On the wedding day, I was broken off, so I remarried his uncle

When the couple walked towards the county government office, Old Song and his men had been waiting for them in front of the government office for a while!

There's nothing we can do since the county magistrate had given the order early in the morning.

In the past, if someone came to the county government to handle land deed-related matters, they would be treated coldly and be delayed or evaded unless they spent some money to smooth over the relationship.

However, today was very different. When the officials in the county government heard that the visitor was Old Song from Songjia Village who came to submit the land contract, they handled the matter very quickly.

In less than a cup of tea, Old Song successfully obtained the deed for 30 acres of land! His speed and efficiency were astonishing.

He stuffed the land deed into his arms like a treasure, and when he followed the head of the village and the head of the Song clan out of the county government office, his mind was still blank.

It was not until the two men asked him if he wanted to go back that Old Song came to his senses!

He bared his missing front teeth and said cheerfully, "My daughter and son-in-law are coming here to meet me. I will have to wait a while."

"Well, you guys just wait here. I just need to go to the grocery store and I'll leave first."

"I'm sorry to bother you, please go and do your work first, head of the village! Thank you for taking the trip today, but you must come to my house for lunch!" Old Song invited.

The head of the village waved his hand nonchalantly and said, "Okay, don't spend any more money!" After that, he walked away with his hands behind his back.

Seeing the other party's refusal, Old Song did not insist. He weighed in his mind that it would be a bad idea to give these bean seeds to the headman. When the melons at home grew up, he could ask the headman to taste them.

Song Xile saw his father standing in front of the county government office from a distance. The couple quickened their pace to greet him, "Dad, have you finished the land deed?"

Old Song patted his chest and smiled so hard that his face was full of wrinkles!

"Okay, let's go back!"

The group left the city, and without waiting for Song Xile to ask for a car, Old Song took the initiative to hire one, which was rare for him.

After all, Patriarch Song is old, and it is not easy for Old Song to let people walk back. If it were a normal day, hiring a car would obviously be impossible!

With the help of a donkey cart, the journey that originally took more than an hour was more than twice as fast. The donkey cart stopped at the path leading to the village. After Old Song paid the fare, the group walked towards the village!

Suddenly, Song Xile stopped in her tracks. She saw a donkey cart parked in front of her house. She didn't know what her mother said to them, but the group drove away unwillingly.

What a coincidence, they met a few people coming back, and Song Xile glanced at that person.

From the uniform clothes these people were wearing, Song Xile was sure that these people were servants from someone's family. It seemed that they had received news about high-yield bean seeds and came here to inquire!

Sure enough, a villager saw Old Song coming back and hurriedly said to him, "Uncle, someone from your family just came. As soon as he entered the village, he asked us about the high-yield bean seeds. I think he came for this matter!"

The villager asked with some interest: "Uncle Song, do you still have such high-yield bean seeds at home?"

Without waiting for Old Song to answer, the Song clan leader said, "Okay, I'll call everyone to a meeting later to discuss this matter. If anyone comes to the village to inquire about it later, you can all just say you don't know!"

Seeing that the patriarch was speaking seriously, the villager just kept nodding.

The Song family was the only one living in their village.

The patriarch's words are absolute authority in the village. Even if he is really curious and wants to say something to everyone in a meeting, it does not prevent them from obeying what the patriarch says!

Old Song couldn't help but feel uneasy. It was only the first day and someone came to his house to inquire about his whereabouts. If it weren't for the protection of his clansmen, his family would be a big piece of fat meat. It would be easy for anyone to take action against them!

At this moment, he gradually came to his senses and couldn't help but feel fortunate that he listened to his daughter yesterday!

The head of the Song clan returned home with Old Song and brought up the issue of bean seed distribution with Old Song again!

"I think what Song Zhi said is right, 'It's not the lack of wealth that is worrying, but the inequality of wealth!' Your original intention was good, but it would not be good if you bring disaster upon yourself!"

"I thought that the land behind the mountain is already wasteland, so I could mobilize everyone to open up the wasteland next to your land and plant beans. This will make it easier to manage, and everyone will get a share of the harvest, so no one will be jealous of anyone else!"

As for the reclaimed land, it is easy to deal with. Our dynasty has a regulation that any reclaimed land does not need to pay taxes within three years.

We have all overcome difficulties together this year, and the land that is reclaimed later can be divided equally among households. Everyone has contributed to the reclamation, so this is fair!

"As for the pond you mentioned, and the reclamation of thirty acres of wasteland, don't worry, let's just follow the arrangements you made yesterday. Old Song, do you think this method is feasible?"

For Old Song, this actually made no difference. He had to give out the bean seeds anyway, and the method the patriarch mentioned could also prevent some potential crises. He pondered for a moment, then nodded in agreement!

"Okay then, this matter is settled. I'll go and inform everyone to hold a meeting after noon!" After saying that, he put his hands behind his back and walked away hurriedly!

After seeing off the Song clan leader, Old Song finally had time to ask his wife, "What did the person at the door just now do?"

Speaking of this, Yang was still a little worried. "What else can I do? I don't know where they got the news that the high-yield bean seeds came from our family, and they want to come to our house to buy them with a large sum of money!"

Song Xile asked curiously, "Mom, did they say how much they would pay for it?"

Yang pointed a finger.

Old Song exclaimed, "One hundred coins per pound?"

Yang shook her head. "One tael of silver per pound! They are willing to pay a hundred taels of silver for a bag of bean seeds!"

"Oh my god, are these people crazy? They are willing to spend so much money on bean seeds!"

Song Xile snorted coldly, "Dad, do you think these people are the kind of people who would do a losing business? Once these high-yield bean seeds are in the hands of those people, they will only use them to make ten times, or even a hundred times, the money for themselves!"

"Dad, now you should believe what I said yesterday. This high-yield bean seed can bring nearly twice the income to those large farmers just based on the yield, not to mention that they can sell this high-yield bean seed to nearby counties. Who wouldn't be tempted by such a temptation?"

Old Song nodded repeatedly. After hearing what his daughter said, he even felt a little fortunate that he had listened to his daughter's advice yesterday!

Seeing that his father no longer cared about selling the bean seeds, Song Xile suggested, "Dad, while our eldest brother is not back yet, let's go to the back mountain to confirm the location of the well!"

Old Song looked up at the sun and nodded, "Let's go."

Before leaving home today, he asked his two sons to go to Shijing Village to find someone to dig a well. Judging from his sons' pace, he estimated that the person would be back soon!

Thinking of this, he secretly thought that he had to determine the exact location of the well before his sons brought people back!
