"Well, no problem, you can each pay ten cents and wait by the side.
There are six of you, one big and one small. The small one will pay five cents, for a total of sixty-five cents." The officer at the door lowered his head and accurately reported the amount of money that needed to be paid.
Yu Qingshu's face froze, and he said politely, "Thank you, sir. This is seventy cents in total. The rest will be for you to drink!"
Yu Qingshu handed a purse containing seventy cents to the officers and soldiers.
He still knew how to judge the situation and naturally could not hold back when using money at a critical moment.
"Well, all right! Then you can just line up over there. Someone will be there to take you to register your household registration and arrange accommodation for you."
The officers and soldiers also took the money promptly. Seeing Yu Qingshu being so understanding, they felt a lot more relieved.
Yu Qingqing and her family waited quietly by the side, and soon an elderly man wearing an official hat appeared.
The man's name was "Wu Chonghao". Coincidentally, he was the brother named "Wu Xianglian" who intercepted Yu Qingqing's family on the way.
However, Wu Chonghao naturally didn't know about the entanglement between Yu Qingqing and Wu Xianglian.
Wu Chonghao is usually a bit petty and likes to take advantage of others.
His status as an officer was obtained by Wu Xianglian from her husband's family.
Wu Chonghao looked at Yu Qingqing's family with a shifty look and an erratic gaze.
Yu Qingqing's family's clothes were relatively clean and tidy, without any patches.
He immediately felt confident and thought that this family could make some money.
Yu Qingqing seemed to feel Wu Chonghao's gaze, but she felt very uncomfortable.
Wu Chonghao: "You must have fled from other places, you seem to be in good spirits.
Follow me later, and I'll take you to the government office to handle your new household registration." After Wu Chonghao finished speaking, he smacked his lips a few times.
Yu Qingshu stepped forward and said respectfully: "Big brother, I'll trouble you. We will follow you closely, thank you for your help!"
Yu Qingshu also kept a low profile, after all, he didn't want to offend anyone easily.
After Yu Qingshu finished speaking, Wu Chonghao just looked at Yu Qingshu with his eyes slanted.
He just said that he would take them to handle the household registration, but now he has not taken any action at all.
Yu Qingshu was also a little confused about this situation.
Yu Qingqing was speechless when she saw the tense atmosphere.
She rolled her eyes at the officer in her heart, took out another ten coins and stuffed them into the officer's pocket. Then she said with a flattering smile: "Thank you for your help. Take this with your tea!"
Wu Chonghao gave Yu Qingqing a look that said, "You're very smart," and raised his head proudly. Then he walked inside.
When Yu Qingshu saw this, he was delighted and walked inside with his family.
After about a quarter of an hour, we finally arrived at a place called "Weiwu Fu Ya".
There are two big stone lions placed on the left and right of the government office gate. They look majestic and powerful.
There was a constant stream of people coming to the government office, and most of them, like Yu Qingqing and the others, came here to settle down.
After Wu Chonghao brought Yu Qingshu and his family in, he briefly handed over the matter to the people inside before turning around and leaving.
Soon it was Yu Qingshu's family's turn to apply for new household registration and choose a place to settle down.
The yamen's legal advisor wrote two copies of information for Yu Qingshu's family, one of which was kept in the yamen for record, and the other was the household registration of Yu Qingshu's family.
Because Hua Yuanyuan was there, and since she had no household registration, we could only explain the situation and temporarily apply for a new household registration for her.
The lawyer looked to be around forty or fifty years old. After handing the household registration to Yu Qingshu, he stroked his long black beard and said:
“There are more people settling here recently, and the closer to the city center, the more expensive it is.
Besides, the better places have been picked up by others. Now there is one that is not too far away, but it is a little poorer.
This place is called "Taotao Village". The village is surrounded by mountains and is far away from the deep mountains.
As long as you don't go out at night, there will be no problem during the day. Occasionally, there will be wild animals wandering around at night, but so far there has been no case of wild animals hurting people.
When you first arrived, the best farmland in the village was two taels of silver per mu, the medium-quality farmland was eight taels of silver, and the worst farmland was six taels of silver.
If you reclaim wasteland, no taxes will be collected for three years.
If you want to reclaim wasteland, you don't have to spend any money, you just need to buy the land, which costs about one or two taels of silver per mu.
Other places are more expensive, and even places a little further away are about the same price. What do you think?
The master narrowed his eyes slightly and carefully observed the reactions of Yu Qingshu's family. Seeing their surprised expressions, he couldn't help but laugh.
Yu Qingqing pulled Yu Qingshu's sleeve, and Yu Qingshu came back to his senses from his shock, and then nodded slightly at Yu Qingshu.
Yu Qingshu swallowed hard, then said with difficulty: "Alright! Let's go here! Excuse me, Master, how much silver do you think it will cost in total?"
The lawyer pursed his lips and said, "You guys are going to handle the household registration. For six adults and one child, I'll give you ten taels of silver in total!"
Also, when you leave later, you can get a bag of millet, which is also a benefit of visiting this village!"
After the lawyer finished speaking quickly, he added a few more entries to the household registration.
Yu Qingqing stepped forward and gave ten taels of silver, gnashing her teeth and adding twenty more coins.
When the lawyer saw the extra twenty cents, he didn't say much.
Master: "You can go to the village now. Someone will take you there. It will take about an hour to walk there."
The lawyer collected the household registration records of Yu Qingshu's family and then went on to handle them for the next family.
Yu Qingshu, feeling dizzy, continued to follow the officials with his family.
The road to "Taotao Village" was relatively flat at the beginning, but it became a bit difficult as we walked along.
The main reason is that there are mostly rocks all around, and they will pass by a pile of rocks.
Fortunately, Qingshu and his family have been eating food and drinking water from the space recently, and their physical condition has improved a lot.
Although they have all been baptized by the spiritual spring water, their physical conditions have been transformed and are many times better than those of ordinary people.
There was only one soldier accompanying Yu Qingshu's family. In addition to Yu Qingshu's family, there was another family surnamed Li.
Along the way, the Li family was chatting and talking enthusiastically with Yu Qingqing's family.
We walked and stopped along the way, and after a while, we finally arrived at "Taotao Village".
It was exactly three quarters past noon, and every household was having lunch. The aroma of food wafted through the village from time to time.
