Chapter 544: Encounter with the Local Security Guard

There was nothing else to buy except fresh meat, so the two prepared to go home.

Who would have thought that I would run into the local security guard by such a coincidence.

The village head's eyes lit up when he saw them. He waved his hand to greet them, then trotted over and said with a smile, "Mr. Shao, Mrs. Shao, what a coincidence! I still have 70 acres of paddy fields in Zhangjia Village. Do you want them? If you do, let's take them now. If not, I'll go find someone else."

Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan looked at each other and said in unison, "Yes, yes!" and "Don't even mention 70 acres, we want twice as much!"

These days, it’s really not easy to buy a piece of fertile land.

Especially in towns and villages with a fairly mature level of development.

Of course, if you really want to buy it and are willing to pay a high price, it is possible to buy it, but it is not cost-effective.

Qiao Xuan felt that she was really lucky that such a good thing happened.

Shao Yunduan thought about it a little more, hesitated for a moment, and smiled, "We are old acquaintances. Is there any problem with this paddy field?"

The local security guard smiled and said, "Don't worry about that! I dare not deal with anything with problems. I make a living in Heshan County. If I ruin my reputation, I won't even have a place to cry!"

That's true.

Professions like this are usually passed down from father to son and are long-term, secure jobs.

But if one did something dishonest and ruined his reputation, once someone reported him successfully, the county magistrate had the power to remove him from his position and replace him with someone else.

Unless you are stupid or forced into a desperate situation, you will never do anything that would harm yourself.

The two of them were relieved, and Qiao Xuan said, "It's just that we didn't bring so much money on this trip."

The local security guard smiled and said, "That's right, how much did you bring?"

The two looked at each other, and Qiao Xuan took out two hundred taels of silver notes, "That's so much."

Shao Yunduan touched his nose and said, "I didn't bring it."

He had a few pounds or so in his arms, and it was the same whether he had them or not.

The village head laughed and said, "Then give me two hundred taels first, and write an IOU for the rest. How about you send the money to me tomorrow?"

The two nodded in agreement.

So the land security guard took him to take a look at the fields, and after returning, the land deeds were transferred quickly.

Qiao Xuan said happily: "We already have 310 acres of paddy fields, so we are considered landlords!"

Shao Yunduan smiled and said yes.

It was almost four o'clock when I got home, and I took a break just in time to prepare dinner.

Whenever Qiao Xuan wants to cook, there are many people at home who can help, and preparation is very quick.

For example, after buying the meat, Shao Sanlang lit a fire, washed the meat, added the marinade bag and put it in the pot to stew, Yang Xiaoni cut the mutton carefully, and Xu's belly was not too big, so she went to the vegetable garden to pick vegetables.

Barbecue tastes better when eaten with vegetables.

Otherwise it will look too greasy.

Qiao Xuan thought, why not just make a bowl of fish ball soup.

There are fresh big grass carps in the pond. Two weighing eight or nine kilograms are caught. The fish bones are used to stew soup, and the fish heads are made into chopped pepper fish heads with pickled sour peppers. The fish meat is carefully sliced and chopped into puree, then squeezed into round, snow-white fish balls, which are cooked in a pot of clear water and sprinkled with chopped green onions and coriander. They are so delicious.

After eating barbecue, drinking a bowl of fish ball soup and eating a few fish balls, it is really delicious.

So Xiaoqi went to catch fish, kill fish, remove bones and take out meat.

Qiao Xuan checked the bamboo sticks sharpened by Chunyu and others. She did not comment, but she had an idea in her mind.

To make lipstick, one must be deft and skillful. She couldn't treat all six people equally, so the most deft one would definitely be the leader.
