The Ancient Life of the Doomsday

Chapter 4 Solving Household Registration Issues

The first time I set up a street stall in ancient times went very smoothly. There were a total of 1.8 bed sheets, all of which were [-]-meter-large beds. They were sold for a total of more than two taels of silver, plus fifty apples and three sticks, for a total of three taels of silver.

Three taels sounds like a small amount, but in fact it is already a lot, and this is only the first day. You must know that the average annual income of ordinary people here is only a dozen taels.

For the next two days, Pei Shaorong disguised himself and continued to sell things in the town while inquiring about the household registration status.

Pei Shaorong also bought things in different ways, not daring to keep selling one kind. After going around for a few days, he probably made nearly 50 taels of silver in his hands.

Most of this is earned by tobacco and alcohol. Whether it is modern or ancient, tobacco and alcohol are relatively expensive consumables.

You must know that modern wine has undergone several industrial purifications, and its purity cannot be compared with the crude rice wine of ancient times.

As for cigarettes, although the ancients liked to smoke dry tobacco, it would be nice to have some fresh ones occasionally. Before the end of the world, Pei Shaorong was a rich man, and these were all good things.

Therefore, Pei Shaorong, who earned other people's income for several years in a few days, is not guilty at all. Instead, every time he sells wine, he can't help but beat his chest and feet. What was his weakness in the first place?

After coming to ancient times for a few days, he also discovered that glass is a legendary luxury item, and selling a canned glass bottle costs at least a hundred taels...

After earning more than 50 taels of silver, Pei Shaorong stopped, and he was going to solve the household registration issue first, otherwise if he was found to be of unknown origin, he would have to walk away without food.

Pei Shaorong had already found a solution to the household registration problem. He decided to settle in a village called Linjiang Village near Yueyang Town.

This is all thanks to Aunt Qin, that is, the aunt who set up a stall to buy cloth from him the first day, she is from Linjiang Village, her husband's family name is Qin, so she is called Aunt Qin.

Originally, Pei Shaorong wanted to go directly to the town's government office to settle down, but after inquiring, he found out that the household registration here is a bit similar to the modern urban and rural household registration.

The town belongs to the urban household registration, and there are restrictions. Not everyone can have it, let alone a person with unknown origin like him, he can only get a rural household registration.

But even if it is a rural household registration, it is not easy to have. Outsiders like him must be introduced by acquaintances, otherwise the village chief will not accept people into the village casually.

Pei Shaorong was not familiar with the place where he lived, so where could he find an acquaintance to introduce him? After walking around the town for two days, he met Aunt Qin.

Aunt Qin bought his bed sheets before, but after returning home, she regretted that she bought less. People in the village were envious when they saw her cloth.

Looking at Pei Shaorong's attire at the time, he must have been a passing stranger, thinking that he would probably leave after going to the market and go somewhere else, Aunt Qin felt very regretful, such good and cost-effective fabrics are not always available.

But I didn't expect to see Pei Shaorong again when I came to the town, and Aunt Qin hurriedly stopped him to buy cloth.

After buying, selling, and chatting, Pei Shaorong 'accidentally' revealed that he wanted to settle down near Yueyang Town, and needed an acquaintance to introduce him to settle down. He was willing to thank you with a beautiful printed bed sheet, and Aunt Qin immediately slapped her. down.

"Oh, big brother, go to our Linjiang Village. Our Linjiang Village is a good place. My aunt will be your introducer. My husband and the village chief are still relatives. With my aunt here, you can rest assured to settle down in our village. ……”

Aunt Qin was afraid that he would not want to come to Linjiang Village, so she tried her best to guarantee the ticket. Pei Shaorong was secretly happy, and immediately made an appointment with Aunt Qin to settle down in Linjiang Village.

Before going to the village, Pei Shaorong went to the town to buy some pastries unique to this place, and took out a few catties of pork from the space to give to the village chief.

Anyway, this world is not the end of the world. You can still buy meat after eating it. You don't need to waste money. Twenty cents a catty of pork is considered a foot of bed sheets for him, which is not worth it.

Of course, Pei Shaorong is more interested in consuming the modern feed pork in the space, and then enjoying the ancient pure natural products...

Today is the appointed time, after tidying up the tents for rest, Pei Shaorong went to Yueyang town with dim sum pork.

"Aunt Qin..." Pei Shaorong walked over and showed a simple and honest smile, and handed over the pastry and pork in his hand, "This time it's really troublesome..."

"Oh, big brother, why are you being polite to my aunt..."

While saying polite words, Aunt Qin unceremoniously took the dim sum pork from Pei Shaorong's hand. People in the countryside can't eat any meat for ten days and a half months, not to mention children, adults are greedy.

Holding the thank you gift with a smile, Aunt Qin quickly pulled the strong middle-aged man beside her to introduce her.

"Big brother, this is my head of the family, you can call him Uncle Qin, and you will return to the village with us in a while, and my head of the family will take you to the village chief's house..."

