Chapter 46 A Worthless Person

This large courtyard with high walls may be very impressive in the eyes of country folk, but Lu Jinnian still despises it.

But with her current status, building a blue brick house is already the limit.

Although she knows the system at that time too well, she understands one thing.

Civilians cannot live in large courtyards in the city, that's for sure.

After waiting at the door for a long time, Lu Jinnian thought that no one would come out, and then the door was opened.

A man in his fifties came out, with a long beard, a slightly fat body, and not very tall.

After he came out, the man he had just met followed him.

Lu Jinnian could tell at a glance that this man was the head of the village, because he was dressed better than others and was chubby.

"You want to enter our village?" The head of the village looked her up and down, not quite sure.

This is not the same as the description just now, strong as a thousand pounds?

Look at this thin body, are you sure?

Hearing this, Lu Jinnian smiled and said, "It's me, Lizhang. I have three younger brothers and sisters."

Lizhang turned around and looked at the man behind him, "Changqing, is that the person you just mentioned?"

He was really unsure when asked this question. It's a good thing to have more people in the village, but they must also contribute.

After all, he is in charge of the village's household registration and taxation. Without income, there is no tax.

With this thin body and three younger brothers and sisters, how can he make money? What use can he have.

Li Changqing nodded, "It's him, I saw it with my own eyes just now."

Seeing that Zheng didn't believe it, Lu Jinnian could only demonstrate it again. He turned around and lifted the big stone, and the action was exactly the same as before.

The head of the village opposite was also stunned, and then quickly asked someone to come in and talk.

See, only strength can make people look at you with respect.

He was so disgusted outside before, but now he greeted him with a smile and took people into the inner room to talk.

Lu Jinnian did not sneer at this behavior. Human nature is like this. Who would greet a worthless person with a smile?

After entering the courtyard, she found that the courtyard was quite large. In addition to fish, there were also flowers and plants.

The inner room was the living room, with tables and chairs.

After sitting down, Lu Jinnian said, "There is some wild boar meat in this backpack. If the head of the village doesn't mind

, take it and try it." Originally, this thing was used to facilitate work. It would be better if they accepted it, so that it would be easier to talk.

Seeing the fresh wild boar meat, the head of the village's eyes lit up, nodded with satisfaction and said, "There is only one hunting family in our Lijia Village, and it is usually not enough. If you can come, even if you don't farm, it's okay to hunt."

The most abundant thing in the countryside is people who grow crops, but there are too few hunters.

In fact, they can't beat them. Generally, there are too many tigers in the deep mountains and old forests, and ordinary people are no match.

Even an old hunter can't always return with a full load.

Hearing this, Lu Jinnian knew that the hunting family was Li Changhu.

She replied, "That's no problem. I make a living by hunting, so I can trade food with the people in the village."

"Hey!" The village head quickly corrected, "Just trade with me, I won't treat you unfairly."

He just likes to satisfy his appetite, otherwise he wouldn't be fat.

Lu Jinnian didn't expect him to say it so directly, but it's okay to make it clear.

"Okay, but I still hope that the village head can take care of us brothers and sisters."

She didn't say it explicitly, but everyone present understood.

What she meant was not to lower the price too much, they also need to live.

The village head smiled and nodded, "That's easy to talk about."

"Well, you and Changqing will go and get naturalized. You can find a house yourself. There is a vacant land at the east end of the village, which will be given to you. Changqing will take you there later. I will accept these things."

He looked very satisfied, for no other reason, just because of the wild boar meat.

You have to know that the wild boar at this time is not a big white pig. The danger of wild boar is no less than that of tigers. Therefore, being able to hunt this thing also proves that Lu Jinnian is capable.

Most of the people in the village are farmers, and there are too few who make a living by hunting. It is best to have such people naturalized.

Seeing the village head leave with satisfaction, Lu Jinnian felt a little relieved.

Finally, she didn't have to be a wild man anymore, and she could settle down.

Li Changqing worked quickly, and all the brothers in the family were registered, and Lu Jinnian's column was clearly written as male.

She didn't mind this. Whether they would get married in the future was still a different matter, so it didn't matter.

"A total of two taels of silver." Li Changqing looked at her expressionlessly.

Silver?

Lu Jinnian was stunned, but he also knew that giving money was not excessive. After all, it is not easy to accept outsiders. They also allocated homesteads, which is not given for free.

Thinking of this, she took out two taels of silver from her sleeve with a painful look on her face, and there were also a few copper coins in it.

Seeing her expression, Li Changqing understood that the brothers and sisters in this family did not have much money.

But rules are rules, and no one can be an exception.

Lu Jinnian was taken to the east end of the village. It was almost out of the village. Going further in was the mountain. Looking at the snow on the ground, you can see that no one has walked

there. This is probably the most marginal place. If there are wild beasts coming down the mountain, they will be the first to come here.

But Lu Jinnian is not afraid, and even thinks it is very good here. She is particularly satisfied.

"Uncle Changqing, is it dangerous here?" She hesitated.

Satisfaction cannot be written on her face. The right person here has the final say, and she can't pretend to be big.

The rigor of ancient times is more complicated than that of later generations, so pretending to be a pig to eat a tiger is the safest.

Lu Jinnian has several younger brothers and sisters behind him, and he can't ignore everything. In that case, not only will his younger brothers and sisters be in danger, but he himself will also be unable to continue to live.

Even if she is willing to travel the world, will her brothers and sisters be willing?

Li Changqing looked around and said, "It's not dangerous, but you have to build your courtyard wall higher. You can see that ours is quite high."

Even if other families have fences, they are more than one meter high.

This kind of thing can prevent wild animals. Although it will fall down with a push, the intelligence of wild animals is not that high.

Lu Jinnian nodded, and then did not ask more questions.

If you want to move here, you have to wait until the beginning of spring, which is more than a month away.

You have to make preparations during this period and come to visit often in the future.

In addition, you need earth bricks to build a house. Not to mention that blue bricks are expensive, they attract people too much.

Therefore, earth houses are the best. When the conditions are met, you can buy a house in the city.

The most important thing now is to integrate into the current life, and there is no need to worry about other things for the time being.

After saying goodbye to Li Changqing, Lu Jinnian embarked on the journey home with a backpack on her back.

When passing by Li Changhu's house, she saw that their house was still closed and there was no one in the yard. It is estimated that they have not returned yet.

She didn't look at them for long, and turned around and went home.

This journey will take about two hours. If you don't hurry, it will be dark when you get home.
