"Master, this is not very simple. After all, Qingniu Mountain is also a barren mountain. I can just go to the county to apply for a title deed later, right?"
Dana Cui nodded, "Okay, just prepare a generous gift and go to the county government office."
Cui San immediately got some decent gifts and drove his carriage to the county government office.
Soon, Cui San knocked on the door of Master Mao You's house.
Mao You must be very polite to people who come to your door with generous gifts.
"Butler Cui is here. What advice do you have?"
"Master Mao, I would like to ask you for help with a small matter." As he spoke, Cui San took out a piece of paper from his sleeve and handed it forward.
"There is a Qingniu Mountain outside our village. My husband thought that since it is deserted, he would like to use it to plant some fruit trees. Therefore, he also wanted to apply for a land deed document from the county. This is a topographic map."
Mao Youji frowned and said, "Hey, Butler Cui, what do you say? Since it is an ownerless land, you can just farm it. If you need to apply for the land deed document, the court will collect taxes."
Cui San laughed and said, "If you pay taxes, you will pay taxes. Is my master still short of that little money? Isn't this just for the sake of stability?"
Mao You nodded slightly after hearing this, "That's right. After applying for the land deed document, you will feel at ease after all."
Seeing that Mao You agreed so happily, Cui San pointed to the two large wooden boxes in the yard and said, "I hope Master Mao will accept my little kindness."
"Steward Cui, please sit down for a moment, I will write you a letter."
Mao You walked into the study, picked up his pen and brushed it, and quickly wrote a letter.
"Steward Cui, take this letter from me to the countryside and ask them to send people to survey the boundary and report it."
Unexpectedly, things were so simple and easy. Cui San looked proud, took the letter, and went straight to Chen's hometown.
The office of Chen's hometown is a courtyard with only three main rooms. On weekdays, only Geng Sheng and two people work here.
Seeing Cui San coming, Geng Sheng hurriedly came out with Xiao Xiao, "Oh, isn't this Butler Cui?"
Cui San laughed and handed Mao You's letter over with a smile.
Geng Sheng took it in his hand and after reading it, he clasped his fists at Cui Sanyi and said, "Steward Cui, I have to report this to Mr. Xiangzheng. Please go back and wait for news. We will rush there as soon as possible."
Cui San nodded, "Okay, then I will prepare wine and food at home and wait for Xiangzheng to arrive."
After seeing off Cui San, Geng Sheng arranged the work at hand and hurriedly rode to Hetou Village to find Chen Xiaobei.
At this time, Chen Xiaobei had already led people down the mountain.
Just as he was about to wash his hands and eat, the village guard came with Geng Sheng.
Geng Sheng came forward and bowed politely to Chen Xiaobei, "I have met Lord Xiangzheng."
Chen Xiaobei smiled and waved his hand, "Okay, okay. If you're not an adult, just call me Chen Xiaobei."
"Sir, this is a handwritten letter written by Master Mao. Please read it."
Chen Xiaobei took Mao You's letter and almost laughed out loud after reading it.
What is ear piercing on a sedan chair?
Only then did Cui San think of going to the county government office to apply for a certificate.
If that's the case, then have fun with him.
"Okay, I know about this. You can take someone with you tomorrow. By the way, remember, you must let Dana Cui personally lead you around the top of the mountain. Carefully, he must personally lead you around."
The signature is for confirmation, do you understand?"
Geng Sheng was very surprised, "Sir, there is no need for him to do this in person."
Chen Xiaobei's eyes widened, "If something goes wrong, the county magistrate doesn't know anyone."
Geng Sheng agreed, turned around and left.
Cui Hongyu didn't understand when he saw him walking away, "Husband, why didn't you stop this and instead asked Geng Sheng to survey the border?"
Chen Xiaobei smiled slightly and said, "Let Dana Cui move around and climb mountains. It will help your health."
Cui Hongyu instantly understood what Chen Xiaobei meant and couldn't help laughing, "Husband, you are so bad."
Chen Xiaobei stared at Cui Hongyu and asked, "Really? Am I very bad?"
Of course Cui Hongyu understood the tone of the words, she blushed all of a sudden, quickly lowered her head and said, "Husband, I will help you serve the rice."
While eating lunch, Cui Hongyu asked again, "Husband, are you going to pick apples this afternoon?"
Chen Xiaobei smiled slightly and said, "I won't go in the afternoon. I picked enough to sell for three to five days."
"By the way. I have to go find Carpenter Zhang in the afternoon and ask him to finish the blackboard quickly."
Upon hearing this, Cui Hongyu suddenly came back to his senses.
"Yeah, we have to pick up Zi Yan tomorrow."
"So today I have to make the blackboard no matter what."
After lunch, Chen Xiaobei took a brief rest and then rushed to Carpenter Zhang's house.
Seeing Chen Xiaobei coming, Carpenter Zhang looked very excited, "Mr. Li, the blackboard has been done a long time ago, and I'm just waiting for you to come and accept it."
While talking, Carpenter Zhang asked Chen Xiaowen to help carry out a few wooden boards.
Chen Xiaobei felt happy when he saw this wooden board.
The height is just about my waist, which is just right. The board is very smooth and the edges are thoughtfully made.
Not bad, completely in line with my vision, perfect.
"Let's go, we will nail it this afternoon, and the husband will come tomorrow."
The three of them worked together to load the wooden boards onto the wheelbarrow. Chen Xiaowen pushed the wheelbarrow, and Carpenter Zhang took the hammer, nails and other items, and the three of them rushed to the school together.
When some enthusiastic villagers saw this scene and heard that they were going to school to nail blackboards, they spontaneously joined in.
When Chen Xiaobei and the others arrived at the school, seven or eight people were already behind them. Seeing this posture, Chen Xiaobei felt moved.
The villagers are not stubborn. As long as they give sincerely, they will definitely receive their enthusiastic rewards.
Everyone worked hard and quickly nailed the wooden planks. Then Cui Hongyu brought the ink, and the villagers worked together to spread the ink carefully bit by bit.
All done.
Chen Xiaobei stood in the middle of the classroom, looking at the big blackboard in front of him. He felt dazed for a moment, as if he had returned to his previous life.
In my previous life, there was a large blackboard like this in my classroom. Because I was short, I sat in the front row and was often called by the teacher to clean the blackboard.
Thinking about how he had to stand on tiptoes or even jump in order to erase the words at the top, Chen Xiaobei felt inexplicably sad.
That is a childhood that I can never go back to, and that is a world that I can never go back to.
Seeing him in a daze, Cui Hongyu stepped forward and touched his arm gently, "Husband, everyone has left, what are you still thinking about here?"
Chen Xiaobei hesitated twice and said perfunctorily, "Oh, I was wondering how our new house is being built. Let's go over and take a look."
Upon hearing this topic, before Cui Hongyu could say anything, Chen Qiaoer beside her jumped up with joy, "Okay, okay, let's go see the new house."
Just when Chen Xiaobei and the others were rushing to their new house, a homing pigeon circled and landed in Liu Rumei's yard.
Liu Ce stepped forward and took the small bamboo joint, took it apart and took a look. His expression immediately became solemn.
