Before dawn the next day, the front door of Liu¡¯s house was packed with people from Xishan who came after hearing the news.
Yesterday, the big families spread the news, and all the people in the seven villages and eight alleys stayed up all night. I came here early to queue up with my family's land deed in Xishan, for fear that I wouldn't be able to find this shop after passing this village.
Over the years, they have all settled on the shore and no one will return to Xishan again. Being able to exchange useless barren mountains and abandoned shabby houses for some money is really a piece of pie in the sky.
Liu Zhengqi has already prepared the money.
He sat at the door of the sedan hall, waiting for the steward to check the land and house deeds, draw up the sales contract, and then sign and seal it.
After the seller also signs, stamps or fingerprints, he can take the money and leave.
???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? After a whole morning of busy work, Liu Zhengqi kept signing and stamping, and his wrists were sore.
"How many more households are there?" he asked the manager while flexing his wrist.
"The team is still very long, and it will definitely not be finished in one day." The manager raised his head to take a look, but saw a commotion outside. "Master, it seems we have guests."
Liu Zhengqi also stood up and looked at a group of wealthy slaves in brocade clothes surrounding an eight-carriage sedan. They roughly pushed away the fellow villagers who were queuing up and stopped at the gate.
The bearer lowered the sedan pole, the attendant lifted the curtain, and helped out an old man in his forties with a white face, dark circles under his eyes, and a look of kidney deficiency.
"Oh, the second master is back so early?" Liu Zhengqi hurriedly walked around the table and stepped forward to greet him.
This second master is not that second master, but Xu Kun, the second son of Xu Jie.
The old man with kidney deficiency is in charge of the Xu family's large-scale industries in Suzhou and stays in Suzhou for most of the year. Last time, because my father returned to his hometown, I hurried back to Songjiang. I originally said that I would spend time with the old man and not come back until next month.
"Didn't you send a letter saying that you were bullied by the boy named Zhao?" Xu Kun walked into the sedan hall angrily, took a look at the money in the room, and couldn't help but laugh: "You were forced to do this?"
Liu Zhengqi hurriedly whispered to the steward and asked the fellow villagers to go back first for lunch.
Then invite Xu Kun into the flower hall to have tea.
??~~
In the flower hall, Xu Kun crossed his legs and sat on the Taishi chair, listening to Liu Zhengqi crying about the experiences of the past few days.
" He said that if Xishan Island is not given to him within three days, the villain will have to pay five hundred thousand taels of silver, or he will have his house confiscated and beheaded." Liu Yuanwai was like a bullied dog, wagging his tail at his master and begging for mercy. .
"What do you believe in what others say?" Xu Kun picked up the teacup, used the cup lid to skim the foam, and said with a smile: "You are still the president of the Dongting Chamber of Commerce."
"It's the vice president" Mr. Liu shrank his neck and whispered, "Butler Wang knows that villains have too many things."
"Look at your courage. There have been many people suing me, but the Suzhou government hasn't brought me in for questioning?" Xu Kun curled his lips and said, "I'm here to protect you, what are you afraid of?"
"He said that he would directly complain to the Minister of Justice and the Bachelor of the Ministry of Justice in Beijing. If that doesn't work, he would still file a complaint against the imperial court." Liu Yuanwai said with lingering fear.
"Listen to his nonsense, he is just bluffing you!" Xu Kun laughed loudly and said: "He has a child with no hair, and he still wants to sue? It's just a dream."
"How should I say, he still has some connections in Beijing." Liu Yuanwai said softly.
"Can you compare with my family?" Xu Kun raised his neck, blew his beard and glared: "Among the people he brought up to complain, which one was not promoted by my father? As long as I say a word, none of them will mind their own business. ?¡±
"That's true." Liu Yuanwai nodded.
"So" Xu Kun nodded proudly, lowered his voice and said to Liu Zhengqi: "To tell you the truth, my eldest brother hates that kid. He heard that you were going to deal with Zhao Hao, so he came with him. ¡±
"Oh?" Liu Yuanwai said in surprise: "Is the uncle here too?"
"Well, I went to pay a visit to Lin Zhongcheng." Xu Kun sneered and said, "There's nothing to be afraid of now, right? Just follow him to the end!"
"What do you mean by the second master?" Liu Zhengqi's head was pounding for a while. It was really like the tree was trying to be quiet but the wind was not stopping.
"Aren't your fellow villagers outside? Tell them that the boy named Zhao wants to rob your ancestral property and dig up your ancestral graves! I don't believe you can't arouse their anger."
"As the saying goes, a strong dragon cannot overwhelm a local snake. Besides, that guy is not a river-crossing dragon. The eels crossing the river are about the same. Tomorrow you call all your people from Xishan, and my brother will also bring hundreds of people to support you. ." As he spoke, he slapped the tea cup on the table and gritted his teeth:
"Let's go to Dashengwan together to fuck him"?¡¯s! "
"Hiss" Liu Zhengqi gasped, and said timidly: "That would be a complete mess."
"I'm afraid it won't cause too much trouble. We are defending our homeland, and killing them will not violate the king's law!" Xu Kun curled his lips and said indifferently:
"You just need to take the person there, and everything else will be taken care of by my brother!"
"Uh" Liu Zhengqi looked constipated and asked bravely: "Second Master, can we resolve this peacefully?"
"Fuck you!" Xu Kun jumped up, hit Liu Zhengqi's head with a fan, and lectured him fiercely:
"But you called me here, and now you want to back down? What do you think I am?!"
"The dog is still in their hands." Liu Yuanwai said with a grimace.
"What are you afraid of? You have already said that they are from the government. How can they still kill your son?" Xu Kun didn't care. He grabbed Yuan Liu by the collar and said viciously: "If you shrink your head, I will kill you." Damn you! Did you hear that?"
"I heard it, I heard it." Liu Zhengqi responded tremblingly.
Xu Kun then let go of Liu Zhengqi and staggered away.
Liu Zhengqi slumped on the chair again, his eyes straightened, as if he had seen the horrific scene of his home being ransacked and being tortured
"Master, master." The steward called several times from the side.
"Ah!" Liu Zhengqi was startled and said with a pale face, "What's wrong?"
"Do you want to buy the land yet?" the steward asked in a low voice. He heard the conversation between the two just now. "Or should we do as Mr. Xu said?"
"Let me think about it, let me think about it" Mr. Liu stood up holding the handrail, pacing back and forth in the flower hall, thinking hard.
Even a blind person can see that Xu Kun is not here to support himself, but to use this matter to settle accounts with Zhao Hao.
In Liu Yuanwai's opinion, Zhao Hao's energy is naturally inferior to that of the Xu family.
But that kid had already stopped talking. No matter how the Xu family dealt with him, they would just do it to Yuan Liu alone.
Liu Zhengqi, whose surname is not Xu, is still the culprit. If the trouble is really big, he may be the first to be dragged out to take the blame.
¡°Besides, Zhao Hao didn¡¯t push him to a dead end after all, but still gave him a way out.
We have already made up our minds to cut off the meat and go ashore, do we really want to turn around and wade in this muddy water again?
When gods fight, the one who dies in the end must be a mortal like himself
With this thought in mind, he finally made a difficult decision: "Let's continue buying land."
