The story of the struggle of the poor girl who crossed

Chapter 16 Transformation
The other two quickly agreed: "That's right, Brother Gao Shan, we can't have this mule!"

Liang Gaoshan waved his hand: "Don't argue with me, it's not easy for everyone. I sold a wild boar before, and the family has enough money to survive for a while. This muntjac is my whole heart, so don't refuse it. Otherwise, you will not treat me as a brother!"

The kindness was hard to come by, so the three had no choice but to thank Liang Gaoshan, and followed the footsteps of the large army with the mule in hand.

Liang Gaoshan stayed in this area alone, dug some wild vegetables, filled eight gourds with water, washed the clothes he brought, and jumped into the stream to wash himself, and then he carried his back basket and hoe, Return quickly along the way.

At this moment, he is alone in this area, and everything is silent.When he was leaving, a hare suddenly jumped out of the grass, which frightened him so much that his legs trembled a little, and he left the forest as if he had fled.

Two days later, Liang Dong returned with a full load of troops.

From this day on, Liang Gaoshan, a poor boy who had no status in the village and was looked down upon by others, suddenly gained a higher status.Whenever there is any important matter in the village, the village head will send someone to invite him to discuss it.

Liang Gaoshan was overwhelmed by the flattery, and in his simple and humble smile, there was an inexplicable confidence and courage.

Seeing the change in her father, Mai Xiang felt very comforted in her heart.

The poor people in the village now have food and drink, so Mai Xiang discussed with her father: "Father, let's go to the city to get 500 taels of silver and buy the back mountain and the five or six acres of wasteland on the west side of the village. ,OK?"

Liang Gaoshan: "Why do you buy the back mountain?"

Mai Xiang: "The barren hills can be planted with a kind of grass called alfalfa, which both cattle and sheep like to eat. We can fence the back hills with thorns and hedges, and raise sheep and cows on the back hills. The wasteland can also be reclaimed to grow vegetables. Corn or something."

"Clover? Where did you hear about it?" Liang Gaoshan asked suspiciously.

Mai Xiang: "The last time we went to the county town, when Dad was negotiating the price with the shopkeeper at the pharmacy, I heard it from a master who went to buy medicine."

Liang Gaoshan thought for a while, then smiled honestly: "That's okay, anyway, it doesn't cost a lot of money to buy a back mountain with no trees, about 300 taels should be enough!"

Now, there are hundreds of taels of silver in the family, not bad for those few silver coins.Since Mai Xiang wants to buy it, then buy it!The most important thing is that now that the proof of saving money is placed at home, he is always uneasy, for fear that he will attract thieves.Why not, according to my daughter's words, just buy the back mountain and forget it.It took more than 300 taels, and there are many more.

The daughter's father didn't think too much about it, so he readily agreed.

That night, Liang Gaoshan went to find two men with a good relationship, and asked them to go to the county with him the next day.These two people are the two people he divided up when he went to the mountains last time. One is Tian Sheng and the other is Mao Lin.

Early the next morning, before dawn, the three of them set off.In addition, she also brought a small tail, which is naturally Mai Xiang's girl.She was worried that the three of them would be too nervous, which would lead to bad things, so she was worried and must follow.

Sure enough, on the way, Liang Gaoshan explained to the two of them: "This time I invite you to accompany me to the county seat because I'm going to the bank to get money, and I'm worried about being targeted by bad guys. With the two of you here, I don't worry about it." Not much. But wait a while, when we reach the grove in front of us, let’s each prepare a wooden stick.”

When Tian Sheng and Mao Lin heard this, they immediately became nervous.

Tian Sheng: "Go to the bank? I've never been to that place. It's a place where rich people go. We poor people will definitely attract attention when we go in, so we have to be careful!"
