Chapter 1748: Taking advantage of the situation
Gu Jinli was able to buy a lot of land for houses and shops.
She also told Kuang and Ji Zhenniang, and they also bought some... Even though they are eating grain porridge now, after the bandits were suppressed in Bailang Mountain, several families became very rich and had money to buy houses and land.
Because of this, as soon as Ji Zhenniang and Xie Cheng entered the courtyard, Grandma Xie came to report that Erqing was here.
Erqing came to deliver a message. After seeing Ji Zhenniang, he told Gu Jinli's instructions: "Mrs. Xie, my wife said that if you have a house deed that has not been registered at the Yamen, find it now and give it to Gao Gao. Madam, she will go to the Yamen in person to document all the property deeds."
Its so urgent, but what happened? Ji Zhenniang asked.
Erqing: "My wife said that this matter should be settled as soon as possible to avoid any changes."
The lady said that wealthy families and high-ranking officials are not short of money, and they like to buy houses and land. In order to prevent the accompanying adults from using their power to **** houses and land, they had better get the house and land deeds first.
Mrs. Gao was deeply convinced and agreed to come forward to handle this matter.
She was sent to inform Ji Zhenniang and the others to quickly pick up the property deed that was to be passed.
"My wife also told me that if there is a house, shop or land that I want to buy but has not yet bought, it is best to buy it today and tomorrow."
Xie Cheng also asked: "If Zhenniang wants to buy a farm, tell me and I will go and do it for you."
Ji Zhenniang shook her head and said with a bit of disgust: "There is war in the northwest, and the fields are thin. I feel that I have lost money on the ones I bought earlier, so I won't buy them."
If Gu Jinli and the others hadn't bought it, she thought what if Gu Jinli and the others made a profit if she didn't buy it, so she followed suit.
He then said, "Thank you, mama. Go and get the deeds for the houses, shops and fields."
Yes. Grandma Xie hurriedly went to find it.
Erqing said goodbye and left.
Xie Cheng held Ji Zhenniang's hand and told her in detail that she should be careful in her words and deeds. If she had anything to say, wait until he came back. The two of them hid in the house and said, "We can't be like this again. On the way, you said something dissatisfied with the emperor. Walls have ears, so people will inevitably listen to them. Even the servants at home are not allowed to say too much. The servants will inevitably have bad words. If they say it out, they will be confiscated and beheaded. .
After speaking, he saw Ji Zhenniang pursed her lips and became displeased, and coaxed her: "I want to grow old with Zhenniang and give her honor, so while I am working hard, I also want Zhenniang to be safe."
If you die, you can no longer be the generals wife.
After hearing this, Ji Zhenniang lost her anger and said shyly and proudly: "My husband is right, I won't talk nonsense."
Xie Cheng was afraid that she would get carried away, so after explaining a few more words, he said: "The reward team from Beijing is here. The soldiers at the post station outside the city must be extremely happy. I will go out with Uncle Niu and beat them to prevent them from talking." No protection, causing trouble for everyone.
"Mr. Xie, let's go." Ji Zhenniang sent Xie Cheng out, and after Grandma Xie brought the deed, they went to Gao Lei's yard together.
The Kuang family, Han family, Lu family, Guo Daming's daughter-in-law and others all came to deliver the deed.
Seeing this, Ji Zhenniang quickly picked up her skirt and ran, rushing into the house. When she saw Gu Jinli, she handed the box containing the deed to Gu Jinli: "Here you go, pass it on with your family."
Aunt Lei likes Gu Jinli the most, and she will be the first to submit the deed. If she can give her her own deed, she will be the second to submit.
He quickly turned around and saluted Gao Lei respectfully: "I've seen Aunt Lei. The deed has expired. I'm sorry to bother you."
Gao Lei snorted coldly, and did not care about her hurrying in. Instead, he warned: "Someone is coming to the capital. Be more honest recently and stop talking nonsense. If you cause trouble to everyone, I want you to look good!"
