Seeing that the little girl in front of him only wanted that piece of wasteland, the village chief frowned. He used to be eager to sell that piece of wasteland, but now that the little girl wanted to buy it, he was a little reluctant to deceive her.
"Are you sure? If that wasteland doesn't yield anything or the harvest is poor, you can't come looking for me!"
"Don't worry, village chief, I will absolutely not come looking for you! You've already told me all the bad things about it. It was my insistence on buying that piece of land, and it has nothing to do with you!"
“Alright!” the village chief replied. “You wait for me here!”
The village chief got up and went straight to the backyard. When he returned, he was carrying a box.
"The previous owner entrusted these items to me before leaving, asking me to help sell them. If you want them now, I can transfer the ownership to you right now!"
After the village chief finished speaking, he placed the items on the table one by one. Since the formalities had been completed at the yamen in advance, all that was needed was to fill in Luo Yunhe's name on them and have the village chief stamp them.
Luo Yunhe hadn't expected to acquire that piece of wasteland so easily, but he still didn't know how much it would cost.
"Village chief, how much?" Luo Yunhe asked.
The village chief smiled and said, "It's not expensive. Because that piece of land isn't very good, the price is relatively low. Five taels of silver will do!"
Hearing this, Luo Yunhe silently calculated in her mind how much five taels of silver actually was. She wasn't familiar with the currency conversion here, so it seemed she would have to ask Su Jingxuan about it that evening, otherwise she wouldn't know how the money was converted.
After thinking it over, she took out a small cloth bag from her bosom and put all the money that Su Chenshi and the others had earned from selling themselves that morning in front of the village chief.
The village chief looked at the money in front of him and asked in surprise, "Young lady, are you sure you want to buy it? Once I sign this document, there will be no turning back!"
Luo Yunhe nodded: "Yes, please expedite the transfer of ownership, village chief."
After a moment of silence, the village chief began to carefully count the money. He counted out five silver coins, then returned the rest to Luo Yunhe, saying, "This is enough!"
Luo Yunhe was slightly taken aback, then smiled and said, "Thank you, Village Chief."
The village chief smiled and shook his head, then quickly wrote Luo Yunhe's name on the paper, stamped it with his seal, and handed her the land deed.
Although they were all in traditional Chinese characters, Luo Yunhe still carefully examined them. As a Chinese person, even with traditional characters, she could guess the general idea.
"Village chief, is it this large?"
"Yes, it's a full three acres." Luo Yunhe was also somewhat surprised. If calculated by square meters, it would be 2,000 square meters.
"Well, that piece of land isn't great, but it's bigger!"
Luo Yunhe was overjoyed. She hadn't expected to be able to buy 2,000 square meters of land for only five taels of silver. She thought to herself: If this were the 21st century, owning 2,000 square meters of land would make one an incredibly wealthy person!
Her face flushed with excitement, and she clenched her fists tightly as she asked excitedly, "Then, can I build a house there in the future?"
The village chief replied with a smile, "Now that you've bought that land, it's yours. Whether you want to farm it or build a house is entirely up to you."
Luo Yunhe was filled with joy and gratitude; she wanted to thank Su Chenshi and Su Ruyi.
If they hadn't been arranging to sell me, I wouldn't have been able to get so much money so early in the morning.
Therefore, she couldn't possibly have the money to buy that piece of land!
She carefully tucked the land deed into her bosom, as if she were holding a priceless treasure.
Luo Yunhe left the village chief's house with a satisfied heart, her mood as joyful as a flower blooming in spring.
However, just as she stepped out of the village chief's house, she suddenly found that the men who had brought her there were still waiting at the door.
The smile on her face froze instantly, replaced by astonishment and embarrassment. She stared wide-eyed at the unfamiliar yet familiar faces before her, momentarily at a loss for how to face them.
This is so incredibly awkward!
"Hehe, you, you guys are still here?" Luo Yunhe greeted him with a forced smile.
"Have you finished your business, young lady?"
"Yes, it's done!"
"Is there anything else you need help with, young lady? Or is there anywhere else you need to go? We can help you with anything!"
"Yes, yes, we have nothing to do either..."
A group of men stared at Luo Yunhe, their eyes gleaming as they fixed their gazes on her.
"Ha!!!" Luo Yunhe laughed awkwardly: "Don't you guys go out and work in the fields?"
"I'm not going!"
"All done!"
A group of men shook their heads.
Luo Yunhe: "..." What the hell? They all came out early in the morning with hoes on their backs after finishing their work, clearly heading to the fields.
"Well, I'm going home! You guys go do whatever you need to do!"
"We'll take you!" One by one, the men arrived, their attention quickly returning to him, as if they were truly going to send him back.
Rumors are horrible, she doesn't want this, please don't come anymore, okay? Hurry up and leave, I admit I'm pretty, but that doesn't mean you have to follow me around like simps.
Luo Yunhe thought to herself, but still wore a polite smile on her face.
"Um, you guys..."
"Fine! Li Daikui, I told you to go to the fields early this morning, and you come here looking for death!"
"Yang Dashan..."
"Xu Cai..."
"Wu..."
Suddenly, several angry voices rang out. The men who were enjoying watching the pretty young girl in front of them trembled when they heard these voices. They turned around and saw several women rushing towards them menacingly.
When Luo Yunhe saw this, her eyes widened and she involuntarily distanced herself from the men.
The moment the women rushed over, they each reached out and twisted their men's ears, causing the men to grimace in pain and beg for mercy.
"Ouch, be gentle, be gentle!"
"Wife, I was wrong!"
"I'll never do it again!"
......
Suddenly, the scene became chaotic, with the men being dragged away by their ears by the women, while they kept begging for mercy.
The men who had been surrounding Luo Yunhe looked at her with embarrassment and helplessness.
"Well, you leave all the housework at home unfinished and come here to see young girls. What, do you think I'm dead?"
"I've been working so hard at home, and you're out here looking at other women? Are you looking for trouble?"
After the women finished cursing their own men, they turned around and glared fiercely at Luo Yunhe.
