Although Liu Rumei was surprised and surprised, she didn't think too deeply about it.
Liu Ce, the steward behind him, was a little unsure. After all, in his opinion, Chen Xiaobei's attitude seemed to be less respectful to Liu Rumei.
"Master Chen is so prosperous that he built the walls of this courtyard so high in one go."
When he heard the other party's sarcasm, Chen Xiaobei became a little angry, "Miss Liu, please come back if you have nothing important to do!"
Hearing these words, Chen Anbang was shocked and his jaw almost dropped.
This is Liu Rumei, the youngest daughter of the famous Lord Protector Liu Xiangnan.
It is said that Liu Xiangnan's status is so extraordinary that even the current emperor would give him a thumbs up when he saw him.
His daughter Liu Rumei is also a god-like existence to ordinary people like them.
But seeing Chen Xiaobei's cold attitude, he actually issued an eviction order without saying a few words.
You read that right! Is this Chen Xiaobei crazy?
What surprised Chen Anbang even more was that Liu Rumei accompanied him with a smile, "Mr. Chen, can you speak further?"
To be honest, Chen Xiaobei at this time really didn't want to say a few more words to the other party, but at this moment, Cui Hongyu walked out quickly.
"Husband, everyone here is a guest, why don't you invite Miss Liu into your house and sit down?"
Chen Xiaobei's face turned tender for a moment and he glanced at Cui Hongyu sweetly.
Then he turned his head and made a gesture of invitation to Liu Rumei.
Seeing this scene, Chen Anbang was so angry that he stamped his feet! This is his granddaughter-in-law.
After cursing secretly, he left angrily.
Turning around and walking back, he thought to himself, "Cui Banxian, Cui Banxian, if you do it again this time, if it doesn't work out, don't blame me for being ruthless."
To his surprise, Cui Banxian appeared at his door.
I saw no one around.
Cui Banxian quickly took off the leather bag he carried with him.
He opened the stopper of the bag and poured it into Chen Anbang's door a few times.
Soon, several small emerald green snakes swam into Chen Anbang's gate.
Cui Banxian sneered a few times, turned around and left quickly.
Chen Anbang, who had no idea, came back with a lot of worries.
As soon as I stepped through the door, I felt a pain in my ankle, as if I had been stung by something.
Chen Anbang looked down and saw a small emerald green snake, holding its head high and speaking to him.
Oops.
Chen Anbang secretly thought something was wrong and shouted loudly into the yard, "Old lady, I've been bitten by a snake."
As soon as he shouted out one sentence, his eyes went dark and he fell to the ground with a thud.
Yang, who came after hearing the news, saw that Chen Anbang had fallen.
She stepped forward to help her, but as soon as she put her hand on Chen Anbang's body, a green figure appeared and quickly pecked her hand.
After a few snaps of his fingers, Yang fell to the ground with a thud and soon became silent.
At this time, Chen Dachun's home, no, now it should be said that Chen Xiaobei's home is in the west courtyard.
The atmosphere was a bit stagnant.
"Mr. Chen, I won't hide it from you. There are valuables needed by the royal family on Qingniu Mountain. I would like to ask you to help guard Qingniu Mountain. If you encounter anyone entering the mountain, can you go and ask or send someone to inform you?"
Let’s talk.”
Regarding Liu Rumei's proposal, Chen Xiaobei said nothing.
This is like seeing a ghost, why is everyone focusing on Qingniu Mountain?
He also knew that several groups of people were eyeing this place, which was not a good thing.
The three parties definitely represent different interests. If a fight breaks out, Hetou Village will inevitably be affected.
So the best way to protect yourself is not to offend anyone.
However, no one is allowed to offend, which means that no matter who comes over, they have to do it and help.
Otherwise, if you want to stay out of the matter, everyone will be offended. If that happens, then the life of Hetou Village will be impossible.
"Miss Liu will tell you the truth. There are some ancient sayings in our Hetou village that we cannot go up the mountain beyond the mountain temple. Even where we found Brother Liu, we are not familiar with it further up."
"The other thing is that we don't go up the mountain at night. If some villagers hadn't been poisoned and passed out on the mountain in order to save Brother Liu, we would never have risked going to the mountain to search."
"So, you asked us to help you keep a lookout to see who is entering the mountain. I can only set up a checkpoint at the entrance of our village and interrogate you. But Qingniu Mountain is so big, there is more than one way into the mountain.
, if they want to enter from other places, there is nothing I can do."
What Chen Xiaobei said is true and false.
However, it is normal to bring in private goods, after all, he is hiding his selfish motives.
"Of course, Miss Liu, we have something to say beforehand. The villagers are the masters of digging in the soil, and the work in the fields cannot be delayed for a day."
Of course Liu Rumei understood what Chen Xiaobei meant, which was that he wanted money.
You cannot delay the work in the fields, but you can delay it as long as you give money.
If the money is given, then this land may not be cultivated at all.
"Okay, I like how refreshing Mr. Chen is. Each person earns five sons per day."
"Tell me how many people you can arrange for me."
Damn it, Chen Xiaobei was shocked when he heard this.
As expected, he is arrogant and rich, and he takes care of everything immediately.
But having said that, after careful calculation, in fact, each person has five taels per day, which is not only one tael per day for 200 people, but more than 300 taels of silver per year.
For Liu Rumei, who had rewarded Chen Dachun with a thousand taels of silver, this was just a drizzle of water.
"Okay, then I will try my best to arrange as much for you as possible."
At this time, Liu Rumei leaned forward and said with a smile, "If you can arrange for someone to go to the mountain temple to walk up every day, I can add ten more."
Ten sons.
Chen Xiaobei was even more shocked. What shocked him was not Liu Rumei's bid.
But he knew that based on this, there must be a huge secret on Qingniu Mountain.
Yes, a secret unknown to yourself.
And this secret must also be a secret that other groups want to know.
So I'm afraid it's about making money or spending money.
Thinking of this, he waved his hand and said, "No, no, let's forget it. We'd better abide by the ancient precepts."
Although Chen Xiaobei said so, Liu Rumei saw the clues.
She knew that money could make the world go round, and sooner or later Chen Xiaobei would accept his terms.
At this moment, a heartbreaking cry suddenly echoed through Hetou Village.
Chen Xiaobei's heart tightened when he heard this voice.
With little effort, Chen Xiaowen hurried over and said, "Brother Xiaobei, go and have a look. The mayor is dead, and Chen Ping is crying there."
Chen Xiaobei stood up and nodded to Liu Rumei to apologize, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry."
Watching Chen Xiaobei go out, Liu Rumei thought for a moment, then made a gesture to Liu Ce, and the two quietly followed the people of Hetou Village to the scene of the accident.
At this time, Chen Anbang's doorstep had been surrounded by three floors inside and three floors outside.
Seeing Chen Xiaobei coming, everyone subconsciously moved aside to make way for him.
Seeing this scene, Liu Rumei was secretly shocked. This made Chen Xiaobei look very prestigious in Hetou Village.
