When Lao Yang's family was in turmoil and Lao Yang's belongings were thrown onto the road by the furious Yang Huaming, Immortal Yang Yong had already arrived at the boundary of Huguang County.
To the east of Huguang County, there is a place called Baie Town. It is the poorest and most backward town among the several towns under the jurisdiction of Huguang County.
Unlike other towns with prosperous waterways, Baie Town is dotted with large and small lakes. The endless reeds and wetlands are the most notable features here.
The main livelihood of the people in Baie Town is farming, and there are relatively few fishermen who make a living by fishing compared to other towns in Huguang County.
The main reason is that the roads here are underdeveloped and far away from the big rivers. A waterway cannot go straight through to the bottom. The dry roads are also cut into strips by these large and small lakes. Therefore, the local people are miserable and say that these lakes are like worms on a good cloth. hole.
But for Yang Yongxian, this is a paradise for him to make a fortune.
Following the guidance of Yang Huaan in his dream, he came to Baie Town. He walked along the banks of these large and small lakes, looking at the endless reeds and the big white birds that occasionally flew up from the reeds. He felt so relaxed and happy. It's like a new life.
He has thought everything about doing business.
The first step is to get the capital.
Now, he has a silver note with a face value of one hundred taels. It is easy to rent a medium-sized lake here.
Then ask two fishermen who are familiar with the water properties and pay them to get two small boats to row into the lake every day to spread bait.
Fish farming is his cover to the outside world.
But the truth is, he wants to raise another kind of thing here.
He looked up at the big white bird flying from time to time among the reeds, with joy in his eyes.
Huguang County is located in the south of Daqi's geographical map, but compared with the southern areas of Licheng, Yuncheng, and Xiushui Town, which are like spring all year round, it is relatively cold here, at least it will snow in winter.
These big white birds have a unified name among the local people, called white geese.
The books in Yang Yongxian's belly were not in vain. These white geese have another name, called swans.
These swans all come from the north, and every autumn they migrate in groups from north to south to spend the winter.
When they flew to this area of Huguang County, they were quite tired from the long journey. There were many old, weak, sick and disabled people in the team who could not fly. In addition, there were many reeds, wetlands and lakes in this area, which was a favorite place for swans to live.
Therefore, some of the migrating team will stay here to rest and wait for the arrival of next spring.
Clams are what these swans like to eat.
That's right, what Yang Yongxian really wants to raise in the lake he leased is clams.
Most clams can condense pearls into their bodies. Even if clams in shallow waters and flowing rivers can form pearls, the particles are usually very small.
The clams that can truly condense large, plump, round pearls are hidden in the deepest part of the lake.
There is a saying that the fisherman benefits from the competition between snipe and clam. Snipe can only prey on clams in shallow waters, while swans are master hunters of clams in deep lakes.
Swans also have picky tastes, and they usually like to prey on fat clams in deep waters.
So what Yang Yongxian has to do is to stay here, be the last hunter, and become a big jewelry merchant!
This is a long road, and if we want to see results, we will at least have to wait until next spring for the flowers to bloom and the birds to return.
But now, he can prepare first. For this, Yang Yongxian is full of fighting spirit!
…
Changping Village.
"What's going on with the old man now?"
Yang Huazhong held a wine cup in his hand and drank from a plate of peanuts in front of him. Next to him, Yang Huaming and Yang Yongqing sat.
Yang Huaming was also drinking. Hearing this, he said without raising his head: "What a tough guy to talk about. Anyway, I threw all his things outside the yard. The locks were changed in the house and yard. Now he can enter." not going."
Yang Huazhong's brows knitted together. He had never dreamed of this situation before.
I never thought that my brother would really kick the old man out one day.
Yang Yongzhi ate a peanut and said angrily: "Third uncle, don't worry, the little grandpa sent my grandpa to stay at his house."
Yang Huazhong nodded, "Luckily he still has a brother, otherwise, huh, he would really suffer a lot!"
Yang Huaming said: "My uncle is also troublesome. I just want to see if I can force him to relent, or force Yongxian back, but my uncle is being a bad person again!"
Yang Huazhong glanced at Yang Huaming and said, "Don't be too extreme in everything. Even if my uncle wants to pick him up, if he goes to his house, the conditions will definitely be worse than at home. Let him suffer a little!"
While talking, Sun and Liao Meiying came over.
Both of them were holding two plates in their hands. On the plates were cucumbers, scrambled eggs, ground delicacies, and a bowl of rice.
"Don't worry about drinking. Eat some food to calm down." Mrs. Sun said, putting the food on the table.
But the three people on the table were so angry that they really didn't feel anything about these meals at the moment.
"Third uncle, fourth uncle, that bastard Yongxian has taken out the land deed. Can we still live in the old house?" Liao Meiying asked Yang Huazhong weakly.
Before Yang Huazhong could speak, Yang Huaming said angrily: "Why don't you live in it? That was the house we were given openly and honestly when we separated. Not only do we have to live in it, we also have to pass it on to the next generation!"
"If the land deed is bought by someone and the buyer comes to inspect the house, what should we do?" Liao Meiying asked again.
Yang Huaming put his chopsticks heavily on the table: "How dare he! This is our territory, our brothers will kick him out!"
Yang Yongzhi also turned red and nodded vigorously.
Yang Yongqing, who arrived later and knew the whole process, grinned and said: "When I get back, I will sharpen the rusty hatchet in the house. From now on, whoever dares to hang the hatchet on his waist will Who can I fight to take over the house?"
Yang Huazhong glared at Yang Yongqing: "Put away the knife. The sword has no eyes. Don't fail to scare others and hurt your own family."
He turned to Yang Huaming and Yang Yongzhi and said, "You guys can live in the house in a down-to-earth manner. As long as I'm here, I won't let anyone take over the house!"
"Tomorrow, one of you will come with me to the town. We will go and inquire about the pawnshops in the town. If we find out, I will redeem the land deed. The land deed of our old Yang family cannot fall into the hands of others."
Yang Huaming said: "Third brother, I will go to the town with you tomorrow. I used to hang out in the town when I was young. I know that there are not only pawn shops in the town to collect those things, but also some gambling houses and banks. For this kind of business, let’s go find it together.”
Seeing the men of Lao Yang's family discussing how to clean up this mess, Liao Meiying was really ashamed and embarrassed.
She took out a handkerchief wrapped in red silk and gently opened it. Inside was a pair of silver bracelets belonging to a child.
