Chapter 234 Caring
He did remember that when Mother left Shanqian Village, before getting into the carriage, she gave grandfather five silver notes of 1 taels and one silver note of 200 taels.It is said that it is 1 taels of silver for the eldest uncle and the second uncle to marry each other, 200 taels of silver bills for the younger aunt and second sister, and the remaining 3 taels are for the pension of the grandfather and grandma.I have given out more than 5 taels, so I am afraid that the money on hand is not much, right?
"Good boy, the area of ​​Xiaoqing River has not been inhabited for hundreds of years. The land and mountains in that place are worthless. Let's put it this way, the big mountain can be bought with 1 taels of silver!"

Da Ya acted very confident, paused and said: "As for those lands, there are about 1 mu, and you can buy them for up to 1 taels of silver. Maybe you don't need [-] taels of silver, just like before. , one mu of land and half taels of silver, if it is [-] mu, do the math, how much silver can you buy?"

Zhenxing thought about it seriously, and quickly replied, "Seven thousand and 250 taels of silver!"

"Well, yes, the answer is correct! From thinking to answering, it only took five seconds, which is very good!" Da Ya praised without hesitation.

The term "second" is Da Ya's "invention". The family members, relatives and friends who are close to her all have a very clear concept of "second".A second is actually an ancient "moment".Five seconds means five moments.

When Zhenxing was three years old, Da Ya began to teach him oral and mental arithmetic.Now, his level of oral and mental arithmetic is about to catch up with Xiangdong.

The three of them ate snacks, drank tea and chatted. The atmosphere was very relaxed and happy. They hadn't seen many small revivals in the world.

The eldest girl couldn't help admiring inwardly: she is indeed the grandson of the emperor, so majestic and unmoving, so condescending to the sky, she would not believe that he is not the eldest son of the crown prince, even if she was beaten to death!

This little guy is 100% His Royal Highness the Emperor Taisun of the Lan Kingdom!

Qi Lianshan went back and forth with Ge Gen, and seeing this situation, he couldn't help being very surprised: This kid is quite courageous!Moreover, there seems to be a faint regal air.

However, this thought was just a flash, Qi Lianshan didn't think deeply about it.Many years later, knowing the truth of the matter, he couldn't help secretly rejoicing: Fortunately, at that time, he was still very polite and caring to Mrs. Shui and His Royal Highness the Emperor Taisun!
"How about it, how much money is suitable?" Da Ya stood up and asked with a smile.

"Oh, we made a rough estimate. From the border of the land you bought last time to the big mountain, there are about [-] mu, not much more. That's good, let's use [-] mu How about counting in mu?" Qi Lianshan said with a smile all over his face.

"Well, that's fine, let's do it like this! If it's not such a big place, and the road is so far away, it's not very humane to ask an adult to take a trip. However, the adult still needs to send someone to take a rough measurement. Set the boundary line, including the one thousand acres bought last time. Otherwise, if there are life disputes in the future, it will be difficult to handle!"

In line with the principle of being cautious, Da Ya still made such a request.Years later, her cautious behavior also saved her a lot of trouble.

"Sure, I will send a yamen servant whose family is in Shazaogou to measure and set the boundary line, and let the yamen servant go home by the way. Alas, it is not easy for people in this county government, even if it is a local person. I can only go home once or twice a year, so I will try my best to create some opportunities for them to go home!"

Qi Lianshan said helplessly, and immediately asked someone to find a yamen servant in his thirties, and introduced to Da Ya: "This is the man who lives in Shazaogou, his name is Hu Yanmao, he is both dutiful and clever, and he is very good at handling things. Ma'am, don't worry!"

Shazaogou is a small village, halfway from the county seat to Xiaoqinghe.

"Hi Ma'am!" Hu Yanmao respectfully greeted the big girl.

"Hello, big brother!" Da Ya hurriedly saluted back.

"When this lady goes back, you go back with her, measure the area of ​​the land she bought, determine the boundary line, and set up a clear mark! The lady bought a lot of land, and there is a big mountain. This time you go to Be sure to handle things properly, and don't let Madam suffer!"

"Yes, my lord, the little one will definitely handle things beautifully!" Hu Yanmao replied hastily and respectfully.

Qi Lianshan clearly explained the specific amount of land and mountains he bought, as well as the location, and waved to Hu Yanmao: "Go down!"

Hu Yanmao retreated respectfully.

Qi Lianshan reported the price: "The land is still one mu and a half taels of silver, and 500 mu is 5000 taels of silver. Let's calculate the big mountain according to 500 taels of silver! Well, the total is [-] taels of silver! "

"Okay! My lord is very considerate. Please wait a moment, my lord. I'll go to the car to get the money!" The big girl nodded, and immediately called Shang Zhenxing and Chu Qi, who had been parked in the county government compound before. own carriage.The three of them removed the stones from one of the baskets, and took some gold from the other basket.And covered it with gold with stone.

"Zhenxing and Chuqi are looking at the car!" Da Ya beckoned the two yamen servants over, and said with a very polite smile, "Please help me carry this basket to the reception room!"

While talking, he gave each of them a tael of silver.

"Okay, thank you Ma'am, thank you so much!" The two yamen servants quickly thanked, one tael of silver can help the family solve many difficulties.You know, their monthly salary is only one tael of silver, and they are often short of it.