Ji Zhenniang shivered and quickly promised: "I know, I won't dare to talk nonsense."
Gao Lei didn't say anything and stared at Ji Zhenniang for a while. After she got scared, she looked away.
After collecting all the deeds, Gao Lei took Peng Wen and others to the government office.
When Magistrate Hao and others learned that the emperor's reward team was approaching Xing'an Prefecture, they were very excited and anxious, and immediately got busy to prevent something going wrong tomorrow.
It happened that some smart people in the city came to the Yamen with their teeth and various deeds, and wanted to pass the red deed, blocking the main gate of the Yamen. Have you ever seen the government office busy?
Qi Tongzhi asked Shi Bantou to drive people away.
"I want to come back next month to get the red contract. The prefect is not free recently, so please go back!" Shi Bantou got the order and led the government officials to stop them.
"Shi Bantou, be accommodating. It's just a matter of time and it will be over soon." The guys refused to leave and gave Shi Bantou and the others money.
But Shi Bantou refused to accept them and asked the government officials to drive them away with sticks. Those whose backers were not strong enough were all beaten away.
Gao Lei was not stopped and entered through the corner gate of the Yamen. He went to see Magistrate Hao and told him that he wanted to file the deed.
The Lei family's caravan has helped the city a lot, so Magistrate Hao will naturally give this face and ask Master Shuqi to take the Gao Lei family to handle it.
But the deeds that Gao Lei brought were quite large, and it took more than an hour to complete.
As soon as it was done, the servants of the Gu family sent two more land deeds, and they went through a lot of trouble.
Qi Tongzhi was shocked when he heard this. After going to the official's office to inquire, he learned that 90% of the deeds brought by Gao Lei belonged to Gu Jinli, Kuang, Ji and other women. He immediately felt sour and ran to tell Magistrate Hao: "Your Excellency, did they buy too much land, houses, shops, and houses? And where did they get the money?"
Zhifu Hao was busy receiving people from the capital. Hearing this, he raised his head and looked at Qi Tongzhi.
This Qi Tongzhi is a bit gossipy.
Zhifu Hao asked in a nonchalant manner: "Is it much?"
Not only are there too many, they also take advantage of them to rob them!
Qi Tongzhi said this in a cryptic way.
Magistrate Hao sneered: "How many decent people do this kind of thing?"
This kind of respectable family refers to the aristocratic families and high-ranking officials who like to take advantage of the chaos to buy land and houses.
Qi Tongzhi choked and said hurriedly: "I am a low-ranking official."
It was because I still had official business to attend to, so I hurriedly left.
When Gao Lei returned to the other courtyard, it was already evening. Manager Ruan sent people to bring food and meat. Pigs and sheep were being slaughtered in the other courtyard, and it was very lively.
Hearing this lively voice, Gao Lei was very happy and asked Peng Wen to send the red deeds in exchange to each family.
As for Gu Jinlis family, they are in no hurry to give it away.
That girl said that she and Sanlang would come over to her for a reunion dinner in the evening.
How did you know that Xie Cheng was grateful to Gao Lei for teaching Ji Zhenniang and brought Ji Zhenniang with him during dinner.
Ji Zhenniang: "Aunt Lei, let's have dinner with you."
Gao Lei was a little annoyed when he saw her, and Ji Zhenniang was a busy person, so with her around, the meal would be somewhat troublesome.
Sure enough, Gao Lei was angered by Ji Zhenniang again at the banquet.
However, she is still happy in her heart. People love to be lively when they are old, and its not that she really doesnt want to see Ji Zhenniang. If she really doesnt, she wont teach her.
After a few people laughed and ate, they went back to rest. The next day, the whole city was anxiously waiting for the arrival of the emperor's reward team.
Many people ran to the city gate to watch the excitement. They waited from morning to afternoon until the reward team finally arrived.
"Come, come, the emperor's reward team is here, there are so many carriages, you can't see the end!" A good person from a good family rode to the city more than ten miles away and waited. After seeing the reward team, he immediately rode back to report the first place. hand message.
