On the contrary, Chen Xiaobei breathed a long sigh of relief. Talking about money, this matter was actually easier to deal with, "Second Master, let's settle this matter. Later, you can get a land deed, which needs to be signed and pledged."
"There's no need to look back, I'll take care of this now. There are about two acres of land there, and you can pay ten cents a year."
"Okay, Second Master, just give me twenty years for the farming period." Chen Xiaobei said with a smile.
After hearing this, Chen Anbang, the head of the village, immediately felt happy.
For twenty years, I got ten copper coins for nothing every year. This was a good deal.
When Chen Xiaobei came back with the copper coins from home, the paperwork was completed.
With the money in one hand and the documents in the other, Chen Xiaobei returned home satisfied.
Watching Chen Xiaobei leave, Chen Anbang's wife next to him finally spoke.
"Old man, that place turns into a pond when it rains, making it impossible to farm. Aren't you trying to trick people?"
Chen Anbang laughed, "If you can't tell the difference between crops and grass, don't cheat anyone else."
"By the way, these are the dowries brought by Cui Hongyu, and they will all be ours in the future."
His wife looked at him in confusion, "Well, how come this is still ours..."
Chen Anbang also realized that he had said too much, and smiled pretending to be relaxed, "You don't need to hand these over to the county, they are ours."
This explanation seems to be rounded off.
Seeing that his wife did not continue to ask, Chen Anbang threw the three big men on the table and said, "Go back and get some meat to eat."
Chen Xiaobei returned home and gave Cui Hongyu the written land deed document and asked her to keep it.
Cui Hongyu was dumbfounded again, "Husband, you'd better take such an important thing by yourself!"
Chen Xiaobei's answer was still domineering, "I will give it to you as I say. From now on, the work will be mine, and the safekeeping will be yours."
All right. Cui Hongyu said nothing, but suddenly felt that she seemed to like this domineering and unreasonable feeling.
"Husband, you rest first while I go to the back to water the vegetables."
After hearing this, Chen Xiaobei realized that he seemed to have neglected the vegetable field in the past two days.
You still need an iron pot to pour vegetables.
It seems that it is time to get two wooden barrels, which is a big expense.
So I had to go into the mountains to try my luck and see if I could get two ginseng trees.
At this moment, the second aunt Xiumei came unexpectedly. When she saw Chen Xiaobei, she was very anxious.
"Xiao Bei, I just heard that you want to plant the lowland outside the village."
Chen Xiaobei nodded, "Yes, the family will have more food to eat. There is not enough food."
The second aunt stamped her feet anxiously, "That place can raise fish even if there is a heavy rain, and nothing will grow."
Chen Xiaobei was very indifferent, "Isn't that good? I'll just use it to raise fish."
"You." The second aunt sighed helplessly. He looked at Chen Xiaobei with an expression of concern for the mentally retarded.
"By the way, Dachun asked me to tell you that you may have to find someone else to repair the house. He may not be able to get out of bed for a while."
Chen Xiaobei nodded, "Second Aunt, I understand, let's talk about this later."
The second aunt said a few more polite words and left, but Chen Xiaobei suddenly felt that something was wrong.
He went to see Dachun yesterday, and the wound was still a little red and swollen, but during the conversation with himself, he was already very conscious. How could he still be unable to get out of bed for so many days?
What he didn't know was that at this time, Dachun's family was already thinking about a bright future. The family was planning to buy a big house in the county and live the life of a rich man they longed for.
After all, this one thousand taels of silver may be money that they will never earn in their lifetime.
At this time, Chen Xiaobei was still running for life.
He made full preparations for this trip to the mountains. The first was to look for ginseng, and the second was to collect some Houttuynia cordata.
When we arrived at the Shanshen Temple, it seemed that we were familiar with the journey, but after searching around the Shanshen Temple, there was nothing.
Chen Xiaobei gritted his teeth and continued walking up.
If you can go up there in the spring, why can’t you go there?
Going up the mountain temple, the road becomes rugged and difficult to walk. In some places you have to use your hands and feet to climb up.
As he walked, Chen Xiaobei felt that something was wrong.
Yes, there are a lot of gravel marks on the road.
And the weeds on the ground looked like they had been stepped on by many people.
Logically speaking, it is impossible for Dachun to make so many traces by himself.
So there were others going up the mountain and more than one.
There are few weeds on the way down from the mountain temple, but you can see clearly in these places.
After walking five or six miles in one breath, there was a large dense forest on the right hand side in front of me.
There is a seemingly inconspicuous path leading to the dense forest, with steep cliffs on one side and cliffs going straight up and down on the other.
Going through it really tests one’s courage.
But for Chen Xiaobei, who grew up in a rural area, he still has some courage.
But when he came over, he felt a little discouraged. There were many plants in the dense forest, but there was nothing he wanted. They were all common weeds at the foot of the mountain.
Just when he was about to give up, he felt a faint scent coming from him.
The scent came from deep in the forest, and he was sure it was the scent of a plant.
Chen Xiaobei continued to follow the smell, and as he walked further in, he felt a little strange.
There are fewer trees as you go further in, and gradually there are no more weeds on the ground, with only a few low shrubs.
Walking further in, there are several more boulders lying in front of you, with only a small opening in the middle.
This small opening is probably only one foot wide. It's several feet deep. Through this, you can easily see the situation on the other side.
The place is lush and green, with all kinds of low plants and no big trees.
It's so strange, there are trees here and grass there.
Chen Xiaobei broke off a branch again, patted the weeds on the roadside, and walked inside.
Chen Xiaobei was shocked by what he saw when he walked inside.
As soon as I walked in, there were two ginseng trees among the weeds nearby. The red marks were really easy to recognize, and they looked very old.
Darling, is this a greeting gift for yourself? Chen Xiaobei became excited.
After walking another half mile, Chen Xiaobei saw something that made him even more excited.
Ganoderma lucidum.
When he was a child, several families in the village once wanted to plant this kind of thing. He also visited the plantation with the adults, so Chen Xiaobei still had some impressions.
The Ganoderma lucidum here isn't just a few, it's just one piece. It looks like there must be dozens or hundreds of them.
Darling, I really found the treasure.
Chen Xiaobei picked the two largest ones.
Two ginseng plants and two Ganoderma lucidum plants made today’s trip worthwhile.
At this moment, an inexplicable gust of wind blew up, and then a dark cloud drifted over, and the darkness instantly blocked the sun.
When Chen Xiaobei saw that the secret passage was not good, he turned around and ran away.
Sure enough, before he could run to the woods, the rain had already started falling.
Fortunately, okay, Chen Xiaobei breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he didn't go too deep.
Forget it, since God doesn't like it, just go back and pick Houttuynia cordata.
