Xie Jiang saw that Xie Pingsheng was stunned, and it was difficult for him to step forward, so he urged: "Go, just say so."
"Does our family have so much money?" Although Xie Pingsheng has many unscrupulous ways to get money and is usually not short of money, that doesn't mean he can take out ten thousand taels at a time.
What is the concept of ten thousand taels? Even a third-rank official in the imperial court like Jian Yu would have to save for twenty years without food or water if he only received his salary. Those who can afford ten thousand taels must not be rich in the capital. Or maybe a treasure has been found.
When Shen Ye was summoned by Jian Yu and informed of the plan, he raised questions while holding a heavy amount of money.
"Fifty taels per person, don't you think it's too much? At least a hundred people can come with this shout. I understand why you spent 10,000 taels on a beauty at Taohua Temple, but this can be solved with only two taels per person. Why do you need to spend so much money on something like this?"
In today's market conditions, a prime-age labor force may not be able to earn two taels of silver a year. It only takes a few days to dig the mountain, but if you give it one, two taels, everyone will run very fast.
Jian Yu told him that the fifty taels were not for the villagers, but for Xie Jiang. You told everyone that the fifty taels were a month's wages. After working for a few days, you stopped and said that you had read Feng Shui wrong and there was no need to do it. Okay, just one person can compensate three to five taels.
With such a huge momentum, Xie Jiang's trump card was forced out, and he didn't have to spend so much money. The villagers also benefited, and everyone was happy and satisfied.
When Jian Yu said this, Bai Yue nodded frequently with a smile on his face. Apparently the two of them came up with this evil idea together, and it's hard to say who is the mastermind.
Bai Yue said: "We now suspect that Xie Jiang has a problem. If he has a problem, he is not just a escapist who hides his name in order to escape and just wants to live a stable life. He must have a trump card. Grab what he cares about and force him to reveal it. Show your trump cards and show your true colors."
What's even more frightening is that when these discussions were being discussed, Xie Jiang's biological son Xie Pingsheng was actually present, sitting aside with an expressionless face, as if the person who was about to be tricked was not his biological father.
We are not a family, and we don’t enter the same house. People gather in groups, and things are divided into groups. Shen Ye felt quite emotional at that time, and then went to find the village chief with money.
Xie Jiang's face became darker and darker as he watched the hillside being dug up shovel by shovel, and the soil being loaded up in load after load, saying it would be transported to a nearby lake to fill in the lake.
"You don't have to worry about money, I still have some savings." Xie Jiang said: "No matter what, you can't let them touch your mother's tomb, otherwise I will be unjust and you will be unfilial."
Yao Linhua's tomb is now a bit messy. Although the village chief promised not to move it, hundreds of people came over. The tomb is at the foot of the hillside. It is not so easy to take care of. Therefore, Xie Jiang could not tell for a while that the tomb had been dug up and re-opened. Landfilled again.
"Then I'll go talk to the village chief first." Xie Pingsheng hesitated: "Dad, don't force it. This money is not a small amount. If it doesn't work, we will find a way or find a good place for my mother."
"No." Xie Jiang said resolutely: "Your mother's tomb can only be here. It was chosen by her herself. It must not be touched."
Xie Pingsheng was urged by Xie Jiang, so he had to go to the village chief. He went to the village chief and then to Mr. Yi. After all the good words, he finally calmed him down after a while.
The village chief hesitated and said: "You must keep your word. I can ask people to stop first, but if you lie to us, we will continue to work tomorrow."
"Yes, yes, definitely." Xie Pingsheng promised repeatedly: "Let the folks have a rest, and I will keep my word."
The village chief believed in Shen Ye, because he didn't know Shen Ye. He just thought that this person seemed to have a profound sense of immortality. And he knew Xie Pingsheng. He had lived in the same village for so long, and no one knew who he was. You, Xie Pingsheng, usually If you make money by setting up a stall here, you won't be able to earn more than 10,000 taels in two lifetimes.
"Thank you." The village chief said meaningfully: "I understand that your mother's grave is here, and you are afraid that she will be disturbed. But don't worry, we will definitely be careful. When the village gets rich in the future, you will also belong to the village. As a member of the family, I won’t treat you badly. Your mother is alive in heaven, and I’m glad to see you.”
In desperation, Xie Pingsheng swore an oath and promised that the money came from a legitimate and clean source. Only then, for the sake of his fellow villagers over the years, did he ask everyone to stop working first.
Seeing everyone collecting their things and leaving one after another, Xie Jiang finally breathed a sigh of relief, but his expression did not improve much and he looked at the hillside gloomily.
Xie Pingsheng knew what he was looking at. He was looking at the seven finger bones and was afraid that they would be dug out. The villagers dug soil with a hammer here and a stick here and there, instead of digging evenly layer by layer. Although the few finger bones were buried deep , but it may not have been dug out and mixed in the soil.
"Dad." Xie Pingsheng said, "Let's go back."
"You go back first." Xie Jiang walked over slowly: "I want to talk to your mother."
Although Jian Yu did not restrict Xie Jiang's freedom, he was followed when he went out.
No restriction, just for Xie Pingsheng's sake, he treats you as one of his own. But after all, he is not really innocent, there are still some suspicions on him, so before the matter of the Shitu spy and the star-condensing killer is completely figured out, He can only stay in Dali Temple. It's okay to eat and drink well, but don't make any trouble.
When Xie Pingsheng heard that his father wanted to stay, he said firmly: "Dad, I will accompany you."
"No need." Xie Jiang waved his hands repeatedly: "Go back, look at your clothes, go back and change clothes and rest for a while."
"It's okay." Xie Pingsheng said, "Dad, I know you feel bad. I'm here to accompany you so we can talk."
Xie Jiang was determined not to: "Go back if I ask you to. I want to be alone for a while."
Xie Jiang insisted, but Xie Pingsheng couldn't resist, so he had to worry about it and walked away. When he turned around and left, his face immediately darkened.
Naturally, Jian Yu's people still followed Xie Jiang. You said it was okay to protect him, you said it was okay to monitor him. They were not like Xie Pingsheng who could negotiate. The order they received was to follow Xie Jiang outside. Xie Jiang was not an expert. Of course you can run, but after this run, it will be difficult to end.
Xie Pingsheng returned to Dali Temple with a sullen face, but Jian Yu and Bai Yue were not there.
Peiqi was working as a female celebrity in the house, and she heard Xie Pingsheng ask: "The young master and the young lady went out, saying that there was progress in the disappearance case in the shanty town. Brother Liang came over and said something, and hurried away .And took Xiaoxia away."
Xiao Xia is Xia Jian. Peggy is a kind-hearted girl and feels pity for Xia Jian. Bai Yue asked her to take care of her first and was very dedicated. The small jacket she is sewing now is for him.
Xie Pingsheng listened to Peggy calling that brat Xiaoxia, and then remembered Bai Yue calling him Xiaoxie, and felt his head hurt even more.
