Xiao Jingyi looked at Gu Xue, motionless.

Gu Xue didn't see him. After setting the backyard on fire, she came to the inn lobby.

In the grid on the counter, I found another few hundred taels of silver.

The villagers tied up the innkeeper, waiter and others.

He also went to the kitchen and brought out all the grain and vegetables.

In front of the villagers, Gu Xue equally distributed the several hundred taels of silver in the counter to more than a dozen households.

The village chief also distributed the food he found.

"Village chief, what should we do with these kidnappers?"

"I don't know how many children have been harmed. Do you want to kill them?"

The two village chiefs discussed it and decided to tie the man to the gate of the county government office.

The guard looked at all this and said to Xiao Jingyi: "Your Majesty."

Xiao Jingyi looked away: "Since he is a kidnapper, he should naturally end up like this."

Then he glanced at Gu Xue, raised the corners of his lips slightly, pinched the horse's belly, and galloped away.

The guards were also busy following.

Gu Xue glanced at the people passing by on horseback and didn't pay attention.

The villagers listened to Gu Xue's words and were very happy not only to find Gu Dabiao, but also to receive money and food.

Gu Dabiao was still sobbing and crying.

Gu Daxing patted him on the shoulder, and Mrs. Qi helped wipe away his tears, also crying with joy.

Gu Jianghai has lost and found many things, and survived after disasters.

Gu Xue took one last look at the burning inn and drove away.

The villagers also followed, with three kidnappers tied next to them.

Just when Guaizi was exhausted and collapsed, Gu Xue and the others finally entered the city.

When they arrived at Yingzhou, the capital city, everyone went straight to the Yamen.

After listening to Gu Xue's words, several men in the village threw the kidnappers at the yamen gate and ran away.

The yamen officer at the door noticed the movement, walked out, and saw three people on the ground.

They were tied with ropes and had wooden tags hanging around their necks with the words "I am a kidnapper" on them.

The yamen servant said hello, and a few more people rushed out and grabbed the kidnapper inside.

The villagers of Stone Village who were peeking not far away withdrew their gaze and left.

On another street, Gu Xue saw people coming and knew that the matter was done.

"Let's go out of Fucheng and arrive at Xinghua County soon.

You can settle down in Xinghua County. "

When the villagers heard this, they all smiled.

The long motorcade sets off again.

After leaving Fucheng, the villagers couldn't help but enjoy themselves.

"Tell me, what kind of village will we settle in?"

"Do you want to build a thatched house or an adobe house?"

"No matter what, it will have to be a brick house."

"My family wants to raise a lot of chickens and a cow."

"I want to go to the town to find a job and earn more money."

"I want to learn a trade and be an apprentice first."

"I want to marry a wife, what do you think of the girls here?"

"Hahaha, prepare the money for the betrothal gift first. I don't know if they will take a fancy to us outsiders."

"What's wrong with outsiders? If you have the skills, just have enough to eat. A hero doesn't care where he comes from."

Gu Xue turned a deaf ear to the voice in her ears, but she felt it was quite real.

It feels like what the villagers have been thinking about has finally come to fruition.

Yes, escaping on the road is like duckweed, which makes people not feel at ease.

Finally, they no longer have to run around. They can work at sunrise and rest at sunset every day. In their eyes, this is real life.

Gu Xue looked at the sun in front of her, the corners of her mouth raised.

An hour later, the villagers arrived at the Xinghua County government office.

Because Xiao Jingyi had explained before that the county magistrate had known that someone would come to settle here.

Mr. Xie introduced to the villagers that Daling Village under Xiangshan Town can now allow them to settle.

“There are more than 300 people in Daling Village in total, and with the addition of more than 100 of you, there will be more than 500 people in the future.

You can buy land and fields, the upper-grade fields cost 10 taels of silver per acre, the medium-grade fields cost 6 taels, and the low-grade fields cost 2 taels..."

Master Xie explained for a long time, and the villagers also had a lively discussion. They are all thinking about what fields to buy and where to buy them.

Finally, Master Xie went through the settlement procedures for Gu Xue and his party.

Then ask the yamen to take them to the village. For details about purchasing land, you can contact the head of Daling Village for details.

So, the convoy set off on the road to Daling Village.

Lin Buyan and the others said goodbye to Gu Xue in Fucheng.

At this time, the government servant who led them to Daling Village was riding Gu Chun's carriage and was very polite.

Because the county magistrate specifically told these people to be placed in a village, the master finally arranged for them to be sent to Daling Village.

Generally, immigrants who settle down will be dispersed to different villages for the sake of public security.

As a result, this time, a special explanation was given and a special arrangement was made for a visit to a village.

Xinghua County is next to Xiangshan Town, so Daling Village is very close to the county seat and town, and can be reached in about half an hour's walk.

It's so convenient, these people are either just lucky or have a good background.

The latter was the most likely, so he was happy to make friends with this group of people.

The yamen servant and Gu Chun inquired about their affairs, and Gu Chun explained what he could tell, but did not reveal what was inconvenient to tell.

Soon, the group arrived at Daling Village.

At the entrance of Daling Village, a group of women were chatting under a big tree.

Seeing so many carriages at once, they were a little confused when they entered their village.

How is this going?

People in Daling Village were shocked when they heard that they were here to settle down.

The most gossipy woman had already run away to inform the village chief.

The woman ran all the way to the village chief's yard and said hurriedly: "Village Chief, many people have come to our village to settle down. They have already arrived."

A tall and thin old man with dark skin came out of the house and asked the woman:

"Afraid, what's going on?"

"Village chief, there are a lot of people, hundreds of people, pulling carriages and coming to our village to settle down, and there are also government servants following them."

The village chief heard this and hurried out of the yard.

I saw a car driving towards me. After knowing about it, many villagers from Daling Village followed me to watch the excitement.

As they approached, the government servant got off the carriage and spoke first: "Village Chief Fu, these people are fleeing from the north.

The county magistrate has arranged to settle in your village. The household registration has been completed and people have brought it to you. You can arrange it for them. "

Fu Daniu nodded respectfully: "Thank you for your hard work, I don't know where they came from. How did they all come to our village?"

The yamen officer became serious: "Don't ask what you shouldn't ask. Could it be that you are dissatisfied with my Lord's decision?"

Fu Daniu quickly smiled and coaxed the yamen servant away.

When Gu Xue and others saw that the government officials had left, they negotiated with Village Chief Fu.

"Mr. Fu, do you know if the house here is built on land or something?" Shi Xiucai stepped forward and asked.

Village Chief Fu looked around and finally said: "You can choose the place yourself. The government will measure it and buy the land to build a house, or you can buy a ready-made house."

"What happened to the ready-made ones?" Gu Xue asked.

Village Chief Fu: "Our place is close to the county seat. In the past, many houses were built in the village for rent by merchants from the south.

There is a new road behind, and if merchants don't go here, the house will be abandoned. "
