Zhan Qingyue was naturally overjoyed when she saw that Han Yiyun had obtained the settlement certificate.
"Brother Han, let's go back quickly and tell everyone the good news."
With a smile on her face, Zhan Qingyue carefully touched the cinnabar mark on the voucher, took the voucher into her arms, and looked at Han Yiyun gratefully. He had been of great help this time.
The village where they are about to settle is not far from the county seat and is a place called Changfu Village.
The two returned to the camp and couldn't wait to tell everyone the good news.
Everyone swept away their previous fatigue and packed their luggage one after another without even bothering to make lunch.
"Miss Yue, Master Tongsheng, you two are the great saviors of our team."
"Miss Yue, I can't wait any longer. Please take us to that Chang Village to stay."
"Look at you, I can't even remember the name. It's Changfu Village."
Zhan Qingyue felt moved as she listened to everyone's banter. After months of escaping from the wilderness and walking for several months, it finally came to an end.
The days ahead are getting more and more promising, and as long as everyone is more diligent, things will get better and better.
When they arrived at Changfu Village, Li Zhong, the head of Changfu Village, turned over the settlement certificate several times. The cinnabar red marks were all bright and it didn't look like it was a fake.
Li Zhong had a long and dark face, his thin lips were pursed tightly, his nostrils were blowing hot air, and his dirty hands crumpled the settlement certificate.
He stuffed the settlement certificate back into Han Yiyun's arms with a pop, raised his brows, and said contemptuously: "No!"
"Village chief, why can't it work? We have all the procedures in place, what's wrong? What do you think is missing? I'll go to the county government to make up for it?"
Hearing what he said, Zhan Qingyue felt anxious and confused, fearing that the place she had finally found would be lost.
Han Yiyun frowned, raised his hand and patted Zhan Qingyue's arm gently to express comfort.
Li Zhong snorted coldly and raised his head arrogantly: "You are a bunch of refugees. There are so many people in my village. I only have a small area. I want a house but no house, and I want land but no land. Isn't this making things difficult for me?"
"Forgive me for not being able to accept so many people. Even if the county magistrate comes, I will say this."
Zhan Qingyue and Han Yiyun looked at each other helplessly.
When we first entered the village, everyone saw it.
Although the village is not big and there are no empty houses to share, there is a lot of wasteland. If you work hard, you can still use the wasteland as a good place.
What Li Zhong said about not having a house or land was just an excuse.
Zhan Qingyue said patiently: "Village Chief, it doesn't matter if there are no houses in the village. I think there are still open spaces and wastelands around. We can open it ourselves. I just ask you to tolerate our place."
Li Zhong looked at her humble appearance and raised his nostrils higher, thinking that he had controlled these two people.
"I said no, it's no, and don't talk to me about what's available and what's not."
He put one hand on his hip and pointed at the empty wasteland next to him with the other hand: "These open spaces will be left to the young people in the village to build houses, and those wastelands will be used for the boys in the village to graze cattle and sheep. Without you, you can't settle down." The place."
"Look at this bunch of refugees, who knows if there are some sneaky, criminal and criminal people among you who might cause trouble in my land later. Who will be responsible if there is a problem?"
"If skinny and skinny people die on my land, it will ruin the feng shui of our village."
His words became more and more unpleasant, and both Zhan Qingyue and Han Yiyun's faces turned extremely dark.
I saw Zhan Qingyue clenching her fists tightly, suppressing the urge in her heart to slap him twice in the face, and grinning with anger. She had no choice but to ask for help from others, and she couldn't be violent. She was really frustrated.
Seeing that the matter was becoming stalemate, Han Yiyun grimaced and secretly released the pressure of the powerful person.
"Li Zhong! I think you are the head of the village, so I can speak kindly to you. Don't toast me without eating. We refugees have the approval of the government to settle in your village."
"According to the laws of the dynasty, you are committing the crime of deceiving the emperor! Could it be..." Han Yiyun rolled his eyes and looked at Li Zhong several times defensively: "Don't you want to occupy the mountain and become the king yourself? He’s a local emperor, so that’s why he won’t let refugees like us settle here, right?”
When Li Zhong heard the tall hat Han Yiyun put on him, he suddenly became furious and stuttered with anger, unable to even speak clearly.
"You, you, you...don't bully others too much!"
He roared, waved his sleeves and walked away.
After seeing off the village chief, Zhan Qingyue finally breathed a sigh of relief and cast a grateful look at Han Yiyun. She saw everyone in the team not far away looking worriedly.
She hurriedly stepped forward and comforted her: "Don't worry, everyone. If we don't have a house, we will build it ourselves. If there is no farmland, we will open up wasteland ourselves. We have walked through such a difficult road, are we still afraid of hardship?"
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but talk about it.
"Yes, but I don't have a house or farmland. This is much better than traveling all the time."
"Everyone works harder in the first two months, building houses and clearing wasteland. If you work harder later on, you will not be able to live a prosperous life."
Seeing that everyone was not defeated by the difficulties before them, Zhan Qingyue felt relieved, so she suggested to Han Yiyun to go out and look for a place where everyone could stay for a long time.
The two of them walked around the village. As soon as they saw a piece of wasteland, a villager came up with a hatchet and shouted: "What do you want to do? This is my family's land. Come on, you are not welcome here!"
Zhan Qingyue and Han Yiyun had no choice but to leave and continue to the next place.
Naihe walked around the village and saw villagers coming out to drive away anyone who saw an empty space.
"This Li Zhong has really lost his conscience. If he hadn't arranged this, I wouldn't believe it."
Han Yiyun cursed dissatisfiedly. This feeling of being unable to vent his anger was really frustrating.
Zhan Qingyue stood on the high ground and glanced around, frowning and said: "Since the village chief doesn't want us to enter the village, then we simply won't enter the village. We will choose a good location and build a village of our own to save time. There will be countless conflicts with the people in Changfu Village in the future."
"Our own village?" Han Yiyun's eyes lit up as he muttered these words.
This group of people has been together all the way, and they can be regarded as close friends of life and death. If they can build a village of their own, they will definitely be more united than other villages, and they can work together in one place.
"Yueyue, let's go, let's choose a place to build a village."
After the two left, a villager crawled out of the bushes not far away and hurried towards the village chief Li Zhong's home.
"Build your own village?"
Li Zhong thought about it, his heart became even more disdainful, and the smile on his face was almost unbearable.
"Let's just wait and watch the excitement. I want to see how they build it?"
