Plane Trading: A Peasant Girl Escapes from Famine and Becomes Rich Enough of a Nation

Having made the decision, they decided not to delay any longer. It was getting late, so they hurriedly drove the carriage to Qinghe Town.

Yang Dachun and Su Xiaofang were also dragged by Su Qiuyi, and the group of eight people left the village.

The Yang family couldn't say anything when they saw this, because the younger brother was now capable and didn't spend the Yang family's money. They couldn't control where the eldest wife's four members went.

However, on the way out of the village, many villagers were afraid that they would just run away and ignore them, so they frequently came forward to ask questions.

Su Laosan, who was driving, explained everything to Yang Dachun along the way, and their mouths were dry when they left the village.

The eight people arrived at Qinghe Town. The streets of Qinghe Town still looked deserted, but fortunately there were still some people around.

Some inns in the town are also open.

They settled down successfully.

Early the next morning, the group had a simple breakfast at the inn and returned to the village.

Su Qiuyi followed her father and took the former village head to the yamen next to the garrison to get the appointment documents. After everything was done, Su Qiuyi talked to her father about buying a residential plot.

It went quite smoothly. Although it cost a lot of money, I managed to buy the residential land at the west entrance of Shimudi Village.

Su Qiuyi watched the officials write the land deed for them, stamp it, and approve the documents for building the residential land, and suddenly an idea came to his mind.

She tugged at her father, and the two walked a little further away before Su Qiuyi whispered, "Dad, can we buy the mountain behind it? The mountain is barren, so it should be cheaper... Mainly, I want to raise chickens!"

He emphasized a little on the word "raising chickens". How could Su Laosan not understand?

That girl loves to eat chicken the most. She has been getting a lot of goodies along the way, so she must have owed a lot. If she buys the wasteland in the back mountain and raises chickens herself...

He nodded quickly.

The money was given to his daughter by that man, and there was nothing wrong with them working to reclaim the land and raise chickens to provide for that man.

He turned around and went to the officials to present his ideas.

The back mountain is not big, but it is not small either. There are also wild beasts in it...

The largest ferocious beast mentioned here is the wild boar, because the mountain behind is called a mountain but it is not actually very high.

When Su Laosan mentioned that his family wanted to buy the back mountain, he actually alarmed the garrison commander.

The minor official was unable to make the decision, so he immediately asked the yamen runners to go and invite Liu Zhenshou over.

Seeing the garrison commander, the village chief took the lead and knelt down with his luggage, "I greet the garrison commander!"

It was the first time that Su Laosan and his daughter met an official of such high status, and they quickly knelt down to greet him.

"Get up and talk!" Liu Zhenshou was breathing heavily and was a little tired from walking. He was helped in by his servants and quickly sat at the top of the table.

The three of them got up. When Su Qiuyi heard the voice, he already felt that the governor should be a fat man.

She could easily guess what he was talking about since he was breathing so heavily.

But when I looked up, I was still surprised.

Judging from a quick glance, this town guard must weigh more than 300 pounds, right?

The neck was so pressed down by the big face that it was invisible.

"Why do you need me here? Didn't I tell you? You can make all the decisions on your own! If you can't even do this, why are you the deputy commander? Go home and farm as soon as possible!"

The fat commander sat down and began to lecture the official who had just handled the paperwork for them.

Only then did Su Qiuyi realize that he was actually the deputy garrison commander.

"Sir Liu, the truth is, Suri is planning to buy the mountain behind Houshan Village. It's a serious matter and I can't make the decision on my own, so I asked you to come!" The deputy garrison commander stepped forward tremblingly and bowed his head.

Cursing in my heart.

What kind of deputy governor am I? I don't even have a letter of appointment.

It was just that the fat man Liu Zhenshou was getting fatter and fatter and he couldn't deal with all these trivial matters all day, so he captured a good scholar like himself and forced him to do hard labor.

With a monthly payment of two taels of silver, he got up earlier than the chickens and went to bed later than the dogs. All trivial matters had to be handled by him as the (deputy) garrison commander, and he had to report to the fat man when he was not tired.

"The mountain in Houshan Village?" Liu Zhenshou frowned and thought for a while, but he couldn't remember what the mountain in Houshan Village looked like.

As the town commander, he had never gone down to investigate the villages belonging to Qinghe Town.

How can you know what kind of mountain is behind which village?

But he didn't need to know that Deputy Town Commander Cao Lei had already begun to introduce himself in a servile manner.

"Sir, the mountain behind Houshan Village is not too big. It only covers 527 acres, and it is all wasteland with small stones. The price we set is two taels of silver per acre. I can't make the decision, so I will directly issue the land deed to Su Lizheng, so I asked you to come..."

Fatty Liu cleared his throat and the servant quickly brought him a cup of warm tea.

He drank his tea, then looked up at the three people who had been standing silently, and asked, "What are you going to do with that mountain? You can't even grow crops there!"

Su Qiuyi had already told her father about her plan, so she was not worried at all at the moment. She leisurely glanced at the fat man at the top and studied something.

Su Lao San clasped his fists and replied, "Your Excellency, I want to plant fruit trees and raise some chickens in the orchard. Fruit trees are easier to grow than crops, so the soil in the back mountain can be used for planting!"

Liu Zhenshou thought for a long time and finally nodded.

"Okay! Sell it! Give them the title deed!"

Cao Lei nodded quickly.

Without waiting for others to say anything, Liu Zhenshou had his servants help him out.

He was still complaining, "Didn't Madam say we were going to have mutton today? Why haven't you responded yet? I'm starving!"

The servant didn't dare to speak and carefully helped him walk out.

But in fact, he had just finished eating and he got hungry too quickly.

The ten-acre residential land was connected to the back mountain, and the entire area extending from the west entrance of the village to the back mountain was bought by Su Qiuyi and his daughter.

Although it cost a lot, he became the largest landlord in Houshan Village and even Qinghe Town.

The father and daughter were so happy that they didn't even care about the money they had to pay as they held the land deed.

But the cloudy old eyes of Qianli Zheng, who was following behind the two of them, were full of shock.

He knew that the third son of the Su family had become rich, but he didn't expect him to be so rich that he actually bought the back mountain that his ancestors had lived on for generations but had never been able to shake.

At this moment, he was extremely grateful. Although he had been plotting against them in his mind, he had never actually done anything to harm them.

After surviving the disaster, he breathed a sigh of relief and completely gave up the idea of ​​harming others.

The three of them went straight back to the village; there was no way they could keep the news secret.

Once the news got out, the entire Houshan Village was in an uproar.

Even Su Xiaofang was excited.

She already knew that her niece was capable, but she never expected that she would be so capable that she could buy the entire back mountain.

She couldn't believe it. She couldn't believe that her brother could be where he is today, and couldn't help but burst into tears.

Su Qiuyi and his two daughters had no time to care about how excited the villagers were. She was busy renting a house in Qinghe Town and building a house in Houshan Village. Su Laosan was also running around for the villagers all day long.

Because relief supplies were delivered one after another, Su Laosan, as the village head, really didn't even have time to drink a sip of water. Fortunately, Qin Kui came to help spontaneously every day.
