Chapter 459: Prohibition on Buying a Mountain
The clerk smiled, and his smile showed understanding. He obviously knew that Uncle Qin had misunderstood, and he pointed to a small door and said, "It's in the small side yard over here. Follow me."
After saying that, he looked at the servant and was about to tell him to carry the sack when he saw Uncle Qin pull the sack's mouth with his left hand, lift it up with his breath, and with a push of his knee, the sack jumped onto his right shoulder. His shoulder moved, and after finding the right position, he said to the clerk, "Lead the way."
The clerk was a little surprised and couldn't help but said, "Brother Qin is very skilled."
Even though his right hand is disabled, he is still so powerful, no worse than those who practice martial arts.
Uncle Qin said, "We farmers can carry sacks at the age of eight. Otherwise, how can we help carry grain during the busy farming season?"
Ok?
Is Brother Qin implicitly calling him a waste?
Guan Shuli didn't care, smiled, and walked towards the small side courtyard.
The servant of the Guan family followed behind Uncle Qin, ready to help carry the sacks at any time.
Unfortunately, the servant was of no use, so Uncle Qin carried the things all the way to the small side courtyard.
There is a summer house without walls in the small side courtyard, and there are pots of peonies inside the house.
Uncle Qin sighed after seeing this: "Guan Shuli, your family is really rich."
This peony is taken care of even more carefully than Old Man Jiang, and he even set aside a summer house specifically for the peonies of this season.
The clerk said, "It's not that I'm rich, but in the Northeast, peonies are particularly difficult to grow. Even in the second half of March in the lunar calendar, during the cold and gloomy period before 15:30 and after 15:00, peonies must be moved indoors, otherwise once they get cold..."
Uncle Qin interrupted him hastily: "Guan Shuli, let's put the dirt pile on the plate first. If we continue talking, it will be dark."
The servant of the Guan family sensibly lit the five pine oil lamps on the lamppost.
Uncle Qin: "..."
Guan family Peony lives a better life than other people.
Bang, he put down the sack and said, "Let's get started."
"I added soil to the third pot of peony. It had too little soil and roots were already sticking out..."
"You don't need to add more soil to the first pot. This is enough soil. If you add more soil, the roots will be buried. Once you water too much, the accumulated water in the soil may cause root rot."
Uncle Qin touched the soil of the eight pots of peonies again, called the clerk, pointed at the second, fourth, fifth, sixth and eighth pots of peonies and said, "These pots have too much water. Don't water them recently. If you water them too much at this time of year, the peonies will die easily."
The clerk Guan wrote down everything and sighed, "Brother Qin is really a good teacher of flowers. He knows a lot. Did you study it specifically?"
Grandpa Qin and Qin Cunquan held their breath when they heard this and dared not speak.
Jiang Dalang looked at Uncle Qin, wanting to see what he would do.
If he collapses because of this, then all the suffering Uncle Qin has endured for the past twelve years will have been in vain.
"What do you mean by a flower mentor? You are too polite, Shuli Guan. My skill in growing peonies was taught to me by my master." Uncle Qin pointed at Jiang Dalang and said, "My master is his grandfather. His grandfather loved to grow peonies, but it's a pity that the old man's peonies were destroyed by me."
Upon hearing this, the clerk felt very sorry and could not help asking, "How come the peonies that I have raised for so many years are gone? Did they get infected with insects or diseases?"
Uncle Qin: "No, that's not the case. Bugs can't harm the old man's peonies. I committed a crime, and the old man sold the peonies to save me."
The clerk was stunned, and wanted to slap himself in the face. He stood up and bowed, saying, "I'm sorry, Brother Qin, I spoke too much."
Uncle Qin smiled: "Why, do you feel guilty?"
Guan Shuli nodded: "I am deeply ashamed."
Uncle Qin: "In that case, then you can help me do something to make up for it."
what?
Everyone in Baoxia's room was shocked. Grandpa Qin was so angry that he immediately took action and wanted to beat Uncle Qin.
Uncle Qin saw that the situation was not good, so he ran behind the clerk and said, "Dad, don't move. These are all precious peonies. If we break a pot, we will be finished!"
