Chapter 100: One Thousand Eight Hundred Acres of Land (1/2)



"Yue girl, Mingyu, Minghao..."

The village chief sat on the ox cart, shouting and waving his hands.

When the village chief called out for the first time, Li Mengyue heard it and turned around to look over.

Not far away, the village chief was waving his hand and calling them.

"Grandpa Village Chief, Grandpa Village Chief." Minghao also looked at the village chief and ran towards him.

"Hey, Minghao, why are you here?"

"Grandpa Village Chief, my sister brought my brother and me here to sell locusts."

Hearing someone selling locusts, the village chief anxiously asked, "How are they? Are they easy to sell?"

Before Minghao could answer, the village chief continued, "It doesn't matter if they don't sell any. I'll talk to the villagers and tell them to stop catching locusts. It's just a pity that the village has lost such a good source of income."

Minghao was very anxious because he saw that the village chief was making random guesses without waiting for him to speak.

There are many buyers, and some people want to buy but haven't bought yet.

So Village Chief Li finished talking to himself, immersed in the bad mood of not being able to sell the locusts. Minghao's voice broke the village chief's bad mood.

"Grandpa Village Chief, all the locusts my sister brought have been sold. They are very popular and will be gone in a moment."

"What? Sold? Really sold? Hahaha, I knew Yue was a capable person. Selling some locusts is just a piece of cake. It's not a big deal at all."

"That's good now. The villagers can work hard to catch locusts and make some money from Yue. This winter will probably be much easier, and not so many people will starve or freeze to death."

When the village chief heard Minghao say that it was sold, he suddenly became excited.

If the former village chief was a wilted seedling, now he is a seedling that has just been irrigated by rain, has drunk enough water, and is full of energy.

Minghao watched helplessly as the village chief got off the carriage and prepared to walk towards his sister.

Li Mengyue knew that the land purchase had probably been completed when she saw the village chief, so she went to find a way to get the ducklings out.

"Grandpa Village Chief, is everything going well?"

The village chief knew what Li Mengyue was talking about and said arrogantly, "What's the point of saying that? Don't you see who you are asking for help? There will definitely be no surprises."

At this time, the village chief forgot the injustice he suffered from Zhang Zhubo. If it were not for the silver, he would have almost failed.

But he didn't want Li Mengyue to know this, as long as the deed was completed.

So when Li Mengyue brought a group of children to the village chief Li.

Village chief Li did not ask about the child, but directly took out the land deed that he had kept safely and handed it to Li Mengyue.

"Girl Yue, the village chief didn't let you down. He successfully completed it."

Li Mengyue knew what the village chief was talking about and naturally took the deed.

But when she saw the extra hundred acres of land on the title deed, she became confused.

"Grandpa Village Chief, how come there are 100 more acres?"

"What! Let me see." The village chief exclaimed, took the land deed from Li Mengyue's hand, and saw that there were indeed a hundred acres more, and he didn't know what happened.

In fact, he took the land deed from Zhang Zhubo without even looking at it carefully.

Because he didn't believe that the county government would make a mistake, he didn't expect that it would actually make a mistake.

But it was stamped with the county magistrate's official seal, and it was a deed that the county magistrate had personally reviewed. Could it be wrong? Obviously not.

In this case, there is only one possibility, that is, the county magistrate deliberately added 100 acres of land.

No matter what County Magistrate Yang's purpose was, Li Mengyue decided to take the 100 acres of land, and besides, it was already written on the land deed.
