Chen Xiaobei called Cui Hongyu and Chen Qiaoer over and asked them to come together for acceptance.
It can be seen that they really paid attention to this Lidong. All the details are perfect, even some inconspicuous corners are done neatly.
Cui Hongyu nodded repeatedly after reading it. She was very satisfied with everything.
Chen Xiaobei looked around. Now that the courtyard wall has been raised, the only thing that looks a little awkward is the gate.
"Brother Lidong, I want to tear down this gate and rebuild it again. Do you think that's okay?"
"Okay, that's easy to say. Let's start today and finish it in one day tomorrow."
"It's just that you have to find Carpenter Zhang to make two more doors."
Chen Xiaobei nodded, of course it was no problem. He had already had his bed made by carpenter Zhang, and he didn't mind adding two more doors.
After the discussion, just as Lidong was calling for the men to dismantle the gate, Chen Dayong came to Chen Xiaobei's side and said with a smile, "Captain, let's discuss something."
Seeing Chen Dayong smiling like this, Chen Xiaobei felt inexplicably that his anus was tightening, which might be bad.
Sure enough, before he could speak, Chen Dayong continued, "Captain, I also want to grow vegetables, please give me some seeds."
Holy shit, it’s actually like this.
Chen Xiaobei didn't expect that Lidong would leak this matter, but after thinking about it, it seemed that there was nothing wrong with telling it. After all, he didn't let others keep it secret.
But I'm afraid I really can't agree to Chen Dayong this time, because the seeds are really gone. Except for the ones I planted, the rest were given to Lidong.
"Brother Dayong, it's okay if you want to grow vegetables, but the seeds are gone. I'll buy some for you when I go to the county."
Chen Dayong nodded, reached out and took out five big boys from his arms, "Are these enough?"
"This is not enough. You can buy more with more money or less with less money. It's just that we are talking about the ugly things in front of us..." Chen Xiaobei knew that he could not just let the villagers see the benefits but also know the risks.
"The current price of green leafy vegetables is one penny per pound, but this is not a fixed figure. I don't know what the price will be when they are grown, so you have to be mentally prepared."
This was obviously beyond Chen Dayong's expectation. He was stunned for a moment, and finally grinned, "It's okay, it's okay. The more you earn, the more you earn. The less you earn, the less. Anyway, it's to subsidize the family."
It's much easier to handle now, since I have explained the risks clearly.
But what surprised Chen Xiaobei was that throughout the afternoon, three or four craftsmen found the opportunity to come over and expressed their desire to learn to grow vegetables from Chen Xiaobei.
Of course, the so-called learning to grow vegetables is just an excuse. The most important thing is to let Chen Xiaobei help with sales.
This was nothing to Chen Xiaobei. Anyway, he was driving two sheep and herding one sheep. He always had to go to the city to sell vegetables.
At dusk, there was a rapid sound of horse hooves, and He Laoqi came, and with him came Zhao Chunqiang, the township official.
As soon as he saw Chen Xiaobei, He Laoqi lightly punched him on the shoulder.
"Brother Xiaobei, your courtyard wall is very impressive."
This is a kind of intimacy, a kind of intimacy that comes from the heart. This action makes everyone envious.
Captain Xiaobei is so awesome that he can be considered a brother to the county's chief catcher.
Township official Zhao Chunqiang also took a step forward and raised his fist towards Chen Xiaobei, "Brother Chen, congratulations!"
Chen Xiaobei looked at him confused.
Seeing that he hadn't come back to his senses, He Laoqi next to him smiled and said, "Brother Xiaobei, from now on you will be the head of Hetou Village. The county magistrate has already registered it."
Zhao Chunqiang, who was standing next to him, also immediately added, "Yes, yes, if it hadn't been for He Baotou's strong recommendation, I really wouldn't have known that Hetou Village had such a political talent as Mr. Chen."
That wasn't enough, Zhao Chunqiang turned to the craftsmen in the yard and shouted loudly, "Everyone, listen, Chen Xiaobei will be the head of Hetou Village from now on."
The crowd at the scene cheered again.
Chen Xiaobei waved to everyone humbly, indicating that they should continue working, and then invited He Laoqi and Zhao Chunqiang to the west courtyard for tea.
Zhao Chunqiang took out the pen, ink, paper and inkstone from the bag he brought with him, and asked Chen Xiaobei to sign the relevant documents. After all the procedures were completed, he said seriously, "By the way, the donkey carts and cattle in the village will be yours from now on."
You manage it, I just said hello to Chen Ping, and I will temporarily keep it at his house. When your yard is tidied up, you can move here again."
Only then did Chen Xiaobei come to his senses. Yes, Dacang State had equipped each village with a donkey cart and an ox.
It's just that when Chen Anbang was the head of the village, Chen Xiaobei's family couldn't use the donkeys, carts and cattle.
Now that they all belong to me, it is an unexpected surprise.
"By the way, Brother Xiaobei, according to the laws of our Dacang Kingdom, you, the village chief and the village guard captain, cannot do it all by yourself."
This was beyond Chen Xiaobei's expectation. Since he couldn't shoulder the responsibility, let's let the captain of the village protection team go. But to be honest, Chen Xiaobei still liked the position of captain.
Of course, he also has a suitable candidate for captain, and that is Lidong.
Lidong can organize people to go out to do some work on weekdays, and has prestige among the villagers.
In fact, the most suitable captain for this team should be Dachun, but when he thought of Dachun, Chen Xiaobei felt sad again. Maybe he would be able to see him again in the near future.
After waiting for Zhao Chunqiang to arrange everything, He Laoqi slowly said, "Brother Xiaobei, Cui Banxian's matter has been concluded. The matter is more serious than you thought."
"He has always been thinking about Cui Fugui's family property in his village. Yes, he is Cui Hongyu's father."
"He designed a big trap. First, he encouraged Chen Anbang to let his grandson Chen Ping marry Cui Hongyu, seize the Cui family's property, and then sell Cui Hongyu to the Baihua Building in the city."
"And he will try every means to defraud the money into his hands in the name of helping the Chen family resolve the disaster."
"By the way, Cui Hongyu's previous men were also killed by him, overtly and covertly."
"They still wanted to harm you, but they didn't expect that you successfully resolved the crisis, which caused the two of them to start fighting among themselves. He acted cruelly and let a snake bite Chen Anbang to death."
After hearing these words, Chen Xiaobei felt a cold sweat break out down his spine.
If you put these snakes at the door of your courtyard, how can you survive?
"Have you asked clearly about the snake? Does he still have it at home?"
He Laoqi nodded, "That's why I came here. He said that there is a tank behind his house, and there are green bamboo snakes in the tank."
"He spent a lot of money to buy this snake from a wandering monk, which shows that he started planning this conspiracy a long time ago."
Yes, in order to achieve his goal, he did not hesitate to take human life. This Cui Banxian is really hateful.
No, it is not just hateful, it is not an exaggeration to say that such a person should be cut into pieces by a thousand cuts.
