother in silence, "What can I do about this matter? I am so young."

Li Yumei is the daughter of Zhang Lan's third uncle. At the funeral of the third uncle, the whole family was said to be very unhappy. But this matter can be said to be somewhat related to Zhang Lan's parents, and it has basically nothing to do with Zhang Lan.

Now there is another family dispute. Whatever Zhang Lan did in the past was either done by his uncle or aunt. As a junior, what can he say when he goes there?

To be honest, Zhang Lan was very confused about this third uncle, because this third uncle was Zhang Lan's mother's third uncle, and the third aunt was Zhang Lan's father's third aunt. When Zhang Lan was a child, he sometimes called him uncle, sometimes uncle, sometimes aunt, and sometimes aunt. At that time, Zhang Lan's father usually did not take him to visit relatives, but Zhang Lan's mother took Zhang Lan to visit relatives, so Zhang Lan mostly followed his mother's way of addressing.

Now Li Haimei came to find Zhang Lan's mother because Zhang Lan's mother had relatives on both sides. Zhang Lan's third uncle had offended all the relatives, and there was also the relationship with his third uncle, so Zhang Lan's family had to leave as well.

The reason why Li Haimei came this time was that Zhang Lan's third great uncle was planning to move the graves. She said that she had asked someone to find a good place that would be good for the future of her children and grandchildren, and she was planning to move the grave of Zhang Lan's deceased third great uncle and the ancestral grave there.

Now the old lady has arranged everything, and all she needs is money. After all, moving the ancestral graves is not easy.

Then the old lady turned her attention to her daughter and relatives and friends. According to Li Haimei, the entire process of moving the grave and occupying someone else's land will cost 100,000 yuan. Repairing the grave and building the road will cost about 40,000 to 50,000 yuan, and then asking a Feng Shui master to determine the location of the grave and move the grave will cost tens of thousands of yuan.

That is to say, the total cost is at least 200,000 yuan, and the subsequent costs are hard to say. Because in addition to the fixed local money, the cost of repairing the graves and roads and the cost of the Feng Shui master are also hard to say how much it will cost if it is not started now.

Especially for the Feng Shui master, building a road is easy. After the location is determined, the size of the area to be built, the number of roads to be built, how many days it will take to use an excavator, and the amount of work can all be estimated in advance.

The only thing that is difficult to estimate is the Feng Shui master's, because according to what Li Haimei relayed, the old lady said that the Feng Shui master had several quotation plans for the day of relocation.

Some simply choose a location and calculate the time. Some provide a full package and are also responsible for handling the bones. I heard that when the grave is opened and buried, there are special people to handle the special rituals.

Anyway, the more complicated the steps are and the more people involved, the higher the final fee will be.

"I remember that my third uncle is the eldest son, right? Shouldn't the ancestral tomb be moved to follow the eldest son?" Zhang Lan asked with some confusion.

In the rural areas around Canghe River, there is an unwritten rule for relocating graves: only the eldest son can decide whether to relocate the ancestral grave. If other children want to relocate the grave, they can only move with their parents.

In addition, if the eldest son wants to move, he must take the ancestral grave with him. This is generally the rule followed. There are also some who do not follow the rule, but generally they are families with few brothers and sisters, some with only one son or all daughters. Naturally, they can move as they wish, and others have no right to say anything.

"All the old people in other families are gone. Now your third great uncle is the only one alive. Besides, there is no one left in the mountain. No one will take care of what your third great uncle wants to do." Zhang Lan's mother explained.

"So what exactly is this two hundred thousand yuan?"

"What your great aunt means is that each family should contribute money. With so many nephews and nieces, if each family contributes a few thousand yuan, the money will be collected." Li Haimei explained.

Zhang Lan thought for a moment and said, "Then take the money. Take as much as you deserve."

Zhang Lan understood what Li Haimei had said before. She wanted Zhang Lan's mother to come forward and get all the relatives together to see if she could get the old lady to give up this idea.

In Li Haimei's words, his mother is now trying to make money for Li Haigen's family. His two daughters, Li Haimei and Li Yumei, are both grandmothers in their 50s and 60s. They can't be idle all day long. They are called by the old lady to help with this and that at home every now and then. Sometimes when the old lady is hospitalized, they not only have to pay money, but also have to send people to take care of her. (End of this chapter)