Uh, Grandpa Qin stopped in his tracks and pointed at him, saying, "I won't hit you now, but if you dare to talk nonsense, you won't get a penny of dividends from the second house in the next three months."
Uncle Qin felt bitter in his mouth: "Dad, can't you change the way of punishment?"
The clerk was afraid that they would fight, so he asked hurriedly, "Brother Qin, what do you want me to help you with?"
Grandpa Qin glared at Uncle Qin warningly: "Don't say such rude words."
"Dad, this is a serious matter. I am not being ignorant." Uncle Qin said to the clerk, "I want to ask the clerk to come forward and ask the government to prohibit the powerful families from taking advantage of the opportunity to buy up all the ownerless mountains and take the wild medicinal herbs for themselves."
Uncle Qin looked directly at the clerk, his eyes cold and cold: "The clerk should know very well that the powerful families are all jackals. They will grab the meat when they see it, and leave nothing for the common people."
"Shut up, second son. This is the government's business. It's your turn to get involved!" Grandpa Qin was extremely terrified. He was afraid that if this was known, the second son would face imprisonment again. He hurriedly said to the clerk, "Clerk, my second son is possessed by a demon. Just think of him as a dog barking. Don't take it seriously."
Oh, Uncle Qin sneered when he heard this: "Dad, you are such a coward..."
"I was just about to ask the government to temporarily ban the wealthy families from buying mountains." The clerk grabbed Uncle Qin's arm in time to prevent him from saying anything that would hurt the relationship between father and son. He then looked at Grandpa Qin and said, "The wealthy families have enough ways to make money. We really can't let them take away this little bit of meat."
He added, "Don't worry, Mr. Qin. Brother Qin won't leak a single word. You don't have to worry about someone harming your family after the news of the ban on buying the mountain comes out... Your family has done enough. Let us do the rest."
This?
Grandpa Qin's throat choked up, and he stammered for a while, and finally said only one sentence: "Thank you, Guan Shuli... Guan Shuli, please take care of yourself too."
Although everyone had rumors that Madam Guan was quite powerful, Guan Shuli was just a minor clerk and it was very easy for him to die if he tried to stop the powerful families from annexing the city.
Guan Shuli smiled and nodded: "Don't worry, Mr. Qin, my life will be safe no matter what."
No one dared to take it unless the emperor gave the order himself.
Otherwise, if he and his grandmother died, the family that took action would end up dead and the entire clan would be wiped out.
"Brother Qin, can you please help me see how these peonies in my house can be improved so that they can grow better?" Guan Shuli changed the subject.
Uncle Qin looked at them and said, "The only thing that needs to be improved is that you shouldn't spoil them too much. Sometimes, if you take too much care of them, they are more likely to die. Don't disbelieve it, they are just so unreasonable."
Ha, the clerk Guan smiled and nodded: "Yes, I'll make a note of it."
A few people stayed in Baoxia House for a while, but when they saw it was getting dark, they hurriedly said goodbye.
The clerk went to see them off, gave them two gifts in return, and said to Qin Cunquan before leaving: "Go to the government office at 9:00 p.m. tomorrow to register. Don't forget."
"Yes." Qin Cunquan responded and followed Grandpa Qin and the others back to the inn.
After seeing them off, the clerk returned to his room, took a token, and rushed to the county office to talk to County Magistrate Kang about temporarily suspending the purchase of the mountain.
Fortunately, he arrived in time, otherwise General Manager Yan would have bought ten hills overnight.
"Mr. County Magistrate, you have worked so hard that you are still working in the yamen when it is dark." The clerk called out to County Magistrate Feng who was chatting and laughing with Chief Steward Yan.
This didn't sound right to him. County Magistrate Feng was worried. He turned around and looked at the clerk, smiling, "Something happened before he left the yamen, so he was delayed. Didn't the clerk leave the yamen? Why are you back? Is there something urgent to do?"
The clerk nodded: "It is indeed an urgent matter."
Since he had said so, County Magistrate Feng had to respond: "What is the urgent matter? Please tell me quickly, clerk. I will definitely help you."
The clerk said directly, "To prevent the big families from buying up the mountains and cutting off the livelihood of the common people, I have come to the county magistrate to ask him to temporarily ban anyone from buying mountains."