Although Aunt Qin said she would act as an introducer for Pei Shaorong, the man in the family had to come forward for such a big event as settlement.

Pei Shaorong nodded, carrying his things and carrying a big backpack, he followed Aunt Qin and his wife to Linjiang Village.

In ancient times, he is now blind and doesn't understand anything, so it's good to have someone to help.

Linjiang Village is not very far from Yueyang Town. Of course, this is what Aunt Qin said, and Pei Shaorong walked with him for more than two hours before arriving at the entrance of Linjiang Village.

At the entrance of the village, Aunt Qin went home with her things, and Pei Shaorong followed Uncle Qin to the village chief's house.

The road attracted a lot of people to watch. Outsiders don't often come to the village on weekdays, so everyone is naturally very curious about him. Several people even followed them to the village head's house to watch the excitement.

After following Uncle Qin for a while, Pei Shaorong saw a small farmyard. Unlike most houses with straw roofs, the village head's house was pasted with gray tiles.

"Third Uncle..."

As soon as Uncle Qin entered the door, he began to greet him, not the village chief, but uncle. Obviously, as Aunt Qin said, her family is related to the village chief.

"It's Da Zhu..." The village chief sat in the yard smoking a pipe.

"What's the matter with my uncle? Is your mother going to become a Bodhisattva again? Third Uncle told you that your mother is doomed, so leave her alone and hand over all the money she earns to your mother-in-law..."

"..." Uncle Qin smiled without refuting, and then pulled Pei Shaorong behind him to the head of the village.

"Third Uncle, this is Brother Pei. He came from another place. His family members died early and he was fostered in the temple since he was a child. Please help him get a household registration in our village..."

This is the confession made by Pei Shaorong and Aunt Qin's husband and wife a long time ago, saying that it is easier to explain his short hair because he came back from the temple.

The reason why he said he was a monk was that the foster care didn't directly say that he was a monk. Pei Shaorong was also afraid that one day the village would be dumbfounded if he did something like this. He also eats meat. Monks don't eat meat, but he wants to eat it.

Otherwise, with his body, hair and skin pointing at the ancient times of his parents, his short hair would be enough for him to be burned ten times.

Seeing the village chief's gaze, Pei Shaorong immediately put the thing in his hand, "Hello village chief, my name is Pei Shaorong..."

"Where's your document?" The village head put down the pipe and stood up.

Where did I have this thing? Pei Shaorong shook his head honestly, "When I was traveling down the mountain, I met a bandit and lost everything..."

"Yeah, Brother Pei was unlucky. He met the bastard in the mountain stream and lost a lot of things. Third uncle, didn't you say that there are few people in our village? You can let Brother Pei fall into our village. If you want If you don't agree, my mother-in-law will scold me for being useless later..."

Before coming here, Aunt Qin had sternly confessed to herself because of Pei Shaorong's printed sheets, if she didn't get things done, she would sleep in the woodshed when she got home.

Uncle Qin is well-known in the village to be afraid of his wife and mother. He is straightforward and doesn't know how to beat around the bush, so he speaks anxiously.

"Okay, okay, look at your worthless appearance, come with me..."

The village took a puff of dry tobacco, looked at Uncle Qin with hatred, and then motioned for the two to follow into the house.

The matter of household registration is a problem for Pei Shaorong, but it is not a problem for the village chief. Anyway, how many people in the village and how they are settled are all reported by him.

With Uncle Qin's relationship, the household registration problem surrounding Pei Shaorong was easily solved. With the document representing his identity, Pei Shaorong finally heaved a sigh of relief, and finally he didn't have to worry about being punished that day... ...

Putting the pork dim sum on the village chief's table, Pei Shaorong took out a bunch of copper coins from his pocket and stuffed them into the village chief's hand before he left in a hurry.

"Village chief, is there any ready-made vacant house in the village? I want to buy it..." Once you have the status, you have to settle for accommodation. You can't just sleep in a tent and squat in the wild.

"There are vacant houses, just the house of Tian's family. His family has moved to the town. The deed of the house has not been sold. It has been empty for many years. You need to pay you three pennies, but the roof needs to be repaired before you can live in it." , you have to pay for it yourself..."

One tael of silver = 1500 wen = one and a half pennies, and three taels of silver is two taels of silver. It is very cheap to buy a house.

"Brother Pei, I know that house, it is very strong, but it has been unoccupied for a long time, the roof is leaking, and the money is about the same..." Uncle Qin chimed in.

"Okay, that's the house!"

Pei Shaorong nodded. Uncle Qin is an honest man. He said that it is not bad. It should be about the same. You can buy a house for three pennies, which is very cost-effective. .

After obtaining the house deed with the village chief and giving the money, Pei Shaorong left with Uncle Qin back to his house.

Uncle Qin said that until the roof of the house is repaired, he can temporarily live in his house instead of sleeping in the wild, so Pei Shaorong is naturally very willing.

With his identity document and house deed in hand, Pei Shaorong let out a sigh of relief again. He was finally able to settle down in this ancient world openly, feeling very happy...
