Poor Family: I reached the top by marrying a wife

"This……"

Zhou Laowu and his companions hesitated when they heard the county magistrate's words.

They all looked at Jiang Chen.

When they saw Jiang Chen nod, they left.

After Zhou Laowu and his companions left, Xue Linglong was taken away by Mr. Xue Sanye with a reluctant look on her face.

In the yard, Jiang Chen and the county magistrate were the only ones left for a while.

"Jiang Chen, I came to see you today, you should know the reason, right?"

After everyone left, the county magistrate looked at Jiang Chen with a faint smile.

"Uncle, I know."

Jiang Chen nodded, then smiled bitterly and said, "I never thought that this thing I accidentally made would have such serious consequences..."

"This... I don't know whether it is a blessing or a curse!"

"Haha, nephew, if an ordinary person made this thing, it might bring disaster, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that his family would be destroyed!"

"But you are different!" The county magistrate smiled faintly and walked towards Jiang Chen.

"My dear nephew, to be honest with you, this thing can bring huge profits. I will even rely on it in the future!"

"So... don't worry, everything will be fine with me here!"

"Second Uncle, this... is true!?" Jiang Chen was pleasantly surprised.

This time, Jiang Chen was truly surprised.

He was worried all night last night, and today... he can finally rest in peace!

"Haha, of course it's true!"

"Don't worry, nephew. Nothing will happen as long as I'm here!"

"But you must make the longevity peach within three months."

"At the same time, make more of this honeycomb charcoal. Three months later, you and I will go to the capital together, and I will take you to meet a noble man!"

"Then our good days will come!"

"By the way, since this business is a partnership between you and me, I have to invest some money as well."

As the county magistrate spoke, he picked up the small box he had brought with him.

……

"Uncle, this is not necessary, right?"

"I..." Jiang Chen hurriedly refused.

But the county magistrate opened the box and handed it to Jiang Chen.

But when Jiang Chen saw what was in the box, he was completely stunned!

"This...this is..."

Looking at the white silver, Jiang Chen was extremely shocked!

This must be at least one thousand taels! ?

"Nephew Jiang, here is one thousand taels. You can use it first. When we return to the capital and decide to start large-scale production, I will give you another sum of money!"

The county magistrate said this with a smile on his face.

"Uncle, I...I..."

"If you really think of me as your second uncle, just take it."

Jiang Chen still wanted to refuse.

But he was blocked by the county magistrate's words.

Jiang Chen had no choice but to accept the box.

Seeing this, the county magistrate nodded with satisfaction.

"My dear nephew, remember this: from now on, no one in Jinchuan County can bully you!"

"You...are my nephew!"

The county magistrate grabbed Jiang Chen's shoulders and spoke with a firm face.

When Jiang Chen heard what the county magistrate said, he also showed excitement.

After the two of them talked for a while, the county magistrate opened the door and went out.

Xue Linglong, who had been waiting at the door for a long time, rushed in immediately.

"Jiang Chen, teach me! Quickly!"

Xue Linglong held the Rubik's Cube and looked at Jiang Chen with excitement.

Seeing this, Jiang Chen could only teach Xue Linglong a few simple formulas.

Xue Linglong tried it and found it really worked, she was overjoyed!

“Hahaha! That’s amazing!”

"Jiang Chen, you are so amazing!"

If the county magistrate hadn't been watching outside the door, Jiang Chen estimated that... Xue Linglong would have hugged Jiang Chen and kissed him.

Only after the county magistrate and his men left did Jiang Chen come to his senses.

Looking at the one thousand taels of silver in his hand, Jiang Chen felt mixed emotions.

……

He originally just wanted to be a small landlord and live a life of wealth and luxury.

But now it seems... he is still involved in the struggle between major forces!

I don’t know if he can survive in the struggle between these major forces.

"Brother Jiang, are you okay?"

At this time, Zhou Si came to Jiang Chen.

When Jiang Chen saw Zhou Si, his eyes suddenly froze!

"Fourth brother, I'm fine, but you came at the right time. I have something for you to do!"

"Ok?"

Zhou Si heard this and looked at Jiang Chen with a puzzled look on his face.

On the other side, on the way back to the county town, Xue Linglong was riding on a horse, constantly looking at the Linglongzi in her hand.

The county magistrate saw this and said with a smile, "Linglong, where did you get that thing in your hand?"

"Hmm? Are you talking about Linglongzi?"

Xue Linglong asked subconsciously.

"Linglongzi? What a nice name!" The smile on the county magistrate's face deepened.

"Of course it's a good name!"

"This is a gift from Jiang Chen to me. It's really fun!"

Xue Linglong held the Linglongzi in her hand and said with a proud look on her face.

But at this time, Mr. Xue was already sweating profusely.

He actually didn't know that Jiang Chen and Xue Linglong had a special relationship.

If his uncle gets angry...

Looking at the calm face of the county magistrate, Mr. Xue San was extremely worried.

The county magistrate looked very strange at this moment.

That peaceful look...

But at this time, the county magistrate suddenly called him.

"The third child."

"Second uncle!"

Mr. Xue San replied hurriedly.

"Third brother, you must take Jiang Chen's affairs very seriously. I won't allow anything to happen to him. You must protect him!"

"Do you know!?" the county magistrate said in a deep voice.

"Yes! Second uncle!"

When Mr. Xue heard what the county magistrate said, he spoke respectfully.

……

On the other side, after seeing off Zhou Si, Jiang Chen brought Zhou Laowu and Zhou Laosan to the location where the house was to be built.

"Jiang Chen?"

When the villagers saw Jiang Chen, they all stopped what they were doing and looked over.

"My brothers and uncles, I am here today to tell you something!"

"From now on, we won't have to build houses anymore!"

Jiang Chen looked at everyone and spoke loudly.

"What!? No more building a house!"

"This... How can this be possible? If we don't build a house, what are we going to do?!"

"Yes, if we don't build a house, what will we...what will we eat?"

The villagers were all dumbfounded!

"Jiang Chen, you...did something happen to you?"

The old village chief Zhou Bo came to Jiang Chen worriedly.

"Uncle Zhou, I'm fine."

Jiang Chen smiled faintly, then looked at the villagers and said, "Everyone listen to me!"

"I don't let you guys build houses because there are more important things for you guys to do!"

"From now on, I, Jiang Chen, will take care of everyone's three meals a day, and each person will be paid five cents a day!"

"hiss!?"

When everyone heard Jiang Chen's words, they all took a deep breath!

Three meals a day, five cents a day! ?

Are they dreaming?!

And just when the villagers were shocked!

Jiang Chen said: "From today on, those between the ages of fifteen and thirty will follow Zhou Laowu and start training to form a night patrol team!"

"Your future mission is to train like a soldier and protect the village!"

"As for those who are over 30 years old, they will learn ironwork from Zhou Lao San or carpentry from Zhou Lao Si!"

"Before the New Year, I want all the women in the village to have access to spinning wheels and be able to work!"

"boom!"

Jiang Chen's words were like a bolt from the blue, leaving all the villagers stunned!

This...if Jiang Chen said so, then wouldn't everyone in their village soon have work to do and food to eat! ?

This...isn't this a fairy-tale day!?
