After fleeing famine, I have thousands of acres of fertile land

Seeing that the number of people under my command is decreasing, I feel very angry.

"Brother, what should we do with the fourth brother? It's not a good idea to block the door every day."

Yang Fan was unwilling to hear this, "Old Third, that's not what I meant. Didn't the people in the government leave? I think your people are not capable enough."

After hearing this, the third brother was so angry that he pushed Yang Fan and sparks flew between them.

"Stop it, both of you. You are brothers, don't hurt the harmony." The boss acted as a peacemaker.

Yang Fan looked at the eldest brother aggrievedly, "Brother, it was the third brother who asked for it first."

The third and fourth brothers have always been at odds with each other, and the boss also intends to keep them at odds so that he can control the village.

"Old Four, please take the trouble to make this trip and see if Master Qian can help you sort this out."

Yang Fan was happy to hear this, thinking that his elder brother still valued him.

The next morning, Yang Fan appeared at Master Qian's house, carrying a load of vegetables.

After listening to the butler's report, Master Qian asked someone to bring him over.

"Fourth Master, I came here today for something. I kept my promise and took my people away."

Yang Fan smiled and chatted with them.

"Sir, we are not here for this matter. We are here to ask you to come and help again. The people in the guard post seem to be crazy. They take turns to attack the village all day long."

Master Qian was not at all guilty. "I can't help you with this. I can still have a say in the county government office. But I definitely can't help you in the garrison. We just had a falling out."

Yang Fan knew that it was a bit too much to ask, but for the sake of the village, he still wanted to try his best.

"Sir, we won't let you help in vain. We will show our appreciation afterwards." Yang Fan stretched out his hand and gestured a number.

Lord Qian's attitude changed. "I am also a warm-hearted person, but I can't be the boss of the garrison. I can only help to make connections."

Yang Fan was overjoyed. This was a better result than he had expected.

Master Qian looked at his reaction and continued, "We just had a falling out. There's no reason to go up the mountain."

Yang Fan took out a few silver bills from his arms and placed them on Master Qian's desk.

"Please take care of it, sir."

Master Qian glanced at the amount and didn't put on airs.

"Let me help you. I want to ask you something. Do you have any expression towards Wei?"

"Sir, don't worry, I will definitely satisfy the masters in the guard station."

Master Qian stroked his beard and agreed to give the results in two days.

Yang Fan left Qian's house carrying his empty load.

Ye Qing and Ye Dalang came to the city to get medicine. They saw a figure flash by and thought that the person looked strange as he was wrapped tightly all over.

Master Qian ordered two hundred kilograms of good wine from Ye Qing's winery and had it delivered to the garrison on the mountain.

When he arrived at the gate of the guard post, he was stopped.

"Master Qian, what wind brings you here? Our temple is small and we cannot afford a big Buddha like you."

Master Qian was not angry either, he just smiled apologetically.

"I regretted it as soon as I got to the foot of the mountain. I was impatient that day and said those words. I came here today to apologize to Lord Li."

The people in the garrison made a few more sarcastic remarks before letting him in.

The bandits who were stalking from a distance saw this scene and hurried back to report.

Master Qian stayed for an hour and left with a smile on his face.

Yang Fan has been sending people to keep an eye on the guard post and Master Qian, and he knows exactly what Master Qian has done in the past two days.

When I heard that Master Qian left with a smile on his face, I knew this was going to happen.

Moreover, the garrison was resting these two days and just surrounded the mountain stronghold without taking any action.

Yang Fan waited anxiously for two days, and at the agreed time, he came to Qian's house with the food.

"Sir, has the guard station given any explanation?"

Master Qian held the tea in his hand without saying anything, just looking at the paintings on the wall.

Yang Fan took out a silver note and put it on the table.

Master Qian finally seemed to react, "The people in the guard post said they want to talk to you in person. See you tonight in the private room of Fu'an Pavilion."

Yang Fan breathed a sigh of relief, as this was also his plan.

As long as we can establish good relations with the garrison, the village can be stable for several years.

Master Qian reminded him, "Don't go there at night. You've been coming here so frequently these past few days. Don't let anyone with ulterior motives find out anything."

Yang Fan thought about it and it was true. He appeared too frequently during this period.

After going out, they went straight to the village. The boss made the decision and asked the third brother to meet the people from the garrison.

The third in command first asked someone to book a private room. He found three people and booked three rooms respectively. They would choose one when the time came.

This is also to prevent the people in the garrison from taking people to catch them.

The third in command led his men down the mountain at noon, walked around Fu'an Pavilion, and even found a retreat route.

At the agreed time, he went to Fu'an Pavilion with a confidant, and the others hid around him so they could support him if anything happened.

Lao Fan brought some people to the garrison. Let's hear what they have to say first.

The Third In Command met Lord Li. When he saw Old Fan, he was stunned for a moment, then he greeted him warmly.

"My lord, what is your name?"

"Just call me Lao Fan, who are you?"

After the third in command revealed his identity, Lao Fan's attitude became much more enthusiastic.

"Master Fan, the brothers in the garrison have worked hard. We are willing to give them some extra money for tea and water."

"It's not hard. This is the duty of our garrison. The court asked us to suppress the bandits and will reward us." Old Fan said this bluntly.

The third in command's expression changed, then he smiled again.

"My Lord, there may be some misunderstanding here. We are not bandits. We hid in the mountains during the war."

Lao Fan looked stunned. How could he make up a story like this?

"Really? Are the people who went to Kaoshan Village from your village?"

The Third Master had a miserable look on his face. "Master Fan, to be honest, we were just farming in the mountains. That bandit brought some people and robbed our land. We don't know what they did."

Old Fan looked as if he didn't believe it, but he didn't say anything and just listened to him.

The third in command was also a smart man. He took out the silver note he had prepared in advance and handed it over.

"These are to make amends to my brothers. Please accept them, sir."

Old Fan took the banknote, looked at it carefully, and put it in his arms with satisfaction.

"You are also the victims of this matter, but I believe it is useless. We must calm the anger of the people."

Lao Fan had an expression that said, "You know what I mean, we also have to report to the authorities."

The third in command cursed inwardly, saying that he had such a big appetite.

He took out a few silver bills and handed them over.

Lao Fan still put it in his arms without any hesitation, "We have been in the mountains for so many days, and it would be difficult to report without any gains. Besides, several guards are jointly handling the case, how can we convince others."

The third in command felt the pain in his heart. The first in command had given him 12,000 taels of silver notes, and he wanted to keep the rest secretly, so he had to continue to pay out the silver notes.

Old Fan felt the thickness of the silver bills in his arms, his heart was filled with joy, and he agreed reluctantly.

The two discussed the details of the play before leaving separately.
