Chapter 480: All the reminders have been made
Bu Wei had reminded them that the villagers of Yongfeng Village were xenophobic, but he didn't know that Xian Cheng's hometown was in Yongfeng Village, and his relatives were also here...
If the officer hadn't said that, they would probably be confused when trouble came.
"The Lin family lives in the north, and the Guo family lives in the west. Both families know how to deal with current events, so they can get along with the Qian family."
From what he said, it seemed that he was saying that the Gu family and the other two families were ignorant of current affairs, and that was why they suffered these...
No wonder Ran Qingxuan was curious about why this village, which looked quite wealthy, was so kind as to assign them here.
In fact, County Magistrate Tang assigned them to Yongfeng Village probably because he wanted the Qian County Cheng family to take action.
As for being ostracized by the villagers, it was probably the Qian family that took the lead, and the other two major families followed suit to ostracize them for offending the county magistrate.
Ran Qingxuan wanted to ask more questions, so he reached into the cloth bag he was carrying, took out a few ounces of silver and stuffed it into the officer's pocket.
"Thank you for the reminder, sir, but where are we going to stay after we get here?"
This is also a concern of several other families. The Qian family is the largest in the southeast corner, and they will definitely not be allowed to live there if they offend the county magistrate.
If the other two families want to live in peace here, they will not choose to offend the Qian family, and they will certainly not be allowed to live here.
The official who received the money did not expect that he could get the benefit that County Magistrate Tang did not get by just saying a few words, and he smiled so hard that his teeth were exposed.
For this little bit of money, he would say a few more words, put the money away, and point casually to the foot of the westernmost mountain.
"About a mile in between the Guo family and the Lin family, there are some uninhabited houses at the foot of the mountain.
You have been settled there by County Magistrate Tang, and it has been stamped, but..."
The officer seemed to be hesitant to speak, and Gu Yanchen looked at him with a stern look and said calmly, "Just what?"
The official shuddered and said hastily, "It's just that those uninhabited houses have fallen into disrepair and are leaking everywhere.
If you want to survive this winter, you must convince the patriarchs of the other two families to rent you their houses in the village. ”
The officer took two steps forward and whispered, "The head of Yongfeng Village is Qian Xiancheng's biological father. The prisoners sent here don't need to say hello, the Qian family will know what's going on."
"This winter is hard enough. If the Qian family makes things difficult for you, I'm afraid it will be even harder for you. It's better to be careful."
The other two families heard the official's words clearly and couldn't help but feel worried.
The Gu family was not worried, especially since there were no longer only women in the family like before.
The Gu family did not take clowns like the Qian family seriously.
But being bullied is not a big deal. What is scary is that the Yigui people may come over Maoling Mountain at any time.
If this is true, I'm afraid they will have to keep one eye open and alert even when they sleep at night.
The officer in front of them seemed easy to talk to. As their family had just arrived in a strange place, it was inevitable that they did not know the seriousness of the matter.
If I could get acquainted with the official in front of me, I could just pay some money to get things done in the future.
Thinking of this, Ran Qingxuan smiled and took a few steps forward, handing over a few more pieces of silver...
"I don't know how to address this official?"
After receiving the money, the official was still a little dazed, thinking that the Gu family was not short of money, but just didn't want to let County Magistrate Tang get it for free.
After hearing Ran Qingxuan's question, she laughed even more happily.
"Oh my... you... My surname is Qin and my given name is Jun. I don't think you are the kind of people who are looking for trouble. If you have any questions in the future, you can come to the government office to find me."
It was obvious that these people were soft-hearted and would not respond to hardship. County Magistrate Tang thought he could control anyone, so he could not get a penny from them.
If you want to get some benefits from them in the future, you may have to be soft.
When another officer saw that Qin Jun had gained benefits from the Gu family, he approached him with a fake smile.
"Since the distribution has been made, I have to remind you that it is best not to go to the abandoned houses near the Lin clan..."
Everyone was waiting for his next words, but unexpectedly he fell silent in the middle of his speech.
"Why do you always leave things unfinished when you speak?" The second sister-in-law hated people talking like that the most, so she asked with a frown.
"Why can't we go there?"
Unexpectedly, the officer just waited there without answering, obviously trying to get some benefits from them.
But several families hate this kind of people the most. What's the difference between him and that County Magistrate Tang...
Not getting any benefits, the officer snorted coldly and turned to leave.
As soon as he raised his foot, Gu Yanzong pushed the wheelchair and turned a little, and the iron step almost tripped him.
While he was bending over and wailing, Gu Yanzong grabbed him with his big hand and brought him to his side like a chicken.
"If you don't tell me, I'll break your neck!"
Gu Yanzong's eyes flashed with ferocity, and the officer had no doubt that he would really do it.
After all, he was his colleague, so Qin Jun quickly stepped out to smooth things over.
"Let's talk it over. Let him go and I'll talk to you..."
Gu Yanzong loosened his hands, and the coffin took a few steps back, covering its neck.
"It's like this. There's a madman who kills people without blinking an eye in the house near the Lin family's territory."
"There is no well where you live, so you can only go there to get water. If you pass by and see it, you must leave quickly and don't provoke it."
The official who didn't get any benefits snorted coldly, turned around and left. Qin Jun smiled awkwardly and motioned them to follow him.
"Anyway, I've already reminded you of what you should do. You can handle it on your own."
Qin Jun and his colleagues led them to the open space in the middle. When they passed the southeast side, they noticed that the houses along the way were built strangely.
In particular, the gates of every household were closed, and the courtyard walls were built nearly two meters high.
When they were about to reach the open space in the village, Qin Jun led them to turn right and walked straight in for three to five minutes before stopping.
Another official knocked on the door, and Qin Jun whispered to the Gu family, "This is where Qian Xiancheng's father and his family live."
Gu Yanchen bowed his head politely to thank him for the reminder.
After a few knocks, the door was opened by someone inside. It was a woman in her thirties.
"Oh, that's really strange."
The woman had a shrill voice and squinting eyes, and it looked like she was not someone to be trifled with.
Qin Jun smiled and walked forward a few steps and said, "Sister Qian, are you home?"
The woman squinted her eyes, glanced up and down at the group of people behind him, and then spoke.
"My father-in-law is not here, we can talk about it tomorrow if we have anything to say."
He didn't even give people a chance to react. Slam the door shut.
Qin Jun put down his hands awkwardly. It was obviously not the first time he encountered such a situation.
Several families also knew that this was a warning to these exiled prisoners, and that they might be even more excessive in the future.
However, after the government allocated the houses, the village head had to stamp their approval before the matter was finalized. Without the stamp, their actions would naturally be restricted.
After all, Qin Jun had received several taels of silver from others as a bribe, so seeing this situation, he had no other choice but to remind them.
Besides, his colleague is still there, and if I say too much, he might go back and tell on me.
