Chapter 150: Cheating Some Farm Tools

Leng Zhubu was busy as he had to help everyone with their settlement procedures.

"Sir, can I pay the money for the house first?" Da Tang was unable to speak.

Leng Zhubo waved his hand and said, "The county magistrate has already given orders. You are also victims. You will be given one year to make up for it!"

The hall bowed gratefully in thanks, but Tang Youyou rolled her eyes in the dark. A lot of silver and other items were seized last night. These all belonged to the three villages. How did they become the private property of the county government? Why didn't they notify the three villages to come and claim them?

Unconsciously, he asked, "Sir, our village was looted yesterday. We still have a lot of silver and farm tools. When can we collect them?"

Everyone in the room said: "My God, this guy is really too bold. He actually asked for money openly? Isn't he afraid of the master's anger?"

Leng Zhubu said perfunctorily, "We haven't calculated the number yet. The county magistrate is busy right now, so he'll deal with the refugees first. I'll let you know when the results are out!"

Tang Youyou heard the hidden meaning and frowned. It would be fine if he didn't want to give the silver, but if he didn't give the farm tools, what would everyone use to open up the wasteland? Would they use their hands to dig?

"Sir, please forgive me for speaking frankly. There are 38 households in our village, and we have over 120 taels of silver. A total of 420 farm tools have been lost. We are still in the process of clearing the land. What will we do without these tools?"

Leng Zhubo turned his head and glanced at her, then looked at a yamen runner, "Take them to get the farm tools!"

At the same time, he scolded her again: "You want to take away the silver you have earned? More than 30 households, 420 farm tools? You are kidding me!"

However, he did not say anything to bring it up. If he made a fuss, the money might be lost, and he would be the one who would lose more than he gained. It was just some broken farm tools, so he could just take them.
