Chapter 264 Two Hundred Acres of Land

"This is my yard. I can let anyone go if I want." Mr. Xu looked at the unfamiliar group of people across from him and said, "Today, this is a matter between me and the Shang family. It has nothing to do with you. If you know what's good for you, leave now."

"Please go ahead and listen to the opera." A man in a moon-white gown sitting in the middle raised his hand and motioned them to go ahead.

The opera singers on the stage were still singing. The man in the moon-white gown looked gentle and refined, but he looked very unfamiliar.

Xu Yuanwai stared at the man for a while, and after confirming that he was not one of the young masters from the county, he felt relieved. He turned to look at the troupe leader Shang and said, "Either give me two thousand taels of silver, or, have the lark come to my house and perform an opera!"

"Lark is going to sing for my eldest daughter, first come, first served!" Dong Gui walked out with a cold face. When she stared at Xu Yuanwai with eyes as cold as ice, Xu Yuanwai felt a chill rising from his back.

Mr. Xu looked at Donggui: "Who is your eldest daughter?" He squeezed the Buddhist beads in his hand and looked at Donggui with deep eyes. From the few steps she took just now, it can be seen that she has practiced martial arts.

"You don't deserve to know who my eldest daughter is. All you need to know is one thousand taels of silver to buy this garden!" Dong Gui slammed the contract on the table and said, "From now on, the Shang family and this house have nothing to do with you!"

Dong Gui slammed the table with a loud "bang", which scared Xu Yuanwai badly. He raised his head pretending to be calm, trying to suppress her with his eyes, but unfortunately, Dong Gui looked straight at him without any fear in her eyes. Although she was a woman, the chillness emanating from her made Xu Yuanwai feel cold in his heart.

"The garden is mine. It's unreasonable for you to sell it for whatever price you say." Xu Yuanwai said in a deep voice: "If you want this garden, then bring two thousand taels. Otherwise, my subordinates will not agree!"

As soon as Xu Yuanwai finished speaking, Dong Gui hadn't said anything yet when Hua Qing rushed forward and said, "You're asking for an exorbitant price! Even a lion's mouth can't open as wide as yours!"

Hua Qing rushed forward, and Manager Liu stepped forward and attacked Hua Qing!

"Get out of here!" Hua Qing had a bad temper and she kicked the nearest thug in anger!

With the intention of establishing his authority, Hua Qing started to fight without any hesitation. Every kick he made was accurate, and the fighters one by one fell swoop, like balls, falling to the ground with a loud noise!

Boom, bang, boom!

One after another, Manager Liu became more and more frightened. How come Hua Qing in front of him was so unusually strong?

"The person who dares to put on airs with your aunt hasn't even been born yet!" Hua Qing curled up the corner of her mouth into a smile, and she punched Manager Liu. Manager Liu turned sideways, and a gust of wind blew from his sleeves. Manager Liu felt that he could not open his eyes, and he felt hot and uncomfortable.

Dong Gui was well prepared and stepped back early. Smelling the chili powder, she said, "Your chili powder is such a waste!"

"Get lost." Hua Qing got furious when she heard this and said, "This is the powder made from chili seeds. I can't bear to spill it."

Hua Qing took the opportunity to step on Liu Zongguan to the ground. Seeing Liu Zongguan covering his eyes in pain, he said unhappily, "So, do you accept it or not?"

"You, you are trying to force the sale!" Mr. Xu stood up in shock and moved quietly to the outside. These two women were really weird. He had so many thugs, so how could he be useless in their hands even if he was a good-for-nothing?

"Mr. Xu, if you sign, you can get one thousand taels of silver. If you don't sign, we will meet in the government office!" Dong Gui took out the transfer agreement again and slammed it on the table, leaving Mr. Xu with only two choices!

"Sue the authorities! My manor cannot..." Just as Xu Yuanwai finished his angry words, Dong Gui laughed. This creepy laugh made Xu Yuanwai shudder. Dong Gui said, "Xu Yuanwai, I advise you not to sue the authorities. The twelve concubines in your mansion are not legitimate. Some of them were robbed, right? I heard that some of them died."

"How about we first check how your concubine died? If she was killed, then the government must investigate thoroughly!" Dong Gui said with a cold face as Xiao Jiuyue taught her. Even because she was usually serious, she looked even more like a demon at this moment!

"I sign!" Mr. Xu looked at the thugs lying on the ground, and the steward Liu who was lying on the ground screaming in pain in his eyes. Hua Qing was standing next to him. The possibility of him escaping was almost zero!

Mr. Xu took the pen and signed his name with shaking hands. His heart was full of bitterness. He looked at Master Shang with eyes that seemed to want to eat him alive. Where did he find this person?

"You have to sign both." Dong Gui pushed the red clay over and said, "Press your fingerprints!"

Xu Yuanwai's face was dark. He didn't even look at it. He signed his name directly, pressed the red mud on his name, and pressed his fingerprint. He slammed the pen on the table and asked, "Where's the money?"

One thousand and two taels of silver!

Dong Gui took the agreement and looked at it. A smile appeared on the corner of her lips: "Wait a minute."

"You don't want to pay, do you?" Mr. Xu's face darkened when he heard this. If he dared to cheat him out of a thousand taels of silver, then he...

"How could that be? Our eldest daughter is a man of her word. How could she possibly go back on her word?" Dong Gui pulled out another agreement from her bosom and said, "I'm sorry, I took the wrong one."

"Then what did I just sign?" Xu Yuanwai stared at the signed and fingerprinted agreement in Donggui's hand and went forward to snatch it. Hua Qing pulled him back and pressed him back on the stool: "Behave!"

"My eldest daughter wants to buy two hundred mu of land. Coincidentally, Mr. Xu also has some, so we won't bother buying it. One mu of land is worth five taels of silver, which makes a total of one thousand taels of silver." Dong Gui said, handing him the theater agreement and saying, "Congratulations, Mr. Xu, you've earned two thousand taels of silver in one go!"

"I won't sell my land!" Mr. Xu, who had always cherished his land, struggled forward and shouted, "I want to report it to the authorities."

Two hundred acres of land, five taels of silver is the lowest price. I heard that the crops in a certain village had a bumper harvest. If he saves up the land he has, he will definitely be able to sell it for a good price next year!

"Don't worry, Mr. Xu. Two thousand taels of silver, not a penny less." Dong Gui completed her task and explained to the young lady. She hid the signed agreement behind her and said, "It's written in black and white. You signed and sealed it. If you want to report it to the authorities, you don't have to go to the government office."

Dong Gui walked up to the man in the moon-white gown and bowed, saying, "Master Rong, I am also going to file a complaint against Mr. Xu for his disregard for human life and for forcibly seizing a decent woman!"

"Lord Rong?" Mr. Xu was still feeling sorry for the two hundred acres of land. When he saw Donggui's actions, he suddenly remembered that the new county magistrate of Lancang was named Rong. He had been giving gifts to build connections, hoping to bribe Lord Rong!

It’s over, it’s all over!