The two happily helped Da Ya carry the basket to the reception room, and placed it in front of the county magistrate under Da Ya's command.

Da Ya gave Qi Lian Shan a look, he waved his hand knowingly, and pushed everyone away, leaving only him, Ge Gen, and Da Ya present.

Da Ya opened the basket and removed the top layer of stones, revealing the golden gold: "This is gold worth 500 taels of silver, please accept it!"

Wow, gold!

Ge Gen's eyes widened. He had never seen so much gold in his life!This Mrs. Shui is really generous, and she took out so much gold at once.It can be seen that this is a rich lady, maybe she is the daughter-in-law or daughter-in-law of an aristocratic family!
"Here, so much gold?" Qi Lianshan was also stunned. He came from a poor family, not to mention so much gold, he had never even seen gold before!
Moreover, the most important thing is, if his judgment is correct, the basket just now was placed on the carriage in the courtyard!There is no one guarding it, just leave it like this, this Mrs. Shui is really brave enough!

Qilian Mountain is a bit messy in the wind!

Da Ya smiled slightly, and handed 20 taels of silver to the two of them respectively: "It's not a respect, I came to ask the two adults for help, and I didn't buy any gifts. Please take this money to drink tea! In the future, Please take care of me a lot, and if you have the opportunity, please go to Xiaoqing River and take a look at the scenery there!"

"It's easy to say, easy to say! As long as it is within the scope of ability and does not break the law or discipline, I will do my best!" Qi Lianshan said while pushing the money back: "This, it's not so good, right?" Although he was short of money, but It seems inappropriate to accept money from the common people just after entering the official career.

Ge Gen looked at Da Ya helplessly, as if he was afraid that she would take the money back, and there was a flash of pleading in his eyes.

Hey, my lord, it's only 20 taels of silver, do you want to be so honest?You eat enough for one person, and the whole family is not hungry, but I have to feed a large family.I don't know how much I can get this month's salary, but these 20 taels are life-saving money!
Ge Gen kept wailing in his heart, wishing he could open his mouth to wake up Qi Lianshan, or put the money on the table into his pocket.

However, in the situation before him, it was really inconvenient for him to speak, let alone put away the money.As long as the county magistrate does not accept it, he will definitely not accept it, otherwise, he will lose the trust and value of the adult in the future!

Hey, this taste is not good!

Da Ya also saw Ge Gen's thoughts, and she had heard about the fact that the county government couldn't pay out the salary.Immediately, he smiled and pushed the money back: "My lord, it's only 20 taels of silver, which I voluntarily gave to you for your hard work. 20 taels, it's nothing, please accept it, my lord! Just treat me as a newcomer, A little support for the two adults!

In addition, I also plan to donate a sum of money to the county government as a relief fund for the county government.In the future, no matter which adult or tolerance of the county government encounters financial difficulties, they can receive it from this relief fund!Of course, with regard to receiving relief funds, adults should also formulate a set of appropriate plans and systems, which must benefit those who are really in need!Of course, this money can also be used to solve some major difficulties of the county government. "

As Da Ya spoke, she took out a 500 tael bank note from her purse and handed it to Qi Lianshan: "This is a 500 tael bank note, and it can be exchanged for silver at any bank in Fucheng. If you are free, , you can take someone to Fucheng to exchange the silver!"

"Thank you, thank you very much!" Qi Lianshan was so moved that he tossed and turned, only saying this one sentence.

"Madam, thank you! You are so kind, the Bodhisattva will surely bless you with a long life, happiness and well-being!" Ge Gen was so moved that he almost knelt down and kowtowed to her.

Red contract, it will be done soon!The two parties agreed that they would meet at the gate of the county government office tomorrow morning.When the time comes, Yamen servant Hu Yanmao will go to Xiaoqinghe Oasis together with the three of them.

Qi Lianshan and Ge Gen personally sent the three of them out of the gate of the county government office, and when they were waving goodbye, a few men in military uniforms came.The tall man at the head looked like an officer, and he was quite young.

Well, about the same age as Shui Qingqian.

For some reason, such a line of words flashed across Da Ya's mind.

"Hey, it's General Shangguan here! Welcome, please wait a moment, Xiaguan is sending Mrs. Shui to the inn!" Qi Lianshan quickly greeted him with a smile on his face, and he looked like an old acquaintance.

[-] words today, thank you very much for your support and encouragement!Mrs. Water?Could it be that she is the first wife of King Pingxi? !
The young officer suddenly raised his head, and Zhenxing's smiling face fell into his eyes, which was very similar to Shui Qingqian in his youth!
"I'm sorry to bother you, but Ma'am is Shui Qingqian's wife, Rao Chuyue?" Shangguan Cheng asked tentatively, but he had already decided in his heart that the person in front of him must be Shui Qingqian's wife!
Da Ya guessed from the conversation between Qi Lianshan and the other party just now, that the person in front of him seemed to be the person both Shui Qingqian and Xiang Xi had mentioned in their letters, Shangguan Heng's eldest brother, Shangguan Cheng.Before, she had thought that if she encountered any troubles in the northwest, would she be able to ask Shangguan Cheng for help?What I didn't expect was that I met him at this moment!
